Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 630 Superpowers

Port area.

Police car lights flashed, and many reporters took photos of the white, human-shaped burn marks on the ground. Various versions of the story spread among the onlookers.

A bespectacled young man in overalls stood outside the crowd with a complex expression, as if he could hear the dying roars and grievances of the Kirielod people in his mind.

Lipia, you will definitely not have a good ending!

You are the real devil!

Only we Kirieloids can save humanity. You'll regret this!

[Hahaha, the god Kirieloid has abandoned this planet; humanity is doomed to destruction!]

"That's a terrifying superpower."

The young man pushed up his glasses, put his hands behind his back, and quietly left, his eyes revealing a wisdom and weariness that seemed to have seen through everything.

As a natural-born sensory superhuman, he is able to hear and see more and more as he grows older, including the future of humanity destroyed by darkness.

He had always known of the existence of the Kirieloids, and even knew that these guys had some kind of connection to the Dark Resurrection.

But he was completely powerless to stop it; he couldn't do anything about it.

He was useless except for his senses; even his own existence was denied by humanity. He was bullied as a monster from a young age and was forced to learn to hide himself.

He lived as an ordinary wage slave, hiding from humans and Kirieloids, until Tiga first appeared.

He observed Ultraman Tiga from afar for a long time, and just when he thought he knew enough about the Titans, a new Titan appeared.

The name announced by the Victory Team is "Ultraman Lypia".

Even now, he still hasn't been able to see through this Lipia.

If Ultraman Tiga is more like a human, then Ripia is more like a deity visiting the human world.

"Perhaps it's time to meet," the bespectacled young man muttered to himself.

Of course, it wasn't a meeting with Ripia, but rather with those so-called Kamen Riders whom Ripia valued.

He indirectly conveyed his thoughts through the knights, and also did what he could to help.

As for why they didn't speak directly to Lipia, it wasn't out of fear, but simply because they weren't ready yet.

……

"Have you heard the story of Obik? Recently..."

The night grew deeper.

Hikono Town.

The stories of radio broadcasts on the streets late at night continue.

A taxi drove through the old neighborhood and saw red lanterns hanging from buckwheat noodle carts in the distance, along with the delicious aroma of noodles that made one's mouth water.

The driver was suddenly jolted awake, feeling as if the red lanterns in the darkness were leading him to hell, but upon closer inspection, they seemed perfectly normal.

"That's it," Shinjo yawned, then perked up again. "Park over there!"

Takumi and Emu, who were on the back of the car, looked over and subconsciously frowned.

Instead of making a special trip here to treat us, we might as well go back and eat the captain's cooking.

I really shouldn't have come.

"It's not that I'm stingy, it's just that this is the only place that has food late at night," Shinjo emphasized. "Sometimes it's in these small places that you find the real delicious food. Ever watched Midnight Diner?"

"Sir," the taxi driver hesitated, "it's best to be careful. I've heard that recently many people in this area have encountered the legendary monster Obik. If you're not careful, you might get eaten."

"What monster?" Shinjo smiled helplessly. "If someone had really been eaten, our Victory Team would have been out in force long ago."

"Are you from the Victory Team?" The driver was surprised, but still reminded him anxiously, "I heard it from the old folks. If you see Obik shouting 'Play with me' behind you at night, never turn around."

"Don't worry, I have this."

Xincheng patted the Ladysmith pistol he was carrying in plainclothes.

"If that Obik dares to show up, I'll make him pay..."

"Come play with me, play with Obik~"

A plaintive child's voice suddenly rang out behind him. Shinjo, who had been so confident just moments before, suddenly shuddered and almost dropped his pistol. Only then did he realize that it was Asuka Shin playing a prank.

"You brat, what are you yelling about?" Xincheng turned around fiercely.

"I was just trying to lighten the mood," Asuka Shin said innocently. "I heard that's how Obik shouts, who knew you were such a coward?"

"I...I was so surprised! Kids shouldn't play pranks!"

"Tsk."

"What does 'tsk' mean? Kids these days..."

"call!"

The old man in white wiped the stove with a rag. Through the rising steam, he glanced at the noisy Xincheng, his fingers trembling uncontrollably.

Oh my god, why are they coming this way?

Don't come any closer, go away...

We really made it through!

"Uncle, three bowls of noodles, please," Xincheng said, sitting down in front of the stall and casually pointing to Fei Niao Xin. "This kid gets half a bowl."

"I have money."

Asuka slammed a banknote onto the stove and glanced at Shinjo defiantly.

Because of his short stature, he could see the old man in white's face covered in sweat.

"Grandpa, your hands are shaking."

"Is...is there?" The old man wiped his face and chuckled dryly. "I'm sorry, I was just about to close up shop. Today is...okay, almost done."

Noticing the faint red light flashing in Shinjo's eyes, the old man turned around and, under the strange gazes of Taisho and the others, opened the pot lid to scoop water.

Three bowls of steaming hot buckwheat noodles were quickly cooked, but in the end, Asuka Shin only had half a bowl left.

"Old man," Asuka Shin said unhappily, "I already told you I have money!"

"Hehe, kids shouldn't eat too much at night."

Shinjo teased, wanting to discuss the alien armor with Onoe and Takumi, but hesitated to bring it up.

"What are your plans next? Continue searching for monsters?"

"No, you're right, the monster is still too dangerous for us."

After a night of turmoil, Emu Hosho has calmed down.

Not everyone can advance through life and death like Fujiwara Saiji; if you're unlucky, you might really die.

The parasitic monster Magnia is quite special; it parasitizes and controls humans, and apart from absorbing energy, it causes almost no harm to its host.

"I have new plans."

As he spoke, Emu Hojo opened his handheld computer, showing everyone the game's completion page and revealing a smile that said, "I'm in control of everything."

"A computer game arcade has recently opened in Tokyo. You can only get an invitation ticket by completing a challenge. Only top-level computer game players can go there. I want to go and check it out."

"You're still amazing."

Onoue Takumi chimed in with a sigh.

This guy always has a strong sense of confidence when it comes to games.

"As expected of the genius gamer M, no game can stump you."

"I'm not an M," Hojo Emu said with a wry smile. "I just can't play this kind of real-world game called 'Dungeon.'"

"Now isn't the time to go to the arcade to play games, is it?" Shinjo asked doubtfully. "I can arrange for you to train at the base..."

"It's not simply about playing games."

Emu Hosho closed his laptop and continued eating his noodles.

"I'm just very interested in the system there."
