Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 475 The Yeti

night.

The city streets were deserted, and the occasional whistling of the wind could be heard from the dark woods nearby, as if a woman were walking among them.

After a busy day, Xiaotian was driving home in his car, wondering what to eat when a sudden gust of cold air emanated from the road ahead.

"Beep—!"

As the long, sharp whistle blared, a large amount of snow buried the car body, and the white-haired Yeti could be vaguely seen rushing towards it as the wipers swept across the windshield.

"Bang!!"

The car swerved and crashed heavily into a roadside wall, leaving only a woman in a windbreaker shivering and wandering aimlessly in the snow.

"It's so cold, what's wrong with me?"

The woman turned to look at the unconscious driver inside the car, and raised her hands, which were surrounded by cold air, in a trembling voice.

"Help me..."

"ah--!"

……

"Can't reach the editor-in-chief?"

the next day.

Mei Sudo had just visited Touma, who was in a bad mood, when she received a call from the editorial department.

"Yes, someone saw the Snow Woman last night. We wanted to notify the editor-in-chief, but we couldn't get through on the phone," the editor-in-chief said worriedly from the other end of the line.

"I'll go check it out," Mei Sudo hurriedly ended the call. "I know where the editor-in-chief is camping."

"Snow Woman?"

When Touma snapped out of his drowsiness and was about to say something, he suddenly saw Yuri lingering outside the bookstore, seemingly wanting to come in but also hesitant about something.

"It's that man who can turn into a sword!"

"Mr. Yuri?"

"What are you doing here?" Sudo Mei almost bumped into Yuri, who was pacing back and forth, and couldn't help but ask in surprise, "If you want to find Touma, just go into the bookstore."

"Cough, it's definitely not that I'm afraid to go in."

Yuri responded instinctively, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the hurried Sudo Mei.

"A long time ago, there was a forbidden technique that could turn humans into Megido. Now, the prerequisites for that forbidden technique have appeared."

"What?" Sudo Mei didn't react immediately. "I just wanted to go see our editor-in-chief..."

"That's the problem. Although you closed the path to the Catalogue of the Omniscient and Omnipotent Book in time, too many humans still ended up connected to the fantasy world because of it. The editor-in-chief was one of them."

Yuri looked serious as he approached the bookstore, gazing at the sky. He abruptly pulled back just before crossing the threshold.

"Editor-in-Chief?" Sudo Mei's expression changed drastically.

Recently, Editor-in-Chief Xue Jie has indeed seemed preoccupied, often gazing at the sky from the window as if she could see something.

That's probably why we went camping.

Thinking of this, Sudo Mei hurriedly flipped through the map.

The Snow Woman was discovered right near the editor-in-chief's camping area.

"How could this be? Could it be...?"

"I never said that Yuki-onna is your editor-in-chief."

Yuri glanced at the unsteady-footed Sudo Mei out of the corner of his eye.

"Megido can now use humans to continuously create and modify books. If this continues, he will eventually be able to awaken the omniscient and omnipotent book. If I were you, I would immediately try to stop it, instead of being discouraged here because of the hostility of other swordsmen. Worrying will not save the world."

Fei Yuzhen, who came out of the bookstore to greet them, looked embarrassed.

Suddenly being seen as a traitor, his former comrades turned against him, refusing to listen to his explanations and disbelieving that there was something wrong with the Sword of Truth... These events certainly dealt him a significant blow.

But did he look dejected?

"Ya, I'll go with you," Touma said, locking the shop door.

Mr. Yuri neither confirmed nor denied the relationship between Yuki-onna and the editor-in-chief.

……

Mountainous jungle.

When Sudo Megumi found the campsite using the location, there was only a tent covered in ice and snow, with frost all around and no sign of melting.

"It's Xue-jie's backpack!" Sudo Mei exclaimed as she rushed to the tent.

Not only the backpack, but also the GPS-enabled phone was left in the grass.

"As expected, they've been targeted by Megiddo."

Yuri calmly surveyed the scene, looking out into the jungle along one of the frost-covered paths.

Most of the tree trunks along the road showed signs of frostbite, as if one could see a monster with the power of ice and snow rampaging through the area.

"By placing blank books inside human bodies, we can use human power to create modified books. We need to hurry; you must kill that editor-in-chief before the modified books are completed."

"What?"

Mei Sudo stared back at Yuri with wide eyes, not understanding how he could say such a thing so calmly.

"Do you want to kill Sister Xue?"

“Killing someone can also be a way of saving them,” Yuri said matter-of-factly as he walked ahead. “It’s the only thing a swordsman can do.”

"What are you talking about? If that's the case, then Sister Xue will..."

"roar--!"

Suddenly a roar came from the other side of the woods, snowflakes and ice crystals came with the wind, and the air temperature dropped sharply.

The Detection Book that Sudo Mei kept in her bag also emitted a golden warning light at any time.

"Whoosh!"

"Sister Xue?"

While Touma was transforming and rushing forward, Mei Sudo stared blankly at the monster that was running like a white-haired ape.

The snow monster is not a snow woman, but a legendary snow man.

"Help me..."

Amidst the howling wind and snow, the man continued his rampage, and the image of the publishing house's editor-in-chief pleading for help appeared in the open book on his chest.

"It really is Yuki-nee, what do we do?" Sudo Mei anxiously gripped her sleeve. "Can't we separate Yuki-nee from the reformation book?"

"We can give it a try, but the fusion level isn't very high right now."

Yuri stood aside without making a move, observing and contemplating Touma's battle while his eyes warily swept towards the back of the woods.

It is said that the three originators who control Megiddo are the ones who created the Snowman this time. The one who controls the mythical beast theme is "Raziel".

"Has the Sword of Light already appeared?"

Raziel, noticing Yuri's gaze, made her appearance.

"Our plan has entered the next phase, and you are not allowed to sabotage it."

"Thousands of years have passed, and you haven't changed much." Yuri knew Raziel's power, but his expression remained calm.

As the original five originators, they obtained a portion of the main power of the omniscient and omnipotent book, and it is not an exaggeration to call them demigods.

However, as the Sword of Light, he was not afraid of this guy.

In battle, the Holy Sword is far more powerful.

"It's my turn to go on stage."

Out of the corner of his eye, Yuri glanced at Touma "Saint Blade" chasing Yukio on the other side, and calmly took out the Sacred Sword Driver.

"The brightest! Shining!"

"Transform!"

……

evening.

Mei Sudo walked alone through the book door into the empty North District base.

The daytime battle ended inconclusively. With her hands tied, Fei Yu Zhen was unable to save Xue Jie and could only watch as Raziel led the Yeti to retreat.

"With so much information here, there should be a solution, right?"

Sudo Mei looked uncertainly at the two-story bookshelf in the base, and the image of the whiteboard sword in the Kamiyama Bookstore flashed uncontrollably through her mind again.
