618  Porrelom’s Strength

Haresha's original power of Horoscope allowed her to see beyond the three dimensions. But soon, she noticed one thing many couldn't understand or divine among Presiders. Principals would never be so open, and no one within Aragar had developed the power of Horoscope. She would be the first.

The power was very random, but it always gave Haresha an edge over many. With this, she led her army to fight against Mid-Tiers and Top-Tiers and gained great benefits. Two Presiders had fallen, and their thrones and Nefilus Suits were captured by her and were being studied. While it would have been impossible for most, she could, through Horoscope and acquire several of the most useful techs and powers these Presiders have.

It was rumored that she was a Devourer like the Pig Five, but in reality, she could draw out the power depending on the formation of the stars. She named her power the Zodiac Wielder; with it, she would wield the power of the Presiders she slew who matched the Zodiac signs.

Ninalet had served Presider Haresha and had witnessed her ascension. Haresha knew this, but once saw in her Horoscope how she needed to let go of Ninalet. In truth, she didn't want to. But the path was clear, and Haresha pretended to be harsh.

Here, she found the reason. For her to stand her ground, convince Gemini, and have her time with Pisces, she needed to let Ninalet go. Now Ninalet would be the most vital piece to help her keep her place among the Earthlings!

"So what is it, exactly? Is Porrelom strong, or is he weak?" Seeker asked.

Ninalet had a scared expression as Cecila was glaring at her.

"She's lying. Either that or she is uninformed. Porrelom is not strong! How dare you argue with me, Pioneer! And you! What lies do you spout that it was Porrelom who attacked Vender? I was here, and I didn't see anything!"

"Cecilia, calm your Throne. Whatever rankings or Caste system you had here is not of my concern. I would value both your inputs." Seeker frowned.

"God bless democracy." Lourca laughed.

"Let's analyze this one at a time. First, tell us what you know and what you mean by Porrelom being strong." Seeker spoke to Ninalet.

"Presider Haresha. She always avoided Porrelom." Ninalet revealed.

"How would you know?" Cecilia immediately asks.

"I served Presider Haresha. I was one of her top Pioneers."

"...She's hiding something. Something against Cecilia." Lowengren arrived and made a comment.

"Right." Lynd nodded.

Ninalet turned red.

"...It was you! Were you the ones who destroyed my B-Ver?!"

"...I'm hoping I didn't hear beaver, the earthly animal often used as a sexual innuendo of women's private parts." Seeker frowned.

"My Bio-Virtual Energy Resonator! It was a powerful Throne! I had devoured one other who used this and gained his full power! With it, I could create beings of energy and power according to my dreams! If my techs allowed it, I could grant these beings special powers!"

"Ah... B-Ver. Now I understand." Seeker was relieved that Ninalet didn't destroy Cecilia's beaver but only destroyed some technology. It would have been awkward for Ninalet and Cecilia to work together if it was the former.

"That power sounds like the same one that Garenjazz had in that dream world when he dreamt about the strange beings we fought. It was sort of cool." Lynd recalled.

"Yeah. I bet Garenjazz was working towards gaining this power. That otaku really had some strange imaginations." Seeker agreed.

"Focus. Ninalet, are you responsible for wrecking Cecilia's B-Ver?" Lennox directed the conversation.

"...Yes."

"...Still sounds wrong." Meryl sighed.

"Prove it." Cecilia charged.

"You were fighting Presider Plake, who suddenly betrayed you and wanted to eat you. You had faced Marrho's fight and rushed to help him. You were betrayed, and you fought. Amid the battle, Presider Haresha told us to grab our weapons quickly. We managed to redirect another Presider's attack, and it destroyed the secondary Throne that followed you." Ninalet recounted.

"...So it was you. Fine. If you were that Presider, then I shall lend an ear to what you have to say. However, before that, let me voice my reasoning. Presider Porrelom is not found among the future Presiders I see in Dormin's future. He dies in a very uninteresting manner. From my perspective, he was a Presider that simply survived because no one cared to attack him. He is eccentric, bizarre, and frankly a waste of resources to attack."

Seeker turned to the rest.

"Does that sound familiar?"

"Vender all the way," Cliff answered.

"Then he's strong." Lowengren had a serious expression.

"Can someone explain to me why that is considered strong?" Cecilia asked.

"Vender's power, and perhaps the reason why Haresha is afraid of Porrelom is that she can't see or perceive what Porrelom is. We've already told you that Haresha's power is an ability to peer out of the three dimensions and see something we can't. We don't know what or how... But that's her power. Porrelom survives a Presider war because he's eccentric? Come on. That's a lousy excuse. It's his power. He survives because whatever reason made you not interested in him or underestimated him is the very power that he holds. Think logically. Would you attack and kill a Presider no matter how weak he is?"

"...I would. Cecilia answered.

"So why didn't you?" Seeker challenged.

Cecilia had no answer.

"From how it sounds, Porrelom has a power similar to Vender. He can disrupt the flow. We have seen the full potential of Vender's power, and it is this very power that caused Principal Dormin to lose sight of the future. They are beings that can stop the flow of the future. Think chaos made human. Think of them as beings that randomize the dimensions."

"An entity of Murphy's Law." Gardo shivered as he recalled his adventures with Vender and how it always turned terrible.

"Yes. I have a feeling that Dormin saw things differently. Porrelom has such a power that makes him appear so unremarkable yet at the same time very threatening to someone like Haresha who has the ability to peer out of the dimensions and possibly see the future like Principal Dormin." Lennox explained.

"Random power? That's very hard to imagine." Cecilia asked.

"All we can do is make guesses." Seeker sighed.

Haresha was quiet, but her thoughts were racing. She couldn't understand Porrelom's power, but with the hints being spoken out, she had realized something.

"Guess." The voice of Haresha spoke out once more.

"Is it possible that those were his powers?" Haresha began to think out loud.

"Guess?"

Haresha had to be careful. She had seen Lowengren's ability to discern lies and believed it could have been some similar power. She had to speak the truth.

"I heard him... say it always. Presider Porrelom was very open and weird. And every time he would fight, he would make... guesses. Before I was blown away and met you, I saw them all. Presider Renkerdis. Presider Marrho. Even Presider Haresha was there! They were all talking about what Presider Porrelom was doing. He guessed he had found the place where the power affecting them was. Something about everyone having nothing and how they were all... Fourth Dimension Clairvoyants."

"That term! Garenjazz told me about that. So this was what he was classified to be!" Seeker recalled his private talks with Garenjazz when they had him imprisoned.

"I get it. All those Presiders went to that place because the broadcast of Vender affected them all!" Lowengren exclaimed.

"I take it she's telling the truth?" Rai asked suspiciously and asked Lowengren.

"Yeah. This Pioneer is telling the truth. What's your name?" Lowengren asked.

Haresha then spoke truthfully and used her real name. The Babelian name she had.

"Iezebel."

At that moment, Seeker gave Haresha a strange look. But Seeker did not say anything.

Lennox and Rai also had strange flashes in their eyes, but Lowengren lied and kept talking, appearing to be not suspicious. Haresha was weak and only had her focus on Lowengren and did not notice the expressions of the rest.

"Alright, Iezebel. Where were you with Porrelom?" Lowengren asked.

"We were at a small shack in the middle of nowhere," Haresha answered truthfully.

"That place! That's where we left Vender's broadcast!" Seeker realized it.

"What happened?" Lowengren asked.

"Presider Porrelom was listening to that cheesy broadcast. I felt very irritated."

"We know. But carry on with your tale."

"Presider Render arrived. They were talking about it. While they were talking, I was... I was dying. Then I was also blown into a weird world and ended up on the ground until you found me. I thought I was dead." Haresha explained. She spoke truthfully as she had teleported into a strange realm where the stars would guide her.

"Alright. We have enough evidence. We have to act swiftly. We broadcast with Cecilia's tools and send a message to Earth. We divide our teams into two. One will move to Render and the other to Porrelom!" Seeker decided.
