Chapter 589 Soul Imputation



The time travel of Seeker Carlean was the greatest secret of the Unlocked Armies. Seeker had chosen to reveal himself to a chosen group.

And while some of them were made out of his childish tendencies, the secret was later guarded when Arthur and Lennox became involved.

Seeker was banned from flapping his flappy mouth to tell anyone about this secret.

Many theories and leaks were made within the army to stop others from figuring this secret out.

But what everyone feared was that if an Aragarian found out. The rippling effect of this knowledge being handed over to the aliens would invite disasters.

Even now that the Presiders were gone, this information could draw attention and even call out the powerful members of the alien race.

Time travel altered the dimensions in ways that the Unlocked could not imagine.

Dimensional Upholding was the power to wield the dimensions. Dimensional Purging was recreating it. But to time travel and reverse time would be Dimensional Transcendence.

The very person of Seeker was the single missing piece that would alter the past and fulfill many gaps.

Seeker\'s return in knowledge would only have given the group a way to reach Presider level at most.

But many other World Champions had appeared because of the Way and the Truth working together! Overcomers were expected to rise from the Ranked Heroes who had fought!

And yet, Alean spoke of it.

Because of being disconnected from Kristine, Zeraphine\'s quick eyes could see everyone\'s reaction and was stunned.

"Future? Seeker is... from the future? Impossible..."

"Yes. An alternate future. And what\'s impossible for people like Primes and Principals? Don\'t Principals have the power to alter time?"

"Not in this way. Their powers can alter and change minor things and force the flow of things to follow a certain future. Primes control numerous timelines, and they are all battling a strange and unimaginable battle in their bid to be the next Primordials! But sending someone to the past and creating such drastic change?! Impossible! The Primes would have felt it!"

"Well, we don\'t know how the Lost Primordial did it, but his defeat was necessary. So you call him the Lost Primordial, but because he fled in defeat to Earth. And everyone lowered their guard, did they?"

Zeraphine frowned.

"His defeat was intentional?"

"I feel that way. But, of course, he couldn\'t have won if he had fought on. So he might have sought another way and tweaked his fate or whatnot. But in any case, whatever he did allow Seeker to be transported back in time, altering the future. Yet, it\'s not enough at this stage to ensure our victory. So I will set you the truth of your alternate lives and set you free."

"I\'m really not so sure about your plan, Miss Alean." Kristine sighed.

"The truth, I am not sure as well. But we need something to alter the course of the battle. And we don\'t have anything."

"How is she the answer? She betrayed us in the last timeline. And that betrayal costs us a lot! Seeker nearly lost his squadron, and her betrayal came at a very critical moment!"

"Now imagine that happening to the Aragarians." Alean countered.

"...But can she do that? Besides, will she even be welcomed? So she was captured and found a way to be free even when Garenjazz can\'t?"

"Based on what Garenjazz told us, Zeraphine\'s the daughter of a Prime. She is someone that the Principal won\'t dare kill. She will be among them. Garenjazz told us that there is something peculiar about Zeraphine. As the daughter of a Prime when it had already transcended dimensions, it was impossible. It\'s like the Holy Spirit causing Mary to bear Jesus. Two beings of different dimensions have merged. And this Zeraphine is the offspring of such an event. She revealed some of her powers in that battle. She\'s skilled with her soul energy that surpasses even Nogard\'s path. We could make up something about her soul. If we act out part right, the Principal might even value Zeraphine more."

"And what makes you so sure that I won\'t betray you? You said I betrayed Seeker and did great harm to your army." Zeraphine laughed.

"I don\'t. That\'s the crazy gamble. But here\'s the thing... In that alternate future, you met Zeek later in the timeline and fell in love with him. But he was human, so naturally, you held back your heart. But did you do this time? Aside from that, I was being honest. Seeker loves you."

"Right. I can really feel his love."

"If he didn\'t love you, he\'d be with Kristine now. Kristine, use your powers on her now. I need her to hear my words at her most calm point. Right now she\'s angry." Alean ordered.

Kristine obliged and approached Zeraphine and touched her again.

"Kristine here is an interesting character. In that past life, Seeker admired this girl and probably even worshiped her. She was the girl of his dreams. When you killed yourself to save him, Seeker could only move on by trying to replace you. He said that there was an android version of you as Lennox found a way to use the Nefilus Suit and reanimate it. It became some form of comforting mechanism for Seeker to cope. But in reality, he never did, and he never could move on from you. Even in this lifetime, he played with fire. He was unsure whether to abandon you and chase after Kristine or to choose you still. Yet he couldn\'t really resist you. So he approached you and presented the one thing that would make you wholly open your heart to him."

"He claimed to be an Aragarian\'s son," Zeraphine answered. With the power of Kristine working on her, she was not angry at Seeker as she could see it objectively.

She noticed the peculiarities and glanced at Kristine.

"It\'s my path. I can calm emotions down."

"In any case, Seeker got you in the palms of his hand, and your heart has probably opened up even more than it did in that alternate life. In the alternate life, you didn\'t fully betray Seeker. Instead, you chose to die and kill yourself. I guess you couldn\'t betray your race, but you also couldn\'t kill him. Now for what it\'s worth, that\'s something worth relying on. What can trump the curse of a Primordial? The Bible says that of Faith, Hope, and Love, only Love will remain and is, therefore, the greatest. I don\'t know how it plays out in our lives or how these three work against the forces of a transdimensional war.... But it is one of the better options I can place my bets on."

"Ugh... You\'re betting on the love of my rival..." Kristine sighed.

"Sorry, Kristine! I know you are starting to like him right now. But that\'s why I brought you here. Not just to calm Zeraphine\'s emotions, but to show her she\'s not the only one who loves Zeek."

"Who was that woman, though? The one that invaded my dreams. I know it wasn\'t Shackstress." Zeraphine asked.

Alean frowned.

"What woman?"

"When Seeker and the rest raided Garenjazz and fought against him... There was another woman." Zeraphine added.

"A woman? Well, I know that Seeker\'s special case gives him two lives or half-souls in him. One is his current kid self, and the other is the older, alternate world, Seeker. But because of that, Seeker has been creating multiple personalities to cultivate his soul. I think he created a woman\'s thought process. In that dream world, I know he could materialize it. It must have been a thought transference. He did have a thought transmitter with him. Anyway, it\'s not the issue at stake here."

"No. It is important. Because that woman showed me memories."

"...Memories?!" Alean was stunned.

"I\'m calm now. But let me offer you a counter-deal. In this scenario, I will get stronger. And since you\'re already betting that my love for Zeek will win, then let me have that woman! You see, if that woman is what I think it is, then I might have a way to escape the Progenitor\'s curse. Garenjazz and Shackstress escaped it. Garenjazz through luck, and Shackstress through death. It doesn\'t make sense that she is alive and somehow was in Zeek. I know the soul. Her soul shouldn\'t exist like that. Something was keeping Shackstress alive. And I think... it was me!"

"You? But how?!"

"It\'s possible. I saw the other Seeker, who I thought was the Lost Primordial or the Lost Progenitor. But now I know it was the older Seeker you told me about. If he was that old, I could guess how long it was in the future. And I might have perfected that power."

"What power?"

"It\'s a power that has never appeared in the Aragarians. I believe it\'s the only power I can have with how I was born. The power of Soul Imputation."
