The Ultimate Support Character

While Daisuke and the Space Vessel carrying them traveled parallel to the fleet, Remilia who set out to search for Alwyn's whereabouts had met up with the group chasing after her.

Not really met up but she caught up to them wandering around the adjacent World Zone, searching for Alwyn's Space Vessel.

After ordering them to stop, Remilia boarded their Space Vessel, her dominating Monarch presence engulfing the whole ship.

"What do you mean you lost her? Incompetent bitch." Remilia cursed along with the sudden blossoming of her Transcendent Aura, sending chills down the spine of everyone inside.

With her status as a Monarch serving directly under Great One Zaraya, the overbearing and ruthless Inyoin and her crew could do nothing but kneel down to plead for forgiveness from their incompetence at catching Alwyn.

However, even though they're terrified, their confidence in catching Alwyn rose. Remilia is an established Monarch. A Rank 4 Transcendent that could be considered invincible even in most Transcendent Worlds.

There existed no ounce of doubt in their minds that Remilia was an ally that could help them.

Even more so when they truly reached a dead end on their search for Alwyn.

"S-she suddenly disappeared. Her Space Vessel's tracks stopped at this point." Inyoin pointed at a certain part of the map shown in their navigator.

"Suddenly disappeared? There's no wormhole or even a black hole in this area which she can use. Have you checked that Chaosworld?" Remilia stared at the same map and contemplated before pointing at the nearby Chaosworld that reeked too much of the corruption properties of Chaotic Energy.

"W-we haven't. I'm not confident to survive inside..."

"Truly useless... Go and steer the Space Vessel there, I'll go and check." Remilia cursed again but without any clue where Alwyn landed, she really had no choice but to check inside the Chaosworld.

However, when she thought about the information she got from Daisuke, there should be a Transcendent World nearby. Alwyn was deliberating where to land to replenish her Source Energy fuel after all.

'Transcendent Worlds can move but these idiots should've found a trace of it and saw it move away from this location. It can't possibly suddenly disappear even if its speed is faster than most Space Vessels. Anyway, without any other clue, I better check on that place first. That can also be a great graveyard for these idiots.' Remilia began contemplating while flashing a sinister smile as the clueless Inyoin and her crew restarted the Space Vessel and steered it towards the nearby Chaosworld.

This time, even if they're scared, with a Monarch among them, they're confident that they would survive a swarm of Space Oddities. Little did they know that the Monarch they're starting to rely on had other plans for them.

Time passed when we began following the Space Vessel fleet by traveling parallel to it.

We passed by different Star Systems and not once found a Mortal World. Even though this was already the eighth layer of Density Zone 1, with too many World Zones, it was still rare for a Source Energy World to exist too close to each other.

The Anzeans and the World of Meta existing in the same star system was one of those rare occurrences. Furthermore, the Anzean's World experienced such catastrophe resulting in the near destruction of their world.

That's also a rare occurrence and like the Dark World promised, the situation of that world could still be improved or rather restored as long as the Source Energy Core was intact. But it would take a long time or if they're lucky, a peak Sage Realm expert could help them rebuild it.

It's a good call for them to migrate their population rather than have them die in it. Now that they settled in the World of Meta, the Source Energy of their future offspring would be Meta Energy.

Well, Dannae's father who's serving as the leader of their race had begun urging them to switch their Source Energy to Meta Energy. That way, it wouldn't be hard for them to progress in their Mortal Pathway.

Anyway, back on the topic of our tailing the Space Vessel Fleet, to make sure that we're not losing them, I took it upon myself to scout them.

Using a small disposable Space Vessel, I would sometimes go out to check if they're still traveling in the same direction. And if they detected me, I wouldn't hesitate to abandon that Space Vessel and return to Kingfisher.

Although the fleet would also send out one or two small Space Vessels to check my abandoned Space Vessels, they still continued on their way.

Naturally, I never ruled out the possibility that they're already suspicious of someone following them. That's why I showed myself to them once.

When those scouts they sent sensed my strength, they didn't dare act arrogant and even bribed me to go in a different direction.

I accepted their bribe, of course, and promised them that I wouldn't cross them.

Who would shy away from free resources?

When I returned to the Kingfisher, I had my Companions use it for themselves and some were used to replenish our Source Energy fuel.

And with that promise, I didn't go out for a few days but that didn't mean we stopped checking on their status.

In place of me, my Companions would go out in groups of threes just to make sure that they could protect themselves out there.

And that situation continued for at least five days before we stopped in place.

During the last probing that I did instead of my Companions, the Space Vessel fleet finally reached their destination.

And to keep outsiders from snooping around, they sent out Space Vessels to create a perimeter.

"What should we do, darling? If it's a Mortal World, they can conquer it easily." Sofiel uttered the question that everybody wanted to ask.

"Un. Thankfully it's not the World of Meta or Barbarians, but even if they manage to conquer it, they still need to wait for their World to arrive and assimilate it. They can restrict its World's Will but they cannot extract its Source Energy core or the world will be on the brink of collapsing. That's inefficient when it comes to Mortal Worlds. It's unlike Earth that can still exist with an inactive core or while the World's Will was unawakened."

That's how it is when it comes to the Mortal Worlds. Rather than extract the Source Energy Core, Invasive Transcendent Worlds would have to go and assimilate them.

The exception to that was the Invasive Mortal Worlds or the neglected Created Worlds. Since Mortal Worlds couldn't move by itself, they had no choice but to invade a Mortal World and extract the Source Energy Core to assimilate it to their world. When they managed to become a Transcendent World then that's when they would start assimilating everything, including the landmass of a Source Energy World.

The reason why those Rank 3 Transcendents who managed to land on Earth wanted to find the Source Energy Core was to restrict it from being awakened. Besides they never expected that the Earth's Source Energy was already regenerating. They thought it's an easy conquest.

"Anyway, I confirmed that the Mortal World they surrounded isn't one of those connected to me but there's a huge possibility that it's connected to Earth and the fleet came from the Overworld Serpent. Let me infiltrate and gather more information first."

I couldn't be careless when dealing with unknown enemies especially if it's an organization that's a collective of most existing Invasive Worlds.
