The Ultimate Support Character



[Sword Path: Master (19%)

Weaponsoul Grade: 1 (48)]

[Stored Chaotic Energy: 2]

Upon cutting down the last of the small Space Vessels along with its pilot my hands rattled in exhaustion. Looking at the blinking window at the corner of my eyes, by simply singing my sword according to my created Sword Style was enough to make progress.

I didn't have a convenient system like this during my past life. All I did was swing and get enlightenment whether I was close to breaking through my Sword Path.

But then again, it wasn't an easy battle. My Swordforce actually got emptied for the first time. Momo even disappeared along with the Swordforce. The little dumpling is probably snoring inside the weapon. Just like how I was progressing in my Sword Path, the Weaponsoul was also being nourished. Even the Willful Sword had changed so much that it became unrecognizable from its original appearance when I first got it from Yuko.

The lightning streaks that it absorbed from the Transcendent Body Tribulation gave it a golden hue. The Dark Energy skill that it absorbed from a Dark World Transcendent prevented that gold from shining. And lastly, the blue and red from blood and Swordforce forged it to not only be durable but also sharp enough to cut through the reinforced structure of Space Vessels.

Right. How many Rank 3 Transcendents did I manage to cut down?

8 during the first wave and 18 during the second.

Their bodies were now floating lifelessly around me.

Was it easy? Hell no.

I had a trick up my sleeve so I managed to end it swiftly. Using Chaos Veil alongside my Sword Path threw them into confusion. When they thought they could block my sword, they'd be hit by the corruption of Chaotic Energy.

And with the Energy Projectiles that randomly sprouted from behind me, I managed to mask that trick underneath those projectiles' flashy appearance.

But looking at how that large Space Vessel was reacting, the Rank 4 Transcendent inside possibly misunderstood.

If I'm not wrong, he'll be coming out next to catch me.

The first wave was a probe.

The second wave was to push me over the edge.

If the fight took longer than how it happened, a third wave could've been sent out.

By then, being captured by them would be inevitable if I still fight. I'd be forced to use the Concealment Aura to get away as much as possible before we start a wild goose chase.

However, that's not my plan.

It's always about luring the Rank 4 Transcendent away and disappearing while being chased by them.

"Yeah. I can still stick to my plan. I just have to put on a poker face and ride that misunderstanding."

I sheathed the Willful Sword and quickly looted their weapons and Storage Equipment that were in the form of necklaces and other accessories.

No matter how trivial their treasures are in my eyes, they can still be useful to us. The Dragon Couple could use some upgrades in their Output Enhancing Equipment as well as the Heroes and other Transcendents back on Earth.

Even if the old fossils managed to make a bank from the invaders that they intercepted, there's nothing wrong with bringing more. And the ones at the disposal sites like Atlantis had one way or another, a defect. Furthermore, not everyone could pass the trial to get something there.

What little contribution to building up our world's strength would always be welcome. Until more experts became produced and Earth returned to being a Sage World powerhouse, our priority after our strength and safety would be the recovery of our world.

Anyway, it was not even a minute when the hangar of the large Space Vessel opened again and as it streaked past me, they flew in different directions rather than going after me.

That got me a little guarded since if they started ignoring me, that would mean the time I was buying for my Companions could only be extended up to here.

I started preparing to chase and shoot some of them down to act like I was becoming desperate. However, as soon as I saw someone with a larger presence emerging out of the large Space Vessel, I stopped and focused all of my attention on him.

There, I saw someone with navy blue skin and a giant yet lean stature draped in what could be a military uniform. On his side, a rolled-up whip was dangling, possibly his weapon choice.

Perhaps if we stood in front of each other, I would only be half as tall as him. Furthermore, he might look humanoid but he had three pairs of eyes.

One pair at the usual spot just about the nose.

One pair at his forehead.

And the last pair at the sides of his neck.

They're blinking in sync and they all possess deep black pupils.

Considering how he was at ease floating in the Chaotic Space, I placed the Transcendent Aura that broke mine earlier as his.

As the large Space Vessel left us behind by continuing on its straight trajectory, I cautiously started circulating my Source Energy.

I couldn't afford to make a mistake here.

I'm exhausted and all I have left in my arsenal are the Skills from my five Pathways.

"Whoever you are, I admire your bravery." The six-eyed Transcendent started. "I am Teriopa Ageshan, a lauded Serpent Knight of the Overworld Serpent. I will give you an offer. Surrender to me now or… I'm going to beat you half to death."

Even though his voice was being delivered in the Chaotic Space, it didn't suffer any distortion. It was so loud and clear that it almost punctured my eardrums.

Is that part of his ability? Possibly. And given that it lacked the essence of Source Energy, it's something inherent for whatever race he came from.

"And here I thought you're coming here to negotiate with me." I cast a confident mask on my face to prevent him from probing my true state.

Without moving stiffly, I watched as he gradually closed the gap of a few kilometers in a short time.

From a normal human's perspective, it would look like he's teleporting. But no, he's walking nonchalantly as though there's a ground beneath his feet.

"Negotiate? You lot threw that away when you decided to steal the Mine World's Source Energy Core."

Mine World? I see. So, it's probably their proper term for a Slave World.

"Ah. We're not the ones who stole it. But you won't believe me, if I say that, right?"

"Indeed. You cannot point fingers at anyone else if you tried to hinder us from pursuing your true Space Vessel."

The six-eyed Transcendent showed a bit of reaction when I mentioned that. He managed to figure out that something doesn't add up.

It should be impossible to quickly extract a Source Energy Core and make a run for it a few hours ahead.

We're merely a motley crew of Rank 3 Transcendents, even if we're from a Sage World, we shouldn't have that capability.

Of course, they had no idea that I was the focal point of why it became possible.

lightsΝοvεl ƈοm But this doubt that was already rooted in his mind would point him to something…

"Won't it be more reasonable to think that the culprit is a Sage Rank expert?

"Or it's a Sage Rank expert from your world. Don't play smart with me. Even if we fail to recover the Source Energy Core from you, we'll find out the culprit after interrogating you or, if you want, prying into your memory. You and your comrades will not be spared."

The six-eyed Transcendent easily disregarded the seed of doubt that I tried to plant in his mind.

But that's fine. Planting it is enough.

That's my goal.

Looking at how he paused for a moment, he should've relayed that doubt to someone else through a communicator. Possibly his superior.

With that done, it's about time for me to bail out.

"Sorry, but being captured by you is not within my task."

At the same time as I said that, I immediately flew away from the spot. I retracted my Source Energy and contained it inside my body.

In this way, I would be riding the inherent Chaotic Energy in this vast nothingness. Thanks to my assimilation to a Chaosworld, this would give me the sensation of being a fish in a pond of clear water.
