Who made him Ultraman!

Chapter 25 Public Sentiments and Responsibilities

"I didn't expect that it only took one night to go from His Highness to His Majesty and then to Your Excellency." Kai said vaguely while biting a chicken leg.

Seeing this, Gagula gently dismissed Yu Yan and looked at Kai: "Didn't you notice that he is very disgusted with what your Majesty said? Kai, have you discovered Ganon's biggest problem?"

"Ganon...Any other questions besides Amaterasu?"

"Take a good look at what the people are wearing and what they are eating, and then look at what the people here are doing."

Looking at the question mark on Kai's head, Gagula said helplessly: "Forget it, I'll be frank. Ganon under Amaterasu's rule is a feudal society. This is an objective fact that we cannot ignore, and now Yuchen has taken over the position of ruler."

"Ah... you mean Yuchen is going to inherit Amaterasu's legacy, and the world belongs to Yuchen?"

Jagula: "?"

He said angrily: "Don't say such things. His position is different from Amaterasu. It is obvious who is on the side of the people."

Kai scratched his head and waved his hands, "Ah, what you said is so complicated that I don't really understand. Anyway, the leader of a planet is actually my friend, so it's very prestigious to say it out loud."

Gagra glanced at him speechlessly and subconsciously took a step back.

After thinking for a while, he stood back and looked at Lai Ying, and continued to explain to Kai: "Did you see Lai Ying? He is the current commander-in-chief of the Ganon Armed Forces. After this battle, he is now the well-deserved second in command."

"Before the attack by Cai Qi, Yu Chen recruited all the military police and guards and handed them over to Lai Ying for command. Now that Amaterasu is dead and the results of the Trial of the Tree of Life have been announced to the world, those who have objections will be helpless. It is only a matter of time before dissidents are eliminated."

"There's no need to say who the person who came to welcome and pledge allegiance is, right? That guy is really... In just one night, he not only seized power, but also won the hearts of the people. Wow, he really has a bright future."

Seeing the somewhat envious Gagra, Kai was a little embarrassed: "Gagra, do you think it's right for Yuchen to do this? The judgment of the Tree of Life is passively activated. If Yuchen doesn't want to do it, Amaterasu can survive. But now everyone thinks that it was the Tree of Life that killed Amaterasu. Isn't this... a deception?"

Gagula gave Kai a strange look and said, "What's the matter? Do you want to see Ganon in turmoil? Amaterasu is going to die anyway, if he doesn't take the reins, who will?"

"You can be confused, but you can't be the guy who is deprived of his light, understand?"

"Listen to me, before today, many people believed in Amaterasu, but after this incident, everyone saw the true face of the king they trusted. Trust is difficult to build, but it is very easy to break."

"Even if a few people are dissatisfied, so what? This kind of thing will be easily forgotten. If people can use electronic products next year and their material conditions can be improved the year after, who will still miss Amaterasu in a few years?"

Kai was shocked: "But this...how could it be as smooth as you said?"

Gargura sneered: "Ganon can even master the technology of spacecraft jump. What's impossible? What does this mean? The technology has developed to a certain level, but due to the interference of some people, the technology tree has deviated. That's why there is a split between primitive feudalism and modern future."

"People look forward to strongmen coming to power because the basic economic situation is fragile, people's well-being cannot be guaranteed, and even their personal and property safety cannot be guaranteed. Given these drawbacks, people will seek strongmen to break the status quo. Once the problem of having enough food is solved, the so-called history will be left in the past."

"You can call her Your Majesty Amaterasu, but you can't call her Your Excellency Yuchen?"

Kai stared at Gagra blankly, feeling that his brain couldn't function and his CPU was about to burn out. The other party could always speak out those great truths and answer his doubts, but he really only had a pure heart: "Gagra, I still feel that the light is not pure enough, but I don't have any good solution. I am also looking for the answer myself. In short, I am very confused now."

Gagula sighed helplessly: "Then don't let your mind wander. You can't come up with the answer by yourself. Why not wait a week and ask a commoner about the situation."

“The voice of the people is more convincing than anything else.”

……

A week later——

Kai walked tremblingly to a village, stepping on the asphalt road, and it always felt unreal.

No, was there this road originally?

His sneaky look was soon discovered by the man holding the child. When the man saw that he was one of the people who were highly commended, he immediately became enthusiastic: "Brother? You, no, you, why are you in the mood to come to us?" "Nier, say hello to uncle." The man said affectionately to the child on his shoulder.

"Hello, uncle."

Seeing the well-behaved and cute child, Kai's guard was instantly lowered.

Children are truly the best and most beautiful things in the world!
Kai thought about it, and then hesitated: "Well, I want to ask, what do you think of Yuchen?"

When talking about Yuchen, the man opened up and praised him cheerfully, waving his arms: "Ah, you said His Excellency, he is such a good man. Look at this road, it was those soldiers who came with tools to repair it, and they all said it was Your Excellency's idea."

"Also, look at my clothes. They are so beautiful and festive. I didn't have such a style before. Your Excellency also gives subsidies to those of us who have children. We can't eat meat every day now, but it's almost there."

"Do you know what the Excellency said when he saw me eating rice balls? The Excellency said, don't eat rice balls, you can still be full with meat!"

"I'm not saying that Queen Amaterasu is bad. Forget it. I'm just saying that she is bad! I never thought that little girl would do such a hateful thing!"

"My dear, we have never had such a good life before. Your Excellency knew that my child was killed in the first attack by the enemy, and without saying anything, he gave me a lot of money. I have never seen so much money in my life. You said you were ashamed of me. Your Excellency is really..."

"Besides, you have to know that it has only been a week. Your Excellency told us that there are still many good days ahead."

The man then called over a group of relatives, and they surrounded Kai and told him in vivid detail about the changes in their lives over the past week.

It was not until nightfall that Kai headed back.

On the way, he remembered a sentence that Yu Chen told him.

Ultraman fights for people's happiness.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came into his ears: "Hey, did you get the answer?"

Jagger stood by the road, hidden in the shadows.

Kai smiled and nodded: "That's about right. It seems that I am overthinking it. It's better to say that I am disenchanting Ultraman."

"When I first met Senior Asuka Shin, I saw divinity in him, and it has influenced me ever since."

"Including...Haruno Musashi's inability to interfere is probably related to this aspect, but they seem to have gone astray."

"Ultraman is, after all, just a large human being."

Suddenly, Yu Chen walked out from behind the tree, leaning against the trunk with his hands in his pockets: "Yes, the light will choose those who have a sense of responsibility, not only for themselves, but also for the life and civilization wherever they go."

"This sense of responsibility will guide you to decide what is beneficial to those lives and civilizations, what is harmful and unacceptable, and what should be confronted. All of this should be done according to your heart."

Kai nodded, the admiration in his eyes was clear: "I seem to understand, but I also seem not to understand. Anyway, I still have a long way to go. I am not as mature as you and Gagula. There are many problems that I need to figure out by myself."

He took out the holy sword, and the faint light on its surface illuminated the surroundings: "The task assigned to me by the ring is completed. It will give me a new task, so we have to say goodbye here."

"Gagula and I will come to Ganon when we have the chance. I gained a lot today."

Hearing this, an unexpected voice came: "Kai, it's not us, it's you."

Gagula didn't come towards him, but just looked at him with a smile: "Kai."

"I won't help you anymore."
