Chara is silent for a moment, glancing away from the other child as they try to think over the situation as quickly as possible.
The other child doesn't know about Chara's partner, even though Chara was still revived in their timeline. They also don't know how or why Chara was revived, and was able to progress through the Underground without killing anyone. The other child hadn't had much of a stomach for violence- Chara's fairly sure that was why they'd given up their control over their body to Chara.
It sounds as if Chara's partner was unable to direct the two of them in the other timeline, even after Chara's revival.
And now they have to try and somehow explain all this to someone who probably can't understand.
"Someone who awoke me in the first place," they say, "Who needed me to access our world, and who needed my guidance. I'm afraid I don't have a name to offer you, but I came to think of them as my partner. Perhaps in your timeline, our connection to them was severed early on.
"Our goal was to gain power. To become stronger. To eradicate our enemies and increase our EXP. I'd almost reached LV 20 when Sans came along, and- well, you know what happened next.
"Which reminds me. I made an interesting discovery when I killed you. I thought killing you might be enough to increase my LV. But as it turns out, you aren't worth any EXP."
have some cryptic infodumping
