Ultraman cubs begin to wreak havoc.

"This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but if it's not handled properly, your identity as someone who isn't from Earth will be exposed."

"What are you talking about? I'm just an Earthling."

The boy quietly objected to his alien companion's explanation, but the alien couldn't help but retort:

"When I was in danger, you were the only one who heard my cries for help, and your jumping ability is also extraordinary... This doesn't seem like an ability that an Earthling could possess."

"Alright, alright, Peja, let's leave this topic at that."

The boy named Riku... who was also named Riku Asakura thought about it and realized that his behavior was indeed a bit off, but he didn't care much about it. He grew up on Earth, so he was naturally an Earthling.

"By the way, Peja, do you think... there really are Ultra Warriors?"

At that moment, Asakura Riku seemed to remember something and looked at the Pegasa alien named 'Pega' beside him, saying:

"If they really existed, wouldn't they pass by Earth?"

"Of course Ultra Warriors exist."

Pei-Chia glanced at the alarm clock on the table, which had stopped working, picked it up casually, and said as she repaired it:

"Although I haven't seen them, the name of Ultraman is still widely known among my race. No, to be precise, Ultraman is quite famous throughout the universe. As for whether they will pass by here, it's hard to say. After all, they have already eliminated the enemy. If there's nothing else, they probably won't come back."

The "elimination of the enemy" that Peja mentioned is the "Inpac Crisis" mentioned in the previous TV program. However, although it is called a crisis, there is no disaster on Earth related to it. Rather, it is a very strange phenomenon. Even though nothing is happening around them, many people feel as if they have died, and the city has become a ruin. In the center of the city, there should be two tall giants.

Fortunately, this illusion did not cause any mental illness, and everyone quickly adapted and continued living their lives. However, not long after, new situations arose. Some people accidentally discovered strange photos in their cameras, and others found strange videos on their phones.

Both the photos and the videos point to the same scene—

A deadly battle between two giants!

360 Asakura Riku: What the hell?

"Ultraman warriors, they're so cool!"

Asakura Riku, recalling the tokusatsu drama he had just finished watching, couldn't help but stand up and perform a set of punches with a "hoho haha" sound. Of course, Asakura Riku didn't know any martial arts or fighting; those moves were just imitations of the Flash Man on TV.

Asakura Riku finished his cringeworthy antics in what he thought was a cool pose, then grinned foolishly, sat back down on the mat, and said with longing in his voice:

"I really want to meet that Ultraman warrior, that giant of light radiating azure light, he's so cool, he's like a legendary hero."

"Haha, I actually hope that person won't come again."

With a "whoosh," Pei-Jia placed the alarm clock she had casually fixed on the table, then propped her cheek up and whispered:

"Xiao Lu, you should still remember, right? The battle between those two giants destroyed the entire city. You and I were both affected. Even though I dragged you into the Dark Realm, we still died in the end."

"But haven't we already been resurrected?"

Upon hearing this, Riku Asakura thought for a moment, tilted his head and muttered softly. He and Peja also remembered everything they had experienced during the Impack crisis, and they remembered it more clearly than others.

To be honest, neither Asakura Riku nor Pega had a bad experience with death. In fact, it was rather comfortable. It was like taking a deep nap in bed and then opening your eyes to feel refreshed and clear-headed. They didn't feel scared or desperate at all.

Was it because he died too quickly?

Asakura Riku swayed from side to side, deep in thought, while casually remarking:

"Peja, just how powerful are the Ultra Warriors? They can even revive themselves... Wait, Peja, are you saying that it's not revival, but time reversal?!"

"How would I know?"

Looking at the extremely excited Asakura Riku in front of him, Pei Dajia said with some helplessness:

"Even though I'm from outer space, I haven't seen much of the world. I'm practically a child myself, you know. What kid my age would know so much...?"

'boom! ! ! ’

"Huh?!" x2

Just as Peijia was speaking, a loud bang rang out, followed by an unusual tremor that shook even the alarm clock on the table. This noise immediately reminded them of something ominous, and their expressions changed slightly. Asakura Riku gave an unnatural smile and said softly:

"It should be...it must be an earthquake."

"Obviously not!"

Peja pointed at the window behind Asakura Riku and shouted:

"A monster! It's a monster!"

"Eh!!!"

Riku Asakura yelled and turned his head to look. He saw a huge creature that looked a bit like a dinosaur. If Subaru Minamoto were here, he would have noticed that this monster had stripes on its chest like Belial's. Gomora's features could be seen from the horns on its head, the lower part of its body and tail, while Red King's features could be seen from its back and the upper part of its tail. This monster looked exactly like a Frankenstein's monster.

At this moment, as the monster advanced, the surrounding buildings collapsed one after another, and thick smoke and explosions began to appear continuously in the city, and destruction descended upon this place once again.

"Residents, please evacuate immediately! Residents, please evacuate immediately! Residents, please evacuate immediately!"

The city's loudspeakers were already blaring, urging residents to evacuate their homes immediately. Asakura Riku quickly grabbed his coat, tossed a few things into his backpack, and called out to Peggy:

"Quick, quick, quick! The monster is coming this way!"

"Oh!"

Peja responded and then hid in Asakura Riku's shadow. Asakura Riku was also quite reckless. Startled, he jumped out of the second-floor window. However, given his physique, this was not enough to injure him. But when he landed, the shock caused by the monster made him lose his balance and fall flat on his face.

"Damn monster, get out of here! Don't come any closer!!"

Ok? !

At that moment, Riku Asakura heard a familiar voice. He got up and looked back, and saw the shopkeeper standing at the shop entrance, roaring angrily at the monster. Clearly, the middle-aged shopkeeper was unwilling to lose his shop and was putting up a feeble resistance.

"Manager, hurry, we're going to be late!"

Seeing the monster that was about to arrive, Riku Asakura was startled. After all, when he jumped down, the monster looked quite far away and clumsy, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

So, without thinking, Riku Asakura hoisted the unwilling shopkeeper up and ran out quickly. Amid the shopkeeper's heartbroken wails, the general store that held the shopkeeper and Riku Asakura's beautiful memories was trampled flat by the monster and buried in flames.

The commotion caused by the monster meant that Asakura Riku was only able to sit down and rest by evening. He lay on the grass, staring blankly at the sky, lost in thought. After a while, he took out a radio from his backpack, wanting to listen to something to distract himself.

Although Peja is currently within his shadow, the current situation clearly doesn't favor bringing out someone who doesn't seem to be from Earth. While it would allow Peja to converse with him within the Dark Realm, however...

Let's forget about it. Pei-Jia is probably quite confused right now, and it would be a bit unfair to confide my own anxieties to her.

"The bipedal giant creature that suddenly appeared in Xingshan City today is continuing its westward movement. Refuge notices have been issued for Xingshan City and surrounding areas. Residents in the area are requested to follow the instructions of the police and fire department..."

"Xiao Lu."

However, the radio was playing news about the monster, which only made Asakura Riku more annoyed. At the same time, a familiar voice came from not far away. Asakura Riku got up and looked over, and saw the shopkeeper calling to him from the crowd of people walking on the edge of the lawn.

"Manager, have you finished dealing with your matter?"

Asakura Riku rushed over and asked with concern. The shop manager nodded and said with a sigh of relief:

"Ah, I've contacted my family. They're all safe and sound. They're currently with my grandfather in Kamitomo Town. I'm going there next. Riku, you..."

"I'm going to stay at my friend's house."

Asakura Riku knew what the manager was going to say, but he politely declined the suggestion. He had already troubled the manager for a long time, and under the circumstances, he shouldn't cause any more trouble for him.

"Okay, if you run into any trouble, remember to contact me immediately."

The store manager sighed, nodded in response, then looked across at the city still billowing smoke and said with a sigh:

"But I really didn't expect there to actually be monsters."

"yes...."

Asakura Riku, somewhat dejectedly, responded in a low voice:

"If I had abilities like Flashy Man, maybe I could protect everyone..."

"Well, if you have that ability, I believe you can definitely do it, Riku."

The store manager patted Asakura Riku on the shoulder and said softly:

"I'm leaving now. Remember to contact me once things have settled down."

"Ah, store manager, have a safe trip."

After seeing the shop manager off, Asakura Riku also embarked on a journey to find a place to stay, but...

"Xiao Lu, do you have any other friends?"

On the dark street, Riku Asakura walked listlessly, carrying his backpack. Just then, Pei-Chia's voice came from the darkness. Riku had just gone to several friends he knew, hoping to stay with them for a while, but all of them refused.

Asakura Riku's silence, without answering, already spoke volumes. Peja sighed helplessly, saying:

"It seems they aren't true friends."

"Well, that's not a problem."

Asakura Riku closed his eyes, exhaled softly, and then, as if filled with renewed energy, smiled, straightened his chest, raised his head, and held up one finger, saying:

"This is when you should remember my wise saying."

"You're here again..."

"We must never sit idly by and wait for death!"

Amidst Pei Jia's sarcastic remarks, Asakura Riku smiled optimistically and said:

"Sleeping on the streets might be quite interesting."

"It's hard to say about these things... What's wrong, Xiao Lu?"
