The Ultimate Support Character

"Monster, let me break that!" Erin who\'s fiddling on the controls of her Ultimate Metagen shouted when we were met with a thick Energy Barrier upon reaching the entrance of the domed structure where the Portal was located.

From how thick it was, it felt like it wouldn\'t easily break using a Rank 1 Transcendent\'s attack. Moreover, it\'s probably regenerating as well considering I could feel some ground regenium mixed in it.

Looking closely, the Energy Barrier wasn\'t from a Formation that made use of Energy Stones to be activated and powered up. This one was made from a similar kind of technology the World of Meta denizens possessed which made use of the regenium\'s properties.

Compared to an Energy Stone which contained raw Source Energy, Regenium was not only a conductor of Energy but also an amplifier. That\'s the reason why the Metagens and Powergens could increase the Energy Output.

This Energy Barrier they put up was clever in a way. Compared to a Formation, it could repair itself faster because of the regenium.

However, they probably forgot or they really didn\'t know that there were two people that could easily break down a Barrier as long as it\'s not too strong.

The keywords were \'Energy\' and \'Barrier\'.

For the word Energy, there\'s none other than me. If I exercised my Energy Manipulation and focused my Nullification Zone on one point, I could drill a hole through this thick Energy Barrier.

And for the word Barrier, my wife who\'s the menace of every type of defense could weaken this. If a target was this stationary, she could also exercise the true prowess of her Ability. Moreover, Nysia had already started treading her Transcendent Pathway.

Although it was just the 1st realm, her ability was enhanced to a certain degree.

Right. Her Transcendent Pathway involved her assimilating Elemental-type properties. Apparently, the reason why she could create those Ruin Golems in her domain was because of that. She\'s starting to sense that it was easy for her to control metals, ores or even the earth. If I\'m not wrong then she was becoming more sensitive to the Earth Element.

"Stay here with me, Erin. We have an expert to take that down... Besides, we had something to take care of. These bugs finally crawled out of their holes."

From behind us, at least ten Ultimate Darkgens suddenly appeared and in their hand was a piece of equipment which raised another thick Energy Barrier which made use of regenium\'s properties, enclosing us in between two Energy Barriers.

Like I thought before coming here, they set that up as bait for us. Well, it\'s not like we didn\'t come here knowing that they would ambush us.

"Nysia, I\'ll leave the barrier to you. And Erin, don\'t kill any of them, we\'re going to lure everyone and… I had something that could rid us of these pests."

With the two women nodding their agreements, they instantly moved even before one of the Darkbugs leading the enemies could start his monologue.

Nysia controlled her Sanguine Aegis to arrive in front of the Energy Barrier leading to the Portal. Not minding the newcomers, she completely activated her Ability and channeled it to her prized weapon. Coupled with the Bluntforce covering it, the Sanguine Aegis lifted its arms and smashed down on the thick Energy Barrier.

BOOM!

With a deafening noise, splinters of small pieces of regenium were instantly blown away as a glaring dent was made on that thick Energy Barrier.

At the same time as that, Erin clumsily controlled the Black Mist as she flew towards the middle. Along with the appearance of her Shadow Clones, she activated one of the Black Mist\'s abilities.

Suddenly, a huge patch of darkness spread out from beneath the Ultimate Metagen\'s feet…

Because they thought we were caught in their ambush, the ten Ultimate Dakrgens failed to jump out of the darkness\' way, resulting in them being engulfed in it.

If I could recall correctly, that ability could restrict one\'s sense of sight. And that included the sight of a Darkgen and Metagen.

Although it was weak when I was the one using it, with Erin\'s Shadow Manipulation, it was enhanced to another level that if not for my Energy Senses, I would\'ve lost sight of the ten Darkgens inside that Darkness.

"Surprised? You\'re now su--! Huh? Wait!" From being smug for the fact that we ended up trapped between barriers, that one guy who was about to gawk at us was immediately baffled at the sudden change.

Inside that darkness, the ten of them became blind that they started crashing against each other.

Of course, if it was only Erin\'s ability, they would be able to break out of it in seconds. However, the Domain of Valor and my Energy Linkage was instantly activated as soon as I sensed their Energy Signature while they crawled out from behind that domed structure where they were hiding.

Because of that, Erin got the chance to restrict all ten of them at once.

"Monster, watch me take them down." As if she\'s afraid that I would forget her contribution, Erin kept on reminding me about it. For sure, she\'ll ask me to praise her later and I will naturally do it for her.

Even if she\'s still unfamiliar with the complex control of an Ultimate Metagen, Erin plunged inside that patch of darkness alongside her Shadow Clones which completely blended in it.

Boom! Crash! Boom!

In a matter of seconds, pieces of the Darkgens started flying out of that patch of darkness.

​ And whenever someone would be able to leave it, I would instantly move to kick them back inside.

In less than a minute, a flare fired up in the sky from inside that darkness where Erin was toying with them.

With the added Intelligence stat and 25% of my total Energy Control, Erin\'s Shadow Manipulation, Jewel Skills and Pillar dominated that battle of Mechas.

Perhaps, if she was dropped down to an anime or a movie full of those, she would be able to steamroll every Mecha that would face her.

Well, that\'s as long as I was there with her.

"… What\'s happening Daisuke? I couldn\'t see anything." Reinys, Noelle and Caila had their forehead creased as they tried to see through that darkness which Erin conjured.

Because I could sense the movements of Energy inside it, I didn\'t bother to try and reflect it on my Metagen\'s screen.

"Ah. My bad. Here." I inputted some commands and channeled my ability into my Metagen. As soon as I did that, the previously dark screen lightened up, showing the outline of the Darkgens and Erin\'s Metagen and Shadow Clones inside it.

Upon seeing that, the three women gasped in astonishment seeing how Erin was toying against the ten.

There was that first Metagen who she kicked and got sent out of the darkness, but I immediately followed up and kicked him back inside.

In that way of fighting, the ten Darkgens were soon battered up. Even activating their abilities was proven futile as they were all being restricted by me by shooting my Nullification Bullets, the modified version of my Dispelling Bow.

Combining Nullification Zone and that Bow produced that kind of result. The bow that would\'ve been conjured changed into a rifle made out of energy that could shoot those kinds of bullets.

Nonetheless, it\'s not as overpowered as my Nullification Zone, it could only disperse the Energy on the part where the ball-sized bullet would hit. Moreover, it costs more energy than just maintaining the zone.

After that first flare that was shot by one of the ten Ultimate Darkgens, the other nine also fired their own flares, temporarily illuminating that patch of Darkness.

Using that as a chance to counterattack, the ten Ultimate Darkgens all burst out with their Dark Energy as their different abilities were unleashed towards the Black Mist.

Looking at their abilities which were reminiscent of Psyche-type Pathway-born abilities, I could somehow guess that it\'s either the ones who made their Darkgens added those abilities to their Darkgens or some of them were probably treading a Transcendent Pathway that assimilated Psyche-type properties.

Of course, since I was watching the situation, as soon as they moved to counterattack, I also jumped in to help Erin tide through it.

I conjured four clones and had the four Pillar Guardians to go with each of them.

It\'s not like they could ride the Metagen Clones. However, with the four Pillar Guardians providing assistance, the supposed ten attacks were instantly reduced to six.

Furthermore, the real White Knight instantly arrived at Erin\'s side, covering both of us with the Aura of Protection.

With that increased defense and the Quintuple Shields protecting her, she was only pushed back a few steps behind before she spun and stabbed her Metagen\'s dagger on the closest Ultimate Darkgen.

"Help--!" Before the dagger managed to completely lodged itself inside that cockpit, the Dark World Transcendent inside still managed to shout for help.

But it\'s all too late. When Erin pulled out the dagger, it was already laden with the Transcendent\'s blood. If one would look inside that Darkgen. They would surely see the Dark World Transcendent\'s body split in half.

Although I told her to not kill anyone, this one\'s inevitable. Who said they could be desperate to counterattack? They should just stay still and be played by Erin\'s combat abilities.

When the flare shining in the sky died down, the area became engulfed with the Black Mist\'s ability one again.

At this moment, I heard someone\'s voice inside my mind. Yuko used the crystal to report the situation on their front. "Daisuke. Be careful. Among their Transcendents, there\'s a Rank 2, she\'s not riding a Darkgen. She probably had just descended from their world. As soon as you become trapped in there, their other Transcendents came out to try and deal with us here. Ah! Before you worry, we managed to repel them. But after seeing those flares, they\'re now on their way to your position. Your plan could now be executed!"

Yuko ended her message with an excited and elated tone.

Although I was aware of these ten who crawled behind us, it seems that there\'s still a lot of them who thought that with Nysia trapped in here, they would be able to deal with the other Transcendents. Good thing there\'s Yuko and Irja there, the two who were currently stronger than the one they dreaded to face.

They lacked a lot of information. Perhaps, if not for that supposed Rank 2, they wouldn\'t try that stunt.

After replying to Yuko, I controlled the White Knight out of that patch of darkness. I stood up from the seat and opened the cockpit to fly out of it, telling the three inside to watch over it.

What I prepared was a regular gun after all. My Metagen wouldn\'t be able to fire it…

Now, let\'s see if they will be able to line up properly and taste Dannae\'s specialty. Overly Amplified Gun.
