Chapter 563 A Pity

"ROAR!"

Emerging first from the Kingfisher as it entered the world's atmosphere, Ezyn's real form of an azure dragon soared through the skies as he menacingly stared down at the nearest Transcendent who bravely put himself in front.

"Die!" The Transcendent shouted as his Pathway and Source Energy revolved and manifested an ability, aiming to maim the dragon.

Although looking imposing just by his sheer size, a Spirit Beast like him wasn't that rare. For some Transcendents who already visited other worlds or met other Transcendents from another world, at least.

Not every world was dominated by humanoid variants, after all. There were worlds where the dominant race were beasts who, more often than not, also had a human transformation. Nonetheless, not being intimidated by him doesn't mean the Transcendent facing him off was at the same level.

Ezyn's wingspan spread open and his Spirit Ocean submerged the Transcendent.

The Transcendent who looked like a native of this world shuddered visibly before biting his lip as his own domain spread open to counter Ezyn's.

In that way, their fierce battle raged on. And while no winner has been decided instantly, my Companions started emerging from the Kingfisher one by one.

The girls looked at me and smiled as they grouped up in two or three before facing the other Transcendents that flew up and stared at them with abject hostility.

Well, in this case, we're the invaders and they're the defenders. Being this their territory, all of them had sinister smiles on their lips as though they already won.

Alas… With my protection, against the restricting nature of the World's Will's authority, none of my Companions became inconvenienced despite floating under a hostile sky.

"Yuko, Sofiel and Irja… Lead everyone. I will be watching your back."

"Yumiko. Don't use your Spirit Channeling yet, this is the best moment for you to hone your expertise on your other Pathways. Pick the one you're currently assimilating…"

As I finished instructing my Companions and received their acknowledgments, it became my turn to get ready.

Well, I actually didn't need to. The only threats to them would be the Rank 3 Transcendents from the Overworld Serpent. And those boastful idiots who could only lord over a Mortal World wouldn't move right away. Moreover, they had already scanned us and found no Rank 3 Transcendents, they'd be more complacent and it's definitely to our advantage.

"Ezyn…" The protected Yse muttered as she watched her husband fight against a Transcendent. What could be seen in her eyes was hope, determination and worry over her beloved.

Having finished pinpointing the location of the Source Energy Core, the silver-haired woman closed her eyes and left the protection of my Energy Control as she also transformed into her real form; a silver dragon that's a little bit smaller in size than Ezyn.

Her Spirit Domain instantly swelled open and took the form of a raging ocean stream as it rushed towards Ezyn's opponent, further drowning the Transcendent in their combined Spirit Ocean.

Even if the Transcendent funneled all his Source Energy to stoke the fire of his seemingly ever-burning domain to evaporate the water-like form of the couple's Domain, it would never be enough.

Because Yse and Ezyn were already added to my Support List, their strength wasn't just that of an ordinary Rank 1 Transcendent, they're already past the threshold of a Rank 2 Transcendent which gave them the qualification to join us in this journey.

That's why… the poor Transcendent would fail to cope against the two of them, no matter how much this world boosts his prowess or whatever advantage he had on his hand.

By the time Yse floated side by side with her husband, the poor Transcendent was already keen on retreating just to survive their onslaught.

Unfortunately for him, our goal in this world is… destruction.

Yse and Ezyn worked in tandem, preventing him from retreating and in turn, sending him to wherever the hell is in this world.

"Nooo!"

The red-skinned Transcendent's indignant screams echoed across the reddish sky, marking himself as the first one to fall against us.

"What are you doing?!"

While I watched my Companions begin squaring off against the Transcendents residing in this world – be it the denizens or the ones from the organization – the thunderous roar of the World's Will rang in my ears.

He's furious, alright.

But that's to be expected.

I raised my head and gazed before the rumbling skies. I could see the Space Vessels that had just left turning around. And amidst the furious roars of thunder, a being made of pure Level 1 Source Energy began coalescing to an Energy Incarnation.

Obviously, that's none other than this World of Inferno's World's Will.

Taking an almost the same appearance as its denizen, red-skinned and at least two meters in height, the World's Will looked rather imposing with the swirling Source Energy that exuded from its created body.

And after staring at me for a second, the Incarnation furiously charged against me. Its reddened hands glowed brightly as though they were eternally burning.

Behind it, something like an illusory manifestation of erupting volcanoes and a golden rain of smoldered lava.

Judging from the intensity of its Energy Control, I could be certain that the World's Will let this Incarnation wield the full authority of being the manager of this world.

I could feel some sort of pressure from it, after all.

However, that's all. It's only slight pressure. It's not even enough to compel me to use a Sword Skill or any other skills from my four Mortal Pathways and one Transcendent Pathway.

There's no need to guess. It marked me as the greatest threat among us.

It even rescinded its restricting aura to solely focus on dealing with me.

"Your kind is not welcome in this world. Begone!" The Incarnation's gnarly fury-filled voice echoed across the erupting sky.

"Is that so?" I nonchalantly replied before a taunting smirk fell upon my lips.

I spread my Transcendent Senses and marked the Rank 3 Transcendents. There are at least ten of them here. More than three times the number of the Rank 3 Transcendents that we dealt with on Earth.

"Poor world. You seemed to have been neglected by your creator. Going under an organization that can crush you anytime. Look at what happened. Only a few benefited while most of your denizens became resources that they can mine almost ceaselessly. Is this what you truly want? As a World's Will… answer me."

Stretching my arms open, Flux Energy instantly flooded my front, blocking the charging World's Will Incarnation.

No matter how much it waved its arm to break the Energy Shield born from my Flux Energy, it couldn't move forward a step, much less an inch.

"Silence! You're an ignorant Source Energy being of another world. You'll never know the sacrifices we have to make to progress!"

The World's Will Incarnation roared once more as the Source Energy being emitted by him intensified. But that only allowed it to make a dent in the pure Flux Energy Shield blocking it from reaching me.

"That's true. However, it's a pity. Had the circumstances changed… I'd be willing to adopt and develop you." I said as I shook my head while staring down at the World's Will Incarnation.

Waving my hand in front of the World's Will, I channeled a huge influx of my Level 3 Flux Energy and transformed it into a gigantic hand that easily slapped him away.

By only exercising my Energy Control, I could now swat away a rebelling World's Will like this.

How refreshing to have my Energy Control grow back to this extent.
