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

Chapter 59 Masaki Keigo’s Jealousy

It's unclear when it started, but Masaki Keigo has been having terrifying nightmares from time to time that are unimaginable to ordinary people.

He saw it in his dream.

The dark ruler of the deep sea is gradually awakening from its slumber.

The world is undergoing strange changes, and enemies from Earth itself and the universe are appearing frequently. Humanity can only turn to the light from Orion for help.

Civilization continued under the protection of the giant who was the embodiment of light.

However, the people protected by the giants seemed to become lazy as a result, offering no resistance to the final test from Earth, and indulging in the pollen of the Zigera flowers blooming all over the world.

The light from Orion does not interfere with human choices; it leaves behind the bodies used in battle and returns to their homeland.

The glorious civilization of antiquity gradually disappeared.

Fortunately, there were also those who refused to perish in their decadent existence. Some chose to use the stone statues to become new giants and continue the struggle, while others chose to board spaceships and search for a new home in the universe.

After the latter left, there was no further news of him.

Although the giants that the former embodied did not have the same light as Orion, they still managed to perpetuate the remnants of the ancient civilization.

However, humans are ultimately humans, not pure light.

As the power of the ruler of darkness began to spread throughout the world, some humans who became giants transformed light into darkness in order to gain even greater power.

Not long after, the war between the Giants of Light and the Dark Giants began.

This protracted war extinguished the last remaining vitality of the ancient civilization, and in the end, almost all of humanity was wiped out except for some members of the Earth Guard Corps.

The remaining giants of light were also unable to contend with the ruler of darkness. Just like the light of Orion before them, they left stone statues for future humans and, together with the last remaining Earth Guard, launched a final assault on the ruler of darkness.

Ultimately, no miracle occurred.

The world was plunged into complete darkness.

Until the [Ruler of Darkness] falls into slumber once more...

"what……!"

Masaki Keigo, who has been awakened by the figure of the [ruler of darkness] in his dreams for countless days and nights, is constantly undergoing mental trials.

"Why...why did I dream about these things?!"

If an ordinary person were in this situation, they would probably go crazy in no time, but Masaki Keigo did not go crazy, or rather, he did not go completely crazy.

Through countless nightmares, he became convinced that he was the most special person, the most unique existence among all mankind!
"Yes! That's right! I have been chosen! I am the savior of this world!"

Coincidentally, he himself is also a genius.

After a long period of research, he discovered that he possessed a special gene that ordinary people did not have. Although current human technology could not analyze it, he was certain that this was the 'key' to becoming a giant!
Just like the ancient humans in my dream...

Therefore, he constantly trained himself.

So that they could be worthy of the giant's power.

Until two years ago, the gears of fate finally began to turn around in my life.

The power of light descended from the heavens and chose you!

While being chosen by the light, he also discovered an ancient ruin located beneath Kumamoto City, which further convinced Masaki Keigo that he was destined to be the 'savior of all mankind'!

However, when he ventured deeper underground to search for the statue, he discovered that the underground had been occupied by grotesque and hideous creatures. The giant's statue was damaged; its lower body had collapsed, and most of its upper body was missing. "You...you actually dared...you are unforgivable!!!"

In extreme anger and despair, the power of light materialized within Masaki Keigo's body, and through the remaining stone statues, he reshaped the giant's body!
[Chaos Evil]
A silver, red-eyed giant stands tall on the earth!
He then instinctively fired beams of light to destroy the surrounding anomalous life forms, causing the center of Kumamoto City to collapse completely, and a large number of anomalous life forms living underground surged to the surface!
At this moment, Masaki Keigo still retained a sliver of reason. Realizing he had messed things up, he immediately flew up to eliminate the abnormal life forms in the city.

However, when he finished eliminating the anomalous life forms and was about to be worshipped by humans, he was met with fearful and wary eyes from the TPC police force soldiers.

Annoyed! Angry!
How dare you look down on humanity's savior like that?!
The arrogant Masaki Keigo has completely placed himself in the position of "savior," believing that the humans beneath his feet should raise their hands and cheer, "The giants' kindness is never-ending!"
However, the reality is quite the opposite.

No matter how he explained that he was a great being who would save humanity, the police commander did not believe him.

Ultimately, anger clouded his judgment...

Then another light rose from the ground. It was the monster statue in the ruins that he had ignored. Not only did it inexplicably come back to life, but it also launched an attack on him.

In that battle, both he and the monster were severely injured.

The power of light was also severely damaged, making it temporarily impossible for him to transform into a giant. Therefore, Masaki Keigo had to find a way to replenish and nurture it, which led to the emergence of Chaos creatures and even monsters.

The erroneous contact during the Kumamoto incident not only led to humanity's hostility towards the existence of giants, but also caused Masaki Keigo to become disillusioned with humanity.

"You ignorant masses simply cannot comprehend my wisdom!"

However, despite his anger, he knew that his resources alone were insufficient to restore the power of light. Therefore, he voluntarily joined TPC as a [Light Particle Life Form Researcher], using the guise of research to restore the power of light.

Just then, a time capsule from an ancient civilization disrupted his rhythm; he could sense that the time capsule had been corrupted by dark forces.

But Masaki Keigo did not make a fuss.

He didn't think the resurrected giant could become his ally.

So they waited for the statues to be destroyed so they could use them to study how to evolve humans into giants, instead of gambling on how many people in the world had the 'key' to becoming giants.

Unfortunately, Tiga was revived.

And there was also a giant that had been artificially modified.

If that were all, it wouldn't be a big deal. Those ignorant people would definitely become hostile towards Tiga and Chaos because of their own affairs, and might even attack them.

but……

they do not.

Feelings of shame and anger almost completely overwhelmed Masaki Keigo's mind.

The subsequent battles outside Tokyo, as well as the incidents involving Gakuma and the Kirieloids, gradually improved the reputation of the Titans.

It made him feel like he was being slapped repeatedly in the face!
And now, even the Dark Giants, who caused the complete destruction of the ancient civilization, have appeared...

Humans, however, would rather believe in Camilla than in themselves!

"Foolish bastards, you'll all regret this!"

"And Tiga, I thought you would be one of my kind... but now it seems you are not worthy of being humanity's savior at all!"

Masaki Keigo clenched his fists, staring intently at the news report about the female giant [Camilla] on the screen.

"But it won't be long... I'll soon show you who the true guardian of Earth is! The true savior!"

Behind Masaki Keigo, in a glass device, was a stone carved into the shape of a spark prism, with colorful light particles floating around it gradually being absorbed into it.
