Chapter 587 Shattered Portals

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

Like glasses shattering from a specific vibration frequency, the gradually opening Portals to the designated Mine World that had recently sent an urgent report were simultaneously destroyed. It was a peculiar occurrence that the Transcendent Experts tasked to watch over the process of the gradual widening of the Portals found it baffling.

They immediately sprang up to their feet and inspected the wisp of Source Energy about to dissipate from the location of the supposed Portals.

"Quick! Inform the Lord. The Mine World has been destroyed. The Portals lost its link to the Mortal World and simultaneously closed."

Upon arriving at that conclusion, Rank 1 Transcendent servants were hurriedly sent out to relay the urgent report directly to the Sage while the others used a communication device to inform the high-ranking Transcendents tasked to lead a force to capture the rats.

The same as what the Great Ones of the Dark World did to the Mortal Worlds connected to Earth, this Invasive Transcendent World was forcefully opening a Portal to the Mine World through the use of the coordinates that accompanied the urgent report received hours earlier.

Having deemed the situation urgent, the Sage Rank Ruler of the Serpentine Empire ordered the immediate mobilization of Rank 4 Transcendents to expel or capture the intruder of the Mine World.

The mobilization consisted of two separate troops; experts from this 'Serpentine World' who will be traveling through Portals and experts from outside the World sent to other Mine Worlds or Fortress Worlds close to the target Mine World.

However, with the Portals shattering here, they indicated the destruction of the Mine World.

"The world is located two World Zones away. Six hours should be enough to widen the Portal to allow passage of Rank 4 Transcendents. In that short timeframe, the enemies destroyed that World. Even if they have a device to extract the Source Energy Core, it shouldn't be this quick." Wondered the Rank 4 Transcendent overseeing the Portals.

After further contemplating what happened, he sent his findings to his superior.

Boom!

Minutes later, an explosion of Source Energy could be seen at the tower where the Sage Rank resides.

Whatever that meant sent terror to every denizen of the World. Even the World's Will silently residing in its abode shuddered in horror.

Upon extracting the Source Energy Core, I quickly flew out of that location before I got buried under that floating island.

"Dai-kun. Don't you need to rest too?" Yuko turned around to face me and as always, her concern for me was overflowing.

I failed to resist pulling her into my embrace. My lovely Companion welcomed it, making Yse wryly smile.

"Later. I'll rest with you." I answered Yuko after giving her a kiss before turning to Yse, "Sorry for acting like this Yse."

"It's fine. Haven't I shown you a more embarrassing moment in our world?"

Ah. She's not wrong. Back there, she's like a dominatrix when it comes to her relationship with the Spirit King Ezyn.

We both burst into laughter, easing up the somewhat heavy mood inside this room.

Soon afterward, we turned back to the situation at hand.

"Dai-kun. When you said you're going to let your Avatar live with her, are you going to act like her guardian?"

"I think so, yes." My answer was swift. I could understand Yuko's concern. It's not just about us but also the outcome of doing that. The woman, even without her memories and having a new identity will become attached to my Avatar, or me. She's probably concerned that our destinies might converge at one point.

It's not impossible but after regaining my memories, I believe a mere Avatar cannot influence my destiny that much.

"I see... Only you can ensure that she won't be a threat to us."

"Yes. If not for that Eye, my sword would've already cut her in two."

Somehow, even though I couldn't detect any hint of negativity through Yuko's words, Yse who was listening in on us had a complicated expression.

Is she the one worrying about us now? I don't know.

In any case, we moved on from that topic soon and I told them about what we're going to do from now on.

We'll be returning to the World of Tree Spirits and creating a Portal to return to Earth. We will deliver our captives and let the old fossils and the hateful World's Will deal with them before going back out.

Of course, we won't be retracing our steps and will choose a different path to avoid the organization.

And while we're at it, I will be using the Source Energy Core to push us to Rank 4 Transcendent.

Hopefully, that will be enough.
