"Why not let them go, and let yourself go too?"
After listening, Qianzi lowered her eyelids slightly, picked up the cola in front of her, and silently drank it.
"I still feel that letting them go would be a betrayal of the past self who cried under the covers."
The voice was soft, and it didn't sound like a rebuttal to Asakura Riku; it sounded more like a soliloquy.
Seeing that Asakura Riku still wanted to say something, she took a deep breath and said:
"You bear the burden of a tragic childhood, and the blood of demons flows in your veins, yet you must use this power to defend justice."
"That's your skill, but not everyone is as brave as you."
"I'm not as good as you, I can't do it."
Asakura Riku's final offensive also failed.
Reality isn't like Naruto, where a long, passionate lecture can make someone see the truth.
Saito Senko listened to everything Asakura Riku said, but she also frankly admitted her inner fragility and inability to let go.
After a while, Asakura Riku asked, "What do you plan to do after this is over?"
Saito Kenko fiddled with the straw: "Is it over...? After the knot in my heart is untied, of course it's time to start a new life."
Asakura Riku: "Specifically?"
Saito Kenko: "I'm going to go out and see the world."
Asakura Riku: "Are you going to America, or to England in Europe?"
Saito Kenko: "No, I want to go to the neighboring country of China."
Asakura Riku was taken aback. Huaguo, is Mr. Yu Hui's hometown?
In that place, Confucian values of loyalty and filial piety also seem to be very prevalent.
Saito Kenko's eyes were filled with longing for the future:
"When I visited my aunt's house for the New Year two years ago, I learned from Sendai Medical College that they had an alumnus named 'Lu Xun'."
"He was a literary giant. There was an article he wrote called 'How We Should Be Fathers Now,' which I read many times."
"Later, I read his other articles, and the more I read, the more I realized how remarkable he was."
"So I want to go to China to see his former residence and learn more about him."
"Next, let's go to Sichuan to see the pandas. Everyone there rides a panda to school..."
Hearing the joy in Saito Senko's tone, Asakura Riku suddenly laughed and said, "You're in a good mood right now?"
Saito Kenko: "Of course. Once I finish this big deal, I can finally get away from this place filled with my painful memories."
Asakura Riku stared into her eyes: "When you were looking to the future just now, did those painful memories attack you?"
Saito Kenko was taken aback, then laughed and scolded, "You, Asakura Riku-senpai, I was talking to you about the future, and you set me up, huh?"
Asakura Riku: "No, I just wanted you to look at the problem from a different perspective."
Saito Kenko curled up and lowered her voice:
"Actually, I don't necessarily have to kill them."
"I'm just afraid that when I look back in the future, I'll feel really bad thinking about how these two people are still alive."
"Killing them will also shatter that painful memory."
Seeing that there was a chance, Asakura Riku quickly said:
"What if you live a happy and fulfilling life in the future and don't have time to recall your painful past?"
"For example, you meet a boy you like, or you develop a hobby that you devote a lot of energy to."
"When you occasionally look back on the past, it's the kind of bittersweet memory that makes you cherish the present even more."
Saito Kenko tilted her head, somewhat agitated:
"Who can predict the future? I'm not one to give up halfway. If someone has to kill, they will kill!"
"Let's not talk about me, Asakura Riku-senpai, let's talk about you."
“When Dark Belial descends again, one of you is destined to fall. Have you thought about how you will ‘repay’ his kindness in giving you life?”
Asakura Riku was silent for three seconds, then said firmly, "I will fight him to protect everything I cherish."
When he first learned about his origins, he was unwilling to give up and hoped to persuade Old Man Bei to turn back from the wrong path as his son.
But the more he knew and the more he experienced, the less he held onto such unrealistic fantasies.
After today, he became even more aware of his own limitations.
He couldn't even persuade Saito Senko, who wasn't inherently bad, so how could he possibly face Dark Belial, whom Mr. Yu Hui described as even more evil than Saigegu...
"Good, that's ambitious. For my happy and fulfilling future, you must protect the Earth."
Saito Kenko patted Asakura Riku on the shoulder and took out a ball of black light from her chest.
"Here, take this. You need this strength more than I do."
The light merged into a blank capsule in Asakura Riku's belt, and after being filled, it formed a pattern on it.
That's... Ultraman Zero! Ultraman Zero's capsule has been activated!
The next moment, Father of Ultra's capsule began to flash, as if in resonance.
Asakura Riku looked at the newly acquired Zero capsules with surprise: "Qianzi, didn't you say before..."
Saito Kenko smiled and said, "You said you'd only give it to me after I killed my parents, right? It doesn't matter. It's the same whether I give it to you sooner or later. Anyway, once you understand my determination, you won't stop me."
Asakura Riku nodded: "Yes, you are a girl with your own opinions. The only thing that can stop you is yourself."
Saito Kenko stood up, her initial indifference replaced by a broad smile: "Well said. You've only known me for less than two days, yet you already understand my feelings better than my parents."
Then her voice became low and solemn: "Ultraman Geed, I hope this power can help you break free from the shackles of fate. You must win!"
After wishing him good luck in battle, Saito Senko prepared to leave.
Asakura Riku quickly called out to her, "Wait, here, take this as a return gift!"
After saying that, he took out his Flashman SHF and handed it to Saito Senko.
Riku Asakura: "This is Flashman! A super amazing hero who inspired me to keep going when I was sad and wanted to give up many times."
Saito Kenko took it in a daze, touched it, and looked at it:
"I thought you were going to give me an Ultraman Geed figure; they sell them at roadside stalls."
"So this is your pillar of support? Come to think of it, this is the first time someone has ever given me a toy..."
"I'll accept Flashman; I'll take it with me wherever I go from now on."
After putting it away, Saito Senko bowed slightly to him and then left the store.
"How was it, Xiao Lu? Did you succeed?" After Saito Senko left, the two people who had been guarding outside the shop came out.
Asakura Riku shook his head: "I don't know, let's see if she can let it go by then."
Meanwhile, Aizaki Moa nervously asked Saito Senko what the Flash Knight meant, wondering if it was a token of their love.
Riku Asakura was stunned: "Why would you think that, Moe-chan? It's just a gift exchange between friends. I hope she can feel love and justice from Flashman, just like I have."
Aizaki Moe breathed a sigh of relief, and then said that she wanted a present too.
Asakura Riku really didn't have anything else to give her, so he handed her his half-finished Coke.
Aizaki Moya tilted her head, took the drink, and drank it in one gulp.
"Boom!"
The next moment, a huge roar resounded, and a mushroom cloud rose into the distance!
"Ultraman Geed, it seems you are still stubbornly clinging to your delusions. Your foolish actions will bring down these ant-like humans!"
Fukuide K's sinister voice rang out, and Pedanim Zetton reappeared, wreaking havoc in the city.
"Isn't the deadline noon? It's only 10:50 now!" Pei Jia from Xingyun Manor exclaimed in surprise.
"Laiye, Mengya, I'm going!" Asakura Riku didn't say much and immediately transformed.
Looking at the original Geed that appeared in front of him, Fukuide Kei sneered, "Just a made tool, yet you dare to disobey your master again?"
Asakura Riku shouted, "I am not your appendage! I will do what I truly want to do and walk my own path!"
“You go!” He lightly tapped Father of Ultra’s capsule, releasing its power.
Seeing this, Fukuide Kei assumed he was about to try transforming into the [Truth Punishment] form again and laughed loudly: "How long are you going to struggle in vain? Will this time be any different from last time?"
“I go!” Asakura Riku said nothing, but gently tapped Ultraman Zero’s capsule to release its power.
Fukuide Kei's expression changed drastically: "What... this is!"
"Here we go!" Riku Asakura calibrated the Geed Riser and the two capsules: "Protect hope!"
Chapter 683 Geed's Story: Geed Faces Belial!
The powers of Father of Ultra and Zero merged with Riku Asakura's, creating a surge of powerful energy!
With a flash of light, Geed's appearance changed.
The horns of Father of Ultra extended from his head, and his upper body was clad in sturdy and powerful armor, exuding an imposing and unyielding aura.
Ultraman Geed – Sublime Form – makes a stunning debut!
"What a wild image." Toba Raiyo's eyes widened.
"Xiao Lu's new form is so cool, he'll definitely succeed this time!" Aizaki Moya cheered excitedly, holding the half-finished cup of cola.
“Ultraman Zero’s power, how could it be…” Fukuide Kei could no longer remain calm.
Jiede clenched his fists, feeling the power rising within him.
Is this the power of Father of Ultra and Zero? At this moment, he has the confidence to win!
"This is Qianzi's wish. She hopes I can win and thwart your conspiracy!"
Asakura Riku's voice was full of energy, showing no signs of weakness from yesterday, and he strode forward.
