Having more partners to fight alongside is something that both Haruki and Zeta are looking forward to.

Haruki originally wanted to observe the strangeness of this world with a calm and objective attitude, and to explore the mysteries of the other world between man and nature with a pragmatic mindset. However, he couldn't help but get excited when he heard that there were new companions.

At the armory, the mention of combat partners meant new special mission machines. In keeping with men's natural love for giant mechs, Haruki had special expectations for his combat partners.

"The hero's companions? Are they Ultraman too?" Suppressing his excitement for the moment, Haruki asked a strange but crucial question.

"Well, I can't guarantee that. But there are many monsters that are the same size as the Giant of Light, and there are quite a few humans who can use the power of monsters." Muban's understanding of this world is quite extensive, but he still can't be absolutely certain about things in legends.

"Are there humans who can use monsters? Could there be a Reonicus in this world?" Haruki was a little restless at the thought, but such crazy ideas were just that—thinkings. Even though his mind was wandering far away, Haruki still maintained a composed image in front of everyone.

"I have a way to help you find other heroes, Mr. Haruki. However, this will require some help from you and Mr. Zeta." After completing the restart ceremony, Muban came down from the ruins. Faced with all this unknown knowledge, Muban originally thought that Haruki would need time to understand, but seeing Haruki's uncontrollable excitement, Muban felt that Haruki had already accepted it.

"Please feel free to tell me what you need, Class President. Zeta and I will definitely help you." Full of confidence, Haruki did not back down in the slightest in the face of Muban's request, and his sincere eyes revealed full enthusiasm.

"I need to borrow your Zeta Riser and Medal temporarily to fuse the magical abilities of our world and to obtain information about Ultraman Zeta for marking and searching. Don't worry, it's just a temporary borrowing and won't take too much time."

Muban made the most important things clear and the most questionable points straightforward. "Of course, I will not force you. Everything is based on Mr. Yaohui's wishes. If Mr. Yaohui does not want to explore this world as a hero but as a guest, I will also strongly support him."

"Don't worry, Mr. Haruki, I've confirmed the magic arrays in the ruins. They're all simple and harmless magic. The only unknown is the energy source of the ruins. If you're still worried..." "Then what are we waiting for! Here's the Ascendant. I'm counting on you now, Class President." "Yes! I trust you all!"

A-Jiu was explaining things from the sidelines, clarifying the relevant settings for everyone's safety. However, Haruki and Zeta were both too excited about the upcoming adventure, their minds filled with thoughts of seeing strange and magical creatures, and they had no interest in listening to the complicated magic settings anymore.

Despite their seemingly straightforward and casual actions, neither Haruki nor Zeta had any concerns about them.

The Riser is a combat weapon developed using technology from the Land of Light. Offensively, it can be used in battle; Zeta's mentor, Ultraman Zero, once used it to defeat a space dinosaur. Defensively, it can withstand beam attacks—an essential attribute of technology developed by the Land of Light. Regardless of the type of energy, Zeta is confident that the Riser and the Ultra Medal will be safe.

Haruki and Zeta's complete trust in the class president is evident in their willingness to hand over their work without reservation. Even if there are other motives behind it, Haruki can accept it as long as it's not for violence or evil.

Moreover, Belial Twilight has been keeping a close eye on the class president for the past few days. If something were really wrong, Belial Twilight would surely have come to warn Haruki, but so far nothing has happened.

“Then thank you for your trust, Mr. Haruki.” Muban took the sublimator and the storage box containing the Ultra Medals, walked back to the center of the ruins, and began the magical energy fusion experiment.

Saving time on explanations also saves effort. Indeed, the most sincere trust is more magical than any magic. Muban has learned something from this experience.

To prepare for this ritual, the area around the ruins was slightly adjusted. Broken rocks and soil were cleared to allow for better energy flow, and magic crystals were placed to further enrich the energy. In the central area surrounding the ruins, four crystals were placed separately. All the magical energy from the outside world converged on the ruins, and after being transformed by the aura, it was finally integrated into the Ascender.

The blue crystal surrounding the Ascender gradually became translucent, and the black base also became shiny and bright. Zeta felt a surge of magical energy through the connection with the Ascender, as if his entire body had been cleansed. The energy was powerful yet gentle, perfectly matching Zeta's body as if it were tailor-made for him, without the slightest discomfort.

The aura emitted by the sublimator after absorbing energy was absorbed by the four crystals. The originally lifeless stones now floated up, completing their advancement into Light Magic Stones. They circled each other around the ruins, forming a halo that continued to shine above the magic circle. The materials that had been prepared beforehand condensed at the end of the ritual, their mutual tempering and fusion marking the end of the ceremony.

In an unknown corner of the forest, a mage who had just finished a battle put away the black orb of light in his hand. Seeing the strange light in the distance, his face lit up with immense excitement. The beast he had imprisoned fled in panic, its towering frame appearing disheveled in its hasty escape. Finn raised a hand, creating a black barrier to block out the dust and prevent anything from interfering with his joyful mood.

"Oh, the light stones have appeared! It seems the legend is true! Now it's time for me to take action, hahaha." As soon as Fin saw the light stones flying to various places, he understood the current situation. He put away his previous lazy and bored state, stood up straight, his eyes shining, and headed towards the place where the light stones landed to pursue his desire.

A blinding flash of light appeared, and the spirit stone halo flew out from the celestial cave, the light stones transforming into a tapestry of colors in the sky. In the center of the ruins, the Zeta Riser floated in the air, radiating brilliant light. The Ultra Medal storage box finished charging and was taken by Muban, along with another dazzling object, presumably the result of the refining process.

"The Light Stone has received the power and left. The chosen hero will receive the legendary power. However, to maintain the Light Stone's guiding function, the Ascendant is needed. I apologize for this, Mr. Haruki. To make up for the losses during this period, I have used the power of the ruins to create a transformation device for you. I hope you can accept it."

Muban handed Yaohui a round, lotus-shaped handheld object. It was unexpectedly light in his hand, and it was hard to imagine that it was a product refined from a pile of stone ore. A silver border surrounded it, radiating a flowing light. Blue, red, purple, and gold petals extended outwards, and a Z-shaped mark in the upper middle area gathered energy in the center. The textures in the lower part connected the four directions. Just by holding it lightly in his hand, he could feel the surging life magic emanating from it.

"This feeling is really comfortable, Haruki! The subspace is full of warmth, like being inside a plush ball."

Zeta was the first to express her feelings. Staying in the cold subspace of the Ascendant for too long had made Zeta feel somewhat uncomfortable. However, by connecting to the new transformation device, the subspace where Zeta was located felt like it was being injected with a large amount of warm current. The continuous transmission of life magic also prevented the space from feeling stuffy. Zeta was really happy now.

"Really? I definitely want to go in and see it when I get the chance!" Zeta's joy was expressed through her emotions, which excited Haruki just as much. Even the two of them, who had traveled through the stars of the universe, couldn't help but marvel at the wonder of this magic.

"Transformation shouldn't be a problem. It requires a form change using the power of the medal. Just press the four triggers on it, and the ruins will transfer the power from the medal to the transformation device. Although it's just a temporary solution, I'm satisfied that you like it, Haruki and Zeta."

Muban's explanation clarified for Haruki how to use the transformation device, and Zeta also liked magical items that brought warmth to the subspace. However, although he used it quite smoothly, Haruki still felt something was off; the transformation device seemed to be missing something.

"It's a name. What should we call this transformation device? The original transformation item was called the Zeta Riser. This transformation device was created by crystals, and it's related to heroes..."

"How about we call it 'Brave Crystal,' Haruki?" "Okay, let's do it your way, Zeta. 'Brave Crystal' will be our link in battle from now on!"
