Chapter 491: Space Oddities (1/2)

With the days that have passed, among all my Companions only some of them had yet to complete their Mortal Pathway.

There were Dannae, Noelle, Caila and Reinys.

Lexie and Ophelia too since they're away from us. At times, I would send my Incarnation to them or I would visit them personally to see the state of their world.

With the ease of travel thanks to the World Assimilation, going there to see them was like going to a neighboring street. Lexie was always scowling whenever she saw me while Ophelia was becoming less and less formal which was what I wanted from her. Lexie's scowl was understandable as she couldn't wrap her head around the prospect of slowly being drawn to me and as for Ophelia, she began being persuaded by my words as we began to spend time with each other more and more.

I was really looking forward to bringing them with me when we leave but… I would leave that to fate.

As for the others who were eagerly training on the island, they managed to complete their Pathway.

As expected, their Transcendent Pathway was from the Source Energy Type they assimilated, except Yuko and Yumiko. Their Transcendent Pathway turned out to be the Psyche-type.

Yuko's System-type Mortal Pathway or the Hero System was stuck from its completed state.

Nonetheless, the other Pathway's properties she was assimilating in her Psyche-type Pathway which covered her Foresight and Premonition was, as expected, System-type.

The way it was being assimilated was that… Yuko was beginning to see more functions of her Abilities and Skills through the use of a special system interface.

Obviously, it's not just that, because it was like she's redoing her Psyche-type Pathway that she didn't really tread on because of assimilating to Psyche Energy and instantly awakening Foresight, she began exploring her Abilities and now… she's even scarier than before wherein she could predict attacks coming her way.

If she wanted to, she could even take on both Irja and Sofiel alone.

Irja's machine-gun-like Energy Attacks would be having a hard time hitting her and Sofiel who could make use of her Light Elemental Spell, Transformation Skills and Pillars were also being adeptly countered by Yuko.

Nonetheless, she had no way of winning against the two if it comes down to a fight until one side loses.

That's how strong they were now.

As for Yumiko. Because of her Spirit Channeling, she began assimilating the Spirit-type properties as her Transcendent Pathway.

When she completed her Mortal Pathway, the Higher Spirits from a Sage World descended and communicated with her. Some of them were telling her to visit their world to guide her through the more intricate path of Spirit Channeling while some were inquiring of the location of her world.

Nonetheless, she only answered enough to not jeopardize the location of the Earth. Who knows? Maybe someone among them was an enemy.

As for the other girls such as Erin and Avelin who were, when their Glimpse happened, the other Pathway's properties they were going to assimilate were different from each other.

Erin was assimilating Psyche-type while Avelin was assimilating Spirit-type.

Because of their new Pathways and that Transcendent Pathway, the two's combination was slowly becoming deadly. With Avelin playing the role of a tank and Erin as an assassin, I couldn't win against them anymore.

Well, that's the case when I was still stagnating in the middle of the 5th Realm and I wasn't using all of my Domains all at once.

With the Duel that was happening in front of us, Dannae and Jayna should be ill-matched since Dannae hadn't completed her Mortal Pathway yet.

However, to make it happen and to better train her in the use of her Amplification, Jayna proposed that she would only use her Spirit Pathway skills.

”Shouldn't you stop the sparring now, darling? Dannae was already about to lose. She did her best standing up against Jayna who's a genius at Energy Molding.” Sofiel, who was on my other side, asked.

Just like she said, Dannae who was supposed to be the currently weakest among my Companions who followed me here on Earth already proved her mettle against someone sufficiently stronger than her.

Her Ability was somewhat of a support type and it would bloom better with her prepared tools that were Amplified many times over. Most of her skills were also some kind of buff. However, thanks to her two Pathways from the Flux Energy State, she could now become a frontliner like everybody else.

Following Sofiel's words, I stood up and clapped my hands. ”Jayna, Dannae, let's stop for now. We have somewhere to go. All of you, come with me. There's a better opponent waiting for you.”

Upon hearing my voice, not only the two who were fighting against each other, the other spectators who were surrounding me all stood up excitedly.

”Will you let us play that game you made, Daisuke?” the innocent Avelin excitedly asked.
