"Why would the Lost Primordial go after the Jews?" Harker challenged.

"They do not pose a threat in any way. Yet you think that the Jews can give you the benefits that you need and even protect you from the Lost Primordial?" Harker looked as if he heard an extremely unfunny and even provocative joke.

"I plan to start a program that aims to bring back all the Jews and re-establish Israel as a nation once more. And I am sure it will gain favor with many nations." Lara explained.

"Favor? Although the Muslim nations of the Caliphates are no longer as antagonistic to the Jews as it was a hundred years ago, and even if many of the nations in the Caliphates love the Jews and protect them, they are not strong enough to force every nation to participate in a plan of transferring possibly millions from their country. What reason do they have to heed your call? Humanitarian aid? Love? Peace?" Harker laughed.

"Such words will be laughed at in the age that we now live in. If you think nations are willing to protect the Lost Primordial is hunting down the Jews that you claim for love, you must be insane."

"True. But that will change soon. As I said, I believe the Lost Primordial are after them. The proof might even move you to act."

"Proof?"

"All the people you rescued, which the Australians were experimenting on are Jews. You can collaborate with New Great Britain to confirm."

Harker stood up in surprise. He motioned to the soldiers near him.

Earl and Scribs immediately rushed towards the nearby computers to pull up the files.

"Why would they be Jews?" Harker asked.

"I don't know. I was hoping that you could figure out why since it was you who attacked Australia. I bet that the events that your daughter discovered here in Pangea also involves the Lost Primordials! I saw those disgusting news of how they were harvesting organs from people and even had a pedophile ring. I'm betting that many of them are Jews! We have a way to determine if a person is of Jewish descendant. I'll give you that technology. Check the organizations that Feltrick Ung-Glaive had Malay-Pangea. I wouldn't be surprised that for his human trafficking operations, most, if not all of them, are Jews.  "

"Bring up the file of the surviving experiments we found in Malay-Pangea." Harker ordered as well.

Earl immediately moved and brought it up.

"Sir! Around thirty percent have claimed to be of Jewish descent!"

"Sir! As she said, many of those from New Great Britain are Jews too!"

Harker was silent and continued to observe the people.

"It's likely that most if not all of them are Jews. Answering the question about their citizenship is very confusing for Jews. After all, they have no country to call home again. So they might answer the most recent country they resided in." Harker concluded.

"See? this changes things, General. Maybe some deeper plot is at the foot as to why the Lost Primordial is targeting Jews."

"Indeed. I may have to return to the Underworld to scout for activities that involve Jews…" Harker frowned.

"Sir, why the Jews? Why another Holocaust?"

"It makes perfect sense. They become the ideal group to experiment on." Harker answered.

"The Jews have already dispersed. Family ties have probably been lost, and if one family who do not know or is unable to contact their other relatives disappear, they won't be noticed. The Jews have been the target! The Lost Primordial may have been targeting Jews to perform their human trafficking and human experimentation programs!" Harker moved towards the computer and brought up several files.

The soldiers began to bring up various findings that they have found out.

"Are you sure of this? You'd be a slave!" Charm asked Lara once more.

"Don't worry. Harker is a good guy. I could tell. He's really just angry with what happened to his daughter. I guess you could say kids like us ought to be his weakness. He won't force me into doing anything really bad."

"But you'd be a slave!" Charm repeated.

"It's only to protect them from spies. It makes sense, Charm. Remember, Harker's armies were defeated. It's normal for him to be this paranoid." Lara smiled.

Charm could only sigh.

As Charm no longer talked to Lara, Lara began to activate a unique technology that allows her to type out her thoughts and send it towards the Pioneers.

"Pioneers, contact those working under Garenjazz. Send them the entire conversation that you just recorded. Tell Garenjazz that I need to talk to him immediately." Lara typed out.

"Presider, If I may… why did you tell Harker that critical information? I thought discussing things about the Lost Primordial is strictly prohibited?" One of the Pioneers dared to ask.

"I am doing this to make Harker work alongside Pridgeon. I think Pridgeon betrayed us."

"What? Why?" The Pioneer was confused.

"Harker's statements. He said that this Lost Primordial wanted Seeker. And he promised to hand Seeker over to me! I have gone over the videos of Harker and the statement that Crostfree told us. My original assumption was that Harker was the one who challenged and talked with Crostfree. After all, we can tie Crostfree and Pridgeon's tale together with Pangea's video. But now it looks like Crostfree lied. Garenjazz was right. Just send him a message. I need to talk to him."

"As you will, Presider." The Pioneer answered.

Lara continued to talk with Charm, and soon, Harker approached them.

"We agree to help you. We will support this project. We will meet again tomorrow. Prepare all the files your family has about the Jews and send ten people to undergo the Programmed Slave operation. Miss Charm, please stay as I have more to discuss with you. The Dalisay family has also arrived."

"Can I at least have information about who you are allied with? How did you drive that moon back when even the WGP failed?"

"I have no reason to tell you. Even if you become a Programmed Slave, such information won't reach your ears. Now go. I must discuss certain things with Charm. Also, your first assignment is to study who it was that attacked us last night. Lynd Indigo is missing."

"Missing? Lynd? Oh, my God!" Charm cried.

"Indigo? Is Lynd someone that the Lost Primordial wanted?"

"No. By the looks of it, I assume that Lynd is in league with the Lost Primordial. Use your connections to find him. And ignore the other parties involved. I already know who and what they were after. If I find out you've been looking for the other parties, then the deal is immediately off, and we will consider you our enemies." Harker answered coldly.

Lara said nothing but gave a polite nod. She turned to Charm to bid her farewell.

"Charm. Let's talk and catch up once we've done our responsibilities to save this world!" Lara smiled and turned to leave.

"First of all, Cliff is safe." Harker began as Lara was leaving.

The doors shut, and Lara couldn't hear the conversation.

Tyler escorted Lara out of the building, but the pair was unusually quiet.

"This looks like to be harder than it seems. I hope Garenjazz can figure something out!" Lara tried her best to hide the frustration in her heart.

"Pridgeon. What did you really see?" Lara's mind wandered.

Using her technology, she began to send orders to the Pioneers to make the Diamon prepare for their search of Lynd Indigo. At the same time, she made orders for Pioneers affiliated with organizations that were the Diamon family's known enemies to begin the investigation.

"Oh? Lara Diamon?" A surprised voice was heard.

Lara looked up and saw a familiar figure who has been on the news on several occasions.

"Who is this?" Lara typed mentally.

"Presider, that is Gardo Dalisay."

"You must be the head of Dalisay. General Harker mentioned you." Lara answered.

"If you are here, then it means you are our allies. Strange times. Strange times…" Gardo sighed with a sad lamentation.

"President. For the last time… Anime can wait! And please be more accommodating to Miss Diamon!" A strict woman was by her side and began to berate Gardo.

Gardo rolled his eyes as the woman berated but turned towards Lara and smiled.

"Any way we can help you? I'd love to talk more with the Diamon head, but I'm busy and should meet with General Harker." Gardo smiled.

"Do you know about Lynd Indigo?" Lara asked.

"Oh… Yeah. We just got off that site. I can't give you the details as to the chaos there. It was a mess. Romans, Brazilians, and even Mongolians. Strange stuff. To think Lynd was in league with these people. Harker's boys didn't have a chance." Gardo sighed.

"General Harker! President, please be more respectful!" The woman chastised again.

’’Anyway, here's the information we gathered." Gardo brought up a Comm device and began sorting through the files he had.

"I'm only supposed to search for Lynd Indigo. I don't think I should take that." Lara's expression turned sour.

"Hm?" Gardo looked stupefied.

"Miss Lara, Gardo didn't mean anything." Tyler finally interceded.

"The General has given her strict instructions not to search for the other parties." Tyler sighed.

"Oh? I'm sorry. I thought she's our ally."

"She is. But you know how paranoid the General is. Miss Lara, please take the files that the Dalisay is generously offering. I'll tell the General." Tyler smiled.

Lara nodded. She knew that Tyler was trying to hide the fact that she would soon be a Programmed Slave. She took out her comm device and received the files that the Dalisay gave.

Lara took it and went her way. But even as she was leaving, she was trying to listen to the conversation of Tyler and Gardo, which disappeared as the group entered the elevator door.

Lara walked towards a car that was waiting for her, and she got in it and left.

"Find out what you can with this file…" Lara held the comm device, and all the files were being uploaded and shown to the laptop computers the Pioneers had. She was lucky that she received information that she herself was not supposed to look for.

"We've detected a virus in the file."

"Obviously. That Gardo's pretty sneaky. But it looks like the information he sent is legit. This makes the efforts of investigating who were these other parties involved easier." Lara answered as she perused the file through the technology of her suit. The connections detailed that those who attacked Lynd belonged to a secret ninja organization in the EAA.

In it were various details about Lynd indigo. It was there that the information about Lynd's family line was revealed.

"Lynd Indigo…" Lara continued to look at the various CCTV's.

She was surprised to see something miraculous.

Several soldiers were shooting at something in the CCTV, but a blurring figure blast towards them, and it was as if a small bomb exploded. It was a brutal scene. Some of the soldiers were immediately killed and burned from the fiery napalm.

A bright burning figure that looked like a flare remained and slowly dimmed down.

When the fiery flare disappeared, Lynd rushed over to one of the unconscious soldiers. Lara immediately paused the video and could see Lynd Indigo.

"Lynd Indigo really is a spy..." Lara noted as she read the details of the Mercenary parents of hers and read the details of their adventures.

"Is he a mercenary hired by the Lost Primordial, or is one of them?" Lara pondered.

"Presider. How is it that Lynd's clothes are not burned up? In the video, he bursts into flames!"

"It's probably a Skinsuit. Don't bother researching. That suit is equal to a Presider foundational technology. Only the WGP of this world has it."

The Pioneer was amazed.

She zoomed the video to reveal Lynd's face. Lynd grabbed one of the soldiers that were knocked out from the explosion and could see that it was Lynd.

Lynd immediately retreated with amazing speed and movement techniques that allowed him to scale buildings!

Lara's expression darkened.

"Gather all the Pioneers of this country." Lara immediately ordered.

"I have to act decisively!" She declared.

"Presider, we have gotten word from the Pioneers under Garenjazz. Garenjazz intends to meet with you." The Pioneer reported.

"Good. It's better this way." Lara sighed.

"You all have to get stronger. The undercurrents here on Earth are terrifying. Most of you fled here to escape the exploitive and predacious lifestyle at home. But it seems that something similar will happen on Earth. The Presiders will begin to devour each other." Lara warned the Pioneers inside the car.

They were silent, but there was fear in their hearts. When Presiders battle, the Pioneers are but expendable pawns.

Back in Australia, six of the Exoskeletons that attacked Seeker were all mangled and broken up.

The only one that remained standing was an Exoskeleton who only had one armored arm. The left-arm had wounds but was generally still alright compared to his amputated companions.

"Impressive. I yanked off that arm of yours, but you could react just on time and twist your arm and release those handles. Millisecond Reaction. Perhaps with this, I could further understand that werewolf I met." Seeker laughed.

"Just admit defeat." Seeker sighed.

"We have a lot to talk about. Disciples, hope you learned something."

"I learned not to joke around with you, General." A tall lady laughed.

"Amazing. I never thought that energy blasts could be held like that!" A middle-aged man finally spoke. He had been holding his breath far too long when the battle began.

"And to think, that none of us could defeat the six of them," Matthew added.

"Cronus. Your teammates need to recover. Disciples, prepare any prosthetic surgery. They will be busy in the next few days."

Cronus maintained a battle stance. But in reality, this was a façade. The terror that Seeker brought on to them was extremely scary. In his eyes, he thought his companions were all dead. It was both courage and cowardice that caused him to stand firm with his sword. He was too scared even to speak.

Seeker made quick work of them. They attacked together and used weapons that even allowed them to challenge and deflect the fleet's attack, but all of it was made useless in front of this man.

"Still, I will commend you, though. With your limited materials, you still managed to create a team that could be on par with Harker's trio and the Small Time Drug Dealers put together! In any case, let this be a lesson, Cronus. You defeated Arthur. So your potential is amazing. Grow stronger and transform your team to be real titans. Your life depends on it." Seeker walked over to the twelve disciples as Cronus finally fainted because of fatigue, shock, and stress.

"Prepare the army. In two days' time, we attack Central Australia."
