The Ultimate Support Character

Chapter 541 Assimilating The Chaosworld



Just like what I suggested to the Chaotic Will, I tried using World Assimilation to him even if he\'s still against it.

And as expected, it failed. I needed its consent after all.

That\'s why while my Companions and the dragon couple returned to the Kingfisher along with the haul of Chaotic Energy we gathered in this particular Chaosworld, I stayed behind for a few days to convince it.

It\'s a shot to the moon, true. But if I was right then even if I wasn\'t the first one who thought of lulling a Chaosworld among every Source Energy Beings or particularly, Divinities, I would be the first one among those below Divinities.

But that\'s as long as it worked. Whether I would be successful or not still depended on it.

Consulting the World\'s Wills connected to me actually hadn\'t yielded any viable answer. They\'re all locked in their own world, what would they know? Even the World\'s Will on Earth had no idea about it.

Although I already got Illiana\'s answer which was relayed by Remilia, pinpointing Alwyn\'s location still needed time.

Remilia would be using her status to check about the dubious moves made by the tribes under Zaraya and the other two. But she also had to be careful unless her cover would be blown.

Until I hear from her again, our destination was truly just to visit a Chaosworld and raise our prowess while investigating the Overworld Serpent that\'s targeting Earth.

"You lowly Source Energy being! Why will I follow you?!"

Two days later, the Chaotic Will still had the same tone. With the Chaosworld devoid of Space Oddities, it\'s actually as weak as a Rank 1 Transcendent now.

I even located its Chaotic Energy Core. The counterpart of the Source Energy Core. If I took that, this Small Chaosworld would crumble.

As for its use... it could be juiced for more Chaotic Energy. It could also be a weapon to throw inside a Source Energy World, letting it proliferate and corrupt the Source Energy and its denizens residing in it.

Naturally, the World\'s Will could purify it but it would take time and if it\'s slow enough, it could even damage its Source Energy Core.

Nonetheless, it\'s not in my plan to take it. Although this Small Chaosworld was away from where Earth was located, it\'s not that far and it could be a training ground for Earthlings, or the Heroes and Transcendents we left behind.

Even if we already clean the Space Oddities in here, it only needed time to give birth for more of it considering the outer space was actually filled with Chaotic Energy.

That\'s also one of the reasons they grow, not just for a Chaosworld but also for a Natural Source Energy World.

Producing Transcendents could only be considered a shortcut. The Chaotic Energy existing outside their atmosphere was slowly being drawn and purified by their Source Energy Core.

And that\'s also why Transcendent Worlds and above would move to higher zones because the Chaotic Energy were denser on that part.

With Earth placed somewhere at the outermost layer of the Known Universe wherein Chaotic Energy was considered scarce, even if its Source Energy returned, the growth from purifying Chaotic Energy was at a snail\'s pace.

"To broaden your horizon? Tell me, how long since this Chaosworld has formed?"

"I... This one has no idea! This one has no concept of time!"

"I see. I forgot that you could also be considered an infant. You\'re too weak for a Chaotic Will after all." I shook my head and tried to discourage it.

"You\'re being rude once more! This one is a Will born of destruction. I ought to destroy you rather than converse to you like this!" The Chaotic Will roared like a small puppy once more even though it looked like an insect

"Yeah, right. You already tried destroying me. You can\'t, right?"

Even if I stood still in front of it, My Source Energy was too abundant that the corruption it caused was being purified automatically.

I\'m basically an immortal in this Small Chaosworld.

[Master, why do you still waste time with this guy? Let\'s go and look for another Chaosworld. Or better yet, an invasive world to siphon their Core!]

At this point, the Incarnation of the World\'s Will from the World of System residing in my system appeared at my side, taking on the form of a small fairy-like boy.

"Destroy!" The Chaotic Will\'s incarnation that was like a tiny beetle immediately roared upon seeing it. Its will of destruction was truly strong, huh?

[Whoa! Master! I\'ll devour this guy!] The Incarnation flapped its little wings as it tried to take a boxing stance and threw jabs in the direction of the Chaotic Will.

Watching the two incarnations that could be considered opposite of each other antagonizing each other like this, an idea popped inside my head.

"Oi. Should I still call you The World? Anyway, you\'re responsible for going through everything registered in my system, can World Assimilation work on this guy? Or can it reside inside my system as well?"

[That bug is impossible to reside in your system! Your system is a Source Energy Pathway! That bug will end up corrupting it and in time, your System-type Pathway will be erased.]

That\'s true. Chaotic Energy can be likened to the merged Source Energy types. Individual Source Energy type would be at a disadvantage against it. Hence, it explained why staying in outer space was draining Source Energy. Not only one cannot absorb it naturally, but it\'s also slowly corrupting one\'s Source Energy.

"Can\'t you protect yourself?"

[The system is bound to you, master. If you allow it to reside in it, considering it\'s close to a Chaotic Energy being and your Pathway is just a completed Mortal Pathway, it will eventually lose and worse, all your other Pathways will be corrupted as well.]

I see. That can also explain why only Divinities can possibly have the ability to dabble in Chaotic Energy. Because Sage Realm and below with un-merged Source Energy types are still inferior compared to Chaotic Energy.

It looks like I am on the right path with my theory.

"I see. You\'re right. What about my Adaptability?"

It\'s what I awakened inside the Pocket Dimension. Thinking it\'s a Psyche-type Pathway\'s Awakened Ability. But in truth, it\'s the essence of my identity as a former Divinity. Energy Control is my true Awakened Ability.

On the same note, Yuko, Yumiko, Hikari and the other Heroes\' awakened ability inside the Pocket Dimension isn\'t their true Psyche-type Pathway\'s ability. No wonder they can still awaken a new ability when they adapted and assimilated a Psyche-type Source Energy as well as tread on its Pathway.

Those abilities they awakened from the Pocket Dimension were abilities the World\'s Will of Earth inserted to them from the pool of abilities it extracted from my poor victims... it just so happened that it ended up influencing what they will awaken from a Psyche-type Pathway.

[... Although it\'s considered part of master\'s Psyche-type Pathway... It\'s the amalgamation of your previous life\'s attainment. I don\'t understand everything about it unlike your other Pathways or the Skills generated from your Psyche-type Pathway.]

"That\'s it! Worldy number two! You\'re great. You just confirmed to me that my Adaptability will be able to do something."

[Eh? Master! I don\'t like that name! Call me Tem!]

"So, you removed Sys from System? There\'s no doubt, you\'re my creation."

Our naming sense sucks.

In any case, with this Incarnation confirming some of my theories, I lifted my head and addressed the real Chaotic Will.

"Chaotic Will! Allow me to assimilate you! Through me, I can let you grow stronger!" I shouted above but the one who replied was the tiny bug beside me.

"You\'re persistent Source Energy being! If you can truly do that, then do it!"

Whether it found it tiresome arguing with me or it was convinced after hearing my conversation with Tem, I had no idea.

However, as soon as it said that, I felt something clicked inside me.

Although there\'s no notification from the system, I instantly stood up as a storm of Chaotic Energy suddenly formed around me. I felt a new Vessel forming inside me. It\'s actually separate from the Invisible Vessel containing Source Energy. It\'s another Energy Vessel being born from my Adaptability.

Following that, the tiny bug Chaotic Willl Incarnation beside me suddenly glowed in dark chaotic light and flew right inside my body, settling itself in that new Vessel.

Before I knew it, the surrounding storm of Chaotic Energy started to be absorbed by my body, filling up that new Chaotic Energy Vessel.

[M-master... What did you do?!]

"As you can see, I assimilated this Small Chaosworld." I grinned as I stretched out my hand and channeled the Chaotic Energy stored inside my body.

From how it appeared, it\'s darker than Dark Energy from the Dark World. Its darkness is more sinister as if it could devour anything on its path.

Bringing up my status page from my system, my eyes naturally searched for one particular line.

And as soon as I caught sight of it, a grin naturally appeared on my face.

[Level 3 Adaptability (1%)]
