"You're here, Daisuke!"
As soon as my vision cleared up, two girls instantly put in their embrace. Yumiko is in her usual Shrine Maiden outfit and Jayna is in that tight-fitting dress of hers that's enough to invoke n's desire.
Since I promised about helping them clear out the remaining Dark Elves and the closing of the Portal here, as soon as the cooldown of the Support Incarnation ended, I imdiately sent this Incarnation to them.
This ti, with the enhancent provided by Energy Amplification and the Totem, the duration of the clone will be more than a day. 70% of my total strength and Skill or Ability Effects.
However, the downside from the use of the Totem this ti was that it increased the cooldown ti to five days instead of the usual three.
In any case, a 20% increase than the original half of my current total strength is more than enough to help them. It lifted over UPL 100 after all.
By having Yumiko, they already have the sufficient strength here. A superb detection ability was what they lacked.
"You two always do this. Don't you want it to be the other way around?"
"Does that an you will hug us?"
Upon hearing my words, Jayna's eyes shone instantly as she tightened her hug on . As I could feel that certain supple part of hers, there's no doubt that it grew again even if it's just a bit.
Err… Instead of Yumiko and Yuko, she's competing in that category against Nysia and Sofiel.
"Of course, I also miss you two."
"Don't believe him completely, Jayna. He's just making it up to us since he added one more sister for us and there's a very high chance that there's another one entering soon."
Yumiko pinched my sides as she smugly said what she thought to be my motive for being forward this ti.
Of course, she's partly correct and her pinch didn't hurt at all. It's an Incarnation after all.
But since Yumiko said it, Jayna believed her words which resulted in her pouting.
To appease the curious girl, I picked her up and brought her inside to fill in her longing for . Of course, that also earned a pout from Yumiko, so I did the sa to her.
Well, we couldn't really do anything but just cuddle each other but for them, that's already enough to lessen their longing for .
And that's how the first 30 minutes of my stay in the World of Spirit went; appeasing the girls I left behind…
Err… After that sweet ti with them, we moved onto the serious issues, especially the reason why I'm here.
To start, I had Yumiko detail to their last operation which aid to clear out the remaining Dark Elves. She couldn't really squeeze in even the summary of it during our 10-minute calls.
Apparently, the Dark Elves who stayed cooped up at that one corner of this world went underground and built so kind of labyrinth there.
And they started building that ever since they were pushed back until they could only stay at that corner. They already predicted that at one point in ti, there's a possibility of a Transcendent appearing among the denizens of this World.
With the help of the tools they brought from their howorld as well as the Dark Energy they sparingly used, a Formation that was originally from a Higher World was built inside their Labyrinth. The Formation's effect was to make the Labyrinth beco more complex than how it was built.
Because of that, it can easily make soone beco lost inside. And by adding more Trap Formations, the core of the Labyrinth beca the safe haven of the remaining Dark Elves.
Since it was from a Higher World, even Yumiko, the only Transcendent here could be affected by it.
Also, when Yumiko tried to call for help from the Higher Spirits which she could form a connection with by using her Unique Ability, she found out that she could now directly speak with all of them using it.
According to Higher Spirits, after reaching Transcendence, she was already approaching their level of strength. What she could borrow from them would also be useless against the Formation. Unless her Ability could borrow all of their strength and abilities, even an expert at Formation would not be able to help her.
With that kind of information, that sohow confird that the said Higher Spirits are really existing sowhere in the wide universe. And if I use the information I got from Sofiel about her past life, it also supported my guess about the identities of these Higher Spirits. Most likely, they are denizens of a Transcendent World. If I can stretch my guess further then they are Transcendents of a Spirit Type of World. Whether they ca from the sa Transcendent Worlds or not, that's still up for them to confirm. Their current Transcendent Rank is also unconfird.
In any case, Yumiko's Unique Ability is really extraordinary that it connected her to denizens of a Higher World. Even when she was just starting as an ordinary Mortal who had just been summoned to this world, it allowed her to contend with soone that could normally crush her like an ant.
Since they ntioned needing her to borrow all of their strength then I could only assu that they're more than just Rank 1 Transcendents or that the Formation Master needed to use all of his strength to analyze the Formation.
When I asked Yumiko about the progress of her ability, she told that it was already approaching the new level. If it leveled up, she would surely get a new function from that ability and she might start communicating to an even higher world to borrow their strength. Unfortunately, we couldn't wait for it to level up before attacking the Dark Elves.
"I understand. I'm still not sure if it will work well but if my sensitivity to energy can be proven effective to navigate that Labyrinth. Let's end this tonight. Jayna, your Door of Transcendence will arrive later, right?"
"Yes. Six hours from now."
"Well then, let's go and visit our long-eared friends. We have six hours to clean them up and close the Portal. Most likely, the location of the Portal is inside the core."
Since they already pinpointed the location of the enemies, wasting ti to sit and plan everything out will be useless.
We can do that while moving towards the location.

Because of Yumiko's Transcendence and her close relationship with the Spirit King and Queen, apart from the small skirmishes that were happening to train the weaker and young Spiritas and Spirit Beasts, the Council of Twenty finally reached to a consensus about stopping any attempt of a large scale war against the Spirit Beasts.
Well, it's also because the Peace Faction beca the strongest voice in the Council thanks to the advancent of Harland of becoming a Ruler Spirit. There's also Jayna's father who's close to becoming another Ruler Spirit that was a close friend and firm supporter of him.
Though we left behind the treasures we found inside the Ancient Ruins, it will be months before it shows visible results to the enhancent of the race.
The forr territories of the Spiritas were slowly being regained since there's no point for the Spirit Beasts to hold them. Now, fortresses beyond the current territory were being built as a foothold to rebuild ruins left behind by the Three-way War.
Where I appeared was in the fortress nearest to the location of the Labyrinth. Yumiko and Jayna along with those who will co with us already moved here a day earlier. They're really just waiting for for them to set off.
That's why when I went out of the room with the two girls, I was welcod by the twins Ren and Rei as well as Jagu along with his wife.
The three were just a stage away to beco a Noble Spirit. By their standards, it's already a miraculous feat but compared to Jayna and Yumiko's progress, it's barely comndable.
Even so, it's just more than a month since my real body left this world. The three were struggling as a Transford Spirits back then and they had just broken through from their previous stage. Their progress this ti was probably not only the result of being part of Yumiko's group but also of being associated with .
After greeting them, we imdiately told them to gear up as we will be setting off soon.
5 minutes later, two big dots of blue and silver appeared from the direction of the Spirit Beasts Capital. Of course, they're Ezyn and Yse who will join us.
After another 5 minutes, 3 more dots appeared from the direction of the Spiritas Territory. Harland, Jayce and Malborne, the Frontier Fortress Commander will also join the cleanup.
This attack will be a montous event whether we succeed or not.
If we really manage to clean this world of the Dark Elves and the Portal, it will beco the start of a peaceful era.
Or they can fight among themselves again. That's not our problem anymore. However, considering they're already aware about Transcendents and higher worlds, they will aim for that instead of pulling out their swords against one another.
If we failed at cleaning the Dark Elves and closing the Portal, the descent of the Dark World Transcendents here cannot be stopped anymore. This world will then enter a more chaotic era wherein if they lose, this world will be assimilated to the Dark World.
"Now that everyone's here. Let's set off."
Yumiko declared as she waved her gohei and conjured the manifestation of her own Spirit Ocean.
