The Ultimate Support Character

As the heat of the battlefield continued to rise, the difference between the Heavenly Lightning Tribe Barbarians and the combined forces of the Corrupted and the Mortal Rank Dark Beastmasters grew apparent.

Originally, the number of the enemies was more than double of the Heavenly Lightning Tribes\' army, but with the difference in quality, one Barbarian, even if surrounded by the five Corrupted Barbarians or beasts, could take down two or three of them before dying. There were also times that he would live through it.

Because of that, it didn\'t take long for them to shave off their numbers.

Nonetheless, the descendant didn\'t really care about the Mortal Ranks anymore. Those Corrupted by the Dark Energy were all destined to die once their lifeforce was depleted after all. There\'s no future for each of them unless they miraculously reach Transcendence which is highly unlikely.

Back then, the Whiteshade Division disseminated the information that I passed them about the Corruption and its danger. However, a good number of them didn\'t believe it, especially those outside the Desolate Plains. They thought the Heavenly Lightning Tribe was just scaring them.

Now what will happen to them is the result of their choice.

With the powered-up King Realm Generals leading all of them, It\'s now safe to leave the Mortal Rank Battlefield to them and they didn\'t require assistance anymore.

"Reinys, how are you three faring? Do you think you can defeat that Transcendent?"

From out of nowhere, Daisuke\'s voice rang inside Reinys\' mind.

Minutes already passed since they started fighting the Beastmaster Transcendent. Daisuke\'s clone already disappeared as well as the enhancements they received from him. Because of that, the previous advantage they had against the Transcendent disappeared, leading for the tables to turn against them.

Even if they\'re all Rank 5 Mortal in total UPL now, just by being subjected to the enemy\'s Domain, the three\'s prowess would be hugely restrained, rendering the enhancements on their bodies obsolete.

With this sudden message from that man who she still couldn\'t decide whether she already likes him or not, she couldn\'t think of an immediate response.

She\'s currently busy activating three Level 4 Wizard Spells at the same time, after all.

Her upgraded system allowed her to simultaneously activate registered Spells. Moreover, she could also enhance it with her own Energy, making her Level 4 Spells possess the strength of a Level 5.

Their enemy, the Beastmaster Transcendent and the Soulbound-beast were already full of cuts and burns on their bodies.

However, those all appeared to be superficial injuries compared to the bruises and wounds being endured by Caila, the acting tank among the trio.

Despite Noelle not neglecting her duty as a support, sending all sorts of Blessings towards her, resisting a full-powered attack by a Transcendent while still being shackled by the realm of a Mortal could be considered suicidal.

Caila\'s enhanced system gave her an increased resistance both in Energy and Physical Attacks. However, it has its limitations and it\'s not as overpowered as Daisuke\'s Quintuple Shields or Support Hero\'s Protection. If she continued to get hit by an attack at the level of a Transcendent, her Mortal Body would undoubtedly collapse on her.

Reinys knew that the three of them needed this kind of experience.

When Yuko became a Transcendent, the gap between them already grew to the extent that they couldn\'t stand and fight alongside her anymore. Yuko was already facing Transcendent enemies while they\'re still having a hard time facing a Rank 5 Mortal.

They\'re called Hero\'s Party Members but as time continues to pass, they\'re gradually being left behind by the Hero.

The desire to continue walking alongside Yuko was one of the reasons why they all rejected the positions being given to them when their world was finally rid of the foreign invaders.

For Reinys, however, another reason was to see the guy who kept on encouraging her, allowing her to stand back up on her feet again. Despite her attitude towards him when he\'s still a lot weaker than her, that guy never looked down on her even if he\'s already so high up that her title as the Princess didn\'t carry any weight anymore.

She knew that she didn\'t really have a chance to become like Yuko or that daughter of the Noble House in his eyes. Nonetheless, she\'s determined to follow along the path they\'re treading on even if it\'s near impossible to close the gap.

"We can do this! You better watch me… No, watch us. Even though you\'re all far ahead, we will catch up to you."

Because she couldn\'t afford to split her meager Energy Control to reply in the same way, Reinys shouted her reply.

For Daisuke who had his overwhelming Energy Control, the method of using energy to enhance any sort of skill, ability or spell before the activation could be easily done. On the other hand, for Reinys who was being restricted by the Pathway with the most restrictions, it\'s a hard feat to emulate it.

Regardless, even if it would undoubtedly put great stress on her body, Reinys was willing to accomplish that to ultimately deal with their Transcendent opponent.

Perhaps if Reinys looked in his direction, she would see him shaking his head but with added admiration to their determination.

The simultaneous Spell that she was about to unleash could surely injure the Transcendent. However, it will not be enough to finish him. Unless her UPL surpassed the current limitation of her Mortal Body, even an offensive Ultimate Skill will not be enough.

"Un. I believe you can do it. You three have already proven yourselves. Allow me to help you end that."

Without waiting for her reply whether she would allow him or not, his signature Energy Explosion Projectiles was already whizzing through the air, homing in on the Transcendent.

In a blink of an eye, six explosions rang out as the projectiles accurately hit the Transcendent and his Soul-bound beast\'s back, affecting the master and pet with three random debuffs.

\'That idiot. We didn\'t ask him for help…\' Although she\'s complaining inwardly, Reinys overly serious expression relaxed as she aimed and unleashed her Spells straight towards the Transcendent and his beast.

On the side, Noelle and Caila assisted her by activating their Ultimate Skills, making sure that the Transcendent would be swallowed by Reinys desperate final attack.

"Job well done." As I watched an enormous explosion engulf the Beastmaster Transcendent the three were fighting, I couldn\'t help but mutter my praise.

Seeing the three women collapsed on the ground after that, I sent a clone to pick them up from the ground and carry them back to the camp to recuperate. They already did their best. Even if that Beastmaster Transcendent lived from that, I already sent my four Pillar Guardians to finish him off.

That\'s one less Transcendent again.

This battle… It\'s time to end it.

Upon deciding that, I immediately sent telepathic messages to both Yuko and Zerina telling them to start. I also winked back at the adorable Avelin as a sign for her to finish off the remaining Beastmaster Transcendent.

Erin was currently up above, showing off her covert tactics by interchanging with her clones and Pillar Guardians, poking her enemies once or twice before leaving the range of their Transcendent Senses.

From where I was, it looked like she was just playing against three Transcendents by herself but with the sweat currently accumulating on her forehead, she\'s consuming a lot of energy by using that tactic.

Well, I also messaged her that if she felt her energy about to be depleted, just blink next to me so that I could use the three Boosts on her to replenish some of her energy instantly.

After that, I turned around and my gaze met the descendant\'s gaze. He\'s firmly gritting his teeth. Perhaps if he exerted more force, it\'s possible for him to grind his teeth to nothingness, turning himself toothless.

Even with his barrier preventing sound waves to travel through, my mouth moved and soundlessly conversed with him by reading the movement of our lips.

"There\'s no escaping now, hurry up and go out of this shell."

I continued to taunt him all the while letting him watch what\'s currently happening behind us.

The first one to fall was the Midsummer King. In the end, Old Man Reol didn\'t even need to use his Crown Skill. Being ganged up by his Pillar Guardians and being restrained by the Old Man\'s Empire, the strongest Corrupted Barbarian fell with four of his limbs torn from his body and a large hole in his chest.

Following that, Raiden finally activated his Temporal Acceleration. In just a second the two Transcendents who were trying to stop him from killing the Mortal Ranks were pummeled down to the ground. They didn\'t have enough time to activate enemy skills because of how fast that one second happened. By fully utilizing his Ability alongside his Physique-type Pathway, only those at the same level or higher in level as him will be able to somehow live to tell the tales.

"What do you think? There\'s no going back home now. Have you noticed? All this time, none of us tried to ask for your names. Do you know why?" Ending that question with a condescending smirk, the descendent appeared to be cursing inside.

And when he\'s trying to form a reply, I put a hand in front to stop him. "No. Stop trying to guess inside that shell of yours, I will tell you the answer. Look up."

As his eyes followed my arm, he clearly saw how Zerina and Yuko effortlessly cut down their opponents.

With the Crown on both of their heads, the two also activated the Ultimate Skills of their respective system leading to that immediate result.

"Did you see it clearly? Because you\'ll be forgotten soon enough, there\'s no point knowing your names anymore."
