Across countless worlds: Yearning to become a giant of light.

Chapter 42 Daigo: So you still want me to become light?

With Horii's brief explanation, everyone gained a general understanding of the mechanical giant's body structure, though it was still somewhat difficult for them to accept.

"OMG……"

Lina raised her hand to cover her mouth.

"...Then, is this giant still alive?"

Xincheng subconsciously swallowed and asked.

Not to mention abnormal life forms and light particle life forms, even with this full-body mechanical modification, it's unknown how much of the 'flesh' part is left.

"I'm not sure about that."

Horii shook his head and answered decisively.

"I initially thought it was a weapon created by humans, but when I checked the data records again on the way back, I discovered that the energy used by this giant has two categories: positive and negative."

Horii pointed the image on the screen at Chaos's color timer and zoomed in on it.

"At first, he used positive energy, but it seemed somewhat weak. The outward manifestation of this was a flashing timer, which was probably consumed during the battle in the Land of Tiga."

"That's it..."

Daigo sighed, looking somewhat dejected.

"And not long after the battle began, the giant's core energy became increasingly active. Theoretically, it shouldn't have been so weak, but..."

Horii presented the detected values ​​in a way similar to a candlestick chart, clearly showing two energy lines, one positive and one negative. As time went on, the positive line began to slowly decline, while the negative line began to emerge and gradually exceeded the negative value calculation!
"The more a Titan fights, the stronger the negative energy within him becomes, and the weaker he appears. This may indicate that a Titan in a normal state uses positive energy."

The scene switches to Chaos attacking the Chaos Beetle Monster, where he tries to fire a light bullet but it turns into a black fireball.

"But as negative energy continues to grow, attacks from positive energy will also turn into negative energy..."

Everyone looked thoughtful upon hearing this.

Of course, only Shinjo felt like his head was about to burn out, so he pretended to be thinking.

"Judging from the giant's extremely anxious yet restrained demeanor, being completely dominated by negative energy could lead to something extremely dangerous..."

"Something dangerous."

Upon hearing this, Megumi Kijima felt a sudden pang of unease.

Three dark figures inexplicably appeared in my mind.

"Yes, so at this stage there are two possibilities regarding the identity of the Titans."

"First, this giant is a strategic weapon created by some entity or force in imitation of the ancient giant. Their actions today are all aimed at gaining the trust of humanity, and then launching a devastating attack on us at a critical moment."

"Secondly, this giant is actually a giant from the ancient civilization, but his body was mechanically modified by a crazy scientist who was willing to risk his life."

"Not only were two energy systems with completely opposite properties, positive and negative, installed, but also abnormal life forms (alien beasts) and light particle life forms (Chaos virus) were introduced..."

The screen then displays the active reaction of high concentrations of abnormal life forms (alien beasts) and light particle life forms (Chaos virus) detected within Chaos's body.

One follows positive energy, the other follows negative energy, as if they might fight each other inside the giant's body at any moment!
Sphia: What about me?
"That would be too cruel..."

Lina really didn't want to think about what would happen to the giant in the second possibility.

"..."

Daigo remained silent, clenching his fists.

The other people didn't look too good either.

It's possible that the giants' actions in protecting humanity led them to unconsciously empathize with the second scenario.

Moreover, human experimentation, even forced human modification...

Anyone who knew about this would be outraged.

Munakata: "In that case, it can explain why the Titan was not injured when it used the same beam of light the first time, but was injured the second time."

"What about the giant that revived in the Land of Tiga? What's the situation with that giant?"

Although he was the one in question, Daigo was completely clueless about his transformation into Tiga.

"I don't know about that... After all, the giant that was revived only appeared once."

Horii helplessly slumped his hand.

Without actual data, he couldn't just make wild guesses. Besides, neither the silver giant from two years ago nor the mechanical giant of today are the same style as the giant resurrected in the pyramid.

We can't just blindly apply the same logic just because they are giants.

"Hmm... I'll take Horii's guess into consideration."

After a long pause of thought, Megumi Kijima brought up the topic.

"I will relay this discussion to the director as it stands. Thank you all for your comments."

"In a few days, the higher-ups will announce the emergence of a new Titan to the public. Currently, both TPC and the GUTS team will remain neutral regarding the existence of the Titan. Then, there's... well, the question of what the Titan should be called."

Lina: "Yes! Putting aside the Silver Giant from two years ago, the Mechanical Giant and the Resurrected Giant definitely need a name to distinguish them."

How about calling it "Giant Mountain Super Powerhouse"?

Zong Fang immediately became interested.

"Giant Mountain Super Powerhouse sounds clumsy."

Horii disagreed.

"Then how about we call him... Tiga, Ultraman Tiga? After all, he's a giant who was revived in the Land of Tiga."

Daigo quickly made the suggestion.

Shinjo: "The resurrected giant is called Tiga... so what should we call the mechanical giant?"

"Let's call him Chaos, because he possesses both positive and negative power, just like chaos."

"It feels good." "I think it's good too."

Since he didn't know Chen Lin's name, Daigo didn't feel comfortable making suggestions at this point, so he let the mechanical giant's name be decided.

However, coincidentally, Chen Lin's pseudonym is indeed: Chaos.

…………

That night, unable to sleep, Daigo left his room and went to the quiet room where the time capsules were stored.

"Time capsule..."

At this moment, Daigo thought of the mysterious woman he had seen in his dream who looked exactly like 'Yuzare', but had short white hair.

buzzing...

At that moment, the time capsule seemed to sense Daigo's presence, and the projection device turned on again, projecting the figure of a woman in black robes.

"I am the commander of the Earth Guard..."

However, before she could finish reciting her lines as usual, Daigo interrupted her.

"You've deceived us! The real prophecy wasn't about giants destroying human civilization, was it?"

Upon hearing this, the projected sound abruptly stopped, and then the woman gave Daigo a strange smile.

"As expected, you're not an ordinary artificial intelligence. Who are you?! Why are you tampering with the information in this time capsule?!"

The woman didn't answer.

But with a flash of black light, her figure was replaced by another white-haired woman who looked somewhat similar to Megumi Kijima.

Daigo: Why is it white hair again?

However, the prophecy the woman spoke next was different from the previous ones. Although she was still the leader of the Earth Guard Corps, 'Yuzare,' the roles of monsters and giants were reversed in her words. The giants were the guardians of mankind.

"So what is the method to revive the giants...?"

Daigo asked eagerly.

"The way to revive the giants is..."

"Let Daigo become light."

Dagu:……

No, so whether it's before or after the alteration, the goal is to turn me into light?!
This chapter is the second update to make up for yesterday's.
