Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 56 Werewolves

"Transformation."

"Awoo!"

"Bang!"

As the trams whizzed past the apartment building, Jiro rushed forward only to be grabbed by Natsukawa's sharp claws. His white armor gleamed under the tram lights and streetlights, making him look like a warrior from another world.

"What?"

The wolf's arm twisted, and in excruciating pain, it was unable to move forward or backward. Its other hand was also held by Xia Chuan, so it could only open its wolf mouth, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth to bite and attack.

"Bang!"

Another dull thud echoed as the werewolf was sent flying backward, crashing painfully into a parked car.

"You bastard!"

He flung aside the shattered windshield beneath him, and, enraged, glared at Xia Chuan, panting heavily on all fours like a wild beast.

The power of Ixa is truly astounding.

However, being merely a human, his strength was completely overshadowed by the clothing he wore.

This power should have belonged to him too!

"Da da".

Xia Chuan approached through the puddles, drew his only special move, the Whistle, inserted it into the belt's loading port, and pulled out the IXA punch amidst sparks.

Killing the second wolf might change the future, but it won't have much impact on him.

"Stop! Who are you?" Suddenly, a deep, solemn voice rang in Xia Chuan's ears, almost identical to the slightly hoarse voice of the old man, Ci Lang.

"Um?"

Xia Chuan looked around in confusion, and when he turned back, Ci Lang had already turned into a blue afterimage and disappeared into the night.

"What's going on...?"

"Whoosh!"

After standing still for a moment, Xia Chuan put away the ixa fist gun, silently deactivated his transformation while watching the direction where Jiro had fled.

The future second wolf?

The world of Kiva is quite strange. The timelines of 1986 and 2008 can influence each other, and the future Wolf seems to be in charge of the portal to the time tunnel.

A cold wind blew by, and Xia Chuan turned and walked towards the apartment building. Suddenly, he felt a faint sense of fatigue, and his fingers flickered with electricity.

"Sizzle!"

The Ixa system appears to be powered by some kind of high-intensity battery energy; is this due to side effects?

Xia Chuan releases electrical energy by touching the wall with his fingers.

The Ixa system couldn't harm him, but it consumed a lot of his energy, reducing it by about one-fifth after just a few transformations.

It seems that the transformation abilities and D-rank recovery power of all the Riders are not without their costs.

but.

It seems that it wasn't just ixa that affected him.

One-fifth of his physical strength wasn't enough to make him feel tired.

Xia Chuan turned his head and clearly saw the figure in a suit reflected in the advertising window.

What caused the time-space continuum in the instance?

If traveling through time depletes the physical and mental energy of this world, then there will be a serious problem.

He probably won't be able to stay for very long.

……

"The person wearing pink was attacked?"

At noon the next day.

Inside the café where the Blue Sky Club was holding an event, Shima Mamoru, having received the news, reconvened the members. Upon arriving, Natsukawa overheard Aso Yuri inquiring about the situation.

"Yes," Shima-go nodded, arms crossed. "Only clothes were left at the scene. It must have been done by the Fang Blood Demon. Seven people have been killed in just one morning. This is the first time I've ever encountered a Fang Blood Demon who acts so wantonly."

Generally speaking, vampires don't eat too frequently, and they usually do so in secrecy, rarely committing violence on the streets.

After a moment's thought, Shimamoto turned to Natsukawa and asked, "Kaminaga, could you go and investigate?"

"no problem."

Xia Chuan ordered omelet rice just like yesterday, and as soon as he sat down, he saw Ci Lang coming out of the kitchen.

This guy dared to show his face after his identity was exposed. Is it because he's fast enough to run away at any time?

"I'll help too!" Yuri Aso jumped up.

"Seven people? You'd better be careful. Not all Fang Vampires are as easy to deal with as before."

Cilang warned Aso Yuri, then awkwardly avoided Natsukawa's gaze and turned away to pick up his coffee cup.

"Besides, those guys might be hiding right among us..."

"That's quite unusual," the island guard said, glancing at the wolf with a strange expression. "What's wrong with you today? You're acting different than usual."

"It's nothing."

The wolf squinted as he savored his coffee.

"It was just something I felt compelled to say."

"That's a bit strange," Akane pondered, circling the wolf with a playful expression. "What? Has it turned from a monster wolf into a puppy?"

"Get out of here."

The wolf gritted its teeth, barely managing to suppress the murderous intent in its heart.

"Why does someone who can't even drink coffee keep coming to coffee shops?"

"Haha, of course I'll be wherever Yuri is."

"snort."

Cilang glanced coldly at the grinning Hongyinye before pushing open the door and walking out of the coffee shop.

"I'll go check it out first; maybe I'll run into them."

in the afternoon.

Natsukawa went to the scene of the incident alone with a mission to investigate. Before he found anything, he saw Aso Yuri, who had changed into a cherry blossom pink coat.

"I said I would help you," Aso Yuri said, bracing herself to meet Natsukawa's gaze. "Besides, it will be easier to find that Blood Fang Demon this way."

Natsukawa watched quietly as Aso Yuri acted as bait.

It must be said that the female lead is indeed very beautiful, possessing the aesthetic of Showa-era cities, but she is different from the "fashionable" women walking on the street. She dresses simply, without messy hairstyles or wide-shouldered clothes.

He's just a bit stubborn.

"Is it really necessary to risk your life like this?" Xia Chuan shook his head slightly and followed. "If we really attract the Fang Blood Demon, I might not be able to save you in time."

As a young girl of only 20 years old, Yuri Aso almost completely gave up her personal life and was active on the front line as a Blue Sky Society warrior before ixa appeared.

From beginning to end, all he relied on was a transformable weapon that could barely damage the Fang Vampires: the Fang Vampire Slayer.

He had glanced at the weapon; it consisted of two parts: a sword for close combat and a metal whip for ranged attacks.

Putting aside how much of a threat they pose to the vampires, they could also injure themselves if they're not careful.

It is said that Yuri Aso suffered many injuries when she first joined the Blue Sky Association.

At the time, Yuri Aso was just a high school student, but in two years she not only mastered the Fang Vampire Slayer but also developed a superhuman physique through intense training.

"You really don't look like a 20-year-old girl at all right now." Xia Chuan's gaze swept over a student couple passing by on the roadside.

"Because I can't live without doing this," Yuri Aso pursed her lips and continued walking as if she were a passerby. "Mr. Kaminaga, you don't need to worry about me. I'm willing to do anything as long as I can help."

"Whatever you want."

Xia Chuan's gaze shifted back and forth among the pedestrians.

Toothless vampires have long lifespans, making them very difficult to identify unless you spend a lot of time with them.

In terms of strength alone, this race is far more troublesome than the Gurongi.

How long would it take to get something like this?

Seeing that there was no movement around, Xia Chuan stopped outside a beverage shop.

"Have something to drink first."

"asshole."

On the street in the square, Cilang gritted his teeth and peered in. After seeing Xia Chuan and Aso Yuri enter the beverage shop together, he punched a nearby cement pillar hard.

Just then, a tall man in a black leather jacket walked past, with medium-length hair and a strong physique, carrying a cup of ice cream jelly as he headed towards the park's woods.

"What?"

The wolf's body suddenly trembled, and he stared intently at the man's hand and the Vampire IV officer's crest on the back of his leather jacket.

"It's this guy!"

Rook, one of the four most powerful fanged vampires, was the murderer who slaughtered his people.

The wolf, breathing heavily and with red eyes, chased after them into the woods.

"I've finally found you! I will avenge my entire clan!!"
