The Ultimate Support Character-Chapter 557 Escaping Her Shackles
Alwyn watched the slender woman show off her Energy Control. Being blessed and favored by the World's Will, she clearly had the authority to wield that much power.
However, when she thought of the guy who had abnormal Energy Control, the woman in front of her paled too much in comparison.
"Am I supposed to shake in my boots now? You held me here for days. No matter how many times I say that I'm not from whatever invasive world that made you batshit witless, you just won't accept it, right?" Alwyn smirked. Not even showing a hint of fear in her expression. Instead, she looked straight into the woman's eyes as though she were staring at her soul.
"Insolent bitch!"
SLAP!
The woman fumed and hit Alwyn with the full force of her current stats.
Unfortunately for her, Alwyn's Endurance stat nulled the pain from it. Alwyn then put on a condescending expression, looking down at the woman.
"How weak. Is this the Heavenly Mistress' strength? I pity your world, really. To have someone like you leading them."
With her physical strength returning to its peak, Alwyn could already forcefully break away from the restraining equipment that's blocking the circulation of her Source Energy.
"It's fine to be wary of a foreign Transcendent. I get that. However, to antagonize someone who claimed to only be passing by… you really should've killed me upon capture." Alwyn continued.
"Silence!" The woman screamed. Her hand where the Level 2 Source Energy gathered moved and was going to deliver her next slap on Alwyn's bruised face.
However, it was at this point that Alwyn used her physical strength to break free.
Along with the sound of the restrictive chains breaking, the Heavenly Mistress as well as the peak Rank 2 Transcendent standing not far away from them widened their eyes in shock.
"Watch out, my queen!"
The man tried to jump in between the two women to save the woman favored by the World's Will. But he was too late.
CRASH!
Before his very eyes, he saw the slender figure of the woman hurtled from where she was standing to the nearest wall. The wall cracked and she got buried in the supposedly reinforced wall.
Following that, Alwyn, who pooled her available Source Energy, transformed into her Crimson Spirit form.
Her whole figure instantly illuminated the dark dungeon with her crimson light.
"How did you—"
"That's not the right question, is it?"
Cutting off the man from completing his question, Alwyn pointed a finger towards the man and a crimson beam of her Source Energy shot from her fingertip, piercing and burying him next to the woman.
As a Rank 3 Transcendent and someone that's well within the middle-stage, the difference in stats between them was simply insurmountable.
Although he didn't die from it thanks to his Source Energy which served as a shield, the injury was serious enough for him to grow breathless and even lose his consciousness.
Furthermore, Alwyn didn't stop at that initial attack. She unhesitatingly blinked from her position and reappeared in front of them.
Grabbing them both on their necks, she pulled them out from the wall and bashed their bodies on the ground, cracking it.
Her actions might've been seen as a bit extreme but she's just doing what she had to do. She's still wary of their baffling human-centered Formation so before they could use that, Alwyn took the upper hand from them.
Her Source Energy had just restarted circulating so she's still not at her strongest. As she's still in their territory, if she didn't take the initiative, she'd just return to being a prisoner.
Seeing as the two were now unconscious from her attacks, Alwyn held them in place before raising her head. Even though she could only see the dark and dry ceiling, she assumed that the World's Will of the Transcendent World was watching. pan(da-n0vel.c)om
Alwyn was wondering. She already seriously injured the woman it favored yet, there's still no restriction imposed on her. It's as if her actions were accepted by it. Not having any avenue to talk to it directly, she could only put out a guess on its real intention.
And the conclusion she reached was…
"Tell me. Is this what you want? By favoring someone who got too paranoid and drunk in power… am I supposed to dish out a lesson for her?"
Alwyn waited for a response but a minute later, nothing came up.
And at this point, the Heavenly Mistress had started to regain consciousness.
"You… I'll kill you!" Seeing Alwyn still holding her down, the woman's eyes became bloodshot as she shrieked crazily, grabbing Alwyn's hand in a bid to take it off of her neck.
Feeling the struggling woman, she stared down at her and smirked. "Oh. You still have the energy to talk, huh? I told you, you should've done that right after my capture."
Alwyn then stomped her foot on her abdomen and tightened her grip on her neck.
After another ugly cry of pain, the woman fainted again.
At this point, Alwyn used her Transcendent Senses to check everything in the room.
Without wasting any second, Alwyn moved to get something from the table containing the torture tools that were used on her. Her Necklace was nowhere to be found but she was confident that it would return to her soon enough.
When she returned to them, she dragged the two unconscious Transcendents towards the only door leading outside. Covering their bodies was the same restrictive equipment that they used on her before.
If they once again regained consciousness, they would find themselves being unable to circulate their Source Energy.
On her way out of the dark dungeon, Daisuke's voice finally reached her.
It was delayed because of her frozen Source Energy but hearing his voice again, Alwyn found herself smiling unknowingly.
"Stop worrying about me, I'm fine." Although she's still unclear as to what was awaiting her outside that dungeon, Alwyn sent a reply to Daisuke. It's been days. Alwyn couldn't help but imagine what kind of face that guy would put on upon hearing from her again.

"Monarch, we've reached the vicinity of the Chaosworld. What do we do next?" Inyoin called out to Remilia who was relaxing inside their Space Vessel. In front of them, the Chaosworld teeming with strong Space Oddities could be seen flying in and out of its atmosphere. f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Compared to the Small Chaosworld that Daisuke's group passed, the Chaosworld in front of them was already as big as Mortal World. In fact, even Remilia, as a Rank 4 Transcendent, wouldn't be confident surviving inside it for longer than a week.
In any case, it's not like she planned to stay long there… With the suspected Transcendent World suspiciously disappearing from the Chaotic Space, the chances that Alwyn would be in the said Chaosworld was too low.
"Hmm? Then steer the Space Vessel to the surface. Open the Barrier and ignore the Space Oddities outside its atmosphere." Remilia instructed without any change in her expression.
Upon hearing that, Inyoin and her crew gasped in horror. "… G-go down the surface?"
"Yes. Is there a problem? Are you telling me you're scared?"
"N-no! With the Monarch here, there's no need to be scared."
"Great. Then go. We can't let the traitor disappear. She's holding the information the Great One Zaraya most needs."
Inwardly, Remilia was already thinking if she was going to deal with them herself or she would let the Space Oddities existing in the Chaosworld do the work for her. 'That Alwyn, where has she gone off to?'
