The Ultimate Support Character

[You used 1000 units Level 2 Flux Energy to merge your Avatar\'s memory]

[Merging…]

[Merging Complete]

As soon as the sound of the notification ended, more than two days\' worth of memory instantly merged with mine. Part of it filled the blank in my memory when Remilia put me in an unconscious state.

Although it feels like how it is when the Support Incarnation\'s memory merged with mine, the Avatar\'s memory is different as it cannot talk by itself. It can think like me but only when I control it using my consciousness will it have the ability to talk.

Like I guessed, before I completely lost consciousness, I sent it a new command to jump back inside the Portal. At that time, the Avatar was busy fighting those Rank 1 Transcendents. Although the Avatar could keep them in check, with limited skills, being surrounded by them made it hard for it to easily take them down.

It created an opportunity for itself by decisively targeting only one of the Transcendents to create a way out and after that, it successfully made its way back to the Portal wherein the previously tight security already became lax after my capture.

Before they noticed it, the Avatar already jumped in. Compared to me who had some vague memories inside the Dimensional Passageway, the Avatar seemed to quickly arrive at the other side of the Portal.

After thinking about it, the time in there was frozen, even my own memory inside was kind of vague. Aside from remembering I used a lot of my resources to push my Pathways on the brink of breaking through, there\'s not a lot I could remember about my time there.

In any case, my Avatar had its body somewhat damaged when it arrived at the World of Elements. In its recorded memory, only a split second passed when it jumped inside fairly unscathed and exiting the Dimensional Passageway bruised and battered.

When the Mortal Ranks who were left in that area saw it appearing, they all froze in place. The Transcendents who were maintaining the Formation were already nowhere in sight.

Not giving them so much as a glance, the Avatar instantly sped past the double door and out of that area while leaving them a farewell gift of few Energy Explosion Projectiles to stop them from chasing after it.

Within its memory, the Avatar was prioritizing to look for the girls who I left behind. Dashing through those passageways while continuously absorbing the Dark Energy existing in that place to heal its bruised and battered body, it reached the area where Fleur, Jayna and the World\'s Will Incarnation were being surrounded by seven Transcendents. Three of those were the ones sitting on the circular plates. The other one was the leader and the last three were those reinforcements from the outside.

Noticing my Avatar appearing behind them, the seven Transcendents instantly became wary while Fleur and Jayna\'s face brightened.

Only the Incarnation noticed that it\'s not my real body. Nonetheless, that scene ended up becoming a battle where neither of the two sides backed down. Even without the Domain of Valor to buff them, Fleur and the Incarnation took the front while Jayna took the role of the support.

She was watching me always supporting them so she managed to pick up one or two of my habits which led to them easily entering into an advantage against the enemies.

With Fleur reaching the point of becoming a Rank 2 Transcendent, it didn\'t take long for the enemies to falter. Thanks to that, two of them died under the incessant barrage of Fleur\'s favorite Spell and the Avatar\'s Sword Skill.

When the remaining Dark World Transcendents couldn\'t hold anymore, they unanimously decided to run away, leaving behind the Portal Location as well as the Mortal Ranks who didn\'t have any chance to fight them.

At some point, Fleur and Jayna finally noticed that the Avatar wasn\'t my real body. Although it didn\'t have the ability to talk, writing is fairly easy. It tells them that he lost connection with me due to the distance of worlds as me being restrained by that special Chain. However, the Avatar assured them that as long as it is there, it means that I\'m still alive and kicking.

He would certainly vanish if I died. No matter what, he\'s a product of my Crown Skill.

The two girls were first worried but through the urgings and assurance of the Avatar as well as the Incarnation, they calmed down and went to look for Hikari and Boris that were still inside the Restriction Rooms.

Afterwards, closing the Portal became the Incarnation\'s job. Without any interference with the Transcendents, it was an easy task for her. Once the Portal closed, they destroyed the Zone and retraced our steps by passing by the Zones we cleaned up to get out of the middle of Dark World Zones. They didn\'t forget to destroy them on the way back, of course.

Thanks to the closed Portal, the looming threat that they were feeling significantly lowered.

The Incarnation was recalled back by the World\'s Will while the rest of them went back to Aves through Fleur\'s Teleportation Skill.

The following memories of the Avatar were spent in Aves.

Apparently, the Descendant of the Great One Rhellor, upon noticing the closed Portal stopped his march right before the doorsteps of Aves. Without confronting Sofiel and Yumiko who were behind the Concealment Formation, ready to fight him with everything they got, that Descendant immediately went back to reorganize his now limited forces. Sofiel even talked about it while laughing happily, describing him like a rabid dog who escaped embarrassingly when its tail got cut.

"Well, at least they\'re fine. I can finally put down my worry after merging the recorded memory."

I released a sigh of relief and looked out at the night sky of this world which I am seeing for the first time.

After a while, the sound of a rustling blanket could be heard as the girl who was comfortably sleeping in front of me woke up.

"… Did I fall asleep? Here?"

Alwyn asked in her melodic voice while pulling up the blanket I put on her. The red on her face couldn\'t be hidden despite the slight darkness of the room which was only illuminated by some kind of luminescent stone.

Well, despite being an Exalted, after she finished retelling me the history of their world, her head drooped down to the low table and suddenly fell asleep there.

Seeing her slightly creased forehead, which probably from the pressure and stress she was feeling by being commanded by Illiana, relaxed, I let her sleep there and looked for a blanket to cover her.

While she\'s sleeping, I took that time to talk to the four girls at the World of Elements through the Avatar. I told them my current status to ease their worries before I merged the Avatar\'s memory with mine.

"Un. You must\'ve been tired. I couldn\'t bear to wake you up so…"

"T-thank you and I apologize for this embarrassing display!"

"It\'s fine, don\'t beat yourself over it. In any case, thank you for your time."

"I\'m just following the Great One\'s command! Well then, I will be going."

Alwyn stood up and bowed before turning towards the door. She pulled out something from her black pouch and put it down on the low table.

"This is not that valuable but take it as my token of gratitude!"

After saying that, she hurriedly left my room without looking back.

Well, her reaction was normal. Falling asleep in someone else\'s room? Anyone will be embarrassed. Except for me, I guess.

I looked at what she put down and held it in my hand. It\'s a bottle filled with slightly golden round pills.

Is pill refining a thing here as well? Why didn\'t I encounter it with the other Transcendents before?

Although the possibility of pill refining and other similar things existing in some worlds is there, I didn\'t think I will be encountering it here in this world of all places.

I opened the bottle and took one of it. Just like before, my Adaptability worked on it and filled my mind about its use.

"I thought this would have an effect like boosting ones\' Energy or helping in ones\' breakthrough. But it\'s just a regular medicinal pill for injuries. I guess I set my expectation high. Breaking through isn\'t really that hard after all. Just the accumulation of energy. If there are really pills for it, it will be priced too high. Besides there are already those Energy Stones which can boost one\'s absorption, creating a pill specifically for that sounds unnecessary anymore."

I put the pill back in the bottle and threw it inside the Necklace. Afterwards, I started my first Absorbing session in this world.

Opening the Energy Zone, I took out the emptied tanks of Dark Energy to fill it up.

This is also the benefit of being in this world. I now have an unlimited source of Level 2 Energy. I used up all those we collected after all besides, my girls will need these to quickly advance once I returned to their side.

Six hours soon passed and my Absorption Session ended. During it, I already accepted the calls from my Companions from the other worlds. However, due to the distance again and probably the restriction of the world, the supposed 10-minute duration was halved and it required more Energy to maintain the connection.

That\'s only enough to tell them my current situation. Just like with my Companion at the World of Elements, I told them that someone was helping me on this side.

I haven\'t tried the Portal Skills yet. I\'m at a place filled with Transcendents stronger than me after all. And thinking about it, add the distance that was always mentioned, it might not work at all or worse, if it works, someone might exploit the traces I would be leaving behind.

However, I\'ll still find a chance to try it when I\'m truly alone somewhere. It\'s always better to confirm than overthink things.
