The Ultimate Support Character

Chapter 191 Back To The Free City



2 minutes later, I already passed through the net they made and saw how thick it was. I would really be detected easily and would have a hard time going back to the city if I was weaker than those two and didn\'t have the Orb of Concealment on me.

Metagens, various aircrafts and even drones.

They\'re dead set on not letting me out of their sight. Due to that, I decided to give them what they want. They\'re still near the Scorched Forest so I needed to pull them away from it.

Dannae, that girl would understand why I didn\'t go back to the tribe. Also, I already warned her enough not to show herself to others for now. Maybe when things calmed down she could see the world and not be restricted underground where she would surely be discriminated against.

Even if she\'s not my Companion, that ability of hers could be useful. As long as they stay underground, they would be fine. Nysia would surely send someone there to investigate the Special Environment.

Another 3 minutes later, I used Phantasmic Doppelganger to create 4 clones like what I did before, spreading them out in different directions.

This time, I still didn\'t conceal myself which led for five identical Darkgens to suddenly appear in the radar of those standing guard at their place.

Almost instantly, both Metagens and aircrafts alike turned towards me. At first, they were only watching as I gained distance from them but after a while, they started to move and tailed behind me.

It\'s pretty pointless after that show but I needed to do this to pull them away from the Scorched Forest.

Among them, there\'s no Specialized Metagen so it\'s clear that their purpose was only to surround me. The net would surely work if it\'s against a Rank 5 Mortal even if he\'s a Rank SSS+ but against a Transcendent? They needed to have a stronger Transcendent that could lock me in place.

I only have one destination anyway and that\'s the Free City. That Special Environment and the tribe living there should be kept a secret, for now, especially Dannae. She could even be someone special among the Anzeans, who knows?

8 hours instantly passed and soon enough, the sun could be seen peeking out from the horizon. The tails following me has already decreased to only the drones, trying to keep up with me.

Those Metagens and aircraft pilots wouldn\'t be able to stand the exhaustion so they had to land and rest or they were just called back to go home.

In any case, I also needed to land for a bit. I\'m fine but the Darkgen also needed some kind of maintenance. It seems that something broke when it fell down from up high. The damage was already repaired but the engine needed to cool down for an hour for it to be completely repaired.

Landing also gave me the opportunity to use the Absorption Room.

I already missed one day so I thought of absorbing two days worth of Dark Energy. I successfully reached Transcendence but that doesn\'t mean I should start to neglect improving myself further.

With the show of my strength earlier, even the Transcendents I haven\'t seen yet would have to think twice before moving against me. Even if they did, with my increased awareness, I would be able to detect them easily.

After finding a suitable place, I landed the Darkgen and took out the Portable Absorption Room.

Before entering it, I looked up at the drones watching above and smiled. It\'s already pointless for them to continue monitoring me but I guess they\'re just sending me off and making sure I\'ll go home safely? Such a thoughtful bunch, eh?

My passive absorption has increased its efficiency by a lot. It\'s more than double before my Transcendence. And if I actively absorb, the previous 6 hours to consume 1 container will be cut down to 2 hours.

By reaching the same level as them, my Energy Control completely overtakes Nysia\'s or the other Rank 1 Transcendents\' energy control and absorption.

If I absorb unrestrainedly outside, the surrounding area will be dried up of energy in a short time. This is the point at which I guessed back in the World of Barbarians and also what the World\'s Will of the World of Spirit was being paranoid about.

I now have the means to deprive someone of his own Energy. Of course it wouldn\'t work on Rank 4 or 5 Mortals but below that, it\'s fairly easy to control their energy. Their ability or skills will be nullified by my Energy Control.

Haa… Of course, just because I\'m now able to do this doesn\'t mean I will indiscriminately kill those weaker than me. I\'m not Raiden.

Right now, my goals were still seemingly more or less the same.

My Companions as my highest priority. Uncovering the secret about my identity next and lastly saving the Otherworlds.

If I deemed someone as an enemy, I wouldn\'t hesitate to kill. But I wouldn\'t unnecessarily make enemies. Unless they\'re already established as one just like the Dark World, someone could still become an unlikely ally.

As of now, the trio of Transcendents with the Emperor as the head could be labeled as troublemakers of this world. The Anzeans whose motive for coming here was still a mystery could be labeled with a question mark.

True. Others might\'ve been implicated by their actions these past years in this world but that doesn\'t concern me at all. I\'m not an Ally of Justice who will answer to everyone\'s grievances. If they still have some use, I\'ll use them.

Err… I got deep into my overthinking again.

I shook my head and started actively absorbing the converted Dark Energy.

As time passed I soon fell into a meditative state. When useless thoughts left my mind, I started to explore deep into my mind. Just like that time when I dive inside to see where my ability came from.

Both Adaptability and Energy Control that I awakened were at the same spot of my Brain which confirmed my guess that the two were from the same type of Source Energy.

Further inside, I dived into my memory bank. From my childhood until that blank in my memory. At the last part before that blank in my memory, I found myself standing at that old playground, looking at the children playing there. The next part will surely be my first meeting with Yuko as a kid, at that old playground. Next thing I remembered was at least 2 years after that last part.

When will my memory be completed? If I remembered it, will my goals and priorities change?

My consciousness dived deeper and deeper asking for questions that didn\'t have an answer. Sometimes I would overthink and then take a step back until I came to a reasonable guess but all of that was tucked away deep in my consciousness.

6 hours later, 3 days worth of Dark Energy was emptied. The drones that were observing were still there but during the 6 hours, no one really came to disturb me.

After determining that, I jumped back to the Darkgen and continued my way back to the Free City of Nysia.

The sun was about to set again when I reached the vicinity of the city.

As I flew over with my Darkgen inside the City Walls, apart from the citizens below who were terrified from seeing a Darkgen flying in the city sky nothing else happened.

I already contacted them before I reached the city walls, that\'s why I went inside unhindered.

The drones tailing me also left my side when upon reaching the city walls. If they still followed inside, they would surely be shot down. Before they left, I left a message to whoever\'s watching me and sarcastically thanked them for escorting me back safely.

"Daisuke! Welcome back!"

Nysia\'s voice entered my ears as soon as I landed at the Metagen Garage, she\'s in a bright red garb that further accentuated her mature figure. Forgetting that there were others behind her, she immediately jumped and flew towards me as if we haven\'t seen each other for years.

"Are you sure you wanted to act like this in front of them?"

I spread my arms and caught her in my arms. Despite her hasty actions, she felt so soft and light. Though she was pouting before the call ended during that fight against Liam and Julian, she\'s really acting like a maiden this time.

"Who cares? I was worried, idiot. Both in your Transcendence and when those two blocked your way home. If you didn\'t contact me I would really rush to that place"

"You know how I am. I\'m someone who will not hesitate to run away if I don\'t see any chances at winning."

"I know. Of course, I know."

"Alright. I\'m sorry to have worried you, I\'m home, Nysia."

Because Nysia acted like this, Lexie and the others who were watching from a distance gave a sign that they would go inside, leaving the two of us alone. If the call last night didn\'t convince them, this probably cemented the image of Nysia on them as a lovestruck woman and not the strongest Mythic-rank that they saw during that night.

Well, since they\'re just there to greet me on my arrival and probably congratulate me for my Transcendence, we can do that later.

To satisfy her, I picked her up and carried her like a princess as we moved from the Metagen Garage back to her room at the top floor.

Lexie and the others, as well as the members of the League who saw us on our way to the VIP Elevator, could only stand there speechless upon seeing their Leader acting that womanly.

Upon putting her down to her bed, Nysia kept her hold onto me and pulled me to be on top of her.

Without any words exchanged, we fell into our own world. We haven\'t crossed the line yet but that would surely change after our wedding.

Before talking about the state of the world and the steps we would take to protect this world, easing up our longings for each other came first.
