The Ultimate Support Character

"Here. Try this!"

From behind Yumiko, an apparition of her called out Higher Spirit appeared. It's a woman whose hair was pure white like snow. She's wearing a sky-blue kimono and Yumiko's Aura suddenly turned cold that her Spirit Energy started having the cold properties of snow.

Is that a Yuki-onna? How come there's a yokai in one of her Spirits? Also… We're inside a Virtual Simulation, how come even those Spirits she could call using her Spirit Channeling were copied? Is it also copied from her memories? This virtual simulation device is somewhat godly, isn't it? And they're still trying to upgrade this there.

Either way, with that Spirit Channeling, she managed to resist Fleur's instant cast 9-nodes Water Elemental Spell.

By freezing the raging waves of water coming in her direction, Yumiko broke those into pieces using her gohei.

She then used the borrowed Ability from the Higher Spirit, a Snowfield Domain. Afterwards, by gathering the broken ice crystals, Yumiko sent a Blizzard towards Fleur's position.

To support her counter-attack, Yumiko also moved towards Fleur by riding her miniature Spirit Ocean, her shrine maiden outfit fluttering in the air.

After seeing it again, that outfit is too dangerous… That's despite Yumiko making sure that it was tucked in and wouldn't come off easily. If we ever find the world of those Higher Spirits, I will beat them up for eyeing my Companion's figure.

With her gohei wielded as a melee weapon, she delivered an attack which was complemented with her Blizzard. There's no Bluntforce in her gohei yet but she covered it with Spirit Energy and the ability of her borrowed Spirit giving it a flash of brilliance and power enough to break all Quintuple Shields if ever it was put up against it.

Between the two of them, Yumiko was getting a higher Support Bonus from me but Fleur was already near the 2nd realm of her Transcendent Pathway. With the help of her Spirit Channeling, Yumiko managed to bridge the difference in stats.

Seeing the rushing Yumiko, Fleur opened her Aquatic Domain to disperse the blizzard and contest the Snowfield Domain of Yumiko.

As the two Domains tried to gain superiority over each other, Yumiko and Fleur entered melee combat. Yumiko's gohei against Fleur's branch-like staff.

Both of them still didn't reach the necessary mastery to generate a type of Weaponforce. Yumiko always relied on her Spirits or just her Transformation and the application of her Spirit Energy while Fleur always relied on her Elemental Spells. The number of battles wherein they utilized their melee combat skills is low.

"Wow, Fleur can fight Yumiko on even ground."

Jayna who also entered the Virtual Simulation muttered at my side. She's watching their sparring fight excitedly while clinging onto me even here.

"Do you also want to try, Jayna? I can be your sparring partner."

Sofiel who was at my other side moved to Jayna's side and asked, her wings flapping excitedly.

That girl… She's been acting as Jayna's doting older sister since earlier. Well, it's not like it's a bad thing. Just that, the girl who's somehow like me when it concerns other people's lives can be this caring. I guess it's limited to me and my Companions.

"Yes! Please go easy on me!"

Jayna didn't think twice and instantly agreed to her.

And with that, the sparring between my Companions continued for 5 hours. When they got tired of fighting each other, they all turned to me and teamed up to catch me.

Of course, with Sofiel being a Rank 2 Transcendent, despite using everything to dodge them, the four cornered me and I suffered various types of beatings. It's a simulation so they didn't hold back at all.

When we went out of the Virtual Simulation, only half an hour passed in real-time due to accelerating the time inside for 10 times that of normal.

"I decided. I will adapt to Elemental Energy."

"Me too!"

Yumiko and Jayna declared when I asked them what they thought. That's the purpose of the sparring after all.

The two saw how versatile Elemental Energy can be. Fleur didn't stick to only Water Elemental Energy. There were times when she utilized other elements to incorporate them into her Elemental Spells even though it was always minimal due to her race being that of an Elemental. Sofiel also did the same and it was more emphasized with her, unlike the Elementals, only her Main Elemental Core was fixed after all.

"Well then, try it. We'll watch over you."

These two girls will be the first to try adapting to two different Source Energy Types. Well, even if I already experienced it, I want to see others undergoing the same process. It might deepen my understanding of my Adaptability.

Yumiko and Jayna nodded and sat in a lotus position before concentrating on activating the Flux Energy State.

As soon as they start, the surrounding Elemental Energy stirred and created a whirlpool around them.

Fleur and Sofiel moved to my side and also watched the process where the two are adapting to the Elemental Energy as well as their meteoric rise in Elemental Pathway to be equal to their Spirit Pathway. The two will also need to choose which Source Energy Type they will adapt to after all.

Once we close the Portals on the 3 worlds where my Companions are located, I'll take them to every world and let them choose the Energy they wanted to adapt to by themselves. They knew their abilities better than me and through that, they'll be stronger than they are today.

Whoosh!

Soon enough, the whirlpool of Elemental Energy surrounding both Yumiko and Jayna changed into the color of the Main Elemental Core that was about to form.

Above Yumiko's head, an empty vessel which represented the Main Elemental Core was conjured. And circling around it was a cloud of green color which represented the Wind Element. It gained superiority over the other colors that were visible earlier. Most probably that represented her affinity over the other elements and in the end, Wind prevailed.

The same as what happened on Yumiko, above Jayna's head, the Main Elemental Core was conjured and soon afterwards, her Main Element became apparent. Only two colors were contesting for superiority on hers. The first one is the red color of Fire Elemental Energy and the second one is the yellow color of Earth Elemental Energy.

Her favorite vines and her Transformation as a Nature Nymph probably played a role for the Earth Elemental Energy and most likely that was the dominant one before she assimilated the Earthfire Essence. Due to it being a Mystical Flame, it raised her affinity to Fire Element to be on par with the Earth Element.

Because of that fight on which element would take up the Main Elemental Core, the Awakening Process was delayed for a bit.

Back to Yumiko's side, the clouds of Wind Elemental Energy have started to fill up the Main Elemental Core. It only took at least ten seconds before it completely filled up. By then she passed the Elemental Awakening Realm and continued to move past Elemental Gathering and Elemental Condensing Realm.

Before coming here, she hadn't made another breakthrough so she's still at the 4-Seas Noble Spirit Realm in her Spirit Pathway. To match up to that, her Elemental Pathway will be forcefully raised to the 4th Stage of Elemental Forming Realm by conjuring four Secondary Cores.

Jayna, after becoming a Transcendent also got a free two breakthroughs raising her Spirit Pathway to be the same as Yumiko. Though they're the same, Yumiko is still somewhat superior due to the Unique Ability from Psyche Energy as well as the additional 50% Support Bonus by being both listed as Supported Individual and Companion.

To help them smoothly tide through this assimilation of a new type of Energy, I used Energy Zone to gather more Elemental Energy for their use.

Thanks to that, the Gathering and Condensing realm only took a few minutes for Yumiko before the Secondary Cores started to be formed.

After Wind Element as her Main Element, the Secondary Cores were as followed; Fire, Earth, Water, and Light.

"She will be getting all the Natural and Special Elements…"

Sofiel muttered upon seeing the pattern.

"… Are your new Companions this monstrous, darling? Fleur is already one, now here's Yumiko who has the possibility to sense Aether or Void. What about Erin?"

"That girl is a genius so… maybe?"

That Barbarian girl was probably pushing herself to keep up though. If not for that, Avelin would have long surpassed her. She's not just a normal genius but someone hardworking as well. I wonder what Source Energy Types will that girl choose?

"I knew it, you will not pick just anyone."

Sofiel sighed softly however soon afterwards, a smile formed on her lips.

I don't really just pick anyone… and it's also not based on their talent. It's just a coincidence, right?

But those four at the World of Meta... Aren't they all talented? I still have to decide on what to do with them after coming back there but yeah let's not think about that for now.

On the other side, Jayna finally finished the struggle whether it will be Fire or Earth and in the end, Earth prevailed to become her Main Elemental Core. However, when she reached the point of conjuring her Secondary Cores, all four were Fire Element. I guess it will be those two in the end. She would then fuse the two which is really suitable to her current state right now.

After the forming of their Secondary Cores, they still spent another five minutes to completely stabilize their new Pathway. As soon as they finished… Yumiko and Jayna looked at Fleur and Sofiel respectively.

"Let's spar one more time!!"

The two cheerfully said in unison.
