Her digital world has this history:
Ancient times—
The Digital World was in chaos, and all the Digimon were ignorant, until the first Ultimate Digimon—the Ancient Ten Warriors—appeared, leading the Digimon to start an evolutionary frenzy, with the Ultimate forms of the Ancient Species constantly emerging.
It was a brutal, dog-eat-dog world where all beasts fought for survival.
Ancient times—
The ancient Ten Warriors went into seclusion, allowing Pharaohmon to rise to power, enslaving lower-level Digimon to build countless wonders and leaving behind many ancient ruins in the Digital World.
Since Pharaohmon, heroes have risen up, dominating various states and counties, fighting each other endlessly, plunging the world into chaos, until Huanglongmon appeared out of nowhere, unifying the Digital World and establishing the first world order.
However, Huanglongmon was cruel and tyrannical, causing great suffering to the Digimon people. Then, Lucemon, a gift from heaven, was born and sealed Huanglongmon in the Dark Area, ending Huanglongmon's tyranny and ushering in an era of recuperation for the Digital World.
Medieval period
Due to historical issues left over from the Huanglongmon era, conflicts between humanoid and beast-type Digimon continued, triggering a world-scale war.
In the end, Lucemon intervened and used overwhelming power to stop the fight between the two sides, and the world returned to peace.
Lucemon knew that if no one managed the world, the war between humanoids and beastoids would continue to occur. So he summoned all the angel-type Digimon, created the three great angels, built a divine army, wore crowns, ascended the throne, and ruled on behalf of the gods to manage the world.
Early modern period —
As time passed, the dragon-slaying boy grew scales and transformed into a dragon.
Lucemon has become a tyrant, even worse than Huanglongmon back then. The three archangels summoned the ten ancient warriors and together sealed Lucemon into the Dark Zone.
However, the Ten Warriors also paid a heavy price. Eight out of ten were lost. After the spirits of the ten humanoid warriors were handed over to the three angels, the remaining two Ten Warriors (AncientGreymon and AncientGarurumon) disappeared without a trace.
Modern period —
The three angels jointly rule: Seraphimon is responsible for the laws and maintaining order in the Digital World, Angewomon is responsible for the transmission of love and the continuation of life in the Digital World, and Cherubimon is responsible for mastering the knowledge and path of the Digital World.
With the separation of powers, there was no dictatorship or tyranny, and everything seemed to be moving in a positive direction.
Modern period —
Cherubimon suddenly turned evil, leading a rebellion with evil warriors and an army of Digimon. With thunderous force, they sealed away Seraphimon and captured Ophanimon, plunging the Digital World into panic...
Author's message:
P.S.: This chronology applies only to the fourth volume of this book, Digital World.
Chapter 49, Return
After listening to the little dogmon's narration, an epic and magnificent worldview emerged in everyone's minds. They couldn't help but feel the infinity of time and space, the vastness of the universe, and realized that humans and Digimon were insignificant.
Even someone as simple-minded as Da Menda felt the vastness of the world.
Does he really want to be just a mere gang leader who fights?
Do not!
If you're going to do something, do it the best!
The big man's eyes lit up, as if he had made up his mind.
The World Tree suddenly said, "According to your description, your world is not without a god, but that god does not possess high intelligence, yet it responds accordingly to the will of the Digimon."
In the primordial era, Digimon instinctively yearned to evolve, and thus the Ten Ancient Warriors appeared, leading the trend of evolution.
During a time of great upheaval, the Digimon hoped someone would quell the war, so Huanglongmon appeared and established world order.
Huanglongmon was brutal, and the Digimon hoped that someone could overthrow Huanglongmon's rule, so Lucemon sealed Huanglongmon away.
The battle between humanoid and beast-type Digimon led them to pray for peace, which is why Lucemon reappeared and established the Order of Light.
When Lucemon turned into a tyrant, the Digimon prayed once more, which is why the three archangels were able to find the Ten Ancient Warriors and seal Lucemon away together.
It is evident that a mysterious force still exists within the Digital World of the Infinite Zone.
Yggdrasil said, "He has no intelligence, but he responds to the desires of the Digimon. Perhaps he can be called the 'God of Necessity'. He is invisible and omnipresent."
The concept of a God of necessity is a Western one.
In the East, it is generally referred to as "the Way of Heaven".
The puppymon asked, "If that's the case, and the God of Inevitability really exists, why hasn't the God of Inevitability reacted to Cherubimon's rule over the Digital World for so many years?"
Yggdrasil said, "That depends on the actual situation. I haven't examined your Digital World. However, the interference of the God of Necessity is silent and subtle. Perhaps it has already begun, but you haven't noticed it yet."
That being said.
But saying it is the same as not saying it at all.
Takuya Kambara secretly grumbled to himself.
The World Tree seemed to sense Takuya Kanbara's thoughts and politely said to him, "Takuya Kanbara, may I borrow your Armored Digivice for a look?"
"That's no problem. What do you want to do?" Takuya Kanbara took out the Armored Digivice and threw it onto the round platform.
The World Tree used its enormous computing power to scan the Armed Tyrannosaurus Rex inside and out, including the Fighter Spirit within it.
If Kurata can create new Digimon Spirits, then there's no reason why Yggdrasil can't.
Once this technology is mastered, the corresponding Royal Knight Spirit can be created using the Royal Knights' data, and there will be no need to worry about a lack of available personnel in the future.
Alpha Beast isn't coming to work?
Want to slack off?
You are fired!
Crimson Knight Beast, what kind of look is that?
You want to chop me up?
You are fired!
World Tree: (?ω?) Mehahaha—!
The combination of the gatekeeper's body and the fighter's spirit technique is absolutely amazing!
There is nothing to be afraid of anymore!
Yggdrasil was so excited he almost collapsed inside, but outwardly remained calm. He handed the Armed Digivice to Takuya Kanbara and said, "Vulcan's Fighter Spirit is experiencing data corruption due to energy overload. It is repairing and evolving on its own."
"I see, thank you for letting me know."
"What are some of the more obvious characteristics of your digital world? For example, how many satellites are there, or the proportion and shape of the landmasses and oceans?"
"There are three moons, and the surface is pockmarked."
"The location can be determined. Your digital world is the closest digital world to this one, about 200 million kilometers away as the crow flies. If you can travel at the speed of light, you can arrive in twelve minutes."
"..."
The little dog stood there, stunned.
Are you kidding me? Traveling at the speed of light for twelve minutes!?
How can it be!
Believe it or not, quite a few Digimon can reach the speed of light, or even exceed the speed of light, under certain circumstances.
For example, MagnaGarurumon is good at moving at the speed of light. Unfortunately, although it has the speed of light, it does not have the speed of thought to match it. It can only use the speed of light to hit the enemy, which is a very simple and crude application.
Skatemon can reach 98% of the speed of light, Rabimon can eliminate enemies with movements close to the speed of light, and Deirramon's data transmission speed is the speed of light.
The above are some settings where the term "speed of light" is explicitly mentioned.
But what does this have to do with the little dog beast?
She is clearly not a speed-type Digimon; even in Burst Mode, supersonic speed is the maximum she can reach.
Speed of light = 880965 times the speed of sound!
She couldn't even keep up with a fraction of the money.
"I need to go somewhere quiet."
The little dog beast walked out with its head down. Takuya Kanbara gestured to the others and followed. They saw the little dog beast sitting on a tree branch, gazing wistfully at the distant horizon.
Takuya Kanbara walked behind the little dog, gazed into the distance, and whispered, "Now that we know where our target is, we can definitely go back if we want to."
The puppy beast said, "I want to evolve."
Takuya Kanbara took out the BurstGreymon and evolved Puppymon into the Ultimate form, Angewomon.
Angewomon said, "Actually, I'm not worried about whether I can go back, but I'm worried about what I should do after I get back. Should I go and find the God of Necessity, or should I stick to the original plan?"
Takuya Kambara said, "Why choose? These two things are not contradictory."
One cannot have both fish and bear's paw; one must choose the latter.
If you can have both, then you should take both!
Angewomon was taken aback; she had fallen into a cognitive trap.
This is a limitation of Digimon. Compared to the wild and unpredictable thinking of humans, Digimon's thinking is more stable and it is difficult for them to come up with new ideas.
Takuya Kanbara added, "Or you can consider both: whether it's ancient or modern, a world ultimately needs someone to guide it, so why can't that person be you?"
"I?"
"Yes, you shall become a god."
Can I?
"No one was standing in heaven from the beginning, neither you nor I, not even God."
Angewomon felt a sense of relief, but then she remembered that Lucemon had gone through the same thing, and worried, "What if I become like Lucemon?"
Takuya Kanbara said, "In that case, I'll bring you back."
"Thank you." Angewomon felt a warmth in her heart, and in her excitement, she turned around and hugged Takuya Kanbara.
Bah!
My nose collided with my breastplate; it hurts so much.
Even a celestial being like Takuya Kanbara couldn't help but have tears welling up in his eyes.
Angewomon hurriedly said, "Oh, I'm sorry, a kiss will make everything alright, right?"
How could a kiss possibly work...? Wait, it actually works!
As expected of the holy Angewomon who spreads love and compassion!
However, there's really no need for a kiss; touching or stroking can have the same effect.
But Angewomon insisted on a kiss, and Takuya Kanbara couldn't do anything about it.
Although she was forced to be a recluse for thousands of years, she was essentially a strong woman, even at night.
"Takuya, I'm no longer lost. I want to become the god of the Digital World and create a Digital World full of love," Angewomon said firmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a black mist suddenly appeared in the distance. Within the black mist was a monorail, and the Trainmon Dark Train, which had once carried Takuya Kanbara and Angewomon through time and space, slowly approached.
"Do you want to go back?" Dark asked.
In fact, it has always been near Angewomon, but it will only appear after Angewomon has completely overcome her confusion.
Takuya Kanbara smiled and said, "My teacher once said that as long as you have a goal in your heart, the whole world will make way for you."
Angewomon covered her mouth and chuckled, saying, "I've always wanted to ask, who exactly is your teacher?"
Takuya Kanbara pointed a single finger at the sun in the sky and whispered, "The Way of Heaven."
After saying this, the two smiled at each other and entered the carriage hand in hand.
The only regret is that I couldn't say goodbye to the DATS members.
……
The World Tree seemed to sense something, and after a moment of silence, it said, "They have left and returned to their world."
Everyone was puzzled. Wasn't it said that it would take twelve minutes to get there by flying at the speed of light?
"How did you leave?"
"Take the tram."
"..."
