Dark Tiga, what are you doing?

Chapter 218 Ancient Past Events

Torregia waited in the special cage on the Alchemy Star, convinced that things were going as he expected. But he waited a long time without anyone returning. This completely baffled Torregia. It seemed that things weren't as he had thought.

Could it be that the other party is simply coming over to mock me?

Torregia pondered.

Would the other party really have such a twisted sense of humor? Given the immense dark power they possess, would they really do something like this?
Normally, Torregia wouldn't think that such a powerful dark being would do such a thing.

However, the thought that the other party might have been suppressing their feelings for a long time, coupled with his own accidental arrival and the coincidence of this series of events, might actually come to mock him first before leaving, made Toregia's face darken.

Outrageous.

But he was completely helpless. He did nothing after landing on the planet, since he hadn't thought much about it at first and felt that there was nothing on the planet that could threaten him.

Unfortunately, they encountered the strongest opponent right from the start.

This is really bad luck.

“Taro, are you satisfied now?” Tregear murmured.

He stood up and looked into the distance, as if traversing endless time and space, his gaze falling upon the Land of Light, looking at Taro.

I wonder if Taro, knowing his current predicament, would say he brought it on himself, or would come to persuade him and save him under the guise of justice.

Torregia shook his head.

Sit down again.

suddenly.

It's like it sensed something.
Suddenly he raised his head again.

Even through the special prison of Alchemy Star, he seemed to sense Taro's presence, though it was extremely faint and fleeting. Had he not been a longtime friend of Taro, he wouldn't have noticed it at all.

"Taero...?"

Torregia was surprised.

I don't understand why I would have this feeling when I'm perfectly fine.

Could it be because I miss Taro too much?

Outrageous.

Although Taro does hold a very important place in Toregia's heart.

However, Tregear doesn't think he misses Taro to that extent. There must be a reason for this. Could it be that Taro is actually on this planet?
But that doesn't make sense.

If Taro were on this planet, he would have appeared and met with me immediately upon hearing the news of my appearance, my fall into darkness, and my arrest. It's impossible that he hasn't appeared yet, or that I only sensed his presence before he disappeared.

Torregia was completely baffled.

After careful consideration, he realized that something related to Taro had appeared on this planet, which led him to sense Taro's presence.

That's it.

unimportant.

Looking at the cage that Hikari had specially made for him, Tregear touched some scientific instruments and tools that he had stolen from the Land of Light.

He was confident that he could break free from the cage of Alchemy Star in a short time, but he had to be very careful. After all, there were several Ultramen guarding Alchemy Star, and even if he broke the cage, it would be quite difficult for him to leave Alchemy Star openly.

……

the other side.

The Holy Maiden Camilla, dispatched by the Holy Kingdom, held a secret meeting with the captain of the TPC Victory Team.

The TPC takes the existence of the Holy Kingdom quite seriously.

The sacred Kingdom of Heaven takes this meeting quite seriously.

The meeting was successfully held shortly afterward, surrounded by a large crowd. A large number of believers followed outside the door, and TPC armed personnel followed behind the captain.

The brightly lit meeting room.

Camilla had prepared for this meeting for a long time, and in order to maintain a good working relationship with TPC, she did a lot of research before coming.

She sat calmly in the conference room.

This meeting was crucial, both for the Holy Kingdom and the TPC. Given the Holy Kingdom's current size and the TPC's relatively mild strategic approach, coupled with the fact that many high-ranking members had joined the Holy Kingdom, they needed to pay close attention to this. Mishandling it could lead to rifts among high-ranking members or even unseen conspiracies.

Camilla is confident she can handle whoever TPC sends.

Just as Camilla was waiting confidently, Megumi Iruma, the captain of the Victory Team and the representative recommended by TPC, pushed open the door and walked in.

Kijima Megumi also attached great importance to this meeting, so she made preparations in advance before coming, just to have a good talk with the representatives selected by the Holy Kingdom.

Captain Megumi is currently serving as Nexus's human form, while also holding a significant position within the upper echelons.

Captain Megumi naturally did not want to fall out with the Holy Kingdom. After her intensive investigation over this period, she discovered that the Holy Kingdom was at least quite good for the people at present.

If possible, this relationship could continue.

If the Holy Kingdom can continue to function normally, it will become the largest welfare organization in human society. Although he doesn't know why the Holy Kingdom's leadership is doing these things, or what kind of conspiracy is behind it, at least the current situation is extremely good.

And now, she is negotiating in order to learn about some things concerning the Holy Kingdom.

At the very least, take a look at the attitude of the Holy Kingdom.

Let's see if we can extract any information from them.

This way, we can better understand what kind of existence the Holy Kingdom really is.
Captain Megumi wasn't worried that the Holy Kingdom would use its supernatural powers to threaten or control her.

After all, she possesses the power of the Nexus Light within her, and the light of Nexus is enough to protect her. If the Holy Kingdom reveals anything amiss during these negotiations, the captain will not hesitate to transform into Nexus and teach them a lesson, even if they are a global religion with a vast number of followers.

But a short, sharp pain is worse than a long, drawn-out one; it would be quicker to take action all at once. This was what Captain Megumi was thinking.

Of course, the most important point is to destroy the power of the Holy Kingdom's high command.

It will be much safer.

Even if the subsequent actions of believers will have a huge impact.

Furthermore, the captain can request assistance from other Ultramen when necessary.

This is also why she is confident.

Captain Megumi's mind flashed with the face of Tenryukai from the Logistics Department.

No wonder that guy was so unhurried.

Emotionally, he became Ultraman's human form long ago. He possesses extraordinary powers.

Furthermore, with so many evil invaders coming to Earth every day, it's clear that the other party doesn't want to join the GUTS team. After all, the GUTS members are usually quite busy.

Compared to the logistics department, the Victory Team was much busier.

When Captain Megumi first saw the representative of the Holy Kingdom.

For some reason, the way she looked at the other person felt very familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere before. But the captain was certain that this was definitely their first time meeting. Why did she have this strange feeling?
The captain was stunned.

Camilla was stunned when she saw the captain for the first time.

She never expected that the representative sent by the Victory Team would be their old enemy from 30 million years ago.

Even though this wasn't the old rival himself, but rather his direct descendant, Camilla's heart still crumbled somewhat when she saw that the other person had the exact same face as Yu Lian.

The words I had prepared in my mind were instantly forgotten.

I can't even say what I want to say.

The expression on his face gradually became quite interesting.

After Captain Megumi took her seat, neither of them spoke.

Everyone fell silent.

And time was passing by, second by second.

They had prepared for this meeting for a long time and made many preparations, but when they finally met, neither of them uttered a single word.

They just silently watched each other.

Captain Megumi felt that the more she looked at the other person's face, the more familiar it seemed, as if she had known him before.

As the captain's feelings gradually surfaced, images of Camilla from the past began to appear before her eyes. Back then, Camilla was the goddess of the empire and the first human to successfully evolve into a giant. At that time, Camilla was the focus of everyone's attention.

He has lived a very exciting life.

Camilla wore an imperial robe and a mysterious crystal on her forehead, giving her a unique and sacred appearance.

In my memory, the other person was just silently watching me.

Captain Megumi was stunned by what she saw.

I could hardly believe my eyes.

Instead, as she rubbed her eyes, the images of Camilla looking at her disappeared, replaced by a normal scene of Camilla looking at herself.

The captain could hardly believe his eyes. He rubbed them again, and the scene before him shifted back to the ancient past. Camilla had betrayed the Empire, now clad in a long black robe, a dark gold mask concealing her within. Her radiance had faded into darkness, clearly indicating her irreconcilable enmity with the Empire. The captain, as the legion commander, was desperately trying to persuade Camilla to repent.

This is really weird.

This is definitely not something that has happened recently.

Captain Megumi stared wide-eyed at the scene.

It seems the representative sent by the Holy Kingdom has a more interesting backstory than she imagined. And it's a story between them. After learning about the ancient times from Yuzare, Captain Megumi has gained a better understanding of her own identity.

If the scene unfolding before her eyes wasn't her own memory, then it was a memory passed down through her bloodline. It was a record of events within the bloodline inherited from Yu Lian.

Was the other person also from the ancient era? Or was she a descendant of a bloodline that was preserved through cloning, just like her?

Captain Megumi's intuition leaned more towards the theory of a clone descendant. After all, if the other party had lived from the ancient times to the present, their age would be far too ancient—a full 30 million years.

If the other party is a clone descendant, does their meeting represent a continuation of events from the ancient past, or a new development?

For an instant.

Captain Megumi had many thoughts on this.

Camilla also took a deep breath.

I kept telling myself to stay calm and composed.

There can be no chaos.

But whenever she saw Captain Megumi and Yuzare's completely copied faces, Camilla found it really hard to stay calm.

Calm down, must be calm.

Camilla kept telling herself that Yuzare couldn't possibly be like her, surviving from the ancient times to the present. Yuzare hadn't completed her transformation into a Giant of Light and her lifespan was limited. The person before her was at most a descendant of Yuzare's bloodline.

The matter between her and Yu Lian ended 30 million years ago, so there's no need to bring emotions from 30 million years ago into the modern world.

Moreover, she's currently working for Dark Tiga, and she needs to do things perfectly so that she can present them to Dark Tiga and let him see his comrade from 30 million years ago. He'll still be incredibly useful even 30 million years later.

With some self-comfort, Camilla eventually returned to normal, then put on a calm smile and began discussing important matters between the Holy Kingdom and the TPC with Captain Megumi.

Seeing that the other party had returned to normal and was the first to speak, Captain Megumi, as expected of the captain of the GUTS team, quickly regained her composure and then maintained a normal state to communicate with Camilla.

Let's talk about what she saw later; the important thing right now is to focus on the main business.

Both parties were willing to reach a good cooperation agreement, and they quickly signed an agreement after their orderly exchanges.

This signifies the TPC's recognition of the Holy Kingdom's existence. The Holy Kingdom, in turn, is willing to follow the TPC's lead in certain areas and may even provide assistance when necessary.

“Well then, it’s a pleasure to cooperate. I hope the Holy Kingdom will remain consistent and continue to uphold this principle,” Captain Megumi nodded and put away the documents.

“Naturally, we also hope that TPC will keep its promise.” Camilla, as a saintess, represents the Holy Kingdom.

After the two of them had finished all their business.

None of them were the first to leave.

Instead, they just sat silently in their original seats, staring at each other.

You look at me, I look at you.

Silence fell again.

No one said a word.

It seemed like they had something to say to each other, but neither of them said it.

They just waited for the other person to speak first.
