The Ultimate Support Character

Chapter 490 Completion



Along with the help of the Heroes and the two girls who ended up entering the interconnected Full Immersion Chambers who tested the game for me, the Pathways Online or 'Pathways' only was smoothly completed.

Even with the abundance of materials pooled around the United Alliance of the World of Meta, it would need a week to mass-produce a million units of Full Immersion Chambers that would be distributed all across the globe by the company, Levatus.

Naturally, that amount was already enough to kickstart the world. However, with a population of more than 7 billion, the production would continue until the Full Immersion Chamber wouldn't be needed anymore.

Later that day, I brought the two girls with me and Hikari as a tag-along as we went over to one of the old fossils that were heading the multi-billion dollar company.

"Sir Daisuke, I am expecting you. Also you too, Miss Yuko and Yumiko. Err…And Miss Hikari."

Greeting us as soon as we appeared in his own office, Polaris, the blonde Rank 4 Transcendent seemed as if he's scared of slighting me.

The money used for creating the company was his so we naturally gave him the responsibility to oversee this plan.

Despite being a Rank 4 Transcendent, I don't feel any pressure from him and with that hint of fright he showed earlier, he's probably wary of what I would become in the future. Besides, I could restrain him using the Authority of the World's Will.

"Polaris, you can start selling the units after you finish setting up the relay points for the interconnection of every Full Immersion Chamber. I already completed the whole game. Since it was syncing on every Chamber, the units you have stored could now be used to test it. If you find something that needs polishing in terms of its gameplay, here's the unit with the Administration Access."

I produced a small storage ring which we looted from the Transcendents we captured and passed it onto him. Inside it was the Full Immersion Chamber I used on creating the game.

I already did my part on creating it and I was sure that the game was still somewhat rough and bare-bones at the moment but I had no time to tend to it anymore.

Well, the ones who told me that it's still rough and confusing were the Heroes as well as Yuko and Yumiko.

When they tested the game, most of them died against the weakest mobs.

And that included my two Companions.

Well, I sent them to different parts of the virtual world and those unlucky ended up being surrounded by monsters. Moreover, all of them were restricted to Rank 1 Mortal.

Due to that, their Unique Abilities were locked behind the level up to Rank 2 Mortal.

Among all of them, only Hikari got the grasp and fundamentals of the game.

Because of the accelerated time, all of them spent a day inside that virtual world.

Hikari, who began in a village surrounded by Orc-like intelligent races, rallied the villagers to join her cause.

Naturally, for the realism of the game, even those NPC's could level up.

With all of them picking up their weapons, the Orc Bandit Camp near that village was conquered by her.

By doing the same thing over and over, she managed to liberate a territory the size of a small city in less than a day. The container mimicking a Mortal's Body underwent two breakthroughs and reached Rank 3 Mortal.

Before ejecting herself from that game, Hikari became the Hero of that small territory that was riddled by those orcs.

Perhaps if not for me telling her to stop playing, she would continue playing it until she created her own kingdom.

As for Yuko and Yumiko, they spent their time travelling and talking to the villagers or any other NPC they set their eyes on. They knew it was all a simulation but they became immersed with the story and lore spread out across the game world.

I was also itching to play it but I got too immersed in filling every edge of the map with something the Earthlings would find interest in.

Well, I set something that would stop them from trying to live in it. The game will not be playable for 24 hours straight.

Letting them indulge in that kind of fantasy wasn't my goal after all.

They'll be getting their own real-life adventure soon enough when the Earth begins moving outside this outskirt of the Universe.

With worlds we would be able to pass by, World Traveling will become a norm by then.

"I understand. I will be inducting the alpha test phase for this…" Polaris trailed his voice as he looked towards me.

"Pathways. Just call the game like that. I will be expecting the world to begin treading their Mortal Pathways soon."

After saying that, I stood up and the three girls followed me into the Portal I created.

"Dai-kun, what do you think of Hikari?"

As soon as we arrived back in Japan and specifically to our own classroom which I input to be the destination of the Portal, Yuko once again brought up that topic.

When I turned around, Yumiko was also waiting and the girl in question was finding it hard to look at me.

Well, that's as I expected. Despite her playful nature of calling me as her master, she would take this matter they brought up carefully.

"Obviously, I like this wacky disciple of mine. Even though she's only leeching off my skills, I still taught her for a bit. However, Hikari, how's Boris?"

"Eh? Why are you bringing him up, Daisuke?" Yumiko blurted out that question.

Before leaving the World of Elements and back to this world. I noticed the two's closeness. It's more or less the same as to how Kazeyoshi is to Amry.

Of course, Hikari isn't a tsundere like Amry. The way they got along was like comrade in arms.

They had their fair share of life and death battles together against the Noxians and the Dark World.

"He… He's only a friend, master. Besides, he has someone from the Elementals." Hikari smiled bitterly as she gave that answer.

"That's fine, Hikari. I knew you two weren't destined together." Yuko interjected then winked at me.

That wink… That only meant one thing… she's telling me that Hikari was among my Companions in that vision of hers…

I value her Skillmaster ability but I guess it's still up for this girl if she wants to come with us.

With the memories of my past life returned to me… my mind was now completely focused on what to do next for us to reach Divinity.

Taking in more Companions will be just out of convenience for now since I wasn't really looking for more. But if she really did decide to do that, I was aware that like with Lexie, Ophelie, Caila and Noelle, I would begin caring for her the same way as my other Companions.

Two weeks later, on the small island that we already established as our training grounds and a private island just for us, I was sitting while being surrounded by my Companions as we were currently watching the sparring between Dannae and Jayna.

Sparring against each other became part of the training we were doing here. Letting the girls fully unleash what they have in their arsenal, I would be able to gauge their strengths and weaknesses.

Besides, there's not only me, Yuko, Sofiel, Leianne and the other girls who were watching would provide their insight.

At the moment, Jayna's colorful vines and her Spirit Ocean swirled around her. Like tentacles that had their own individual minds, they were expertly deflecting every energy gunshot enhanced by Amplification that Dannae was shooting towards her.

After a while, when Dannae's gun overheated, Jayna used that chance to rush towards the girl with her attack-focused vines ready to stab towards the lightgreen-skinned girl.

However, before she could even deliver what she planned, Jayna was met by Dannae's leg. She expertly aimed her kick right against Jayna's flight trajectory.

Obviously, she predicted the danger that Jayna would bring her through her pair of little antennas that were cutely dancing atop her head.

Those pair of antennas were like my Adaptability's danger sensor after all.

Nonetheless, Jayna's reaction was also swift. Using her Black Vines that were packed with thorns and covered with her thick Flux Energy turned Spirit Energy to meet that Dannae's amplified kick, a thunderous explosion of energy ensued at that point of contact.

BOOM!

A few seconds later when the dust settled, the two women could be seen again.

With their eyes meeting each other's gaze Jayna and Dannae instantly moved into close combat.

Punch, kick, energy attacks and any other kinds of Skills they could show, the two relentlessly attacked each other without holding back.

Well, that's because Noelle and I were already standing by to heal them. Moreover, the two's UPL was already closed to each other. Injuring each other was already something nearly impossible.

And despite being both a Rank 2 Transcendent that was holding nothing back, the island remained intact.

With the combined energy of everyone in here, we created a thick Energy Barrier that could protect the island from sinking or collapsing.

This is our island after all. It's a waste to let it be destroyed by their sparring session.

While the two girls were heatedly going all out on their sparring, Yuko who was by my side whispered something, "Dai-kun, father said that the launch of 'Pathways' will happen tomorrow. Also, the Rank 3 Transcendent from the Arania World has been successfully initiated. Father was unable to alter his memory so… he had him Pledge to the World's Will and drink a potent poison."

"I see. We can't miss its launch. And it's time for you to fight another Rank 3 Transcendent. You cannot defeat him before, right? Wanna try it again now that you completed your Mortal Pathway?"
