【Kanto Medical University Hospital, Tokyo. 】

10:57 PM

[“Hey~ whoosh!”]

[Makishima Saori wrote the last stroke on the house plate with a fountain pen, and nodded with satisfaction at the house plate in front of her, which read Kousaka Kyousuke on the top and Zaimokuza Yoshiki on the bottom.]

[“As expected, this is the way to coordinate. Takasaka-kun really cares about Zaimokuza-san. He almost died of high blood pressure due to overwork, but he was still muttering his name before he fainted.”]

[“Okay, let’s go take a rest. Ugh~ I’m so tired!”]

[Makishima Saori stretched out, moaned seductively, and then patted her back and left, leaving two people lying in the intensive care unit.]

[“Hmm… Ugh… Gu…”]

[In the intensive care unit, Kousaka Kyosuke lay on his own bed with a livid face, receiving an IV drip, his eyes full of bloodshot and dark circles staring at the extinguished ceiling light.]

["——————Snoring, snoring, snoring, snoring, snoring, snoring~"]

[The sound that challenges the limits of human eardrums echoes throughout the room, and it is still so continuous. ]

【Kousaka Kyousuke turned his head with bloodshot eyes for the third time. Zaimokuza, who was lying on the other bed like last time, kicked the quilt under the bed again, with his hands and legs spread out in a "big" shape, saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth, and the bubbles on his nose expanded and shrank with every deafening snoring sound - the cycle repeated endlessly.】

[“Ahem…”]

[This damn laugh that makes your blood run cold is exactly the same. 】

【And this time, Kousaka Kyosuke has made his choice without any hesitation. 】

[He forced his almost immobile body to turn to the side, and stretched out his hand to his windbreaker hanging on the hanger at the door of the ward, wanting to get the pistol inside the lining of the windbreaker. This time, he must make sure that this scourge will never hurt anyone again! ]

[Only——if we can get there!!!]

[The outstretched hand bends and stretches, over and over again, and Kousaka Kyosuke's gaze at the windbreaker is full of desire, like a traveler lost in the desert seeing an oasis, or a victim who fell into the river clinging to a weed. ]

["——————Snoring, snoring, snoring, snoring, snoring, snoring~"]

[——And this snoring sound became the last straw that broke the camel's back. ]

【"Woo..."】

[This snoring sound was like a sharp blade piercing through his already fragile spirit. Unable to hold on any longer, Kousaka Kyosuke fainted. The hand with the IV drip fell powerlessly on the quilt as white as a funeral bouquet, just like a soldier falling in the last battle before returning home.]

[The third night spent in this intensive care unit is still very long, just like Zaimokuza's snoring and Kousaka Kyousuke's nightmare, the moment of the end will never come. ]

……

【Tokyo City, Metropolitan Police Department, Scientific Research Institute. 】

【Click.】

[With fingers as white as green onions, she tapped the Enter key lightly. The data on the screen in front of her began to calculate rapidly. The Metropolitan Police Department's top-of-the-line computer quickly came up with the result.]

[“This is an astonishing statistic… It’s a little hard to handle. Can he really handle it?”]

[Hina Ebina pushed up her glasses, the lenses reflecting the calculation results and design drawings on the computer screen in front of her, and she reached out to take the coffee beside her and started drinking.]

[On the computer screen in front of her were numerous designs of similar armors. The designs and shapes of these armors fit the human body very well and were obviously for human use.]

[A red English name hangs high above the top of these design drawings, attracting special attention.]

【——Plan: Gulkiller. 】

57. Unable to open the almighty awakening (two in one)

Chiba Prefecture, Chiba Benzun High School, Health Room.

"Too bad..."

Looking at the video of "himself" lying helplessly on the hospital bed, being tortured by Zaimokuza's snoring, Kyosuke Kousaka, who was also lying on the hospital bed, covered his face with a "snap", almost unable to bear to look at the miserable scene.

He found that the "self" in the video had been moving in a more and more strange direction since he met this guy named Zaimokuza, like a donkey that had broken free from its reins, running wildly from the wide-view Yang Kang Avenue to the weed-covered narrow path, with no sign of looking back.

Where was his cool and handsome appearance with sunglasses on when he first appeared? Where was his bravery and fearlessness when facing unconfirmed life forms? Where was his wisdom and rationality that allowed him to think calmly even when his life was on the verge of extinction?

Why did all these good qualities turn in the opposite direction after meeting the white-haired rabbit, and never look back from a cold-faced, warm-hearted tough guy to a comedian? He is not a special effects villain who is set to become a comedian after being whitewashed!

If his original future image was of a samurai with a firm look in his eyes, wearing armor and holding a sharp blade, riding a horse and preparing to go to war, then since he met Zaimokuza Yoshiteru, the horse he was riding was inexplicably replaced by a donkey in estrus. The samurai rode the donkey and wanted to charge the enemy, but the donkey was attracted by a female donkey passing by. It ignored the samurai's orders and ran towards the female donkey, leaving a wildly swinging donkey tail and dust in the eyes of the stunned enemy, as well as the samurai's angry cursing in their ears.

And judging from the situation, he might actually die at Zaimokuza's hands before the unconfirmed life form.

For example, this time, the future Kyosuke Kousaka would never have thought that he was not seriously injured and sent to the hospital by the unconfirmed life form, but instead was defeated by his own people, and it was actually at the hands of a stack of manuscript paper. If he told others about it, he would probably be laughed to death.

For example, now, Kyosuke Kousaka can clearly hear the laughter of many classmates who are also in the infirmary outside the curtain. In order to avoid being discovered by them that the person he is laughing at is sitting on the bed next to him, Kyosuke Kousaka, with a frown on his face, wordlessly pulls up the quilt to cover himself completely.

After seeing the miserable state of "himself" in the future after reading Zaimokuza's novel, Kyosuke Kousaka rejected his previous idea of ​​"going to Sobu High School to meet the current Zaimokuza after the video is over" without hesitation, and decided to continue observing and see whether he should really go to meet him based on the next developments.

The content of the video continued to develop during this period and soon entered a new stage.

[Saitama Prefecture, Kawaguchi City. 】

【02:16 AM】

["Hope no のはな system い だ tie が ~ the current servant ら の chest の中 に あ る か ら ~ decisive し て San る こ と は な い ~生きる力! Hope の は な system い だ——" 】

[A truck was driving alone on an empty road. The driver was wearing headphones and listening to popular songs while humming softly. He was steering with his left hand and his right hand was resting on the edge of the open window of the car door, tapping the rhythm of the melody.]

[If it was during the day when the traffic was congested during peak hours, the driver would not have dared to do this even if he had ten times the courage. After witnessing the horrific murder scene of Unidentified Lifeform No. 21 and the horrific death of the victim by chance last week and being frightened to the ground, if it weren't for his beloved dog dragging him away, he would have died there long ago.]

[After that near-death experience, the driver now cherishes his life and safety very much. He has not only changed his bad habit of drunk driving, but also goes to bed early unless he encounters a large order like the current one. His body and spirit are getting better day by day.]

[Today he received a huge order and was busy delivering the goods from morning till night. He finally finished his work an hour ago. After drinking a few cups of coffee to prevent himself from getting sleepy, he drove back to Tokyo feeling a little tired.]

[Driving alone on an empty road late at night is really boring. Looking at the long road where he is the only one driving, the driver decided to take out his headphones and listen to music to kill time. Anyway, he is the only one on the road now, so he doesn't have to worry about causing trouble to others. ]

[——As he was thinking this, an accident happened. ]

【"Hope no のはな性いだtrapが~I'm so busy today!!!"]

[The driver, who was singing with great enthusiasm, looked back inadvertently and saw a tall figure standing motionless in the direction of the truck's high beam. He was so scared that the song he was singing was completely lost at that moment, and his left foot immediately stepped on the brake out of instinct.]

【呲——! 】

Tong [The sudden braking caused the entire fast-moving truck to shift sideways due to potential energy and the braking of the brake valve. The tires scraped against the ground with a sharp, piercing sound. Finally, the huge truck finally stopped only one meter away from the tall figure.]

[“——Are you crazy!? What are you doing here so late at night instead of going to sleep?!”]

[The driver covered his chest with his right hand and gasped in shock. When he came to his senses, he immediately thrust his head out of the car door and roared at the burly man standing in front of the car, his saliva almost spraying on the man's face.]

【“…”】

[The tall and strong man dressed in a very avant-garde and non-mainstream style did not respond to the driver's words. He just looked up at him indifferently and did not even want to explain a word.]

[“What’s your attitude? Do you have even a little bit of basic manners and upbringing?!”]

[The driver, angered by the sturdy man's reaction, angrily slapped the steering wheel of the truck. Facing this bastard who almost turned him into a murderer, the driver decided to teach him a lesson.]

[Beep——————]

[He pressed the button in the middle of the steering wheel with one hand, and the truck's loud horn, like heavy metal music, echoed on this long road with only two people.]

[This sound rushed directly into the ears of the sturdy man standing in front of the truck. The sturdy man's expression changed instantly. His face and features twitched as he looked at the truck that kept honking. The edges of his cold eyes gradually became bloodshot.]

[“Now you know how powerful I am! Hurry up and get out of my way! Stop blocking the rotation of the earth! I have to go to work tomorrow!”]

【Seeing the distorted face of the burly man, the driver, feeling happy, stuck his head out of the car window again and sneered at him from a high position.】

【But what happened next was completely beyond the driver's expectations. 】

[He expected that this man would walk away with a sullen face, would rush up to him in anger, or even get angry and want to fight him in real life, and that he had already secretly grasped an iron rod that was stuffed in the car, ready to fight back at any time in a legitimate defense of "if he hits me first, I will hit him back" - but he did not expect the following development. ]

【The man turned into a monster in front of him. 】

[“Drink!!!!!!!”]

[A tall man with a face covered in oil paint roared with bloodshot eyes. A copper belt appeared in the middle of his waist. His face was twisted and distorted in anger and completely lost its human form. A golden horn stretched out from the center of his forehead. The tip of the horn flashed a cold and ferocious light under the street lamp.]

[The iron rod held in the driver's palm fell from the loose palm onto the carpet of the truck driver's seat with a dull sound.]

[He stared blankly at the monster that had transformed from a sturdy man. The déjà vu appearance brought back his nightmare-like memories from a week ago. His bloodless lips immediately trembled and stammered.]

[“Unconfirmed——Unconfirmed life form! Damn! Quick——Uwaaa!?”]

[The driver was almost scared out of his wits, and immediately wanted to step on the accelerator and run over to escape, but a muscular arm stretched out from the open window just as the truck engine vibrated, grabbed the driver's collar, and pulled him out of the window while he screamed, and pressed him against the closed side of the truck.]

"I'm so touched and honored! You will be the first step for me, Zu-Zain-Da, to become even stronger!"

[His orange eyes looked at the man in front of him, his face full of fear, his legs swinging wildly off the ground, and Zain's mouth moved up and down. His head slowly lowered, and the sharp horns on his forehead were aimed at the man's chest. The tips of the horns swayed with different lights as the angle of light and shadow changed.]

[Is it possible, is he going to insert this thing into my body!? ]

[Seeing the terrifyingly long horns in front of him, the driver immediately understood what the monster was trying to do. Incomparable fear and despair immediately engulfed his heart, and he shouted loudly in fear.]

[“Stop! Stop it, ahhhhhhhh!!!”]

[Before he could finish his words, Zain suddenly thrust forward into the head, turning the driver’s plea for mercy into a heart-wrenching wail.]

[The thick and long horn pierced through the driver's chest and pierced the car door behind him. His swinging legs suddenly stiffened and straightened, and red blood dripped onto the ground. This miserable scene resembled that of Bald Lin being tortured by Frieza.]

【“The first one.”】

Blood flowed down from the horns, along Zain's face and toward his mouth. Feeling the long-lost taste of blood on his mouth, he spoke in a deep voice.

【At the same time, Tokyo City, Metropolitan Police Department, Scientific Research Institute. 】

[“The debugging has been equipped, and Yihui can transform.”]

【"clear."】

Seeing Himena Ebina giving him an OK sign, Kousaka Kyousuke nodded and looked up at Zaimokuza, who was standing in the center of the laboratory behind the glass.

[“Zaimokuza, are you ready?”]

"OK. Anytime!"

【Faced with Zaimokuza smiling and showing his teeth and giving a thumbs up, Kousaka Kyoukai nodded with a serious look in his eyes.】

[The reason why they stayed here so late today was to conduct an experiment on the awakening of the almighty element. ]

[A week has passed since the defeat of the powerful unidentified life form No. 21. During this time, Zaimokuza and Kousaka Kyosuke were also discharged from the hospital. ]

[During this period of time when a new unconfirmed life form has not yet appeared, Zaimokuza hopes that Kousaka Kyousuke and Ebina Hina can help him awaken the red form of the element. ]

[So far, Zaimokuza has been able to use four forms, namely the All-Powerful Form, the Blue Dragon Form, the Pegasus Form, and the Titan Form. The last three forms acquired later can already use the Elemental Awakening Mode to fight.]

[In contrast, the All-Powerful Form, which he obtained first and used most skillfully, has been unable to use the Elemental Awakening Mode. According to what Zaimokuza said, the other three forms can have a strange premonition at the beginning of the transformation when using the Elemental Awakening, but the Red Form also has this premonition, but has been unable to use it. The previous private attempts all ended in failure, which has always puzzled him. ]

[And we don’t know when the next enemy will appear. It is estimated that the strength of the unconfirmed life forms that appear later will become stronger and stronger. Sooner or later, there will be a strong enemy that even the first three forms of elemental awakening modes cannot deal with. Just like the 21st this time, the elemental awakening of the Azure Dragon form could barely resist its attack. Fortunately, the Titan form later awakened a new elemental power to defeat the opponent, but there is no guarantee that the next enemy that appears will not be so strong that even the elemental awakening of the Titan form cannot deal with it. ]

[It is precisely driven by this thought and anxiety that Zaimokuza is eager to improve his strength, and the fastest way to improve his strength at this stage is obviously to awaken the elemental power of the omnipotent form and increase the means and methods to fight the enemy. ]

[But Zaimokuza had no idea about the previous failures, so he decided to take advantage of the gap when this enemy appeared to gather the strength of others to help him find the problem. After all, there is always strength in numbers. ]

【So this experiment took place. 】

【"call--"】

【Zaimokuza put down his right hand which was showing a thumbs up, and after the smile on his face faded, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then suddenly opened his eyes and suddenly covered his waist with both hands.】

"Henshin!"

【Om—】

[A red spirit stone appeared at his waist with a buzzing sound. With Zaimokuza's routine movements, the red reinforced muscles and black skin covered the helmet he was wearing. A pair of red compound eyes that reflected the figures of the two people outside the glass replaced the clear black eyes. A pair of golden horns like a stag beetle extended from the helmet.]

[“No matter how many times I watch it, it’s incredible. This amazing technology was left over from an ancient time that no one knows how long ago? As a scientist, it’s really a shock.”]

[Looking at the red warrior in the laboratory who no longer had any trace of Zaimokuza on his body, especially the spiritual stone belt on his abdomen, Ebina Hina couldn't help but push her glasses and said in an amazed tone. ]

[“Ms. Ebina, please concentrate. The next part is the important part.”]

[Kousaka Kyosuke, who had already seen Zaimokuza's transformation countless times, had lost the initial sense of surprise, and his expression did not fluctuate at all. He knew that what was coming next was the main purpose of this experiment.]

【"--drink!"】

[After Zaimokuza transformed into the red all-powerful form of Kuuga, his muscular chest bulged, and white air was sucked into his mouth from the edge of his mouthparts, and then into his lungs. The infusion of a large amount of oxygen gave his body the illusion of being gradually filled with power. Zaimokuza shouted and slapped his hands on both sides of the spirit stone on his belt again.]

[Buzz—buzz—buzz—buzz—]

[After he slapped his hands on his belt, the red spirit stone on his waist suddenly began to flicker, but very unsteadily, flickering like a traffic light at an intersection that was about to enter a countdown. The red light flickered in the laboratory, and also illuminated the faces of Zaimokuza after his transformation and the two people outside the laboratory who were observing the situation through the glass.]

[As the spirit stone flickered, Zaimokuza's body surface began to undergo strange changes, and the red muscles of the almighty form also emitted a faint light that was sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and the frequency was completely synchronized with the spirit stone on his waist. ]

【"here we go!"】
