Ultraman: The Dark Shadow Mage, Creating a Magic Empire

Chapter 156 First Mission, Clash of the New Generation

"Very good. It seems you have become familiar with the changes in energy and have grasped the true nature of magic."

Edward nodded in satisfaction, then tossed a paper document in his hand to Ax in front of him.

"His Majesty knows you have a knot in your heart. You can reveal some information about the Empire to those guys. It's all written here. Once you've resolved your knot, you can serve His Majesty wholeheartedly."

"this……"

X looked at the paper in his hand, somewhat incredulous that the Emperor of the Empire would do such a thing.

But his intuition told him that this was exactly what their Emperor, the Great Shadow Emperor, would do!

"I will dedicate everything to Your Majesty!"

X knelt down on one knee to pay his respects; he was already willing to give everything.

But as Norman and Edward both knew, he still needed to fulfill this wish before he could completely let go of his inner conflict.

"Rest for a while and wait for my summons."

Edward nodded in satisfaction, then waved for them to leave.

The six people walked out of the underground conference room and saw the long-lost gray light unique to the Azure Star.

At that moment, they felt alive!

Edward's special training was inhumane. He didn't treat them as human beings at all. Every training session was designed to push them to their limits and was extremely difficult, tailored to each individual's physical limitations.

Because Edward is not only the Imperial Chancellor, but also the trainer of the Imperial Guard and the Imperial Assassin's Court.

Back then, he was the Black Kingdom's Assassin's Court, who protected Norman many times before he ascended the throne, thwarting many assassination attempts by political enemies and enemy assassins.

The Imperial Guard, now Norman's personal guard, is the most powerful yet least conspicuous force in the empire, constantly guarding the palace.

After they came out, everyone prepared to leave and go about their own business.

But Ax called out to them.

"Excuse me, could you please do me a favor?"

Ex's words made everyone stop in their tracks, and they turned to look at him.

"He actually took the initiative to speak?" Xerath looked at Ex in surprise.

Azir asked, "What is it?"

"I would like to ask for your help to come with me to meet those Ultra Warriors."

"They should all be part of the new generation," Axe said. "I'll share some of the information on the paper with them, which will also be a way of saying goodbye to the past."

"But after saying goodbye, I have done all I could. So whether they can take these materials with them in the end depends on whether they can escape from us."

"Interesting. Are you planning to turn this farewell into a special hunt?" Yaoguang asked.

The others also looked at X with curiosity.

Ex nodded and said, "Yes, this is the final farewell. After this farewell, our first battle will begin!"

"That sounds great, I'll join," Azir said.

"Take me with you." Xerath nodded.

"I'll join too," said the Devourer of Stars from the side.

Yaoguang and his sister exchanged a glance and nodded, saying, "This is a good opportunity for us to test what we've learned during this time and see how well we coordinate."

"Yes, thank you."

Ax bowed respectfully.

"Let's go." Yaoguang smiled and, together with his sister, grew to gigantic size, revealing their true forms.

As a race of light and darkness, their appearance is similar to that of the Ultra race in the Land of Light, but they have golden and black patterns on their bodies similar to those of the ancient dark giants.

With the addition of some Nightborne bloodline, and gray lines on its body, it possesses both power and beauty.

Together they opened a portal and traveled into space, finding a reasonably nice place.

"Let's stay here. I'll go contact them," X said.

The Qin soldiers lay in ambush on the spot, quietly waiting for Ax to return.

After X left, he sent out a special Ultra Signature into the universe.

This Ultra Signature automatically finds a member of the Clan of Light and conveys the message he wants to deliver.

After his Ultra Sign flew out, it quickly traveled through the universe and found Orb, who was patrolling in space.

"This is... Ex!"

Orb was shocked when he saw Ultraman's signature, because X clearly stated in the signature that he could give them information about the Shadow Empire, but it also indicated that it was a trap.

Whether to come or not, X left the choice to Orb.

Upon receiving the news, Orb was shocked and pondered whether or not to go to the appointment, but he knew he couldn't come up with a solution on his own.

So he gave up thinking and went to find Zero and the others with the information.

Orb's message was also sent out, and he quickly received responses from Zero, Ginga, and others.

They returned to the Land of Light and gathered to discuss countermeasures regarding this matter.

"Is this Ultraman X the young man you mentioned who voluntarily followed Tregear?"

Upon hearing Orb's explanation, Seven immediately focused on the key points.

"Yes, I didn't expect him to contact me first. I had just arrived and didn't have much interaction with him at the time."

"Is that so..."

The first generation said, "I think even if this is a conspiracy, we need to take the initiative!"

"We desperately need information about this so-called Shadow Empire. We know nothing about them, but they know everything about us. This is dangerous."

"That's right, I also think we have to go," Zero said. "It's an opportunity. What if we could get information about Belial from them? We absolutely can't miss it!"

"Okay, let's go take a look!"

"We will be there to cover for you, and we will come to your aid as soon as possible if necessary."

The original, Seven, and Jack only had enough energy left for one last transformation. If they had the energy, they would have even wanted to go by themselves.

"I'm here!" Zero scratched his nose and said, "Don't worry!"

"Walk!"

Zero, along with Orb and Ginga, set off and soon arrived at the place X had agreed upon with them.

Orb stepped forward and said, "X! We're here!"

As Orb shouted, X emerged from behind a nearby boulder, followed by the brother and sister duo, Light and Dark.

"Ex, what's wrong with you?!"

Orb was incredibly surprised when he met X, because X's appearance had changed so much.

Black and gold patterns appeared on his body, one of his eyes had turned black, and there were also black patterns on his body.

It looks terrifying, like falling into darkness!

"Are you surprised? I was surprised at first, but I got over it later. This is what it means to have mastered the power of both darkness and light. My mindset wasn't changed, nor was I affected by the darkness... Never mind, you wouldn't understand anyway."

As he spoke, X tossed the paper in his hand to Orb.

"This is my last obsession. It contains some basic information, as well as the whereabouts of General Belial."

"Whether you can bring it back or not depends on your abilities!"
