Me and friend of mine watched just Second Reality demo.
The big glenz part of the demo and the little glenz there intersectin each others. Or does it? Is it even possible to code glenz inside glenz?

No, the first blue Glenz is transparent and seems to be inside the big red also transparent one.
Short answer: Capture a frame of that demo using dosbox and then bring it into deluxepaint or photoshop or something and look at the palette. You'll see how the ordering of the palette helped with the effect.
If you have much more CPU time, you can precalc a 256x256 lookup table that has the transparent pixel for each row- and col-pixel in the table. Then you can put down any number of "transparent" polys (although too many and it will look like mud).

I think the time has come where one has to explain what a palette is.... we're too old.
