The Ultimate Support Character

Chapter 580 Uniqueness

We may have led an adventurous life a few thousand years ago but the mysteries of the universe remained boundless and uncountable. There's always something new to discover.

That's why even the ones who claimed themselves wise and full of wisdom wouldn't confidently say that they know everything. The Universe we live in is just too vast.

For example, just the fact that Divine Rank and what lies beyond it was being gatekept by the Divine Worlds to the majority of Source Energy Beings is already a clue.

Furthermore, even if there's a possibility that I'm not the first one crazy enough to attempt reincarnation through soul freezing and rebirth, how many are privy to it?

And lastly, is there another being like me? Someone who's originally a World's Will incarnation given emotions and later on acquired a physical body?

The answers to those questions are elusive. Maybe, we won't ever know. Much like how I won't ever announce that I'm a former Divinity to anyone except to those who have already known about it.

This time, here lies another mystery.

What's happening to this freaking veiled woman? She didn't just go batshit crazy for the loss of her loved one. She's even prepared to lose her life just to take me down.

Though I sympathize with that thought given that I also chose the same thing when threatened with the life of my Companions, this woman seemed to have failed to do that as well.

She failed to protect the barbarian. She failed to take down the one that killed him. And she failed to end her life in exchange for mine.

As there was no time to interrogate the surrendered Rank 3 Transcendents about her origin, there was no other choice but to check this out myself.

To understand the underlying mystery behind this phenomenon.

"Dai-kun." Yuko looked at me with inquiring eyes. Despite having the ability to take a glimpse of our future, this is also unprecedented to her. "This is rare for a Transcendent Rank. I can't recall something as mysterious as this happening before we became Sage Rank back then."

"Yeah. That's why I need your experience and Yse's Eye of Destiny. You can interpret things that she cannot understand."

"I understand. Leave it to me."

"Can I really do it?"

Yuko nodded but Yse was in doubt. She's not at fault though. Her Eye of Destiny is probably still in its early stages where it can only sense a person's Destiny Link to another person.

Yep. Just like how she noticed my eventual connection to all of my Companions.

But the Eye of Destiny is more than that.

Yuko made use of that ability to even find out where we can find clues that will lead us to the construction of my physical body.

Let's just say like Pathway Realms or Abilities that evolve, the Eye of Destiny is the same. I doubt even Yuko realized all of its potential back then.

Alas, because of how I hastily decided to destroy everything for a chance to get away from Celestial Garden, she also lost possession of the Eye of Destiny.

It's in our fortune that it got passed to someone who coincidentally crossed paths with me.

As I don't know how it came to be, I can just leave the interpretation of its appearance on Yse as a lucky encounter. Of course, I can also put out a wild guess that it chose Yse because of the eventual crossing of our Destiny. Everything was predetermined by it.

Mhm. That's kind of too far-fetched, right?

But like I said, our universe is boundless and filled with mystery. Let's just leave it at that for now.

"You can. That Eye is something even I, as a former Divinity, have found almighty. And you have Yuko to attest to it." I assured Yse to ease her doubt.

"Indeed, Yse. When I possessed that Eye in our past life, it helped us more than his lauded Energy Control." Yuko supplemented.

Yep.

What's happening to the veiled woman is out of the jurisdiction of what my Adaptability and Energy Control could understand.

Even after plunging into this Glacial Source Energy Storm created by the veiled woman, the System that usually translates the data being interpreted by the Adaptability was silent apart from giving me a warning.

My Energy Senses was also giving a clear Red warning which means, one misstep and we might find ourselves in a fatal situation.

Our only shot here is if the Eye of Destiny can find out what we're dealing with.

After deliberating for a while, Yse curtly nodded as she prepared herself to use the potential of her special eyes.

Moving one step at a time, I continued conjuring Bulwark of Invincibility to the three of us, replenishing the broken shields from the furious blizzard. My Energy Manipulation was in full display, creating a small zone for us to be protected by it but even then, it was still getting breached.

I could feel my Source Energy becoming drained like a water tank with a huge hole on the side. And with the quality of Level 1 Source Energy, even if my sources are near-unlimited, they won't be able to keep up for too long with this strong distortion caused by the violent Source Energy coming from the veiled woman.

Ten minutes later, we approached the ten-meter mark before the center of this storm.

We could already see her standing there, frozen with no control whatsoever. Her consciousness must've been overridden by her special eyes.

And looking at her from this distance, the veil covering her enchanting pale-white face has already disappeared.

Her hair was white as snow fluttered behind her. Her unique pair of eyes which was the crux of this situation shone in dazzlingly cold, white light.

Her pupils have turned into an ice-blue hue and it emits a mysterious glow that is enough for my spine to tingle.

The danger I'm sensing is at its maximum. The color she's exuding has changed from Red to Pure Black.

"I think this is the maximum distance we can approach her."

I said, stopping both Yuko and Yse from venturing forward.

"Dai-kun, she might be able to cause an explosion as strong as Sage Rank's power if she truly self-destructed." Yuko relayed her observation.

"A Sage Rank? That is…" Yse was flabbergasted. Even if she already heard the term from us, it's still a foreign concept to her who has just reached Transcendence.

"Yes. And it's all because of her eyes. Luckily, it stopped her from executing that move."

I narrowed my eyes and focused my Energy Senses to further observe the woman's situation but no matter how much I tried to probe into it, I was getting nothing.

Time quickly passed and after countless attempts to see past it, I gave up. I already deemed it impossible for me, I'm just wasting time.

I glanced to my side. And there, I saw Yse silently floating. Her earlier demeanor has changed. And as though resonating with the veiled woman, her Eye of Destiny has also started shining. Thankfully, she seemed to still have a grip on her consciousness.

A moment later, her voice reached our ears."Yuko. Daisuke. I can see it. I can see the nature of her eyes."

"What is it?" I promptly inquired.

Yuko then flew to Yse's side to support her and be ready to interpret in case Yse herself could not understand what was being shown to her.

"It's… something that involves an existence beyond the realms that we know of."

This… This is bigger than I thought.
