The Ultimate Support Character

After spending 3 hours inside the Library, I\'ve already skimmed through most of the books stored inside. From History to Geography to Theories about Spells and Elements.

There\'s also no books about Aether or Void save for one which is titled \'What is Aether and Void?\'. It\'s a book written by an old Elemental Fusing Realm who dabbled on his research about the two Incomprehensible Elements.

According to the book, Aether and Void might be totally nonexistent or it could only be perceived under special conditions. And if it\'s the latter, it mentioned that Aether could probably be perceived if someone\'s affinity to the 4 Natural Elements and 2 Special Elements reached a certain threshold.

The book called the Aether as the essence of everything and that it exists among everything in the world. Be it living or non-living things.

Afterwards, the book also called the Void as the opposite of Aether, the essence of nothingness. It said that it could only be found when the 4 Natural Elements and 2 Special Elements were nonexistent on a certain place.

I\'m sure, someone will wonder how did they know that there\'s Aether and Void variation if they couldn\'t comprehend it.

The book\'s words have its merit but for most, the two elements are still Incomprehensible. However, it\'s not the same for me. Some of the book\'s contents were correct.

According to the knowledge about the two that I managed to absorb, Aether and Void are really opposite of each other. If you arrange the 8 variations of the Elemental Energy, the Aether is placed at the top with the Void at the bottom. Sandwiched between the two are the 4 Natural and 2 Special Elements.

Aether is the combination of the six other variations while Void is when the six other variations dissolved to nothingness.

When I gathered a sphere of Elemental Energy in my hands, only the 6 variations could be extracted from it. When I controlled that sphere of energy and mixed the 6, the sphere of energy became silvery-white as it glowed in higher intensity than when it\'s just a balled-up form of Elemental Energy from the surroundings.

How should I say it? Aether is the purest form of Elemental Energy. It can be broken down into 6 Elements. While the Void is also a purified form of Elemental Energy just that, the 6 Elements have to be dissolved to give birth to that element. It will only appear within the absence of the 6 Elements.

In essence, it\'s correct to say that the two Elements were nonexistent or incomprehensible for most people especially for the Elementals because they are fixed to only one Element.

A Human can perceive Aether and Void if they awakened each of the 6 Elements with their 1 Main Elemental Core and 5 Secondary Cores and it might be more apparent when they reached the 5th Stage of Elemental Fusing Realm and even more so after becoming a Transcendent.

And with that. I found the reason why I got the two Incomprehensible Elements as my Main Element. It\'s because of my Adaptability which is the higher form of Energy Control.

There were extremely rare cases where someone was born with either Aether or Void Main Elemental Core throughout the history of this world. According to the History books but none really stood out or their legend has been buried by changing times.

Now that I was enlightened about my main Element. I finally decided to meet the World\'s Will.

I hurried back to the office provided for me and created an Energy Screen that would block any interference outside. After preparing for more security, I activated the temporary skill that was generated.

Consciousness Travel.

-

-

"Welcome."

A woman\'s serene voice registered in my mind before my vision even cleared up.

Like always, since it\'s only my consciousness, the sensing organs don\'t matter. Everything that I will experience here will be processed by my consciousness.

What appeared before me is a picturesque scene of a setting sun on a white sand beach.

Unlike the World\'s Will of the previous two worlds, the World\'s Will here takes up a physical form. A slim silver-haired woman wearing a silver silk robe could be seen standing from a distance. Since her back was turned to the setting sun, her face couldn\'t be seen clearly.

However, my consciousness instantly knew that she is the World\'s Will.

"I\'m sorry if I postponed your first request."

I issued an apology and observed the place. I guess the sentience of this World\'s Will was higher than the others like her.

When I responded, she started to walk over to where I am. With the sun still on her back and the breeze making her silver hair flutter, she looked saintly.

"Don\'t be. I was aware of your purpose and that you would come to this world. I was watching her."

"I see. You\'re watching... What if I didn\'t come, would you only watch their group be butchered by the very enemies trying to take over this world?"

A World\'s Will is just a will. They can become sentient like this but they\'re always calculating about everything. Maybe they can make exceptions but if she deemed it unnecessary to help, that\'s what she will do.

"I\'m not omnipotent. I can punish my denizens but not those invaders. I will, of course, save one of the \'Helpers\', however, I can only do so in a limited capacity."

Limited capacity... Well, at least she deemed it necessary to save Hikari.

"What about the traitors of this world?"

I\'ve already asked this to the World\'s Will of the World of Meta. I\'m just trying to see if they have the same answer.

"I can\'t do anything about Transcendents like you especially if they were taught a method to evade my eye after allying themselves to the invaders. All I can do is to monitor the movement of those connected to them. I can let them suffer misfortune but I can\'t do it all the time."

As I thought. It\'s the same. A World\'s Will is just a manager of a world. It has the ability to send an Incarnation that can be as strong as a Transcendent, however, it\'s not something it can use easily.

It also didn\'t have that much of an ability to block a Transcendent from a higher world.

At every Mortal World, during the advent of the invasion, the Portal made by the Dark World easily breached the Barrier made by the various World\'s Wills. According to the World\'s Will of the World of Meta, it was the Great Ones who\'s responsible for creating the opened Portals. A normal Transcendent couldn\'t do that. Just like how that Great One Zaraya passed the Mortals of the Dark World a method to send in energy clones that could possess an Earthling.

The Anzeans\' World is on the same level as the World of Meta and they didn\'t come from a Portal. Maybe the Transcendents of the Anzeans met the World\'s Will. Who knows what actually happened back when the Anzeans first arrived? Did they gain permission from the World\'s Will or their arrival was ignored by it?

When I asked it about that time, it didn\'t provide an answer.

"I see. I guess that\'s enough. What about their identity? Are they..."

…the races that disappeared? The Luxians and the Noxians.

"They\'re the Transcendents of the Noxians. Arland and Fleur knew about it. You probably haven\'t gained their full trust yet. As for the Luxians..."

I am aware that they still haven\'t fully trusted me yet. Maybe they will only do so after seeing some result to what I bragged about. Making Hikari and the other Elemental Fusing Realm reaches the threshold to call upon the Door of Transcendence.

"The Luxians aren\'t part of it? Do they actually disappear?"

"No. They isolated themselves somewhere and hid their whereabouts to the other races."

This was the kind of information that wasn\'t written on any books. Being the one who oversees the world. She\'s aware where the Luxians isolated themselves and their reason. Same for the Noxians who probably completely sided to the Dark World by now.

"Why do they need to isolate themselves? Are they not being attacked or approached by the enemies?"

"It\'s their own choice. You can ask them."

"I see. Does that mean they\'ll show up soon?"

"Perhaps. Let\'s move on. Your Pathways and your Main Elemental Core are what really made me call upon your presence."

"Right. That\'s also what I want to clarify. As you already guessed. I\'m the same as Hikari and the other one. And this is my ability."

After I said that, I tried controlling my surroundings. The sunset view behind her was split into half. The right side is a night sky while the left side is a day sky.

When the World\'s Will felt that, she turned around and her body shook.

"Your control is too dangerously high..."

"I know. But I am not your enemy and I don\'t want to wrest away your control. It\'s still not on par with your control, right?"

I know it myself. Even with my absurd Energy Control thanks to Advanced Energy Control and Adaptability, it\'s still far from the World\'s Will.

"Yes. That\'s only 1/256 of my total control... But still. In normal circumstances, I would\'ve kicked you out as soon as you showed me this."

The World\'s Will nodded before lifting her hand upwards.

As if she was showing off, she unleashed a small part of her Energy Control. As the World\'s Will, no one will be on par with her. And since she\'s just a representation of the World\'s Will, she didn\'t possess the Elemental Pathway. In fact, she can bypass it and act like a Transcendent.

Soon enough, the unrealistic view behind her which I created and the white sand beach shattered before being replaced by new scenery, atop a mountain peak which oversees the wide land below.
