Three days later, the silhouette of Earth or even the sun of the Solar System was already nowhere in sight from the windows of the Space Vessel.
With most of them experiencing traveling through space for the first time, the first three days of our journey became a sightseeing tour without any mishaps happening.
We passed through planets, different star systems and saw some Space Beasts peacefully resting somewhere.
And although Jayna had already experienced traveling through space during our previous lives, her curiosity over new things would never be sated. She even pulled Avelin, Dannae and Noelle with her as they went from window to window to talk about any heavenly bodies they would see.
Naturally, even if we started from a desolate part of the Universe, we encountered at least four Space Vessels that were most likely from those Invasive Worlds going to Earth. Those four Space Vessels had the gall to try and attack us.
While the Kingfisher had its defensive modules that could repel any attack by spending some of its Source Energy fuel, I chose not to use it. Instead, it became a trial run for when we had no choice but to fight while traveling like this.
With all the Space Vessels we looted and collected, each of us possessed our own small Space Vessel that was combat-oriented.
Although Ezyn's proud figure of a Spirit King already dwindled down to just being content that he was with his wife on this journey, he's the one who stepped out first to engage the first Space Vessel that approached us.
Because of the Support Bonus and the use of Spirit Bestowal to him, Ezyn shot up to the ranks of Rank 2 Transcendent despite still being quite far from completing his 1st Realm of Transcendent Pathway which he called Spirit Refining as a whole. He's merging Physique-type properties.
Well, although that's not really apparent in that battle due to how he used a small Space Vessel to shoot down the opposing Space Vessel and its passengers along with some of my Companions, the former Spirit King showed his true form in the end to catch one Transcendent trying to swim through space.
On the succeeding incident with three other unsuspecting Space Vessels, my Companions as well as Yse, who was only watching at first, routed them all.
Although I didn't need to move at all, I stayed vigilant just in case something went awry.
Fortunately, nothing of the sort happened.
And now three days later, we're about to arrive at our first destination.
A small Chaosworld that was detected by the World Zone Navigator.
Luckily, we didn't need to travel for long to find one. I initially told them about that World Ruin that was being used as a training ground for the previous Earth. However, considering the distance it had now from Earth, it's still a distance away from where we were at the moment.
That's why, instead of waiting for that, the small Chaosworld would suffice to replace it. We would eventually reach that place as well but for now, this would suffice.
In there, I aimed to train them and to make them aware that it's not only creatures or races with Source Energy that exist in the wide universe. Moreover, it was also to show them that there were other ways to progress with our Pathway.
Although they were aware that what I absorbed to complete my Mortal Pathway was condensed Chaotic Energy, this would be the first time for most of them to encounter it.
"That's an oddly-shaped world. And it reeks of a deeper Darkness than what the Noxians possessed." Fleur commented.
"Noxians are just a race with a high Darkness affinity. They're not even pure like a Darkness Elemental of your race. Wait and see until we reach those higher Elemental-type Worlds and you will see that Noxians aren't as unique as they claimed. As for this world... they're a different category entirely. Chaosworld, Space Oddities and Space Beasts are just a few examples of what truly dominated this wide Universe. Most worlds are protected by World's Will and most of the time, they would be using Portals to go from world to world. But these beings, they're born from the corrupting Chaotic Energy and anything that came in contact with it." I explained.
Even I as a former Divinity hadn't truly explored the true depths of the Chaotic Beings like them. First of all, there was no point and lastly, we hadn't encountered them that much.
Most of them stayed in the region they were born in, unless you approached that region, there's no chance to encounter them...
Unless some would be bold enough to capture one of them.
Following Fleur, the other girls and even the dragon couple asked a few questions. I calmly answered them with some assistance from my Companions who could now remember their previous lives.
"Let me go first to survey the place... All of you should stay here and keep vigilant. Shoot down anything that will approach the Space Vessel."
Once the Kingfisher approached the Chaosworld that just looked like a jumbled mess of space debris, I had it stop just before the Chaosworld's Chaotic Will detected it.
That's right. Despite being a world birthed from chaos, it also possessed a World's Will counterpart.
The only difference it had from a World's Will was that... Chaotic Will would be initially born with an ego and it's always leaning to the destruction of anything with Source Energy.
As for the reason why, those who tried to study it easily came up with the same conclusion. It's because that's the nature of Chaotic Energy.
After telling them not to worry and stopping them from their desire to come with me, I left the Kingfisher while riding a smaller Space Vessel that prioritized the speed.
In less than five minutes, my Energy Senses instantly noticed the Chaotic Will locking into my Space Vessel.
While broadcasting the arrival of someone it ought to destroy, restrictive Chaotic Energy began to surround my Space Vessel.
However, all of those were deflected by the brimming Source Energy I possessed.
With a lot of worlds backing me through World Assimilation, the Chaotic Will couldn't do anything to me except pinpoint my location to the Space Oddities living in it.
The place was dark, barren and devoid of traces of a society.
Although the Space Oddities could be called a living being, their minds were only geared at one thing, the expunging of any types of Source Energy that would be detected by them.
As much as we could use Chaotic Energy that would be left behind by them to progress in our Pathways, the Space Oddities and Chaosworld denizens could also strengthen themselves from the Source Energy they would be corrupting to Chaotic Energy.
After I entered the Chaosworld's dark atmosphere and approached their skylines wherein they would be able to clearly see a meteor-like descent of my Space Vessel, I vigilantly opened one domain.
Energy Storm!
From every direction, the Space Vessel instantly attracted the Space Oddities that were not any weaker than a Rank 1 Transcendent.
Before I knew it, even if the hull of the Space Vessel was still scorching hot and covered with a defensive Source Energy Shield, the Space Oddities who appeared as if giant bipedal insects swarmed it.
Most of them instantly burst into flames leaving behind the Chaotic Energy from their bodies that were instantly absorbed by the containers I prepared inside the Space Vessel.
Following that, those who didn't manage to latch onto the Space Vessels were restrained by the Energy Storm I created that produced Energy Clones which instantly engaged them in battle.
Most of those Energy Clones would die instantly but it was enough to stop those Space Oddities that could give serious damage to my Space Vessel.
And as soon as the Space Vessel landed on the barren land of this Chaosworld, I instantly disembarked from it to begin my purpose in coming in here alone.
To assess if there's more to it than just the Space Oddities as well as, to gauge the total threat of this place against my Companions.
I might look like I was babying them but... what can I do? It's already in my personality.
In any case, it's not like those women would let themselves be babied and carried by me. In their own way... they're all thinking about how to help me.
And that's why I would be making a stage for them to show off in the form of this small Chaosworld...
"Chaotic Will... You have to do better than this." As I flew above while being swarmed by the rabid Space Oddities who also found themselves stuck inside my Energy Storm, I addressed the Chaotic Will who sent down an Incarnation in the form of an extremely dark silhouette with black lightning covering its body.
"Bold Source Energy Being. No matter how abundant your Source Energy... it is undeniably a food for this world!"
