The Ultimate Support Character

432 Assisting the Five Otherworlds (4)

Targeting the gold-robed Transcendent up high, I activated an old skill from my System that I hadn't converted to an Elemental Spell yet.

Magic Missile!

As the three homing Magic Missiles silently conjured from behind me, it went unnoticed by the five Transcendents surrounding us.

It was only possible because of my Energy Manipulation. Masking the vibrations of the Energy composing it could be easily down for a low-level skill like this.

While they were still smugly thinking about their strength and how they were surrounding us, the four white-robed Transcendents were suddenly startled when the gold-robed Transcendent above us suddenly flinched and issued a light groan.

"Wha?!"

Despite it being a skill that was for a Rank 2 Mortal, hitting someone unaware produced that kind of reaction.

Using that chance when their attention was stolen by the gold-robed Transcendent, I moved out from the middle of our group while leaving instruction to my five Companions.

"Fleur, I'll leave that guy for you. Take him down a peg. Avelin, Leianne and Dannae, take down those in front of you."

As for Zerina, I told her to standby and be vigilant. If there were more Transcendent showing up, intercepting them would be her job.

At the same time as I finished sharing the strategy with them, I pulled out the Willful Sword followed at the same time Domain of Valor and Bulwark of Invulnerability opened.

Following the same pattern as before, I aimed for one swift attack that would end this battle in a blink.

Forget about knowing their identity, that order from the golden-robed Transcendent was enough to give them the death sentence.

As I aimed the tip of the Willful Sword to the throat of one of the white-robed Transcendents, the blue-colored Swordforce instantly coated it as I activated a Sword Skill.

Flash Draw!

Before the sound of the rustling wind reached my ears, the feeling of the Willful Sword's tip piercing the soft body of the Transcendent was clearly felt by me.

Although he tried to fully circulate his Magical Energy at the last moment before the blade completely embedded itself inside his body, the Lightning, Darkness and the Elongating properties that the Willful Sword absorbed from its previous victims activated, destroying that last wisp of resistance.

By the time I pulled my sword out of his body, the three remaining white-robed Transcendents and the golden-robed Transcendent had a look of utter confusion on their faces.

"W-what the?!" The golden-robed Transcendent could only utter that question before Fleur also zoomed in to his position and hit him with her conjured Aquatic Beasts.

At every type of beast that would hit him, a part of his golden robe would be ripped off his body.

And even when he tried to use his Magical Spells to counter-attack, Fleur would throw in a quick Elemental Spell to disrupt his casting.

Following that, Fleur made use of her Transformation Skill, turning her into a true Water Elemental. By using that, her control over water heightened that in time she controlled the surrounding moisture in the surroundings creating a large sphere to drown the golden-robed Transcendent inside while the Aquatic Beasts continued feasting on him.

Switching my gaze to my other Companions, the same as that golden-robed Transcendent whose arrogance and confidence was already nonexistent, the other three also failed to find the time to lament about the instant death of their comrade.

Avelin, Leianne and Dannae moved out by following my words as they aimed not just to defeat them but also to test out the prowess of their new assimilated Pathways.

Avelin made use of her Pillar Guardians to surround one of the two female white-robed Transcendents before activating her Transformation Skill.

As soon as her Transformation was triggered, Avelin's pink hair became a brighter shade of red and her tight sleeveless clothes transformed to the same bright red color. Everything about her became a brighter shade of red, including her eyes.

At the moment, her Vigorous Energy Intensity switched to Cold all of a sudden as her malicious killing aura or rather, her conjured Seas from her Spirit Pathway materialized around her. Her Seas took the form of flowing rivers of blood.

With her sharp greataxe in hand, rattling as she moved, Avelin's appearance was like a demon that was about to clip someone.

The female white-robed Transcendent shrieked in utter horror as if she found something terrifying and fear-inducing as soon as her struggling eyes fixed onto Avelin's figure.

Taking that chance, the beast Pillar Guardians of Avelin started connecting their attacks and bites, turning her body to the same bright shade of red as Avelin's.

Compared to her overly innocent and adorable appearance pre-transformation, although there's still her charm, she's now more like an Incarnated Demon.

According to her, her Transformation was called Bloodthirsty Demon.

For her to get that kind of Transformation despite her original demeanor, I somehow regretted telling her to assimilate the Spirit Pathway.

Well, what's done is done and it was a truly useful ability, except I prefer my adorable and innocent Avelin!

The female white-robed Transcendent easily succumbed to the pressure of her Transformation, making the fight against them to become one-sided in no time.

Among the girls, Avelin defeated her opponent the fastest.

It's still too easy. This welcome party consisted of Mortal Ranks and normal Rank 1 Transcendents, save for that golden-robed. It would be embarrassing to lose against them. Fleur would be able to singlehandedly defeat all of them if I let her go all out.

On the other side with Leianne and Dannae, Leianne started casting Ice Elemental Spells that she found in the Library of Arland's City.

Although Ice wasn't a natural Element, it was a compound Element that could be produced by combining two or more elements.

While Leianne's Ice Spikes and Ice Chains whistled, crackled and shot towards the white-robed Transcendent, Dannae would shoot her gun to enhance those Spells followed by ordering her three Pillar Guardians from her newly assimilated Physique Pathway.

Contrary to my expectation, her Pillar Guardians all looked like an Energy Being that doesn't have a definite form.

The three Pillar Guardians crawled towards their unknowing opponent. As soon as they reached the necessary distance, they flung themselves towards him and held the white-robed Transcendent in place.

Their opponent, like the first three, tried to struggle by casting a Magical Spell but it was all futile when Leianne's thick Ice Spikes speedily arrived and stabbed his unguarded body. The Ice Chains also coiled around his limbs, oozing out a cold aura that gradually bit into his skin, giving him frostbites.

Amidst their screams of terror and despair, the blue-robed and red-robed figures from the distant flying ships all kneeled in fright upon seeing their Transcendents being defeated without too much effort on our part.

"W-who are you? Why are you here?"

As the last white-robed Transcendent scanned her eyes at the plight of her comrades, she directed a question that was too late to me.

"You know, you should've asked that way earlier. But no, you all have to ambush us and talk about killing us." I shook my head as I slowly closed the distance between us. "Tell me. Who's at fault here?"
