The Ultimate Support Character

To ease the pressure that they were feeling, I immediately closed both Energy Amplification and my Transcendent Aura.

"My bad. I didn't mean to--"

Before I could finish my apology, Hikari cut me off.

"You don't have to apologize, Daisuke. With that display, everyone's doubt is cleared. They're now more than convinced at what you claimed back then."

She then turned to the other 5 who all nodded their heads hurriedly.

Right. Not everyone will be convinced easily by words unless they see it with their own eyes. With that kind of pressure, if they still didn't believe it, they'll just be like the peanut gallery from those novels where at every turn, no matter how much the main character showed his strength or talent, they would still believe that he's nobody.

Well, that's a running trope and here, they probably just wanted more concrete evidence to believe.

When Hikari took her turn to eat and change into a comfortable clothing, I used the time to check on my new Pathway and new status.

Apart from awakening my Elemental Core that's now sitting in parallel with that invisible storage inside me there's no skill generated.

Every magic spell is man-made. And since there are Magical Academies, one can record down the process of using that magic skill in a book or a scroll. Also, each magic skill is categorized by the Main Element used.

I only have surface knowledge about the creation of magic spells but if I have to guess, they're most likely similar to how an Augmented Skill is created except there's a base Element for each magic spell. It's also similar to the Spells or Skills in the World of Systems.

But with my Main Element as Aether and Void. What does it mean? When the Elemental Core awakened, I already got the knowledge about the two but I still couldn't understand a lot about it.

Maybe that is why they're categorized as the Incomprehensible Elements?

Ugh... If I remember correctly, Aether is a classical element on Earth. It's an Energy that's existing in the cosmos or in other words, the energy existing in outer space and other heavenly bodies. It cannot be found inside the Earth but it can be observed. Well, that was what's written in old books. Knowing that there's an unknown history about Earth, there's a possibility that those old writings have been influenced by that.

The Aether here is one of the 8 variations of Elemental Energy and there's also the Void Element. Void is the state of nothingness. How can that become an Element here?

I know. There were already a lot of fantasy works on Earth which used void as a type of magic or an element. There's that one isekai anime in which the heroine was thought to be useless in magic since every spell she would cast all resulted in the spell exploding on her. As it turns out, she got the rarest type of magical element. The Void Element.

I guess I have to understand the two Incomprehensible Elements of this world slowly. There's already the knowledge inside my mind, however, absorbing that knowledge is as slow as a snail's pace. Looking at the bright side, it will eventually be absorbed and by then, the confusion I am having now will be cleared.

"Now this is like straight out of a sci-fi movie, Daisuke. This is what Kazeyoshi was talking about, huh?"

Hikari commented when she entered the cockpit of the Metagen I brought in this world. The others with her also exclaimed as they looked at the unfamiliar design that's surely out of this world.

Since my own Metagen is still not completed, I brought something else with me. It's not just a Specialized Metagen but an Ultimate Metagen.

Another spare of Lucas' All-black Metagen was found on his corpse. Leianne found it and gave it to me earlier when I talked to her. She told me to use this here.

I also brought a Powergen, it was the completed Powergen that was designed especially for my ability, Energy Control. I tested it and the result is satisfactory.

Due to the engine being powered specifically by Meta Energy, a Metagen can only be used in a limited time. My Flux Energy won't work since the engine was designed to absorb the surrounding energy. I would have to put my hand on it and transfer my Flux Energy at all times to keep the engine running. That's counterproductive.

I am only using this now to cut the time of traveling to the Human Race Territory.

A Powergen, on the other hand, can be used here since it is powered by the wearer's own Energy. My own Powergen will surely have it's time to shine here. To get this world out of danger.

"Yes. This is a Metagen. I'm also amazed when they first showed me."

Her eyes couldn't rest as she examined every part of the Metagen's cockpit. Looks like she's more of a sci-fi enthusiast than fantasy ones. The fascination in her eyes couldn't be blocked by that pair of glasses.

"Can I also Pilot this?"

"No. Your Source Energy is incompatible. Maybe in the future."

"That's something I will look forward to. If I understand correctly, you can channel your abilities to it?"

"Un. Watch, I just found the perfect targets to give you a demonstration."

I said before pointing at the screen.

From a distance, a group of black-dressed figures were flying towards our location. There's around 100 of them and they're all Rank 4 Mortal and above.

Just from the energy that was leaking out from them, the dark color that dyed the background behind, it's easy to identify them as Dark World denizens. They still had wicked smiles on their faces despite seeing the Metagen, unafraid of the pressure it was giving off.

"Eh? T-that's… They're here! What are you doing? Let's go now. Daisuke!"

Panic was instantly reflected on her face upon seeing the newcomers. And it's not only her, but also the other 5 which consist of 3 Magus and 2 Grand Magus have panic and terror written on their faces.

That's understandable. It's almost a week and they are still being hunted down like prey. Many of them already died without even a tomb.

"Huh? Hikari. Did you all forget what I am?"

I don't even need to lift my finger to annihilate that crowd of Dark World Mortals.

Furthermore, it's also great that they continued their pursuit. This is a great opportunity for showing off to Hikari and these elites of the Human Race.

Not that I desperately needed their awe and reverence. This is all to reignite that apparent dwindling hope inside them.

After suffering from their continued pursuit, most of them had already despaired at their fates which surely affected their mindset towards cultivation.

Even now that I appeared and showed that I'm a Zenith Magus in front of their eyes, it probably only gave them a sense of relief.

But if I show them how easily I will take care of their dreaded pursuers, it will lift their spirits up.

At least. That's the effect that I'm aiming for.

I took out the Totem Pole and started to pour Flux Energy into it.

As they watched me fill the totem with my Flux Energy, I could hear them gulping down their saliva when they were once again put under the heightened pressure which the totem emitted when it enhanced the energy that flowed into it.

After filling it up with the necessary amount of Flux Energy, I activated the skill.

Phantasmic Doppelganger!

Amidst their gaping mouths, a clone instantly appeared in front of the screen.

"D-did he summon another one of this giant?"

"No. That's not summoning. He used cloning magic."

"What kind of clone is that? What's his Main Element?"

"I don't know. Don't ask me."

As they discussed what they had just witnessed, the clone moved and instantly traversed the remaining distance between us and their pursuers.

Once the explosions produced by the clone filled the screen, they all froze as they watched the carnage the clone brought upon the Dark World denizens.

"Annihilated. Just like that…"

Hikari murmured. Her eyes squinted as she carefully digest what has transpired in front of her.
