The Ultimate Support Character

Chapter 447 Change

"The Circle of Miracle. Why does it appear in Japan?"

"The citizens who started exhibiting a variety of Abilities like the Superhumans after the appearance of the Circle of Miracle retold their experience."

"The notorious Dark Cult bases showed up and were no longer hidden from our eyes inside the Circle of Miracles!"

"The Truth about Earth. An exclusive look at what's really been going on these past three months."

Turning on the TV and surfing the internet, various articles about what happened yesterday filled it and it's still continuing.

There were truths out there but mostly, they're speculations from various media.

Because of what happened, all flights to our country were halted just to calm the general populace who was confused as to what's happening to them.

The crime rate also suddenly spiked up overnight when the previously clockwork-like citizens of Japan noticed the changes in their bodies.

Those who managed to start treading on the 1st Realm of the Mortal Pathway tested their newfound strengths on anything they could think of.

At least, because of the low crime rate from before, it's not as chaotic compared to what's happening to North and South Korea as reports of aggression started to spring up overnight.

The authorities in China probably started preventing the leak of the news about their citizens who managed to reach the 2nd Realm: Awakened. And for the far-eastern part of Russia, with how sparse the population at the part that was included in the circle, there's also not much news coming out of them.

Nonetheless, it instantly became an international fad that almost all of the population on Earth had the knowledge of in just one night.

That's thanks to the internet.

"Well then, we're going. Yuko, Yumiko, I'm counting on you." I stepped forward and planted a kiss on the two girls' lips which they happily received.

To completely restore the inherent Source Energy of the Earth, we're now set to travel around the world to enter the Pocket Dimensions scattered throughout.

Negotiating with the various country leaders to let us in was something that sly old man didn't need. Even if he didn't tell us about it, just the existence of the Earth Defense Army all around the world was enough to tell us about his current authority.

Aside from the media that was producing numerous articles every second, the Prime Minister of Japan only asked the people to calm down while telling them that the national government was already investigating the occurrence.

Well, it's as expected when a Rank 4 Transcendent like the Principal went around the world to hold each country by the neck.

Well, in truth, I hadn't asked him about what he did to make every country fall in line. Perhaps, he used force or perhaps he's already a definite authority even from centuries ago. That's something that he'd probably tell us soon.

"Un. Leave it to us Dai-kun." Yuko answered confidently while Yumiko hugged me as her answer.

Well, they're the natives this time who would become the guide for the other girls. Since I would only take the Orb Holders with me, the Principal left the command for the assault on the exposed Breached Portals to Yuko.

After explaining to those confused what actually happened, the Principal dismissed us last night.

Right after that, he also left, perhaps to meet the country leaders, informing them that the Earth was about to change and that there's the upcoming danger that our world would soon face. Who knows?

When he came back this morning, following him were the Heroes from various parts of the world.

Letting them assimilate to the Level 3 Earth Energy. When they did, some of them finally reached the threshold for Transcendence.

While some of the Transcendents got the boost they needed. Those who were not treading Psyche-type Pathway still needed to cultivate the Earth's Mortal Pathway from the beginning.

Well, that's not the only reason they were brought here, the Transcendents among them would be joining the attack on the Breached Portals. Those who reached the threshold would stay as well. They would join our 8 classmates who would do their Transcendent Trials at that Otherworld. They would be escorted by the Principal's subordinates to the Portal towards that world.

Truthfully, the Breached Portals and Dark Cult wasn't that much of a threat in my and my Companions' point of view. But for the denizens of this world, it was a matter of life and death. The same as what the Mortal World denizens experienced from the Dark World invasions.

Nonetheless, the cleanup of the exposed Breached Portals was just to remove the tumors.

We didn't have that much time left before some of the Space Vessels entered our planet. Even if my father or whoever's with him intercepting some of them, with the World's Will still in the same state, just the Rank 2 Transcendents from the Invasive Worlds would instantly lay waste to the land to plunder this world of its Source Energy that we're trying to restore.

Perhaps, they would also be rallying the Possessed Earthlings to create more chaos.

Furthermore, the problem wasn't only the Space vessels, there's also the upcoming Invasive Worlds that were moving towards us. They pinpointed our location. Sooner or later, they would arrive with their world.

It's not necessarily the Dark World and not every Invasive World was as strong as the Dark World which has the existence of Rank 5 Transcendents. Considering it took hundreds of years before they firmly stepped at that stage, it's evident how hard it was to reach that point.

Well, there's only one path for us now. To grow stronger than we are now. At least Rank 3 Transcendent of strength. Among my Companions, only Irja was close to it. Nysia, Fleur and Sofiel were around 500 UPL now but still somewhat far from the 700 UPL threshold of Rank 3 Transcendent.

After Yumiko released me from her hug, I also turned to my other Companions that were waiting for their turn. I brought them here from their worlds. It's not like they needed to wait for my instruction or I needed to instruct them on what to do. All of them could think by themselves so apart from some who openly showed how they wanted to come with us like Irja and Erin, the others showed a determined and confident expression on their faces.

"Kuramoto-kun. Let's get going. Stop making the other youths too envious of you." the Principal interjected with a cough before he pointed to the other Heroes watching us.

Some of them surely had some envious expressions while the others were surely confused. They weren't informed about the existence of my Companions after all.

Well, it's not like I wanted to flaunt. I was just as reluctant as these women to leave them.

However, unless we resolved everything, we would always be dragged into this, especially now that it's already a certainty that my identity wasn't simply a Support…

Ignoring the gazes of the other Heroes, I openly showed my affection to my Companions before following the Principal and stepping into the Portal with the five Orb Holders.
