Chapter 460 – The Assassination Attempt On Seeker

Zeraphine was still rushing towards the expanding space of the Dreamscape. She knew that releasing her soul was dangerous as Garenjazz was one of the stronger Soul Wielding Aragarians among Presiders.

"Move! Damn it!" Zeraphine roared. She had never felt so helpless even as she poured out all the techs and abilities she had in her Throne and body. Her Soul Wielding was different from Presiders that even Principals were curious about. But because of her uniqueness, she had no path or model to follow. And this ability was even sealed by the Principals.

And now, her desperation went past its limits. She was crying as she tried to move closer. Several seconds had passed, but she knew that time in the dreamworld passed differently.

Suddenly, the entire Dreamscape collapsed, and Zeraphine slammed hard onto the throne of Garenjazz.

BANG!

Suddenly, Garenjazz grabbed her by the nape.

Great fear emerged out of Zeraphine. Suddenly, Garenjazz was donning her Exoskeleton famous among Presiders as the Bloodsoaked Survivor for how he emerged out of the Presider Wars. It had been a long time since Garenjazz had been angry.

"Calm down, you little brat! You made a scratch on my Throne!" Garenjazz complained.

It was bizarre how Garenjazz could touch Zeraphine directly on her neck. His hands bypassed the unassailable materials of the Throne and her suit. And yet, when Garenjazz reached out, his hands directly chocked Zeraphine.

It was the first time that Zeraphine thought she would die. 

"Tsk. You need to strengthen up your mental fortitude, Princess." Garenjazz threw Zeraphine back.

"Zeraphine. As you can see, your little boyfriend is alright." Garenjazz also dropped Seeker on the ground.

The moment he fell, Seeker woke up.

He immediately sprang up and began to awaken his Unlocking and wield power in his body.

"That was an impressive trick, kid. How many souls are there in you? You seemed highly favored by your father."

Seeker didn\'t say anything but glare at Garenjazz, and his entire clothes were slowly burning as his body was releasing immense heat.

"Hmm? Dalisay tech? But it\'s burning you for real. Relax, kid. I\'m not here to fight. I already said what I needed to say inside that dream world. My regards to your grandmother if you see her. Pay her a visit, will you?" 

"Maybe I really should. It feels degrading coming from an alien-like you." Seeker gazed cautiously at Garenjazz.

"Alien? You\'re like me, kid. Anyway, just remember what I said about this girl\'s dad. If you think I\'m strong, his dad only needs to lift a finger to kill me. I\'m off." Garenjazz suddenly disappeared without warning.

Seeker was shocked at what had happened.

Zeraphine rushed towards Seeker.

"Are you alright?"

"Yeah… He appeared in my dream, but my dad sent my grandmother."

"Your… Grandmother?"

"I was surprised too. Erm… Zeraphine… I need to go."

"I understand. Your dad must be calling you. I have to go anyway. I need to talk to the other Presiders."

"Will you be alright going alone?"

"I don\'t think they would attack me right now. Besides, Garenjazz is here. He\'s my-"

"Your ward. He told me. I guess I won\'t have to be afraid of you being ambushed with that guy around. You\'re a Prime\'s daughter?"

"Yes. It\'s complicated."

"I\'m sure it is…" Seeker sighed.

The pair became silent. Seeker didn\'t ask any questions, and Zeraphine couldn\'t say anything more.

"I have to go, Zeek. I\'ll try to hurry up and get my main body quickly. What about you?"

"I\'m not sure if we can see each other again tomorrow. My father should be called an important meeting because of what happened. There were supposed to be people guarding me around here."

"Garenjazz is probably the strongest Presider on Earth. Your dad… must have underestimated him."

"I hope that\'s not the case… That Garenjazz fellow sounded like he lost. But now, I don\'t know." Seeker couldn\'t help but sense that something had happened as Garenjazz was not as forceful as expected. 

"I\'ll go ahead, Zeek. Please be careful." Zeraphine wiped Seeker\'s face and couldn\'t help but move down.

"Woah! Zeraphine! I told you! If we were to kiss, I want it to be with your real body. Since you\'ll be freeing this girl, it feels wrong to abuse her body like this."

"Fine. You\'re no fun." Zeraphine frowned.

"No fun? If I let you kiss me, I\'d probably be plagued with you getting jealous over this Lara for the remainder of my life! You\'d be asking me useless questions like, \'do you still think of me in her body?\' Like hell, I\'m allowing that!" 

Zeraphine chuckled.

"Oh! You caught me! I was planning to use that as an excuse to win arguments and throw out random tantrums as normal couples do." Zeraphine smiled and began to walk out of the room.

"Hey, Zeraphine."

"Hm?"

"We may not be a normal couple… But my heart will always be in the right place for you." Seeker smiled.

Zeraphine smiled back and nodded. As she moved out, her eyes began to tear up as she was secretly crying in joy from Seeker\'s words. 

The moment she left the room, Zeraphine noticed that her body was still trembling from fear. It was this fear that prodded her to kiss Seeker.

"I have to get stronger. The Presider Wars could easily be the end of me and Zeek! I must get stronger to protect us!"

Back inside the room…

"Lynd." Seeker immediately called out.

"I know. That was scary. That Presider could kill any of us!"

"We underestimated Garenjazz. Is Alean there?"

"Yes. She says that we are still holding the momentum of the battle and that Zone is still on our side. She doesn\'t understand why that is, though."

"Alright. Let\'s- oh, for crying out loud! I forgot about this brat!" Seeker cursed as a figure appeared before him.

A person moved through the walls and was wielding a large sword.

"Seeker Carlean! I am here to assassinate you!"

"Yeah… I don\'t think you understand the concept of assassination."

"What have you done to Kristine?" Jake shouted in anger.

This was the chance of a lifetime. He had been secretly spying on Seeker and knew that a woman known as Zeraphine was with him. What shocked him was that the woman commanded a strange tech similar to the Rules of the WGP. As the days passed, he kept spying on this woman called Zeraphine, who used her Throne on a few occasions and even shot several attacks at him at one point.

Jake had no choice but to keep his distance from this woman and believed that this woman was Seeker\'s bodyguard.

So Jake waited for the right moment. Then, finally, he saw Kristine leave.

"Jake. I don\'t have time for this!" Seeker cursed.

Jake was stunned that Seeker knew his name.

"You…! You know about me? Then you know about Kristine! Where is she?!"

"Lynd. I thought Cliff was keeping an eye on this kid."

"Cliff says the following… Oh right. I forgot to report this. But when you made me fight the werewolf, I might have lost track of Jake." Lynd chuckled.

"That petty little fool!" Seeker growled back at Lynd.

"Whatever, Zeek. You\'ve been making Cliff\'s life a living hell since you took him in. I\'d say it\'s time for a little comeback. Remember, you can\'t show powers beyond Inhuman Proficient. Otherwise, those other Presiders will come looking!" Lynd reminded.

"I freakin\' know. You guys don\'t have any plans to help me?!"

"Help you? The great Seeker Carlean? Besides, your grandma baked cookies. It would be rude of us to leave now."

"So you guys are with my grandma… You knew the whole spying thing?"

"Sort of. There\'s still a lot your not telling us, after all. Oh. And I\'m sure you know this, but this guy is so mad that he\'s the closest thing we have right now to witnessing how Ranked Heroes are born. Arthur\'s been experimenting on him after all. So don\'t forget to push his rage as high as you can. Remember, the stronger he becomes, the better we can tread or Paths on him!" Lynd answered. 

"Seeker! You made Kristine\'s life a living hell!" Jake roared again as Seeker ignored him.

"Kristine Cythia? You mean LordChokeMeSenpai? I\'m done with her. But I won\'t give her to you for free. You have to pay the top price if you want to buy her body. Let\'s see. The last buyer was the president of South America. I\'ll give you the same price as I did with him. Contact my agent, though. I don\'t know the exact rate." Seeker turned around and walked away.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?! Where is she?!"

"You have to wait. She still has a few clients lined up." Seeker shrugged.

"DIE!" In his rage, Jake charged at Seeker with a sword.

Seeker suddenly evaded the attack, and with a swift speed, he countered and kicked Jake.

But his legs passed through Jake. 

Jake stabbed the sword down on Seeker.

"Realm." Seeker harnessed the energy of his Realm.

BANG!

It was as if a shotgun was shot on Jake\'s abdomen.

Jake was thrown back and crashed on the wall. He spat out a mouthful of blood and was horrified how Seeker managed to hurt or touch him in his ghost-like form.

"Oh? That\'s a highly classified weapon in Britain!" Seeker noticed the sword that Jake was using. The metal was so strange. It looked normal, but it gave off strange energy.

"Is that the lost Project Excalibur of New Great Britain? We\'ve been looking for that tech for a while! You\'re an amazing thief! You must have stolen it from a secret Pioneer facility. So it seems you have your use after all." Seeker smiled.

Jake stood up and held the blade and strange orange lightning began to course around the sword. The energy was so unique that it was similar to Origin energy. It was clearly an attempt to imitate Universe Energy.

"Die!" Jake charged towards Seeker, who had a look of anticipation.
