Japanese Terrorist: What? I'll fight Hellstar!

"Welcome to the Dreamland, brother. I am the guardian and administrator of this world."

The Night Demon's voice had lost its previous urgency, leaving only a soft calmness, still carrying a childish nasal tone.

"Guardian..."

Amamiya Rin turned around and looked at Night Demon. Her body was still shrouded in darkness, and her expression was not clear.

In truth, Nyarlathotep is indeed the guardian of the Dreamland, protecting the weaker gods of Earth.

However, Amamiya Rin didn't believe at all that the Night Demon appeared in front of him to protect him.

"Is that why I was granted that ability called... Dream Realization Specialization?"

Amamiya Rin tentatively asked.

"Are you still holding onto that kind of thing? Yes, that's right. From the moment you took my hand and entered the Dreamland with me, the gates of the Dreamland were already open to you."

Seemingly recalling something amusing, Night Demon laughed heartily.

"Transforming dreams into a reality that individuals are willing to believe, intervening at the boundary between reality and dreams, and entering this world hand in hand with me as the manager, it is only natural that I can achieve this level of capability."

Amamiya Rin's brows furrowed slightly.

The Night Demon said so much, but it seems he didn't give a direct answer.

"Let's go. It's not safe here. Atlak will come after us. Brother doesn't want his city to be destroyed, does he? The city is the crystallization of the subconscious. If it's destroyed, the dream weaver will go crazy."

As Night Demon spoke, he led Amamiya Rin by the hand and continued walking forward.

The corrosive pain continued in their clasped hands.

However, along with the waves of pain that seemed to dissolve her skin, some memories also vaguely appeared in Amamiya Rin's mind... no, they should be described as some inexplicable and mysterious knowledge.

He seems... he seems to know how to enter and exit the dream realm, but it is also mixed with elements of madness and mutation.

Amamiya Rin allowed the Night Demon to hold his hand. He did not resist her guidance, but followed her side, moving forward while examining his own changes.

They walked past one familiar corner after another, the city lights behind them gradually elongating and shrinking into a blurry afterimage. The familiar street outlines around them faded away quietly like sand paintings washed by the tide, as if in the blink of an eye, the two of them had left the city.

The road beneath my feet had turned into cold, fine, grayish-white gravel. All around me was boundless desolation, devoid of vegetation, buildings, or any sign of life. Even the wind had stopped completely, and the air was filled with a musty dust and a chilling cold.

The sky was a deep black, with few cold stars emitting a ghostly blue light. The distant horizon was no longer a straight line, but curved downwards in an illogical arc, as if they were standing on the very top of a sphere, with an endless abyss just one step away.

"Where do you want to take me?"

Amamiya Rin looked back and finally stopped, asking the Night Demon Lolita beside him.

"The place you should go."

The Night Demon's voice changed.

"Go to the abode of all things, the dark palace of the heart of chaos, the throne beyond time and space, the final resting place of all souls."

That was no longer the voice of a child, nor the voice of a human being.

The figure, so close at hand, could barely be seen as a human-shaped black vortex.

However, the essence of the vortex is not darkness, but chaos that devours all light.

Furthermore, behind her unfolded a pair of bat-like wings with a span comparable to that of a cathedral. The membranous wings were covered with black patterns like blood vessels, and dozens of tentacles resembling withered tree roots hung from her abdomen. The thinnest one of them was wrapped around Amamiya Rin's wrist.

"Seriously, are you finally going to drop the pretense? Aren't you going to keep up the act?"

Looking at the Night Demon in this state, Amamiya Rin sighed.

He didn't mind playing along with the Night Demon for as long as possible. However, the Night Demon seemed to think she was about to achieve her goal, so she didn't intend to continue playing the good child.

"The game of make-believe is over. Let's go, Amamiya Rin, for I am Nyarlathotep, I am the lurking chaos, I am everywhere."

The Night Demon's tentacles wrapped around Amamiya Rin's waist, and with a powerful flap of its enormous bat wings, it carried the two of them into the endless void ahead.

A feeling of weightlessness instantly swept over her body. Looking down, Yu Gonglin saw that the gray-white wasteland at the end of the world was rapidly shrinking, eventually becoming an invisible speck of dust.

They traversed the endless void at breakneck speed, where the stars seemed to dance mockingly, constantly shifting their arrangement to form pale omens that foreshadowed destruction, making one wonder if anyone had ever seen these symbols before and been terrified by them; while the howling winds in the etheric world constantly spoke of the bewildering darkness and loneliness beyond the universe.

Faced with this situation, Amamiya Rin had a sense of déjà vu, and he vaguely understood the Night Demon's purpose and objective for this trip.

In "The Dream of Kadas," the incarnation of Loki is someone who was tricked by Nyarlathotep in the dream realm and taken to Azathoth. Fortunately, he jumped off the train along the way and was rescued by another Old God.

He has likely met the same fate, having to meet the supreme god of the Cthulhu Mythos.

However, he didn't understand why Night Demon would do this.

"Where are you taking me? Why?"

Amamiya Rin asked bluntly. His voice had no echo in the endless void, but it clearly rang in the Night Demon's ears.

"Your soul is marked with a curse in the thick fog of dreams; you are perfect food for the abyss."

The eerie blue flame in that three-lobed eye burst forth with blinding light, and the enormous bat entity let out a maniacal laugh that shook the void. It was no longer a disguised child's voice, but countless overlapping roars and whispers from every corner of the universe, men and women, young and old, echoing in the void with undisguised mockery and cruelty.

"As expected..."

Amamiya Rin sighed.

The destination was exactly as he had imagined, and the reason for it answered his question.

It was indeed due to the long dream, but... Amamiya Rin had a feeling that it was more than just a simple long dream.

"However, I don't want to face that person right now."

With a flat tone, Amamiya Rin grabbed Night Demon's hand and squeezed it tightly.

Night Demon couldn't help but turn around and look at Amamiya Rin, his eyes filled with curiosity.

Then, intense light burst forth in the endless void.

That was not ordinary light, but pure light itself, without any shadows or impurities, only purity and hope emerging from the depths of the heart, like the first ray of dawn breaking the heavens and the earth, like the first flame illuminating chaos, tearing apart the darkness and loneliness from all directions.

Amamiya Rin's form began to change; his outline began to blur, becoming transparent and dazzling, like a piece of melting gold, like a burning flame!

"No! My eyes!"

The Night Demon's three-lobed eyes twitched violently.

Her eyes were blinded by the light emanating from Amamiya Rin.

At the same time, she also saw that tiny human being disappearing, replaced by a majestic, enormous silhouette bathed in an endless sea of ​​light!

Its majestic body, interwoven with red and silver, with smooth and powerful lines, descended steadily into this chaotic void like a mountain.

The iconic dart on his head gleamed with sharp light, and the emerald green dot on his forehead stared at her with the depth of a third eye. His golden, hexagonal eyes held a resolve and tenacity she could not comprehend.

The giant of light! Ultraman Seven! Makes his grand entrance!

The Night Demon's maniacal laughter abruptly ceased the moment the light burst forth.

Her body convulsed violently as if it were being branded with a hot iron.

The enormous bat-like wings were now frantically flapping in the void, trying to escape the sudden light.

The tentacles that hung down on the abdomen, resembling withered tree roots, all convulsed and curled up, with wisps of black smoke beginning to emerge from the tip of the thinnest one.

However, the Night Demon was unable to leave.

Because Amamiya Rin and her hand were still clasped together.

Originally, Night Demon wanted to control Amamiya Rin to prevent her from escaping, or from other Great Old Ones or other incarnations coming to intercept her.

Now, however, it was Amamiya Rin who, to prevent the Night Demon from escaping, held onto her hand tightly.

"Let me go!"

The Night Demon let out a sharp screech.

Hanging down from her abdomen, thick tentacles swept across with the force to tear through the void, their ends exploding into a cloud of black mist in the light.

Amamiya Rin trembled, but the tentacle nearly disintegrated in the light.

Then, Amamiya Rin raised her left hand and clenched her fist.

"boom!!!"

A punch as heavy as a mountain slammed into Night Demon's chest.

The fist, imbued with light of utmost concentration, slammed down, causing a large section of the Night Demon's chest to cave in.

The dark matter that constituted her form rippled like pebbles thrown into water before exploding violently, sending countless black fragments flying in all directions, each fragment gradually annihilating in the void.

"Ugh—!"

The Night Demon let out a painful roar, her body arched violently, her huge bat-like wings flapped wildly in the void, and the tentacles hanging from her abdomen exploded as if burned, twitching wildly in the air.

She finally broke free.

No, it's not about breaking free!

Her wrist, which was being held, was completely broken.

There was no blood at the broken wound, only surging darkness and twisted tentacles. As soon as those tentacles were exposed to the light, they quickly carbonized and withered, eventually turning into ashes and scattering away.

"Because I am Nyarlathotep, I am the crawling chaos, I am everywhere. Pretty cool line, can you repeat it again?"

Amamiya Rin gazed at the Night Demon ahead, his calm tone carrying a hint of teasing.

Why did he follow Night Demon so easily?

On the one hand, it's because they genuinely worry about their subconscious mind destroying the city they've constructed in the dream world.

On the other hand, Nightmare's weaknesses are too obvious.

Light: Night Demon is extremely afraid of light. She only appears in complete darkness and can move in light levels below starlight. Any stronger light source, such as a flashlight or candle, will deal 1D6 damage per round. Strong light, such as a flashlight or searchlight, will deal 2D6 damage per round.

Although it's tabletop role-playing data, it's actually the same. Although the Cthulhu Mythos was born in modern times, and its scale has been greatly boosted by the development of modern science and worldviews, those Great Old Ones are not the all-rounders of modern fantasy works; they each have their own weaknesses.

Bubble's son was bitten to death by a dog, and the fact that Krypton is a weak ship is also a very famous joke.

The Night Demon's weakness is light. Amamiya Rin remembers that in the story where the Night Demon appeared, even a faint light could make it retreat, while a strong light was enough to banish it. It wanted to kill the protagonist, but was chased away by the light and fled into the darkness like a dog. In the end, the Night Demon was able to successfully kill the protagonist because a thunderstorm caused a blackout in the whole city, completely eliminating the obstruction of light.

If we're talking about light, what kind of light can surpass Ultraman's radiance?

Although I haven't recovered my form yet, when I'm giving it my all, do I still need to worry about my condition?

The giant of light took a step forward, his body radiating a strong white light that enveloped the Night Demon's body.

Her massive, dark body began to melt under the light.

It is not melting in a physical sense, but rather the dissolution of existence itself.

The dark matter that constituted her form melted away rapidly like snow under the scorching sun, with black mist constantly rising from its edges. The moment the mist touched the light, it was completely annihilated, leaving not a trace.

Night Demon hastily retreated.

Her body transformed into a black afterimage, retreating at a speed far exceeding any previous moment, fleeing into the deeper darkness.

Her semi-material form reached its peak at this moment, sometimes solid, sometimes transparent, sometimes piercing through the void, and in the blink of an eye, she was about to escape from Yu Gonglin's field of vision.

However, how could Amamiya Rin not be wary of the Night Demon escaping?

"Chain Beam!"

Amamiya Rin stood still, raised her hands, and formed a cross in front of her chest.

Golden light burst forth from the edges of their crossed arms, like golden lightning, shooting towards the Night Demon in the distance!

"laugh--!!!"

The beam struck the Night Demon's back, exploding into countless tiny golden electric snakes. These snakes spread wildly along her massive, dark body, forming an impenetrable net of light that enveloped her.

Night Demon's body suddenly stiffened.

Its entire body was like an insect frozen in amber, suspended in mid-air, unable to move.

"How could such a thing happen?"

Night Demon could not understand how, as an omniscient evil god, he could find himself in such a predicament when facing a human.

This is not normal! This is absolutely not normal!

"While I am very grateful for your help, which granted me the power to freely enter and exit dreams, as an evil god, you are also prepared to be destroyed, aren't you?"

Amamiya Rin pulled his right fist to his waist and held his left palm flat in front of his chest.

Energy gathered from his entire body to his forehead, and the emerald green light became incredibly bright and intense, making the Night Demon feel threatened with destruction.
