Seeker held his hand up as a force around Lynd continued to crush him. Lynd was shouting and screaming as Seeker used the Realm powers that Lioncourt \'gave\' to Seeker.

The strange Realm was distorting energy itself. It was as if all of Lynd\'s cells were not his own.

"Powerful, right? Just a few weeks, and Master has grown stronger after perusing all our data. If I fought him again, nine out of ten, I\'d lose." Seeker chuckled.

"Erm. Zeek? Can I-!" Cliff suddenly frowned and glanced at the empty space next to him.

"General Irvana?" Cliff couldn\'t help but ask.

Irvana suddenly appeared next to Seeker.

"I can\'t believe you still noticed me. I was careful that time." Irvana appeared. She spoke with a strange accent. 

"Supreme General Seeker Carlean. I\'ll be meeting your girlfriend soon." Irvana gave a charming smile towards Seeker.

"Why are you using a Russian accent?" Seeker frowned.

"I thought you\'d like it."

Seeker smirked.

"I forgot that you tend to get obsessed with your guys. Would you believe me when I say in my future it was Lynd who you were after?" Seeker smiled.

Irvana had a look of disgust.

"That pathetic excuse of a man? My future self must have been so… short-sighted." Irvana said as she kept eyeing Seeker.

"You often insult me when I talk bad about Lynd. You often try to find a way to talk to Lynd by making up excuses. Lynd was so tired of it that he made me the person who you would report to. Funny how things change..." Seeker laughed.

"Things can change for the better."

"We\'ll see. I haven\'t figured things out yet, Irvana. I\'ve already made a stupid mistake with Kristine. I should have learned from it, but I couldn\'t help but tease you. I\'m sorry for doing that."

"It\'s too late, General. If you know how obsessed I get… then you know the extent of my emotions."

Seeker smiled but remained silent. His gaze looked towards Lynd as a complicated memory surfaced. Eventually, Seeker shook his head. 

"I hope this girlfriend of yours proves to be strong. Otherwise, I might kill her."Irvana finally broke the silence.

"Which one? Are you talking about the Aragarian or the other one?" Seeker smiled.

"So manly." Irvana licked her lips.

"But mark my words, Seeker Carlean. You will have eyes only for me. Like a Thief in the Night, I\'ll swoop in and steal your heart." Irvana vanished.

Seeker had a peculiar smile painted on his face.

"Seeker. You owe me an all-expense-paid date with Charm for this battle. And a week off for THAT!" Cliff mumbled angrily. He glanced towards the rest of the army, which was now boarding the Lingkaran.

"Don\'t leave yet, Cliff."

"What now? I haven\'t met Charm for weeks, and you show me that scene!"

"You\'re not done yet. You still have one more mission. With your Path, witnessing this little fight of ours ought to be helpful to you." Seeker called out, and with a push towards the deep abyss, Seeker, Cliff, and the rampaging, but bounded Lynd fell into the deep dark ocean.

"WAIT! NO! DON\'T KILL ME!" Cliff pleaded, but Seeker\'s force continued to bring them deeper into the abyss.

"Send me an Exoskeleton for Cliff to wear. Equip it with the best video recording system you\'ve got." Seeker ordered as he moved towards the deep dark sea.

Soon, Seeker came to a halt. The darkness of the sea enshrouded them. They were so deep in the ocean that light could no longer reach them.

"Now, Lynd Peters Indigo. I wasn\'t lying about what your mom and dad said. They called you the gentle giant in my future. But the truth was you were quite a monster when the time came. You see, your parents have a Skill of bloodlust. Though they managed to contain it, they lived a lifestyle of kill whoever pisses them off when they got older. But somehow, this bloodlust that they have didn\'t affect them. They can make another person angry. When they talk and complain, they trigger the bloodlust of those listening. Of course, it has to logically and factually fit." Seeker explained.

Lynd, who was trying to trash about, slowly stopped and began to listen to Seeker\'s words. He had believed that his parents were good at making people feel bitter. But now, that made sense. How else could bitterness drive a nation to revolt?

Cliff had recalled that Lynda and Peter Indigo were the Cambodian Counter\'s cause, which led to a great civil war. Cambodia was reborn as Ivalice and soon became part of the SPU.

"Lynd\'s mom and dad caused the war?!" Cliff was shocked.

"Scary, right? It\'s exactly why I gave the Indigo\'s freedom to travel. The more they complain and make their listeners\' blood boil, the more beneficial it will be for us. It\'s pretty rare how these two have a similar path. I believe that their Skill only appears when the two of them are together. But secretly, they bore a strange being known as Lynd Indigo who bore this maddening bloodlust." Seeker explained.

"This explains why you can\'t remember anything before the age of five. That\'s when the shamans of the Zulu sealed this bloodlust and was revoked when you got cursed. Didn\'t you notice? The soft, kind Lynd Indigo who wanted to save everyone suddenly gave in to his rage and began to fight without worries of implicating civilians."

Cliff was stunned. This was one of the confusing things he couldn\'t piece together with his memories. Lynd\'s change was so dramatic, and he gave into his anger too quickly!

Even Lynd was caught in a daze. It made sense.

"So… you\'re going to tame him?" Cliff asked.

Seeker shook his head.

"Tame him? This is the chance to Overcome! He needs this rage! It could be the cause of his Unlocking! I intend to channel it." Seeker smiled as he turned to Lynd.

"Lynd, you are a step closer to being a real-life cultivator. With all that we found out so far, it\'s obvious that the Aragarian techs are geared to making themselves gods and immortals similar to those Chinese tales of old. So show it to me!" Seeker laughed as he took out a small metallic cube.

Seeker crushed it, and a bolt of powerful lightning formed and solidified into a shape of a spear.

Seeker\'s dark suit began to light up. Strange blue lights could be seen emerging from his suit, revealing the reddish hue.

"You better move, Lynd. Otherwise, you\'d die."

Lynd had managed to unbind himself on some parts of the strange Realm suffocating him, but only his upper chest area could move.

"Like you could risk killing me!" Lynd mocked.

"I am the Way!" Lynd roared.

Seeker flung the spear, and the lightning tore through the waters and was aimed directly at Lynd.

Lynd was stunned at the sudden attack of Seeker.

A needle faced the lightning spear, but it was torn and broken as the lightning pierced through it easily.

A sound shield solidified and was hardened by frost. But the lightning blast tore through it easily.

Lynd panicked and raised his left arm and allowed a powerful glow to appear as he shot at the lightning.

The beam engulfed the spear, but it showed no signs of stopping.

Finally, Lynd caused the beam to implode on itself.

BOOM!

Lynd was thrown downwards right before the lightning spear zapped through his position.

"That\'s what you get for doubting my intentions of killing you." Seeker laughed.

Lynd\'s arm was blown off. He used the imploding energy to explode and destroy the Realm. But because of this, his body was suffering from various burns.

"You! How dare you?! I am the Way! You kill me, then you lose your greatest ace in this war!"

"So what if you\'re the Way? I am the Truth!" Seeker sneered as another bolt emerged on his hand.

"Cliff defeated you. This is the limit of your potential. The only thing that gives you worth is to become food for me! I\'ll push you to your limits! I will tread on your Path! So don\'t disappoint me, Lynd! Give me a good fight before you die!" Seeker immediately threw the bolt.

Lynd was frightened.

The attacks that Seeker has shown were far stronger than any attacks that the three Heroes and the near Overcomer could do.

Lynd summoned the sound and moved through the waters to evade the bolt, but the lightning bolt moved on its own. 

The moment Lynd realized that the Lightning bolt was locked on to him, it was too late for him to evade. The bolt drew nearer and nearer, and suddenly, time stopped.

Lynd could still think, but his entire body couldn\'t move. Yet, at this moment, Lynd didn\'t know what he did. His mind was focused on a single thought.

Seeker really wanted to kill him.

Escaping was no longer an option. Lynd would die if he couldn\'t counter this attack. Lynd grit his teeth as the anger began to rise in his heart. Memories of their friendship surfaced. But soon, the memory of him being beaten and kicked by Seeker surfaced. Memories of his horrifying fight in Pangea also emerged.

In Lynd\'s anger, he glanced at the bolt and wanted it to stop.

Time began to flow normally, but the lightning bolt didn\'t push forward. It kept trying to move, but it was as if a powerful resisting force held it in its place.

"You managed to finally copy the Realm King\'s Path. Congrats." Seeker laughed.

"AHHHHHH!" Lynd roared as he used whatever energy he had to keep the bolt from moving forward. Even with this sudden miracle, he knew that even if he tried to evade, the bolt would readjust its direction.

Cliff, who was watching the battle, felt a chill ran down his spine. He could tell that Seeker really intended to kill Lynd.

"Not enough. Sadly, your rage and potential are not enough. But I guess I\'ve earned quite a bit from your last magic show, Lynd." Seeker laughed as he approached Lynd.

Lynd kept shouting and shouting. He could tell that Seeker was approaching to kill him. Anger turned to hatred and, soon, to despair. He was losing power, and the lightning bolt was showing signs of being able to breakthrough.

"Hey, Lynd. Have you seen the way Alean looked at me? Since you\'re dead, I\'ll help myself to that one. With the world ending, I guess I deserve all these beautiful women. What do you think?" Seeker laughed.

BOOM!

The concealed raging monster inside Lynd fully emerged from its shell.

The lightning bolt disappeared. Lynd\'s blown-off arm, his wounds all began to heal. Surrounding Lynd, the waters began to freeze as Cold Fusion occurred. It was as if the entire ocean was feeding energy to Lynd.

Seeker smiled as he stopped his approach.

"You copied the cold fusion in Cliff\'s Exoskeleton and applied it outside. Or was it inspired by what I\'m doing? This is much better. The Way should be this strong." Seeker laughed.

Lynd\'s expression was cold and detached. He looked at Seeker as his entire body began to recover.

"Let\'s see which of us is the real Messiah, Zeek.." Lynd\'s stoic voiced echoed over the dark waters.
