Chapter 208: Elemental Supreme Fleur (2/2)

After a round of teasing from Fleur, Arland gave up retorting and ran back to his seat. Fleur also got her fun which was evident by her smile. However, her face still has that gentleness as if what she did was just a normal occurrence to her. She followed Arland and sat on the empty seat.

Once the two settled down, two pairs of eyes focused on me. It's like going into a job interview but surely, they wouldn't grill me with those questions, right?

These two were still stronger than me at the moment. Are they Rank 2 Transcendents? But if that's the case, their enemy Transcendents will be at the same level or higher and I should've felt it.

They'll become my allies so... I'll know about their strength sooner or later.

”So. Daisuke, huh? You said you're still not done in completing your Mortal Pathway?”

”That should be the case. I'm still a long way from it. In this World's terms, I'm still at the 4th Elemental Condensing Realm.”

Though I wouldn't explicitly state that I have 5 different Mortal Pathways, these two would figure it out when I asked them about Aether and Void.

”No wonder. Hikari and Fleur's disciple is one thing but you're more of a freak than both of them.”

Arland sighed. I don't know what's happening to that girl and the 5 with her. I guess, they're continuing their rest, eh? And that disciple is most probably the 2nd Hero from the Elementals.

”Ah. That's also why I'm here. She summoned me through a linked skill from me. I will push her to Transcendence soon. Letting her become one of us will surely bolster this world's strength and if you have students at 4th or 5th Stage of Elemental Fusing Realm, I'm going to help them as well.”

Helping those stuck at their bottleneck. There are only a few days from the expected widening of the Portal and I don't know how many Dark World Transcendents will descend. So this few days before that happened, that's what I planned to do here.

”And how will you do that?”

Fleur expressed her doubt but there's still a hint of excitement from her eyes.

”Simple. By letting them fight my clones until they drained themselves and I'll bathe them in this.”

Four clones instantly materialize beside me. Without Energy Amplification nor making use of my Energy Incarnate form, these clones will only have 90+ Power Level. Late-stage Rank 5 Mortals.

After that, I waved my arm and made use of my energy control before activating the skill which I invented back during Yuko's Transcendence.

The Energy Zone.

Past the roof of this stone room, a dense cloud of Elemental Energy gathered.

Due to my increased stats, the size grew bigger and the focus I needed to pour on controlling it lessened. I don't need to be stuck in place anymore to maintain it.

When the two felt that, Arland controlled this structure of his and removed the roof. As soon as he did that, the dense amount of Energy flooded inside the room and created a special zone which engulfed the whole room.

It looked like a ray of sunlight bathing us three. When the two of them felt it, they became a huge drain as they crazily absorbed the Elemental Energy circling around them.

Arland stood up and raised his staff, when the green gemstone glowed, the room we were in expanded and more dirt and rocks were generated. He's hungrily absorbing the Elemental Energy while also using it to remodel this room. He's probably trying if his energy will be used up first or the zone will completely beat him by filling up the missing Energy that he was using to rebuild this room into something luxurious like a castle.

I maintained the Energy Zone and increased the intensity at which the Elemental Energy would gather and shower them.

Still, even with this, it wouldn't beat my own Energy Absorption. But for them, it's more than enough to feel like they have unlimited energy.

Fleur also stood up and waved the wooden staff on her hand. Those staves probably have the same effect as a Metagen. It's increasing their energy output. However, Metagen was still more advanced.

From Fleur's body, a huge sphere of water was instantly generated which engulfed the whole room, polishing the crude design Arland was using.

After 5 minutes, the simple room of dirt and rock expanded and became a luxurious castle in the sky.

”… I admit. This will work.”

Arland settled back to his seat and gave his affirmation.

”Indeed. Your appearance this time spells the advent of the two races' rising up from constant defeat.”

Fleur added, the wave of Water Elemental Energy dispersed and showered the sky which created a rainbow above the newly built castle.

”No. You two should prepare yourselves as well. In a few days, Transcendents like us will not be as rare anymore.”

I warned them. It's great to have renewed hope but yeah, those who will descend are still just a stronger grunt. When the time comes to face the Great Ones of the Dark World, will we be able to resist them?
