Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 104 Kalis is an undead creature

graduate School.

Junichi Shimura changed into a suit and sat in the lounge, occasionally pressing his chest and abdomen in pain.

A day passed, and the pain not only did not lessen, but actually worsened.

Kalis... or perhaps he should be called the Joker.

Their strength is truly beyond expectations.

It's almost comparable to a level 5 knight.

Even the legendary Kuuga and Dark Kiva are nothing special, right?

Junichi Shimura reluctantly took out his artificial Category A card.

Cerberus, the three-headed dog.

Although there are currently three artificial Cerberus cards in total, the one he has is different.

He could sense a power within it that far surpassed that of other undead creatures.

However, that's not enough to deal with Kalis.

At least his current fusion coefficient is not good enough.

Should we call the other two back?

Those two guys are a bit unreliable, but they're still somewhat valuable as cannon fodder.

Compared to his current plan, other freak systems have to be relegated to a lower priority.

Only the undead can obtain eternal life.

"Captain, you wanted to see me?"

After finishing his patrol, Kenzaki Kazuma rushed back to Shimura Junichi's side immediately.

His gains these past few days have been quite good; his combat power has steadily increased, and he even successfully sealed two undead creatures using the 3 and 5 of spades he obtained from Kalis.

One of them happens to be a Spade 4 Hog card, which enhances its charge power.

Shouldn't that make it possible to fight Kalis?

"I've seen your recent growth, it's very good," Junichi Shimura nodded with a smile, "but this is not enough, this won't be enough to deal with Kalis."

"Captain, I still don't think Kalis is our enemy," Kenzaki Kazuma said, troubled.

"You don't understand at all, Kenzaki."

Junichi Shimura groaned, pressed his chest and abdomen, and shook his head solemnly.

"Kalis is definitely an undead creature. That guy not only sealed away other undead creatures, but he even tried to kill me. He might have already killed some knights!"

"How could that be?" Kenzaki Kazuma's eyes widened slightly. "I don't think Kalis would kill a knight..."

"In fact, I have already fought him. When I was preparing to seal an undead creature, I heard him communicating with the undead creature, and he even protected that undead creature."

Junichi Shimura opened his clothes, revealing sword wounds and bruises from kicks.

"This is what Kalis did, Kenzaki. Undead are not human, and their thinking is different from humans. Don't trust them blindly. Don't forget how many people have been killed because of undead these past few days."

Seeing Kenzaki Kazuma fall silent, Shimura Junichi shook his head, stood up, and gently patted his shoulder.

"In short, be careful and don't contact him for now. I'll figure out another way to get the spade set back for you!"

……

Shopping Street.

The taiyaki shop reopened after two days of renovations.

Natsukawa changed into a white chef's uniform, took out freshly baked strawberry taiyaki from the oven, and even though she was wearing a mask, she still enjoyed the fragrant steam.

He had wanted to do this for a long time.

The school now has an Island Rising class, and the students and other Riders deal with the monsters. If they can't handle them, there's also the Fang Bat II to help.

Unlike before, he no longer needs to take action against even the slightly troublesome oddballs.

Suddenly, there was much more time.

Whether he wants to be a hero or not, he still has to live his own life.

"Fujiko, hang the sign up." Natsukawa shouted at the tomboy without turning his head.

"understood."

The tomboy pouted and responded listlessly, then reluctantly picked up a "50% off today" sign and hung it outside the store.

"50% off... What are you thinking?"

She really couldn't understand her father, who actually let a customer help take care of the shop.

Are you sure you're not just trying to get a few days' worth of desserts for free?

And it's even 50% off!

The store has never offered discounts before.

"Stop talking nonsense and come help me."

Natsukawa was the first to bring out a large plate of taiyaki (fish-shaped fritters).

When it comes to making taiyaki, the tomboy is actually quite good, but he can't meet his father's expectations, so he gradually starts to slack off.

"Do you know the difference between your taiyaki and the boss's? The difference is in the feeling."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah," the tomboy pouted, "Feelings? You can't develop feelings from eating a taiyaki!"

"Of course you can taste it."

Xia Chuan looked at the customers who had come after hearing the news.

"The taiyaki at this shop is special because it changes every day. The weather, season, environment... all the flavor trends are within your father's consideration. Sweetness, softness, cooking time... almost every day is the best combination."

The tomboy opened his mouth, but in the end, he couldn't say anything and could only obediently go to the counter to sell goods.

Despite my reluctance to admit it, Natsukawa's taiyaki was indeed quite good.

"I didn't expect you to be so capable. If you're so talented, why don't you open your own shop?"

"This is my first time learning to make taiyaki."

"Ha, were you born with this skill? How could you possibly do it so well on your first try?"

"I guess that's what talent is."

"You're kidding me."

The tomboy was busy packing and rolled her eyes at Xia Chuan.

"By the way, uncle, Fujiko is the name my dad gave me, and it's not good at all. My name is Mirai."

Xia Chuan ignored the tomboy and focused his attention on a small television in the corner.

With the emergence of undead creatures, the calculation of knight points has become more complex, and seals have also been included in the points system. However, considering the possibility of duplicate seals, the calculation rules are different from those for kills.

Kalis quietly climbed onto the knight rankings, ranking third, behind Dark Kiva.

The data remains a question mark.

It's unclear who is in charge of compiling the statistics for the Cavaliers Challenger Tournament's performance rankings. It doesn't seem to be the league or a private corporation, otherwise someone would have approached them long ago.

"The power of greatness?"

Xia Chuan's eyes flickered slightly.

The Knights Challenge certainly holds many secrets; the only question is how to become the ultimate victor.

If it's a wish that can affect the current world and can fulfill anything, he wouldn't mind getting involved.

"You're interested in the knight rankings too?" The tomboy glanced at the small TV. "This world is terrible; even undead creatures are on the list..."

"An undead creature?" Xia Chuan looked slightly taken aback.

"Don't you know? It's all over the news. This Kalis is actually an undead knight, and I heard he's killed a lot of people."

"Murder, were there any witnesses?"

"I don't know, but several knights said they were attacked and injured by Kalis while on patrol," the tomboy said, shaking his head.

"Yeah?"

Xia Chuan looked back at the television screen.

Indeed, both the host and the guest commentator expressed fear at the inclusion of Kalis on the list.

He hadn't paid much attention to these things these past few days, yet Kalis's reputation had gotten so bad.

Or was it a frame-up by other undead creatures, or...?

The image of Junichi Shimura flashed through Natsukawa's mind.

Aside from other undead beings, only Junichi Shimura knew about Kalis.

Which side will it be?

He doesn't care much about Kalis's reputation, but that doesn't mean he doesn't care about troublemakers.
