Ultraman: Invincible from Saving Tiga.

Chapter 24 Earth's Grand Stage, Come and Do What You Need

"Are the memories of that world real for you?" Maya asked as she walked.

"More real than anything else."

Lin Yu replied with a smile, "Although that future will not repeat itself, those experiences tell me that if I don't give it my all, the end of the world will still come."

"We cannot ignore the future of our planet."

She stopped and looked at Lin Yu earnestly: "Thank you, Mr. Lin Yu. Without you, none of this would be what it is today."

"Please don't hesitate to offer any help I may provide."

Lin Yu stroked his chin. "How about two more songs? Um, is that a bit presumptuous? I'm not very familiar with Japanese etiquette."

Chrismaya smiled and shook her head: "Like you, I don't understand Earth's etiquette either, but we're friends, aren't we?"

Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a glance. Lin Yu never expected that he would be eliminated so quickly, but surprisingly, he felt no fear or panic whatsoever. Instead, he felt a sense of relief.

And Maya actually self-destructed as well?
"Was my acting really that bad? I was once an Earthling too, just in a different time and space." Lin Yu smiled wryly.

"I knew it the first time we met; she was dazzling, with an undeniable presence."

As she spoke, memories flooded back like a tide. The girl raised her face and looked up at the starry night sky, a look of confusion appearing in her eyes.

Like a homeless child, not knowing where the road leads or where tomorrow will be.

Suddenly, Lin Yu's appearance was like a dazzling shooting star streaking across her field of vision, allowing her to see a completely different landscape.

Although it was only a short day, it was enough to leave a deep impression on her.

Because he really does glow!

"Are you homesick too?" Lin Yu walked to her side, sat down casually, and gazed at the starry sky.

"Fifteen years have passed. Perhaps I've been abandoned here?" A tear streaked across Maya's beautiful face. After recalling her memories of the post-apocalyptic wasteland from the future, she missed home even more. Dying alone on an alien planet would be too lonely.
Lin Yu remained silent for a long time, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

He knew, of course, the cruel ending of the TV series—Maya's brother would find her, but would ultimately die at the hands of the Natanians, and would tell Maya an even crueler truth: their entire family had perished, and their planet had been destroyed.

How could he possibly utter such a cruel truth?
"What are you thinking about?" Maya noticed Lin Yu's silence and asked softly.

Lin Yu took a deep breath, his eyes hardening: "I'm thinking, we have to look forward. Since your family left you here, they certainly won't give up on you easily."

He turned to Maya, his voice encouraging: "Only by striving to survive can we wait for the day they come to take you away. Isn't that right?"

Maya stared blankly at Lin Yu, tears glistening in her eyes. She had never shared these deep thoughts with anyone before, and she never expected that Lin Yu could understand her feelings so well.

“Thank you, Mr. Lin Yu,” Maya said softly. “I’ve never told anyone else about this before.”

Lin Yu scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed: "This is the first time my identity has been exposed. I didn't expect it to happen here."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the awkward atmosphere in the night was dissolved by their sincere conversation.

“By the way, would you like to come to my place?” Maya suddenly suggested. “I can sing you a song as a way of thanking a friend.”

“I own several houses, none of them are far away,” Maya replied.

She blinked: "Where did you live before?"

Lin Yu paused for a moment, then recalled his experiences over the past few days and laughed, "Sleeping under a small blanket under the overpass, telling everyone I meet, 'That's right, that's right.'"

"Pfft!"

Maya couldn't help but laugh. "Your answer is really unexpected."

Lin Yu was somewhat worried: "Won't this affect your reputation? After all, you're a famous singer, bringing a strange man home."

Maya smiled and shook her head: "At least I can rest assured, right? After all, you're so powerful, if a monster appears, I should be the safest one, right?"

Lin Yu was speechless.

Afraid of danger?
The woman before me is Maya, the leader of humanity's last refuge, who bravely led people to survival in the post-apocalyptic wasteland. If she's afraid of her, I'm sure I'd be trembling with fear.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you." Lin Yu nodded in agreement.

The two walked along the quiet street for more than ten minutes and arrived at a high-end apartment building.

“This is it.” Maya took out her keys and opened the door.

Lin Yu followed him into the apartment and found that the interior was simply and warmly decorated, but it seemed a bit deserted.

"It feels a bit empty," Lin Yu said, looking around.

Maya explained somewhat helplessly, "Because I also practice singing at home at night, I was afraid of disturbing the neighbors, so I bought several apartments nearby."

Six hundred and sixty-six? Is that something a human would say?

"I don't understand the world of the rich," Lin Yu sighed.

Maya asked Lin Yu to sit on the sofa, while she walked to the piano and gently touched the keys.

"What song do you want to hear?"

"I'll listen to whatever you sing." Lin Yu leaned back on the sofa. "Anything is fine."

Beautiful piano music filled the air, and Maya's clear voice flowed gently through the room.

The familiar melody reminded Lin Yu of the nights in the underground shelter, but the current environment was much warmer.

Unbeknownst to him, Lin Yu fell into a deep sleep in this tranquility.

Maya looked at the sleeping Lin Yu, gently covered him with a blanket, and walked to the window, gazing at the city night view outside, a complex expression on her face.

What will this world look like in the future?
The next morning, Lin Yu was awakened by the warm sunlight.

He stretched and felt better than ever before, full of energy.

"I really had a good night's sleep." Lin Yu stretched his limbs.

Maya came out of the kitchen carrying breakfast: "Awake? How are you feeling?"

"Great, thank you." Lin Yu took the coffee. "I feel really peaceful today."

He looked out the window, thinking to himself, "Yesterday there was only a dark thunderstorm. Neither the Sphere of Specia appeared, nor did any of the laughing and joking Baltans pop out. Even the Annihilation Bringer didn't open a wormhole to drop down biological weapons."

Lin Yu stroked his chin: "Have they started fighting amongst themselves? It's impossible for everyone to be united in invading Earth, right? Could it be that these ferocious cosmic bumpkins have already shaken hands and formed a great alliance?"

Meanwhile, on the distant surface of Mars.

Two enormous monsters were locked in fierce combat, raising clouds of dust and causing the Martian landscape to tremble.

The monster's exterior features irregular black and white stripes, and its chest has a core that shines with an eerie light. It occasionally releases a subspace shield to defend against its opponents' attacks.

On the other side was a completely ferocious creature, exuding a chaotic aura, with a cluster of glowing particles flying above it.

The two monsters were locked in a stalemate, neither able to completely defeat the other.

If Lin Yu were there, he would probably immediately recognize that this was a battle between the Sphia Sphere and the Chaos Virus.

They might even say something like, "This is a huge stage on Earth, so come and do whatever you want."

Is Earth some kind of breeding ground for monsters? How come another powerful figure has appeared?

　I've built up a backlog of chapters, and from now on I'll update during the day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon.

　　These accumulated drafts will be used for a burst of updates when the book is published. If I update one draft a day, I can update about 20 chapters when the book is published.

　　I have no limits! (Zero face.jpg)
