The Four Winds of Hermes took action and made massive attacks.

The Blowing Wind, the Cutting Wind, the Chilling Wind, and the Void Wind took action and assumed their position.

Hermes stood in between them and was harnessing the power of a massive hurricane.

The power of the wind was so strong. The group was not just making strange dances in Andronze\'s ship but was recuperating and harnessing the wind.

Ever since the start of the conflict, Hermes and his team could not display their powers as they were ambushed and wounded even before they could reveal more of it, and had to hide their presence and was unable to make ample preparations.

But now, the massive wind had been created. Omega had gathered and created a massive amount of air and was ready to deploy it. And with an enemy that they knew would not kill them, the team decided to initiate the more reckless attacks that they would have saved for a critical moment. In their minds, this was no longer war but a little contest of strength against Octarion and Arthur.

The hurricane began to blow towards the army that Arthur deployed.

"Octarion. Move now." Arthur ordered.

Octarion observed the armor he had. With the technology available, Arthur had immediately crafted a working model for the suit with the help of one of his father\'s AI thought processes. Of course, it wasn\'t sentient, but with the basic orders, it managed to arrange the techs available and provided a framework that the engineers would create.

The tech that Octarion has had surpassed any creation made on Earth. It was a suit that merged perfectly with his own body.

The power in his body was harnessed. Just as Hermes and his team had guessed, Octarion now had a form similar to the form the Lynd revealed. Octarion\'s body became rich in radioactive levels as he could freely release the energy without the worry of burning himself up. The suit became a powerplant that moderated the energy his body was releasing and even channeled it.

Octarion excitedly moved to attack. The limits that restrained him from revealing the true powers of his body were mostly resolved.

A single punch was thrown towards the hurricane that blew away most of Shakstress\'s fortress.

The power of that punch was harnessed by the suit and created an erupting force that blasted out. A transparent force erupted out and was even improved by Octarion\'s body.

A wave of transparent energy shot out.

BOOM!

The wind and the force collided in mid-air and created a massive shockwave akin to weapons of mass destruction deployed on the sky.

The two clashing armies of Egypt and Shakstress\'s ship were blown away from the attack.

"What the!" Alvin frowned. There was something strange with the power that they encountered.

"What a genius. He stabilized his Realm with his new little toy." Hermes laughed as he observed.

Austin could sense it. It was as if a fifty-foot giant of a man stood before them. The Realm of Octarion broke out of the suit and created energy that was alive.

Andornze saw it and was stunned.

"What is that...? It\'s better than the WGP\'s Origin, but it\'s not quite Universe Energy!"

"Boss... Should we do that? If Arthur allowed him to use that..." Alvin asked.

"Of course, we can. That\'s the whole point of us staying with Andronze and playing around with her!" Austin answered.

"So we can reveal our Realm as well?" Omricon asked.

"Of course. We hid it not to draw any suspicions. But now, we do have a lot of scapegoats to blame. Boss?"

"Good! This is very good! Let\'s go crazy! Let\'s show them why we are called Hermes!"

The remaining hurricane suddenly changed. It took form and stood like a massive creature made of winds. But now, the winds raged faster and shaped itself to the form of a human.

The wind creature had ahead, and Hermes stood on it.

The winds creature\'s arms formed as Alvin and Austin took their respective positions on the left and the right.

Omega was positioned on the bottom center, and the man looked like a genie with gassy mist that made up its leg.

Finally, a wind sword was formed as Omricon transformed himself into it.

"What... is that...?" Madison was shocked at what he saw.

"It\'s expected. Richie can do something like that if his team could master it. Ever since the battle in the Kraken, the usage of Origin, which created the Titan, and that water below became an obsession for them. Realm is stronger than Origin, after all. And that is what most Overcomers have tried to create." Arthur explained as he watched it.

Andronze was shocked at the power that Hermes revealed but recalled that Hermes stated the lack of prayers allowed them to fight in a \'severely weakened state.

"What exactly is the true form of their power?" Andronze was amazed.

The two beings clashed.

The transparent form of a giant punched, and Hermes grabbed his sword and slashed back.

BOOM!

The clashing realm created yet another explosion in the sky.

As that happened, all Presiders were watching in amazement at the battle. Many crafts and Exoskeletons from Egypt were blown away, but somehow, not one of Shakstress\'s forces was damaged. They went on and began to attack the Egyptian fleet.

The sword and the fist remained in contact as a powerful force continued to erupt. 

"How is that guy blocking Omircon?!" Alvin cursed as she kept channeling more wind to create a repelling force through the Blowing Wind.

"This is his Path! It\'s not just that he has physical strength. He is the very essence of force itself!"

"Force in motion to be precise." Hermes gave a dangerous smile.

"Let his fist through. We are the wind! Let\'s fight as such!" Hermes moved forward, and everyone followed.

Octarion\'s fist moved forward as the sudden loss of resistance as the form of the sword changed.

Suddenly, all five of Hermes appeared before the large armor in the center.

A slicing sword slashed through the thick layer of Realm. Omricon was at the back, and his appearance was covered with gusts of winds that grew dark in color.

The slash was made, and Hermes dove inside with Alvin, Omega, and Austin following closely behind.

Their winds were being pulled out, and it gathered on a small back of wind in the hands of Hermes.

"Breath of God!" Hermes roared as he threw the ball of wind towards Octarion.

Octarion raised his arm, which became a large shield that covered all of his body. The massive Realm that he was projecting vanished.

BOOM!

Another explosion that erupted a dark wind that had the form of a tornado spread out.

Even Andronze had to retreat so as not to be caught up in the explosion.

At the scattering of the wind, all that remained at the core of the explosion was the hovering and undamaged Exoskeleton of Octarion.

Andronze was horrified at what he saw.

"Hey, Andronze. Fight now. We\'ll keep this big guy busy." Hermes\'s voice could be heard.

"Where are you?"

"We are the wind. Where else would we be?" Hermes laughed.

"Go!" Hermes then spoke as Octarion suddenly began to raise his shields to block unseen attacks.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Andronze was shocked, but Hermes\'s voice called out to her again.

"Hurry!"

Andronze began to pilot her Pyramid and moved forward.

"Presider! We are here for battle!" A transmission reached her, and Andronze saw all of Egypt\'s best ships and an army of Exoskeleton positioned behind her. It was the elite of Egypt. The very group Andronze built and nurtured.

"Why are you here? I told you to defend the base!"

"Presider, if the sun will not shine over Egypt, then we are all lost! It took a while, but we managed t quell the dangers on the borders of Egypt. Now we are here!"

Andronze was silent. She could not help but have an uncertain feeling. Since when were her Pioneers this loyal?

"I was planning to create a civil war in Egypt to test you. But it seems our trial for your graduation begins now!" Andronze turned to the battle ahead. Regardless of why her Pioneers now stood next to her, the prize in front of her was ripe for the taking.

"Attack!" 

The Egyptians cheered as the elite of Egypt charged forward to join the battle.

Meanwhile... In the underground region...

A strange ship flew through the tunnels of Egypt...

Inside the strange ship were several men watching the broadcast of the battle.

"To think I was so arrogant enough to fight Hermes." Gallium shook his head.

"Where are they? Hermes and his group?" Vender asked.

"They became the wind." Harker concluded.

"They became the wind? Like Lennox?"

"Something like that. But they used a different path to become the wind, though. Lennox calculates his way to make the transformation into lightning. But those five have grown to be believers. The foundation they might have acquired through Seeker\'s power, the science of Realm, and even the changing nature of Meryl\'s power accomplished the impossible." Lowengren explained.

"Hermes. God of the Air." Harker answered.

"By the way, how did you convince the Pioneers to fly up there?" Vender asked.

"Thanks to Lowengren\'s lies, Gallium\'s tech, which made me look like I had special techs from Andronze, and of course Ashaka faking as enemies, it was easy to convince the army that I was capable of matching the thoughts of a Presider. I did pray in front of them to convince them that Prayers did work in my efforts to convince them to march with everyone towards the sky."

"Pray? Is that what happened? I was busy absorbing more metal from their supply that I didn\'t see what you did." Gallium was curious and turned to Lowengren.

"When Akasha surfaced from the sub, I already noticed the weapons of mass destruction being launched from the World Governing Trading Hub and knew Seeker would be with them. So I decided to ask Akasha to attack Egypt and pretend to be some form of a pseudo-Presider. So Akasha attacked a base, and I made Harker pray, and Akasha retreated. So they believed the power of prayer." Lowengren answered as he was analyzing the map of the underground world.

"Wow." Gallium was amazed.

"Anyway, we rendezvous with Akasha and head to the heart of Egypt and explore the underground base. Our mission is to find Arthur\'s sister!" Lowengren explained.

"He\'s grown. That Arthur. To think he would trust us for a mission like this." Harker smiled.

"We are the perfect group to do so. My lies, Vender\'s annoying rants that can kill guards who listen, you power to make people trust you. Gallium\'s metal bending ability, and a horror creature who will play the role of an awakened demon deep inside the earth, Akasha." Lowengren laughed.

"I wonder what Akasha found." Gallium wondered.

"I found amazing storage of this liquid metal. It was as if Arthur sent me to the place which would be most helpful to me. But Akasha... She looked very strange. But her power... it felt like it doubled."

"I know. I doubt that Arthur knew what it was that she sent Akasha to. He must have calculated that it was some form of modified creature or something. I was shocked when Askasha told me what she found and explained her current state. I didn\'t just send her off to the cities above to distract the Pioneers. The truth is she freaked me out. And if she stayed with us, we\'d be dead." Lowengren recalled the strange look Akasha had when she appeared before him.

"What did she find?"

"The blood of the Lost Primordial."
