The Ultimate Support Character

Chapter 425 World's Will's Blessing

With the defeat of the last dregs of the Dark World denizens the World of Elements finally became rid of the threat of invasion.

If in the future an Invasive World once again punches a hole in this world's space to create a Portal, the denizens were already equipped to push them away.

But if they invaded by traveling using a Space Vessel, that would be something inevitable.

The World's Will would surely bar their way from entering. However, Ele or any other World's Will's strength isn't absolute.

They also grow alongside their denizens and they're beings without any Physical Bodies. Despite having the ability to create an Incarnation through the world's Source Energy, it was at the expense of their own 'Essence'.

Well, I'll call it Essence, for now, to refer to the existence of these World's Wills.

At the moment, my consciousness was once again summoned by Ele.

Compared to before, this space where she could manifest herself indefinitely felt a lot more colorful than before. Not far from the beach was a small brick house, reminiscent of the structures at a human city. There were also towering trees providing shade as well as aquatic and avian life.

Unlike the first time I got summoned in this space, all known Elements could now be perceived in the surroundings. Natural, Special and Incomprehensible Elements.

They were all represented by something that could normally be associated with them.

As I walked along the beach because Ele was nowhere to be seen despite summoning me here, my feet led me to the small brick house.

I pushed open the wooden door which produced a creaking sound as if it was real.

I stepped in and found the culprit who summoned me in this space but didn't even bother welcoming me or rather, she waited for me to search for her.

Ele, with the same appearance as before, was sitting on a wooden chair with her eyes closed and her eyebrows knitted. Perhaps thinking about something she learned about recently.

Earlier, after I tortured some information out of that descendant, I passed him to the World's Will. She could also scan and read his memories once she drained him out of his Source Energy, converting it to enrich the Elemental Energy.

Perhaps the reason she summoned me here was to relay whatever she learned that I failed to extract from that poor guy.

"You seem more and more human-like these days, what's on your mind that you have to make that kind of expression?"

Naturally, she's already aware of my presence. She's the one who summoned me here after all. But for her to keep that up, contrary to her expressionless face that I already got used to seeing, she's either intentionally letting me see it or it was a piece of really serious information that she didn't know where to begin.

When she heard my voice, Ele's eyebrows relaxed and her eyelids fluttered open.

Upon putting me under her gaze, she sighed.

She stood up and walked over to my side before waving her hand.

Before I could make out what she did, an image appeared in my mind.

Inside that image were tens of Space Vessels lifting up to the sky and out into whatever's beyond it. The passengers all exuded the aura of a Rank 2 Transcendent and beyond.

The one who's exuding the highest aura or rather the terrifying aura of a demon was standing far ahead with his arms crossed. However, his face was blurred as if a thick fog was covering it.

The image seemed to be coming from someone's eyes and it's easy to guess that this was extracted from that descendant's memory.

"Listen Olga. When you reach the same height as them, you will also experience the mysteriousness of the Boundless Black Sea and travel through different World Zones."

Suddenly, a voice rang out from the side and the image moved, showing an older man that resembled that descendant. His father.

"Where are they going?"

And even if I didn't talk, the memory continued to play, making me an eavesdropper.

"To the world of our Creator."

"Creator… Didn't he abandon our world?"

Their Great Ones' trip to a higher world made them aware of the state of their world.

However, why did he sound so certain about their destination being the world of their Creator?

Was it recognized by them 7 years ago or was there some other reason?

"He didn't abandon us. He disappeared along with His world, leaving us floating somewhere to fend for ourselves."

"Isn't that the same as abandoning us?"

"Perhaps. That's why we're going to search for him."

"Why do we need to?"

Before the old voice answered, the memory stopped there and my vision cleared up. Ele's eyes were still trained on me as she's waiting for my reaction.

"Is that what's going on in your mind? What's wrong with it?"

"The memory stopped there. It's just a remnant of his memories, what happened next were all erased."

"I see. It got you so curious."

"Why are you not reacting? Their destination should be your world, am I right?"

"You've been reading my mind… Perhaps it is, perhaps it's not. By the way, are you worried about me?"

He specifically said to the Creator's world after all. Who knows? They might find another Creator and be crushed by whoever it was.

That's the best-case scenario.

"Worried? I don't know. It's an emotion I can't quite grasp yet. I summoned you here because… you're about to leave this world."

"I see. You're right. I will also bring my Avatar with me. I won't be able to accompany you anymore."

"I learned a lot from you and you granted me a name. That's enough. Unless I get ousted or this world gets destroyed, I will remain here. Eternally."

"True. If one day I come back to this world. Let's catch up, Ele."

"There's no need. I can communicate with you as long as you're not too far away. You're treading the Pathway of this world and that means you're connected to this world. You're connected to me." Ele shook her head and even if it was only faint, I could sense sorrow in her voice. "Well then, I've taken up your time. Remember what I told you, your Energy Control. That's your strongest weapon."

Before I could even reply to her, she waved her hand once more and a wave of Aether Elemental Energy pushed me back, dropping me into a place filled with Void Elemental Energy before my vision blurred and eventually turned dark.

Along with it, I felt my Adaptability as well as my Mortal Pathway's progress rise dramatically, followed by a system notification.

[You have been granted the World's Will's Blessing]

When my eyes opened, I found myself in the same room where I was before Ele summoned me.

And beside me, the women that should be resting had their eyes opened as they looked at me with a disbelieving expression.

"Darling, what happened? A wave of Elemental Energy suddenly dropped and was absorbed by you." Sofiel muttered as she started pressing her hand on my naked chest.

"You got summoned by the World's Will," Yumiko said.

Their hair was currently disheveled as if strong winds came in through the windows.

Well, they probably got caught up with that. Ele blessed me with both Aether and Void Elemental Energy and because of that, my Adaptability that was stuck at 80% rose by 10%. That blessing she gave me was too… great. The blessing also raised my current Mortal Pathway to 50%, shortening my path to the 5th Realm.

Well, at this point, the girls had already passed by my current progress. Yuko, in particular, needed three days' worth of Energy gathered from Absorption Sessions to finally break through the fifth realm while Leianne and the other two who's already at their 5th realm were inching closer to completing their Mortal Pathway.

Nonetheless, they're still slightly weaker compared to those who reached Transcendence earlier than them like Zerina, Jayna, Yumiko, Avelin and Erin.

"I did meet her. She provided me with the info I failed to extract from the descendant as well as blessed me with the Source Energy of this world."

That's the best explanation I could give them. I'm aware that the World's Will is slowly growing attached to me. With this blessing she gave, this must be her show of gratitude or perhaps a show of her fondness over me. Only Ele knows the answer to that.

Either way, now that I'm awake and I spent the time I promised with these two women. It's time to leave.

After dressing up, I brought the two to the place where six Doors of Transcendence could be seen hovering in the sky.

As soon as the battle against the Dark World and the rebel Noxians, their three days countdown for their Transcendent Trials ended.

While I spent the time with Yumiko and Sofiel, the others watched over the Doors as well as moved to help the Ele's Incarnation to close down the remaining Dark World Zones.

Since that time, a day has already passed.

"Dai-kun! I have news. Father, he contacted me."

As soon as we landed, Yuko ran over with a bright expression. It looks like she got good news about that thing we all talked about.

When we gathered in that castle where we settled in, we talked about the plan of going to another Otherworld before going back to Earth.

There are still 24 Portals that need to be closed and because of our limited option, we can only travel to one world through my Support Recall.

At that point, Yuko presented her plan to ask her father, the sly old Principal if we can get a Portal Skill to the other worlds.

Following that, Sofiel and Yumiko also added that we should split our forces into three or four groups…

I instantly thought of voicing my objection since we had just reunited but when I gazed into their eyes brimming with confidence and dedication, I held it back.

Most of them were not like me after all. I only thought about prioritizing them while most of them were victims of this invasion. Add to that the guilt that was quietly lingering inside me for being the reason why their worlds were attacked, I could only adjust my mindset.

Although not a lot of them had the selfless mentality, they still wanted to help other worlds that were experiencing the same invasion from the Dark World.

"What did he say?"

"He said it's possible. He will arrive here in three hours."

That Principal… As I expected, he already had his footprints on every Mortal Worlds. He'll be opening the Portals for us…
