Ultraman: Forced to become the Dark Boss

As a philosopher once said.

Power itself is not scary; what is scary is its master.

What does the nature of power matter if it is needed?

Moreover…

These cards are amazing...

Hiahia, I'm going to become the King of Monsters someday!

Yuan Huixia's expression became quite interesting.

After realizing that it had successfully changed the host's mind, the dark sparks flickered even more mesmerizingly, and the card was leisurely put away.

Having finally found a dark individual with such a unique constitution, who might become the strongest Spark Host, how could I let him abandon me! (▽▽)

Yuan Huixia looked at the dark sparks, and his excited mood calmed down: "Can you become smaller, or hide?"

As can be seen from many Ultraman TV shows, losing the human host's transformation device is a very troublesome matter.

Especially since he's the main villain and doesn't have the protagonist's halo, he might get taken down by some new Ultra Warrior who's here for training if he's not careful.

If you lose your spark, you'll just be an ordinary person after all.

By then, even the weakest alien will be able to easily defeat you. Furthermore, the Dark Spark can be subdued by defeating (killing) monsters, and a portion of its pure dark power can be fed back to the host. Such an incredible treasure will surely be coveted and even stolen by many (aliens)...

Therefore, if one can completely bind oneself and remain hidden, it will definitely be easier to operate behind the scenes. (Shooting from the shadows)

A dark spark flickered briefly before disappearing from the table.

The next second, Yuan Huixia felt a slight binding sensation on her wrist.

The dark sparks transformed into a bracelet, a bracelet strung together with black beads. Although it was pitch black, it was quite shiny and, to be honest, rather pretty.

Could it be that I've unconsciously adopted the aesthetic preferences of villainous characters?

Yuan Huixia silently shook his head.

No.

It really is beautiful.

"Life is so beautiful."

Yuan Huixia looked out the window at the gradually bustling streets and the increasingly lively atmosphere.

I couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

"duang..."

Just then, Yuan Huixia suddenly heard an unpleasant sound coming from the glass.

He was a little bewildered.

A dark spark flickered, and the jet-black bead emanated a mixture of alertness and excitement.

"You mean, there are monsters?"

Yuan Huixia was somewhat bewildered.

Such a coincidence?

He just decided to use the monster's power, and now he's getting a pillow?

...

Earth Defense Force Headquarters (UPC)

In this world, all nations have united to form a special organization that transcends the nature of the United Nations.

Elite personnel from major powers join the UPC to undertake tasks such as fighting external enemies and resolving internal disputes.

UPC has branches on every continent, with its headquarters in North America. However, its facilities in Asia are relatively more complete. (This is because the Dark Dragon and the Giant of Light descended here twenty years ago.)

It possesses advanced technologies (primarily in the military field).

It possesses advanced fighter jets and a large number of ground troops, including tanks and heavy weapons (including nuclear weapons).

It possesses highly trained and skilled soldiers and military researchers, including the UPIC elite squad, responsible for handling extreme events, primarily dealing with the potential reappearance of giant creatures such as dragons.

In addition, UPC also has a military base, the Octagon, in outer space, which gives it certain space defense, combat, and resupply capabilities.

At this time, at UPC headquarters.

UPIC Operations Command.

Everyone stared intently at the large screen, their faces serious, as a series of alarms sounded.

“An emergency document has been sent from Octagonal Star Base. Three unidentified objects are rapidly approaching Earth and are expected to reach the outer space warning line in 15 minutes.”

Chapter 3 Iron-Cutting Monster

"We must eliminate them and nip the danger in the bud."

The island commander was a burly man who was a full 1.5 meters tall.

His hair was somewhat sparse, especially near his forehead, with only a few stubborn strands proving that he wasn't bald.

Despite his unassuming appearance, he is nominally the highest-ranking person in charge of the entire Riben UPC.

At this moment, he looked indignant, as if he would not give up until he achieved his goal.

"... "

Yuji Ihara lowered his eyes slightly, making it impossible to read his expression, but the upturn of the corners of his mouth revealed the pleasant mood of the UPIC captain at that moment.

"But just now the North American headquarters issued a request for the Octagonal Star Base to try to communicate with the other party. If that fails, then issue a warning. Only as a last resort should force be used."

The liaison officer, Nakata Shunrei, was timid and seemed somewhat embarrassed.

This quiet, bespectacled girl has already gotten used to the conflicting orders between the island commander and the North American headquarters.

"Oh...actually, that's what I was thinking too."

Scratched his head.

The island commander said in a very serious tone.

But I felt somewhat lost.

Can someone like me really be the commander of the UPC Rimoto branch?!

The secret book that had been silent all along immediately noticed the conflict on Commander Kojima's face.

He gently placed his hand on the island commander's shoulder.

He gave her a very encouraging look.

This earned him a touching look from the island's commander.

"Cough cough."

"In that case, Commander Kojima, is the order being issued as is?"

Captain Ihara inquired.

He then gestured to team member Shunling.

Upon receiving the hint, Shunling immediately replied to the Octagonal Star Base.

"Ah, that's how it should be."

"If there is no response to an inquiry, the Octagonal Star Base will issue a stern warning!"

The island commander first let out a long sigh of relief.

He then said fiercely.

"Yes, yes!"

The mysterious book was holding a folder, looking quite agreeable.

The other team members remained obediently silent.

Sitting next to Shunling, seemingly focused on the computer, is a UPIC technical support staff member, a member of the Boden team who is skilled in various equipment modifications and repairs, including developing cutting-edge technologies.

Despite his chubby and harmless appearance, he is actually a very reliable guy when it comes to work.

Besides these three (Boden, Shunling, and Captain Ihara), UPIC has four other outstanding pilots (or pilots), the only female pilot of whom is a survivor of the Dragon Rebellion twenty years ago, named Li Mana.

The reason for highlighting her is that she is the only pilot who was selected through civilian means to join the UPIC Riben branch.

...

At this time, the Octagonal Star Space Military Base had already issued warnings to the three unidentified flying objects.

However, the other party did not respond at all.

Therefore, the base immediately contacted the ground command.

"However, according to common sense, our Riben branch should not have the authority to command the Octagonal Star Military Base, right?"

The island commander was somewhat slow to realize this.

He quietly asked the mysterious book beside him.

"Hey, but according to information from the North American headquarters, once the unidentified flying object breaks through the outer defenses, there is a 90% chance that it will land in Japan."

The Imperial Secret Book smiled slightly.

He responded very easily.

"Oh, so that's it... What?!"

The island commander initially understood, but was then utterly shocked.

He even cried out in a somewhat panicked manner.

And so, everyone witnessed the dignified highest-ranking official of the UPC Riben branch comically jumping up and down in the command center.

The commander's height, in particular, is a major drawback.

"It's alright, the Octagonal Star Base's military strike capabilities far exceed our expectations..."

The Podence player, no longer smiling as before, spoke with a serious and rather proud expression.
