My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—-Chapter 515 Cavalry Test!
Meanwhile on Earth,
After making a report to the Hero Association in America, Star Spangled then informed Mi Hermano of what he saw from afar. He briefly described the unknown entity in space, dangerously closing in on Earth.
"Now that explains why there were fewer and fewer incidents these past few weeks. To think that another invasion is bound to take place." Star Spangled clicked his tongue, once again turning to Mi Hermano so he could advise him on what to do.
Since Star Spangled was behind schedule, he left Mi Hermano with the job of informing the other superheroes in America to prepare for an all-out war. At that moment, they still didn't want to inform the entire world since it might stir a global panic. However, they had to slowly leak the information so as to fully prepare for the war.
"We'd have to inform Fury about this as well. Leave it to me." Mi Hermano suggested, puffing his chest as Star Spangled walked out of his agency. While Star Spangled's visit was a cause for celebration, it brought about bad tidings so there was no time for the agency to celebrate.
"Please, I'll leave that matter to you." Star Spangled saluted before walking out of there. Now it was time for him to prepare for the upcoming war as well. "I'll inform them soon. For now, I have to take care of a couple of things."

Disciples Training Camp,
As usual, Satoshi's group gathered once again since it was already lunch time. Lately, they found themselves sticking close to each other even though they were of different Managers. It was most probably because of their connection to Satoshi and how they survived the three-day test. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭．𝑛𝘦𝘵
Before, they didn't even know each other. But now, they were as inseparable as close friends. There were only nine of them at the moment though, since Lucy and Satoshi weren't around.
"I heard that the next test would be a tournament-type. We're going to fight each other or something like that." Himuro whispered to everyone. Apparently, this was just his assumption since he overheard the Managers talking about it.
"Really? Is it going to be like... free-for-all or are we fighting one on one?" Jonathan asked as he scooted closer to Himuro.
"I have no idea. We have to prepare though." HImuro responded. "In any case, do you think Lucy and Satoshi would join us or not?"
"I think not. If Satoshi did, then there's no way we'd win. He'd just win the whole thing or something." Yun Zhe said. "It would be better if they set up restrictions on everyone, that way we could have an even ground of fighting. For example, if we could only use one tamed beast or something."
"Yeah, that would actually even things out. However, it wouldn't' be fair since not all of us have Representatives." Mitsuka explained. "I think less than ten percent of Disciples have Representatives. Of course, I don't have one." Mitsuka continued.
"I don't have one either." Nanako admittedly said. "How about you?"
Bruce and Larry also shook their heads. They do have powerful legendary tamed beasts, but they never encountered a Representative.
"Really? All of you don't have?" Jonathan couldn't believe it. He assumed that everyone else had Representatives since all of them under the management of Bucky Barnes had Representatives.
Then again, Bucky Barnes worked his rear side off trying to collect Representative for ten years just so he could give them to his worthy Disciples. As fate would have it, he was able to gather three Disciples at the end, a fitting number with the same amount of Representatives he gathered.
Before they arrived at the training camp, Bucky Barnes had actually given each of them their Representatives. He did allow them to pick which one they liked and they all picked a different Representative.
Although they have such an overpowered trump card under their belt, Jonathan, Satoshi, and Yun Zhe still didn't use their new Representatives, just because they still weren't sure about them.
Satoshi made a mental note in his head that he'd use it in the near future though, but right now was not the most optimal time yet so he still kept it hidden in its Gren. Even his other familiars had no idea that he's got another Representative with him.
"Well, let's just do this properly. Satoshi or no Satoshi, we have to pass the next tests with flying colors." Yun Zhe clenched the cup in his hand, raising it up in front of everyone. "Cheers to our team." He said while rubbing his nose.
Himuro and the others also raised their hands in unison. It may just be another test, but to them, it was a way in which they could prove themselves. After all, they were worthy enough to survive the three-day survival test. It was up to them whether they lived up to the others' expectations or not.
....
Magnus Carter's Dimension,
"Now that we've proven Satoshi's unique trait, well... what do we do next exactly?" Horatius felt like they were missing the point of the series of tests they gave Satoshi.
"At least we could now explain why he could easily carry eight tonnes of weight. I'm sure Satoshi would've wanted to know the inner workings of his body, right?" Finana enthusiastically said.
What they were bound to about it didn't matter, at the very least Satoshi now knew why his body was weird that way.
"Still, I can't believe that something like the Golden Refinement Body actually exists in different dimensions. I guess our dimension was one of the lucky ones since we have recorded instances of it." Horatius commented.
"Yeah, it's pretty powerful, but it wasn't that convenient. After all, it needs some time to adapt to the environment, right? That means most attacks would still be effective on you. That probably explains why you could still bleed despite your unique trait." Horatius continued his monologue as everyone intently listened.
He was right on the money. Even though Satoshi had the Golden Refinement Body, he could still suffer serious injuries from powerful attacks, provided that his body couldn't adapt to it in time.
A great example of this is how Satoshi could hypothetically survive the full blast of the sun if he were to approach it from afar. But if he were powerlessly exposed to it in an instant, then he'd get incinerated before he even realized what was going on.
Just when they ran out of topics to talk about, the voice of Magnus Carter announced the commencement of the next test for the day. Apparently, they had to gather in the same place where the marathon was held.
"I guess that's our signal. Let's go, we have another test to conquer." Horatius cheered as the four of them walked out of their place.
The lingering scent of barbecue encompassed the vicinity as they left. Just like usual, they gathered around the same place where the first test was held. It was a little before noon time, so the sun was almost at its crux, bringing with it the somewhat unbearable heat.
Fortunately, it was a windy day with clouds littered in the sky. Some of the Disciples thought that running a marathon under this weather would be nigh impossible if they didn't use any of their superpowers.
From afar, Satoshi and his group saw the gathering of bullies who were picking on one guy earlier on. When they saw Satoshi, walking up the crowd, they clicked their tongues together as they expressed their frustration.
Then again, they were well aware that causing trouble right when Magnus Carter was there would be problematic. That's why they distanced themselves from Satoshi instead of riling him up as per their usual behavior.
Additionally, they could always sabotage their records by messing with them during the test so that's another, safer option as well.
"Don't mind them, Satoshi. They're always up to no good, the lot of them." Horatius whispered at Satoshi while glaring at the group of bullies. Like the others, he didn't want to involve himself with the bullies, but now that Satoshi was on their side, he knew that he could at least reject their ideals.
Just then, Magnus Carter appeared in front of everyone, ready to announce the next test. "Today, we'll have a different test. And since we have special guests for today, I concocted a brand new test that would put both your teamwork and your superpower utilization to the limits!"
Everyone stopped short as a deafening silence befell the entire crowd. Right as Magnus Carter paused, the anticipation welled up within the Disciples who were looking forward to the next test.
"For this test! You're going to be teaming up by five, and we're going to have a no-holds-barred, cavalry elimination test!" Magnus Carter excitedly raised his voice.
"Whoa! A usual event in a usual school festival! This is going to be fun!" Horatius pumped a fist in the air. "Then again, we're missing one member since there are only four of us... hmmm..."
"Um... excuse me?" Someone suddenly spoke behind the four of them, causing them to flinch before they simultaneously turned around.
