Across countless worlds: Yearning to become a giant of light.

Chapter 63 Daigo's Shura Field: First Clues

Meanwhile, Daigo, far away in New York, also experienced a similar 'gravity field' event...

Daigo and Shinjo, who had been given a day off by Megumi, along with Rena who was staying with them, changed into casual clothes and arrived in the world's most bustling metropolis.

At least in this era, under this worldview.

New York is indeed the most bustling metropolis in the world.

"Strange, why did the captain suddenly give us a day off? What if a monster suddenly appears?"

I don't feel like having much fun in the new town.

He's got nothing but thoughts about Jeep No. 3 on his mind right now.

"yes……"

Daigo was the same.

His mind was filled with thoughts of Camilla and Chaos, as well as the power and responsibility of the giants...

"It's because you two look so preoccupied that you've given the newcomers in the logistics team a bad impression, which is why the captain sent you here to adjust your mindset!"

Lina, dressed in casual urban attire, stood with her hands on her hips and spoke to the two of them.

"Newcomer?" x2
Shinjo and Daigo looked at each other in bewilderment upon hearing this.

At this moment, they all thought of the members of the Victory Logistics Team they had seen earlier. It turned out that it was that person who had snitched!

"So that was the time..."

Xincheng scratched his head.

He should have found a quiet place to complain, so that his juniors wouldn't have overheard him and damaged the image of the GUTS team.

"So, you two should really relax and unwind!"

After saying that, Lina pushed Shinjo and Daigo to the nearest concert stage, where a well-known band was performing.

Shinjo and Daigo initially seemed a bit out of place among the cheering crowd, but as Lina brought over a bag of McDonald's meals, they started showing off while slowly swaying their bodies to the music on stage.

However, Daigo spotted a familiar figure outside the crowd.

"Camilla..."

Despite the large number of people around, Daigo spotted the other person with incredible accuracy. Without even saying a word to Rena or Shinjo, he followed his instincts and chased after them.

…………

"What a decadent civilization..."

The banks of the Hudson River.

Camilla stood by the railing, gazing at the brightly lit modern metropolis in the distance, but her eyes held little affection.

"Chaos, violence, and indulgence... Is this the civilization you want to protect, Ultraman Tiga?"

Camilla said with a disappointed tone.

Although the online posts about her and Ultraman Tiga provided her with a lot of emotional support during this period.

However, one thing at a time, she still doesn't see how the humans of this era are qualified to be protected by Tiga.

"Camilla?"

At this moment, Daigo caught up with them and, seeing Camilla standing by the railing, couldn't help but call out her name.

Camilla: --?!

The familiar voice made her forget the time for a moment, as if she had returned to the past, and she couldn't help but turn her head.

Unfortunately, when Camilla saw Daigo, his youthful and innocent demeanor, so different from Tiga's, immediately brought her back to reality.

"Diga..."

"I heard what you just said!"

Daigo walked up to Camilla and said solemnly.

"Chaos, violence, and indulgence are indeed human flaws, but humans also have gentleness, kindness, and thoughtfulness—these are the beautiful aspects of our human nature!"

This is what Xincheng told him before.

'us……?'

Upon hearing Daigo's words, Camilla, who had intended to mock his naivety, was momentarily at a loss for words.

Besides Tiga (Daigo) once again placing himself in the position of a human, there is another point that she cannot deny.

Beyond the chaos she witnessed in the metropolis, Camilla also saw members of Jeep Three appear before her family in the form of willpower energy entities.

With human will, we will overcome the power of cosmic life forms!
Even in that era (ancient civilization), they were among the very few.

"Camilla, there's a question... I've been wanting to ask you for a while now."

Seeing that Camilla hadn't answered for a long time, Daigo brought up a question that had been on his mind for a long time.

"Since you created such an advanced civilization 30 million years ago... why are you the only one left? Where did the others go?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of reminiscence flashed in Camilla's eyes.

She recalled the apocalyptic vision that Qi Jie had unleashed upon the entire world. "Some people died, some escaped to other places..."

There are also some people (like me) who choose to become giants.

"But Camilla, since you are a giant with such great power, and there are so many giants around, why couldn't you protect the ancient civilization?"

In the past, Camilla might have said it was because of Tiga's betrayal, but now, facing Daigo's tone, which sounded more like an interrogation than a question, she simply couldn't bring herself to say those angry words.

"Because giants are light...they do not interfere with human choices."

When Camilla said those words, she was essentially peeling off the skin of "the Titan itself" that she was wearing.

However, she was surprised to find that she wasn't angry about it. Instead, she felt a sense of falling from a high platform, followed by a feeling of relief as if a huge weight had been lifted from her heart.

How strange...

"Let me tell you, Tiga, what happened back then..."

Camilla briefly recounted the story of the ancient times to Daigo, without embellishing the details of Tiga's betrayal.

"So...you are actually also the successors of the Titans?"

Daigo's face showed a complicated expression.

Although Camilla answered all his questions, the truth about the destruction of the ancient civilization shattered his illusions, especially the Dark Giants, who seemed to be beings who had fallen from grace.

Ultimately, it all comes down to human selfishness...

"The successor..."

Camilla's smile carried a hint of bitterness.

“But you are different, Tiga. You are the one chosen by the light, unlike us who seek the power of the giants.”

"The one chosen by the light...me?"

Daigo fell into a brief moment of contemplation.

Camilla looked at Daigo's pensive profile and couldn't help but reach out her hand, but quickly withdrew it.

After tearing away the fig leaf of the war of giants, Camilla suddenly felt inferior to him (Tiga), who had 'never fallen into darkness', and felt unworthy to stand beside him.

After all, he was the chosen savior of the light, while I was just a human with the power of a giant who had fallen into darkness.

"Tiga... After knowing all this, do you still consider me your ally? As the enemy of the Giant of Light?"

Actually, I also want to become light again...

Camilla lowered her eyes, her gaze becoming somewhat listless.

This was the moment when she was most vulnerable.

"Camilla, as I said before... I am me, and Tiga is Tiga. Although I use Tiga's power, I will not forget who I am."

Daigo explained to Camilla again in a serious tone;

“I haven’t experienced the ancient civilization you mentioned… I only know that you helped humanity before and fought alongside me, and that’s enough.”

Camilla: ...!
"Really? Really, really, really, really, really... really?!"

Daigo's words made Camilla suddenly raise her head, her lifeless eyes regained their light, and she exuded an aura that was unimaginable to ordinary people.

She then began to approach Daigo step by step.

Dangerous distance!

"Camilla?"

As Camilla pressed on, Daigo panicked. He initially argued with Camilla with great enthusiasm, but when she flipped the table, he realized that he was powerless to resist!
Soon he was backed into a corner.

"Daigo! Daigo!"

As luck would have it, Rena and Shinjo, who had just discovered Daigo was missing, came out to look for him and ended up here.

"Lina? Shinjo!"

Daigo turned his head in a panic towards the direction from which the two voices came.

The two of them also saw from afar... Daigo being pinned against the wall by a white-haired beauty.

"Dagu..."

Lina dropped the cola in her hand to the ground.

"Big... huh?"

Xincheng was completely dumbfounded.

"We'll have plenty of time later... Daigo~"

Camilla flashed a youthful smile, lightly wiped his face, and then floated away.

Daigo was left alone, bewildered in the wind.

Then, Lina, who was walking over step by step, saw Lina's subconscious gesture of touching her face, and the air around them suddenly felt heavy.

Shinjo, who was standing to the side, was about to say something jealous, but was immediately suppressed by Lina's cold gaze.
