Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 658 Symbols of Friendship

Tadanoya.

A stack of monster cards was casually placed on the coffee table.

A few beams of sunlight shone through the gaps in the curtains, illuminating the room. The patterns on the cards gleamed, and eerie laughter echoed, as if the cards were about to leap out at any moment.

Unlike the cards the knights exchanged, the original monster cards collected by Xia Chuan seemed to have a life of their own, and their aura was slowly increasing without anyone noticing.

"It's said that the man who lost his composure near the station yesterday was the legendary Mr. Kondo. What are everyone's thoughts on his shout about Lipia?"

"How could anyone do such a shameful thing in the street?"

The sound from the living room TV was intermittent, perhaps due to the power of the card, and the screen was full of static and noise.

After GG ended, Reiko Yoshii was invited to appear on a KCB interview program.

"Was Ms. Yoshii there at the time?"

"That's right," the short-haired female reporter smiled sullenly. "I think Mr. Kondo may have seen something. According to him, Lypia is actually the name of that giant from outer space from a few days ago."

"I see. Mr. Kondo is quite an extraordinary person, he even knows the name of a giant."

"Well."

Reiko Yoshii smiled wryly and echoed the host.

She wouldn't have wanted to come at all if it weren't for the station's leadership's request.

For some reason, she always felt that Kondo Isami was just an unlucky good-for-nothing, and what she really cared about was Fujimiya Hiroya, who was currently out of contact with her.

I initially thought Kondo Isami might have some clues, but...

"Speaking of which, Mr. Kondo seems to have failed his interview again, right?" the host said with a smile.

"Yes, yes."

"Beep!"

Xia Chuan picked up the remote and turned off the TV. He then went over and put away the increasingly bizarre monster cards, and the strange phenomena in the living room immediately disappeared.

He is simply unaffected by the darkness, but he cannot erase the fact that darkness exists.

It's better to store these things in the system space.

Fortunately, the anomaly did not spread outside.

I walked to the window and gently parted the curtains, revealing even brighter sunlight inside.

Special Investigation Team member Ryuichi Senuma was still at the intersection, seemingly having been keeping watch all night. He was yawning and calling out to Gamu Takayama as she passed by.

After exchanging a few words, Takayama Gamu walked straight towards the Tadano house.

Xia Chuan withdrew her gaze and loosened the curtains.

As long as it doesn't affect Xiaohui's side, it's not a big problem. My dream coming to him is exactly what he wanted.

Compared to these special search team members, he preferred to interact with the simple-minded Imu.

"Ding-dong!"

I hesitated as I pressed the doorbell, wondering how to communicate with them, when the door opened almost simultaneously.

"Mr. Tadano..."

"Come in."

Xia Chuan drew back the living room curtains, watched the special search team's vehicle leave, then turned around and gave Meng a bottle of strawberry milk.

"Hot water or this?"

"This is it."

I hurriedly took the milk, subconsciously glanced around, and my gaze lingered briefly on the coffee table.

Even though the room was bathed in sunlight after I drew back the curtains, I don't know why it felt a bit cold and gloomy.

"Mr. Tadano..."

Just call me Liang.

"Uh, Senior Liang."

Looking at Xia Chuan, who seemed to have just woken up, I nervously rubbed my fingers together, coughed a few times, and then sat up straight to ask.

"Last night...it was Ryo-senpai who eliminated the demon Onijuro's last bit of power, right? That kid said in his dream the demon suddenly screamed and was sucked away."

He didn't quite understand.

Why did Natsukawa wait until now, and why did he do so quietly, avoiding everyone, when he clearly had the ability to eliminate the demon Onijuro directly?

"Could it be because of Mr. Senuma and the others?"

Thinking that Xia Chuan had been looking out the window earlier, I suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu.

"Actually, Ryo-senpai doesn't need to worry too much. Everyone is just scared because you and the Destruction Bringer both come from space... But I personally think that Ryo-senpai is different from the Destruction Bringer. Maybe he can become the third Ultraman on Earth."

"The 3th one..."

Xia Chuan tore open a straw.

It wasn't just the special search team monitoring him; the will of Earth itself was also watching.

Entering this instance always gives me the feeling that I am the villain.

His identity might be a sensitive issue; he doesn't simply come from the universe of the Destruction Invitation, but from a higher-dimensional dark universe outside.

Anyone who didn't know better would think he destroyed the world and is now reaping the rewards from the dungeons.

In terms of strength, they are indeed capable of destroying the Earth.

But he had little interest in the world itself.

Collecting monster cards is indeed a bit strange, but it indirectly helps reduce the possibility of Earth being corrupted by darkness.

He should be considered a savior rather than a world destroyer.

"I believe in you, senior," Imu said, completely putting aside her nervousness, as she carefully stood up and reached out to Natsukawa. "I believe that you, as a radiant senior, will not harm the Earth or humanity."

"Trust me, that's fine, but don't trust the light too much."

Xia Chuan smiled at I Meng, but did not shake hands. He turned around and took out a new blank card from his pocket.

The kid was the one who reacted the most at the beginning.

"If you really trust me, then take this with you."

"What is this?" I asked, looking at the blank card with a puzzled expression. Apart from its toughness, it didn't seem to have anything special about it.

It is not made of earthly materials, but its structure is not visible to the naked eye.

The blank space in the middle should be missing a pattern.

"This is a symbol of friendship," Natsukawa said as he went into the kitchen to prepare lunch. "I also gave Fujimiya Hiroya a card of the same kind. If you can fully integrate this card, I will help you solve the final crisis on Earth."

"Have you met Fujimiya before, senior?"

I was stunned.

"The final Earth crisis... is it the true form of the Destruction Bringer? Where is Fujimiya now? And what about the Destruction Bringer...?"

"You're asking too many questions. Go back now."

Xia Chuan didn't intend to continue the conversation, and after handing over the blank card, he started frying eggs.

"Just remember this: even light can be an enemy."

Light is a manifestation of the power of the mind, and this subjective existence cannot be simply judged as good or bad.

Not every bad person feels that they are doing bad things.

Perhaps the source of the Destruction Bringer was originally the light of some planet, which only became a monster-like existence on Earth.

For example, the final boss, the angel Zog.

Zog initially appeared in the form of light, and even helped Gaia and Agul replenish their light energy.

"Do you still want to stay for dinner?" Xia Chuan glanced at Wamu, who was standing motionless outside.

It wasn't that he didn't want to say more, but it was easy for it to lead to destruction and attract unwanted attention.

He is not ready for the final battle.

"Um," I said, embarrassed as I put away the blank card, "I just wanted to say that overcooked eggs don't taste good."

XIG advocates for nutritious meals; he hasn't eaten his own food in a long time.

I was indeed thinking of getting a free meal before going back.

"I'm not very good at cooking."

Xia Chuansheng fried an egg in a simmering pan and sprinkled a spoonful of sugar onto the plate.

"Want to give it a try?"

"Huh?" I exclaimed again, "Fried eggs...you have to add sugar?"

He also enjoys sweets, but only desserts and fruits.

"Give it a try," Natsukawa continued preparing lunch. "How do you know it won't taste good if you don't try it?"

Now only sugar can allow him to reminisce about past human emotions.

He didn't lie to me about my dream; the sweet fried egg was delicious.

"It tastes awful!" I swallowed with difficulty, turning around to force myself not to spit it out.

It was hot, sweet, and had a burnt taste.

"Ahem, Senior Liang, I suddenly remembered that I still have a patrol mission, so I won't bother you any longer today."

"it is good."

Xia Chuan watched as my dream left, her legs stiff, and then suddenly looked up at the sky in confusion.

Something seems to have happened at the XIG air base; an area briefly lost his senses, and an unusual time distortion occurred.

It looks like something from the future has invaded this time.

He had experienced this feeling when he first used Hyper Gauntlet to reverse time.
