Anime Crossover: My Part-Time Job as a Giant of Light While Studying Abroad in Chiba

He pointed to the various waveforms constantly changing on the screen: "See that crack in the sky? I'm studying it, or more precisely, I'm measuring its breath."

"Research?" The three of them moved closer in unison.

The man instinctively tried to cover the screen, but after seeing the three people's puzzled and suspicious looks, he suddenly let go with a self-deprecating smile.

"Sigh... whatever, you guys won't understand anyway."

The man stood up and said with a hint of self-deprecation, "My name is Masami Horii. I used to be the chief researcher at the Shinomiya Foundation, but... those office guys were too restrictive. They wouldn't let me touch this or test that, so I quit on my own."

“I found this place, less than a kilometer from the crack, which is a ‘golden observation spot’ that is neither too close nor too far, just right to capture its subspace frequency.”

"Frequency?" Duan Zilian leaned closer, looking at the tangled lines on the screen. "How do you measure this thing?"

"Hmph." Horii seemed quite satisfied with Duan Zilian's actions. He waved his hand, signaling Duan Zilian to move away.

"Since you're so eager to know, I'll be merciful and give you laymen a little科普 (popular science) explanation. Whether you understand it or not is none of my business."

Horii sat down and started typing. The screen immediately switched to a different interface, pointing to a constantly fluctuating number:

"According to my observation, this crack has its 'activity value' and 'life' exists inside it. When the subspace energy resonates with the gravitational field of the real world, the frequency will exhibit an exponential fluctuation. Simply put, it's like a balloon. When its 'pulse frequency' exceeds the critical point, the spatial barrier will completely collapse."

"Then... what happens if the activity level is full?" Duan Zilian asked the question he was most concerned about.

"Is that even a question?" Horii scoffed. "When the activity level is full, something will naturally fall out. It could be a monster, or something else, but it will definitely be a living being. Is there any need to ask?"

Duan Zilian was startled. He looked at the two people beside him, Hong Kai and Wei Lai, who also had solemn expressions on their faces.

"This guy actually deduced the logic of the Heaven's Scar just by using his own calculations..."

"So you're just going to stay here like this? Aren't you afraid that one day a monster will appear and you won't be able to escape?" Future asked from the side.

“Well said! But I was prepared.” Horii smiled and pulled out a device that looked like an old-fashioned radio from under the bar, with a round screen on it.

“I have a special device to detect activity. When the activity is too high, it will be marked in red on this image. When I checked it this morning, it was still a stable green.”

As he spoke, he proudly demonstrated the device to the three people in front of him.

Duan Zilian's gaze fell on the screen, and the muscles in her face suddenly twitched violently.

"Uh... um, uncle." Duan Zilian's voice trembled slightly.

"what happened?"

"The 'stable green' you mentioned... do you mean that kind of red that's about to bleed?"

"what?"

Horii suddenly turned around and looked.

On the circular screen, the green that originally represented stability had disappeared, replaced by an extremely glaring scarlet, which flashed wildly like an alarm light.

The data was skyrocketing, and the device emitted a piercing, screeching load.

"Wow! How can it be so red?! This can't be, it was just..."

—Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!

Suddenly, a piercing roar, loud enough to shatter glass, echoed through the entire street, instantly shattering the already precarious glass door of the burger shop.

"Run! Get out of here quickly!"

With a roar, Hong Kai grabbed Horii, who was still in shock, with one hand and lifted Danzi Rei with the other, and the three of them, along with Mirai, rushed out of the hamburger shop.

Under the sunlight, the "Heavenly Rift" in the sky above Yokohama was filled with wildly flashing lightning, and countless purple bolts of lightning intertwined in the clouds. The originally narrow crack was slowly opening like a giant mouth being stretched open.

Deep within the crevice, a gigantic figure, seemingly formed from piled-up rocks, was being slowly peeled away from the fissure.

In an instant, Yokohama's prosperity was utterly shattered. The originally orderly evacuation turned into a mad, chaotic escape, with people fleeing frantically amidst screams, the sounds like a symphony from hell.

Duan Zilian stared intently at the descending figure, the halo on her left wrist emitting a warm glow.

"Run into the alley! Don't look back!"

Hong Kai pushed aside several shoving people with one hand, and with the other hand he pressed down hard on Duan Zilian's shoulder, protecting him as he retreated to a blind spot partially hidden by ruins, together with Hibino Mirai.

"Brother, my communicator and data detector are malfunctioning! Come and help me!" Horii Masami shouted from the rear, hugging his heavy electronic box, sweating profusely.

"Uncle, how can your pile of junk have any electricity at a time like this?" Duan Zilian couldn't help but turn around and complain while running.

"Hey! Don't underestimate the madmen from the Shinomiya Group!"

Horii slammed his hand on a black knob on the side of the box. With a "hum," a faint blue electric light shone through the gap in the box, and the previously off screen instantly lit up. "This is my homemade 'high-frequency magnetic field resonance battery.' As long as the gap in the sky is still discharging, it can continuously draw energy! I'm a genius, right?"

"You really are a genius-level madman."

Hong Kai responded without turning his head, and then pushed Duan Zilian into an alley.

"Remember, transform in a place without surveillance cameras, and don't leave any trace!" Hong Kai whispered a reminder.

Duan Zilian's lips twitched: "Kaisang, what good is surveillance at a time like this... The electronic equipment in the whole district is about to be destroyed by that thing in the sky."

Hong Kai was taken aback, then scratched his head awkwardly: "It seems so, huh? No, never mind that, hurry up and transform! Otherwise, this place won't be safe!"

After he finished speaking, he didn't linger and ran straight towards Horii behind him.

As they reached the depths of the alley, Duan Zilian took a deep breath. His palms were sweaty, and his wristband was now incredibly hot.

This is the first time.

As a human being, he actively accepted this light.

He looked down; the Spark Prism had been detached from the bracelet. He gripped the Spark Prism tightly, his eyes filled with intense emotions.

"Can I really...do it?" He hesitated for a moment, but was then replaced by a stronger emotion.

"No, I have to do this." Without further hesitation, Duan Zilian raised the Spark Prism high, and with a roar, blinding white light enveloped him in an instant…

Rumble—!!!

The Heavenly Rift completely shattered.

A colossal, dark yellow beast crashed heavily to the ground with a roar.

At this moment, on a slope not far away.

A little boy, about five or six years old, was riding a small bicycle with training wheels. Whether he was separated from the crowd or was terrified, he stood frozen in the middle of the slope.

The giant beast landed less than fifty meters away from the little boy!

The asphalt road crumbled instantly, and tens of tons of gravel mixed with flying car debris rained down on the tiny figure.

The boy's face was filled with fear. He screamed and closed his eyes in despair.

——Zheng! ! !

A pure white beam of light shot into the sky from the center of the street, carrying an aura of supreme authority.

As the smoke cleared, the boy opened his eyes, trembling.

He wasn't hit by the falling rocks; a huge figure blocked his way, the giant raising a circular barrier with both hands, keeping all the destruction outside.

At this moment, the Giant of Light arrives on the battlefield.

Chapter 33...I'll Take You Home

The giant rock beast was shaking its disproportionately small head, its yellowish eyes filled with confusion, anxiety, and a sense of unease.

It kept looking around; the towering skyscrapers felt too cramped for it, and the piercing sirens gave it a severe headache.

Suddenly, it saw the giant in front of it.

Red King's massive body recoiled sharply, and a roar escaped his throat.

It stared intently at Tiga, its two enormous arms unconsciously scratching at the surrounding buildings, as if searching for some kind of security.

……

"Target confirmed! Minato Mirai Ward, Yokohama City! A monster has descended, codenamed 'Skull Behemoth'!"

Three F-15 fighter jets swept through the clouds like falcons, their piercing roars instantly drowning out the monster's growl.

"Sir, the giant has appeared on the scene! Tiga is protecting the civilians!" the pilot reported urgently.

"Okay, got it!"

"Target confirmed! Headquarters orders: prioritize fire coverage on the behemoth; if the giant shows hostility, eliminate it as well!"

"Attention all aircraft, air-to-ground missiles, prepare to fire!"

Several missiles, trailing long plumes of flame, exploded precisely on Red King's back and at his feet.

Flames shot into the sky.

"Roar----!!!"

Red King's terrified eyes were instantly filled with crimson. It frantically pounded its chest, let out a roar, and raised its thick arms with the force of tens of thousands of tons, charging madly towards Tiga in front of it!

Duan Zilian felt the oncoming force of the punch, but a strange feeling suddenly came to her heart.

Why... do I feel like it's scared?

But he had no time to think, the rock behemoth's heavy blow was already upon him, and he could only parry with both hands, forcibly taking the heavy punch.

Bang! Tiga's massive body was knocked back several steps, crushing a section of the roadbed.

Just then, two waves of consciousness exploded directly in Duan Zilian's brain.

[Duan Jun, calm down! That guy's name is Red King!] This is the future.

[It's a notorious, violent behemoth in the universe. Although it doesn't emit any special light, its power is enough to shatter mountains! Its pain receptors are dulled; don't try to trade blows with it!]

[Hey kid, that was a really bad performance!] That's Hong Kai.

Its attacks are completely unpredictable, purely relying on brute force. Don't be intimidated by its size; remember your training! Utilize your core strength!

"Speaking of which, isn't this Red King a bit small? It only seems to be about 40 meters tall." On the ground, Future looked at Red King and couldn't help but think to himself.

Duan Zilian gritted his teeth, desperately resisting Red King's attacks. Every second of the struggle made him feel suffocated.

What terrified him even more was that every time Red King missed his punch, he would blast a nearby building into ruins.

At this rate, Yokohama will be gone before the monster dies!

"Stop causing trouble here... Go calm down in the sea!"

Duan Zilian shouted angrily, and Tiga suddenly withdrew the force of his block, squatting down and hugging Red King's thick waist.

Tiga murmured, channeling all his light energy into his legs, and suddenly pulled!

boom--!

Red King's body was pushed off balance by the brute force. Tiga followed closely, pressing his shoulder firmly against Red King's chest. With a sudden burst of strength, the two giants crashed through the seawall, creating a hundred-meter-high wave, and plunged into Yokohama Bay.

"Now... I don't have to worry so much!" Duan Zilian roared in her mind, panting heavily, "Come on, monster!"

However, King Red became even more irritable upon entering the water.

It churned the seawater wildly, swung its exaggeratedly large arms, and slammed them down towards Ultraman Tiga.

Bang!Bang!Bang!

Tiga was hit by three heavy punches in a row, his body was violently shaken in the seawater, and his body was covered in mud and sand.

Duan Zilian felt a wave of dizziness; the three punches had left his head spinning.

"This monster... it's just like a child throwing punches randomly..."

"Idiot! What kind of mud wrestling are you playing?" Kai's curses rang out again. "If you can't beat them with strength, use your brain! Instead of colliding with a giant like that, switch to your power type!"

"Oh, right... I also have a form!"

Duan Zilian seemed to wake from a dream, and the next second, Tiga suddenly crossed his hands and slashed across the crystal on his forehead.

- Om!

The crystal on Tiga's forehead emitted a red light, and the next second, his body changed from a purple-red color to a fiery red, and his originally slender muscles became thick and strong.

In the distance, from the clouds, the F-15 formation, which was preparing to dive again, cried out in alarm: "Report to headquarters! The giant... the giant has changed color again! Size monitoring shows that energy data is rising! He's turned red!"

"Do not fire, stand by in the air!"

"receive!!"

The moment the form changed, Duan Zilian felt a violent force surge from her heart to her limbs.

Red King trembled slightly, but it roared and charged again, unleashing the same unchanging heavy punch.
