Chapter 221: The Good Soil

After suffering from an unknown attack, the Empress dared not be reckless. The attack that gave her tremendous wounds didn't have any powerful fluctuations or any abnormal energy signs. All that her suit could detect was that the device that her enemy used was something similar to that of a Pangean Whiplash bomb.

Yet from that attack, it created a strange force that reverberated deep within her own armor and wounded her. Since shooting from a distance that required such concentrated energy was dangerous, the Empress switched tactics.

She wrapped the light energy of her suit and contained in on her fist and legs. She dashed forward and attempted to face the enemy in a melee.

The young man could be seen chuckling as he charged forward to meet the Empress.

Facing the glowing energy of the Empress' fist, the young man threw a punch as well.

The two fists connected and created shockwaves. The two flew several meters away from each other due to the impact. But as soon as the Empress was thrown back, she immediately commanded her suit to fly again.

She then delivered a kick towards the head of the enemy, who was still midair.

Suddenly, the young man slapped to the air next to him, and as if there was an invisible wall, he was suddenly thrown sidewards and caused him to spin. As the Empress passed him, he suddenly kicked on the air as if something invisible was there. With that, a sword extended out from a small handle, and he slashed at the boosters of the Empress.

The Exoskeleton suit of the Empress had boosters on the heels and on the shoulders. These boosters could change its angle to a certain degree, and with the high tech computer response, these suits can quickly shift the flight angle at a shocking speed.

The WGP has developed auto-positioning boosters that would adjust itself to keep the Exoskeleton from losing control and falling.

Yet when the enemy struck the Empress's leg, it forcible changed the direction of the boosters, causing the Empress to plummet to the ground in a mediocre fashion.

CRASH!

The enemy continued its attack and struck the Empress's body.

The auto-pilot adjustment immediately scrambled. It detected an aggressive attack and began to boost her further away from the enemy and try to adjust the Empress's position to get her back up.

But the enemy moved even faster. Various explosions could be heard at each step of the enemy. It created a forceful blast that propelled the young man faster than the speed of sounds.

The young man kept moving around the Empress and always aimed his attack on the Empress's boosters.

The Empress kept crashing on the Kraken's floor and walls due to the boosters' constant redirection.

As she was crashing and smashing, he heard a laughing voice.

"Hey, you guys should host a game like this in the next Olympic. Emperor Curling!" The man laughed as he always toyed with the Empress, making her go where she was supposed to go.

Suddenly, the man stopped chasing as he stopped and allowed the Empress to fly in an uncontrolled manner.

She had already struggled and tried to take manual control of her flight after the insult. Her control inhibited the Exoskeleton from destroying a rogue rocket headed towards her.

BOOM!

The explosion caused the unguarded Empress to scream as she was once more thrown to the side.

They had neared the giant tornado's location, and several dangerous attacks were thrown off every once in a while.

"Nice suit! It's really sturdy! To think it can take quite a beating." The man chuckled as he noticed the Empress immediately getting up.

The Empress had several wounds from the various impacts she received. The previous attacks that she took on the last battle didn't harm her. Yet, towards this man, she was beaten continuously and even made a plaything. She felt like a hockey puck that was simply toyed around by a skilled player.

The Empress didn't attack immediately and allowed her suit to heal her and make their repairs. Inwardly, the Empress was afraid. Her suit held the best technology around the world. The Emperors of the World Governing Powers was the most powerful group of people on Earth. Although not many of them were as rich or as capable as other businesses, organizations, and conglomerations of the world, they still had access to the world's best technology.

"Who are you?!" She cried in anger. She could not understand the unfairness of this battle.

Being the most significant powers that monopolized mankind, they controlled everything. They managed the light of the world and even had greater control on its darkness. Human experiments, human trafficking, the development of illegal drugs, and even the trade of weapons occurring in the Underworld were known to them. In fact, some Emperors manage the key parts of this disgusting black market!

They wore technology that could not be trumped by skill or ability. Their bodies held the world's best human modification programs, which combined various techs from different countries. Their bodies were harder, stronger, and could easily outperform a peak human.

Yet the man before him was able to easily toy around with her great techs. Their suit had the best stabilizing and recovery technology. It boasted being able to regain stability to the pilot in just two seconds! But the enemy quickly took advantage of this technology! This wasn't something that could be done by an average human who had no devices such as the physics analyzer that all Emperors are easily equipped with!

"What is that sword?! How could it leave marks to my suit?!" She shouted in frustration and fear.

The Exoskeleton suit she had was made of a unique metal hybrid that was only known to them. The secret of that metal was that it was formed only on the polar locations of the Earth. This was why the World Governing Powers made a nation for themselves in the Arctic regions.

Yet this apparent sword had left several markings on her suit! The boosters that she had on her left shoulder was actually damaged! Although it was negligible, how could a mere sword slash create such damage?!

The WGP also inherited a mysterious technology that allowed to harness and command energy. The Origin Science that breached the known dimensions and could even create gravity and bend the natural laws was rarely used in battle.

Yet she could not even use those techs to her advantage. Her previous concentrated attack that would have destroyed the most advanced tanks and Armors was countered. And her intense Origin punch was also matched with an unknown technology!

"What technologies do you have?!"

They had the technology, the physical enhancement, the world's financing, and the best equipment that any nation could ask for. They have ruled the world and retained their position as the greatest for a century.

These were the reasons why the Empress was so angry at the young figure who clearly did not have even a decent armor to protect him.

Despite being illogical and even idiotic, she could not help but curse out and ask these questions to the young man before her.

"Are you going to also ask for my ASL next? What about my Social Networking account or email? I don't usually give my digits to an old lady, though." The young man laughed.

"Answer the question!" The Empress growled as she readied and gathered more Origin energy.

Seeker glanced at the Empress. This was the force that Cliff and Gardo would not dare fight but only used various ways to deceive to flee from her. This was one of the strongest political and military power known to Earth. And Seeker had a simple assessment.

"So weak." Seeker shook his head.

"For someone who calls herself an Empress, you sure are weak. I mean, look at you! I'm even giving you time to gather that energy to recover and replenish your suit! The last lady that I fought, now THAT was an Empress." Seeker chuckled.

Seeker detonated another ball of Thunder during the battle and used the powerful sounds for him to move and attack. The drawback was that Seeker could only contain Richie's Sounds within several seconds, depending on the extent and power of how he used the sound. It was that force that allowed him to clash with the Origin punch and allowed Seeker to move fast and perform his miraculous movements.

The Empress waited, and her anger continued to rise. But behind this anger was a sense of fear. She readied a devastating attack. She took the opportunity that Seeker gave her to make the necessary arrangements to ensure minimal damage on the Kraken. Otherwise, a large breach would be made on this attack.

Seeker could notice the peculiarities. What was even amazing was that changes were occurring in the fourth dimension!

"I see. Sudden detonation." Seeker sneered at the attempts of the Empress.

He grasped on the remaining balls of Richie to prepare for the attack. And as he did that, he felt uncomfortable.

"Seriously, Richie needs to change the name of these grenades." Seeker frowned.

The Empress rushed forward and prepared for her to detonate the Origin Energy within. The explosion would be the strongest concentrated energy known to man. It surpassed the raw destructive powers of the Eradication and Solarium energy. The energy was so great that it could even melt the hardest metals that even the WGP could create!

"Devils Purgatory!" The Empress shouted, and her suit immediately set off the attack.

The Origin energy around her and the nuclear power source her suit fused together to create a miniature explosion of concentrated kinetic energy. Taking inspiration to the heavenly bodies that contained the energy, Devils Purgatory was an attempt to create a contained blast by creating a miniature sun.

Origin Energy formed the various energies that breached the fourth dimension and allowed the appearance of such power. Although it exploded out, the energy was also contained that it did not corrode the metals of the Kraken's hull.

Even when the Empress was yet rushing towards Seeker, Seeker detonated one Balls of Thunder and kicked back to escape the exploding energy. A strange slingshot-like force made from sound also flung Seeker and aided in his quick retreat. The remaining sound energy was used to attack and impede the created energy. However, it was all immediately devoured by the miniature sun.

The Sun remained for a few seconds before diminishing.

The explosion was strange. It did not erupt downwards to damage the hull of Kraken. But instead, it expanded out. The energy it released was so powerful that no explosive force was created beyond the initial creation of the sun.

As for Seeker, he stood at the edge of the explosion. He was one footstep away from being incinerated.

The Empress saw that Seeker was unharmed, and her frustrations exploded out.

"A thirty-meter-wide incinerating technique. Impressive. It didn't even create a loud sound. You can use this stealthily." Seeker rubbed his chin.

The Empress was shocked. How did he know that the attack was precisely thirty meters! This was the preset made for her suit!

Seeker saw it all on the fourth dimension. He could see a strange fluctuation. With his sight that could see the shadow of the changes in the third dimension, Seeker retreated accordingly and stood a step out of the actual explosion.

Seeing the unmoving figure of the Empress, Seeker knew that his little whimsical decision had shattered the confidence of the Empress. It was time.

"Are you one of his seeds?" Seeker asked.

That question further caused the Empress to freeze.

"I am one of his seeds. So are you also one of us?" Seeker asked again.

"I don't know what you're talking about!" The Empress finally answered.

"We have Chaser Brander. We can kill him. We also know where your daughter is, and we can also kill her." Seeker laughed.

The Empress felt her knees weaken at those words. If it wasn't for the suit, she would have stumbled.

The Empress immediately turned off all of the communication systems in her suit.

"I am one of those seeds!" She finally answered.

"Prove it."

"I am a descendant of Reginald Price and the inheritor of Progenitors will. My family continues to secretly carry out this mission. After the war, we have been tasked to divide Earth and create a society that would divide technology to allow the other seeds to blossom without suspicion. We are the Good Soil!"

Seeker smiled. This was the proof he needed. Arthur's prediction was correct. The group leader who would immediately rush towards the Kraken had the highest potential in being one of the seeds.

"The announcement that this Kraken made about those weapons from New Great Britain was something that it casually made. It didn't know the significance of the Wind Seed. But of course, it would inevitably cause the Progenitors Seed within the WGP to act despite the vague name." Seeker explained.

"So all of this... was to talk to me?" The Empress asked.

"No. We did this for several reasons. That is one of them, though." Seeker admitted. Seeker began to think. Nogard Meng was One Who Plows By the Good Soil. The terminology that the Empress revealed was precisely about that.

"The Good Soil? I finally understand. There is the one who plows, there is the good soil, so the Progenitor must be the Sower..." Seeker mumbled to himself.

"Is this a coincidence? Did he know that these are Christian terminologies? Is he an Aragarian Christian?" Seeker wondered.

"Who are you?! And what have you done to my-"

"Relax. I was just confirming if you are the Seed. We have no plans to kill your daughter and your little boyfriend. We, in fact, want them to be our allies. Although your daughters probably going to have a mental breakdown for trying to blackmail Lowengren." Seeker shook his head.

"What?" The Empress was confused.

"All in good time, Empress. For now, lets put on a show of fighting each other. The enemy that the Progenitor talked about is already here and should be watching right now. One of the reasons why we attacked this Kraken is to make them act."

"Who exactly are you?" The Empress asked again.

"Empress...I am your father!"

"WHAT?!" The Empress was stunned.

"Just kidding. I'm sorry. I couldn't resist. Seeker Carlean. He Who Treads the Ancient Paths."
