Anime Crossover: My Part-Time Job as a Giant of Light While Studying Abroad in Chiba

"Tiga is clearly looking at me, isn't he?!"

"Look at me, aren't you?"

Then, the giant continued to fly until it disappeared completely into the horizon of the starry sky.

……

"Humans are truly incredible creatures."

Looking at the cheering crowd in the distance, Hibino Mirai's eyes were full of relief: "They will lose their way because of fear, and they will hurt each other because of rumors."

"But in their most desperate moments, as long as there is even the slightest glimmer of light, they can unleash a trust and friendship that shines brighter than the sun. This is probably why... the Warriors of Light can never abandon this planet."

“Yes.” Hong Kai sighed softly, his slender fingers caressing the ring in his arms. Even a wanderer like him, who had drifted through countless universes, couldn’t help but feel a ripple in his heart.

He thought of his SSP companions who had fooled around with him, and of Jugglus Juggler who always lurked in the shadows and mocked him.

"There's still a lot to do."

Hong Kai sighed, his eyes turning cold again: "The Kirieloids are just the beginning. The 'Great Terror' those guys mentioned... is probably the real trouble."

He had his hands in his pockets, about to say something, when he suddenly felt a card-like object in his pocket.

He was puzzled, so he pulled out the card, and then his eyes widened in surprise.

Before his eyes, the card with the image of Ultraman Tiga appeared silently in his hand, like a silent guardian.

He looked up again in the direction Tiga had flown away, then smiled silently.

"Let's go, Future, let's go find that kid."

He patted Future on the shoulder, and the two quietly slipped out of the crowd, disappearing into the shadows of the forest.

On a high slope not far away, Mr. Diye Jin stood with his hands on his hips, watching the receding light and smiling broadly.

"What a hymn to humanity!!!"

He exclaimed with lingering satisfaction, then greeted the students of Zongwu High School before striding away in his gleaming leather shoes.

……

On the sea.

"Ptooey... ptooey... cough cough cough..."

The Xincheng team members clung to a piece of floating wing debris, bobbing up and down in the icy seawater.

His head was bleeding, and his vision was somewhat blurred.

He barely managed to lift his head and glance at the dark seawater around him.

"Are you kidding me... Am I going to die in a place like this...?"

Just then, he suddenly saw a splash of water rapidly approaching on the sea not far away.

"Ah...is it a shark?" Shinjo closed his eyes bitterly. "I never thought that my lifelong reputation as Shinjo would end up being eaten by a shark instead of a monster."

"Hey! Uncle! Hang in there!"

A young, panting voice suddenly came from the sea.

"Wait...it's a person?" Shinjo opened his eyes in surprise.

A figure with messy brown hair swam towards him like an eel.

"Hey, Taiga! Well done! Keep it up! You're finally starting to look like an Ultraman!"

In his mind, Zero's voice shouted excitedly.

"Shut up, Zero! I just don't want to see any more plane crashes!" Taiga cursed inwardly as he spat out seawater.

Looking at the crashed fighter jet, he couldn't help but recall the shadows of his past as a pilot.

While cursing, Taihe Wang sped up and finally swam to the wing, grabbing Shinjo's arm.

"Uncle, hang in there, I'll get you there."

"Ah... thank you, young man." Xincheng felt a surge of warmth, having narrowly escaped death, and breathed a sigh of relief. "But how did you swim here? It's several kilometers from the shore!"

"I...cough cough...I used to be a coach at a swimming pool!" Taiga Nozomi told a colossal lie without changing his expression, gritting his teeth as he dragged Shinjo, who was a whole size bigger than him.

He struggled to paddle towards the shore, but after swimming less than fifty meters, his movements suddenly froze, and he began to sink.

"Hello? Taiga? What's wrong?" Zero suddenly became nervous.

"Zero... I think... I have a leg cramp... and I have absolutely no energy left..."

"Oh my god! Are you an idiot?! Why did you swim so far if you don't have the energy?! We're sinking!"

Zero collapsed and clutched his head in despair within his consciousness.

"I wasn't thinking much in that moment because I was trying to save people! You idiot alien, stop cursing me and lend me some power!"

Just as Taiga Nozomi and Zero were arguing in their heads, and Shinjo was completely bewildered and about to sink to the bottom together...

—Buzz! !!

A blinding searchlight descended from the sky, followed by the roar of a massive propeller.

"Great! We've found the Xincheng team member! He's alive!" The search and rescue personnel on the helicopter shouted excitedly into their walkie-talkies. "There's also a civilian nearby! Prepare for the rescue!"

The rescue helicopter slowly approached, a rope ladder was lowered, and several search and rescue team members reached out their strong hands.

"Wow—! My savior!!!"

Overwhelmed with emotion, Taiga Nozomi shed tears of gratitude, grabbed the rope ladder, and tightly gripped Shinjo behind him with his arm, afraid of falling.

Shin-joo looked at the young man who was clearly exhausted but still wouldn't let go, then suddenly grinned and let out a hearty laugh of relief.

The helicopter slowly ascended and flew towards the brightly lit city of Chiba.

The light took away not only the survivors, but also the demonic shadow that had hung over the city.

Where the gates of hell shattered, a new order and bonds are quietly sprouting from the ashes.

In a deserted place, an evil force is also growing wildly...

Chapter 47 Visiting the Sick

"So, this really is the reason you went completely missing on that night when the whole city was in a life-or-death crisis?!"

In a private room at Chiba Municipal Seaside Hospital, Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes were filled with disbelief, and even a hint of disappointment.

Duan Zilian leaned against the upright pillow, looking utterly hopeless, with a thick white neck brace around his neck, making him look like a sad penguin with its neck fixed in place.

He gestured with his eyes, as if to say, "Yes! Everything I said is true!"

"Are you an idiot? When I first received the message, I thought it was one of your pranks." Yukino sighed helplessly. Was the guy in front of her lucky or unlucky?

"You were controlled by that Kirieloid's mental fluctuations, walked down the stairs in a dazed state, tripped over your own feet, tumbled down the steps, twisted your neck, and passed out? How did you manage to exit like that?"

"Ah...yeah, don't say it, it's embarrassing." Duan Zilian laughed and cried at the same time. "Mind control is really hard to guard against. I didn't expect my sense of balance to be so bad. If Kai-san and Future-san hadn't found out, I probably would be enjoying myself in heaven."

This is a lie.

But this was the only reason he could think of to explain why he "disappeared on the day Chiba lost control and then appeared in the hospital covered in injuries."

"Pfft..."

Yui Yuigahama, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't hold back anymore. She quickly covered her mouth, but her shoulders were still shaking violently. "N-I'm sorry, Duan-kun... but when I think about the image of you rolling down the stairs like a log, I just... pfft, hahaha!"

"Yui, stop laughing, even though this guy is really embarrassing."

Yumiko Miura rolled her eyes, but the corners of her mouth were clearly turning up in a crazy smile.

"Seriously, Duan Zilian has completely abandoned her human identity and evolved into a god."

"They're already far removed from humanity," Hachiman Hikigaya and Sakuta Azusagawa scoffed mercilessly from the sidelines.

Hearing these sarcastic remarks, Duan Zilian could only shed tears of sorrow in her heart.

What can I do? I can't exactly say that I was showing off too much, and that the glowing beam exhausted all its strength, causing me to fall from the sky and break my neck!

At a window not far away, Kai and Mirai Hibino pretended to be looking at the distant Tokyo Bay view, their backs to the group of high school students, but their shoulders were actually trembling suspiciously.

"Pfft... He twisted his neck going down the stairs. This kid really knows how to make up a story." Hong Kai tried his best to suppress his laughter.

Two days ago, he and Wei Lai followed the trail of light and finally found Duan Zilian in a dark alley.

At that time, he lay sprawled out next to the trash can like a dead dog, covered in mud and with his neck twisted.

After some anxious questioning from Future and Kai, they finally learned that he had landed face-first due to overexertion, severely injuring his neck.

The two were so frightened that they transferred him to a nearby hospital overnight.

But here's the problem: Hong Kai and the future are definitely undocumented in this world, without health insurance or identification.

Left with no other choice, the future will have to use all the coffee shop's revenue from the past two months to pave the way for the hospital to agree to perform surgery to stabilize the condition first, and then contact the school to complete the formalities.

At that moment, Hibino Mirai touched her empty wallet in her pocket, tears welling up in her eyes: "Kaisan... the little money we earned in the past two months has been spent completely."

"How can this be repaired..."

Hong Kai gritted his teeth, but quickly put on a carefree attitude, looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and patted Wei Lai on the shoulder to comfort him:

"It's alright, the future is here! As the saying goes, 'Money lost can be earned back.' This is a great idea I learned from a collection of Chinese poems. Money can be earned back, and being alive is more important than anything else."

"Hahaha...you're right." Future was on the verge of tears.

A cheerful atmosphere instantly filled the ward, and the next second—

"Boom, boom, boom."

Suddenly, a rhythmic knocking sound came from outside the door.

"Please come in."

Future quickly rubbed his eyes, turned around and said.

The door to the ward was pushed open.

The person walking at the front was a blond boy.

He was wearing a crisp Shuchiin uniform, but his fierce eyes were radiating a strong sense of oppression, like a yakuza boss seeking revenge.

"Sorry to bother you."

Shirogane Miyuki bowed slightly and strode in.

"Eek!" Yui Yuigahama shrank back behind Yukinoshita in fright. "Yukinoshita, is that the student council president from Shuchiin High School?! Why does he seem so intimidating? Does he have some kind of grudge against Dan-kun?"

Yumiko, standing to the side, swallowed hard and instinctively assumed a defensive stance.

Hey everyone!

Just as the atmosphere became strangely tense, a vibrant voice came from behind Shirogane Miyuki.

Fujiwara Chika suddenly peeked out from beside Shirogane, her black ribbon swaying in her hair, a naive smile on her face.

"I heard that Duan Zilian was seriously injured, so the president generously brought us to see you!"

"Hey, that's the opinion of the entire student council." Shirogane Miyuki blushed instantly and whispered his rebuttal to Fujiwara Chika beside him.

With the appearance of Fujiwara Chika, the illusion of "gangster revenge" instantly vanished.

Immediately afterwards, Kaguya Shinomiya and Yuu Ishigami entered the ward.

"President Shirogane? And everyone from Shuchiin?" Duan Zilian struggled to move her eyes, a hint of surprise flashing in them.

"We heard you were hospitalized. As representatives of the preparatory committee for the merger of the two schools, we came to see you."

Bai Yinyu walked to the bedside and placed a large bag of nutritional supplements on the bedside table.

He tried to force a friendly smile, but under those fierce eyes, it was as if he were saying, "If you dare refuse, I'll kill you."

"Duan Jun, after our conversation at the coffee shop the other day, I was deeply moved. However, isn't using rolling down the stairs as a way to escape life a bit too hardcore?" Bai Yin said half-jokingly.

"...President, please stop mocking me with them." Duan Zilian sighed helplessly.

Yuya Ishigami peeked out from behind, a hint of respect in his gloomy eyes: "To be honest, Senior Duan, I sincerely admire you for falling into the hospital just to avoid going to school! If it's inconvenient for you in the future, I'll push you around in your wheelchair."

"Thank you for your respect! But I don't need a wheelchair!"

Duan Zilian's lips twitched violently. Was this kid here to visit him in his illness or to pronounce a lifelong paralysis on his head?

"Ishigami-kun!"
