Ultraman: I Really Didn't Want to Rule the World

He stretched out his hand, and golden particles of light drifted around him, only to be stained dark as soon as they touched his fingertips.

He withdrew his hand with some disappointment, and looked up to find that all the light particles around him had turned into darkness.

The figure shrouded in black mist was indistinct, with only two points of red light watching the golden phoenix, flashing with an ominous light.

So everyone watching this scene was drawn to Sila's transformed appearance, watching it fly further and further away with Tiga.

Unbeknownst to anyone, the person shrouded in black mist had vanished without a trace.

Chapter 56 Nezu

When Hong Tu returned home, she looked up and saw Tong Ye sitting on the sofa, seemingly having been there for a long time.

Hong Tu suppressed her cold emotions and gave her son a bright, sunny smile.

"I'm back, little shepherd."

Kirino replied coldly, "We have guests at home who are looking for you."

Hong Tu was stunned for a moment before realizing that there seemed to be two very familiar lights in the house, and they were in her bedroom.

Perhaps hearing Hong Tu's voice, the bedroom door opened, and a girl peeked out. On her shoulder stood a bird with golden feathers.

The girl noticed the young man standing at the door and ran out happily: "Mr. Hong, you're back."

"Mami?" Hong Tu looked at the girl who ran up to him and stopped in front of him, completely confused. The bird on the girl's shoulder tilted its head, fluttered its wings, and landed on the young man's shoulder.

"Sila, what are you doing here?"

"Chirp chirp," like a little phoenix, Sila bounced and hopped on his shoulder, chattering away as she explained to him.

The girl on the side would occasionally add a comment.

“Mr. Tiga helped Sila transform into light and complete her final evolution.”

"chirp"

"Because Mr. Red gave Sila a lot of power before, Sila was able to help me have a body too."

"chirp"

After some explanation, Hongtu nodded and placed two glasses of milk in front of Tongye and Mami, who were sitting on either side of the tea table, while placing a can of soda in front of herself.

Kirino stared at the milk in front of him, then his gaze shifted to the soda in front of Hongtu, before he looked up again, his intense gaze fixed on Hongtu, who was turning her head to talk to Mami.

Hong Tu remained oblivious: "So what are you planning to do now? Have you gone to see your father?"

Mami shook her head. After all, she had just been resurrected and was also confused. Her first instinct was to find Hongtu, and she didn't have time to do anything else.

What's more, she doesn't even know where her father is.

"Chirp!" Sila flew from the young man's shoulder to the girl's shoulder, gently nuzzling her face with her fluffy head to comfort her.

“Let me go and find out about your father first,” Hong Tu said, putting down her drink can. “I’ll go find him first. I heard he’s not doing well.”

"Mmm." The girl nodded emphatically.

Twenty years ago, a young girl died in an accident at home, forced to face the reality of being separated from her lover forever. Fortunately, because of Sila, her soul was preserved, and although she could not communicate with anyone except Hong Tu, she persevered.

With Silas by her side, her only concern was her father.

At that time, her father's research suffered a setback, and she herself died because of his research. With this series of blows, she didn't know if her father would be devastated and remain immersed in pain and regret.

It's impossible for someone not to miss their father after twenty years.

After receiving the girl's affirmation, Hong Tu turned to look at the silent Kirino.

When Kirino saw him and the girl turn to stare at him, his forehead twitched involuntarily, but out of consideration for the girl, he still gave her an address and added dryly at the end, "You'd better go early."

After saying that, he fell silent.

Is this how you use my superpowers?

Having obtained the address, Hong Tu stood up and beckoned the girl to come along: "Let's go, it'll be dark soon."

Mami, with Sila by her side, followed him out the door.

Inside the room, Kirino stared at the milk on the table for a long time before finally picking it up and drinking it all down, one sip at a time.

Outside, Hong Tu led Ma Mei into the courtyard, stretched out his arms, and his dark eyes gradually turned red, revealing a black hole in front of them.

"Let's go." The young man entered the pitch-black hole first, and the girl looked at the black hole in front of her, which resembled a teleportation portal, with surprise, and followed the young man into it.

A slight dizziness ran through her head, and for a fleeting moment, darkness enveloped her. When she blinked again, the girl found herself standing in front of a small building.

"Amazing." Mami turned her head, and the portal behind her had already disappeared.

"Chirp!" Sira flapped her wings and chirped in agreement.

"Does Sila think so too?" the girl teased the parrot on her shoulder.

It was at this moment that the door of the small building was opened.

A man with slightly graying hair came out, and only looked up after realizing that there were two people standing at the door.

At that one glance, both the man and the girl froze on the spot.

"M-Mami?" Dr. Nezu's body trembled as he reached out, taking a difficult step to touch the girl's face. "Is it you? Mami!"

"Daddy!" The girl suddenly threw herself into her father's arms, her voice choked with sobs.

Because of Mami's movements, Sila had to take flight, circled a few times, and finally landed on Dr. Nezu's shoulder.

"Is it really you, Mami?" He trembled as he hugged the girl tightly, trying to prove that this was not a dream.

"Dad, I'm back." The girl's face was full of tears, but she smiled very happily.

Dr. Nezu, nicknamed "Mamami," carefully touched the girl's face.

Mami grabbed that hand and gently rubbed it against her cheek, savoring the familiar feeling.

Dr. Nezu finally realized that this was indeed his daughter, not a dream.

Overwhelmed by emotion, his ailing body couldn't hold on any longer and he coughed up blood.

"Dad!" Mami sensed something was wrong when he coughed, and when she saw the blood peeking through his fingers, she panicked even more.

Dr. Nezu wanted to say he was fine, but he couldn't stop coughing. Instead, he started to feel dizzy, his legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

"Dad! Dad!" Mami kept calling him anxiously.

Hong Tu frowned, walked over to the two of them, and immediately saw that the man's body was already terminally ill. In fact, because of the joy he had just experienced, it wouldn't be surprising if he died immediately.

"Sila!" There was no other way; his strength was simply not suitable for saving people, so he could only rely on Sila.

With a "whoosh," golden light shone from Sila's body, covering the Doctor's body.

After the golden light faded, the doctor coughed lightly and woke up.

"Dad!" Mami finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Dad, where do you feel unwell?"

“Mami!” Dr. Nezu struggled to his feet, disregarding his own body, and instead gripped the girl’s hand tightly. “You’re really back! Mami.”

"Yes, I'm back, Daddy. Sila and I are back together!" The girl nodded, and Sila, perched on the Doctor's shoulder, called out in response.

"How could you?" the doctor was about to ask, but then stopped himself. "It's good that you're back. Come on, let's go inside."

After saying that, he pulled the girl into the house.

Hong Tu, who was also standing outside, realized that she had been completely ignored.

The young man opened his mouth, but in the end he said nothing. Instead, he kept a low profile and followed them inside.

The young man stopped sitting on the sofa and leaned against the wall, waving to Sila.

Sila flew onto his shoulder and tilted her head to look at him.

"How much longer can Dr. Nezu's body hold out?" Hong Tu asked quietly, glancing at the two people sitting on the sofa, talking excitedly.

"Chirp chirp!" Sila replied softly as well.

"Just a few days? You can't save him?"

Hong Tu, being not a light-elemental being, didn't understand much about light and simply believed that light could save people.

Unexpectedly, Sila could only temporarily suppress the doctor's condition and use light to prolong his life, but she could not cure his illness.

"Chirp," Sera lowered her head, seemingly also very sad. It could turn Dr. Nezu into light after his death, but it couldn't cure his illness.

"Never mind, I can't help with what happens after that." Hong Tu shook her head. "Remember to tell Mami."

I'll be going now.

The little bird nodded, spread its wings, and flew back to Mami's shoulder.

Mami then thought of the young man, and when she turned her head again, she only saw a golden feather falling to the ground, while the young man who had been leaning against the wall had disappeared.

Hongtu saw Mami again at Dr. Nezu's funeral.

Because of Zildar gas, Dr. Nezu lost his standing in academia and even became a ostracized scientist.

So after his death, only one close friend came, along with Mami and Hongtu.

Although Mami was sad, there was also a hint of relief in her expression.

Hong Tu could see that a new kind of light had appeared in Xila's body. It was fainter than Xila's, but it was real.

After helping Mami with her funeral, the Hongtu family welcomed two new members.

That's right, Mami and Sila moved into Hongtu's house.

Kirino, who had no room for comment, said:

Chapter 57 New Urban Legends

Today is another good day for working.

Hong Tu handed the completed manuscript to Mr. Onoda: "This is the report about that strange bird from a while ago. I found detailed information about this bird, so it can be considered first-hand information."

"Okay." Onoda looked through the manuscript and nodded in satisfaction. "I'll send you the money later."
