A supporting character in a romance anime? I became a god using a rat talisman.

A bald managing director slammed his hand on the table, making the teacups rattle loudly.

"We're just a tokusatsu company! A toy seller! Where are we supposed to get a real monster that can breathe fire?! What business is it of ours?!"

The public relations manager's voice was trembling.

"But...but public opinion outside is out of control. There are even legal teams that are rallying the victims and preparing to file a class-action lawsuit against us."

Tell them, it's impossible! Not even a single penny!

The president had a dark expression on his face, his hands crossed and resting on the table.

He knew very well that if he took the blame, the company could declare bankruptcy the very next day.

"Listen, let's get our stories straight."

"Absolutely no bowing down, no apologizing, and absolutely no compensation! Not even a single penny!"

"As long as we open a door to compensation at this moment, even if it's just one yen, it's equivalent to legally acknowledging this causal relationship! The subsequent tens of thousands of dollars in damage to houses and compensation for emotional distress will definitely bankrupt the company before sunrise tomorrow, leaving them with nothing but their underwear."

"Release an official statement and shift all responsibility to unknown natural phenomena! To aliens! If all else fails, to parallel universes! In short, we will absolutely not take the blame!"

Tsuburaya Productions' statement was released ten minutes later.

The statement was filled with phrases such as "pure coincidence," "unaware," and "reserving to pursue legal action against those spreading rumors."

However, this statement did not quell the anger; instead, it was like pouring gasoline on a fire.

That night, the entire Japanese online ecosystem completely degenerated into a chaotic battleground of conspiracy theories and rampant demonic activity.

Someone posted that they were a former employee of Tsuburaya Productions and had personally seen monster breeding tanks in an underground parking garage.

Although the post was riddled with typos, it still garnered over 100,000 reposts.

The entire online ecosystem in Japan has been completely transformed into a giant circus of chaos and depravity.

Seeing the situation was turning against them, the Japanese government took emergency measures to try to control public opinion.

The major domestic platforms have been very cooperative, deleting posts that should be deleted, banning accounts that should be banned, and demoting topics that should be demoted.

However, what's extremely embarrassing is that no matter how tough the government's methods of deleting posts are, it can only wield its power within its own small territory.

Twitter's servers are located in the United States, so the Japanese government's executive order has no effect on it.

As a result, all the content that was deleted from domestic platforms went to Twitter.

A plethora of high-definition photos from the scene, monster videos shot from various angles, and wildly imaginative theories about the "truth of the apocalypse" have proliferated on Twitter like an unquenchable digital wildfire.

"The official deletion of posts so quickly must mean they're feeling guilty! Tsuburaya Productions definitely has covert government funding; they've unearthed ancient civilization ruins at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean!"

"The monsters are real! Ultraman is absolutely real too! The government has concealed the existence of the Giant of Light; they want to keep the secret of evolution to themselves!"

"Maybe our prime minister is an alien in disguise! Everyone hurry and buy salt, the monster is afraid of salt!"

Chapter 160 A Ghostly Being Arrives in the Giants' Circle

In stark contrast to the devastation in Shenshui City, the depths of the R'lyeh Ruins were exceptionally tranquil.

Inside the sealed space, Hitler was reporting to Camilla the devastating news that the Zoga Legion had been completely annihilated.

"Boss, things are bad."

"Zoga is completely wiped out?"

"Yes, not a single one was left."

"Oh? How did he do that?"

Camilla seemed to have heard some interesting news.

Dharam replied in a muffled voice, his rugged face full of frustration.

"That kid hid ten thousand meters in the air, using light beams to attack us; we couldn't even touch him. By the time the light beams came down, Zoga and the others had all turned to smoke before they could even scream."

"Tsk."

Hitler added through gritted teeth, "That guy was too cunning! He wiped out all our monsters without even showing his face."

Camilla added with great interest, "As expected of my man."

The tone sounded more like boasting than complaining.

Hitler and Darram exchanged a glance, both seeing the same confusion in each other's eyes.

Is the boss praising that traitor?

However, both of them wisely refrained from asking further questions; they couldn't possibly fathom the thoughts of their boss.

With Camilla's thought, a huge light screen appeared out of thin air, playing a video recording.

That scene happened in the center of Shenshui City a dozen minutes ago.

"Interesting, I really didn't expect you to have so many surprises in store for me, Qianyu."

"Not only can you wield the power of light, but now you can even summon dark creations of this caliber at will? In thirty million years, just how far have you grown?"

Upon hearing this, Dharam, who was standing to the side, tensed up completely.

As a tank-type fighter, his combat instincts are sharper than anyone else's, and at this moment, those instincts are frantically sending alarms to his brain.

This is an instinctive fear from the depths of the soul, the oppressive power of an evil god. Even if viewed through a barrier of light, it is enough to suffocate any living being.

"Boss! What if that kid really possesses combat power at the level of an evil god?"

"Even the three of us combined can't do anything to him. We need to come up with a plan quickly!"

"That's right, that's right."

Hitler was nodding frantically beside him.

Although he was the weakest of the Dark Trio in terms of combat strength, he still had a basic understanding of the difference in combat power.

What level is Gatanjee?

The ultimate evil god.

An ultimate dark entity that nearly destroyed civilization 30 million years ago.

If it helps Qianyu, then what's the point of playing this game?

Just lie down and wait to die.

However, Camilla merely chuckled in response to the panic of her two subordinates.

"You two...you haven't improved at all. Thirty million years have passed, and you're still so easily frightened by appearances."

"Appearances?" Dharam was stunned.

"That's right, watch carefully." Camilla raised her hand, and the screen switched to another recording.

That was the effect of when Chiba turned Asagiri Aya into Jetton.

The boy handed the card to a trembling girl next to him, then kicked her into the void.

The next second, a Zetton appeared on the streets of Shenshui City.

"This is..." Hitler's eyes widened.

This is the new toy he made yesterday. Doesn't it look scary?

Camilla swiped the screen again, and the image switched to another video.

That Zetton was fighting with several human thugs.

In the video, Jaden's movements are as clumsy as a baby who has just learned to walk. If it weren't for a voice remotely controlling it, this cosmic dinosaur would probably have been beaten down by three street thugs.

"..."

Hitler remained silent.

Darram also fell silent.

After a long while, Dharam finally managed to utter a sentence.

"Is this some kind of monster? How can it be bullied like this by humans?"

"Did you see that clearly?"

Camilla explained casually.

Strictly speaking, this monster is just a fake.

Hitler's mind began to race.

"So that Gatanothor was also her in disguise?"

"Of course." Camilla nodded. "It's still a fake. Although the evil god's power is off the charts, it's actually just a paper tiger to scare people. Its true power is probably less than one ten-thousandth of the original."

Hitler and Darram breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

So this is what happened after all.

The Gatanothor that terrified them was actually just a fake god in disguise, a spineless coward who couldn't even beat a street thug.

"That scared the hell out of me... I thought that kid could actually summon an evil god."

"If he really had that ability, would he need to hide ten thousand meters in the air and launch a sneak attack?" Hitler's tone carried a hint of disdain. "Wouldn't it be easier to just let the evil god wipe us out?"

Camilla said calmly, "His every move, even his shady schemes, is now completely exposed to my scrutiny."

"I saw through him a long time ago. He didn't want to get involved himself; he wanted to stay behind the scenes and be the mastermind. Those monsters were all just tools he used to shield himself from the bullets."

"But the problem is..."

Hitler quickly recovered from the joy of the crisis being averted and raised an extremely thorny practical problem.

"Even if the opponent is a slacker, that kid's fighting style is too sneaky! When fighting Zoga in the city center, he didn't even show his face, relying entirely on his subordinates to fight. Later, when he lured our underlings back and wiped them all out, he just hid tens of thousands of meters in the air, unleashed a big attack from afar, and then ran away."

Hitler paced irritably down the steps.

"So what should we do?"

"Boss, now that Zoga is all wiped out, we're completely out of options. And that kid's so cunning, he absolutely refuses to come to the island. Are we just going to sit here in this crappy place forever?"

Hitler also looked worried.

"If he's determined to stay out there, there's nothing we can do about it. The seal has loosened, but it's not enough to allow us freedom of movement."
