The World's most Overpowered Side-Character

"Jen, may I enter?" Chey stood at the entrance of her daughter's door politely, knocking and announcing herself.

In response Jenifer stood from her seat by the window and raised her hand to her chest, standing at attention with a salute.

"Captain, I meant to visit you sooner to thank you for saving my... life!" Jenifer yelped when Chey closed behind herself and tackled her in a hug almost falling over. "Mother-"

"You are the toughest woman I have ever seen in all my life." Chey broke down, almost crying as she held her shorter daughter by her cheeks and pressed her head against her bosom.

"What are you talking about?"

"To survive for any amount of time against that monster is praiseworthy, how you managed to overcome your fears while facing him is beyond me, as a captain I have never faced anything more terrifying, he is-"

"I didn't survive, Mom," Jenifer admitted with a small smile, sitting by her seat at the window and smiling at the twin suns once more.

"He let me live, at any point, he could have killed me but he wanted answers and I wouldn't give up, not like I did before, not that easily, I went into a rage and just kept fighting him because I knew if anyone would come it would be you, I counted on your arrival, and while I'm not sure how you did it, I'm grateful that you did."

"I declared my uselessness to the Emporium in exchange for your life." Chey sat opposite her by the table and sighed, looking out as well.

"He gave me a choice, and I chose the one that ensured your life would be saved; honestly it doesn't matter what others say or think, I never wanted you to join this army in the first place, being something like a doctor better suited you but you were stubborn like myself and fought your way to the top just like I did when I was your age."

"They won't win," Jenifer abruptly ended the cosy atmosphere between the two of them. "They may come close, but I do not see a version of this fight where the 3795th wins that fight, all those lives will be lost in vain."

"What could possibly make you think like that, even if he was holding back do not downplay your skills, Jenifer, you managed to hold your own for days against him -"

"Because that was his will, I didn't stand a chance, I held out because he allowed me to, I'm alive because he willed it that way, Mother, the Godslayer is a whole different breed compared to the others like him, he is an apex, fighting him is a mistake, the Emporium will be destroyed if they make a true enemy out of him," She looked at Chey seriously. "He is unfathomable."

"Jenifer, I have never seen you like this before, but I am sure you're just shaken up because of-"

"No, this isn't some kind of trauma or any other bullshit like that, I'm being serious here, Mom, if there's one thing I learned while facing him, it's that he is greater than any threat ever faced in our entire history, forget about the Godslayers of the past, what he is; is more, we have never seen a Godslayer strong enough to put out an entire galaxy as casually as he did with the 79th Captain, we have never seen another Godslayer powerful enough to go anywhere within their collective as fast or as freely as he does, Godslayers aren't supposed to be capable of doing anything he's doing as casually as he does, I hate to sound so praising of the enemy but he is far too powerful, why do we think aggravating a sleeping apocalypse is a good idea ?"

"For the Glory of the Emporium," Chey answered seriously while simultaneously tapping the desk silently in code. "Jenifer, you are shaken up from your experience, it hasn't even been a week yet, you should get some rest." She left Jenifer to her thoughts and exited the room while her daughter thought of the message she had tapped out.

[I don't know what happened to you over there, but don't talk like this to anyone else, you could be executed for collusion, and never repeat what you just said to me outside of this room, you are being monitored and assessed as a threat to Emporium security]

"Will she be of any use?" Jenifer relaxed in her seat and sighed. "I would rather not lose my mother in the future collapse of the Emporium but she can be an extremely stubborn woman, I beg your patience, Sir."

"Whether she's useful or not remains to be seen, if you want to save her you're gonna have to do so on your own, because after knowing all you know and having access to the Emporium archives I'm bleeding from the inside, anyone who attacks me will be faced with death regardless of their familial ties with anyone else I know," Sol answered, staring at the void before him when it started cracking open.

"I understand, I'm being monitored but I'll do whatever you ask of me from my end, and I'll slowly work my way into her head."

"Good." Sol cut the feed and looked behind himself at Dr'ul and the others as they prepared for battle. "There's no turning back after they scan your bodies, once they do your mana will be locked into their database which has no deletion function, you will be tracked anywhere you go, so there's no choice but to kill them all and destroy their on-board data banks," he stated.

"Fine by me." Renia's body was shrouded in black and crimson chaos magic, and her appearance became a tad grotesque as she enveloped herself in chaos, along with her, S'mael underwent a similar transformation, while Adonai summoned a staff with an ouroboros sigil glowing above it and Dr'ul simply summoned her sword.

The singular breach from before multiplied into thousands, and each breach began spitting out dozens of ships spanning across the expanse of an entire galaxy, within the breath of a few seconds the entire fleet was before them, and leading this massive fleet was an even greater ship several times larger than the ones around itself, it alone was the size of a star; a size that made no sense in and of itself, traversal through this unfathomable vessel was done entirely by teleportation.

"He has allies?" One captain close to the general asked, fixing the gloves on his hand as he prepared to depart, along with him the other eight captains were in the process of double-checking their suits.

"It doesn't matter if he has an army or a baby on his back; we have an armada with the sole purpose of taking him down, those allies can't save him, he's already a dead man walking." The general scoffed and fixed his earpiece. "Initiate the shield array and attack them simultaneously, overwhelm them with force and numbers and prepare Project: PowerPoint.

[Affirmative]

"This is a bit intimidating." Adonai stared from his left to his right, above and below, they were surrounded from every conceivable angle, but also quite strange."

"Strange?" Sol asked.

"Yes, these vessels are all perfectly aligned around us the flawless form is reminiscent of a great sphere.

"They intend to isolate the fight and prevent us from making any exits." S'mael scoffed. "Useless tactics of enemies already dead, I will blow them all to smithereens!" He leapt from one bare foot to the other on an invisible platform and then disappeared from next to Adonai.

"Watch each other's backs, and remember, they're still human at core, as long as their suits don't heal them they'll die from any fatal wound you're free to let loose and wreak havoc," Sol looked around at Dr'ul before he vanished in a flash of gold.

"The barrier is 70% completed General!" His pilot called from behind him. "They don't seem to have noticed it yet.

"Keep monitoring them-"

*Boom*

The entire cockpit was engulfed in black-and-white fire and the dashboards all started melting while the crew retreated from their posts and activated their battlesuits when the screen before them was torn open and S'mael came rolling in with laughter as his black-and-white cosmic flames burnt everything they touched

"The strongest, give me the strongest, I will kill him, I will bleed him, I will destroy him!" The god of destruction cackled maniacally whilst waving his hands menacingly, but to his surprise and disappointment aside from a few of the crew, the several thousand people in the cockpit didn't even budge after he entered.

"There are strong Vatui readings coming from this one..." The fifth-ranked captain crackled her knuckles after throwing down a beeping device and grinned at S'mael. "They are all Vatui, this entire collective is likely crawling with them, no wonder the Godslayer is so powerful." She laughed. "General, allow me to-"

"What the fuck does Vatui mean?" S'mael asked with his brow raised.

"I was told that there was a coming invasion, so I came to destroy, fuck your Vatui nonsense, I am a god, I am the god of destruction!" S'mael gave them all a reason to retreat when cosmic rays of light and lightning started erupting from his body, tearing the cockpit areas asunder as his mana disintegrated everything that it touched.

"Ha-ha-ha-ha! Come, give me a fight, all of you invading bastards, you are free to come at me, I will destroy you all one after the other -or all at once!"

"Give this old god a real fight!"
