Kristine walked towards Seeker in amazement.
The rest were whispering and began to talk at what they saw.
Jake was trying to get out of his binds, but the technology that held him used Realm, making his escape impossible.
Alean turned to Lynd.
"What's going on?"
"Strange... Seeker's emotions are more clear. This is the real Seeker! That kid who loved Piercing and who simped over Kristine!" Lynd could sense the emotions.
"Why?! What happened?!" Meryl rushed towards Lynd and cursed.
"What about Alphie?! Now Kristine is a problem to my dream love team?!" Meryl cursed.
Even though the others were very loud, Kristine couldn't hear them all. Instead, all she heard was heart beating which confirmed her emotions for Seeker.
She was very nervous as to what this meeting meant.
Seeker was standing and was lost in his thoughts. The Adult appeared nearby.
"You're finally doing this, huh? What happened? Was it the Tyrant Empress? You have always managed to control your emotions against her, and maybe because of my influence, you focused on Zeraphine." The Adult asked.
"That's the only explanation. It's definitely because of the Tyrant Empress. Her appearance awakened my desires that somehow, it managed to match your obsession with Zeraphine. I think your obsession with Zeraphine was stronger. But now, the two became equal, and I'm more confused than ever." The Child sighed.
"It's your life, your body. I'll be here to help whichever Path you choose."
Unknown to them, Zeraphine and Shakstress were listening.
Zeraphine was angry. She was thinking of revealing herself, but then she hesitated.
"I... can't reveal myself!" Zeraphine cursed.

"Why won't you do that? Why not just reveal yourself?" Shakstress asked.

"When I died and transferred myself to Seeker, it wasn't until he became an Overcomer that I was able to reform this soul. His Path allowed me to slowly and subtly gain sentience. The Adult Seeker is the one that I love. The younger one isn't the real one that I love. But it's the Child who is the real boss of this body. After all, it's that Seeker who is the Overcomer. I only planned to reveal my identity if it saved the Adult. But revealing it now will only make the Child pursue Kristine more. Then, he would realize that I have been manipulating his emotions!"
"Ah... You're afraid that the Child would conclude that he doesn't like Zeraphine but was under a spell."
"You've seen how arrogant this Child is. His pride won't allow it. And the Adult won't ever go against the Child. He knows his place in this body and respects it. I know him. He's too kind for that!"
"Then reveal yourself only to the Adult then."
"No. I don't want to remain this way, Shakstress. The technology of the Lost Primordial and the mysteries of the Unlocking is something that can resurrect the two of us! I don't want to be a spirit."
"I see. You've long plotted to take control of that Zeraphine."
"That's the last resort. That Zeraphine is still me, and I want her to live her life. So either I reform another body, or if I really don't have a choice, I enter Kristine's body."
"Kristine? Why her?"
"She treated my Seeker well. If I'm strong enough, I could give Kristine a lesser body of any random person, maybe even put her in the Tyrant Empress's body. But my goal is to grow stronger. And the Adult Seeker also has to grow strong. When I saw the Paths of the other Overcomers and Nogard, I planned and prepared to create a body as the first choice. This is because I don't want the Child Seeker. I just want MY Seeker. And in order to do that..."
"You need the Adult to become an Overcomer. Only by becoming one does he have the chance of leaving this Seeker's body and move into a new one."
"Yes! He needs to become an Overcomer if he wants to cultivate somehow to create a body, or if it is impossible, then at least transfer his soul as I did. That Cliff is the perfect person who can host the Adult! I don't really care who's the body is. As long as it's my Seeker, I'm ok with it. I've plotted many scenarios but becoming an Overcomer is necessary for the Adult."
"Poor Cliff. Being toyed and experimented around by everyone. So you don't wish to reveal yourself unless the Adult's life is on the line because if you revealed yourself, his chances of becoming an Overcomer will decrease."
"Yes. You've heard what the Pastor Eagle said in the sermons Seeker now listens to."
"Ugh. We are already forced to hear it through Seeker's body. Must we discuss it?" Shakstress scowled.
"Do you even know what verse I'm talking about?"
"Of course! Romans 8:24-25.Hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience. You see? I even know and memorize Scripture now! That strange Path is even affecting me! Eagle said that God has intentionally made His promises, and its fulfillment always becomes something they cannot see, so that they wait for it with endurance. Endurance to bear the weight of the great trials of this world and attain the promises in Revelation. And those are the promises given to the Conquerors, or as the other versions of the Bible translates it, Overcomers."
"You'd make a great preacher Shakstress. Many Aragarians will be blessed and turn to Jesus as you preach." Zeraphine chuckled.

"But you are right. That's what I mean. Should the Adult know that I'm here, it weakens his resolve. His hope will be lost as I will be 'seen'. But if he sees the Child going for Kristine..."
"He will continue to hope for his resurrection and go after Zerahpine."
"Exactly. That's why I can't do it now!"
"Alright. But the two Seeker's shares a certain degree of their emotions. Aren't you afraid that your Seeker will fall in love with Kristine? He already has in his previous life when you were kicked out of the picture."
"That is a possibility, But the Adult Seeker sees hope through this timeline's Zeraphine. He would want to redo the mistakes in his life. He would want to save me again. I'm not worried. His love for me was never that fragile."
"Oh my, how confident!" Shakstress chuckled.
"I must thank you, Zeraphine. Joining you in this body is the best fun I've had in all my life. I am free from the curse of the Primordial, I have you, which I can honestly call a friend, I have hopes of being reborn, and I get front row seats to a fun love story!" Shakstress chuckled as she gazed to watch the eyes through Seeker's perspective.
Kristine had finally reached the room and was standing before Seeker.
"Um... Hi."
"First of all, I'm sorry." Seeker immediately apologized.
"... You do know, you're still my General, right?"
Seeker chuckled.
"I do. But in my other life, you were my General."
"I was?!" Kristine was amazed.
"The truth is, I honestly am confused right now with my emotions. Kristine, my past self really loves you. The Adult Seeker that time traveled in me really loved you. When Zeraphine died, his heart- well... I guess my heart also died. You were the light that made it live again."
"So... it's basically a dilemma. The girl you loved, or me. The one that got you to love again?"
"Yeah. It's exactly that. But I don't know what came over me. It feels like when I met Zeraphine, that unresolved love story, that happy ending that he never got, was finally there. His emotions got the better of me."
"Is that why you sent me away?" Kristine finally asked the question she was dying to find out.
