The Ultimate Support Character

Chapter 301 Dimensional Passageway



Different from what I experienced when I traveled from Earth to the Otherworld where my vision will be filled by complete whiteness, my sense of sight wasn\'t taken from me. Also, there\'s no such thing as Dimensional Passageway from those Portal Travels to the Otherworlds and vice versa.

My head instantly moved and took in the sight of this place. Everything around me was dark except for the passageway I\'m treading on which is like a lone candle lit in this dark place.

Well, not really treading, my feet were standing on something but I feel like I\'m on a conveyor belt or a travelator as I slowly move through this passageway. Although I tried to move and walk faster to arrive at my destination earlier, there\'s no indication that I\'m really gaining a distance.

If I could put what I felt by being in this place in words, then it will be… My sense of Space and Time isn\'t clear.

Although I did take note of the time I entered, I couldn\'t comprehend how long already passed since I entered the Portal. One minute? One hour? One day? I don\'t know.

However, considering the cooldown of my Dimensional Communication skill was stuck at a few hours and hadn\'t moved ever since I entered the Portal, my System is probably experiencing the same thing. Space and Time are possibly frozen in this place.

I looked around again and this time, I observed the river-like flow of energy beneath my feet. If the time is frozen, how could it still flow like this? Is this normal, I wonder.

Also, I noticed that there were two flows of Energy here. One beneath my feet and one above my head. Dark Energy above, Elemental Energy below.

I tried exercising my Energy Control to gather the two types of energies on top of my palm. However, I found out that my Energy Control is useless here. The two flows of Energy stayed in their course without even a single wisp becoming influenced by my Energy Control.

Apart from the Energy inherent in my body, I couldn\'t move or control the surrounding Dark and Elemental Energy. Even the Elemental Energy that was supposedly I already adapted to just keep on flowing towards my destination whereas the Dark Energy continued its course, flowing towards where I came from.

After who knows how long, I gave up trying to scoop a ball or a handful of Energy from the two. I turned my attention to the other aspects present in me.

Firstly, the Support Expert System. Given that the cooldown for the skills was frozen, I tried activating a System-related Skill to check if the same thing will happen.

Level 2 Wizard Spell: Wind Blades!

Green Wind Blades were normally conjured and shot towards the unknown dark space. But the same thing happened to its cooldown, it\'s frozen.

The Energy I\'ve used was also not getting refilled. My passive Absorption couldn\'t absorb anything after all.

Taking my mind off of the Skills and Abilities, I also noticed that the System hadn\'t produced more notification after those two which told me what I entered and where it would lead me.

I\'m already amazed that despite being produced from a Mortal Pathway, it could recognize this place as well as note that the destination will be a Transcendent World. It being \'Unlisted\' is expected since I\'ve never been to that place yet.

Well, upon these few observations and tests I\'ve done. There were two things that I\'ve concluded. The Space and Time are probably frozen in here as well as I couldn\'t exercise control over the flowing Dark and Elemental Energy.

Now then, I don\'t know how long I will stay here so let\'s review what happened and why I ultimately decided to enter this Portal or Dimensional Passageway.

Clearly, I jumped to the Portal due to how dangerous it will be to face the three Transcendents as well as the newly arrived reinforcements.

Haa… Now that I have a lot of time to think. I concurred that this is truly an absurd and foolish decision on my part. The worst decision I made to date. I should\'ve tried to escape there at my fastest speed and meet up with Fleur, Jayna and the Incarnation. Even if I get injured, I could certainly recover. I\'m quite confident with my survival skills so… there\'s no way a bunch of Rank 1 Transcendents could kill me unless I was caught unaware with an ambush. With my Adaptability serving as a Warning Alarm, there\'s only a very low chance that it will happen.

Also with those three and my Support Skills, it\'s possible to cope against a group of Transcendents.

Truly a foolish decision, eh? I got too influenced by the temptation of entering this world that I hadn\'t thought it clearly before deciding.

There\'s no room for regret now. I\'m already here. I just have to prepare for whatever\'s waiting for me in their world and plan my next course of action.

Currently, I have no concrete plan on what I will do next upon arriving there. It\'s done on impulse or whatever I call it.

For sure, having a Level 2 Adaptability, I will instantly adapt to their Source Energy. However, how will the World\'s Will of that World treat me? Will it see me as a threat and bar my entry or will it ignore my presence given that I\'m just a Rank 1 Transcendent? There\'s also a possibility that it will warn its denizens of my arrival. If what\'s happening to the World of Elements World\'s Will is a process of evolution that will lead to the world leveling up to become a Transcendent World, then I should expect that the World\'s Will there will be more sentient…

I might just be struck to death by it if it ruled me as an intruder and someone not welcome to its world.

Then I should probably jump back into the Portal as soon as I arrive there… No sightseeing and exploration will happen.

Surely, the Portal on that side is the same as the one in the World of Spirit I will be met with whoever\'s in charge of watching the Portal. If I\'m lucky, there should be only one whose strength was unknown but if my unlucky stroke continued, I might face a more dangerous situation than the one I ran off to.

I have to be prepared to jump back in a heartbeat. Even if my Adaptability could react to any danger, I should also trust my own judgement at certain times. Who knows… someone faster than the Adaptability\'s danger recognition ability could appear and catch me without any chance of escaping.

Then that\'s it. Instantly jump back after arriving. I\'m still too weak to even try and infiltrate that world when all I know about it is its name and the one ruling in it. I have to gather more information before even trying to think about it.

Well then, while I\'m here… Let\'s also formulate a plan on what to do after going back to the World of Elements and maybe look for a way to exploit this… unexpected free time.

I organized my thoughts and stopped moving my head to observe the surroundings where there\'s nothing at all.

What should I do first?

As I thought that, my sight naturally dropped down to the thing hanging on my neck. Using my hand, I raised the necklace that I was currently wearing.

It\'s the necklace that I got from Avelin where she used the Orb of Enhancement as the pendant. She gave it to me through the pledge and told me to wear it. For her, as long as it\'s hanging on my neck, it will be like she\'s always here with me. This Orb was what saved her life too many times before my arrival and meeting her.

Also hanging along the Orb is one of the life-saving earrings of Jayna which she gave to me for me to keep. It\'s not the earring which she let me use but the other one that was always on her. And of course, the other one was on her person. She also used it as a pendant on her necklace and removed the automatic activation of its function to not lose it. Her earrings could only shield against Rank 4 Mortal attacks after all. It\'s useless for us now but it contains the memories between us. We got closer together with the pair of earrings as our witness.

Ah. I got a bit sidetracked there… Although it\'s always on me, this is the first time that I got to appreciate the two \'pendants\' from two of my girls.

The Orb of Concealment also has sentimental value to my relationship with Zerina. It\'s something that saved us both. Although I don\'t have anything from the other girls, it\'s not like it will be grounds for having lesser affection for them.

Erin\'s straightforward words and the way she called me Monster clearly made their mark. Nysia is already my wife. Yumiko and Yuko are already recognized by my parents as my girlfriends. Fleur and Sofiel… Well, I also had a fair share of the memory of wooing Fleur. while I had this sort of soft spot towards Sofiel whenever she would call me with that endearment \'darling\'. I may not remember what happened between us, it\'s clear that she\'s special to me. We can just make new memories together.

Well then… I don\'t know how long this transit to the Dark World will last. That\'s why I\'m going to try everything.
