My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—-Chapter 466 Bamboo Panda, Lava Hydra, And Lochness Monster
In every dimension, there were hundreds if not thousands of Managers all overseeing their universes, taking care of their universe and monitoring it to avoid its inevitable end. They weren't omnipotent, but most of them are more powerful than a regular human on average.
Universe 31 and Universe 69 had already fallen, and their Managers were removed from their posts since they were incapable. And now, Universe 1 is at risk of being deleted. While they survived the first wave of the World Eater, the second wave was bound to come. There was no way that Universe 1 could get out of the inevitable predicament.
During the first wave, Universe 1 fought with everything they've got, and it resulted in their victory. However, every race died because of that, and only Earth was left with inhabitants. Now, with the upcoming second wave of the World Eater's invasion, they were bound to lose.
Fortunately, the Managers assigned to Universe 1 had gathered strong superhumans across the dimensions, and they were tasked with saving Universe 1 from utter destruction.
There were only three months left before the World Eater completely revived, but it was already sending scouts to Universe 1 to prepare for its onslaught. With the scouts appearing on the scene, the Managers knew all too well that the attack was really about to transpire.
As such, the Managers sought to prepare for the invasion, each going their own way since all of them had different views about preparing. Hermione Ranger went about gathering new tamed beasts and skills for her disciples. As for Hyodo Issei, he gathered a couple of beautiful humanoid beasts that were sure to inspire his disciples. Dumble Dore hunted for magical beasts for his disciples.
Then there was Bucky Barnes, who went out of his way to do what he could for his disciples. This was one of the rare moments where they could directly support their disciples. Of course, he'd try to do what he could to help his disciples as much as he could.
Unlike the other Managers, Bucky Barnes treat his disciples as if they were his children, and he wanted to give them as much edge as possible. He also doesn't choose his disciples willy-nilly. He would choose them and scrutinize them as much as he could just to make sure that he had chosen the right disciple.
The incident between Jana and Jonathan was something that he didn't want to repeat, and that's why he became even more careful this time.
Currently, he had three disciples since the incident between Jana and Jonathan killed all of his disciples including Jana. It was a great tragedy, but now he treasured the three disciples he had left— Jonathan, Satoshi, and Yun Zhe.
While the others were scurrying to give their disciples more tamed beasts and rewards, Bucky Barnes had not given his three disciples a single cent. For the past ten years, he had been hunting Representatives, trying to tame them so he could bestow the ultimate gift a Manager could give.
...
Twelve hours later,
"Now, let's finish this." Bucky Barnes was sweating, and he felt so exhausted. Well, he wasn't the one fighting but he had been barking orders nonstop at the Lava Hydra and the Lochness Monster. If it weren't for him, the two Representatives would've already been defeated by the Bamboo Panda.
Together, the two Representatives wouldn't have been able to work together if it weren't for Bucky Barnes's specific instructions.
The Bamboo Panda charged another solar beam, but it didn't work out so it approached the Lochness Monster before swiping his claws at it.
"Lava Hydra, flamethrower! Don't let the Bamboo Panda get near your ally!"
Kruooogh~!
Since the Bamboo Panda was getting rather desperate (it was already twelve hours, after all), it didn't bother with the Lava Hydra, and it continued charging at the Lochness Monster.
Scratch~!
The Bamboo Panda managed to land a hit, and since the Bamboo Panda had an effective advantage over the Lochness Monster (Grass type against a Water type), the Lochness Monster was one-hit knocked out by the Bamboo Panda.
In return, the Lava Hydra landed a clean flamethrower on the Bamboo Panda. Coupled with exhaustion, the Bamboo Panda fainted, but not before taking down the Lochness Monster with him.
With a resounding roar, the Lava Hydra was the last Representative standing. Bucky Barnes didn't waste any time throwing a Gren at the Bamboo Panda. Now that it fainted, he could most certainly capture it.
Ting. Ting.
Poof~!
Bucky Barnes's eyes sparkled as he imagined the background music playing in the area. There was a skip in his steps as he walked towards the Gren that stopped shaking. He had successfully caught the Bamboo Panda.
"I caught the Bamboo Panda!" Bucky Barnes childishly exclaimed as he raised the Gren at the top of his head.
That's when he felt his vision blurring out and dizziness struck him. He was so exhausted that he fell to the ground, his body giving up before the mind. "Seems like I overextended myself, hahhaha~ but then again, at least my job is done here." Bucky Barnes continued as his consciousness slipped away. Before he completely passed out, however, he let the Bamboo Panda out so he could guard the vicinity while he slept.
At last, after ten long years of hunting down Representatives and gathering information for them. He finally achieved what he sought to do. He had caught three elusive Representatives, and they were going to fall into the hands of his three disciples.
It was an achievement that not anyone would've stuck to had they known that it would take ten years. But Bucky Barnes kept at it despite the ridiculous amount of effort he had to put in. More than anything, he wanted to at least give his disciples the edge over other disciples...
... And more than anything, give them a fighting chance against the World Eater.
"Now... it's time. Mission accomplished." Bucky Barnes weakly uttered before he passed out.
