The Ultimate Support Character

Chapter 346 Higher World Denizens (3)



Within a blinding light that only sparked for a second, my Transformation to being an Energy Incarnate finished. The clothes I changed into from the World of Elements were replaced by the long white robes and my hair took on the same color. It also grew longer and reached my feet. Mysteriously, it became tied into a ponytail giving me a bit of an ancient appearance.

External appearance wasn\'t the only thing that changed within me. As soon as the light disappeared, my Energy Control grew to an extent. The trick I did earlier to pull Irja to me could now be used smoothly as long as she doesn\'t resist it.

Looking at the girl next to me whose clothes transformed into a more alluring one where most of her skin was showing. Her hair and the aura circulating around her transformed into a spectrum of different colors.

From the information she told me, her Pathway is called the Vibrant Spirit Pathway. It\'s the main Pathway of the Cloro Tribe under a Great One named Miyae. The last unnamed Great One of the Dark World.

Since there\'s no time to explain or there\'s no point to know about her, that\'s the only thing I learned about that Great One. She also lost a Tribe when the three Great Ones returned from a higher World but unlike Illiana and Halion, she never made a move. Perhaps, she stayed neutral throughout the years that have passed even after losing one of the tribes under her.

The Cloro Tribe where Irja hailed from isn\'t a Prime Tribe like Dafirae. And although this is just my guess after seeing how Irja fights, her Transcendent Pathway was probably about incorporating Elemental-type properties.

Unlike the Transformation of the World of Spirits where everyone might have a unique iteration of their Transformation, most of the Pathways in the Dark World which allowed them to transform themselves into something else was only a minor ability or even if it\'s a major one, it requires high maintenance.

Irja\'s Vibrant Spirit Transformation grants her quicker Energy Molding abilities as well as summoning pet-like semi-sentient Lesser Spirits which could help her.

During the fight against the five reds earlier, she hadn\'t used it because it was unnecessary to do so at the time.

"Fi, En. Help me." Irja said to the two Lesser Spirits who took the form of two small birds with contrasting elements. Fire and Water.

The two birds chirped happily as they flew and positioned themselves at her two sides.

With both of our Transformations complete, we hadn\'t had the time to appreciate each other\'s form because Rowena once again resumed her attacks.

"That\'s neat. However, you\'re all wasting your efforts."

From where she was standing, She made a stance and punched once.

The golden Energy gathered on her fist shot towards us. It took the form of her fist which gradually enlarged until it encompassed us and our immediate surroundings, preventing us to dodge.

Upon seeing that Irja and her two Lesser Spirits all countered it by combining their three Energy-Based Attack creating a multi-colored beam that aimed to drill through it.

To help us tide through Rowena\'s attack, with the increased Energy Control brought by my Transformation, the rate at which I conjured the Purple Swords increased.

Before the time it takes for her terrifying fist to arrive, five Purple Swords hovered in front of me and pointed at it.

Each of the Purple Swords shuddered and seemingly about to collapse because of the intense pressure of that single fist.

Upon seeing that, I merged the five to solidify it before joining Irja\'s counter-attack.

As soon as the merged Purple Swords and her multi-colored energy beam launched from us, without any words exchanged between us, Irja took my hand and pulled me up with her as she also activated her broom-like equipment, taking us to the sky.

Although we\'re faster at controlling, gathering or molding our energies to counter her, that fist from Rowena was still stronger. Partly because of her Higher Energy Source and her higher UPL.

Our hastily prepared counter was only enough to hinder it, allowing us to do something else.

"Useless."

Her eyes naturally followed us as we took the air and glided towards her position. This time, instead of staying still in her position, under Rowena\'s feet, a Domain opened and instantly engulfed the two of us.

[You have entered a Domain]

[Your weight has been magnified to 500%, restricting your speed and agility]

When that notification appeared, although it only contains one line, it immediately affected us.

The glide that should\'ve reached Rowena was halted as we were about to be pulled back down to the ground due to our increased weight.

It\'s just 500%. But because we\'re not used to it, the effect immediately made our movements sluggish.

And because she\'s the one controlling the equipment, my arms circled around Irja\'s waist to prevent me from falling off it.

"E-ember!" When she felt my arms around her, Irja blurted out.

It\'s not like I\'m trying to take advantage of our situation. The situation calls for it!

Without replying to her and while feeling the softness of the woman in front of me, I circulated my energy and activated one of my new skills.

Support Hero\'s Haste!

[You received 50% Speed and Agility Enhancement]

[Duration: 2 minutes 30 seconds]

\'Huh? A system notification? Ember?\' Monady thought upon seeing the sudden appearance of the notification and feeling the immediate effect on her body. It was brought about by a wave of energy from behind some of which covered and seeped into her body.

She glanced behind and saw the guy she suspected looking in their direction while clinging tightly on Irja as they descended quickly as if something was pulling them down.

Like her, despite their injuries, the other three also glanced behind to look at the two.

Each of them received the same system notification. Speed and Agility enhancement is no joke especially for them who are all melee combatants.

It hadn\'t been long since they charged towards Larnel. Even with their coordinated attacks, he single-handedly deflected all of them back to a distance, giving varying injuries to their bodies.

Monady\'s orders and the way she commanded them were exceptional. Even with the little time, she took the effort to arrange a viable striking formation by complementing each of their specialties to land a hit on Larner.

However, the gap between their UPL and its sudden increase after he compressed his yellowish-turned-golden aura was enough to foil their thought-up strategy.

"Great! Let\'s do it again!" Monady energetically shouted to the other after dodging one of Larnel\'s attacks aimed at her.

With the buff they received, she suddenly felt the lightness in her body that the earlier hard to dodge attacks of their opponent were now something trivial.

As she weaved through more and more attacks, the other three followed her in their own Transformation.

Upon seeing the sudden change in the opponents he was just belittling, Larnel felt a crisis looming near him.

For the first time, he took a step back and took a stance.

Yordi that was beside him also moved back. However, instead of helping him, he distanced himself from them while carefully observing the current situation.

Nobody knows what\'s in his mind, not even Larnel or Rowena.

When Monady and the others saw that, they once again performed their coordinated attacks.

Like Faren, she transformed to her own version of Crimson Spirit. Her crimson-colored aura expanded and became an apparition behind her. A crimson-haired lady who almost looked like her except for its bloody appearance.

Soon after that, the apparition merged with her body which somehow changed her appearance along with the heightening of her Energy Intensity. From its previous Calm, it became a Vicious one wherein her bloodlust seemingly took form and engulfed the readied Larnel.

Upon seeing that, Larnel made a mocking smile. They already did that once, although he became wary of that wave of energy which swept past them, the four\'s strengths remained the same.

Wooong!

As he was about to deliver a more vicious blow to Monady and the others, another wave of energy swept towards his location and this time, he suddenly felt his body being restricted and something appeared from the corner of his eyes.

\'What is this?!\' With only that thought filling up his mind. Monady arrived in front of him with a vicious but alluring grin plastered on her face.

"Irja! Now!" I shouted after activating my two Supplementary Skills.

Haste gave us the Speed and Agility needed to somewhat negate Rowena\'s Domain. Bind restricted her movements giving us this chance to deliver an attack she wouldn\'t be able to dodge.

Thanks to being in mid-air, I also made sure that my eyes also caught those at the distance. Because I\'m now away from them, the Supplementary Skills were the only support skill that could reach them. It\'s now up to them how they would benefit from that.

Upon hearing my voice, her reaction to how I grabbed onto her vanished from her expression as she instantly gathered her energy along with her two Lesser Spirits.

Down below, Rowena\'s eyes constricted when she felt her body unable to move.

I have no idea how long that will last. We have to make use of this opportunity.

After releasing my arm from Irja\'s waist, three Energy Explosion Projectiles were sent down to Rowena, giving her the three random debuffs.

After that, two towering Pillars were conjured behind me.

In a time it takes to blink, Flux Energy poured into the two Pillars and transformed them to their Guardian Form.

One of which transformed into a red-garbed mature woman with protruded horns on top of her head and the other transformed into a blue-garbed handsome middle-aged man with a golden halo hovering above his head.

Without the need to command them, the two Pillar Guardians swooped down and delivered a blow to the defenseless Rowena.

Following them, Irja along with her Lesser Spirits and me finally arrived in front of her who only received a bruise from the Guardians\' full-powered attack.

I jumped down and activated a quick Sword Skill.

Flash Draw!

As I went past her, I only heard the Energy Explosions the Willful Sword left behind after failing to penetrate her skin followed by Irja\'s point-blank range bombardment which finally resulted in a horrible scream of pain from the blonde woman.

When I turned around, Irja was already about to retreat when a blinding surge of energy exploded from Rowena.

Although it didn\'t break any of the Quintuple Shields around me, it\'s enough to blow me away from my current position failing to see what happened next.

When my eyes adjusted to the light, the only thing I saw was Rowena whose bloodied appearance took away her previous grace as she violently heaved for her lost breath.

Irja was crouching not far from her, one of her Lesser Spirits missing.

Haa...Even with that opportunity, we only managed to turn her into a bloodied mess. How will we go from here?
