The Ultimate Support Character

After entering the Pocket Dimension, I found a wide space and sat there cross-legged. Yuko and Yumiko followed me and settled on the side. They\'re watching me while also trying to improve their Unique Abilities even if its just a little.

Apart from them, there\'s also another person here at the Pocket Dimension who chose to watch my breakthrough.

Date Kazeyoshi, our classmate and one of the Heroes who I will be going to accompany to their Otherworld.

Dueto his ancestry, he is widely known to be idolizing the well-known warlord of the Sengoku Era, Date Masamune.

Due to that, he\'s basing his image on the famous illustration of Date that was often depicted in games and anime. Medium-long brown hair, a black eye-patch over his right eye, and the classic helmet with its golden crescent moon. Ah, he\'s not wearing that helmet but it was hanging behind him, held by a string. It was so he could equip it easily.

He also has his 6 Katanas before but it\'s nowhere to be seen right now. Maybe due to the Necklace we gave him, he finally found that it\'s burdening to carry all those at his side all the time. Though he\'s trying to look like him, his attitude and the way he talks is nowhere near close to the depicted Date.

The other two Heroes haven\'t met me yet but this guy was already in my Support List. He\'s the one that brought up the Intelligence stat average. Looks like he\'s the one with the highest base Intelligence stat or maybe there\'s some explanation to it.

Pulling out the Energy Stones that I haven\'t dug into yet since arriving from the World of Spirits, I arranged them neatly in front of me as if preparing for a ritual.

Err... Since I will be breaking through the three pathways, I\'ll probably need more Flux Energy just like the last time.

Asking for Yuko and Yumiko\'s help for this won\'t suffice so after piling up small hills of Energy Stones I started to break past my current realm.

"That\'s a lot of Energy Stones."

Kazeyoshi commented upon seeing me stacking those Energy stones. He even lifted his fake eyepatch to see what I am doing with his two eyes.

"He\'s cultivating three pathways that\'s why. He\'s only trying to tackle the 3rd Realm but his strength is already only slightly behind us..."

Yumiko sighed in amazement. Though she\'s sighing, there\'s a hopeful look on her face as she watched me.

"That\'s Dai-kun for you."

Yuko proudly said as she looked at me with undying affection in her eyes. For her, the vision of that future she saw was slowly being realized.

I looked at the two girls and nodded at them before starting.

Bathing me with Psyche Boost and the Psyche Energy of the surroundings first, the wind in the Pocket Dimension started to stir.

My control towards the inherent energy grew once more because of the additional intelligence stats I received. If that World\'s Will of the World of Spirits saw me this time, he\'ll probably send a lightning bolt towards me.

Along with the stirring of the winds and the energy around me, the small hills of Energy Stones started to be dissolved and turned to the multi-colored Flux Energy.

As it started to be absorbed inside me, the clouds of Flux Energy started to revolve around as my Streams materialized. Also, the Spiritual Twin which was merged within me was extracted and floated along with the Streams and clouds of Flux Energy revolving around it.

The five Streams fused with the clouds of Flux Energy as they covered the Spiritual Twin to slowly dissolve it.

Upon reaching the Transformed Spirit Stage, the Spiritual Twin will be extracted and be dissolved to become the foundation of one\'s Transformation.

When the Spiritual Twin was completely dissolved by both the Streams and Flux Energy, everything merged and coalesced together to turn into a wide expanse of a River. Though this River looks way bigger than the Rivers shown by the other Transformed Spirits, it is because the first River itself will be the one to produce the Transformation or the humanoid form for the Spirit Beasts.

As it swirled above me like a whirlpool, drops of what seems to be pure Spirit Energy covered my body. From a few drops, it eventually became a downpour which instantly submerged me inside that pure Spirit Energy.

Thereafter, my body started its transformation process.

Though there\'s no visible physical change in me, I could feel certain parts of my internal structure wriggled and changed into a physical manifestation of energy.

Err… yes, everything about me was slowly turning into solid energy as if it\'s normal.

After that, it expanded and covered all of my vital organs as well as my skin and flesh.

In this form, I will become nearly invulnerable to physical-based attacks.

Like I first thought, my transformation will turn me into something Energy-based, considering everything about me revolved around energies.

As soon as the whirlpool above me stopped raining, I stood up and still saw no change in my physical appearance except my hair which grew longer and my clothes which somehow also transformed into long white robes as it fluttered in the air.

After confirming that, a series of notifications rang inside my head.

[Advanced to Transformed Spirit.]

[Current Connection: 1 Rivers]

[Spiritual Twin Phantom has been removed.]

[Generated a Skill: Energy Incarnate Transformation]

[Energy Incarnate: Transform yourself into a physical manifestation of Energy which will give you near invulnerability to physical-based attacks as well as increasing your control over assimilated Source Energies; absorption not included. It can also allow you to phase through non-energy based objects depending on the thickness as well as having the ability to do short distance teleportations. The effectiveness of Transformation increases by the number of Rivers and will be perfected upon becoming a Noble Spirit. The Transformation is maintained by spending 5 units of Level 1 Energy/second.]

Energy Incarnate, eh? Who chose the name of my transformation? Is it the System? Is he fed up with my naming sense? It still contained the word \'Energy\' though.

Reading those series of notifications, I noticed that my energy is now being counted by units. If I go with my previous knowledge,1 unit of Energy is equal to my initial Boost Skills. Reaching Level 2 Adaptability increased the invisible storage to 200 units and every 5% experience increment adds another 100 units. Now that it\'s already 45%, that\'s another 900 units. My current capacity is 1100 units.

Psyche Energy has a separate storage since it was recognized as a higher energy, however, it has the same capacity.

Additionally, my body also has the ability to store Flux Energy, same as the other denizens. A 3rd realm\'s capacity is 1000 and will increase by 1000 at every Level or Stage or Rivers.

Psyche Energy can also be filled inside my body, however, due to it being a higher energy, the capacity of my body is low.

Since my pathways will now run in the same line, I will collectively call them as simply my pathway.

"Such a breathtaking transformation. Why is that pathway so cool?"

"…"

"…"

Among the three spectators, only Kazeyoshi commented. Yuko and Yumiko were staring at me, speechless but I could see the awe and adoration from their eyes.

Well, it hasn\'t ended yet.

As soon as my Transformation was formed, another change soon followed.

Turning my body back to its original appearance, more Energy Stone hills turned into a flood of Flux Energy as it swirled and absorbed by my body till the last wisp.

A few seconds later, a small dot appeared above my head.

Through that single dot, the condensed Flux Energy swirled with it and became the material for its expansion and formation. The dot then slowly took form and became a sphere and from a sphere, it expanded further and became a hovering Halo above my head.

When it reached a certain size it then moved from horizontally hovering above my head to vertically hovering at the back of my head.

After it formed, my Augmented Skills appeared inside my mind as if they\'re there to have me pick one of them to fuse with the Halo.

However, before I could pick one, the Orb of Concealment materialized from inside the Necklace.

It then slowly floated as it absorbed more Flux Energy that was exuding from me.

When the Orb finally got its fill, my Augmented Skill, Energy Phantom shined brilliantly before it materialized in front of me in the form of a Beastskin Scroll made from Energy.

The Orb of Concealment then exudes the Aura of Concealment contained in it and instantly enveloped the Beastskin Scroll before the scroll floated and fused with the Halo behind me.

The Orb of Concealment then went back to its original state. I checked it and the 20-minute cooldown started counting down. As to what has happened, I don\'t know. Did it enhance my Halo with the Aura of Concealment?

[Advanced to 1st Stage Saint Realm]

[A Halo has been created]

[Halo Skill: Phantasmic Doppelganger]

[Phantasmic Doppelgangers: Create a maximum of 3 Clones which you can control at will at any given time. Upon creation, the three clones will be formed and dispersed from your original location while your real body will be concealed for a minute or if you choose to reveal yourself. The Clones will have 20% of the real body\'s stats and can move by themselves or by your order. Additionally, you can interchange with any of your clones within the duration. Generation Cost: 100 units of Level 1 Energy per clone. Duration: 1 minute]

Like my Energy Incarnate Transformation, the Halo Skill was already named.

Alright. It\'s already fed up by my naming sense. I get that, I won\'t try to name a skill again, okay?

Well, it really sounds better than what I will probably think of if I was given the chance to name it.

After reading that skill description again, it not only got another purpose, it was upgraded to a whole new level. I don\'t know if other Halo Skills were like this, most likely not.

Due to the Orb of Concealment, it became incredibly more useful than before. Three clones which can fight by themselves and I can interchange between them? Even if it needed 500 units per clone I will still use this. I\'ll just have to inhale more Flux Energy after using that.

Haa… If I had this before sparring with Raiden, I have the possibility to win against him. I\'m sensitive to energy so if he triggers his Temporal Acceleration, I will notice it and can interchange with my clone to get away from him. Because of the blunder that I made back then, I became unable to move away from him when he activated his unique ability.

Now that I\'m done with the two, it\'s now time for the System to upgrade itself.

Unlike what happened with Yuko\'s breakthrough. I only needed to dissolve the last of the Energy Stones I prepared to push it to the next tier.

Once I filled the necessary Flux Energy, the system notification rang out continuously inside my mind.
