613  Chaos in the Orbital

Chaos had occurred as many Presiders demanded answers from Herasha.

The traces of the Earthlings were nowhere to be found as the broadcast on the ship was revealed to

Various battles erupted above the Outer Crust of the Orbital while the armies of various Presiders were all being organized to attack.

The first to act among the Presiders was Renkerdis.

A dark, chilling power appeared as Renkerdis summoned his power.

A former Principal that had died and weakened, losing many of his body, had caused him to fall to the level of a Presider. But killing Tiana allowed him to regain a portion of his power. So the Necromancer's power in a wraith was not only compatible, but it also gave him a huge boost!

In the deep chamber where Renkerdis made his home in the second layer of the core, he was terrified at the prospect that the Earthlings had arrived.

"Those fools! I had seen the power of these humans from the fallen souls of many when I left Earth! They cannot underestimate them!" Renkerdis cursed as his power was made ready to attack.

Renkerdis's actions were the tipping point that would alter the future that Dormin saw. But he could do nothing as the laws forbid him from attacking Renkerdis.

Dormin watched from his chamber as the spell of Renkerdis was complete.

Numerous malevolent spirits of his creations, wild and impure, manifestations of ill will, grudges, and anger, were harnessed and sent all over the Orbital.

"...That brat!" Dormin cursed as he saw the spell spread all over the Orbital. He did not understand what had happened and why he couldn't see the future. But he had guessed that this event would change the future.

Renkerdis's soul appeared on many parts of the Orbital. His soul took over the souls of many through forced possession. But this spell was costly, and so, Renkerdis possessed the weaker souls.

A Pioneer sat and watched the feeds of the security camera. But all of a sudden, his soul was captured by Renkerdis.

His companion watched with him, and suddenly, the Pioneer stood up and retrieved a weapon.

BANG! BANG!

Two shots to the head.

The Pioneer shot his companion and shot himself as well.

As they died, their dead bodies were easier to possess.

In areas where Pioneers practiced memorializing the dead, the corpses rose and began to attack.

"Arise! Arise and find them!" Renkerdis commanded.

Renkerdis's actions were seen by numerous Presiders and prepared to repel it.

But many Presiders were suddenly experiencing an attack as Renkerdis did his best to find the Earthlings.

"Renkerdis!" A voice cried out as human-shaped lighting bolted out and hovered over Renkerdis's place.

"What is the meaning of this?!" Marrho demanded.

"You idiots! You who think Earth is weak! The Earthlings are here! How do you think they killed everyone?! They were spies and could infiltrate all forces! I am doing you all a favor to find them!" Renkerdis shouted back.

"We'll find them ourselves! So pull back your attack!"

"Stop your foolishness in my region as well." Another voice was heard as a man with three heads and seven wings appeared. His form was peering from the dimensions he was hiding and revealing his true form.

"Render! You don't have a base in the three dimensions!"

"The cities on Sector six of the inner layers are mine. Remove your power from it."

Renkerdis closed his eyes.

His attacks stop from those two. But the truth was, he had already confirmed what he needed to. Seeker and his team were not in these two places. But as Renkerdis connected with his soul, he realized in the few seconds he talked to the two Harsha and another Presider had already cleared and destroyed the wandering wraiths he sent.

"Haresha is expected. But to think Porrelom would be this strong..." Renkerdis glanced at the two.

"It is done. Go out and find him."

"They will not assassinate me." Render frowned.

"Oh? Like they did to Crostfree, isn't that right, Marrho? Wasn't that Presider one of the best souls that your true form crafted? And he died by Pridgeon's hand! They won't have to assassinate you! They trick others into doing it for them. That's how we lost on Earth. Do not be so arrogant to think that they cannot do it here!" Renkerdis shouted back, and his soul began to gather and enclose the region around them with a thick mist.

The two left, but Render had a surprised expression. He did not know about Crostfree. But if a Presider incarnation of that Prime Defiant was killed, then it would be a different thing.

With their retreat, the group also made their scans to search for Seeker's team.

The next day, the chaos of Renkerdis's curse affected all Presiders.

Many of the Presiders took the actions of Renkerdis as an act of war and began to marshal a force to fight Renkerdis. Several Presiders agreed to attack together and not fight it all out. Soul bonds were made. Many even claimed that Renkerdis was working with the Earthlings!

He was considered a weak Presider as many had not seen him fight during the Presider War.

Three Presider teams gathered before the misty fortress.

The battle lasted half a day, and those who attacked them were forced to retreat in a great battle in the second layer of the Orbital's core.

A grand battle lay waste to many Pioneers as the power of Renkerdis to create wraiths and command those that die confused the army. Renkerdis didn't even seem to have taken significant losses!

Pioneers were killed in an unknown manner, and those that died inside ships, Exoskeletons, and Gargantuants started to kill their own!

The battle terrified many, and Renkerdis was considered the fifth among the 'Presider Kings.'

Haresha, the strongest of the five, was silent and showed no movements after the revelation.

Marrho and Render actively searched for the Earthlings. The two were considered to be of equal power, but Marrho was believed to be the stronger one.

Massive sweeping scans made by the strongest Presiders, including Marrho and Render, rippled out from the inner place of the ship.

As these two Presiders used Universe Energy that altered the fabric of reality within the Orbital, and many launched ranged attacks from them.

Among the most eccentric reactions was that of who was considered the fourth strongest among the Presider Kings. This was the same man that surprised Renkerdis. Porrelom the Clown Presider released another broadcast all over the Orbital demanding Vender to continue with the story, which was cut short when many Presiders attacked the abandoned fortress.

He even threatened that those who would attack or destroy a broadcasting station would receive his retaliation and wasn't afraid if it was even Marrho or Render.

On the fourth day since Vender's broadcast, another broadcast was issued.

"The continuation to the anticipated tale... of Twilight of the Stars! When we last, saw Bella and Vender, Bella discovered Vender's secret past. But even then, she could not bring herself to tell the order. Vender had saved her life, but with it, Vender unknowingly claimed Bella's heart..." Vender's voice began.

In the secret fortress of Presider Inklabal, the tortured body of Inklabal remained as Lennox continued to electrocute him. When Harker, Lowengren, and Vender attacked his fortress, he made orders to retreat. But strangely, a series of bad luck occurred, and with Harker and Lowengren easily infiltrating the place, he was captured.

Surrounding him was Seeker and all those from Earth, along with Cecilia.

They had just tortured him, and he revealed everything he knew.

"...Let's test it out. If Inklabal's story is true, then Vender's power has evolved and could now bestow bad luck. With our new arrangements, the broadcasting device would be very difficult to track, and only the Top-Tiers among Presiders could find it hidden in the Void Realm. But if it's true, keeping this broadcast is vital to limit Prince Dormin's ability to see the future!" Seeker explained.

"But what now? What's our next target?" Guinevere asked.

"We have to slow down this Orbital. The longer they stay in space, the bigger battles we can cause."

"That is... among the future that Dormin saw. And I have one where you do succeed." Cecilia answered.

"Then let's do that. We follow the plan but, at the same time, find an equal opposing act that could derail whatever advantage Dormin will have over us... Cecilia, in this future, other than Haresha, who is set to grow stronger and will survive and be on Earth." Lowngren turned and asked.

"This future plan involves facing Render. I can't get a clear picture. Principal Dormin blocked many parts of this vision but only allowed me to see the end. But in this future on Earth, I see Presider Stevos fighting against Lennox."

"Then he'll be our target. I'll infiltrate Stevos and try to rise in the ranks among his men. And just when Dormin's vision will come true, I'll kill him and take over his army!" Lowengren vowed.
