Gordon was scared. He could see how his base was being attacked. Even the South American soldiers were aiding the Anti-Presiders. It had been weeks ago when Presider Tiana reported to all that a group known as Anti-Presiders began to hinder their operations. Soon more and more of the Presiders were being attacked.

Despite how the Presider War has started, most of the Presiders were still in the process of negotiating their alliances. But this mysterious group was randomly attacking everyone and displayed techs similar to Top-Tiers.

"Maybe I\'ll choose them over you... At least, I won\'t be devoured by them." Gordon laughed.

"You seem to have the wrong idea, Gordon. What do you have that I don\'t already have? Andronze is allied to me. You saw our fight with Shakstress! I have the techs of Shakstress, Crostfree, and trade deals with Andronze. What can you possibly offer? I just need another Throne to fight if ever another battle happens. But these guys went so far to even kill Shakstress!"

"Your lying! Shakstress is alive! You keep on lying and lying! A disgrace to Presiders! You have no real power but only acquired those from the ones you killed?"

"Can you have had the courage to hold your blade and kill Crostfree? I doubt it. You are wrong, Gordon. I am strong. You are weak!"

"Presider! We are being routed! The Anti-Presiders are too strong!" A Pioneer reported to Gordon.

Almost immediately, the signal was lost. This Pioneer was one of the few Pioneers that had a direct line to Gordon and was one of his most trusted men.

"Oh? They are coming here, I see. You lost your best man. You are all alone, Gordon. No Presider offered to forge an alliance and even made alliances with those brats! Sure, they have parents who are strong, but still... it\'s a bit embarrassing. But, come! Let us reason together! I won\'t make things difficult for you! Serve me, and I\'ll give you the scraps from the Presiders that we will kill!" Pridgeon laughed.

"Why me?! You hate me, and you know I despised you!" Gordon cursed.

"You don\'t have what it takes to be a Conqueror. Out of all the Mid-Tiers, you are the weakest! So even if it\'s me, the man you despise, you will cowardly serve me!" Pridgeon laughed as his Throne began to glow.

"That\'s how I found out about your little plan to try and take the WGP\'s techs and resources. You see, I know no one would ally with you, and you would be forced to do that. So my well-placed spies informed me when you made a move and even when you made an effort to create this room that can hide your secret talks. Of course, most Top-Tiers can easily find you. But I know no one would make an effort. That is how weak you are! Do you know that there are now four alliances in this battle? And yet, you are alone. Be thankful that I am willing to pick up the scraps." 

Gordon was trembling with great rage. But everything that Pridgeon said was true.

"Answer quickly. Submit, or become food that I devour!" Pridgeon threatened.

Gordon had created this secret room to hide from the world and the other Presiders. He used the best of his science and was very cautious in his movements as he sought to slowly increase his resources. He was rather successful and was the first Presider that managed to schedule a deal with the WGP. Yet Pridgeon miraculously found him. And just when he was about to make deals with the WGP, Pridgeon appeared and attacked him. The hidden room he created that separated him from the rest of the world became his own trap.

"I... submit..." He finally gave in.

"Do not resist. We\'re going to my world now." Pridgeon smiled as the two were teleporting into the Moon.

The battle outside of the building had turned into a full war.

Pridgeon\'s Throne and the damaged Throne of Gordon appeared inside a massive chamber within the Moon.

"What\'s the status?" Pridgeon asked

"Presider. Take a look! We suspect that those who call themselves Anti-Presiders have leaked their techs to the South American Army. Their soldiers are easily killing all of Gordon\'s men!" Madelyn reported.

Pridgeon took one look at Madelyn and turned to the screen, and noticed that the battle was now solely between Gordon\'s soldiers and the South American army.

"What happened to the man that attacked us? Weren\'t there some exoskeletons attacking? What about the one that attacked your Throne?" Pridgeon asked.

"They all retreated. I\'ll show you the video of my fight. He used a strange power that knocked me unconscious inside the Throne.

Gordon watched in horror. It was already shocking that Madelyn had a Throne of her own. It was even more powerful than the Rules of the WGP. It was close to his own Throne!

"You gave... a Pioneer a Throne?!"

"Madelyn is stronger than you. Those who show strength and wisdom and have the spark of a Conqueror will have their shot to grow. That\'s how Crostfree\'s Pioneers are so obedient." Pridgeon chuckled.

"What damaged your Throne? Was it a supreme Exoskeleton?" Gordon asked.

"No. Have a look at the group you almost allied with..." Pridgeon revealed the video.

Cliff\'s figure appeared.

"I will kill you all!" Cliff\'s words echoed out.

Madelyn quietly listened. She was planning to alter the video before presenting it or corrupt it but was surprised that the recorded words were different from the one that actually happened. But as she realized that his enemy was an ally of Richie and had the way to change and alter sounds, this was possible.

The video switched to Cliff punching on the Throne.

"Feel my power!" Cliff\'s voice echoed out.

"At that point, I fainted." Madelyn explained.

"Interesting. Let\'s depart now." Pridgeon ordered, and the ship began to move.

Back in the three-dimensional plane, the war continued with the forces of Gordon being massacred. All of Pridgeon\'s forces had retreated. Gordon\'s entire building was surrounded, and the South American army continued to fight.

In truth, all of the South American forces were actually of the Unlocked.

The Unlocked had known of this trade. They had numerous spies inside the ship of Pridgeon. Pridgeon was able to find out Gordon\'s plan, and this information was leaked to the Tyrant Empress, who gave it over to Seeker. And now, Cliff had just successfully turned one of Pridgeon\'s most trusted Pioneer into their ally.

Deep in the sewers, Cliff gave a few more orders to his Commanders and later walked away.

"Let\'s move Novelty-Blastoise! You will be facing the Pioneers. Show us your growth and potential! Those who kill the most will be given the next level drugs to get you to Inhuman!" Hank ordered, and the soldiers all moved to their respective position.

The soldiers began to move into their respective position and waited for the signal.

Several squadrons had fought before them, and this squadron was the recent graduates that would have their first combat against Aragarian forces and do not have a \'controlled environment.\'

These soldiers did not have a Commander level Unlocked who would aid them in the fight. They were only soldiers who wore South American army outfits and had guns with Armor-piercing capabilities.

The group huddled on their respective position and prepared for the first real war.

"That was him, right? General Cliff. The boyfriend of Charm?" One of the younger teens asked.

"Yeah. That guy is a monster! We fought him during our graduation ceremony. Most of us were curious as we found out that he was Charm\'s boyfriend. And we thought he would hold back. We were wrong!" One of the older soldiers answered.

"Oh man, just thinking about it brings chills down my spine. No doubt Charm told him who bullied her." Another soldier sighed.

"What\'s his Path?" A young soldier asked.

"People are calling him a Seeker Clone. While he cannot harness all paths, any paths that we have already weaponized except for Meng\'s desolation can be controlled by him!"

Suddenly, a device they wore on their wrist turned red. It was the signal.

"Go!" The older soldier leading the squad ordered, and they immediately shot the top and used a powerful Booster on their legs to fly upwards.

As the battle continued outside, Cliff casually walked in the sewers and suddenly froze.

"Oh, crap! Is this another one of Seeker\'s secret training sessions?" Cliff frowned.

"Boss? What\'s up?" Counter asked Cliff.

"Counter. Can\'t you sense that? There\'s even two of them!" Hank shook his head.

"Stop embarrassing us, Conter. Boss, are we going to fight?" Zidane asked.

"Why don\'t we ask him?" Cliff sighed.

"Why didn\'t you teleport away? I was worried you would, actually." A man appeared in the darkness.

"It eats up a lot of my energy. So I only use it when necessary.. What are you doing here, Amir Mann?" Cliff asked as he readied his weapons.
