The Ultimate Support Character

Within the west part and near the boundary of the unified territory of the Heavenly Lightning Tribe, a previously annexed tribe has now been raised into a fortress never before seen in the Desolate Plains. It was the current camp and base of operations of the Whiteshade Division of the tribe.

Unlike the usual tribal grounds that were only enclosed by fences made from beast bones, the fortress was raised by utilizing the dry earth of the Desolate Plains. With the help of Yuko, Noelle and their Blessings, the much-needed water for most construction was conjured from her World Energy.

Currently, inside one of the rooms located within the tallest structure of the fortress, Yuko, Zerina, Erin and Avelin were having their own private meeting, discussing the new surges of strong Dark Energy that covered the whole world.

"Daisuke, he's back." Avelin, who was sitting on a soft bed made from the wools of a sheep-like beast that was pulled from deep in the Mountain Beast Range by the Dark Beastmasters, was trembling in excitement as she muttered these words.

"And along with him, another sister for us. That monster, ever since leaving this world, has been picking up new women left and right. And he had the gall to give me that ultimatum. I'll make him rescind that one." Erin gnashed her teeth as she hit a table carved from a shoulder blade of a giant beast. Although she appeared angry, deep inside, she's just as excited as Avelin at Daisuke's return. True physical return.

Even though Daisuke kept on visiting them with his Energy Incarnation, they still very much wanted to see him in person. Hold him in person and make him feel that what they felt for him before wasn't on impulse. It grew deep inside them.

With only his Energy Incarnation, there's a lot they couldn't do. Especially for Erin whose frequent words coming out of her mouth were how she wanted to carry his child, dumping the ultimatum he presented to her.

"We can expect more sisters joining us in the future. You know, he mentioned one of the Great Ones who's possibly like me and Yuko. Moreover, there's even the Rank 4 Transcendent who he clearly declared that he will come back to take her hand as well as the Rank 3 Transcendent helping him who he got a good impression of. Is he collecting a girl from each Transcendent Rank?" Zerina added. She also appeared gloomy. Nonetheless, she's just keeping it within herself. Daisuke's promise of spending time with her in person will finally be granted.

Furthermore, she's looking forward to seeing his actual growth. From the weak and self-deprecating guy who she pushed out of harm's way months ago, he's able to grow into the reliable guy he is now. Most of them are now all depending on his continued existence. Without him, history will not move the way it was. Perhaps, they will still be at the World of System, repelling the foreign invaders as well as the Corrupted.

"That's Dai-kun for you." With the same enthusiasm as Avelin, Yuko remarked. "Don't worry. Irja, she's also in that vision I saw the same as all of us here."

That same vision she told him that night. She knew that not everyone would take that vision seriously in the beginning. However, now that more and more girls and people she saw in that vision appeared as days continued to pass, she's becoming more confident that it will come true. With Daisuke at the center, they will all be fighting together against all threats encroaching upon the various worlds connected to Earth.

Yuko, like the other three… She's looking forward to having that alone time with him. The last time they were together was that night with Yumiko before he went to the World of Meta.

With the memories she recovered about her relationship with the past and the current Daisuke, she's the one looking forward the most to see him.

Upon hearing Yuko's words, the other three accepted it.

When Daisuke couldn't be contacted after he broke through to the 4th Realm of his Mortal Pathway, Yuko was the only one who remained calm and waited for the time he contacted them, relaying his situation at the enemy world.

She has complete confidence that nothing will happen to him until that vision is realized. Only after the scene in that vision was realized will she start worrying about his safety because she didn't have any idea what would happen next.

That's a flawed mindset. That's why she only kept that kind of thinking to herself. She's not forcing what she believes on others. Even that vision was something she only shared with them once and she didn't mind it whether they believed it or not. For her, it's enough that she believes in it.

Minutes passed and apart from the five Rank 1 Transcendents stationed at the Portal location, all the working Mortal Ranks died under Irja and my Guardian Pillars' assault.

To make sure that no news will come out to inform those outside this concealed Portal location, instead of focusing on the Rank 1 Transcendents that were already occupied by Irja and the Guardian Pillars, I crushed every item that exuded energy, of course, crystals as the highest priority.

"Why are we being attacked like this?"

"They're from the Dafirae Tribe. Isn't that easy to understand? They're trying to snatch this world from us and make it their own achievement."

That's where you're wrong. If you took note of what that Mortal Ranks said earlier, you would've understood that I'm cultivating this world's Pathway.

Shaking my head at their conversation, I sent a kick to that guy's back letting him tumble directly towards Lan's spear. With an urgent sense of impending death, he twisted his body, sacrificing his left shoulder in the mercy of Lan's sharp spear that tore through it. Instead of dying, he lost an arm and a fountain of blood immediately spurted out of that cut-off part.

Ah. It was impossible for them to think about that or rather they didn't have any time to think about that.

What registered in their mind was my crimson outfit as well as the fact that we emerged from the Portal.

"Argh! Someone. Leave and inform his Excellency!" After a loud grunt of pain, the Transcendent shouted to his comrades.

Well, they're all busy fighting for their life. There's no time for them to do that and even if they did find the chance, there's no way I will let them.

Leaving Lan to finish off that noisy Transcendent. I flew above and out of the hidden cavern. Conjuring the four Phantasmic Doppelganger clones, two dived down to help finish it faster and the other two roamed the surroundings, disabling Trap Formations powered by Dark Energy Stones.

Once I'm done with that, I used all of the gathered Dark Energy Stone from the disabled formations to create multiple layers of Energy Barrier, overlapping with the Concealment Formation.

If someone arrives from outside, they will be able to enter but they will need to destroy those barriers if they want to go back outside. This way, dealing against those unlucky enough to come back at this time will be easy.

Leaving the two clones to stand guard outside of the cavern, I also went down and checked on Irja.

There's truly no need to check on her, I just wanted to be next to her.

Amidst the cry and shouts of the five Transcendents, it only took a matter of minutes to completely purge them out of this world.

It only took that long because Irja still has to completely familiarize herself with the new Source Energy existing in the atmosphere. Although there's that choice to assimilate to it, she hadn't chosen it yet.

"Do you need help in closing that?"

"No. I can do this myself but I don't mind you being next to me. In fact, I want you here beside me." I sat in a lotus position in front of the Portal.

"Really? Even at this point, you're trying to tease me?" Irja rolled her eyes at me but she didn't step away.

"What's wrong with that? When we meet up with Yuko and the others, it will be harder for us to be alone like this."

"Ugh. Alright, I will stay close. Happy?"

"Certainly." I smiled and circled my arm on her waist, pulling her down to sit next to me.

As I leaned over to kiss her, Irja bit her lips in anticipation as she slung her arm to the back of my neck.

While we're indulging in our kiss, I waved my free hand and poured my entire Energy Control to exercise it over the surrounding energy. Not only at this place but also up to the maximum range of my Transcendent Aura.

As the surrounding energy whirled around us, dark clouds started to gather and loom over our heads. Thunder rumbled as the dark clouds continued to grow, trying to contest my Energy Control in exercising authority over the surrounding energy.

After separating my lips from Irja, we both looked up. I know what's happening while Irja also had an inkling as to what that means.

"… To think that your Energy Control is this overwhelming. It made the World's Will of this world to appear in this form to stop you from taking away his authority." She muttered as she watched how I sent a compressed Energy towards the dark clouds trying to establish a communication network to the World of Barbarian's World's Will.

As I am, I don't have the necessary energy to completely close the Portal, only with the World's Will help will I be able to do that. And to make him appear instantly, this sense of threat from me was proven effective.
