The Ultimate Support Character-Chapter 415 Operation Moonfall (4)

"Uhm… Will they be fine there?" Lunaria asked through the opened communication channel which consisted of Daisuke's eight companions that were fighting alongside the Core Pilots of every Faction.

When Daisuke, Nysia and Erin's Metagens suddenly went out of their Metagen's radar after landing in the middle of the Moon Stronghold, they were suddenly besieged by at least 15 Transcendents, half of which weren't riding a Darkgen.

The 15 Transcendents led by one Rank 2 Transcendent came in strong as they swiftly targeted the Core Pilots bravely making a path for others, halting the advance of the United Alliance Forces.

Fortunately, before they could try to push back the Metagens cutting through their breached defenses, Yuko flew up high with her Specialized Metagen and held out her Metagen's saber up high.

By utilizing her Hero System, Yuko activated an exclusive skill that she often uses when fighting a large-scale battle.

Hero's Battlecry!

Instead of shouting herself, the regenium saber on her Metagen's hand shone even brighter than the sun that could be glimpsed at from the distance.

While it blinded even the Rank 2 Transcendent of the opposing forces, the light draped over every Metagen fighting on the battlefield, enhancing their prowess.

Although it's not as prominent as the Hero's Ultimate, Battlecry increased every affected ally's morale, clearing the negative thoughts in their mind.

With a clear mind, it gave them the ability to judge the situation clearly, preventing mistakes in their decisions.

If not for them riding a Metagen, they would've also made use of the bonus Strength and Endurance given by that skill. Nonetheless, just the increase in their morale was enough to totally dominate the field.

To add to that maximized morale, Yuko flew out of her Metagen to face that Rank 2 Transcendent with her true prowess, rubbing the fact that the Rank 2 Transcendent wasn't anything special even if she's the only Rank 2 among their side.

The result of their short bout was a one-sided beating. Yuko flawlessly dodged each and every attack of the Rank 2 Dark World Transcendent and accurately timed her counterattacks to hit her squarely where it would hurt.

Upon seeing that the Rank 2 Transcendent which gave them the hope to turn the tide was being toyed by Yuko, the morale of the Mortal Ranks lowered, resulting in another chance for the Core Pilots to push them back once more.

Because of that, one side of the Moon's stronghold was completely breached and destroyed as the remaining enemies retreated back to form another defensive line.

There were even others who already lost hope as they tried to ride their Darkgens outside the artificial gravitational influence they set up on the Moon.

Unfortunately, they're all jumping towards their immediate death. By doing that, they became easy targets for the Core Pilots when they couldn't navigate well in space.

The only reason they could go to and from the moon despite not being a Transcendent or not having Specialized Darkgens was because of what the Dark World denizens' set up when they first built their stronghold three years ago.

If not for that setup, it would be impossible for the Mortal Ranks below Rank 4 to walk on the moon, much less, breathe in it. And even for Rank 4 and Rank 5, they still found it hard to stay on the moon where there were no resources.

Enticing the Transcendents on the surface with the only thing they could offer, Dark Energy, allowed them to sustain themselves in this place.

"They will be! Daisuke… He planned to kill all of them in one shot." Answering that inquiry was the excited Dannae who firmly believed that he could do that.

Apart from Daisuke, only Nysia, Yuko and Irja knew about the gun she charged for a whole month at his behest.

He actually planned to tell everyone about it. However, because he spent most of his time together with Irja and Yuko after coming back from the Anzeans' Mothership, he lost the chance to say it.

"Is that possible?" Avelin wondered.

Even though Daisuke already told her about the story of how he destroyed the Door of Transcendence more than once, the girl failed to recall the existence of the gun.

Not her fault since the girl only wanted to continue hearing Daisuke's voice and staying by his side. Ever since he appeared in that small tribe of hers, her life started revolving around him. Even she was unaware of that occurrence. For her, she was only following her head and heart. After remembering things from her past life, albeit fragments, her belief about her meeting with Daisuke and staying with him was preordained.

"I remembered… When he became a Transcendent, he said he used Dannae's gun and abilities to destroy the Door of Transcendence in one shot."

"Oh! You're right. Dannae… you, you gave him your gun again?"

Elise and Leianne remembered that day he went back to the city after being a Transcendent. Daisuke mentioned to them about the gun which allowed him to easily pass through the Door of Transcendence.

"Yes! I charged it for a month. He said it's now as strong as a Rank 3 Transcendent's attack."

Confirming their guess, Dannae broke the news to them while smiling silly.

She's still hung up at becoming his Companion and the time she spent with him where Daisuke held her dearly in his arms while showering her with his affection through his kisses.

She lived her life being discriminated against but that one meeting in the Scorched Forest changed her life. Not only has she found someone who's not judging her based on her appearance but also someone she's readily willing to spend the rest of her life with.

"No wonder he only brought Nysia and Erin." Zerina who seldom spoke out her thoughts also joined in their conversation. pan(da-n0vel.c)om

After those 15 Transcendents retreated when colorful flares were fired from where Daisuke and the others should've been, they continued pushing the battlefield. Without anyone commanding the Dark World Mortal Ranks in their Darkgens, the Core Pilots could now easily break their ranks, separate them and deal with them one by one.

"I notified Daisuke about the Transcendents coming to their position. He said to leave it to him."

Yuko then relayed the conversation she had with Daisuke through the communication crystal. Like always, she had full confidence in him. Telling him to be careful was her show of concern towards her beloved. No matter what, she couldn't just completely rely on her ability.

Throughout their experiences together, there was only one time where she completely worried about Daisuke's well-being.

That incident was when he almost died from the Corrupted Priest's sudden finger attack back at the World of System.

That was something she failed to predict. Thankfully, Zerina was there who pushed him out of harm's way.

After that incident, Yuko became prudent at using her Psyche Energy. She started to limit her use of it so that whenever something unexpected came up, her Psyche Energy would be used to activate one of the Passive Skills from her Foresight.

It'sa skill that would be triggered if someone specified by her would be put in danger. Naturally, she specified Daisuke as the target of that skill.

Whenever it would trigger, it would show her the predicted danger that he would soon face. However, there were three different warning signs based on the level of danger; green, yellow and red.

Although it was triggered more than once when he was not at her side, those incidents only showed either green or yellow warning signs.

By using another Skill from her Foresight, she would predict the result of that scene shown by that Passive Skill and so far, he resolved it all magnificently.

The only red warning sign that was triggered was when he was fighting against that Higher World Transcendent, the prediction she got from the result was inconclusive. That day, she closed herself in her room to wait and focused her mind on that image she saw about that future. Reinforcing her mind that even if the result was inconclusive, Daisuke would survive.

And a few hours after that, she was relieved after hearing his voice and seeing his state when he called her using the Interdimensional Communication.

At the moment, there were no signs of danger being triggered for Daisuke that's why she's not worried about his current status.

"… Can't we go to his side? Even though he's confident with the gun, we have to be there in case something unexpected happens." With a trace of worry in her eyes, Irja proposed.

"Yes!"

"I agree!"

Upon hearing that, the others naturally seconded her and shouted their agreements. All of them agreed except Yuko.

And that earned Yuko the seven women's questioning gazes.

To answer them, Yuko smiled and gently shook her head before pointing ahead, to the direction where Daisuke and the others would be facing the more than fifteen Transcendents.

As soon as she did… the whole moon trembled intensely as a flash of light suddenly burst out from that place. 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎

The women who followed Yuko to look in that direction braced themselves; shock, fear and awe filling up their expressions.

After that burst of light, a series of thunderous explosions soon ravaged the trajectory that light traveled to and like watching a nuke being set off, a huge mushroom-like cloud of smoke sprang up.

At that moment, the whole battlefield was silenced as they all their attentions were all caught by the devastation the explosion caused.

"He used it…"

"That gun… Dannae, what kind of strategic-class weapon did you create?"

While they were still dumbstruck at what they witnessed, Daisuke's face appeared on their screens. There was a slight smile on his lips, however, it was soon flattened as his expression turned serious.

"Seven of them survived. Yuko, Irja, Avelin, Zerina, don't let them get away. Coordinate with Old Man Reol, Liam, Lyra and the three Heroes if need be. Lunaria, Leianne, Elise and Dannae, help Lexie lead the Aegis Battalion and the Core Pilots to sweep the stronghold. Most of their defenses were now down."

"However, before everything I said, do prioritize your safety, I'll be sending my clones and Pillars to help with the chase... I'll be by your side soon. We're just going to close the Portal before more of them descend. Remember, your safety first!"

Ending his communication channel like that, all eight women had a wry smile on their lips as they didn't know if it's fine to laugh at how serious Daisuke appeared at first before changing back to the same worrywart guy that he was.

"That guy…" Irja shook her head as she remembered her experiences with him.

"That's how he is. That's why sisters, we have to be strong enough to stop that guy from continuing to worry about us." Yuko reminded them before taking off with her Specialized Metagen to start the chase.
