The Ultimate Support Character

Chapter 602 The Childish World\'s Will

When we went to pick up the woman from the sly old man, she was still bound by the energy-restricting chains. With both of her hands restrained and her mouth covered by a reinforced cloth to prevent her from screaming, she only lacked a straitjacket to be mistaken for a patient of a Mental Asylum.

Ah. Actually, she went into a berserk state as soon as I entered her vision. The pupils of her eyes shrank to the point that they looked like a dot as she glared at me full of fury. Like a wild beast who wanted to tear its prey apart, she started struggling within her chains.

The three women with me looked at her with a complicated expression but no one truly sympathized with her.

She almost killed me and if not for the Eye of Nihility that she possessed, she might also hurt my Companions when she decided to self-destruct and bring us to mutual destruction.

No one, not even the kindest of my Companions would truly find her pitiful.

"I\'ll speak with her first. Her identity will be erased after we\'re done. I\'ll hear her out for the last time and face her rage head-on."

I said to Yuko and Fleur who probably didn\'t want me to enter the room the woman was detained in. They\'re not just here to accompany me, after all. They\'re also here to make sure that the white-haired woman wouldn\'t even think of touching a strand of my hair.

Yuko nodded and didn\'t say anything to me. With her Foresight, she already knew that nothing would change with this.

Fleur, on the other hand, reminded me that the woman almost took me away from them.

I assured her that I was not pitying the woman. In my head, I just want to see if her current emotion will stick to her even after her memory and whole personality have been erased.

Before stepping in, I looked at Yse just in case she\'d also offer some words. She kept her silence and simply looked at the invisible threads connecting us to the woman through her Eye of Destiny.

"Hey. I believe you understand what\'s going to happen."

I started with that upon approaching the bed she was bound to.

Clink-clink!

The sound of her struggle immediately filled the room as she agitatedly tried to lunge at me.

Her seething rage, despite not having any control of Source Energy, was fully conveyed to me through her eyes. If she could speak, she\'d already cursed at me a hundred times over.

"You lost and your eye had to give up on you. Olive was it? That identity will disappear after we\'re done with you. You can hold onto that rage and direct it to me but know what? I will be the one looking after the new you. The one without any identity. If someday that rage remains in you, I guess I\'ll give you the chance to exact your revenge on me. You have to be strong enough to challenge me though."

I focused on her face and then her body. As a peak Rank 3 Transcendent, her figure remained intact. She didn\'t look exhausted or malnourished. She\'s simply being eaten by her rage.

Even the wound she got after being hit by my Crest Release already healed.

Such resilience.

I waited for a minute before standing up again. Then while dodging her attempts to charge at me despite her bound status, I went behind her and picked her up on my shoulder.

Ignoring her struggles, I signaled for Yuko and the other two to follow me inside. Then using the Authority of the World\'s Will, I opened a Portal directly inside his abode, the location of the Earth\'s Source Energy Core.

"You! I never allowed you to bring anyone here!"

Not even a second after stepping inside the place that could only be described as mystifying, the voice of the hateful guy echoed across the place.

Yuko, Fleur, and Yse vigilantly looked over as the World\'s Will taking on the form of my younger version came flying from somewhere.

It naturally startled them as they\'d never met this guy in person, they only heard my narration of my meeting with him.

But now, the three women looked at us alternately.

For sure, from the side, it looked like I was an older brother to this idiot when in fact, I could be considered his offspring or a clone of himself.

"Aren\'t you sleeping? Too much for trying to recuperate." I smirked, ignoring his nonsense.

"I am! I\'m sensitive about intruders!"

"Intruders? Who?" I glanced behind me and skipped through Yuko, Fleur, and Yse\'s figure before facing the front again with a shrug.

Yuko and Fleur sure found it amusing. Yse, not so much.

As for the woman on my shoulder, her struggles seemingly lessened.

Even if she\'s bound by the restricting chains, it wouldn\'t be hard for her to understand where I took her.

"Enough! What are you here for?!"

Instead of flying into a rage, the young boy who looked like me roared and flattened his tone. With the colorful and dense Source Energy filling the place, he looked like a deity about to descend.

At this moment, just by stepping into this place, our natural absorption rate was already at full capacity.

And among us, Yse was taking the most benefit. Even if she\'s already as strong as Rank 2 Transcendent because of being added to my Support List, she\'s not like my Companions who are benefiting from my Shared Growth. Both she and her husband had yet to breakthrough to the 2nd Realm of their Transcendent Pathway.

Maybe after we\'re done here, she\'d be a step closer to it and her stats would become equal to Ezyn\'s current strength.

"Do I still have to point this out for you? I need your help to erase her memory and whole identity. And while we\'re at it, severe her current attainment. She\'s going to start over."

As I said that, I dropped the woman who instantly slumped down to the ground. She\'s still weakened and with the dense Source Energy around us, she\'s probably dumbstruck at what she\'s seeing.

"Okay—Do you think I\'ll agree that easily? Tell me the situation. Don\'t leave anything behind."

"What for? Not like you care about my matters."

"Yeah. I don\'t care. But I\'m not your servant or your friend. I\'m the World\'s Will of Earth."

"And finding out my reason is important because of what?"

"None of your business. If you\'re not going to comply. Leave and find someone else to help you. I\'ll also take away the Authority I\'ve given you. You can\'t just bring anyone here."

I see. This guy is trying to be difficult just because he wants to. There\'s no deeper reason to it. He just wanted to make a fool out of me.

"Dai-kun... Should we leave?"

Perhaps worried that things weren\'t going our way, Yuko tugged at my sleeve. Fleur was also expressing the same sentiment.

"Don\'t worry. This guy is just acting up."

That\'s not reassuring but at least, that eased up their expression.

Facing the front again, I found the hateful guy smirking as though he\'s enjoying their reaction.

"Alright then. If you\'re not going to help me, I\'ll leave that woman to you. Look after her, okay? You can kill her but believe me when I tell you that you won\'t have any peace from today onwards."

Turning around, I opened up a Portal leading outside. And like a fish falling into the bait.

The hateful World\'s Will waved his hand, closing the Portal right away, preventing me from even putting a foot out.

"Tsk. This is the last time. The last time you\'re going to disturb me. You hear me?"

Yep. What a childish World\'s Will. Did he really put all of his emotions into me? I\'m starting to find that unbelievable.

"Sure. I\'ll knock next time."

With a smirk, I stepped forward and crouched down before the woman. One by one, I started removing her shackles.
