The Ultimate Support Character

Chapter 158 Informing The Three Heroes



"I must say, what you did was spectacular."

Nysia said after she clung to me as soon as I entered the room she told me where she will be waiting. In here, she was watching what was happening earlier on a screen installed in this room.

"You clinging to me like this is more spectacular. Did that make you happy?"

"Yes! You also noticed it, right?"

I would be blind if I didn\'t notice that. That slip of the tongue wouldn\'t go unnoticed to someone aware of their existence.

"Un. A snake has shown itself voluntarily. In any case, let\'s pretend we didn\'t notice it."

When I taunted them, the place exploded with various reactions from the three groups of delegates.

Those from the Empire expressed their anger like how the Imperial Advisor did, especially those lower rank Pilots. Stomping their feet in irritation.

Those from Eldur, however, when the Sovereign Princess expressed her amusement, no one dared to talk with a different opinion.

And those from the Confederacy had split reactions. A part of them couldn\'t help but retort to what I said and accused me of slander, the thing Sen held back to do while the rest kept mum.

From there I continued to provoke them starting from those about the Heroes until I mentioned about the captives. Apart from the news we sent out that there were captives from the destroyed Black Market that was colluding with the enemy of the world, there\'s no mention of a Dark World denizen being captured.

However, Sen who was already triggered from all the taunts I threw had a slip of his tongue when I asked who wanted to see the captive. He raised his hand in agitation just to get rid of me but he specifically mentioned that he didn\'t need to see the Dark World denizen.

I don\'t know if there were other snakes or someone else who picked that up but it is clear that the son of the Confederacy Head had access to the information we didn\'t reveal to anyone else.

Even if the information came from a snake still hidden inside the League, only a member of that organization would have access to that kind of information.

"Un. I have you and Lexie working for me, I don\'t need to worry that anything will go wrong. Let them see the triplets, we already made preparation for this, I also instructed those three on what to do while you\'re outside."

The triplet was given a chance when they told us what\'s the last thing they were keeping from us.

The location of the Training Camp.

Those three have a strong will to live. Due to that, they searched for a method to know where exactly that camp was located on a map. That way, they could plan for their escape if things go south for them.

With the three sisters working together, they triangulated and narrowed down the area thanks to the information they could gather every time they would be out for outdoor training or small missions. Even if they had their visions blocked, there were also times when not all three of them will go.

However, we still need to prove if what they told us was true. That\'s why I\'ll personally go there along with the three Heroes, if possible, to check the area.

The cube in their chest was already rid of the Dark Energy stored in it. Even if Delares died, they would still live unless there were more death triggers inside their bodies that they were still unaware of.

After checking in with Nysia, I went back to assist Lexie and told her what Nysia instructed.

When the delegates saw me, most of their faces turned black, especially those who reacted earlier. Fortunately for them, I\'m now behaving myself this time. Though their expressions weren\'t good, I smiled at them as if what happened earlier was already forgotten by me.

And that earned another various reactions depending on how they reacted earlier.

After that, I had Lexie do all the honors while I silently watched to observe them.

Soon enough, the three heroes couldn\'t hold themselves back to approach me. Leaving the other six for Lexie to guide, I took the three of them away.

None of them objected since it\'s already widely known that I\'m the fourth one and the wrongdoings to the three where they always sent them to fight each other have already come to light.

"Daisuke, you made them angry."

Amry opened the conversation between us four. Kazeyoshi and Matthew nodded their heads and agreed to what she said.

"I\'ll tell you why I did that later. Anyway, you heard what happened, right?"

"Ah. Sorry if I didn\'t come, there\'s no way to leave when I have my duty to fulfill."

Kazeyoshi wore an apologetic expression thinking I\'m going to ask why they didn\'t come. Due to that, the other also did the same.

These three… they\'re now in sync but this wasn\'t what I wanted for them.

"I\'m not talking about that, you will not be able to arrive on time anyway so it\'s fine. I\'m asking for your thoughts."

I expect them to notice the current situation but I guess Kazeyoshi was still the same, an idiot. I\'ll let Amry deal with him.

"There were enemies lurking in every factions\' higher ranks."

"Unknown intention."

Amry and Matthew answered. Like I thought, save for Kazeyoshi, these two are more reliable.

"Eh? I was told there\'s no one like that in our ranks. They\'re all clean."

I could only mentally facepalm for him. I guess he needs some kind of lesson to cure his seemingly natural idiocy.

At that thought, I turned to Amry who was gritting her teeth in a bid to restrain herself from calling out Kazeyoshi.

"Amry. You don\'t need to hold back. In fact, please educate him."

"Are you sure?"

Amry wasn\'t rejecting the idea, in fact, she seemed more eager to do it that a playful smile appeared from her lips at the thought of educating Kazeyoshi.

"Un. There\'s a lot of them hidden so we need to at least let him be aware of it."

"I agree with Daisuke."

Matthew expressed. Even if he seldom talks in long sentences he\'s still someone who would voice his thoughts out.

"If that\'s the case, I won\'t hold back. Hey idiot Windrunner! Let\'s go, I have a lot to teach you."

Now that she got our approval, she immediately pulled Kazeyoshi by his arm. Confused at what had just happened, he turned to me, waiting for an explanation. Unlucky for him, I didn\'t answer and just gestured for him to go along with her.

"Daisuke, you\'re not really a Hero, right?"

Once the two disappeared from our sight, Matthew asked.

"I\'m not. How did you know?"

"Just a hunch."

Out of the three of them, he\'s surely the one who had the best grasp of the situation. His nature made him become a natural observer. In a huge faction as that, there would surely be instances where he would be exposed to the things happening around him.

Amry probably had the same insight but with her nature, others were probably wary of her.

As for Kazeyoshi. Ah. Let\'s not talk about him. Let\'s just hope Amry to be successful.

"I didn\'t mean to hide it from you but I needed you to trust me back then. You were fighting here for 3 years, thinking you\'re the lone Hero existing here. It must have been uncomfortable to learn that there were three of you. With my addition, Amry and you, both of your focus turned to me."

That\'s the reason why I had to appear as a Hero for them first.  They\'re only educated by the Principal and with their nature, they would surely not trust everything someone stronger would say to them.

"You\'re right. That was effective. Then what are you?"

"I\'m your Support. That\'s why Matthew, I have the means to power you and Amry up, however, I can only choose one for now. Do you want it?"

"I see. You\'re every Hero\'s Support. I understand. As for that power-up, give it to Amry first."

"Alright."

He\'s probably more of a good guy, a fitting trait of a Hero, eh? For him to let Amry get the power-up first, with how large my Support Boosts now, it might be enough to let them close in to the Transcendent threshold. All of them are still at Gold-rank Tier 1, once they reach Diamond-rank, the stat that they will gain might be enough for them to reach it. The divide between a Mortal and Transcendent

When that time comes, apart from me, there will be three more Transcendents that will boost this world\'s strength to combat the Alien Civilization and the Dark World.

Well, there might be more. Especially these delegates that I have interacted with. If the same thing happened just like how Ophelia was affected by it, even Lexie might have a chance to become a Transcendent.

However, what will happen to a world when they become full of Transcendents? Chaos or the world will also experience Transcendence?

Upgrading themselves from a Mortal World to a Transcendent World. If that happens, the Source Energy of every denizen will be upgraded naturally.

Err… I\'m overthinking again. But that\'s not a bad guess, right? There should be an explanation somewhere. It might even be possible that every world starts as a Mortal World, right?

When I was done explaining to Matthew about my identity of being a support and the things that he might receive, we decided moved back to join the delegates on their way to see the triplets.
