The Ultimate Support Character



CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

Like glasses shattering from a specific vibration frequency, the gradually opening Portals to the designated Mine World that had recently sent an urgent report were simultaneously destroyed. It was a peculiar occurrence that the Transcendent Experts tasked to watch over the process of the gradual widening of the Portals found it baffling.

They immediately sprang up to their feet and inspected the wisp of Source Energy about to dissipate from the location of the supposed Portals.

"Quick! Inform the Lord. The Mine World has been destroyed. The Portals lost its link to the Mortal World and simultaneously closed."

Upon arriving at that conclusion, Rank 1 Transcendent servants were hurriedly sent out to relay the urgent report directly to the Sage while the others used a communication device to inform the high-ranking Transcendents tasked to lead a force to capture the rats.

The same as what the Great Ones of the Dark World did to the Mortal Worlds connected to Earth, this Invasive Transcendent World was forcefully opening a Portal to the Mine World through the use of the coordinates that accompanied the urgent report received hours earlier.

Having deemed the situation urgent, the Sage Rank Ruler of the Serpentine Empire ordered the immediate mobilization of Rank 4 Transcendents to expel or capture the intruder of the Mine World.

The mobilization consisted of two separate troops; experts from this 'Serpentine World' who will be traveling through Portals and experts from outside the World sent to other Mine Worlds or Fortress Worlds close to the target Mine World.

However, with the Portals shattering here, they indicated the destruction of the Mine World.

"The world is located two World Zones away. Six hours should be enough to widen the Portal to allow passage of Rank 4 Transcendents. In that short timeframe, the enemies destroyed that World. Even if they have a device to extract the Source Energy Core, it shouldn't be this quick." Wondered the Rank 4 Transcendent overseeing the Portals.

After further contemplating what happened, he sent his findings to his superior.

Boom!

Minutes later, an explosion of Source Energy could be seen at the tower where the Sage Rank resides.

Whatever that meant sent terror to every denizen of the World. Even the World's Will silently residing in its abode shuddered in horror.

Upon extracting the Source Energy Core, I quickly flew out of that location before I got buried under that floating island.

Source Energy was quickly dissipating and even with its natural red sky, an image of an impending apocalypse had begun its sequence.

With the Source Energy repelling the Chaotic Energy of space disappearing, it started flowing into the surface of the world.

It created gigantic thunderstorms that seemed like they were about to send a Lightning Tribulation.

The ever-erupting volcanoes and the sea of lava at the surface boiled like it had never been before, burning the remaining denizens that failed to enter the Portals I opened that would send them to various Mortal Worlds connected to Earth. The floating islands immediately became unstable as the dwindling Source Energy became insufficient to power the floating devices.

I could see the Mortal Rank noble denizens of this world residing in those luxurious islands frantically running around like headless chickens as chaos gradually ensued.

They lost the protection of the strong foreign Transcendents and they also lost the coddling presence of the World's Will. They're now in the last few seconds or minutes of their existence.

The sudden pop-up of foreign Portals possibly from the Transcendent World where Ferne sent his report also disappeared since there's no more Source Energy to maintain them.

The problem of being faced against higher rank Serpent Sentinels went down.

However, we're not done here yet. We also have to make our escape.

I could open a Portal using my System Skill: Support Recall but it needs to be at a Source Energy World. And with our strength exceeding Rank 2 Transcendent, opening it instantly like before wasn't possible anymore. The Portal had to be widened enough to give us a stable passage to the other side. I could shorten the process through my overwhelming Energy Control, however, it would still take a few hours. And we don't have that much time.

It's a lot better to traverse the Chaotic Space instead and fly away from the ruined Mortal World.

As soon as I returned to the Kingfisher, Nysia who was at the helm immediately piloted it to fly away from here. I ward off the corruption of Chaotic Energy encroaching on us and cut away the few asteroids falling from space having lost the electromagnetic field of the ruined Mortal World.

Using 10% of the Chaotic Energy barrels as fuel to boost the Space Vessel's acceleration, the view outside the windows became nothing but a vast nothingness apart from the light of the distant stars in just a few minutes.

After checking and helping my Companions who got exhausted fighting, I carried them to their rooms one at a time, transferring a part of my Source Energy and easing their worries. Once that was done, I made my way to the brig where we put all of our captives.

At one particular isolation room is the veiled woman, wearing her tattered dress while suspended on the wall with shackles covering her whole body.

It's a necessary precaution to prevent her from escaping from our grasp.

She's still weakened from the wound she suffered from me but at this point, she's pretty much in the process of recovery.

A Rank 3 Transcendent like her is like Alwyn. Even if she's not from a Physique-type World, her Transcendent Body that was tempered by Source Energy was already strong enough to have a speedier recovery than those weaker than her. Only if there's a lingering wound that was preventing her body from natural recovery would she not see any improvement.

lightsΝοvel "Yuko. Yse."

As I stopped my steps, I called two women standing behind the glass window and peering into the isolation room.

"Dai-kun. Don't you need to rest too?" Yuko turned around to face me and as always, her concern for me was overflowing.

I failed to resist pulling her into my embrace. My lovely Companion welcomed it, making Yse wryly smile.

"Later. I'll rest with you." I answered Yuko after giving her a kiss before turning to Yse, "Sorry for acting like this Yse."

"It's fine. Haven't I shown you a more embarrassing moment in our world?"

Ah. She's not wrong. Back there, she's like a dominatrix when it comes to her relationship with the Spirit King Ezyn.

We both burst into laughter, easing up the somewhat heavy mood inside this room.

Soon afterward, we turned back to the situation at hand.

"Dai-kun. When you said you're going to let your Avatar live with her, are you going to act like her guardian?"

"I think so, yes." My answer was swift. I could understand Yuko's concern. It's not just about us but also the outcome of doing that. The woman, even without her memories and having a new identity will become attached to my Avatar, or me. She's probably concerned that our destinies might converge at one point.

It's not impossible but after regaining my memories, I believe a mere Avatar cannot influence my destiny that much.

"I see… Only you can ensure that she won't be a threat to us."

"Yes. If not for that Eye, my sword would've already cut her in two."

Somehow, even though I couldn't detect any hint of negativity through Yuko's words, Yse who was listening in on us had a complicated expression.

Is she the one worrying about us now? I don't know.

In any case, we moved on from that topic soon and I told them about what we're going to do from now on.

We'll be returning to the World of Tree Spirits and creating a Portal to return to Earth. We will deliver our captives and let the old fossils and the hateful World's Will deal with them before going back out.

Of course, we won't be retracing our steps and will choose a different path to avoid the organization.

And while we're at it, I will be using the Source Energy Core to push us to Rank 4 Transcendent.

Hopefully, that will be enough.
