I'm really just human

ROOK's attack failed. He lowered his body slightly, then roared, broke through the rain and attacked.

It was the same battle with Ixa, and he didn't believe that he couldn't beat him this time.

"boom--!"

There was a loud bang of lightning and explosion in the heavy rain on the road.

Continuous raindrops exploded.

Aso Yuri also had to avoid the sight in the dazzling light. When she turned around again, only Natsukawa Ixa was left in the rain, and the Lion Fang Vampire ROOK was nowhere to be found.

"Killed, killed?" Aso Yuri glared back at Natsukawa.

This is ixa...

"not yet."

Xia Chuan looked quietly into the depths of the heavy rain, canceled his transformation, and the Ixa armor automatically retracted into a half cross, disappearing along with the belt.

"But he shouldn't be able to run far. Even ROOK wouldn't feel well from the trauma he just suffered."

"Feel sorry."

Aso Yuri seemed to want to say something but stopped herself. She bit her lips with a complicated expression, and it was unclear whether the water on her face was rain or tears.

"I just……"

"Understandable."

Natsukawa shook his head and went to a roadside izakaya with Aso Yuri to take shelter from the rain.

The commotion just now caused all the customers to run away, the store was empty, and even the boss didn't know where he had gone.

Looking at Aso Yuri who was curled up with her arms tightly hugged, Natsukawa casually handed over the coat hanging on the counter.

"It's normal to be afraid. Don't force yourself. Only by admitting your weakness can you become strong."

"Tingyin said," Aso Yuri didn't put on her coat, wiped her eyes and asked Xiachuan, "Did you know from the beginning that I couldn't transform? You wanted me to see clearly..."

"I just don't want you to keep pestering me."

Xia Chuan still couldn't find the boss, so he could only take out a few coins to pay the bill himself.

"Mr. Kaminaga."

"Go back, don't catch a cold..."

Xiachuan put away his wallet and prepared to find an umbrella to leave, but when he turned around, Aso Yuri suddenly jumped into his arms.

"Can you... let me hold you for a while?"

Aso Yuri's voice choked with sobs and her trembling body leaned against Natsukawa.

For a moment, Natsukawa didn't know whether to walk or stop, his face was tense, and the image of Hiroko Asami gritting her teeth and glaring in anger flashed through his mind for no reason.

hiss!

"Sorry, I seem to have been a little willful because of Ixa's matter."

Aso Yuri couldn't control her emotions and burst into tears, hugging Natsukawa tightly with her arms.

"The president is right. Mr. Kanyong is indeed the best candidate for the ixa wearer..."

"Wow!"

Natsukawa opened his mouth and suddenly a faint light appeared on his body. An even stronger feeling of fatigue surged into his heart again, and Asami Hiroko's continuous shouts rang repeatedly in his ears.

"Kaminaga!"

illusion?

Xia Chuan regained consciousness from his exhaustion and raised his hand only to find that he was becoming increasingly ethereal, as if he was about to disappear from this world.

"Mr. Kanonaga?"

Aso Yuri also noticed the situation, and hurriedly loosened her hands, watching with a trembling voice as Natsukawa's body turned transparent.

“How, how could this happen?! Mr. Kaminaga——!”

"boom!"

Ixa's fist gun fell to the ground and rolled to Aso Yuri's feet.

……

"Kamiyaga?"

In this world, outside the door, Hiroko Asami's voice started shouting again.

Xia Chuan suddenly woke up and sat up. He looked around the bedroom furnishings and then looked down at the shuttle at his waist.

He actually came back halfway.

However, the connection with the "Kiva" copy did not disappear, but the shuttle reported a cooling-off period of several days.

It seems that this shuttle was not a failure.

"Kamiyaga?"

Hiroko Asami knocked on the door in confusion, and when she was about to make another call, the door opened with a click.

"What did you do?"

Seeing Natsukawa sweating profusely, Hiroko Asami glanced at the room with a strange expression.

“So much sweat…”

"I used the shuttle once."

Xia Chuan said while wiping his sweat.

"But how do you have the key to the villa?"

Chapter 60 Save the World

2023-04-30

"Well, ahem..."

Hiroko Asami's eyes were wandering, and she looked around with her hands behind her back and talked about other things.

"The door was not locked when I arrived..."

"Not locked?" Natsukawa looked at the first floor and then at Hiroko Asami.

How could he not lock the door before traveling through it?

No one else lives here.

"Wait," Xia Chuan inadvertently glanced at the suitcase in the living room on the first floor, "Are you going to move in here?"

Hiroko Asami couldn't avoid Natsukawa's gaze and tried to force an innocent smile.

"We can't help it. The Metropolitan Police Department is too crowded, so we decided to temporarily transfer the support team to this base. Although this is in the suburbs, it is not far from the various districts in the city. It is more convenient than the Metropolitan Police Department."

"Even so, there's no need to live in this one, right? There are so many vacant villas."

Natsukawa glanced at Hiroko Asami quietly, then went downstairs and took out a can of cold drink from the refrigerator.

To be honest, there is always a sense of unreality in the copy space and time. Although I have an identity that is not a black household, I can clearly feel the rejection of the world.

I felt a lot more at ease after returning to this world.

Although the world is in chaos now, the end of the world may come at any time.

"By the way, Kanonaga."

Hiroko Asami followed him down the stairs.

"Did you fail again this time?"

"That's it."

Xia Chuan opened his phone to check the news.

Apart from a few missed calls from Hiroko Asami, there were only a few advertising emails.

Interpersonal relationships are so simple that they are almost non-existent.

Natsukawa glanced at Hiroko Asami who was packing her luggage.

Perhaps these former teammates are the only ones he can trust in this world.

After all, he was the one who was able to fight against the authorities for Ultraman.

However, he could only say sorry. The situation was unclear now, and he did not have the ability to be absolutely safe, so he could not expose himself easily.

Otherwise, not only will there be no benefit, but it will also put former teammates in danger.

After a pause, Xia Chuan lowered his head and started reading the news.

It had not been long since he started traveling, only about an hour, and the situation outside had not changed much.

The news about the Amazon apartment incident seems to have been blocked, and the news on the Internet has been almost cleared out. Only the Knight Forum has relevant information.

"You still have an account on the Knight Forum?" Hiroko Asami asked in surprise.

"It's Murai's. I'm borrowing it for use."

"Borrow? If you need it, I can help you apply. This forum is also managed by the Alliance."

"No, it's too much trouble."

Natsukawa put down his phone, turned around and saw Hiroko Asami leaning close to him, and subconsciously sniffed her nose.

"Uh, sorry," Asami Hiroko blushed, her neck stiffened as she shifted her gaze, coughed lightly and explained, "I've been too busy lately and I don't have time to take a shower."

"again?"

"Ahem, I'll go take a shower right away..."

"Wait a moment, Hiroko."

Natsukawa called out to Hiroko Asami who looked hurried.

"I almost forgot to ask you something. Are there any other restrictions on the shuttle, such as usage time?"

"Of course there is," Asami Hiroko said without hesitation, "Why do you think the number of uses is limited? Even if there is no cooldown period, the human body cannot withstand continuous use... You are not going to travel back and forth repeatedly, are you?"

“It was only used once or twice.”

Natsukawa hesitated for a moment, then continued to ask as he looked at Hiroko Asami who was waiting quietly.

"Also... is it possible that after traveling through time, we did not enter the Knight Space, but entered a real world?"

"Eh?"

Asami Hiroko widened her eyes.

"I've never heard of it... Could it be that you traveled to another world?"

"That's about it." Xia Chuan nodded slightly.

Proper exchange of information would do him no harm, and it could also explain why he did not obtain the Knight System.

"Really?" After confirming that Natsukawa was not joking, Asami Hiroko looked even weirder, "Kaminaga, you really are...special.

But it's not impossible, after all, Ultraman once merged with you, um, that's probably the reason."

"The problem is that I have no idea how to get through customs, and my stay time is very limited."

Xia Chuan crossed his arms in thought.

This time, the "Kiva" copy only lasted less than 2 days.

Basically there's nothing you can do.

It's not possible that he would be asked to eliminate all the vampires in such a short time, right?

"Clear the level?" Asami Hiroko also began to ponder, "Will it be to save the world? Well, it seems unlikely. I only know that other people have passed the knight's battle test, and the slightly special ones have only survived for a period of time in the hands of monsters."

Xia Chuan's eyebrows twitched slightly.

Save the world?
