Ultraman: Old Tom was actually a tsundere

Chapter 11: Chrisis is lying, you know?

What?

I stared at Xia Yu in shock, speechless for a long time.

If it weren't for Xia Yu's interference, Agul would have intervened during the battle against Apate, and I would have realized that there were two Ultra Warriors on Earth.

But it's not too late to know now.

A mix of complex emotions and doubts left him speechless.

Xia Yu interjected, "The good news is that you are not alone. You are not fighting alone. Agul is your comrade-in-arms."

The bad news is that your ally is now your enemy.

"Huh?" My brain was racing. "Why?"

Xia Yu pondered for a moment and decided to reveal the whole truth.

Having failed to achieve anything at Fujimiya's place, perhaps I can change everything through my dream.

"Because he was deceived by Chrysis."

"After the Root Destruction was prophesied, Krishna gave the only way to resolve the crisis."

Xia Yu looked at my dream meaningfully, "That is to eliminate humanity."

I gasped in shock.

I thought I could relax for a few days after beating the perfect Zade, but now I feel like I need to grow a new brain.

"Why would Chrysis deceive Fujimiya? Quantum computers don't have their own consciousness."

My dream was somewhat difficult to understand.

"It's normal for a quantum computer to have no consciousness."

"What if we add the Root Destruction Entity?"

A bolt of lightning flashed through my mind, leaving me frozen in place in my dream.

"You mean the Root Destruction Entity altered the results of the quantum computer?"

I shook my head. "No, that's impossible."

"The quantum computer is the brainchild of Fujimiya, and outsiders cannot possibly influence it."

"I'm sorry, this has really shocked me. I need time to find the evidence."

Even though Meng had complete trust in Xia Yu, she still didn't fully believe what he said at this moment.

Firstly, the reliability of quantum computers is deeply ingrained in Alchemy Star's mind; secondly, if what Xia Yu said is true, the Origin Destruction Entity is far too insidious and terrifying!

Watching Meng Xiayu leave in a panic, she sighed softly.

As expected.

It is difficult to change established perceptions through mere words; they will eventually discover the truth over time.

"I have a question." Torregia, who had witnessed his conversation with me in the dream, suddenly spoke up.

Why do you go to such lengths to help them, to help this world?

What benefits will you gain?

"You can't help without a benefit? I'm happy to do it!"

"No, that's not it," Toregia said after a moment's thought. "Or rather, motive is a more accurate description."

If this world is ultimately saved, humanity will cheer and thank Ultraman, not you.

"If I had to describe it, is it a sense of professional accomplishment?"

Xia Yu's words completely surprised Torregia.

What does "professional fulfillment" mean?

"Guess."

After those three words, Xia Yu fell silent, and Torregia was about to vomit blood.

Do you know that saying only half a sentence can kill someone?

If we're talking about curiosity in the entire universe, Torregia would easily be in the top three.

He initially treated Xia Yu as just an NPC tool, but as he spent more time with him, he felt that there were more and more mysteries surrounding Xia Yu.

Perhaps there is a special reason why he and Xia Yu are of one mind, rather than it being a coincidence.

But this guy is stubborn and won't listen to reason. After a few words, he suddenly stops talking.

You've answered my question, so I promise to help you once, and it won't affect your soul.

Xia Yu's eyes lit up. "Are you going to make that damned oath again?"

Torregia touched his forehead with one hand, pinched his nose, and hummed in agreement.

A solemn oath is useless; it's just disgusting.

Wait until I come out, hmph.

The door opened with a click, interrupting their conversation.

I dreamt of going away and then returning.

"I forgot about that."

He took out three monster light rings and placed them in front of Xia Yu.

"I'm sorry, that's all we can do for now. My friends have used a light particle accelerator to fix it."

Xia Yu stared at the light ring.

The broken parts were reconnected, but because the fragments were incomplete, the entire Monster Ring still looked like junk.

It's highly likely that only the surface layer was repaired.

"Thanks."

He put the light ring away; no matter what, keeping it was definitely the right thing to do.

Just then, Toregia's cold snort and mocking voice rang in my ears.

[Trying to treat a pile of trash like a treasure.]

"Isn't the material that makes garbage an even higher level of garbage?"

Xia Yu retorted as always, which made Torregia angry again.

Three days passed in a flash, and I never contacted Xia Yu again. I wonder if he was busy looking for evidence.

Xia Yu was happy to have some free time. While showing Tregear the various cuisines of China, he also tried to build a relationship with the monster Light Ring and awaken the monster's remaining consciousness.

He would be mercilessly mocked by Torregia every time.

In fact, Xia Yu didn't have high hopes either; he only put it on the table because he felt a little lonely eating alone.

The sight of the three broken monsters eating together helped him resist Tregear's seductive influence.

That noon, I dreamt of receiving a phone call.

He didn't mention anything about Chrisis, but instead invited Xia Yu to visit his hometown, Chiba Prefecture.

Xia Yu, having nothing else to do, naturally agreed.

After declining Xia Yu's invitation to race there, the two boarded the plane.

After several hours of travel, they arrived at a small peninsula town by the sea.

Half of the town is gently enveloped by the deep blue sea, and gray-tiled wooden houses are cascading down the hillsides.

The salty sea breeze, carrying waves, rushed towards us, making Meng and Xia Yu take a deep breath.

"It's a beautiful place, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, which makes me feel very relaxed."

"Your hometown is really nice."

Gazing at the familiar yet unfamiliar beach, I was unconsciously drawn into distant memories.

Because of her outstanding academic performance, she was ostracized by her classmates, which she couldn't understand at the time, and therefore she didn't like her hometown that much.

Because negative emotions became connected to their hometown.

But now that I'm back, that unpleasant feeling has faded a lot without me even realizing it.

He smiled, a warmth appearing in his eyes.

Was it a dream?

A woman put down her bicycle and looked at the two of them with surprise.

I called out softly, feeling a little embarrassed. "Mom, I'm home."

"Oh dear, you didn't even tell me you were coming back."

"Is this your friend? Come on in."

My dream's mother, Takayama Shigemi, was very hospitable and invited Xia Yu to go home together.

It's clear she's a very gentle person.

The weather was hot, and a large plate of crispy watermelon was served.

Xia Yu didn't stand on ceremony and started biting into it.

"Auntie, actually I dreamt I came back to you because I have something to tell you." Seeing the atmosphere was a bit somber, Xia Yu took the initiative to speak.

"Um," I said, taking small bites of watermelon, unsure how to begin.

He dropped out of university and went on to pursue a dangerous career like XIG.

My mom will be very worried.

While I was struggling with how to start the conversation, towering waves surged up on the distant beach, and then a colossal creature emerged from the spray.

Xia Yu sighed and put down the watermelon. The protagonist's halo was a nightmare halo for others.

The main character will be fine, but the supporting characters who are just watching the show are likely to die at any moment.

I hope I'm not the unlucky one.
