The Ultimate Support Character

"What amazing Energy Control for a Rank 2 Transcendent… And I only noticed it now… World Sage, you still haven't completed your Mortal Pathway! How did you…? This is something I never thought was possible!" The white-haired old man who was now watching from the sidelines as I absorbed the Chaotic Energy exclaimed.

Ignoring his commentary, I focused on refining this Chaotic Energy.

That's right. Although it could be directly absorbed, one still needed to refine it inside one's body lest one wanted to accumulate Chaotic Properties that would hinder their future Pathways. Moreover, those who had accumulated a lot of Chaotic properties inside their bodies would find themselves restricted inside a world with Source Energy.

Refining the Chaotic properties of the Chaotic Energy was almost the same as those cultivators in novels that were expelling the impurity in their bodies.

I had to flush them out of my system and this was why I told Yuko and the others that I might take days in here. Even though it was easy for me to absorb this Chaotic Energy without experiencing the backlash that anyone would normally get, I had no way to circumvent the slow process of expelling the chaotic waste and refining the Chaotic Energy.

As hours passed, the stagnant 80% progress that was visible in my system began rising.

To give me the sense of progress and slight satisfaction, the incarnation inhabiting my system added four decimal points.

That's a weird way to show consideration…

80.0001

80.0005

80.0018

And while I was continuously absorbing, refining and expelling, time passed as I slowly but surely completed my Mortal Pathways.

Two days later, most of the Heroes and Transcendents had already finished their trials inside both the Armor and Weapon Peripherals Storage Buildings.

To test what they received from it, they began going with their original groups to take on the Automatons that were not less than earlier.

With Daisuke talking with the Artificial Intelligence currently governing the place, the Automatons that should all be deployed to intercept them and patrol every place were mostly disabled.

Due to that, the Heroes and Transcendents finally had the chance to go toe to toe against them without being ganged up.

Apart from them, Daisuke's Companions who also finished their trials and received various benefits befitting of the floors they received gathered on one spot.

They all received Daisuke's message. Moreover, apart from asking them to continue improving while using the Automatons as practice targets and not worry about him, he also asked them to complete the initial purpose of why they began their exploration here.

To get the World Zone Navigator.

Yuko and the others who already remembered part of their previous life's memories informed the other girls what Daisuke failed to elaborate so it didn't take long for them to think of a way to help him.

And due to how there's a lot of them, they thought that they might discover more if they separated, all with different tasks.

One group went to get the World Zone Navigator.

One group went to the unexplored parts to see if there were other valuable items there.

And another group went to look for the Artificial Intelligence that Daisuke mentioned to see if they could do something for it, like bringing it out of this place.

Nonetheless, even if they separated, the three groups of women remained in contact with each other to relay their own discoveries to each other.

The following two days were the first time in a while for Daisuke to be away with them and without him contacting them so this became the time for them to be prepared if the same situation happened in the future.

They all thought that they shouldn't rely too much on him and that they had to be strong enough to not be a burden. Moreover, it's also their wish to continue advancing in the same direction as him.

Even though he's always taking the Support Role, from what he showed them, his methods put him at the top despite not possessing the highest UPL among them.

Yumiko needed the full support of the higher Spirit to defeat the Rank 3 Transcendent back then and it was a close fight. But Daisuke defeated him in less than a minute.

And unbeknownst to him, his Companions are aware of his guilt of dragging them with him for his petty revenge against the Divine World. However, they never truly blamed him for that.

True, knowing the truth that everything happened because of what he did thousands of years ago came as a shock to some of them. But thinking back, when they met him, he's just like them. Unaware of what's truly happening.

At the present, their destinies were already tied to each other. There's no reason to point fingers at him when they're all riding the same boat that they all willingly rode. Furthermore, most of their reasons were to be with him.

Two days later, Yuko, Erin, Jayna, Leianne, Fleur and Irja were wading towards a group of Automatons as they made their way out of the Deep Space Department.

The Artificial Intelligence was aware of Daisuke's goal; the Navigator and the training of his Companions. Due to that, it made sure that it would become a challenge for his Companions to reach the Deep Space Department and go out of it after getting what they wanted.

Nonetheless, with their new equipment in hand, their almost Rank 3 Transcendent prowess was even magnified with their cooperation.

"They're here again. Yuko, I'll begin!" Erin shouted as she began running forward. With her speed, a normal eye could only see a shadowy streak speeding past.

In just a second, the 100-meter distance between them and the Silver and Gold Automatons was traversed.

As soon as she stabilized her footing, her Shadow Empire, her Domain Skill from her Physique-type Pathway, extended from her feet, encompassing a large area. Within the territory of her Domain, her Shadow Clones from her Jewel Skill would appear at random, confusing the Automatons.

The barbarian ninja girl got an equipment from the trial that replaced her scarf with another one that had the effect of stabilizing her Energy Control, preventing leaks whenever she used an ability. Its effect could now be seen clearly in her Shadow Clones and her Shadow Empire.

With stabilized Energy Control and fewer leaks, the duration and durability of that Jewel Skill of hers were enhanced and the influence her Shadow Empire could reach got extended.

"Un… It's my turn."

The next one to move among the six was Leianne. She unsheathed a snow-white saber that she received from the trial at the Weapon Peripheral Storage Building. It has an inherent ice ability which could be further improved by her own Energy Control.

Leianne then dragged her saber across the ground as she ran in a circle on the periphery of Erin's Empire.

As soon as she completed one revolution, a tall Ice Wall enclosure rose, trapping the Automatons inside.

Apart from her snow-white saber, she also got ahold of small shield-like equipment that could be mounted on her arm. Apart from being defensive equipment, it possessed the same properties as her saber.

From on top of the Ice Wall, Leianne jumped in the middle where Erin was located.

"Sister Leianne, you're always too cold."

With their backs against each other, Erin opened a conversation.

"Is that you trying to reference my ability?" With one of her eyebrows raised, Leianne inquired.

"Nope. That's just how you seem to be for most of us. Only that Monster can experience your warmth." Erin smirked as she pulled out a set of black knives before her Flux Energy whirled out of her body to coat it with her Shadow Control ability.
