Lowengren and Alean had finished their preparations and gathered their team and weapons.

The WGP Commanders were watching the phone calls that two made to ensure that they did not contact anyone else. Lowengren was even denied a call to his wife. But of course, they were still able to contact Charles as they had already prepared a phone line wherein Lowengren was trying to call one of the soldiers. As such, the group was able to communicate with each other peacefully.

The WGP Commanders did not suspect the normal phone call as it was fairly short and had a very mundane discussion. Of course, through Lowengren and Alean's ability, the group was already able to inform Charles about their plans.

Soon, Lowengren and Alean brought in a group of twenty men and presented them before Magantae.

"Fleet Admiral. The preparations are ready. I have brought with me a small team of covert spies who will infiltrate the Caliphates. I believe that they are the best of the best."

"None of them will join. We will be going with you, personally." Magantae suddenly declared.

"You-you will be going with us?"

"Yes. I have to ascertain if what you said is true. I have to go. Or are there any issues?"

"None at all, Fleet Admiral. It's an honor."

"How will you infiltrate the base?" The Fleet Admiral asked.

"The attack that Fleet Admiral made caused devastation that weakened the defense of the enemy. In that gap, we can send a small team of soldiers. However, the techs have to be those that cannot be easily scanned. We were planning on bringing several weapons, as you can see." Lowengren pointed to a small crate behind them.

"We can use our techs to hide you. Feel free to bring more weapons." The Commander next to Fleet Admiral Magantae explained.

"Thank you, Commander! But won't the Caliphates know that you are helping us? It will draw suspicion!"

"That's why we need you to create a scene once you complete your mission. We have to make several attacks and make sure that they know it's Africa."

Lowengren was silent.

"Is there a problem with this?" Magantae asked again. This was a very harsh request that the Admiral was asking. Magantae wanted Lowengren to create a scene to ensure that the one that attacked them in Africa. While attacking the Caliphates was logical since the Caliphates had first initiated an attack, this would question the first appearance of Magantae and her commanders.

Magantae was making it clear that she wanted to make it look like Africa had someone pretend to be a WGP official. This act was a severe violation and would draw in great consequences.

"None." Lowengren pretended to sigh.

"Silence!" Fleet Admiral Magantae suddenly shouted as she began to call.

It was here that Empress Everhiss called her daughter and learned that she was in Africa. Everhiss believed that Magantae's departure was not an accident but a plot by these invisible enemies. And so, to take advantage of falling into the trap, Everhiss gave Magantae a mission in securing information about the secret enemies of the WGP through what she believed to be the accidental meeting with General Vender.

Fleet Admiral Magantae had just received her orders from her mother and had revealed several shocking things.

During this time, Alean and Lowengren were able to hear the conversation that Fleet Admiral was having.

"Wow. So she's the daughter of Empress Everhiss." Lowengren was stunned.

"Looks like we found someone interesting. This also sounds like Seeker is about to make his move."

"Yeah. Look's like we can go all out. Whatever we do in Caliphates will simply become yesterday's news because of the attack on the Kraken. And we just somehow managed to draw out the Admiral itself. This ensures that whoever plans to attack the Atlantis will find it much easier." Lowengren laughed.

"And that all because I wanted to stay up on the roof. See? I told you my power had become a Path."

The call had ended, and Magantae turned to everyone else.

"Commanders, we begin our new mission." Magantae explained.

After which, Magantae declared that they would begin their mission.

"Our mission?" The Commanders asked at Magantae's strange declaration after her call.

"What I am about to reveal to you should surprise you. I have long told you all that I am a descendant of the WGP. But the truth is, I am not just a common descent. I am the daughter of Empress Everhiss. My real name is Tanya Magantae Everhiss." The Fleet Admiral declared.

The group was shocked. Lowengren and Alean were there in the same room listening and pretended to be visibly startled at her words.

"Our mission has changed. It seems that there are more traitors than we can imagine. By luck, we found this General who is somehow used by Fleet Admiral Intrik Roovite! My mother is also on the brink of discovering something. The Kraken of Pangea will be attacked!"

"A Kraken? Which nation dares?"

"Not a nation. The WGP itself! We have spies inside our circles. Spies who are bent on taking us down. This Admiral Intrik Roovite could be the least of our problems!"

"What is our new mission, Admiral?" A Commander asked.

"Our aim is to understand what they are after and what they plan to do. We dismantle one plan and reveal it. So our goal changes, but the next mission remains the same. Our mission is to capture General Joab Barak in the Caliphates and prove the connection with Fleet Admiral Intrik. My mother will take care of Intrik. Now that they are guarded, the Kraken in Pangea will be safe, and we will be one step ahead of our enemies." Magantae explained. She then turned towards the group and finally removed her armors, masked and revealed her beautiful and young face.

"Jealous?" Lowengren sneered as he whispered to Alean.

"Is that your type? Want to make her yours? With my Path, it can happen." Alean countered, and Lowengren couldn't rebut.

"General Vender Hirock. If you agree to aid us with everything you know, I promise you that the WGP will help you with technologies. While I cannot promise that your daughter will be cured, the sciences and laboratories you will have will be unmatched in this world. Do you accept?" The Fleet Admiral asked Lowengren.

Lowengren was about to accept when he heard Alean talk.

"Play hardball with them." Alean said.

Lowengren paused for a few seconds. He did not question Alean's suggestion.

"Forgive for being skeptical…" Lowengren began.

"I have been deceived by a Fleet Admiral of the WGP. Why would I trust you?!" Lowengren answered.

"I'm tired of all this! I've been abused, fooled, and mistreated by the WGP. That Admiral even used an EMP Bomb to disable this entire area! He had no intention of keeping his promise but wanted to use the Arabs to kill me! While I'm thankful that you stopped their attack, on what basis can you assure me the same? Maybe you just plan to kill me after you're done. Regardless if I know what I was doing or not, I did betray the WGP! Why would you suddenly be so generous?!" Lowengren adamantly argued.

"You! Don't put the Admiral on the same level as that scum!" One of the Commanders angrily chastised.

The group began to shower their threats towards Lowengren.

"What's next, Alean?" Lowengren asked. He couldn't find the right way to lie his way out.

"Tsk. It's still troublesome. I still can't deceive a group of people. Any suggestions on what to do?"

"I have… a faint feeling." Alean closed her eyes. Due to the mask, no one could tell that she was concentrating."

"That you are on the right track, Lowengren. And for some reason, I feel like my right track is to pierce beyond the present and see what I should do in the future."

It was a Path that no one could explain. It's effects radiated out all over the known dimensions.

For a single second, Alean knew what she needed to do.

Far, far away, in a galaxy that Earth has not yet seen, stood a man who was moving all over the dimensions. He had broken many dimensions but continued to move from one dimension to another. He continued to search for it, the final dimension, but could not find it.

"Still not enough?" He pondered and took a step forward and returned into the three-dimensional plane.

It was then he felt it. He gazed towards the clouds and tried to sense where it came from. He began to move again as if chasing the radiating energy the pulsed throughout the galaxy and the cosmos.

"Prophecy? Was another prophet born?" He pondered as the energy disappeared. He gave a frustrated groan and took a step forward, and disappeared once more.

Back on Earth, Alean felt as if a strange power was drained from her, and she fell down.

The group was surprised at the sudden fall of Alean.

"Al- Lieutenant!" Lowengren exclaimed as he rushed towards Alean.

"Lowengren. You have to deceive them! We need to get as much as we can from them. I felt the power leave me! Something good will happen if we control the flow when we are on the other side! Do your best..." Alean secretly explained.

What's wrong with her?" One of the Commander's wondered.

"Ha Ha Ha… It's all over. It looks like it's too late…" Lowengren began to laugh as if he suddenly turned mad.

"Why do you think that a loving father like me would cheat on my wife? Was it only due to my perversion? I fell in love with the Lieutenant General! She has sacrificed so much for my daughter and even became a willing experiment to take on her illness!"

The Commanders heard it and suddenly, unconsciously drew back. They all knew what illness General Vender's daughter had as they've seen the reports. And this sickness was something that the WGP called the Plague.

Due to the lack of research, it was not certain whether or not the illness was contagious. Lowengren and Alean knew this as they had discussed it with Charles.

"You! Madman! That illness could infect us all!" One of the Commanders shouted in shock.

"Ha Ha Ha! And with that, I determined that you do not have the means to heal this illness!

So why should I help you? What else can you offer?" Lowengren dared.

The Fleet Admiral was cursing. The reckless actions of her commanders caused her relationship with General Vender to deteriorate.

"As I said, we do not have the cure to that disease. But we can help you by providing the best medical assistance." The Admiral immediately interrupted.

"Then how can I trust your words? The way I see it, something happened that made you reveal your lineage. You're going all-in on this, right? You think that if you succeed in this mission of yours, you'll get great rewards. Well, I can imagine that! Apprehending someone who will betray the WGP will surely make you an Empress of this world! But the way I see it, If I don't cooperate, you won't succeed! If I'm wrong, then let me die, right here, right now!" Lowengren then did something no one expected.

He quickly reached for the nearby weapons that he brought and aimed for his head.

BANG!

Right before he could pull the trigger, the Empress shot the gun off his arms.

"Ha Ha Ha! I'm right!" Lowengren laughed.

"You need me more than I need you now! You offer a hopeless aid that can't even cure my daughter! Why should I tell you what I need? I have long planned our raid to kill this General Joab Barak! I know the contacts that can help me move deeper within the building! I don't care what you guys think! I know my worth! And since I am on the edge of death, and my daughter will die anyway, I'd rather have some fun!"

Everyone was silent and stared at the Admiral. Alean had already fainted from suddenly overexerting herself and was in the arms of Lowengren.

"You seem to be mistaken. Do you think you are worth the trouble? You are only a convenient option. I am confident that the techs I have can bridge the gap of your so-called contacts. I am a future Empress. Know your place!"

"Know my place?! I have something that you don't!"

"What?"

"Why will I tell you?! Did you think that I made my deal with Intrik alone? I have made deals with Doctor Lennox Humphrey himself! And with me, are his weapons that can unlock all doors!" Lowengren boasted.

Upon hearing Doctor Lennox Humphrey, the group was startled.

"You lie. Not anyone can-"

Lowengren reached out of his hand and revealed a small orb.

"Your techs couldn't detect this. But if I arm it, you would know what power is! Behold. The Cube of Lightning!" Lowengren armed the cube with a complicated twist.

The charged power appeared and caused several alarms on the suits Magantae and her Commanders.

Everyone was startled. The tech was marvelous, and they didn't know how it worked.

"It could probably even kill some of you!" Lowengren laughed.

The Commanders formed a perimeter around Magantae.

"Wait! I can promise you that we will even take care of your daughter should you die on this mission! I will adopt her as my own so that she will reside within the WGP's finest bases where she will receive care!" Magantae laid down her terms.

Lowengren gave another crazy laugh.

"What can you do to promise or assure that? Words are useless! You need me more than I need you!"

"Then make your demands! Anything within my power, and within the time that we have, I will do!" Magantae declared.

Lowengren knew that this was an important tipping point in the negotiation against the WGP. As for his mission, he may have to face it all on his own since Alean is out. He didn't know how long Alean would stay knocked out.

"It's all up to me, huh? I would have to fight by myself and even protect Alean. But her Path should never be underestimated. She did that, and it was with purpose. I am on the right Path." Lowengren smirked. 

"Cliff and Seeker will have their battles in the Kraken, but mine and Alean will not be any less dangerous." Lowengren took a deep breath. Witnessing how Alean somehow over-drafted her Path made Lowengren realize that there was something that he must do to improve his Path. This was a battle that he must face. And he knew it would be just as hard and even harder as the challenges the rest will face.

"General Vender!" Magantae called out as Lowengren had actually spaced out.

"Fine! I have a simple demand!" Lowengren decided to experiment. There must be more to bluffs and deception than what he believes to be.

"Prove your sincerity to me! This mission will be possibly my last! I'm sure you will try to kill me or betray me once I've outlived my uses!"

"Trying to prove our sincerity and intentions are useless since you have already made your own conclusions. If it is possible, I will let you do it!" The Admiral then sent a message to the Commanders.

"Be prepared. We do not know what he will request. Send a command to the Atlantis to request for a Satellite drop if necessary. He might want to send his daughter to the Kraken or Atlantis! He might insist on sending his daughter or might kill himself now!" The Admiral communicated.

The Commanders immediately made their preparations to activate a communication ping to the Atlantis.

"Let me bring…" Lowengren began.

The Admiral frowned. He expected General Vender to ship her daughter to a WGP hospital immediately. But with Lowengren's phrase, it seemed that he wanted to send her daughter in personally.

"We don't have the time to-"

"… my dildos."

General Vender wanted to bring his dildos to the Caliphate nations.

"Let me bring my dildos!" Lowengren declared with a serious voice.
