Digital Hackers' Memories

Even the pink mouse next to it, which looks like a tattered rag doll, is much better than the poop beast.

At the very least, the Zhimeng Beast will no longer evoke images of feces or excrement in people's minds upon first glance.

Well, that's the first impression it gives the little girl after getting rid of the disgusting sewer smell emanating from the Zhimeng Beast.

"She doesn't seem to be calling anymore?"

So, they really do acknowledge my 'handsomeness'?

Seeing that the little girl had stopped screaming, Poopmon and Shimon couldn't help but whisper to each other again.

"Then what should we do now?"

"She's human! I've never seen a human before in my entire life!"

Seeing this, the little girl, who finally understood that the Poop Beast and the Shimon Beast were not the "bad guys" she had imagined, tentatively asked a question.

"Who...are you? And where...is this place?"

Although they tried their best to calm themselves down, the undisguised disgust and disdain on the little girl's face still dealt a heavy blow to Poopmon and Shimonmon.

"It seems like we're still disliked? Is it because I'm not 'handsome' enough?"

"If we're talking about looks, I'm definitely more handsome than you, okay!"

Unsurprisingly, the little girl overheard the whispers between the Poop Beast and the Shimon Beast, which made her, who was already spoiled, unconsciously a little angry.

She hated the feeling of being ignored, even if they were just two monsters of unknown origin.

"Hey! I'm asking you a question! Didn't you hear me?"

Chapter Twenty-Seven: Meimei

Mimi Tachikawa is the sole heir to the Tachikawa Group, a Japanese heavy industry company. She is a young lady born with a silver spoon in her mouth.

Like all young ladies, Tachikawa Mimi is willful, spoiled, and hates being ignored.

At home, Mimi Tachikawa is the apple of her parents' eye and a beloved granddaughter in the eyes of her grandparents; they give her almost everything they have.

At school, Mimi Tachikawa was also the center of attention. Whether it was her clothes or her speech, she was a very fashionable and confident girl.

However, this does not mean that Mimi Tachikawa is a spoiled young lady with a bad personality.

The truth is quite the opposite. As the sole heir of the Tachikawa Group, Mimi received an elite education from a young age and is outstanding in every aspect.

Most importantly, despite growing up in a privileged environment, Meimei didn't develop an arrogant personality; instead, she possessed a natural innocence and kindness.

I never assume the worst about others, nor do I deliberately flaunt my family background in front of others...

Most of the time, Meimei is just an ordinary girl next door. If you didn't know, you would never guess that she is the sole heir of the famous Taikagawa Group.

Aside from occasional spoiled and scheming behavior, Meimei seems to lack all the traits one would expect from a rich second-generation.

Perhaps it is precisely because she grew up in such an environment that Meimei, without any of the bad habits that a rich second generation should have, is born with the ability to see things that others cannot.

Just like the pure-hearted children in fairy tales, Meimei felt that she had seen an "elf" who did not belong to this world.

On a summer day in Japan with unusually high temperatures, Mimi saw a "fire spirit" engulfed in flames at a bus stop...

During one of her grandfather's trips to Russia, Meimei saw adorable, round "snow fairies" that looked like snowballs on the ship...

While flying to the United States on her own plane for a family gathering, Meimei saw a "sky sprite" flying at the same level as the plane outside the airport...

Although those "spirits" were just semi-transparent phantoms, and although no one but Meimei could see them, she firmly believed that those "spirits" were real and had wandered over from another world.

This thought persisted until yesterday, until the Tokyo Loop Line accident occurred...

Through social media, Mimi witnessed Agumon's battle and saw the roar and ferocity of the unseen Multi-Eyed Beast.

Needless to say, Agumon was the first time Mimi had ever seen a "spirit" appear in her world in a physical form, and that it was also seen by other ordinary people.

In contrast, the multi-eyed beast, which is made entirely of shadows and invisible to ordinary people, is more in line with Mimi's understanding of "elves".

Although the "elf" looked evil and ugly, it was not seen by ordinary people other than Meimei, so it still belonged to the category of "elf".

Meimei originally thought that the "ugly and fierce elf" was the ugliest "elf" she could see.

But to Mei Mei's utter surprise, just one day later, she saw two "elves" that were even uglier than the multi-eyed beast.

......................................................................................................

"So, Meimei, you inexplicably appeared in the digital world while participating in that 'summer camp' activity?"

After a brief encounter and exchange, although Mimi still disliked the appearance of Poopmon and Shimon, the two sides at least began to have a formal exchange.

"Yes, I was just going to the toilet, so why did I suddenly end up in the middle of nowhere?"

Her words were full of complaints. Mei Mei felt extremely wronged and wondered if the teachers and classmates at the summer camp had noticed that she was missing.

"Don't worry, we will protect you!"

Unlike the dull-witted Poop Beast, Zhimeng Beast clearly sensed Mimi's fear, so it immediately patted its chest and assured her.

"Even if the 'little devil' of this forest comes, we won't let her hurt you!"

Upon hearing this, Meimei first shook her head in disdain, and then said decisively.

"No, I don't need the protection of you two ugly monsters!"

Upon hearing this, both Poopmon and Shimon simultaneously clutched their chests, feigning injury and wailing.

"This time she called us 'ugly monsters'!"

"She just called us 'ghosts'!"

"So, are we ugly monsters or ghosts?" x2

Staring dumbfounded at the coordinated antics of the Poopmon and the Shimonmon, Mimi, who had never experienced anything like this before, was at a loss for how to react.

"you……"

Just as Mimi opened her mouth to say something more, Poopmon and Shimonmon suddenly changed their expressions and shouted loudly almost at the same time.

"Oh no! Crouch down!" x2

Perhaps sensing the impending danger, or perhaps due to the coordinated act between Poopmon and Shimonmon, Mimi successfully developed a slight sense of trust.

Without any hesitation, Meimei obediently squatted down with her head in her hands, and then she felt a gloomy coldness sweep over her head.

"Feces projection!"

"Cheese bomb!"

It wasn't until the Poopmon and the Shimonmon unleashed their ultimate attacks that Mimi heard a strange and terrifying hiss above her.

"Hell's Claw!"

Like a ghost or monster that only appears during Halloween in the West, the fierce beast, shrouded in a white curtain, sprouted two rotting claws that just happened to block the dung and cheese thrown by the dung beast and the cheese beast.

If Meimei hadn't crouched down in time, those two ghostly claws that seemed to have reached out from another dimension would have attacked her.

"Chosen child, die!"

Unlike ordinary wild Digimon, this suddenly appearing Demonmon clearly belongs to a dark force, so its goal is also very clear.

Kill all humans who appear in the Digital World, and eliminate any factor that could potentially influence the rise of darkness.

If Ogremon hadn't mysteriously disappeared, the creature standing here now wouldn't be just a mere Demonmon.

"Run! What are you waiting for?!"

Seeing that Mimi was still squatting on the ground in a daze, Zhimengmon jumped off Dapoomon and, before Mengguimon could react, grabbed Mimi and ran in the opposite direction.

"Poop Beast! You hurry up and catch up too!"

Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Little Devil of Bit Island

Bang!Bang!Bang!

Palmon darted and leaped swiftly through the jungle, listening intently to the sounds of battle coming from afar.

Judging from the scope and scale of the battle, it appears to be a one-sided, overwhelming battle, with the opposing side having no chance to resist and only able to avoid harm by constantly running away.

However, this is not surprising in the Digital World, because Digimon are creatures that evolved according to the law of the jungle and the survival of the fittest, and one-sided hunting and predation are the mainstream.

Conversely, among the many groups of Digimon, battles where the weak defeat the strong or where the forces are evenly matched are relatively rare.

Normally, a Digimon may not encounter such battles more than a few times in its lifetime, and each one will bring them huge damage and aftereffects.

Only after evolving into their ultimate form, possessing advanced intelligence and super self-healing abilities, will Digimon gradually engage in battles that are not about predation or hunting.

In other words, Digimon below the Ultimate level are more like wild beasts than intelligent life forms, and all their behavioral patterns are closer to those of wild beasts.

But the battle that is taking place now is clearly not like that of pure beasts.

Although one side in the battle was constantly running away, they would occasionally stop during the escape, indicating that they were not simply trying to avoid being hunted by their opponents.

From the hunter's perspective, such a painstaking and destructive hunting behavior from the other side doesn't seem like that of a normal predator.

"That's a bit strange. It seems like the other side in the battle is protecting something?"

Sensing that the battle situation seemed more complicated than he had imagined, Palmon couldn't help but show a hesitant expression.

After all, Palmon is just a bit competitive, but he's not a true battle maniac.

"What enemy has the Soundbird Beast discovered?"

The hesitation on his face didn't last long; Palmon ultimately chose to interfere in the ongoing battle.

This was not only due to her own curiosity, but also because she felt a strange calling and sense of familiarity from this battle.

This feeling was somewhat similar to when he first encountered Agumon, but Palmon was certain that it wasn't Agumon.

Because Agumon isn't considered weak by Palmon, it's unlikely that it would become a target for other Digimon to hunt. It's possible that their positions could be reversed.

Furthermore, this is an area where Seedmon frequently operate, and for the safety of its fellow creatures, Palmon must go and verify the identities of both sides in the battle.

"That's definitely the direction; they're consciously moving this way?"

After careful observation and listening, Palmon suddenly realized that the pursued party seemed to be deliberately adjusting its escape route, moving towards itself, or rather, towards Nukadramon.

......................................................................................................

"Where are we running to?"

Clutching her hat tightly, Mimi, who had been closely following Zhimengmon as it fled, asked in a terrified voice while panting heavily.

Behind them, the dung beast kept throwing dung backwards in an attempt to slow down the pursuit of the ferocious beast.

It has to be said that even the Ghost Beast, which possesses the Ghost attribute and can ignore physical attacks to a certain extent, couldn't help but choose to avoid the Poop Beast's attack method, which is "weak in attack power but extremely insulting."

For any Digimon with advanced intelligence, a poop attack is an attack method that should be avoided if possible—unless it inherited the data of a dung beetle.

"Of course we should run towards where we can be saved!"

Having managed to survive to this day through seamless teamwork, the survival skills of Shimonmon and Poopmon are undoubtedly exceptional.

If Poopmon is the "main damage dealer" responsible for providing cover, then Shimonmon is the "auxiliary brain" responsible for thinking.

“This jungle is not unclaimed; the ‘little devil’ is the true owner of this forest.”

During another brief pause, Meimei noticed that the Zhimeng Beast wasn't running around aimlessly; it seemed to be consciously searching for something and using it to determine the direction they were heading.

"Little devil? What's that?"

This is the second time that Mimi has heard this word from Zhimeng Beast. It seems to be a very powerful and ruthless character.

“‘Little Devil’ is a Digimon, a Digimon capable of commanding the Nukadramon army.”

This time, it wasn't Zhimengmon that spoke, but rather the poopmon that had also stopped to catch its breath.

During that brief escape, the dung beast, which was the main attacker, had used up too much energy and was now panting heavily.

"Yes, she is the only exception on the entire Bit Island. She is a Digimon that even beings like Ogremon and Kuwagamon dare not easily provoke."

Following up on what the poopmon had said, Zhimengmon explained in a tone that carried a hint of warning.

"Although she doesn't usually leave the rocky valley, those nuclear dragon beasts often lead the soundbird beasts to sweep through Bit Island."

"Over time, all the Digimon on Bit Island knew that there was a 'little devil' they didn't want to mess with..."

"In the entire Bit Island today, it's already a great honor that 'Little Devil' doesn't cause trouble for others; very few people dare to cause trouble on her turf."

At this point, Zhimengmon paused slightly before continuing.

"That ferocious beast clearly just arrived on Bit Island, which is why it attacked us so recklessly, without fear of being purged by the Nuclear Dragon Beast Legion."

With undisguised disdain in his tone, Zhimengmon hadn't yet mentioned that those Nuclear Dragonmon and Soundbirdmon were hardly the "little devil's" true protectors.
