The Ultimate Support Character

Through the experiences I had gone through in my past life along with Yuko and the other girls, we had gone to different worlds and even special areas that could only be accessed through swimming across deep space.

More often than not, one would find a creature that was commonly known as a Space Beast that was resting on some stellar rock formations.

Usually, those beasts were peaceful but… every part of them was precious enough that Sage Worlds often hunted for them.

Ah. I remembered those Space Beasts because as I looked closer to the Space Vessel they used, the sparkling red coating on it wasn't some kind of paint but the blood of a Space Beast.

It looked as if it was sparkling under the sun but… it's a unique trait of the Space Beasts' blood. Even if most of them have different appearances, their blood was all the same material that was commonly used for Space Vessels made by… Sage Worlds.

Naturally… they didn't always come in red color. I wouldn't say I was an expert at hunting it but we had our fair share of encounters with those Beasts. We're also traveling using a Space Vessel from going world to world before after all. And whenever we would encounter chaotic Space Beasts, Yuko and the others wanted to take care of it so that no other Space Vessel would fall victim to it.

Perhaps they mixed it with something for it to take on that color. Either way, the blood of the Space Beast could let the Space Vessels utilize the Chaotic Energy existing in Outer Space.

That's probably how this Space Vessel got past the blockade made by my father's group.

And if they only had this one Space Vessel or three if the other two had the same trait, then there's a possibility that the Space Vessels were only given to them by a Sage World or by only a Sage, it depends if it's a whole world backing them or just someone interested in Earth. There's also the possibility that they only picked up the Space Vessel somewhere.

Nonetheless, it's all the more reason for us to continue improving.

Without a Sage to show for it.. calling the Earth as a Sage World sounds like an exaggeration.

And without a Sage, we'll naturally be easy pickings if a stronger Invasive World finds us here.

For now, this should be the start.

And their Space Vessel would be a welcome addition to my plan of creating a force that could stand up against a Divine World.

"What a bold welcome. Do you think your mea-- Huh?!"

The red-skinned Rank 3 Transcendent eyes widened. Behind him, the purple-colored fog was now visible to their eyes. The Rank 2 Transcendents began sweating and exhibiting various side effects. And being caught with his guard down, the leader had just noticed that he's now affected by the same purple fog.

"W-what did you do--!"

RIIIIIP!

Along with that belching sound, the red-skinned Rank 3 Transcendent suddenly clutched his stomach and behind. His natural red face turned even redder from the embarrassment.

That sound… judging from the green gas that was now mixing with the purple fog of my Skill, the side effect he got was stomachache and thunderous fart.

"Hmm? It looks like my Skill got upgraded to the extent that even a Rank 3 Transcendent could be affected. -- My apologies, we failed to prepare a proper latrine for you to use. But you can dig a hole there and cover it up after you're done."

"I-I'll kill you!"

RIIIIP!

After issuing a threat to me and attempting to open his Transcendent Aura, another green gas blasted out from his behind.

As soon as that happened, his subordinates who were weakened by the side-effects of the Ailment Fog started coughing and retching, perhaps from the smell of that totally visible fart.

Gulping down the embarrassment he was feeling, the Rank 3 Transcendent turned around and shouted furiously at his weakened subordinates.

"What are you all doing there? Go and take him down!"

"After farting that loud and weakening them further. I must say, what you did was even more effective than the purple fog I sent."

I made a gesture covering my nose and upon seeing that, the Rank 3 Transcendent stomped his feet and jumped out of their Pillar-protected area.

Enduring the gross side-effect of the purple fog, he desperately opened not only his Transcendent Aura but also his Domain. He then exercised his control to focus those two on me.

"You see. I gave you an option earlier and now you're going to do this."

Against the incoming Transcendent Aura and Domain. I could confidently say that I didn't feel any threat from it.

Even my Adaptability which had its warning system wasn't flashing even a green threat.

Which means… This insulted Rank 3 Transcendent wasn't enough to endanger me.

Naturally, no warning didn't mean I would just take on what he'd thrown.

To counteract his Transcendent Aura and Domain, I needed to show him that even if he's a Rank above me, I could match his current prowess.

Restrict!

I waved my hand down and the surrounding Level 3 Earth Energy gathered behind me before taking in the form of white metal chains.

Following my hand movements, those chains of energy moved in a forward trajectory, facing the incoming focused Transcendent Aura and Domain.

CRASH!

With the sound akin to the breaking of the glass, the Rank 3 Transcendent's Transcendent Aura and Domain broke into pieces.

"What the fu--!"

Before he could even finish cursing at what he witnessed, at least 20 Energy Chains wrapped around his body.

As soon as that happened, his big bulky body dropped down from the air and buried himself under the desert sand.

"What do you think about the Authority of a World's Will? They had this ability but… it's taxing for them to use. As for me, I'm not them and I had the support of seven Worlds to reduce the backlash from using this at its full power."

Explaining things to the enemy? Well, it's not directed at him but the four women watching from behind me.

Even if I'm not looking, I could feel the hot and searing gazes of Nysia and Jayna. Elise and Lunaria were somewhat tame though but… I could also feel that they're intently watching what I was doing against a Rank 3 Transcendent.

I stepped forward and saw the state of the restricted Rank 3 Transcendent. He's squirming down there while the desert sand continued to fill his mouth.

Well, I didn't expect him to be down with just that, it's just restricting his Source Energy. His Physical Capability could break the chains restricting him given time.

And that's why before he could even recover…

"Willful Sword, it's been a while since I've used you, huh? You know, I also have a sword like you before. I wonder if he's still wandering somewhere in the wide Universe."

The excited Willful Sword that I unsheathed suddenly vibrated intensely when I mentioned another sword as if he's trying to convey that he's the only sword I need now.

"Alright, you're all I need for today, so let's get to work."

Filling the jealous sword with the blue-colored Swordforce, I took the stance to activate a Sword Skill.
