Japanese Terrorist: What? I'll fight Hellstar!

"The third part... Oh right, I remember your original idea that [light] has three parts. The first part is your sexual light, the second part is the light of hope in people's hearts, and the third part is the light that our so-called creator god set up, which can fight against darkness."

Sensing Amamiya Rin's thoughts, Tomie also understood the situation.

If we're talking about pure "ghost stories," the combination of sexual light and the light of hope—that is, the spirit and obsession of Amamiya Rin—along with the power of people's beliefs, is enough to create a ghost story called "Ultraman Seven."

But a living being is still a living being. Compared to a flesh-and-blood body, it has an inherent deficiency in quality. It is already quite remarkable that a product born from the combination of belief and soul can deliver the performance of a tokusatsu drama.

To showcase the power depicted in the original story... even those who believe in the real existence of Ultraman Seven would find it hard to imagine how powerful an Ultraman warrior who is 40 meters tall and weighs 35000 tons would be in battle. Even if Ultraman Seven were remade and his performance enhanced, it would still be difficult to get that sense of reality from the television screen.

In short, when the opponent is a vengeful spirit or a curse, Rin Amamiya can use the ghost stories of Ultraman Seven to transform his ethereal spiritual light and willpower into a tangible force.

However, if the target is Hellstar, it would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

In this way, the third component of [light] becomes indispensable.

Only by incorporating the concept of light at the cosmic level into Ultraman Seven can Ultraman Seven have a chance to fight against Hellstar.

"But isn't this concept a bit too abstract? How exactly would you do it?"

Tomie frowned. No matter what it is, once it's elevated to the cosmic level, it becomes very difficult to understand.

"Hmm... Extrasensory perception? Using extrasensory perception to sense the light of hope in the universe?"

Amamiya Rin closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and then spoke in an uncertain tone.

"What the hell is that? Tell me more specifically!"

Tomie gave the order impatiently.

"Extrasensory perception is extrasensory perception, a superhuman level of perception, able to sense the entire universe, nerve cells detaching from the body and spreading into the universe... Although it's my idea, in the comic that features concepts like 'God,' 'the darkness that rules the universe,' and 'the light that fights against the darkness,' there's a scene where a character senses the entire universe to the point that their physical body decomposes into a special spiritual entity."

Amamiya Rin pulled out his notebook from under the driver's seat, flipped through a few pages, and found some rough plot notes he had previously made about the comics.

"Right, it wasn't sensing the entire universe, but rather the female protagonist of that comic. That female protagonist was chosen by God to travel back in time several hundred years ago, carrying a cross up a mountain with someone who resembled Jesus. After her death, she became the concept of light in the universe."

"God? You mean that horror manga artist Junji Ito? Why don't we just contact him directly?"

Tomie put forward an idea.

Why not just go directly to Junji Ito and draw a side story for "Ultraman Seven", designing a plot where Rin Amamiya meets Ultraman Seven and becomes Ultraman Seven's human form?

"Leaving aside whether he is the incarnation of the creator god, even if he is, the heroine he chose is still far from defeating the darkness. Expecting him to create a real Ultraman..."

Amamiya Rin turned to look at Tomie, his gaze sweeping over her well-defined muscles, and he couldn't help but sigh.

Meat-gaze Tomie's face darkened instantly. She grabbed Amamiya Rin's neck with both hands and pulled her forcefully towards herself.

Amamiya Rin's face collided with the chest of the flesh-modified Tomie... To be honest, it was a bit hard and a bit painful; it was compressed too much.

"Are you saying I've trained my muscles into my brain?"

Tomie asked in a very dangerous tone, her arms gradually increasing in strength.

(No! Right now, I'm thinking about Kayako!)

Unable to make a sound, Amamiya Rin decisively conveyed her feelings through [Tomie Network].

"Huh? Kayako? You bastard, could it be that you regretted becoming Ultraman Seven and destroying Kayako, and now you want to resolve Kayako's resentment?"

Tomie asked with a cold smile.

While at the Saeki family's house, Amamiya Rin had a heart-to-heart talk with Kayako to resolve her resentment, and Kayako was indeed wavering at that time. It was because of this that she had that final question filled with grief and indignation.

(No, I will not regret what I have done. A clean and swift death would be a relief for Kayako. Although it is a good deed to help Kayako pass on, I will not force her to do so.)

Amamiya Rin remained calm.

The moment he chose to transform his own being into Ultraman Seven, resolving Kayako's resentment was no longer an option for him.

Her resentment and anger, her unwilling disappearance, may well be a form of punishment from Kayako for the evil deeds she committed.

Right now, Amamiya Rin is just wondering, is it really over?

Was Kayako truly and completely killed? Is Kayako truly dead?

When you take action, you must be ruthless and leave no room for future trouble, especially with a curse like Ju-on that has the potential to destroy the world.

But can Kayako, who possesses the ability to interfere with space and time, kill to the point of leaving no room for mercy?

Amamiya Rin was somewhat worried, especially when she thought about how Kayako had experienced a moment of explosive growth in power during the battle.

He suspected that during that period, Kayako may have committed murder and evil deeds in the past or some future timeline.

"Tch! Why worry so much? If Kayako isn't really dead, we can just eliminate her again when she reappears, right? Do you really want to bear the burden of the bloodshed caused by Kayako because you failed to completely kill her?"

With her strength diminished, Tomie hugged Amamiya Rin to her chest, rolled her eyes, and said irritably.

"Instead of such trivial matters, you should consider the energy expenditure. Although Ultraman Seven's output is lower than Tsuburaya's setting, its energy consumption is by no means low. This time it's Kayako, who holds a grudge against you, which is why you were able to buy yourself time to charge up for a one-hit kill through dialogue. If you encounter other cursed spirits that can manipulate time, will you be able to outlast them?"

She had also seen Amamiya Rin's memories, those of the three famous Japanese demon kings, Kayako, Sadako, and Mimiko, each of whom possessed the ability to interfere with spacetime.

Kayako can create time-space distortions, Sadako can touch the present from the past, and Mimiko can create time loops.

The ability to measure time is so commonplace.
