The massive orbital that was headed toward Earth was now approaching the Sol Solar System.

The dwarf planet, which had been reinstated as part of the official planets of the Sol system, Pluto was in view.

The massive Orbital was losing power fast due to the great battles that occurred within.

But as it approached, another Orbital that came from Mars approached.

Inside the Orbital, was Enderks who watched the state of the ship.

"So... That's the Orbital. It looks like the battle it faced inside is even worse than the battles on Earth... No wonder they got delayed. They were supposed to be here three weeks ago... But it got delayed. And now, it would even take them close to a month if they assimilate with my ship." Enderks smiled as he urged the Orbital to move ahead.

"I wonder... who lived and who died? Is Presider Marrho even among them?" Enderks wondered.

"Oh. You underestimate me, Enderks." A laugh was heard.

But Enderks was not worried.

"Lightning Projection. I would have panicked if I was myself before..." Enderks smiled as he turned around.

"I see that you... devoured one of the Devourer Five."

"Devourer Five? Only one of them remains now. He even devoured one of them. Honestly, I never knew he had it in him to even eat the person who was practically his wife." Marrho chuckled.

"In any case, who was your Presider War?"

Enderks's expression changed.

"I'll save it for my report to Principal Dormin."

"Oh? It couldn't possibly have been as bad as the ones we had. We nearly destroyed the ship. Some of us were even leading the rest to enter Principal Dormin's quarters and they were instantly killed."

"Then you must have seen Principal Dormin's strength. Are you close to it?"

"My real strength? I've long surpassed that. My current... no."

"Tell me. Why is Prime Defiant acting like a slave here in this world? You're not the big stack bully in that Orbital, are you?"

"Big Stack Bully?"

"Oh. Sorry. I thought since you were once Crostfree, you'd have his memories. It's earth language. You're not the Top Tower Presider inside the Orbital, right?"

"If you had Crostfree's body, then I would have killed you. But you're right. I'm not the strong one. We were all shocked. We thought it would be me, Presider Render, or even, one of the five. But the one that rose is a Conqueror. Even I envy him."

"Was it a Presider, or someone below it?"

"A Presider, of course. Although, several Pioneers have risen and become Presiders now and taken over their master's army. Anyway, Principal Dormin is here."

"I just hope that Principal Dormin would not take offense."

"He's not interested, Enderks. Or should I say, Renkerdis? Besides... To him, we're all food once we start ascending. A Presider is not any good meet. But a Principal, now that's a different story for a devouring Principal like Dormin."

"Tell me, why is he allowed to do this? Me and you are potential snacks that he will have if we do ascend. And he is among the low tiers of Principals. So why him?" 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎

"Low tiers? There is not much of a difference between the Low Tiers and the Mid Tiers. But obviously, the point of this was to turn things from a Presider War to a clash of Principals. Who will Conquer this battle? Will it be us, the new Principals that would rise, or will it be him? The hungry predator? You know the many battles we all faced in history. The Bebalians charted a map of victory but were defeated at the last moments. All these wars have the same purpose. To create someone more powerful. Come. Principal Dormin awaits."

The two massive Orbitals began to meet. But as the two approached, they both merged and the two were being reconstructed.

It wasn't just that the two orbitals physically reformed themselves, it was altered into a whole new different thing even in the dimensions beyond.

No longer was it an Orbital and close to becoming a planet!

The telescopes back at the moon's earth caught sight of this and new reports were being scattered around the globe.

Panic and chaos ensued and many civil wars emerged as many didn't know what to do with them.

Chaos rose and the only places that had peace were countries where a City of Refuge was built, or in countries that created a Babel Tower.

As the earth panicked, Enderks moved to meet the Principal.

He had seen the inside and saw the surviving Presiders that had been changed by war and was impressed. Aside from two Mid-Tiers, and five Low-Tiers that were former Pioneers, the surviving Presiders were all Top Tiers.

"Renkerdis? Servant of Erregnos!" A Top-Tier frowned.

"Oh? Someone who has stolen some things from my master? Why don't you be a good dog and give it back to me!" Enderks laughed.

"You!"

"Enough." A voice boomed as the entire planet began to change.

The Orbital was instantly reshaped into a whole new world and Dormin was seen seated on top of a high mountain that formed.

"Renkerdis, huh? Your seniors gave me a lot of hardships. I could even attribute my defeat to them." Principal Dormin appeared. His appearance in the fourth dimension was spilling fort. He was like a huge bear with a large monstrous mouth that seemed to be devouring light itself!

"Principal... I thank you for not ending my life."

"Hmph. No point doing it now. If you survive the second phase of the Presider War, then I shall eat you." Dormin chuckled.

"Tell me... How were your battles? How long did your little Presider war take? I sense a few left out of more than a dozen of you."

"...That is why I agreed to meet with you, Principal. Earth has many mysteries. The actual war that took place and the death of many Presiders only occurred within a day!" Renkerdis's expression changed.

"A day?!" Many Presiders reacted.

Even Marrho was stunned.

"Yes. Crostfree was the first to die. After that, each Presider had their own skirmishes. I could see the plot everyone had. Alliances were made among the weak. And I had no choice but to do the same."

"Hmph. Alliances. How is it that you have survived if you were so weak to do those things? Are you even a Conqueror?" Dormin sneered.

"That's the thing... There is another power rising. The Earthlings have won. Now as a planet. They have birthed groups, organizations, and armies, that are led by an individual similar to how Presiders lead an army. They don't call themselves Conquerors but desire to create a shared throne. The Overcomers."

Dormin was startled as he heard those words.

"Overcomers? Are you certain?"

"Yes."

"Interesting. Did you know, that was what the Lost Primordial called himself back then? Someone who would not rise alone. So they really are coming back. And they won the first half!"

"They are changing the landscape of the battle. Principal, the whole Earth may be our enemy unless we kill them."

"We? Why should I kill them?" Dormin laughed.

"But...! Their very presence created a strange... change in the flow of the battle! I didn't understand it at first. But something strange is happening on earth. The power of Fate, or something stronger is at work! It's helping the people of Earth win! Garenjazz was defeated! His luck ran out!" Renkerdis exclaimed.

"What?!"

"That Garenjazz lost?"

"Impossible!"

Many began to react to those words.

Marrho was startled.

"That Presider lost?" Marrho frowned.

"How did he lose?" Dormin asked.

"I was not around when he lost. All Presiders were tricked and fought at once. We were forced to fight an end-game battle and were all unprepared. But Garenjazz was always ready. Yet he lost! We have to destroy these Earthlings!"

"...No. They will join the second half of this Presider War." Dormin smiled.

"What?! But... They are earthlings!" fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

"So? We were once Earthlings in the ages long ago."

"But they should not be part of this Presider Wars!"

"Really? Why? From your words, I am even more certain that they are Presiders. They might not be Presiders by how we define it just as how the Lost Primordial was not a Primordial by strict definition. You could call these Earthlings Lost Presiders. But they are still Presiders. And the laws set to me apply. A Principal cannot directly attack a Presider unless they attack first." Dormin sneered.

"Lord Principal... Then they are actual candidates?" Marrho asked.

"Yes. If they fight and defeat me and become a Principal, then they can join the Principal war. And as the laws state, if they win, they will be the only Principal around this area and will have full control of this ship. I can tell you with all confidence, that they will be the owners if they defeat me. I will only fight them if they succeed and kill you all and ascend to be a Principal. Be it by form, or by deeds." Dormin smiled.
