The Ultimate Support Character

Chapter 384 World Zones

Outer Space. With the current human civilization existing on Earth, not a lot has been unearthed about it. All we know is that the Earth is in a small Star System in the Milky Way Galaxy. But all of those facts and information came from Scientists and Astrologers of the current civilization.

The number of people who managed to leave the atmosphere of the Earth probably hadn't reached thousands yet and the ones who managed to land and walk on the moon could be counted on fingers.

In short. The current technology on Earth is too primitive.

With the revelation that the Earth is a possible World higher than a Transcendent World, the humans walking on Earth today are the new civilization that sprang up perhaps around 3000 years ago or more.

It's just a guess for now but what happened to the Dark World was most likely connected to what happened on Earth.

The previous civilization disappeared completely, leaving nothing to the new civilization that sprang up.

For sure, that previous civilization was completely buried in time. Even if there's still a Ruins or traces of that civilization, it remains undiscovered as of today.

The information about Pathways, technologies concerning Interstellar Travel and many more were all buried along that previous civilization.

Perhaps the legends about Atlantis and the likes were true. Just that the locations of those ruins are somewhere a normal human without any hint of Source Energy can't go into.

Who knows? Well, the World's Will will surely know about it. My father, that sly old man and if ever there are still hidden individuals that are similar to the two, there's a small chance that they're from that previous civilization and know a lot about it.

All that information will have to wait until we awakened the World's Will and I get my memory back.

I just had drifted to that thought upon hearing everything about Outer Space from Irja.

In the end, since they're all waiting for my decision, I chose not to chase after that Great One's descendant.

With her advice that we'll most likely be lost in outer space, I rescinded the thought of going after him to pull the trouble from its roots.

Irja emphasized that even if he has a vessel to travel in Outer Space. World Zones couldn't be traversed in mere days.

As for the explanation about what are World Zones, Irja simply described it as a label for the regions in outer space. Much like how one will divide each city, town or country.

According to her, it's just knowledge she picked up in one of the lectures when she's still young. Given that they're fighting against other Transcendent Worlds and conquering numerous Mortal Worlds, it's knowledge they had to know.

For now, let's call it with the common terms for the Earth's current civilization. Every world exists in one huge Universe, no matter what level it is.

However, the Universe is composed of numerous Galaxies.

The Galaxies was then composed of numerous Star Clusters and inside each Star Cluster are numerous Star Systems.

And here, because Irja also has limited knowledge about it, the World Zone that they're probably talking about only pertains to a certain Star Cluster.

Apparently, Mortal Worlds were fixed on their World Zones or Star Cluster. However, once a world became a Transcendent World, the World's Will would be able to control the world along with its fixed star to wade through outer space, leaving their World Zone to enter a new World Zone.

According to her, the reason why the Dark World can easily be attacked by Transcendent Worlds every time the Energy Barrier surrounding them needed to be replenished is because the World Zone they were in consists mostly of Transcendent Worlds.

Additionally, the Mortal Worlds they were trying to conquer were from a different World Zone.

Well, it's somewhat vague but if I have to guess, the Universe was also divided by levels.

The Mortal World such as this World of Barbarian is located in a Level 1 World Zone and the Dark World is located at a Level 2 World Zone.

Whether there were more specifics about different World Zones, it's not something the Dark World had knowledge of yet. Even the Great Ones who left for a higher world had no idea about it or perhaps, they're keeping the information to themselves.

Well, it's a long-winded explanation but in hindsight, what that descendant was trying to do was to travel in space to go from one Star Cluster to another. As for how many World Zones he needed to pass, who knows?

Since there's already the hint that these Mortal Worlds are located in a faraway World Zone, he's really in for a long journey.

But considering that a Great One could punch a Portal from the Dark World to here, it's possible that they're closer than we think or I could possibly be overestimating the distance between each World Zones.

It's something I wouldn't find an answer to no matter how deep I think so let's drop it at that for now.

As for where the Earth or the Solar System is located currently. Hopefully, that's an information included in my ripped memories.

At the moment, there's no point thinking about it yet. That's why after being cleared as to what that descendant was trying to do, I had us move back to the camp and see the damage that guy caused.

"Dai-kun. I also remembered something about World Zones but it's unclear. All I could remember was that we were living in a pretty high World Zone. Traveling from planet to planet was easily achieved because of the opened Portals."

While we were on the way back, Yuko who was only intently listening earlier added.

"I am also having dreams about a world I've never been to before."

"Me too!"

Zerina and Avelin also chimed in. After that, they started describing their vivid dreams.

As it turns out, the memories of their previous lives were already starting to come back, proving Sofiel's words about my possible previous life's Companions.

That girl was the first one or perhaps the second or third one to remember about her previous life's memories. As to what triggered it, she mentioned that it started when she became a Transcendent.

Are their memories locked or altered like Yuko or it's a natural lock?

Thinking back, Yuko remembered her memories when we're still young. And that led the Principal to alter her memories, locking them behind certain UPL milestones.

Well, this kind of information was a welcome one so I told them to tell me everything whenever they will dream of one again which the two girls happily agreed. Perhaps Nysia and Jayna were also starting to remember about their previous life's memories. I'll ask them when we have the chance. Sofiel too, if she remembered new bits of her memories.

As soon as we landed back at the camp, half of it was cleanly destroyed.

Even from afar, we could already see the devastating damage that the explosion caused. There's now a huge circular crater where everything turned to ash.

The whole Corrupted Camp was completely destroyed but the radius of that crater even reached the Heavenly Lightning Tribe's camp as well as more than half of the Mortal Rank battlefield.

Upon seeing that, Erin immediately sped up to the surviving Mortal Ranks to look for the Old Man while Yuko and Zerina looked down to search for the Party Members.

Well, I'm sure they're all still alive since none of them was deleted from my allies list.

Nonetheless, anyone would surely worry upon seeing the damage that the explosion did.

Because of Yuko's early warning, we managed to get out of its range. However, more than half of the members of the Whiteshade Division and the Heavenly Lightning Tribe were engulfed in it.

"Daisuke…"

From the opposite direction we came from, Raiden appeared and called out to me. Although his attire has been torn to pieces and there's a huge chunk of his shoulder missing, he's still fine.

So this is the reason why we didn't see him, he got blasted in the opposite direction. Moreover, he didn't come out unscathed.

"I thought you already got turned to dust" I tossed him one medicinal pill first which he immediately consumed before answering.

One less Hero will also be bad for me. I guess it's great that he lived, huh?

However, at that kind of crisis, I'm glad that my Priority List was followed by my mind. In fact, I'm not feeling a great loss to the Barbarians who got involved in that explosion.

"Ha! That's a good joke. But honestly, I was truly about to die if my Ability hadn't finished its cooldown…"

For the first time, I saw a new expression from the guy. He got the scare of his life, huh?

"Anyway, what do you feel now?"

"… I was enlightened. I will not use that Skill again unless I really need to. It's something that can save me in that kind of situation. I'm lucky today but one cannot be lucky every day. You said you're going to different worlds, right? Don't leave me out."

"You have to clean this place first… We'll be leaving soon and I'll be taking the girls with me. This is your world and you're the Hero. Finish your job. Also if that guy comes back, summon me immediately if you feel like you can't beat him."

"Geez. I don't need you nagging on me as well. The Old Man already does that a lot. Besides, I also can't die when I have wives to marry. I have to fulfill those promises I made. I already gave the signal to the three Chieftains to wait for the army in three days and we will start the purge of the corrupted and everyone connected to the Dark World."

This guy… He suddenly got a harem, huh? And this is probably the longest interaction between us. Looks like his life-threatening situation changed something at his core. That's great.
