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



In the Beast Dimension,

Amy (Satoshi's Familiar, Copycat) sat on top of a huge boulder as he watched White Lion and Sain going at it as usual. They were pretty much on equal terms whenever they fought, so no one cheered for one side or the other.

"I wonder if Master is doing all right." She heaved a sigh, leaning on her knees while she watched the White Lion and Sain fight. There was nothing she could do at the moment so she decided to loaf around while waiting for Satoshi to call out to her.

Even though she could check up on Satoshi from time to time, she didn't do it. After all, it might disturb him. Or he might be in a crucial situation and her going out would just interrupt him.

"Of course, he's all right. I can feel it." Gabriel walked toward Amy, clenching his fist before he sat beside him. "See that? That's my summon, the phoenix. He seems relaxed, right? That means our master is doing fine."

Gabriel may seem like a normal person, but he's actually a monster from a Gate, an incarnation of the formidable summoner that once existed in time's past. Then again, the way he moved didn't seem like a normal person at all since he floats around most of the time.

A sudden chill went up and down their spine as another figure walked towards them. She was pure white, and her skin was made of icy glass. Two bears stood beside her as she assumed her position near Amy and Gabriel.

"Our master may be all right at the moment... but he might face danger in a snap of a finger. Right now, we have to prepare  for that moment." The Ice Empress spoke, frost coming out of her lips whenever she breathed.

"You talking about Satoshi, right?" A huge beast popped out of nowhere, flapping her wings as she lightly descended near the boulder where Amy was seated. She was none other than Ryu Ryoko, the Black Winged Dragon.

"Yeah,"

"He's all right. Although he seemed pretty tired. I'll check on him later." Ryu Ryoko casually said as she shifted into her dragon form once again before flying away. She didn't want anyone to notice that she was worried for Satoshi because that would cause everyone to worry as well.

It was thanks to Orb Oboros that they could stay in the beast dimension since he was the one who could transport them into this space and bring them back. He could also easily create his own spatial dimension as well, and some of Satoshi's tamed beasts stay there whenever they feel like it.

From a distance, Stat (the Statue of Captivity) stood perfectly still, watching over everyone while he also awaited Satoshi's orders. The other tamed beasts find his existence a bit mysterious, probably because they had no idea what kind of powers he has. And to be fair, Satoshi rarely calls out to him despite him being a Representative.

...

The dorms were actually monumental in size, even larger compared to the United Superheroes Academy. As Nanako stated, there were two wings and a common area which was pretty spacious as well.

From a distance, the group saw the dorms looming up ahead, right by the edge of the forest. Everything in the dorm, from the walls to the roof, was comprised of bricks, even the fence that lined up the vicinity was made up of bricks as well. It certainly had a medieval style to it despite the fact that it was five stories tall.

A metallic gate towered right by the entrance of the dorm. Nanako explained that it opens automatically. It wouldn't have been easy opening such a huge gate with physical strength alone.

"Random question!" Jonathan blurted out of nowhere, raising his hand as if he was interrupting a class or something. "On this planet... are there other inhabitants as well? Just curious since this planet didn't seem lifeless or something."

"Yeah, apparently there are people living here. We're in the middle of the forest though so we haven't encountered a local just yet." Himuro answered. "I'm a bit curious about them though, since I've never met one. Maybe they look like regular humans... or maybe they look like aliens... who knows?"

The premise of locals living nearby was actually a pretty interesting topic. Even Satoshi and Yun Zhe became invested in it, wondering what they look like when they meet them.

"Oh, you've arrived. Why didn't you use your superpower on your way back?" Their thoughts were interrupted by Dumble Dore who was standing by the front gate of the dorm. Somehow, he made it from the test area to here in an instant. Then again, he used his superpower instead of going all the way without activating any of his skills.

His obvious statement actually made a lot of sense, and the group started questioning themselves since they didn't even think about using their abilities. The test was already over, and yet it was still imprinted in their minds that they couldn't use any of their abilities. As such, it took them two hours to get to the dorms.I think you should take a look at

"Right! Why didn't we do that?!" Himuro screamed. Just like everyone else, he just realized that they could've easily gotten to the dorms by using their superpower.

"Right... interesting," Jonathan muttered to himself. He was also fooled, but it wasn't that embarrassing since everyone else was fooled as well.

"All right, you can all head back to the dorms. You have until midnight before lights out so you can enjoy the amenities of the dorms." Dumble Dore smiled.

At the end of the day,  he still had no idea how strong Jonathan, Satoshi, and Yun Zhe were. They weren't able to go all out during the challenge after all, so their strength and superpowers were still a mystery to a couple of Managers. Then again, there were a lot of Managers who'd been monitoring Satoshi for quite some time now. That's why they more or less know Satoshi's strengths. Some of them had a vague idea of how physically formidable Satoshi was. Then again, they have no idea what his limits were.

"Amenities? Like the bathroom?" Jonathan asked out of the blue, causing everyone to spit out as they laughed out loud.

"You can go in. You don't want to be out here without supervision. The beasts are pretty deadly around these parts after all." Dumble Dore said, giving a sinister smile as everyone entered the dorms.

"Ah yes, we forgot to tell them about the amenities. We have pretty much everything in there— gym, swimming pool, onsen, sauna, massage shop... everything."

"They have billiards too? And a game center?" Jonathan asked.

Somehow, the others found it weird that Jonathan knew about billiards and the game center when he had no idea what amenities meant.

"No, that won't help us at all with our training so they don't have it here. In any case. The two of us are heading into the snack bar. You guys do your thing and we can meet in our room in half an hour or something." Mitsuka told them.

"Sweet, we can go to the sauna and see who can endure the longest!" Himuro challenged. The trio accepted the outright challenge since they couldn't back down as men.

"Fine by me. I guess we have half an hour. Let's clock it up to maximum heat, and then let's see who lasts the longest. ALSO! No using any abilities or superpowers. I'm sure our sense enhancements were all heightened to the point where we can detect someone's energy, right?" Himuro asked.

The trio nodded.

"Well then, I guess we'll part ways here. You can go have your contest or whatever. As for the two of us, we'll prepare the food and drinks." Mitsuka called out.

"Enjoy," Nanako greeted as the girls and boys parted ways.

When the girls were out of sight, the four of them suddenly put their hands on their knees while they breathed heavily. As it turned out, the four of them were just trying to act tough in front of them. They were actually more exhausted than usual since they had to fight the other Disciples. "The ladies pretty much  stood idly by while they were breaking bones and muscles together."

"So that's why you wanted to go to the sauna." Satoshi forced a smile, now that Himuro's intent was now as clear as day.

"We'll reset our exhaustion over at the sauna. I guess this would be an everyday thing now so we won't have to worry about soreness the next day." Himuro explained. "Then again, the contest still holds. We'll see who could endure the sauna the longest. To start with, how does ninety degrees Celsius sound?"

"Easy peasy, we can start at a hundred no sweat," Yun Zhe challenged, smiling as he puffed his chest with utmost confidence.

"Then let's go. We can think up of a punishment for the loser later." Himuro continued.
