Chapter 471: Ill-matched

Three distant Earth Locations, three Rank 3 Transcendents from different worlds.

While I was chasing after Nysia and the Transformed Rank 3 Transcendent who already ended up outside the land, I checked the situation of the other two locations.

While I used the communication crystal to connect to all of them, I also used Interdimensional Communication to check on what's happening around them.

Irja alone was facing the Elemental-type Rank 3 Transcendent. Although she could be said to have artificially reached that same stage, she didn't possess the benefits of breaking through to the 3rd Realm of Transcendent Pathway.

For example, the Red Wolf Transformation of the red-skinned Transcendent was brought about by completing the 2nd realm and stepping into the 3rd realm of his Transcendent Pathway.

Because she was only enhanced through the various bonus stats coming from me and her other Pathways, her skills were somewhat lacking to match up against that Wind Elemental Rank 3 Transcendent.

I could only see the glimpse of their fight through what was showing from Avelin's point of view but that Irja, when I talked to her through the crystal, she stubbornly declared that she alone could deal with that Transcendent.

Well, it's not that I don't trust her words, I'm just worried that she might overexert herself.

Either way that's also what's happening to Nysia and Yuko,

My Companions were growing a bit stubborn.

Ah. Not that stubborn to not listen to me but… they all probably wanted to prove to me that my worries were all unfounded and I had to firmly believe in them. And through this new stage of our journey, they're going to show that to me by defeating their opponent.

However, considering their own main Pathways and their enemies Pathways…

I did find that they were somehow ill-matched.

Nysia is a Psyche-type Transcendent and considering her Ability, the Wolf who's now using his advantage in speed to continue retreating, she needed to corner him somewhere to properly subdue it.

Notwithstanding his strength as a Rank 3 Transcendent, Nysia would soon fall into a disadvantage if this dragged on.

Irja is a Spirit-type Transcendent and although she could utilize the Totem Pole I left in her hands to make her barrage of attacks to properly damage the Enemy, that Wind Elemental was just too fast, it's even faster than that Red Wolf.

If that continued, she would also end up falling at a disadvantage.

And lastly, Yuko who hadn't even finished her Mortal Pathway was against a Psyche-type whose ability was still unknown. Although she could use her Foresight to predict what her enemy would do, something she had only seen once might overwhelm her.

Despite the fact that my Avatar was with her, it would be difficult for her to gain an advantage against that kind of enemy.

I have to do something...

I am wielding the Authority of the World's Will but after using Restrict two times, the World's Will of the Worlds connected to me was now nagging at me for using too much of their Source Energy.

Well, except Ele who's expressing concern and asking about what's happening that I needed to pull that much Source Energy.

That girl, if only she's not a World's Will bound to that world, I would probably ask her to be my Companion and bring her to my side.

Ah. In any case, using Restrict again was now out of the option.

Besides, even at this point, I was burning my Energy to the point that even with the Support of the seven Worlds, it's going down. In a few minutes, if I don't close all my Domains and Buff Skills, I would suffer from Energy Depletion.

Well then, let's do what's on my mind and see if this will work.

"Jayna, Elise and Lunaria, how's it going?"

"Daisuke, it's almost done."

Jayna immediately replied.

With the help of my clones and Pillars, the remaining Rank 2 Transcendents were all incapacitated and like the first 14, they're now being sacked and hauled towards the cage I made.

"I'm dismantling their Pillars, this can be used by us, right?"

Perhaps because she had experienced being a ruler in the World of Meta, Elise probably found the value of those Pillars. It's part of a Formation.

Although I wasn't an expert at it during my past life… My Energy Control can enhance a Formation.

"I'm inside their Space Vessels, Daisuke, there's a lot of unknown tools here."

And like Elise, Lunaria was also aware of the value of tools. The World of Meta not only has Powergen and Metagen after all. Those tools that she saw, they're probably the Beacons and Portals they're talking about.

Beacons might be a way to guide their allies towards this world.

And the Portal… it's self-explanatory. However, I doubt Transcendents could pass through that, it also needed time to widen it. At most, they would be able to send their Mortal Ranks to build a fortress and conquer the Mortal Rank natives.

Much like the Invasion of the Dark World. We could use that in the future.

When it's time to… assimilate those Invasive Worlds.

Right. A Sage World can choose to assimilate Invasive Worlds to expand the land and increase the quality of Energy. However, if it absorbed a Natural World… then, it would turn into another Invasive World.

The Nature of different World Categories was just going in circles.

"Try to rest for a while after you're all done. I will be teleporting you to help the others. Elise and Lunaria, take everything they brought with them. Especially their Storage Equipment."

That's the first order of business.

Upon hearing my words, the three acknowledged it.

Afterward, I connected the crystal to the three women that were facing a Rank 3 Transcendent.

"Yuko, Irja and Nysia… You three, I'll have you change your opponent. Also… I'll be changing the locations of your fights. The nearer you are with me the better.

Just hold on for a while.

"Huh? I told you I could do this, Daisuke! But if you really think so… then. Please."

Irja never changes, huh? No wonder I was too fond of her despite her becoming too suspicious of me back in that world.

"If it's what husband thinks, then let's do it. Trusting your judgement was always proven correct"

Well, this wife of mine just trusts me too much. It's a coincidence that I was always right. I told her about that not just once or twice but the Nysia who were fearsome to others was always this soft when it comes to me.

"Understood, Dai-kun. It's hard to utilize my ability against this one. I am supporting what you proposed."

And as always, Yuko also thought about my idea first before giving her own judgement. That's just how it is for us… We're equals.

After gaining their approval, I began focusing on enacting it.

In my mind, I already picked which opponent suited each of them.

Yuko against that Wind Elemental.

Irja against that Red Wolf.

Nysia against that Long-nosed.

And supporting them will be me. We'll be in one area so whoever's put in a difficult situation will be assisted by me.

For now, I could only hope for this to work. We're fighting against the odds here. We needed to properly utilize our abilities to come out on top.
