"You mentioned that we have been chosen, but who exactly? Me or Maki?" I asked the Enlightened Ones.
"Master, while Maki may be a genius and talented, we have determined that you are the one worthy of possessing the power to control androids and the system. You are the individual we have been searching for," they replied.
Feeling awkward and surprised, I "To be called a genius by such esteemed scientists, I am grateful to be alive." Maki responded and also excited to hear about their recognition of my abilities.
"Are these scientists well known?" I asked.
"No, to be precise, there is no record of them," Maki responded.
Confused, I inquired, "Then how do you know they are famous?"
"This 3D technology is not something that can be easily created. Additionally, this bunker was used in World War II. This indicates that they were already in power for our next era, but have been buried here for centuries," Maki explained.
"I see. So, you are the Enlightened Ones?" I asked.
"You may refer to us by any name you choose, Master," they responded.
"How about 'Twilight'?" I suggested.
"If that is the name you have chosen for us, we shall accept it gladly," they replied.
"Okay, Twilight, can you tell me about the history of this bunker?" I asked. Maki whispered to me that she had no interest in the history of the bunker, but instead wanted to explore its technology, and then excused herself.
The 3D program began to explain, "As you may know, this bunker was built during World War II. We were assigned by the government to study advanced science and technology, but we discovered something that could change the world - the dimensional time rift."
"A dimensional time rift?" I asked.
"It refers to a hypothetical phenomenon where time and space are distorted to such an extent that a person or object can pass from one dimension to another," they explained.
"that means..?" I asked.
"it's a teleportation device that connects to another dimension that nobody knows about. But one thing is certain - this dimensional time rift is the reason why a powerful force like us was defeated. A force from the dimension sent something that we cannot explain, and in one night, we, the Enlightened Ones, were destroyed," they explained.
"How did it happen?" I asked.
"Unfortunately, we do not know," they responded.
"That's a shame. Does this mean it's dangerous to stay here?" I asked.
"Master, there is no need to worry. As the technology we discovered has been lost for a long time, this 3D model serves as an emergency backup if something similar were to happen. It connects to our brains, and our knowledge can be used to assist you. While we may not have physical bodies, our knowledge is a valuable asset," they reassured me.
"But how do you know about my powers?" I asked.
"It's because you are related to the individual who escaped this bunker," they revealed.
"What?" I was shocked.
"More specifically, you have our bloodline. We cannot explain why you possess such powers, but the dimensional time rift is the reason," they explained.
"Okay, I suppose I have to accept that for now. Can you tell me why the apocalypse happened?" I asked.
"Apocalypse? Are you referring to a human extinction threat?" they questioned.
"Didn't you know about the zombie apocalypse?" I asked.
"Apologies, but we have just awakened, and we have no knowledge of current world issues," they responded.
"Is that so, a world crisis suddenly began, and the government stated that they have been dealing with it for a while now but now it's out of control, the zombies spread worldwide, the government shut down and I don't think the human will survive" "Zombie apocalypse? We have a theory about a dead rising to life again, but we know nothing about the zombie apocalypse I'm very sorry for our lack of knowledge" "It's okay, you're already a big help to us"
"But master, the zombie is a virus that affects the dead even if they are already dead?" "Yeah? I saw someone who kill himself yet wasn't bitten but still turn into a zombie" "Airborne? if that's the case then this place is full of zombies!" "What!?
