"He knew perfectly well that the 'Time Eater' was an incredibly dangerous monster capable of destroying the entire world."
"But he actually planned to capture it and use the power within it!"
"He even said that as long as he could obtain its power, he could travel through any space and time without limit..."
"He's...playing with fire!"
"No, he's gambling the survival of the entire world on his own insane dream!"
"This kind of person is more dangerous and terrifying than any simple villain!"
Her eyes were filled with deep apprehension.
...
Lolo's Adventure World
"Oh my god!"
"Can time... be eaten too?"
Lolo's face was filled with incomprehensible shock.
He felt that his understanding of the universe had been completely refreshed once again today.
"Yes."
"Moreover, that strange old man is even more terrifying than this monster."
"He actually wanted to use this power, which was enough to destroy the world."
"Isn't he afraid that he might also be swallowed whole by that monster?"
Thunderbolt also felt a deep sense of lingering fear.
"Is this... the price of 'seeking knowledge'?"
"In order to explore the mysteries of time and space, and to realize my so-called dream of 'infinite travel'..."
"He could actually treat the safety of the entire world as a gamble that he could casually sacrifice on his experimental table without any hesitation."
"This insane thirst for knowledge is... truly terrifying."
The vanguard looked at the screen and let out a heartfelt sigh.

Boonie Bears World (The Strange Old Man)
"Ha ha……"
"Ha ha ha ha ha……"
"Finally...it appeared!"
“I’ve waited all these years, planned all these years, and even gone so far as to interfere with the reincarnation of that ‘God Guz’…”
"It's all so that at this moment when the timelines collide violently, we can bring out you, the legendary ultimate being that only exists in theory!"
“My dear… ‘Time Eater’!”
He opened his arms as if embracing the monster that was about to destroy the world.
His eyes were filled with the purest, and most intense, yearning of a scientist upon encountering ultimate truth.
"As long as I can have you, as long as I can understand you..."
"Then I can become the true ruler of time, surpassing all gods!"
[Xiao Zhang couldn't persuade the already crazed doctor, so he wanted to ask Bald Qiang and the others for help.]
Bald Qiang and Julie both agreed.
The group of them quietly infiltrated the strange old man's house.
As soon as he entered the house, Xiao Zhang came at him with a huge iron hammer.
However, he nimbly dodged the attack with ease.
The strange old man scoffed, "Hmph, a mere trifle."
"Watch me."
[Bald Qiang appeared behind him, wielding a thick wooden stick, and struck him.]
But he still easily dodged it.
Xiao Zhang shouted loudly, "Doctor, stop! That Devourer is beyond your control!"
"High returns naturally come with high risks. Don't you understand such a simple truth?"
The strange old man picked at his ear and said calmly.
【"PhD."】
Xiao Zhang wanted to say something more.
"In short, none of you can stop me..."
The strange old man turned around.
【"Bang."】
[In the very next second.]
In the room next to him, Julie was holding a huge frying pan and smashed it directly into his face, knocking him unconscious on the spot.
Boonie Bears World (Julie)
"Eh?"
"That...that was me?"
In real life, Julie looked at the image of herself on the screen, holding a frying pan and looking dashing.
Her face was full of surprise.
"I...I'm actually this amazing?"
"That mysterious and agile old man, even Bald Qiang and his assistant together couldn't beat him..."
"As a result, I knocked him out with just an ordinary frying pan!"
She stared at the screen, feeling a profound sense of unreality.
"and……"
"In the future, I will be able to fight alongside Bald Qiang, the incredibly legendary hero who saved the world three times..."
"This is such an honor!"
A confident smile, full of anticipation and longing, appeared on her lips.
"It seems that my future life will be much more exciting and stimulating than what I am doing now, sitting in the office every day dealing with these boring documents."
...
Boonie Bears World
"hateful!"
"This strange old man looks crazy, but I didn't expect him to be so agile!"
However, what happened the next second shocked him so much that his jaw almost dropped.
He saw his usually serious and ordinary female boss, Julie, suddenly descend from the sky with a huge frying pan, knocking the strange old man unconscious with a single blow.
"Wow!"
"Julie...Manager?"
"So...so awesome!"
In real life, Bald Qiang is looking at the screen.
His face was filled with surprise.
"This Julie... is so cool!"
"Normally, she seems like just an ordinary, slightly nagging female boss."
"I never expected her to be so decisive, so...violent, when she fights!"
"Look at how clean and efficient she is with that frying pan, not a single bit of hesitation!"
"Truly... a master who doesn't reveal their true abilities!"
His face was filled with heartfelt admiration for his beautiful boss.
[After knocking that strange old man unconscious.]
They then tied him up tightly again.
Xiao Zhang asked, "Bald Qiang, are you really sure? Are you sure you want to go back, tear off that piece of paper, and restart that old timeline?"
"Yes, I think this is probably the best way to eliminate that devourer."
Bald Qiang nodded.
"But then, wouldn't you be..."
Xiao Zhang wanted to say something more, but he was interrupted: "Don't worry, Xiao-Zhang, I've thought it through. I still can't bear to part with them."
And so, armed with their equipment, they once again arrived at that old timeline.
They returned to the very place where they had chosen to begin.
[And they wanted to, on 2.4, tear up that lumberjack job posting.]
However, they discovered that a large number of monstrous fragments of spacetime had gathered here.
They destroyed many fragments of spacetime that came to obstruct their path.
But then it was discovered that these fragments were constantly converging and merging.
"Oh no! The Time Eater is about to appear! Before it fully materializes, quickly tear up that sheet!" Xiao Zhang shouted.
【"Um."】
