The appearance of Garenjazz was a shock to everyone.

But as Seeker saw Garenjazz manifesting before him, he immediately sent a quick message to Lynd informing him to do nothing.

"I really can't wait anymore, kid. You guys have been up for three days! Don't you guys even sleep?" Garenjazz sighed and immediately disappeared and appeared behind Zeraphine, and he reached out towards Seeker.

He wasn't even wearing an Exoskeleton armor or his throne, yet he revealed a strange power.

"No!" Zeraphine shouted, but as she rushed towards Seeker, she then saw that the room was over fifty kilometers wide, and she was at the edge of the room.

"Dreamscape!" Zeraphine was horrified at what she saw as she understood that they were already affected by the power of Garenjazz.

"Greg! You take over!" Seeker cursed and gave orders to have one of his minor personalities take over.

"No! Me!" A woman's voice called out. As Seeker grew stronger, several other personalities were being introduced. And at the Adult Seeker's request, Lennox had given them an A.I that he created with the personality of a woman, which he tried to create for those who preferred a female A.I system in their ships. Seeker also needed one to counter the sausage fest inside his mad mind.

And so, the woman Zoe took was born and had been helping the team of personalities inside Seeker.

"You?" The Adult asked.

"Yes. It's much more confusing if a girl appears."

"...She's right." The other Seeker agreed.

"Alright. Everyone! Go to sleep!" The Adult ordered.

"Can I stay?" Greg asked.

"NO!" Everyone else chorused.

"...Fine."

At that moment, Garenjazz was able to touch Seeker and Seeker fell into a deep sleep.

"GARENJAZZ!" Zeraphine roared.

"Relax. I'm just here to get information about the Progenitor. There are a lot of things that are bothering me in this place. My luck is turning bad, and I'm sure this kid is at the center of everything!"

"You are making an enemy out of the Progenitor!" Zeraphine roared.

"If he is real. Sure. But things have been turning stranger and stranger. Why did that painter know I am the Lion with Wings? Or was it that woman who faked becoming blind? I won't kill this boy as I can see you are really in love with him least you give a bad report to your father when the time comes." Garenjazz chuckled.

"Let go of him!" Zeraphine shouted, but no matter how fast she was moving, she wasn't reaching the pair.

"I'll just check his dreams. That's it." Garenjazz ignored Zeraphine and dove into the dreams of Seeker.

Garenjazz saw himself in a city that had been ruined by war.

People were shouting and screaming as a one-sided massacre occurred.

The moment Garenjazz saw the scene, he frowned.

"What is this? Why is the battle against the Babylos showing here? I was sure that this kid or that Progenitor is an Earthling!"

"Fancy seeing you here, Garenjazz." A calm voice spoke.

The moment Garenjazz heard it, his heart froze, and he turned over to see a beautiful young girl standing.

"You! What are you doing here?"

"What do you think?" The young lady chuckled.

"... You lost? You were devoured?!"

"Not exactly. I lost, but I wasn't devoured. This isn't a Nefilus suit, after all! It's a Phallium. Didn't you know?"

"I never believed that crap! But it's actually true?"

"Of course it is. But I don't blame you. Your powers are similar and more advanced than mine. I can predict and calculate the future, but you could easily sense it. Be warned, though! One among the Progenitor's team has that ability. Since you are here to gather more information about the Progenitor, take what I have just said and leave.

I am here to guard you his soul in case someone like you would try to peer through the memories of this kid."

Without warning, Garenjazz raised his hand a powerful beam shot out.

The young girl frowned and raised his hand.

"Minuscule World!"

The space in which the beam traveled fell into the shrinking world, and the attack missed the young girl.

"Is that proof enough for you?"

"No. You might have her powers and her soul, but something about you is not right!"

"Of course, my soul would be different! Do you think that the Progenitor would just inject my soul into his son's soul without any constraints and seals? He reshaped my soul to be of service to this boy!"

"The Progenitor's a Principal?"

"Yes and no. Why haven't any of you thought of this?! If Earth has the legacy of the Lost Primordial and the surviving Pioneers found it, would it not be possible that some of the more powerful magic of the Lost Primordial would work? So while these people can't be classified as a Principal, they would have access to certain powers that they don't understand, which simply surpasses the level of Principals!"

Garenjazz had a hateful expression. Something about the place and the woman before her made it difficult for him to understand the environment.

"If you really are Shakstress, then who is the one man that-"

"Do not bring him up, Garenjazz. While you are his brother, do not think that I would forever spare you from the killing blow! You deliberately walked into my dream, and I am in control of this place! It won't be like last time where you delayed my soul in your dream!"

"...!" Garenjazz was stunned. The details that this soul spoke of were only something that he and Shakstress knew.

"I can't believe it! You really lost!"

"I am actually dead, thanks to you. Your little delay in my arrival made the Progenitor position his team into a more favorable setup." Shakstress glared.

"I am partially dead because of you!"

"...If you hate me so much, why not just kill me here?"

"Why do you think?"

"... The Presider Wars. Better a person who hates you but won't kill you than the Presider that is coming."

"Yes. You won't kill Seeker or the Progenitor due to Zeraphine. You are a half ally. In the coming wars, it's much more convenient to know that at least if you come out of this the winner, the Progenitor won't fear annihilation."

"Then is there anything you can tell me, half ally?"

"Just side with the Progenitor. The Lost Primordials are being led by humans now. A disgraceful race dares to dream of joining the Prime Wars. And what's worse is now... because of the stupidity of the Presiders here, they might have their shot!"

"I never thought of you to adore our kind so much! And here I thought that you would be more flexible in dealing with non-Aragarian races."

"I am a half Aragarian, half Babelian. Not a half-earthling."

"...A half Babelian?!" Garenjazz had a shocked expression.

"... You didn't know?! Why did I tell you?!"

"Relax. You're already dead. And I won't talk about it, anyway."

"Get out of here!"

"Fine! I guess the information that proves the Progenitor to be real is enough information for my trip."

"Wait!"

"What now?"

"No. It's... another Phallium suit user is trying to gain access to the dream. I was tasked by the Progenitor to secretly protect Seeker. Otherwise, he might rely on my power all the time."

"Wait. You still have some power?! So you are alive!"

"As I said, I am sealed! But of course, I have the power to help Seeker if needed. You're awfully slow for a Top-Tier!"

"... You're more arrogant."

"I'm a sealed soul. I'm immensely frustrated with my life. What do you expect?"

"Then what exactly am I waiting for?"

"I will open the passage to allow you to see Seeker. But another with the powers to move between dreams will appear there. You can choose to spy and listen to their conversation. But once your are done, leave. Do not harm the boy, or I'll go in there and pull you out!"

"Fine! Fine! I hope they talk about something interesting..." Garenjazz shook his head as a path towards another dreamworld opened in another portal.

Garenjazz moved inside, and the portal closed.

Seeing Garenjazz leave, the young woman sighed.

"I did as you asked, Princess."

"Thank you, Shakstress." Behind Shakstress was the consciousness that Seeker thought they created as an addition to their thoughts. It was Zoe.
