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

This ring is bound to him and will never leave his ten-meter range. Where did he get these absurd romance dramas from?

It took a long time to calm the Dark Ring down before Hong Tu could finally lie down on the bed in peace.

He needs to digest this power properly. Once he has digested it, his power will undergo a qualitative change.

Because he needed to digest his power, Hong Tu kept a low profile and didn't cause any trouble during this time. Even when a strange alien species came, Hong Tu only sent Golza to help Tiga beat up the alien.

Of course, Golza was later beaten up by Tiga for his provocation. So, don't get arrogant when facing the Light faction.

It wasn't until Halloween was just around the corner that Hong Tu fully digested this energy and made it his own.

"Halloween?" Kirino took a sip of coffee, looked at Hongtu who was looking at him expectantly, and coldly refused, "I have no interest in celebrating such a childish holiday."

"Hey, didn't we celebrate this together before?" Hong Tu muttered to herself, digging up the dark history of this aloof superhuman. "I remember you used to take me trick-or-treating. You clearly loved this holiday before."

Hong Tu kept muttering to herself, which made the veins on Tong Ye's forehead throb.

"Enough! Instead of wasting this time, you should go and cause trouble for that otherworldly being." Kirino slammed his cup down on the table. "At least you could save some kids who love holidays!"

After saying that, he got up and left.

Hong Tu watched the other person's furious back with a smile.

Why didn't you say that earlier?

It's rare for him to seem so concerned; it turns out it's because of his child.

Extradimensional beings? That sounds familiar.

Hong Tu thought for a while before she remembered.

It seems the Kirieloids said that one of the oldest beings on Earth was the otherworldly witch Kiranbo.

"I remember it was something like feeding on children's dreams."

He changed into a black cloak, put on a skull mask, and held a large scythe in his hand.

Hong Tu, dressed in a tacky Grim Reaper outfit, went out happily.

"Why didn't I notice how lively it was tonight?" As she walked into the bustling street, Hong Tu realized that there were actually many non-humans mixed in with the crowd.

The person was completely unaware of this.

A few years ago, before Tiga's resurrection, the GUTS team didn't have such advanced scanning equipment. When Hong Tu went out, he didn't need to hide his aura at all. Pure darkness enveloped several streets around him. Humans couldn't detect anything unusual, but in the eyes of those non-humans hiding in the shadows, this was blatant territorial marking!

This year, because of Ultraman Tiga and the GUTS team, Red Tea consciously concealed his aura and disguised his true nature to prevent being discovered by the GUTS team or Daigo from seeing through him one day.

Since there were so many non-humans in front of her, Hong Tu didn't hold back and grabbed one of them: "Hey, I'm asking you, do you know where the other-dimensional witch is?"

What was captured was a remnant of a small monster that hid in the shadows and fed on human negative emotions. Its true form had red skin, a rather haphazard appearance, and its height only reached Hong Tu's waist.

"M-m-master," the little demon disguised as a child stammered, trying to give a fawning smile.

"She looks even uglier when she smiles."

Adhering to the principle of non-discrimination, Hong Tu tried to be as lenient as possible: "Don't laugh! Tell me where the other-dimensional witch is?"

"In the city center!" Sensing danger, the little demon quickly revealed the location of the otherworldly witch.

Hong Tu, who used the demon and then discarded it, casually tossed the little demon aside and headed towards the city center, ignoring its hasty escape.

"Wow, that's really bold." When they arrived at the central street and saw the witch handing out candy, Hong Tu's eyes lit up and she spotted the "giant light bulb" mixed in with a group of children. Oh no, it was Daigo from the Victory Team.

"What's going on here? Is the Victory Team on holiday today? Or are you, Daigo, only three years old?"

Are you Ultraman?! Can't you see such a huge monster?! You're actually hanging around with kids, trying to get candy! I haven't even asked for candy yet!

Holy crap, you're asking the monster for candy?!

Seeing Daigo wearing a pumpkin head and asking the otherworldly witch for a lollipop, Hong Tu didn't know how to comment.

Fortunately, Daigo noticed something was wrong in time.

The witch's appearance at this moment was, after all, an illusion; her image was not reflected in the mirror, a fact that Daigo astutely noticed.

"Alright, children, that's enough for today." The witch stopped handing out candy. "Make way."

The witch chased the children away and then pushed the cart away with incredible speed, making it impossible to tell that she was an old woman.

Seeing the witch run away guiltily, Daigo immediately gave chase.

Seeing this, Hong Tu found the sickle in his hand too cumbersome, so he casually threw it away and chased after them.

Chapter 13 Kieranbo's Bitter Heart

"Hahahaha," the witch pushed the cart, moving swiftly and leaving behind a string of eerie laughter.

Daigo, dressed in a silly Halloween costume, followed behind, laughing.

Hong Tu followed not far behind Da Gu, dressed in a black robe and wearing a pale skull mask, "floating" without touching the ground, looking even more terrifying than the witch in front.

The three of them chased each other across half the city and arrived in the suburbs.

The witch disappeared into the tunnel.

"Where did they go?" Daigo followed them into the tunnel, only to find that he had lost them.

As Daigo turned his head, Hong Tu cleverly took flight and landed right on the top of the tunnel.

Hong Tu only landed after Daigo left the tunnel.

"Wait, why am I hiding?" Hong Tu suddenly realized that she was also looking for the witch, not causing trouble for Tiga, so why should she hide?

It seems like I've unconsciously put myself into the role of the villain.

Meanwhile, Daigo has already discovered the Pumpkin House.

Holding the sea pistol, Daigo cautiously entered the pumpkin house and successfully found the first door.

He cautiously opened the door, only to find a white light shining through it, and beyond the white light, there seemed to be something.

As Daigo gripped his gun tightly and prepared to go inside, a hand suddenly landed on his shoulder.

"Who!" Startled by the hand, Daigo quickly turned around, brushed the hand away, and pointed his sea turtle gun steadily at the person behind him.

"Uh, sorry." Hong Tu, dressed in a black robe, had already removed her mask and subconsciously raised her hands.

“You are…” Daigo recognized him.

"Hong Tu." Hong Tu thought the other person was asking who she was, and smiled innocently, "You're from the Victory Team, right?"

Daigo holstered his gun: "Hello, I'm Madoka Daigo from the GUTS team. What are you doing here?"

“I came here after the other-dimensional witch, just like you.” Hong Tu lowered her hand and revealed her purpose.

"The other-dimensional witch?" Daigo pressed. "That witch? You know her?"

"Huh? You didn't know?" Hong Tu feigned surprise. "Then why were you chasing after her?"

"I noticed that I didn't see her reflection in the mirror," Daigo explained naively, revealing the anomaly he had discovered.

“The otherworldly witch Kiranbo,” Hong Tu hadn’t expected the other party to believe her so easily. She could only silently clutch her heart, marveling at how easily the other party trusted others, while selflessly sharing her information, “On Halloween, she dresses up as a witch, uses lollipops to lure children, and then devours their dreams.”

"They actually attacked the children!" Daigo's expression turned grave. He gripped his gun tightly and prepared to rush into the room behind him.

Hong Tu quickly pulled the person back and dissuaded them, saying, "Don't be impulsive. This is someone else's territory. What if you fall into a trap?"

A series of unpleasant and eerie laughs rang out as the witch suddenly appeared out of nowhere, interrupting the two.

Kiranbo was waiting in the dream tomb for Tiga to take the bait, but after waiting and waiting, the light bulb never came in, so he had to come out and take a look.

Upon closer inspection, there was another person.

It's alright, Kiranbo isn't going to back down. At worst, she'll take the pumpkin house and run away to another planet.

Because the large wattage light bulb next to him was bright enough, Hong Tu's already hidden darkness became even less noticeable, and he was thus classified as an ordinary person.

The witch shed her disguise and transformed into a monster as tall as a person.

It pointed its two hands at the two people, and then sent hypnotic waves toward them.

Daigo had just raised his gun, but before he could even fire, he was knocked unconscious by the hypnotic wave.

Daigo lay sprawled on the ground, leaving Hongtu and Kiranbo staring at each other in bewilderment.

"What should I do now? Is it too late for me to pretend to faint?"

"How come this guy isn't dizzy? Even Ultraman Tiga was knocked down, how come this guy is still standing?"

To break the deadlock, Kiranbo pointed both hands at the red tea, increasing the intensity of the hypnotic wave.

Hong Tu remained unmoved, then raised her hand to demonstrate what the Dark Faction's actions were like.

A black energy blast rapidly condensed in his hand, and with a flick of his wrist, the energy blast, far surpassing the size of a hypnotic wave, sent Kiranbo flying.

"You're not human either?" Kiranbo clutched his chest and got up. "I have no grudge against you."

"Harming cubs is the original sin!" Hong Tu righteously fired another energy blast at the other party.

"Don't go too far!" Kiranbo, who had gotten up again, vanished in a flash.

Hong Tu was somewhat surprised. "Wow, it can even teleport. No wonder it's an extradimensional being."

Kilanbo appeared behind Hongtu and launched a sneak attack, but missed. Instead, he leaned forward due to the force of the attack and almost fell to the ground.

“What a coincidence, I also know spatial manipulation techniques.” Hong Tu’s voice sounded behind him.

Startled, Kirambo lunged forward, rolling undignifiedly on the ground as he moved away from Hongtu.

"I understand, I'll leave immediately." Kiranbo no longer dared to be arrogant, waving his hand as if afraid that Hongtu would hit him again. "I will not come to Earth again, and I will release those children as well."

This year has been truly unlucky. I had heard long ago that Tiga had awakened, so I shouldn't have been so optimistic and thought I could have one last feast.

Hongtu was about to make a move.

"Hmm," Daigo struggled to wake up at this moment.

Because of the dark energy that Hong Tu had released earlier, it triggered a reaction of light on Daigo's body, causing him to wake up prematurely.

Daigo covered his head, got up from the ground, looked up and saw Kiranbo with his hands raised not far away, and then turned his head and saw Red Tu behind him holding a gun.

"???" Kiranbo was completely dumbfounded. Holy crap, I just turned my gaze away, and you picked up a gun?

Daigo's gaze toward Kiranbo gradually turned hostile.
