The Ultimate Support Character

The red-furred beast had long noticed the pressure I was bringing and was scurrying out of its range.

However, the golden sword of the Asura was faster than it.

It tried to activate every Energy inside its body to form a shield. However, following that golden brilliance of the Asura's strike. I was already plunging down from above in the same stance as that Asura.

STAB!

And another stab from the Swordforce-filled Willful Sword broke its shield in half.

As soon as I felt the sword stabbing into something, the red-furred beast let out a deafening yelp that pierced through my ears.

Split in half by my sword, the Physique-type Energy inside the beast came trickling out of its body, transforming into Earth Energy that merged into the atmosphere.

[Ding!]

[You successfully created another Sword Skill: Asura]

As soon as the calm returned to the room, the system notified me about the change.

However, even without it, I clearly felt the breakthrough I had with my Sword. Moreover, the System didn't give any information about it since it's truly simple.

Ignoring the nagging voice of the Artificial Intelligence who was now complaining at how fast I finished his 'trial', I sat down in a lotus position and activated Energy Zone to recover my used Source Energy faster.

I already used a lot of Source Energy from the worlds connected to me through the World Assimilation so I stopped the faucet that was supplying me their Energy for a while to stop those who were nagging at me.

From the other 25 Mortal Worlds we closed that were connected to the Dark World, 12 World's Will agreed to accept the World Assimilation. From me.

Due to that, I actually got an increase in faucets for Source Energy.

Nonetheless, if I use all of them at once, I would drown with it and if I always use one world, their progress would slow down because of my high consumption rate.

That's why I put them in rotation. Either way, they're all getting progress from me. I could even focus the progress to be poured on specific worlds.

And because of that information, I actually tripled what the World of Elements was getting. And then doubled it for the other three Worlds I had gone into. Naturally, the World of System was on another level. It's getting quadruple progress.

However, when this System nagged at me for favoring Ele, I put it down to the same level as hers. I was giving back all the help she lent to me before.

And well, I am also quite fond of her. Too bad. She's a World's Will.

In a way, I was one as well... I guess I was actually sympathizing with her and her destiny of being trapped as a World's Will.

Anyways…

When she noticed I turned off that faucet, she instantly asked me what's wrong or if I faced any difficulties.

That's sweet of her, huh?

Naturally, I answered her inquiry and explained the situation. Upon hearing that, she actually heaved a sigh of relief.

Among all the Mortal Worlds connected to me through the World Assimilation, her world is the one closest to becoming a Transcendent World.

When that happens, new possibilities will happen to that world that is torn by the Invasion.

From the memories I had that actually belonged to that guy above when he still hadn't made me, when Earth became a Transcendent World, it went the path of becoming a Converging World. Due to that, emerging Mortal Worlds became connected to it.

Ele will also have that kind of choice when the World of Elements leveled up to being a Transcendent World.

In any case, that's not my focus for now… It's to consolidate this new stage I reached for my Swordsmanship.

Hovering in front of me was the Willful Sword.

After I exhausted all the Swordforce for executing Asura, it actually hummed slightly and floated away from me.

It's a sword made from a metal that could be found in a Mortal World. It still even has that embedded Knight Skill – Haste – in it that already grew with it.

Nonetheless, the reason why it wasn't breaking was because of the half-awakened soul of the Sword and the protection of my Energy Control.

Unlike Avelin's axe, Inca, wherein it got its original form cracked and battered that it needed to settle on another axe to survive, this Willful Sword was now about to fully awaken its consciousness or soul; in a more general term that was acceptable to the Known Universe, Weaponsoul.

As for what kind of Soul it is… well, it's unlike the Artificial Intelligence or the World's Will. The Soul of the Sword or any other weapon was totally connected to its owner. When the user died, the Soul inside the sword would seal itself and become an ordinary sword.

Usually, it's impossible to unseal these Souls because of their attachment to their owners. However, there were a few rare instances wherein the new owner would be able to rouse the curiosity of the Weaponsoul.

Either way, the Willful Sword awakening this time was something unprecedented. Back then, my previous sword was named Slasher, I know my naming sense was still as bad as before but that's not the point here. Slasher's Weaponsoul was awakened when I reached the Saint-class.

And now, Willful Sword was awakening just after I stepped into my Sword Path.

At the moment, it's now glowing in another blinding light as it was being bathed by the surrounding Source Energy.

That's right. It's now drawing in Source Energy to reforge itself. On its own.

What I have to do this time is to watch over it and converse with it because there's a chance for it to fail.

If it failed… Willful Sword would never fully awaken again. There's no second try for Weaponsouls. Once one failed to awaken, that weapon would at best be shelved and replaced by another weapon to awaken a Weapon Soul. Some heartless Experts were throwing away their failed half-awakened Weaponsouls.

Back then, I awakened Slasher with difficulty. It's a proud sword who refused to accept the name I've given it… But in the end, it succumbed to my bad naming sense. Because like me, it also wanted to be born into the world as my Weaponsoul.

Yuko and the other girls who were watching that back then all sided with the Sword and asked me to reconsider naming it like that… However, I was just that adamant. Thankfully, it accepted it in the end.

I wonder, what about this Willful Sword? Will it accept it as is or… will it also sulk that I gave it a terrible name?

[You… You're awakening a Weaponsoul… How many surprises will you give me?!]

"Quiet and watch. Or prepare that Legacy Acceptance. Once we're done here, we'll finish it." I snapped at the Artificial Intelligence.

Well, when I asked it about the previous owner of this place, it didn't answer. Then I was only returning the favor.

In any case, I have to be ready for this.

Sword Path, Weaponsoul and finally completing my Mortal Pathway… This Exploration was proven more beneficial to me in the end.
