My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—

When Bucky Barnes came to, he was greeted by the three Representatives he caught. For a moment, he felt threatened since he was still half asleep, but when he remembered that he actually tamed all of them, he heaved a sigh of relief.

The Lava Hydra, Lochness Monster, and Bamboo Panda were all his prized possessions, his ten years of hard work.

But sadly, now that his mission was done, it was time for him to part ways with the three of them.

"Right, I guess it's time for the three of you to meet your respective masters, huh? All right then. I guess it's about time we go back."

Fully rested, Bucky Barnes did a couple of stretches before he recalled the three Representatives. For a brief moment, he admired the scenery of the forest where the Bamboo Panda once resided. Now that he tamed the Bamboo Panda, it was time for him to leave.

The curtains to his ten-year journey had finally come to a close.

"I wonder how they'll support their disciples this time around." Bucky Barnes asked himself as he manifested a dimensional portal. As soon as he got inside, he appeared right in front of his abode.

'Wait, are you kidding me right now?!' Bucky Barnes exclaimed when he noticed the date on the clock. For some reason, he was gone for a week even though he had only been fighting the Bamboo Panda for a day.

What he didn't know was that the location of the Bamboo Panda was actually so far even when it was in a different dimension, that's why one day burned one week in their usual time. "Oi~ this is not good. We're late! Very very very late!"

Without further ado, Bucky Barnes summoned another dimensional portal that led to Earth. He needed to round up his Disciples as soon as possible.

...

Somewhere in another dimension,

The other Managers contemplated whether to train the disciples in their dimension or not. In the end, they chose to train them in another dimension so there won't be minor damage on their planet or anything of the sort.

What they chose is a simple pocket dimension by the edge of the universe. There was a single planet there that had the same terraformation as Earth, but it was a tad bit larger so the overall climate was much colder.

Dumble Dore stood in front of the Disciples who were neatly lined up in front of them. Beside him were the other Managers who also brought their Disciples with them.

This would be the chosen training ground, and the higher-ups have already decided on a training regimen, even going as far as to schedule everything to make the most of the training.

"Where's Bucky Barnes?" Dumble Dore leaned to the side, whispering at Hermione Ranger who stiffly stood while trying to act all cool in front of her Disciples. She rarely appeared in front of them, that's why she felt a bit embarrassed after seeing them up close.

"I don't know, why are you asking me?" Hermione hissed before she turned towards Hyodo Issei. "And why are all your Disciples... women?"

"Non non~ you misunderstand, Hermione Ranger-san," Hyodo shook his index finger in front of Hermione. He was wearing a confident expression on his face even though everyone expected him to say something useless. "They are women, and that's exactly why they're all my disciples."

"Right," Dumble Dore indifferently uttered. "In any case, it's been one day but Bucky Barnes still hasn't shown up. The higher-ups were merciful enough to make us wait an hour for them... but I doubt he's going to show up today."

"He will... and if he didn't, then it's still good for us. We get to rest for another hour every day."

One of the Disciples with white hair and a headband spoke as he scratched his head. His red scarlet pupils stared directly into Dumble Dore's eyes. "Hey, can't we just start the training, like right now? We need to run through the forest and back, right? And it's getting dark as well."

Some of the Disciples started nodding their heads while the others shushed the white-haired boy who spoke up.

"Ryuta Himuro-san, right? Look, the Managers are Managers, and the higher-ups are the ones who get to decide. Even if they wanted to start right now, they can't. They can't change the decisions of the higher-ups. Whatever you do, we're going t wait, so just stand there and be quiet." A girl wearing bikini armor spoke up. She had pink hair, and she screamed of femininity despite her tomboyish tone.

After she spoke, she flicked her hair as if to say that she couldn't care less about what Himuro just said.

Her name was Murasaki Nanako, and just like the white-haired guy, she was a Disciple of Hermione Ranger.

"Shut up, I didn't ask." Himuro retorted, snorting as he turned away from Nanako.

Minutes passed, and everyone grew impatient as they stood still. Anyone could've rested or sat down, but they were in competition with everyone so no one dared to take a rest.

Moreover, the Managers wanted to set an example for their Disciples. That's why they also didn't step away from where they stood. Their pride was on the line, and the heavy atmosphere caused them to grow nervous in front of their Disciples.

The sun from the horizon was beginning to come down as the hour came to a close. However, there were still no signs of Bucky Barnes anywhere.

"Right, everyone at the ready." Dumble Dore finally spoke up, much to everyone's relief. It was time for them to start the last test for the day.

"Your goal is to run through the forest, get the white flag by the end of it, and then return here. You are not going to use any of your abilities or the help of your tamed beasts. And we have Managers monitoring the entire place"

"Immediate disqualification will be meted out as soon as someone uses their ability."

"On your marks... get set..."

Fwooom~!

"..."

"..."

Before Dumble Dore could give the signal, a dimensional portal appeared in front of them.

"We're very sorry we're late!" Bucky Barnes screamed the moment he and his Disciples got out of the dimensional portal.
