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

"Tongkaraling Ruins," Daigo read the address on the email, his brows furrowing deeply.

I know the address, but how do I explain it to the team members?

Fortunately, he didn't have to find a way to explain.

Captain Megumi has ordered everyone to patrol the vicinity of Kumamoto City to search for traces of the monster, as it has escaped.

Horii even took Shinjo directly to the vicinity of the Tonkalarin ruins.

"Didn't we receive a report recently about strange noises coming from here? I think that monster also went underground, so maybe there's some connection between them."

Hearing Horii's analysis over the communication channel, Daigo silently gave him a thumbs up.

As expected of Horii.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, just as Kirino had said in his email, Gaiozak appeared in the northern part of the Tonkalaling Ruins. The shark's fins moved towards the amusement park.

"The monster's direction of movement has been determined; it's heading towards Mitsui Amusement Park!" Nori's voice came through the communication screen.

Upon hearing that it was an amusement park, Zongfang's expression turned serious: "There are a lot of children there!"

Lina, stop him!

"Understood!" Lina's face darkened. "I won't let this go!"

Horii and Shinjo immediately rushed to the amusement park and worked with the staff to evacuate the crowd.

Lina piloted the plane, launching continuous attacks on the fish fins that were protruding from the ground, but the impact was very limited and could not stop the fish at all.

Upon seeing this, Daigo instinctively reached for the transformation device in his pocket. Suddenly, he sensed a slight movement in the Spark Lens. Before he could check it, a voice interrupted him.

"Why don't you transform into light?" A male voice suddenly appeared in his ear.

Daigo looked up and saw the image of a man on the front window of the plane.

"Who are you?" Daigo was startled by the other party's sudden appearance. "Telepathy?"

Masaki smiled and said, "I don't have that kind of boring power. What I have is brainpower."

He looked down on superpowers like Kirino's, and he didn't need them, because his intelligence was enough to crush those boring superpowers.

Just like Kirino, isn't he also unable to hear his own inner voice now?

"Besides, like you, I also possess something." Masaki revealed a smug smile. "Come on, let me see how you became light." Let me see how you became light!

Daigo was startled, and when he looked again, he found that the figure had gradually disappeared.

"Daigo? Daigo!" Rena's voice finally came through. "What are you doing? The monster is almost at the amusement park!"

"Sorry!" Daigo withdrew his hand. He didn't intend to transform at the moment; it was just an instinctive action.

He pulled the control stick, bringing the plane back up from the near crash caused by his distraction, and turned it around to head towards Lina.

The two planes attacked the fish fins in the air, but the attack was ineffective and could not stop the fish's advance at all.

"It's no use, we can't stop the monsters at all!" Rena's voice reached Daigo's ears, including that last murmur, "If only Tiga were here."

Upon hearing this, Daigo touched his chest again.

"What are you still hesitating about?" Masaki reappeared before him. "What, do you think the danger of revealing your identity is more important than monster attacks on humans?"

Daigo was taken aback, then suddenly realized something: "You guys are together?"

“Don’t misunderstand, he and I are just business partners.” Masaki knew who he was talking about, of course. “There are some differences between us.”

"why?"

"There are no more whys. If you don't transform, Georzak is going to attack the amusement park."

After Masaki finished speaking, he disappeared again.

Daigo opened his mouth, silently switched the plane to automatic landing mode, and then reached for the Spark Lens.

Suddenly his gaze shifted and he saw the person standing on the ground below.

Not far from the amusement park, Kirino looked at the plane that Daigo was on and asked, "What will you do?"

However, Daigo did not hesitate. He only took a deep look at Kirino before resolutely taking out the Spark Lens.

Whether his identity is exposed, whether he is feared or used by the world, he doesn't really care. Because he is just a human who is lucky enough to obtain Tiga's power, he doesn't have any great expectations. He just wants to use this power well and do what he feels he should do.

So, it doesn't matter anymore.

He pulled the ejection button and transformed into Ultraman Tiga in mid-air.

"The game is over," Kirino said with mixed feelings. He didn't know whether he felt relieved or disappointed.

With a nimble flip in the air, Tiga landed in the direction the fin was moving, and used his hand to firmly hold the fin, trying to stop it.

Georzak charged forward so fast that Tiga couldn't stop it in time and was instead dragged along, leaving two deep marks on the ground.

Tiga stopped its charge, grabbed Georzak's fin, and pulled it out of the ground.

"Do you see yourself as a human being, or as Ultraman?"

Tiga lifted the monster and threw it away without looking at Kirino.

"I am human! I have never been Ultraman Tiga!"

Kirino pursed her lips: "Even if your identity is exposed and you are ostracized by the world?"

He recalled how he was bullied and verbally abused by children his own age.

"I just want to do what I should do as a human being." Daigo didn't answer his question directly, but his attitude was clear.

Kirino suddenly felt a little ridiculous: "Yeah, I'm a human!"

His tone was firm, just as it had been when he climbed out of the mud and spoke firmly to the children who called him a "monster" or a "freak".

Tiga continued his march without stopping, rushing towards Georzak.

As Kirino watched him pinning down Gaiozak, he suddenly remembered his earlier conversation with Hongtu.

"Tiga? Are you asking Daigo, or Tiga?"

"Aren't they the same?"

"They're not the same. Daigo is human, and Tiga is Ultraman. How could they be the same?"

""

"What do you want?"

I want light!

""

At that time, he didn't quite understand why Hong Tu wanted to separate Daigo and Tiga, but now he does.

The reason why the human named Daigo became light and was praised by the world was not because he could transform into a hero or a savior, but because he carried the human light that people possess.

For example, courage; for example, the power to overcome despair.

No wonder you were chosen by Tiga.

Tiga transformed into his powerful red form, grabbed Georzak's fin, and forcefully ripped it off, revealing the machine-like interior inside.

"It's actually a mechanical monster?" Horii stared in disbelief at the exposed mechanical parts.

Gaiozak's fins act as signal towers, similar to receivers; once removed, Masaki lost control of them.

Masaki, who had intended to exchange a few more sophisticated lines with Tiga:

The red Tiga condensed the Delasium Light Stream on his chest, which detonated the temporarily quiet Georzak, who had lost control.

Chapter 81 is not over.

After Tiga left, the GUTS team landed near the area where the monster exploded.

They need to investigate the origin of this mechanical monster.

Daigo then transformed into a beam of light and appeared in the amusement park.

Masaki had been waiting there for a while, and when he saw Daigo appear, he tried to come out.

“If I were you, I wouldn’t choose to take action now.” Kirino suddenly blocked his way.

"Move aside," Masaki squinted, and seeing that he was unwilling to move, he gave a disdainful smile. "What, changed your mind?"

Kirino pursed her lips, offering no rebuttal.

"Heh!" Masaki's disdainful smile became even more pronounced. But when he turned his gaze, he saw Hong Tu, who had appeared beside Daigo at some point.

Hong Tu, dressed in all black, gave him a malicious smile. The red light in his eyes was unclear whether it was the light in his own eyes or a reflection of the amusement park lights.

Masaki paused for a moment, then reluctantly gave up and turned to leave.

Kirino turned his head and saw Hongtu giving him an innocent smile. Daigo was already looking over beside him, and Kirino couldn't leave now, so he could only bite the bullet and walk forward.

"My child has caused you trouble." Hong Tu reached out and ruffled Tong Ye's hair vigorously, then smiled apologetically at Daigu.

"He is..." Daigo was somewhat surprised by this development. Heaven knows he had been worried that Kirino also knew Hong Tu's identity and would cause him trouble!

"Let me introduce you to my son, Kirino Makio," Hong Tu introduced to Daigo. "He's a psychic."

Kirino looked at the somewhat bewildered Daigo, paused for a moment, and said to him, "I lost this game."

Daigo was taken aback, but his expression gradually relaxed, and he even showed a warm smile: "Yes, thank you."

Kirino looked away, avoiding his gaze.

Hong Tu watched with satisfaction as the wisps of darkness that had been entwining him gradually transformed into light, completely shedding the darkness that had originated in people's hearts and radiating an even more dazzling brilliance.

"You'd better be careful, that person has their eye on you." Kirino hesitated for a moment before speaking, then fell silent.

After all, he had a cooperative relationship with Masaki, so he couldn't betray too much; he could only remind Daigo.

Daigo nodded without asking any further questions: "Thank you!"

"Your teammates are coming." Hong Tu saw a group of people walking in the distance, patted Daigu on the shoulder, and said, "We'll be going now."

Kirino consciously followed him and left.

"Daigo!" Rena ran to Daigo's side, turned around to look for him, but did not see the two people who had just been standing next to Daigo.
