My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—
Chapter 427 Erasure Of Worlds
"It was your dimension... roughly six thousand years ago." Bucky Barnes continued.
A couple of seconds passed before Satoshi was able to internalize what Bucky Barnes just told him. His eyes widened in utter amazement as he stood up, slamming his palms on the table. The sheer force rattled the plates and utensils, and Bucky Barnes almost jumped out of his seat upon witnessing Satoshi's surprised reaction.
"What?! So all these dimensions didn't stand a chance against the World Eater... and you're telling me that prehistoric Earth managed to drive off these invaders?! How on Earth? They don't even have guns yet back then!"
Chuckling, Bucky Barnes relaxed in his seat, amused by Satoshi's reaction. "Of course, they didn't have guns yet. And it wasn't just Earth who drove off the World Eater. It's your entire dimension." Bucky Barnes continued.
"I see, that makes sense," Satoshi muttered to himself as he got another helping of toast, bacon, and sunny-side-up eggs. Before he could take another mouthful, however, he turned towards Bucky Barnes for the second time with the pupils of his eyes dilated.
"Wait... how did you know about this? Were you alive since then? Wow..."
It didn't take long before Jonathan and Yun Zhe entered the house for the second time. Their gazes portrayed that they had gotten over their previous bad blood. No one spoke as they returned to their seats, and this gave Satoshi the opportunity to update them on what he and Bucky Barnes were talking about while they were gone.
"And to answer Satoshi's question, no, I wasn't alive back then. I'm not that old, you know." Bucky Barnes calmly responded as the trio looked at him in disbelief.
"Then, how did you know about that event? How did you know that our dimension really did drive off the World Eater?" Satoshi incredulously asked. Somehow, Bucky Barnes was hiding something and they badly wanted to know what it was.
"Of course, I knew about it through the historical records. You do have historical records on Earth as well, right? It's not like we don't have them here in our dimension." Bucky Barnes explained.
"Then... that means... we just need to take a look at those records and we'd be able to drive the World Eater a second time." Satoshi excitedly said. "No, we can even plan ahead and get rid of the World Eater once and for all. I'm sure that once we find his weakness, we'd be able to defeat him."
"Oh, now we're getting somewhere." Yun Zhe continued, redirecting his stare at Bucky Barnes as if to imply that he get those historical records so they could take a look at them.
"Yeah, now we just need those records and then we can formulate a plan with all the other Disciples." Jonathan also agreed.
Bucky Barnes let out a sigh before he stood up. "Well, if you want the records that badly, I'd gladly give them to you... but just so you know, it won't help you with anything."
Without saying another word, Bucky Barnes excused himself for a couple of minutes before he headed outside. Meanwhile, Jonathan, Satoshi and Yun Zhe stared at each other while they contemplated on Bucky Barnes's words. Surely he didn't mean the last words he said. There was no way that the historical records won't benefit them at all.
"..."
"..."
"So... um... how was the situation with, you know, Jana's murder and all?" Satoshi brought up since the two of them seemed to avoid the topic.
"It's all water under the bridge. Although... I still don't stand with Jonathan's method, I've decided to forgive and forget." Yun Zhe let out a simple answer.
"You don't have to say it. I don't condone my actions either. It's just that, I didn't have that much of a choice back then." Jonathan let out, heaving a sigh.
A couple of minutes later, Bucky Barnes came back, balancing a thick book in his hands. Judging from the amount of dust that had accumulated on its covers, the three of them could tell that it had been a long time since the Managers took a peek inside.
"Here it is. Once you've scanned through the entire record, you'll know what I mean when I said those words." Heaving yet another sigh, Bucky Barns chucked the heavy book at Satoshi.
Upon catching it, Satoshi immediately scanned through the records. It didn't take long before he saw the entry where the World Eater tried to destroy their dimension, and he started reading everything. Jonathan and Yun Zhe joined in on the reading session, and together, the three of them learned a couple of information regarding the World Eater.
As it turned out, the World Eater is the most powerful entity across dimensions. If it had access to the dimensions where the Managers reside, then it could easily destroy that place in a matter of minutes. Ever since time immemorial, it had been swallowing up dimensions, feeding off of their energy as it continued to grow stronger. It was an unstoppable force, a literal force of nature that swallows everything in its way.
However, one dimension didn't succumb to its curse. As written in the book, their dimension really did stand up against the World Eater. Their dimension, called the Alpha Dimension, was filled with inhabited planets, and these inhabitants all rose up together and formed an alliance to defeat the World Eater.
The D-Day came, and the entire Alpha Dimension fought against the World Dimension to the bitter end... In the end, with the help of all the inhabitants, they won... but at what cost?
Every inhabited planet in the Alpha Dimension died, and only one was left alive. Out of the hundreds of thousands of planets that existed in the Alpha Dimension, out of the innumerable inhabitants that filled the Alpha Dimension, only one planet survived.
The Alpha Dimension did survive the onslaught, but at what cost?
Dumbfounded, Jonathan, Satoshi, and Yun Zhe closed the book. Everyone died, and only Earth was left.
And now the World Eater is back for vengeance, and there was no way they could ever hope to stand against him.
