The Ultimate Support Character

"Enemies! Traitors! Quick, report this to His Excellency!"

The guard leader of the Dark World Zone shouted to his subordinate.

However, before the guard who heeded his command could step away to send a report, an Energy Arrow shot straight to his head. It instantly killed not only him but also those standing behind him as well.

"Anyone! Just go out and report!"

Seeing the one he commanded died just like that, the tone of his voice as he shouted again changed to a pleading one.

Anyone will do as long as they can relay to their higher-ups that five Transcendents of the Noxian Race showed up and started attacking this Dark World Zone.

With Jayna and Boris' ability to disguise us, all of us looked like Noxians. The Noxian expendables below were all in awe as we flew and surrounded the whole Zone with our Transcendent Auras, preventing those Rank 3 Mortal and below to move, and restrict those Rank 4 and above to unleash all they had.

Only those who were really determined could lift their fingers and raise their weapons to defend the Zone.

Though we set off some placed traps, those were slow enough to easily dodge it with our abilities.

There's also no need to truly rile up the hearts of the expendables and let them start a riot like the first zone. It's already enough to make them stop at what they're doing to put the Dark World denizens in a confused state and be alerted in case they got the idea of revolting against them.

And with the Zone not having any Transcendent to protect it, I estimated a short enough time to finish everything before we move on to the next target.

Before entering here, the World's Will started coordinating with me and told me that her Incarnation was already on the move as it started to covertly go around the Zones and to create the optimal path towards the real location of the Portal.

What she showed me earlier was a dud or in some modern terms, a Repeater. There's a towering device in that place that was picking up the surges of Dark Energy that were being released whenever a Transcendent passed through the Dark World's Portal. It's also amplifying that surge to fool the World's Will by masking the original and weaker surge of Dark Energy.

With Jayna's arrow shot as the trigger. Boris followed up as his whip was enlarged by his Illusion Eye before coating with an Elemental Spell of his making. When that Spell finished casting, his enlarged whip hit the ground and every Dark World denizen covered by it was squashed to the ground. The Noxian expendables were all spared to create an illusion that we're doing this attack for them. Temporarily since it wouldn't stay that way.

Following Boris' attack, Hikari opened up her copied Domain of Valor and Bedevilled Outburst from me before creating a gigantic 10-nodes Light Elemental Spell which created a large Light Energy Ball. Once she completed forming it, she also threw it down to the ground, killing every Dark World denizen hit by it and sparing the Noxian expendables.

Through those three attacks, the Noxians who were still under the pressure of our Transcendent Auras rejoiced loudly which made the Dark World guards near them to be irritated. However, like Noxians, it's hard for them to move and even if they did, the difficulty in activating a skill or ability would just put them in a predicament.

The thought of a Noxian Transcendent using a Light Elemental Spell being suspicious only passed by everyone's mind as they were all occupied with something else.

For the Noxians, it doesn't matter anymore as long as they're strong enough to give the Dark World denizens a kick. They also knew that the five of us weren't part of any Aristocratic Family, otherwise, it would be seen on our clothes or our specialties.

For the Dark World denizens, they're thinking about how they could live through this day. They probably took up this job of guarding a Zone as it is the safest one. Right. Just like the reasons of those willing to become expendable.

Following Hikari's Light Energy Ball, Fleur lifted her branch staff that was also disguised into something else. From the tip of it, Water Elemental Energy swiftly gathered into a gigantic cloud of Energy.

When the Elemental Nodes around her Spell Nucleus became filled with Water Elemental Energy, a huge storm ensued as crystallized water droplets started to rain down on the ground, penetrating the black armors of some of the Dark World denizens, leaving a huge hole in their body which froze on its edges preventing any chance for them to heal it with their Dark Energy.

"… It's over."

The guard leader muttered as he watched his subordinates die one by one under the attacks of four Transcendents.

In his mind, he's probably regretting the fact that he chose this kind of job. It's easy, yes. But the hazard of coming into contact with enemy Transcendents is high and today, he's experiencing it without any chance for him to counter-attack or even report what's happening to those who could fight us.

To end their suffering, I also joined as five Clones were generated using the Totem. With my lead, all of us opened Bedevilled Outburst and started to bombard them with Energy Explosion Projectiles, Apart from those inside the space where the three devices are located, everyone outside of it wasn't spared, including the Noxians who were just rejoicing from the plight of the arrogant Dark World denizens.

I'm not like Raiden who would revel in joy to crush the weaker enemies but this one's necessary to smoothly complete our objective.

The Noxian who became aware that they started to be hit by my projectiles started screaming at me but all of those were all ignored by me. They're on the other side of the line and I neither have the time nor the intention to deal with them. Instead of foiling our plan, ending them along with the Dark World denizens would be the most efficient choice.

We're also not an ally of justice. We're just fighting for our very own survival. It's not even a meaningless slaughter so… enough with mulling over it.

When the screams died down a few minutes later, I had the clones enter the area where the devices were placed. Even if they're prepared, they're all helplessly dealt with easily.

Afterwards, I also entered while the others checked the surroundings to make sure that no one would escape the place to report what happened.

I picked the Converter device apart and stored it inside the Necklace. After that, using my Energy Control, I gathered the surrounding Dark Energy the same way the World's Will showed it to me before.

And from the necklace, I brought out the half-filled tank to store the gathered Dark Energy. Since it will be enough, I brought out more energy tanks that were used to store the Dark Energy given to the Guardians back in the World of Meta.

Since we didn't focus on absorbing, I finished storing the Dark Energy and left a bit of it to the installed Tank device that was connected to the Zonemaker.

For us to continue unhindered and undetected in the meantime, the Zone will be left with a little amount of Dark Energy inside the Tank. Without the Converter device, it will stop working and will shatter on its own when the Dark Energy from the Tank was emptied, giving us a few minutes or possibly hours before they notice that one of their Zones was destroyed.

I still have a lot of empty Necklaces after emptying the Energy Stone contents of it. Now I planned to fill it up with tanks of Dark Energy as well as Elemental Stones if an Elemental Stone Mine will appear inside a Zone.

When they arrived, Yumiko and Jayna also brought more unopened Necklaces from the World of Spirit to give Sofiel, Fleur, and the other Transcendents their own storage equipment. Some got a piece of equipment from it but most were unusable.

"Go northwest and clear the Zone there. There won't be a Transcendent."

The World's Will's voice entered my ears as soon as we left the first cleared Zone.

Using Boris' Illusion Eye and Hikari's Light Elemental Spell which distorted light refraction, we all jumped onto Jayna's miniature Spirit Ocean filled with numerous haste spells to blast through the distance to the next Zone.

As long as we don't pass through a clear Energy Sense or a Transcendent Aura, no one will be able to detect us. Taking the two of them with us is a good choice.

"How's your Incarnation doing?"

I replied through my consciousness once we landed at the next Zone.

"It's still undetected and already 80% through its recuperation. It will be waiting at the next Zone. Also, there's no movement from the Noxian Capital yet. However, there's a possibility that they're also traveling undetected before my eyes."

"I see. If he's a typical arrogant young master, he won't be that crafty. But thank you for informing me. Please relay it to Sofiel and Yumiko to prepare at any moment."

Let's hope he's like that. Give him a high enough confidence to disregard our possible strength. Even if there's someone smart with him, if the leader is that stupid and arrogant, it will surely play in our favor.

"Will do."

"Well then, we'll go in"

I didn't hear the next response from the World's Will since the connection with her was instantly cut off as soon as my foot landed inside the Zone.

"Just like last time. Go all out. I will be watching your backs."

I addressed the four with me as they all spread out in four different directions of the Zone, alerting everyone who noticed our arrival.
