The Ultimate Support Character

After that meeting where it ended with me triggering the Door of Transcendence, the delegates were ushered back to their rooms.

Well, except Sen and the 10 who put down the Exit Modules. They were all taken as captives.

Lunaria was given a new room away from the other delegates. We wouldn't reveal her yet and that was also her wish. She was there and saw what happened so she's already aware that a change will soon come. Due to Leianne revealing everything like that, most of her story checks out. She didn't really need to be protected anymore, however, there were still things that remained uncertain that's why we have to be careful.

The Emperor, The three Guardians and the Anzeans.

Everything that was recently revealed came from the words of those related to them. Though Imperial Princess Leianne and Sovereign Princess Elise's determination could be seen earlier, it's still a matter of who will support them. Others just succumbed to absolute power after all.

At least, based on my observations during it, they really wanted to reverse the situation. For the Sovereign Princess, it was to bring back the real essence of her organization and for the Imperial Princess, to stop the need of having everything destroyed. Their strength was still a bit away from Power Level 100. If I have to guess, they are around early 90.

Since there are no more small stages or Tiers at Legend Rank, they just needed to accumulate slowly, be it through natural or external means to reach the threshold.

Matthew has stayed with the Imperial Princess to guard her instead of going back to his room. Kazeyoshi also didn't go back to his room, instead, he went with Amry. The two of them were with the Sovereign Princess, guarding her from Viper.

Ah. Apart from guarding, Amry was also asking Elise about everything the latter kept hidden from her.

Lastly, Kreed and Viper were in their rooms, maybe they already relayed what happened but that doesn't matter anymore. The two of them chose to leave tomorrow along with the standard Metagen Pilots. Nysia wouldn't stand more bugs appearing inside the building. She sent down the order that they will be killed if they don't leave tomorrow which scared them out of their wits.

Based on every delegate's reactions, they would be too good of an actor if everything was just an act.

"Why did you show it to them?"

Nysia asked when we finally moved back to her room at the top floor. We're already on her sofa bed, enjoying each other's company again.

When she said that, I could feel the hint of worry on her voice.

Err... I admit. I did that without thinking it through.

"If the Mythic-ranks are confident that they can cope with it, those under them will surely believe in them. However, now that a new Mythic-rank and someone as young as me will soon rise up, they will start having doubts. As you can see from Kreed's reaction."

That's the subordinate mentality. Look at Viper, despite everything, he would really kill Elise just because it was ordered by the Enthroned Prince.

"Idiot. They might send assassins to you before your attempt. Not just them, if their minds are really closed, they will inform the Anzeans and the Darkbugs to do it for them. Back then, I went to a truly desolate area to breakthrough to Mythic-rank. I waited for a week there and only when I'm sure no one followed me did I call for the Door."

This time, it's not just a hint. Nysia's face was plastered with her worry. The thought of the enemy attempting to end me before I become a true threat made her like that.

That's not really impossible. Considering the Emperor's ambition or the Guardians' low self-esteem, a new Mythic-rank and someone really close to Nysia would be considered as a threat to them.

"Assassins? I have my strongest shield here, no one can hurt me when I'm in your arms like this."

I tightened my arm that was wrapped around her back to snuggle close to her. We are coiled together in bed that she could cover my body completely if we rolled a bit to put her on top.

Being playful like this to ease her worry, I reached in to kiss her lips.

Understanding my intention, Nysia didn't shy away from it. As my lips overlapped hers, her worried face started to ease up as it was slowly replaced with her loving and warm expression.

We savored that kiss for a few minutes wherein even our tongues met each other.

When our lips separated, there was a longing look which remained in her eyes.

With our destinies tied together, it couldn't be denied now. I love this girl, even if we haven't said those words to each other yet, it could be clearly felt from our actions.

Now that she's devoid of her worry, I told her what I will really do.

What I said about her being the strongest shield is true but I don't plan on relying on her to escape that possible scenario once the news about me reached the enemies' ears.

Nysia has the League. If I stayed here, everyone would be implicated because of me. I don't want to use her organization to shield me from something I did recklessly. If they employed both Anzeans and the Dark World, the League wouldn't be able to cope with it.

I told her to broadcast that I will be sent on a mission alone. Though it would look like a hasty action on our part, I won't cover my tracks for the first four hours to let them know my whereabouts.

It is to not let them think that I was holed up in her tower. I have the orbs with me, escaping pursuit will be easy, even more so if I'm alone.

Nysia understood my intention. That's why she didn't comment about my plan and instead, she suggested a place where I could wait it out. The same place where she broke open the Door of Transcendence.

"I want to tell you to rely on me this time but you're right, I have to stand guard here. I'll be missing you again, Daisuke..."

This is her territory, she will be in her strongest here. If I leave, the possibility of the city being attacked will lower as they will focus on stopping me from reaching Transcendence. Even if they're working with the enemy, that Emperor wouldn't be too stupid to think of eradicating the League. That would lower his chance to achieve his ambition.

"Don't be silly. You waited for ten years just for me to appear before you. This time, it's just three days. I will be back before you know it."

"Haa. Why are you always this confident? Then Daisuke, when you come back, will you marry me?"

"This girl. Why are you the one proposing? You'll be the first, you know?"

"Un. I'll talk to the others about it, if they're opposed to it then I will wait for my turn."

"You're really serious about that. Alright. I'm planning to marry all of you anyway. Let's ask them together when I'm back."

I already did that thing with Yuko and Yumiko before coming here but this, marrying someone... With how the worlds will turn crazy soon, if this can provide them happiness then I will marry them all.

Upon hearing my acceptance to her proposal, Nysia expressed her happiness by kissing me again.

And due to that, we fell once more to the same passionate atmosphere from earlier.

After satisfying ourselves, Nysia shyly switched our position. She's now snuggling to my chest in an attempt to hide her flushed red face.

When Nysia calmed down, we went back to talk about what happened today.

The interrogation results, the secrets that were unveiled and lastly what we will do for tomorrow.

With me leaving for my Transcendence, Nysia will meet Leianne and Elise to talk about what they will do to reverse the situation. She already planned to make public about the existence of the Order of the Dark Host.

Maybe they will make their own organization like pulling the Light's Cradle in front of the Dark Host to make it a separate entity. In any case, everything will be decided by them tomorrow.

Once we're done discussing everything, the time for Yumiko's Transcendence arrives. We both sat up and rested our backs on the sofa bed's backrest.

It will only be 10 minutes, that's why we timed it in at least 5 minutes after she started.

I haven't received a notification from either of the two yet, so that means it's still ongoing.

Once I activated the Interdimensional Communication, Jayna immediately answered it.

As soon as the screen appeared in front of us, a breathtaking image could be seen from a distance.

A huge archaic double door was hovering above the sky, below it was Yumiko in her Earthly Angel form.

With her Sea of connection behind her, a Phantom of a Higher Spirit could also be seen on top of it.

In that form, she was currently attacking the door, trying to push it open.

"Daisuke? Sister Nysia?"

Jayna's face appeared on the screen a few seconds later, her striking greenish-red hair was fluttering along the winds produced from the impact of what was happening above her.

"How long since she started?"

I asked Jayna who couldn't decide whether to look at me or at Yumiko who was doing her best to punch open that huge archaic door.

"It's only been 10 minutes. Hey, that door… will I also have to strike at it like that when I reach that point?"

"Don't worry. Watch carefully so you will know what to do when your turn comes."

Hearing my words, Jayna nodded her head before looking up to Yumiko once again.

"That's the Door of Transcendence, that's actually just the first part. If I remember correctly, it took me 30 minutes to break open mine. Yumiko is doing great, look, there are already cracks."

Nysia pointed at the spot where Yumiko's fists were making contact with the door. Web-like cracks have started to spread from it.

Through the screen, I started to observe the door. It didn't look illusory in nature. It's a physical object that was probably materialized for the sake of someone's Transcendence.

If one looked really closely, the area above it was obscured by some kind of hazy mist that prevents someone from seeing what's waiting beyond that door.

"You said that's just the first part. How many parts are there before one completes it?"

"Three. But even that first part will not be easy. She prepared herself for it so let's just watch quietly. Especially you, you'll experience the same thing in three days."
