The Ultimate Support Character

A stronger than a normal opponent. His UPL has exceeded everyone here and it shows when the four at the front warily took a step back, leaving the fallen statue alone.

Although there's only one, the terrifying sense from the energy currently gathering on the tip of the tall figure's pointed finger was enough for them to think about their lives.

A few seconds later, the energy accumulating from his finger, under their watchful eyes, shot forward while producing deafening noises.

WOONG!

"Dodge it, Faren!"

Monady shouted immediately upon noticing its trajectory. Although Faren also noticed it, his reaction time was slow.

In a blink of an eye, the energy attack from the tall figure traversed the distance between him and Faren. From how fast it was, it could be compared to my Vanishing Steps wherein it instantly achieved the maximum speed.

Although his reaction was a bit slow, Faren still managed to pull out something from his pouch. Along with the Quintuple Shields from my Bulwark of Invulnerability, three crimson pillars shot out and embedded on the ground around him.

After pouring out his stored energy into the three pillars, a thin energy film extended from each pillar forming a triangular shield with him as the center.

When the tall figure's attack arrived a split second later, the Quintuple Shields were broken one by one, diminishing the force of that attack to at least half of what it should have been.

Thanks to that, when it hit the thin energy film made from his crimson pillars, the energy attack dissipated without being able to break past it.

However, the seemingly flawless crimson pillars from earlier had a glaring crack indicating the damage done to them. Faren's whole body was also dripping with sweat.

To hold off that attack, he poured in more than half of his stored energy along with the energy absorbed by the pillars from the surroundings.

Perhaps, if he didn't pull out those crimson pillars to block it, there's no Faren anymore.

"You blocked it? Nice." The tall figure said as if Faren blocking his attack hasn't affected him.

After a while, he continued his crazed laugh while watching the four continue backing away from him.

And amidst the tall figure's crazed laugh, two more figures appeared from the darkness behind him. The two stepped forward and stood at his sides. Like him, they're also taller than average. On his right is a woman with blonde hair and a lean build, the yellowish aura covering her body was a little weaker than him while the other is a tall man in black-rim glasses who stood at his left. He's calmly observing the surroundings or specifically, Faren and the place where he resisted the tall figure's energy attack.

At this moment, there are only three of them. However, the pressure coming off from them was more than what we experienced during that fight with the five Rank 2 Transcendents.

Moreover, these three… I can only guess earlier due to that yellowish aura but upon seeing the three of them and comparing them to those we encountered, it's possible that they're not a denizen of the Gigant World.

The force of that simple compression of energy on his finger was more than a full-powered punch or kick of a Gigant World Rank 2 Transcendent.

Observing them from where I am, calling them taller than average is not an exaggeration. On Earth, it will not be wrong to call the three of them giants. The one in the middle is nearing 4 meters and the other two are ranging between 3 and 3.5 meters.

Since the possibility has already passed my mind and I have already read it on one of the scrolls… If they're not a native, they're possibly a denizen of a higher world. Denizens of Gobos.

"What's wrong? Why are you retreating? He even blocked my attack, you know? Even now, you're still at an advantage. There are only three of us here." The tall man who already had his hands in his pockets had a look of ridicule on his face. His eyes scanned among the four and when it reached Monady, his longer than normal tongue peeked out of his mouth and licked his lips as if he found a prey he couldn't wait to get his hands on.

"Sir Larnel, stop playing anymore. Finish what we came here for. You already got your hands on various women of that world." The blonde woman said. Judging from the bit subservient and respectful tone she had, she seemed to be a subordinate or a close aid of the one in the middle she called Larnel.

Her words somehow proved my guess. Women of that world, huh? So is he just a lecherous young master from a higher world?

"Rowena, do you think I am playing? I am only asking them. Besides, the women there all tasted sour because of their filthy Pathway."

"You still enjoyed them, nonetheless."

"Women are women, if only you also offer yourself to me then I will be more than satisfied."

"I'm not yours. Beat your brother and become the head of the company if you want to have me." The blonde woman declared.

"That, I will do. You wait for it."

I don't know their circumstances but from their conversation, it firmly confirmed my guess. They're denizens of a higher world but they're probably sent down to train or to do something else, who knows? And with a stroke of luck, they entered this Dimensional Space and entered a manor. Now, they're trapped in here with us.

Perhaps they are disinclined to move earlier but after the loss of that five, they now decided to make a move and finish all of us.

Although that's an undeniable show of extreme confidence, most of the people here are Rank 2 Transcendent. There's a gap in our UPL true but it's not like it will be easy to take down all 20 of us with just the three of them.

What we have to do here is to carefully gauge these three's prowess.

Having thought of these, I sent Monady all my speculations through a telepathic message. Although she didn't look back at me, the simple jolt of her body was enough to know that she received it.

"According to the data I gathered, if this team is the same team who wiped out five of the Gigantian. There should be six of them and not five. Another one is beyond this darkness together with the fifth one." The man in glasses stated before fixing his glasses like what an anime character will do. Their conversation was completely ignored by him.

Upon hearing the man in glasses' words, Irja turned her head to me. Perhaps she thought it's a shame that I was detected this early but I expected this development. These enemies were not stupid. They're watching earlier and they surely deduced that the ambushed one was a scout and we six only came in to rescue him.

"Contact Grenol and the others, these three aren't normal Gigant World denizens and we need back-up or we have to retreat. They're possibly a denizen of a higher world and I'm afraid we're not a match against these three even with my skills." Since she's already looking at me, I also sent a telepathic message to her along with all the speculations I passed to Monady.

Irja looked at me for a while before nodding. She took out a crystal and immediately reported the situation to Grenol.

After that, I consulted the map again to see the position of the other scouts. One of the scouts that should've been looking out for enemies was behind them. No, he's in the direction they came from.

However, he's currently stationary as if he's afraid of moving from where he was.

He's not captured. Otherwise, his captors would've shown on the map. It's hard to verify his status so I had Irja contact him as well but he's not answering.

Furthermore, these three didn't appear in that guy's 100-meter range despite coming in from that direction...

Are they capable of invisibility? No. They could've ambushed Monady and the others with it if that's the case.

"Rowena, if they're behind them, the two are either experts at long-range battle or a support. Take them down." The man in glasses continued. He's still calmly standing from where he was without any change in his expression.

"I don't take orders from you Yordi," the blonde woman remarked.

However contrary to her words, she instantly vanished from her spot and reappeared 50 meters forward. The yellowish aura grew in intensity which blinded Monady and Udann who was about to block them. Although it only blinded them, the tall guy called Larnel sent two more finger attacks aimed at the two which made them stop to dodge it.

Seeing the approaching enemy, Irja at my side put back the crystal in her hand after reporting to Grenol and once again wielded her broom-like Output Enhancing Equipment.

She waved it in front of her and colorful spheres of energy were simultaneously produced which instantly shot off towards Rowena.

Likewise, I opened Bedeviled Outburst and produced Energy Explosion Projectiles which melded with Irja's attacks mid-air.

"I see. Two long-range combatants." Concluding her observation like that, Rowena's yellowish aura expanded before she seemingly disappeared again, dodging all of our attacks aimed at her.

"Irja! jump here!" Sensing where she would appear, I shouted towards the girl, I extended my arm and made a grabbing motion, using my Energy Manipulation to somehow emulate Telekinesis by controlling the energy around her to push her to my arms.

Thanks to my Adaptability, I instantly sensed her through the disturbance of energy particles around us.

As soon as I caught Irja, I tightened my hold on her before instacasting one of the variations of Flash Steps to propel us backward.

At the same time as that happened, the blonde tall woman reappeared in the air above Irja's previous spot and kicked down furiously.

CRACK! BOOM!

With Irja disappearing from that spot, her foot hit the ground which instantly created a resounding explosion, debris and dust particles flying all around.

From how strong her kick was, even the spot I was in previously was engulfed by it.

When the dust settled, the woman had a look of disappointment on her face as she stared at the crater she made from her simple kick.

"You. How did you notice?" Slowly, Rowena lifted her head and stared straight at me.

"Lucky guess? Where else will you reappear if not around us?"

As if I will tell her. And although I answered her, I continued to pull away from her that I had no time to check about the woman in my arms.

Luckily, Irja's build was geared towards smaller women which made it enough for me to hold her in one of my arms.
