BXBX NOVEL Chapter 227 Illusion Eye
When Jayna realized that what she opened was the call from me, her sleepy face was instantly refreshed. The glimmer in her eyes eclipsed the lamp next to her bed. Afterwards, she looked down at what she\'s wearing and upon seeing how thin it was she bashfully picked up her quilt to cover her alluring figure.
"Daisuke... I-it\'s fine to cover myself like this, right?"
Well, I already saw it in full view and was already satisfied.
"It\'s fine, I\'ll be able to see that better when I got you by my side again."
"This… you\'ve become shameless, Daisuke."
Jayna visibly blushed and despite her words, she looked more happy hearing those from me. Now, I miss our days together in the World of Spirits.
"I\'m just being honest, Jayna. Anyway, anything new there?"
"Un. I\'m about to create my second Sea. After that, I will also be able to call the Door of Transcendence."
Jayna excitedly reported with a huge grin on her face.
Finally, it will not just be Yuko, Yumiko and Nysia. I\'m going to check on Zerina tomorrow, and maybe she\'ll also tell me the same news.
All that\'s left will be Avelin and Erin. Their status listed on the system already showed that they had reached Rank 5 Mortal which they confirmed last night, a little more and they would also reach the threshold. With how chaotic the World of Barbarian will be, it will be a matter of the number of battles they will have to face.
"That\'s splendid news. I\'m glad. I\'ll be sending my Incarnation there soon. I\'m going to help you root out the Dark Elves and close the Portal connected to the Dark World. That way you two can go with me here."
Though I am quite tempted to enter that Portal if we ever find it, I will not risk facing the Great Ones when I\'m still this weak and going in alone will be stupid. However, I knew that sooner or later, we need to go to a higher world to speed up our progress, especially if they begin to tread their Transcendent Pathways.
"Really? We can go with you?"
"If my guess is correct, yes. After becoming a Transcendent, you\'ll be able to come back with Yumiko to our world."
"Then I\'ll start breaking through! I\'ll call Yumiko!"
Jayna excitedly dashed out of her room, forgetting her current attire that was bundled in her quilt. She also forgot that the screen would go with her and would not be stationary, letting me see how she happily hopped towards the next room.
Well, seeing her this happy made me strengthen my hope for that guess to be correct. As long as the threat in their world was eradicated, there\'s no need for a Hero anymore, right? Going by the same narrative, a Transcendent could then freely do what they wanted to whether leaving their world or staying there.
The World\'s Will won\'t be able to bind her to that world anymore as she already left its influence by passing the Transcendent Trials.
Nysia will be able to do that too, however, the threat there is bigger than the three smaller worlds. Even if there\'s no Transcendent enemy there as of this moment, the resources the Dark World managed to leech off the Three Factions before were used to strengthen their stronghold at the World of Meta\'s moon.
When Jayna entered Yumiko\'s room, I was once again treated to eye candy. Yumiko was also wearing thin sleepwear which could only be called sexy. Seeing it reminded me of that night we shared before I went to the World of Meta and it once again further strengthened my desire to be with them.
After telling her my plans of sending the Incarnation there to help her and some of the things I want them to know such as my current state and how I am pursuing Fleur, the duration of the call ended.
To end my night, I started another session of 6 hours of Energy Absorption. Like them, I\'m not slacking off at cultivation. My Adaptability was progressing too slowly now. Even when I\'m already using it as much as possible, getting 1% feels like forever.
I\'m probably at the same point when the other Heroes experienced the snail\'s pace rate of improvement, which discouraged them to continue training their Abilities.
Either way, I won\'t be discouraged like them. I\'m expecting great things once my Adaptability reaches Level 3.

"You called for me, instructor?"
Boris asked. He had just been sent away by one of my clones which ended his turn.
We\'re back at the training grounds and I once again put them in training with my clones. Those who are free were either absorbing Elemental Energy inside the Energy Zone I conjured or training inside the Virtual Space.
Like I thought, the Noxian Transcendents chose not to attack the city. I was already prepared to coordinate with both Arland and Fleur to kill the two here if they ever showed up. They still had their reasons, eh?
"I told you not to call me instructor. Anyway, can you tell me what Ability you awakened?"
"Of course! The Old Man told me you\'ll ask me about it, but just a heads up, it\'s not a useful ability. I\'m more inclined to use my Elemental Spells than it."
But that\'s your cheat, you know? I refuse to believe that it\'s not a suitable ability for him. Hikari\'s Skillmaster could be seen as somewhat mediocre because of the restriction of using Psyche Energy but now that she borrowed my Domain of Valor, it became a really useful ability that could change a battlefield from how high it can enhance all her allies. If she found a more useful ability to borrow or steal, as long as she managed it carefully, she could become invincible.
"It\'s fine. Even my ability wasn\'t amazing at the start."
I even called it useless, but now that I\'m fully utilizing it, it became my core that everything skills I have revolved around it.
"Alright. My ability is called Illusion Eye. By using Psyche Energy, I can produce illusion through my eyes."
Huh? That sounds like Genjutsu. Is his eye evolved to become a Sh*ringgan? That\'s an overpowered ability. How can you call it not useful?
"I bet you thought about that certain anime, but no. This is all it can do."
Boris\' eyes shined in a golden light as a surge of Psyche Energy activated his ability. When the light dimmed, I could see a huge black sword hovering in front of him. Just by looking at it, no one would think it\'s an illusion produced by his eye. It looked so real that it\'s not even leaking out even a small hint of energy. If I see it from afar, I would really take it as something real.
"That\'s all it can do. Create a believable illusion of an object. I couldn\'t even create an illusion of a person."
He reached his hand towards the huge black sword, his hand effortlessly passed through its body and when it did, it created a ripple to the image which gave away that it\'s actually just an illusion.
When he pulled his hand out, the ripple stopped and it reformed to a hovering black sword.
"You can control it, right? Like, make it appear as if you\'re holding it in your hand."
"Yes. That is possible."
The illusory sword that was hovering in front of him moved and settled itself on his hands. Now, it looks like he\'s wielding an enormous sword when in fact, there\'s nothing on his hand.
I had him hold his whip at the same time and my guess is right. It managed to cover his actual weapon.
Upon realizing that, Boris thanked me. This guy never really explored that ability of his. Then it\'s possible that it\'s still at the initial level and hasn\'t been upgraded yet.
That\'s an enormous waste of a cheat.
"Also, have you upgraded that ability of yours?"
"Upgrade?"
"You mean that\'s still your initial ability?"
"I\'m sorry but I don\'t know what you\'re talking about."
His confusion looked real. He didn\'t really know about it. If that Illusion Eye upgraded, I wonder what kind of new skill it will give him. Will he be able to conjure more kinds of Illusion? Maybe if he continued upgrading it he could turn his illusions to reality, even if it only has a limited time.
"I see. Keep using that ability of yours and you\'ll see. Now before I send you back to training…"
Though he\'s still confused at least he would listen to what I told him. He probably felt that relying on the Elemental Pathway was better than using that ability which consumed another type of energy he had no idea where to get. That\'s probably the case for most of the rogue Heroes.
In any case, it\'s time to use the slot for the Supported Individuals.
[Ding!]
[Added Boris Ivanovich in the Supported Individuals]
"Eh. What\'s this? Huh? What\'s happening?!"
The sudden appearance of the system notification made Boris panicked but upon reading it, he looked at me and there\'s like an undying gratitude in his eyes as if he\'s looking at his lifelong benefactor.
"Thank you! I already have a master, so can I call you father?"
"What the hell? No. I don\'t want a son at the same age as me. You\'re a Hero from Earth and that sly Principal already instructed you to meet me, this is bound to happen. Now. What do you feel?"
Of all things he wanted to call me. Why father? Ugh.
"I feel stronger all of a sudden. I can call on the Door of Transcendence now."
"Great. Congratulations. We will now have another Transcendent in our ranks."
