Entertainment to the death, make a tokusatsu film that will crush the entire internet.

After defeating Aura, Frilian and her two companions continued their journey north.

Frilian, Philon, and Shutark arrive in Sword Village.

A village that has guarded the sword of the hero for generations.

The current village chief received Frilian and her two companions.

At this moment, Shutark recalled a legend.

Legend has it that 80 years ago, the hero Simmel drew his sword here.

No, that's not it.

Frillie shook her head.

"Simmel did not draw the sword of the hero."

The audience at this moment.

"???"

"What's going on? Simmel didn't draw the Hero's Sword?"

"But isn't Simmel a hero? Didn't he defeat the Demon King?"

Amid the audience's confusion.

The story unfolds 80 years ago.

Young Simmel attempted to draw his sword in the presence of the village chief.

He stepped forward and grasped the hilt of the sword.

Use force—

The sword remained completely still.

Push harder—

It remained completely still.

He was not a hero capable of drawing his sword.

The former village chief looked disappointed.

"This hero isn't a true hero either."

Young Simmel released his grip, but his face showed no sign of frustration or shame.

He turned around.

She even had a slight smile on her face.

"So what if he's a fake hero?"

"I will defeat the Demon King."

"I will reclaim world peace."

"In that case, it doesn't matter whether it's true or false."

The rest of the story is well-known.

Simmel and his companions, after many hardships, defeated the evil king and saved the world.

He is a hero celebrated by the world, a hero who drew the holy sword.

But he was not chosen by fate at first.

At this moment, all the audience members were shocked!

"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap, I can't hold back my tears anymore!"

"Simmel! My God!!!"

"The stories I've read before all featured chosen ones selected by the sword, and now you're telling me that true heroes don't need swords at all?!"

"Guangda, you...you're too good at this."

Simmel: If the sword does not recognize me, then I will make the world recognize me.

"Now that Simmel has defeated the Demon King, how will you prove that your sword is the sword of the hero?"

Sword: I've become a clown?

"This wave, this wave, is a complete demystification of the 'Hero of Destiny' narrative."

"A hero is not defined, but forged through their own actions."

Office of the Land of Light.

Yang Qian leaned back in her chair and slowly let out a sigh of relief.

On the screen in front of him was the trending list that had gone viral after the release of the latest episode of "The Burial of Frillian".

#A hero needs no definition#

#Without a sword, I am still a hero#

#Simmel, the true hero#

#TearsInSwordHomeland#

Major forums, online communities, and video comment sections are filled with in-depth discussions and tributes to the spirit of Simmel, the swordless hero.

"Simmel, I really, I'm crying my eyes out."

"I used to think that heroes were chosen ones, but Simmel told me that's not the case."

"Guangda, your skill in creating characters... I'm truly impressed."

"He redefined the word 'hero' through his actions."

It was worth spending so much time and effort to portray Simmel.

Even though he has never actually appeared on screen, he has become an irreplaceable hero in the hearts of countless viewers.

As long as Simmel is there...

The genre of heroes will never have any rivals again.

"Director Yang."

Su Xiaoran pushed the door open and came in.

"The trending topics for 'Frilian' are still rising. Weibo contacted us, asking if we could arrange an interview with the creators next week..."

"We'll see."

Yang Qian waved her hand.

"Now is not the time."

Su Xiaoran was stunned for a moment.

"You mean...?"

Yang Qian did not answer directly.

He opened another folder.

A title popped up on the screen.

Ultraman Leo.

"The other projects are all progressing as planned."

"But on the Ultra Universe side..."

He paused.

"The audience needs a new Ultraman."

Su Xiaoran immediately understood.

"Are you going to release Leo at this point?"

"Um."

The cover features a silhouette of a solitary, proud lion.

Behind me was a shattered sunset and a burning city.

"The Lonely Lion..."

He said softly.

"It's time for them to make their appearance."

Su Xiaoran remained silent for a moment.

She certainly knew what "Ultraman Leo" meant.

If we say that Taro is the most beloved youngest of the Ultra Brothers, the prince of the Land of Light who was protected and nurtured by his older brothers as he grew up, then Taro is the most beloved of the Ultra Brothers.

So, Leo—

That would be another extreme.

A warrior who has lost his homeland fights alone on a strange earth.

Without the timely support of the Ultra Brothers, and without their all-powerful beam attacks, they were left without the Ultra Brothers' support.

Only flesh and blood, and an indomitable will.

"...The audience has just recovered from the gentleness of 'Frilian'."

Su Xiaoran said softly.

"Am I about to get stabbed by Leo again?"

Yang Qian glanced at her.

A subtle smile played at the corners of his lips.

"Who said Leo is a knife?"

Su Xiaoran: "..."

She did not speak.

But those eyes clearly said:

Do you believe it yourself?

Yang Qian did not explain.

He looked again at the silhouette of the lion on the screen.

L77 Nebula, destroyed.

The eyes of Leo burn.

Fengyuan, kneel down.

"I want to make Earth my second home."

That was a sentence he wrote in his notebook a long time ago, after he first finished reading "Leo".

Now, it's time for the world's audience to see that lion.

"Oh, right."

Yang Qian suddenly remembered something.

"When Taro ended, we included a cameo scene featuring Kotaro and Yusuke Godai in the end credits."

"The audience response was very positive."

He paused.

"Let's bury one here too, Leo."

"Bury what?"

Yang Qian thought for a moment.

"When Fengyuan first came to Earth, he didn't speak the cherry blossom language very well."

"He needs someone to help him adapt to human life."

"This person—"

He smiled slightly.

"Let Hayata come in and act."

"Consider it... a senior taking care of a junior."

Su Xiaoran was taken aback.

Immediately, his expression became subtle.

"Director Yang."

"Um?"

"Are you... laying the groundwork for a future gathering of the Ultra Brothers?"

Yang Qian did not answer.

He simply picked up his teacup and gently blew on the floating leaves.

"I just feel—"

"A lion should not fight alone."

Even though he always thought he had to fight alone.

Su Xiaoran understood, and she didn't ask any more questions.

"I see."

She turned and left.

The office fell silent again.

Yang Qian looked out the window.

He recalled the latest episode of "Frilian," and the figure of the hero without the sword turning and leaving.

I also thought of the lion that was about to appear.

The brave do not need the Holy Sword certification.

Heroes are not born strong.

"This is the story I wanted to tell."

He murmured to himself.

In the city, countless viewers had just recovered from the tearful experience of watching "Frilian".

I was scrolling through the #HeroXimmel# hashtag on Weibo's trending topics again and again.

they do not know.

A new knife—

No, new warriors.

It's already on its way.
