Chapter 422: Assaulting the Noxian Capital (1/2)
”Lexie, I will be leaving the League to you. If something happened, don't hesitate to use that skill you got from that will let you contact Daisuke once a day. Also if that's not enough, his communication crystal is on you. Everything you tell him will be relayed to me.”
”I understand.” Lexie, as if a habit, saluted to Nysia before immediately putting it down.
After that event of adding her as my Companion, Leianne and the other three returned after tying up the loose ends.
Leianne left everything to her grandfather. Elise relegated Amry and another close subordinate of hers for the management of the Light's Cradle and Eldur. Lunaria bid her farewell to her mother. And Dannae settled the score with her father who immediately rushed to the tower to see her mother, Dianne.
At the moment, we're now standing before the Portal to the World of Elements. Yuko and the others already stepped inside and we're the last who had yet to go.
”And I will send my Support Incarnation to oversee your Transcendent Trials three days later,” I added.
Upon hearing that, Lexie flinched and incredulously stared at me as if I said something she didn't expect.
”Huh? There's no need to. I will pass it!”
”Look at this girl easily forgetting what I said. You're now my Companion. I care for you just as much as I care for Nysia and the others. If it's only up to me, I will not leave you here.”
After I finished saying that, I pulled out more baseball-sized Energy Stones for her use, piling them in front of her.
”You're too illogical, Daisuke.” She looked down at the pile of Energy Stones with a complicated expression on her face.
”We know he is. But his care for us is genuine. You'll understand that soon.”
Before I could even answer, Nysia did it for me.
There's really no need for farewells now. We'll be able to see each other if we wanted to anyway.
After a few more reminders, Nysia and I stepped inside the Portal, leaving Lexie who saluted once more. The League was now in her hands.
Hopefully, the World of Meta continue to prosper now that the outside threats are gone.
But of course, that's just my wishful thinking. Despite being ruled by strength, there would always be rebellious spirits who would bide their time before coming out to disturb the peace of the world. That's how it always is. Nonetheless, it's not like the League or the United Alliance would just sleep their way now that the biggest threat for the world disappeared.

[You entered the World of Elements]
[Received +3 Endurance as World Bonus]
[Will expire upon leaving the world]
Familiar notification welcomed me as soon as my vision returned to normal. Yuko and the other girls were already waiting for a few minutes, hovering atop a decimated mountain and a huge crater.
Upon checking our surroundings, I recognized this place, the former territory of the Luxians.
Being new to this world, all of them were busy taking in the new scenery in their eyes. Among them, those who decided to assimilate the Elemental Energy numbered four. Reinys, Noelle, Leianne and Elise.
Well, I advised them to do that later as we had a set plan to do. That way, we wouldn't stay for a few days here and move onto the next world.
After telling them the trivia about the place we appeared at, I became their guide as we set off to our destination. Thankfully, we wouldn't need to fly for long or call for Fleur to teleport us. Luxian and Noxian Territory were like neighbors of each other. They apparently also had the most conflict before Sofiel scooped Aves and two smaller masses of land up to enter seclusion.
Along the way, the World's Will's voice rang inside my mind, welcoming me back.
It's not like we stopped communicating with each other. Through the Avatar who she often pulled up in that space of hers, she continued learning from me. In the end, I also managed to give her the name I thought up to her delight.
With my horrible naming sense, I came up with a name close to what she is. From World's Will of the World of Elements, I removed everything and only left two syllables behind. Ele.
Although we stopped closing the Dark World Zones after the Portal was closed, her incarnation continued to assault more Zones. Thanks to her sole efforts, the black patch of land that was expanding at the north of the continent was now reduced to one-fourth of its original size.
Moreover, because of the threat imposed by Sofiel and Fleur, the remaining Dark World Transcendents already abandoned those Zones, leaving those behind to the Mortal Ranks stationed there.
After telling me an update about the Dark World Zones, our conversation ended.
Through those Zones she managed to close, Ele's becoming more and more human-like. It's not wrong to say that among all the World's Will I got the chance to interact with, she's the closest one to evolve.

After a few minutes of flying in the direction of the Noxian Capital, I established a connection to my Avatar to check the status of their plan as well as merge with the memory it accumulated.
