The Ultimate Support Character

With a resounding thunder that rumbled across the surroundings, the Energy Barrier I put up above as well as the Concealment Formation hiding this place shook as if they would shatter at any moment.

Perhaps I overdid it and angered this World's Will too much. However, this is better than waiting for it to summon me.

Although this gave the chance for the other Dark World Transcendents to notice, as long as I could get the help of this World's Will, closing it would not be a problem.

As I sent my consciousness to try and converse with it, continuous resounding thunders and a bit of lightning filled my head.

Irja at my side looked on at it with vigilance. Perhaps she's thinking that this World's Will was antagonizing us. However, the truth is it's just angry that I roused it like this.

The same as the other World's Will I encountered, it recognized me, especially because of that pledge I made with Avelin from when I got the Orb of Enhancement.

After calming down Irja, I told her to wait for me and hold the fort for a while along with my Guardian Pillars.

Flying into the grumpy and thick dark clouds, I was met with a surprisingly clear white space. For instance, I thought my consciousness was pulled out of my body to reach here but no. This is clearly a physical space within the gathered clouds filled with Brute Energy.

From a distance, a silhouette of a person could be seen. I didn't need to guess, it's the physical form of the World's Will of this world.

As I stepped forward the silhouette finally revealed its true form, a man who looked more like a Barbarian of the Desolate Plains. Long black hair tied behind him, dark brown skin and beast skin clothes. His body build could be said as muscular. Around him, Brute Energy gathered and formed a thunderous aura that rumbled in a low volume. Sparks of lightning could also be seen.

Feeling the pressure he was exuding, he's also around the level of a Rank 2 Transcendent.

Since this is its physical manifestation then one thing came to my mind.

"Are you the Incarnation of the World's Will?"

"I am." His short reply and its coupled with his cold gaze seemed to want to tear me apart.

He's angry, alright.

"I apologize for what I did. It's the fastest I could think of. I need your help."

"I'm aware."

His reply was short once more. But it's fine I guess. Let him be angry all he wanted as long as the purpose of calling him out was realized.

"I see. Then I don't need to explain it to you."

"Leave."

"Huh?"

"I will do it myself."

"Well then, you're the boss of this world, suit yourself." I shrugged and stepped aside, acting as if I'm letting him pass by me.

I guess I angered him enough that he didn't want to work with me. Or is he just too petty?

"Do not ever do that again."

"Look. You're angry, I get that. But don't feel threatened. That's the first and last time I will do it. I have no intention to usurp your control over the world's Source Energy. And more than that, I'm still not strong enough to accomplish that. I'm here to help. If you still feel bad about that then let me ask you, why are you not helping your denizens?"

Putting in the interrogative tone, the World's Will was taken aback as his cold and angry demeanor he put on seemingly dispersed.

Although he's not like the World's Will of the World of Element yet, he seemed to have no intention of helping his denizens tide through this crisis.

I once asked Erin and Avelin about the World's Will but they hadn't encountered it.

I also asked Raiden through my Incarnation when he passed by with his Generals to request assistance from the Whiteshade Division. Among everyone in this world, he should be the one who had the most contact with the World's Will.

However, according to him, he was also being shut down by the World's Will. Perhaps it didn't have any intention to move and left the fate of the whole world to the denizens.

He's just lazy, isn't he?

Now that I exercised the full extent of Energy Control, he came running all at once.

I already apologized and explained to him why I did that but he still had the gall to act this furious.

Let's see what answer he will give me. That better be satisfying.

"… That's none of your business."

Although he appeared to think about my question, the answer he produced was disappointing.

Upon hearing that, a burst of colorful elements from my feet launched me from where I was standing. In a blink of an eye, I already reached his vicinity.

Karmic Slash!

As the ever-changing nature of the Jewel Skill ejected from my sword reached him, the Incarnation of the World's Will clasped his fists and punched towards its direction, sucking in a large amount of Brute Energy to face it.

As the Karmic Slash and the force of his punch met, a resounding explosion of the yellowish Brute Energy broke the white space we were in, revealing the interior of the dark clouds that were still rumbling furiously.

"Why?" With creased brows the Incarnation of the World's Will asked.

"Heh. Do you still have to ask?" I smirked and sheathed my sword back. "Let's say I'm disappointed in you. Go and do your work. This is the birthworld of two of the most important individuals for me. If not for that… I will not be here helping you to prevent this world from being assimilated."

After saying that, I flew down and picked Irja up who was startled from that explosion of Energy that parted the dark clouds revealing us in her eyes.

Only leaving behind those words, I flew out of the cavern and unsummoned the Pillar Guardians.

The Incarnation of the World's Will stayed silent and flew down inside the cavern without replying to what I said. The rumbling dark clouds around him followed him, filling up that space.

I don't really care if he has any motivation or not. And attacking him like that was just for the sake of rousing him into action. If he didn't close that Portal, I will find a way to do so even without his help. And that will surely include using the full extent of my Energy Control again.

If he wants to become my enemy, then I'll let him be my guest. It's not as if the current World's Will is absolute.

As I hovered above the cavern, I focused my senses on what the World's Will was doing.

"You didn't forget that I can fly by myself, did you?" The girl in my arms muttered. Although she's not flailing, her eyes were completely focused on me and not on what's happening below.

"Well, of course, I didn't. Do you want me to put you down?"

"… No."

"Isn't it great to be honest for once? I will hold you like this until we meet up with them then." I smiled and tightened my hold on her, resulting in her arm clinging onto my shoulder.

"That kind of reason… If I know you're this shameless…"

"What will you do? Your curiosity won't stop you anyway. In the end, we'll end up like this."

Although we're bantering with each other, part of our focus was at the World's Will Incarnation summoning more Brute Energy to close the Portal.

"Ugh. I know."

"There's nothing wrong with being shameless, this is how I show my affection to you. Besides, I asked you if you want me to put you down and you said no. If you answered yes, then you know what will be the outcome."

"Alright. I get it already. I can't seem to win against that tongue of yours." Irja broke away her eyes with me and turned her head sideways to show that she's upset.

"There's nothing wrong with that, even back when you confronted me, I confused you with this."

Upon reminding her of that, Irja's cheeks bloated. She seemed incensed enough that she lifted her body to level her head with mine.

With her round eyes turning into a slit, Irja's lips parted, revealing the small fangs at both sides of her teeth. Soon afterward, she went down to my neck and bit on it, lodging her fangs on the skin and leaving a mark on it.

With a triumphant smile, she went back to snuggling back to my arms.

Because she couldn't win using words with me, biting me was the only measure she could think to get back at me.

Although it hurts, this cute display of hers was enough to put my attention away from the World's Will.

"Happy?"

"Yes!"

"Then it's my turn."

"Huh? Wait!"

Ignoring that shout of hers, I left behind clones to watch over the process of closing the Portal as I flew down once more and found a private place for us.

As I put her down on a flat surface, I immediately placed myself on top of her. With her eyes trembling as she didn't have any idea of what I'm going to do, she closed it and bit her lips.

I placed my hand on her cheek and caressed it. When Irja felt that, her face relaxed and her eyes opened once more,

"Daisuke…" Although this is not the first time, hearing her call my name sweetly filled me with more enthusiasm to make this alone time with her to be memorable.

"This is late but… Thank you for coming with me, Irja." As soon as I finished my sentence, my lips dropped on hers.

Irja nodded and accepted it wholeheartedly as her arms circled around my back.
