The World's most Overpowered Side-Character

"It's been a few minutes, is it the same as before?" Sol quizzed curiously.

[Yes, Master, the vessels all have some kind of guard that prevents me from accessing them, maybe if I could physically interact with one of them through you then I would be able to access more information."

"So you can't even manifest inside of them?" Sol asked surprised and she appeared next to him and shook her head with a sigh. "Then we only need one of them for an experiment." Sol stopped the useless bombardment of mana pillars and summoned the handle of a sword in his grasp. "The rest can die immediately."

"He is finally exhausted after using about the same power as ten Godslayers combined...

set out immediately and prepare to neutralise the-" Captain #55 was giving out an order when the shielded ship next to hers was suddenly sliced into chunks by a massive sword made of white light (mana) and then another more powerful pillar of light than before erased it's presence completely, there wasn't even anything left for Alpha to salvage.

"Is there another hidden enemy?" She looked to the dash. "Why can't we find him?"

"This is Captain #99 speaking, 55, we should order a retreat for the time bei-" another Captain tried communicating to her while his ship was in the process of turning but the link to their communication was severed when the ship was chopped into three pieces and then a star-like entity from inside of it grew to its overall size killing everyone and evaporating the very atoms that made the ship leaving an empty white place in the void it once occupied which slammed shut causing technical interference for the remaining three.

"Prepare the rail-cannons, maximize the shields. Find him!" The captain leapt from her seat to the front dash next to the pilot. "Prepare countermeasures to destroy every star within two systems of this area and get ready to zip away at a moment's notice." She looked at the man over the controls and he nodded and began tapping through a multitude of white buttons with rune-like writings on them.

"Captains-" She raised her head and looked at the two ships before her, but with no time to utter a syllable more she watched horrified as they both were engulfed in floods of cosmic fire from the deep void which washed across them like rivers, incinerating them down to scraps which all mysteriously disappeared from view and when the lights of the flames died, she stared ahead speechlessly as a figure emerged from where they were, white hair slowly swaying where no wind blew.

"Is this... what a Godslayer of old was?" The woman's hand shook involuntarily as she backed up from the dash seeing Sol slowly and ominously approach, his black armour made his body barely tangible, but his cape of red which also weightlessly swayed behind him revealed his figure, while she looked at the sword made of mana in his grasp.

"Is this why the emporium kills them as soon as they are born?" She asked, grabbing her shaking hand and clenched her teeth. "They sent us to our deaths because of a being I heard never intended to leave his domain and asked to be left alone..." She fell to her knees, causing her crew to lose hope as well.

Unlike the first breach where 129 and 79 had a clear power difference, of everyone in this fleet of six ships number 55 was the strongest captain and warrior overall, no other captain or vice-captain compared to her, and yet she found herself unable to stop shaking as she saw Sol pass through their shield breaking it as easily as fragile glass, stop before the screen and loom, staring in at them without saying a word.

"Captain." Her vice-captain stood at her side and glared up at Sol defiantly. "Your orders, ma'am?" He asked as the alarms across the entire ship started going off.

"Detonating the stars is useless," Sol spoke and while he spoke all the stars in their visible range vanished one after the other, shrunken to infinitely smaller sizes where even if they expanded a hundred times their sizes per second it would take years before someone could see them from a foot away.

"Captain-"

"Killing you brings me no joy, but as long as you keep coming, I will continue doing what needs to be done in order to protect my home." Sol turned the back of his folded fist towards the glass screen, and with a single flick of his middle finger, the protective layer of screen was shattered, causing a sudden vacuum to suck everyone out leaving the captain and vice-captain who could resist the pull while everyone else died horrible deaths behind him.

"Is this close enough?" Sol asked not wanting to set foot on the inside.

[I need contact, master you have to touch it.] Alpha answered in his head and then appeared at his side. "I am still being blocked."

"Fine." Sol snapped his fingers causing all the hidden people on-board to appear behind him as well leaving just the captain and her vice-captain there in horror as he slowly descended before them and placed his hand on the dashboard resting and staring at them, they would have asked why he didn't kill them, but as they stared in his inverted eyes they found themselves unable to even blink, those eyes held no mercy, they were full of fury and wretched hatred towards them, he was simply busy at the moment.

"Any good?"

"The Emporium is much more cautious than we imagined," Alpha looked at Sol with her hands on the dash next to him. "It would appear no information of them is left on the ship, only mentions here and there, also, I found the source of this ship's power and the reason these humans are capable of using power beyond limits and expectations." She looked around at them visibly upset.

"Master, on-board this vessel is a container in which a brainless corpse is producing massive amounts of cosmic energy, billions of tonnes per second."

"What... what kind of corpse could fuel a ship this advanced, shouldn't it be a star or something??" Sol's eyes narrowed when he saw the horror etched on the two's faces at her mention of their core.

"It is the corpse of a Godslayer, Master, the reason I could not breach was because I was reprogrammed to not access your power directly, it makes sense at last, the reason they tried capturing instead of killing you is because their ships are powered by your kind."

"Enough of that, what about the Vatui?" Sol asked, and at his request 55's vice-captain snapped like a madman and exploded into a zero-gravity sprint at him, but already expecting this much the man's legs vanished from beneath him in bloody explosions and a force of power descended through the ship and crashed into his back leaving an indent in the back of his head and pressing him into the ground until the rest of his torso popped again sending blood in every direction.

All of this happened without Sol even lifting a finger, the only thing which showed he had acted at all was the glow of his hair flaring up and then dying down to a regular slight white glow again.

"Is there anything on the Vatui?"

"Nothing much." Alpha looked confused. "There are no logs on Vatui, and after searching the entire ship, every corpse and every room and chamber, the only thing that keeps showing up is the word harvest." She looked around at the captain who had slouched forward in defeat with her eyes locked to her trembling hands.

"Harvest?" Sol asked befuddled. "That's all?"

"Yes, Master, kill the Godslayer, harvest the Vatui woman and her offspring, tests, experiments..." These are the only records throughout this entire ship, it is far too little information."

"What do you want with my wife and child?" Sol asked, and the captain's head shot up as he had confirmed one of their biggest speculations but it also caused her to fall into the deepest despair when she saw death staring back at her.

"What does harvest mean?" He ground his teeth in agitation, crushing the piece of the dashboard his hand was resting on as he watched the captain lower her head and hug herself.

"I... am Captain Jenifer Law of the scout fleet 3795, ranked 55, long live the Emporium." She answered shaking as tears floated from the corners of her eyes. "I am Captain Jenifer Law of the scout fleet 37-"

"Answer me!" Sol roared, emitting a powerful golden aura all of a sudden which caused the entire ship to scream and groan as several compartments imploded from the stress of his mana running amok across it. "What do you want with them, what does it mean to harvest!?"

"I-I am C-captain, Jenifer Law of the s-s-scout fleet... *hic!* 3795... R-ranked 55, long ...long live the Emporium!" She began weeping as she hugged herself. "Mother... *hic!* Father... I'm sorry, I won't be coming home ...after all...!"

"She is activating that suit's kill switch!"

[CLOCKWORK: DOMINION]

Sol raised his hand toward the woman and clasped his fist causing her to freeze in place leaving just her head.

"You don't have my permission to die yet." Sol released the dashboard and walked over to her. "There are other ways to get the information I want out of you, Jenifer Law of fleet 3795." Sol bent down before her and slowly began reaching for her head.

"One way or another, I'll know what you know, Captain."
