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

Chapter 522 Closing Off The Invasion

?

Upon saying a blatant threat, the armored being stepped into the dimension break before it closed off, leaving Magnus Carter and his Disciples wary of an upcoming dimension break. Of course, it wouldn't happen at once, but they couldn't help but conclude that it would occur soon.

Under his breath, Magnus Carter heaved a sigh of relief, glad that the invasion was taken cared of. There were no casualties, which was the best outcome Magnus could ever wish for.

Turning around, he realized that his Disciples were still lingering in the scene, waiting for his instructions since they have nothing else to do. Their training was interrupted, and they won't be able to resume their training since much time had passed.

Or so that's what they thought.

When Magnus Carter clapped his hands to get everyone's attention, they already assumed that he'd give them some form of rest. Or better yet, they were going to get dismissed and they could enjoy the entire evening just like Horatius's group. Based on the majority of their expressions, it was clear that they already knew what Magnus Carter had in mind.

"All right then, since we still have enough time, let's have a quick test before dinner. Of course, Horatius and his teammates are still excused." Magnus Carter said, saying the exact opposite of what most of them expected.

Letting out a groan, everyone about-faced and headed back to the training area without saying another word. They didn't even bother convincing their Manager that they needed some rest. After all, they still have energy left to spare for another training session.

And also, Horatius and the others won't be there so the competition was toned down a little bit. Everyone looked forward to getting first place now that the top Disciples weren't in the frame.

"I guess that's that, huh," Horatius muttered to himself as he smiled at Satoshi and the others. "Then again... what are we going to do about this?"

Even though they were given the freedom to do whatever they liked during their free time, the entire residence was blasted to total destruction. Even if they were to take a break, they won't be able to relax due to how dilapidated everything looked.

"What perfect timing, right?" Satoshi flashed a smile at everyone since he already decided on what to do.

"Satoshi, just leave it. We can just go someplace else and eat." Horatius's lips slightly curved upward since he could already tell what Satoshi had in mind. There was no way he'd be willing to help with the restoration of the entire residence.

"But... it wouldn't take that long," Lucy promised, somewhat on the same wavelength as Horatius and Satoshi. "With my Golden Pen, we can fix everything as it once was. Then again, I won't be able to fix everything so I'll be leaving some of them to you."

"Ou, leave it to me. It wouldn't sit well with me to enjoy while everything looked like this." Satoshi reasoned out, nodding his head along with Lucy's comment.

"That settles it. Let's work on bringing back the residence before we eat!"

"Osu~!"

...

An hour later.

The reclamation of the entire territory was successful. And Satoshi's group managed to fix the entire place and restore it to how it once was. They were slightly exhausted, but it was light work that gave them an appetite.

"With that, we're done right?" Leif asked. Thanks to him who did most of the heavy lifting withhis barrier.

Lucy worked on 'gluing' everything back together. And then Horatius and Finana dealt with the clean up. Their water superpower really pulled their weight.

"Not yet, we're missing the final step." Satoshi called out, telling the Orb Oboros to open up his dimension and transfer all the koi fishes out of there. With the newly-repaired ponds filled with the usual koi fishes, they could finally relax and enjoy their much-needed break.

"Here, Satoshi," Lucy casually offered, handing Satoshi a candy bar.

The gesture surprised Satoshi, but he accepted it anyways, muttering a soft thank you as he looked at the name of the chocolate. "Katkit? What kind of fraudulent bar is thi—" Before he could continue his monologue, Lucy explained why she handed Satoshi a chocolate.

"In our dimension, we eat this whenever we take a break. 'Have a break? Have a Katkit.' It's a famous line in our world." Lucy said, implying that the chocolate bar didn't mean anything at all, she simply handed it to Satoshi since they were going to take a break.

Then again, she only handed one to Satoshi and the rest didn't receive any. Her actions were definitely suspicious but Satoshi didn't question any of it. Instead, he ate the chocolate bar with gusto, a nice appetizer before they eat their early dinner together.

Once again, Lucy and Satoshi went to their temporary abode to check if anything was amiss. To their relief, it looked the same before the red monsters destroyed it. Satoshi even made sure that the koi fishes in their pond were the same.

"Soooo~ what are we getting for snacks and dinner later!" Horatius asked. His face lit up when he asked the question, which meant that he was bound to suggest hamburg steak once again... which was already expected on the menu.

"Let's have french fries and flavored chicken for snacks! And then for dinner... I have an idea!" Lucy said, grinning from ear to ear. Clearly, she had something planned in mind.

"Ou, we'll leave it to you," Horatius said even though he already ordered hamburg steaks. "If you need mints, just tell us."

Nodding her head, Lucy went inside the house with a skip in her steps, confident that her plans would be enjoyable for everyone. Of course, why would it be when it was one of the traditions they had in their hometown?

With Lucy planning the entire dinner, Satoshi and the others ordered some snacks and set up the grill once again. They thought about what to do over the course of the entire afternoon. In the end, they decided to treat it like a sleepover. It was supposed to be their rest time, so things like ousama game, spin the bottle, and classic twister was played.

During that time, the Disciples just finished their additional training and as soon as they entered the residence, they were surprised by two things. One, that the residence was actually repaired and it felt like the dimension break was nothing but a dream. Two, they could hear giggles and laughter coming from the residence where Lucy and Satoshi were supposed to stay temporarily.

Curious as to why they were chuckling their laughs out, some of the Disciples decided to sneak a peek. Just in time, the group was actually playing a mad game of classic twister. Of course, no superpowers were allowed so their body were pushed to the limits.

It came as a surprise when they saw just how flexible Satoshi was, but no one spoke about it.

From a distance, Magnus Carter chuckled as well. After all, Horatius and his team go out of their way to fix the entire place so everyone would be able to relax after their training, even though he didn't specifically ask them to do so.

"They deserve the rest. I should leave them be." Magnus said to himself, ordering a couple of things for the group to further their enjoyment. Of course, he couldn't just treat them and not do anything for his other Disciples. In the end, Magnus sent everyone a box of rewards which contained a pricey dinner for all of them.

And even when he decided to remain anonymous, his Disciples immediately knew that he was the one who sent the rewards.

Nighttime came and it was finally Lucy's time to shine. While they were enjoying the entire afternoon together, Lucy actually ordered something and two boxes arrived at their doorstep. Lucy was adamant about anyone opening them and she kept them inside the abode, not wanting to open them until dinnertime.

"Finally," Satoshi exclaimed, still hyped about the series of games they played during the afternoon.

With a grin, Lucy brought out the boxes and set it in the middle of the yard. When she opened a box, she immediately grabbed the pack of skewers inside and set it on the grill, cooking it alongside the hamburg patties that Horatius already prepared.

As for the second box, it actually contained fireworks, much to their surprise.

A couple of minutes later, the group was already gathered around, playing with sparklers as they enjoyed their time together. One wouldn't believe that they just survive a dimension break together, due to how much they relished each other's company.

"I set up the big ones!" Horatius called out, just when fireworks started shooting up the sky.

This time, the entire dimension enjoyed the night, indulging in an expensive dinner while they watched the fireworks from afar. It was a fitting ending to a calamity that is the dimension break, and Magnus Carter wouldn't have asked for more.
