Do you like humans that much, Chihaya Aine?

　But as time went on, Ms. Sushi's amazing wisdom began to stir again, and she felt that she could not go on like this.

　I don’t want to become an unwanted marginal person or something like that!

　Once the amazing wisdom came into play, Ms. Su Shi began to act. Metron had an expression of anticipation for the show, wondering if Su Shi was going to do something interesting again.

　"Metron, you're the manager of the M78 band now, right?"

　"Yeah, what's the problem?"

　"Please, take me to Tsuburaya Office."

　Ms. Su Shi is relentless in her pursuit, and this time she plans to go straight to Tsuburaya Office to take a look.

　If a guy like Metron can find a job at Tsuburaya Productions, and that pink-haired woman with a flat figure can also sign a contract with the agency, there is no reason why I can't, right?

　Nagasaki Motoyo looked at her chest. Although it was not easy to mention such things, her figure was still quite good, completely surpassing that stinky pink-haired Chihaya Aine.

　She won this time. Sooner or later, Xiaoxiang will change his mind. This is what Ms. Su Shi's amazing wisdom told her.

　Volume 1: 61. Monster Worship

　"You mean, you want to join our firm?"

　"Yes, it would be even better if I could form a band with Xiaoxiang."

　"Ms. Nagasaki Suyo, do you think you have the potential to become an idol artist?"

　Mefilas showed an interested smile on his face. Sometimes he had to admit that Earthlings were interesting.

　Nagasaki Motoyo, who took the initiative to come to the door, was a little nervous when facing the personal interview of the president of Tsuburaya Office. But when she thought that Chihaya Aine, that stinky pink-haired girl, could do it, why couldn't she?

　"I think I do."

　"Oh? Then please tell me, what do you think makes you suitable to be an idol?"

　"Does having a good figure count?"

　"puff..."

　Mefilas couldn't help laughing. He felt that Ms. Nagasaki Motoyo seemed to have more talent as a comedian rather than an idol artist.

　However, this made Mefilas think of signing her to the agency. On the one hand, the Metron alien was staying at Nagasaki Motoyo's house. Ms. Motoyo knew about the existence of aliens and was a good partner.

　On the other hand, isn't this interesting? It's also very interesting to give that Toyokawa Shoko a bit of strength in various ways.

　So Mephilas made a quick decision, an amused smile on his face.

　"My firm is just beginning, and we're in need of talented people."

　"Since Ms. Nagasaki Motoyo wants to try to become an idol artist, our agency has no reason to refuse."

　"But on the other hand, our agency can't officially sign you yet. So, you can just join the agency as an idol trainee and intern. Is that okay?"

　"no problem!"

　Nagasaki Motoyo agreed immediately. She was a wealthy woman and had no shortage of money. It didn't matter whether she would get paid or not after joining the idol agency. What was important was that she could see Xiaoxiang again. That would be all good.

　"That's it, then. Welcome Ms. Suyo to Tsuburaya Office."

　Mefilas showed a very happy smile, and Nagasaki Suyo didn't know why the other party was smiling when he saw her.

　.....

　"Chihaya Aine, resurrected with full health!"

　At Hanegaoka Academy, Aine, who hadn't been to school for several days, finally returned today from her stint of not attending school.

　"Aine-chan, you're here at school so soon. Are you okay?"

　The Traffic Light Trio who care about Chihaya Aine on a daily basis, they even came to visit her several times when she was in the hospital. If Aine had not formed a band, perhaps her relationship with these three would have been closer.

　"I'm completely fine now. I've been recuperating for several days."

　"You've recovered after just a few days of rest. Your physical condition is amazing, Aine."

　Marveling at Chihaya Aine's athletic prowess, the traffic light trio, who share everything, began their daily chat to share information.

　During the days when Aine was not in school, it was up to the three of them to tell Chihaya Aine what happened.

　"The monster that breathed fire and released poison,

　You know, Aine, right? "

　"Of course I know. That's why I was admitted to the ICU."

　Speaking of the Volcano Bird Barton, it was the first time that Chihaya Aine encountered such a tricky monster. No wonder Mephilas said that the Volcano Bird Barton had killed two Ultramen.

　Although it is not the same individual monster, this monster race is too ferocious. It is actually a monster born on Earth. The Earth is really a place with outstanding people and beautiful scenery, even the monsters are so scary.

　"Don't be afraid of what I'm about to say, Aine."

　"You tell me, I won't be afraid."

　Aine is the human form of Ultraman. She is not afraid of even monsters and aliens. What else could she be afraid of?

　"A cult has recently emerged. They claim that monsters are messengers from outer space, and that only more advanced outer space beings can eliminate human tyranny and allow human civilization to develop and continue."

　"Eh eh eh?!"

　Chihaya Aine was shocked. She had never heard of such news during the past few days at home, and she had not seen any similar messages or videos on her mobile phone.

　"Really? I've never heard of that."

　"What's so strange about this? There are so many cults in Japan, and the emergence of a cult that worships monsters and aliens is actually more practical than those weird cults before."

　The Traffic Light Trio were very well-informed, and no one knew where they had heard this gossip from. Aine was a little concerned, so she asked a few more questions, and was soon alerted by the Traffic Light Trio.

　"Aine, aren't you interested in this strange cult? You must not go astray."

　"No, I'm not. I want to find out everything and see if I can call the police to shut down the cult. Monsters are very dangerous, and we can't let people have this wrong perception."

　“Indeed… Aine, you were just badly hurt by a monster, so you must be holding some grudge.”

　The Traffic Light Trio didn't doubt Aine's words, but they didn't reveal too much information to her either.

　"Being involved with a cult is extremely dangerous. Let the adults handle this matter. Aine, if you do this, be careful of the cult's retaliation."

　"All right..."

　Chihaya Aine thought about it and decided that even if she was not afraid of revenge, she still had to think about her family and discuss it with Mefilas later.

　Soon it was lunchtime in Haneda, and Chihaya Aine told Mephilas about the cult, but as an alien, Mephilas was not interested at all.

　"It's just the stupid behavior of Earthlings. It's common on any Earth. Don't worry about it."

　"Eh? Is it really possible..."

　"Ultraman won't interfere with human behavior, and there's no way you can make those stupid guys wake up and stop doing stupid things."

　"Or rather, the reason why those Earthlings believe in monsters and that aliens can save them."

　"It all comes from this society, from the exploitation and persecution of fellow Earthlings. You can't change it."

　The topic suddenly became philosophical and profound. After hearing what Mefilas said, Chihaya Aine seemed to understand it all at once.

　Why are there so many cults in Japan in the past and now? Is the fundamental reason that they are helpless in the face of desperate reality and choose to pin their hopes on illusory things?

　It is no wonder that another phenomenon is happening now: the trend of worshipping monsters.

　Even though the volcanic bird Barton caused so many casualties, humans were not afraid or terrified of the monster. Instead, they began to worship this ferocious and violent behemoth.

　How many people who are unhappy with their lives sincerely hope that monsters can destroy everything in this unfair reality?

　Volume 1: 62. Monster Friends Club

　As an alien, Mephilas is not interested in the stupid behavior of the earthlings, because in his opinion, most of the earthlings are very stupid.

　But Chihaya Aine was a little worried. She thought about so many things that had happened recently and felt that this matter might not be that simple.

　"Mefilas, could it be that aliens are secretly manipulating the Earthlings, intending to use this method to disintegrate the power of human society so that they can rule and enslave the Earthlings more easily?"

　"It's a good idea. It's rare for you to think so deeply, Miss Aine. But unfortunately, this is a wrong answer. Even I wouldn't do it this way."

　"Huh? Why?!"

　Aine was puzzled. Doesn't this fit the image of aliens invading the earthlings? They use peaceful evolution to make humans relax their vigilance, and finally achieve their goal of invading the earth and ruling over humans without bloodshed?

　"Because Ultraman exists in this universe, the last alien who wanted to invade Earth under the slogan of peaceful coexistence with humans was called Baltan."

　"Alien Baltan, what a familiar name... Wait, isn't this the design for Hailing's costume?"

　"Yes, it's the Space Ninja Baltan."

　“So, our band’s performance costumes are real.

　Monsters and aliens?! "

　Chihaya Aine was shocked. What did this guy Mephilas do? If there really were aliens and monsters like this coming to Earth, it would be hard to explain.

　"This matter is irrelevant. Let's get back to the Baltan issue."

　"Two billion thirty million Baltans, they were all wiped out by Ultraman."

　"Two billion and thirty million...that's impossible, right?"

　Chihaya Aine didn't quite believe what Mefilas said. Could Ultraman possibly destroy so many Baltans? Even when she transformed into Ultraman, she would have to fight a red light every time she fought a monster. She was exhausted.

　"That's a fact. The Baltans are aliens who use mass cloning to expand their population. If one person lives, millions of others live. There's no difference between one Baltan and 2.03 billion."

　"But it is also true that the Baltan spaceship and the 2.03 billion Baltans aboard were completely annihilated by Ultraman."

　"Ultraman will not reject aliens who truly want to coexist peacefully with humans, but...if aliens deceive Earthlings under the guise of peace, they will attempt to occupy Earth and enslave humans."

　"If this matter is known to the Ultramen of the Land of Light, the consequences can be compared to those of Baltan."

　After hearing Mefilas' explanation, Chihaya Aine sincerely thanked Ultraman. It was great that Ultraman existed in this world, but this brought up a small question for Aine.

　"But since we have Ultraman protecting the Earth, why would aliens invade the Earth?"

　"Because there are too many Earths, the Ultramen of the Land of Light can't protect them all. You should also know about parallel universes. The volcanic bird Batton is a monster from another Earth."

　"In most cases, Ultramen will only serve as civilization observers, quietly observing and protecting the development of various civilizations in the universe."

　"However, if a special situation occurs, that is, if aliens want to fully invade the earth and enslave humanity, the Ultramen will not sit idly by."

　After this explanation, Chihaya Aine basically had no doubts anymore. The trend of worshipping aliens and monsters on Earth was unlikely to be the work of aliens.

　As a protector, Ultraman cannot interfere with human behavior. This matter can only be resolved by the people on Earth themselves.

　I just hope that this unexplained craze won't involve the people around me.

　.....

　After school in Haneda in the afternoon, Takamatsu Deng was stopped by Chihaya Aine.

　"Deng, do you want to go to RING with me?"

　"Aine, are you okay?"

　"It's okay, I can run and jump, no problem."

　"OK then."

　Deng was very happy to see Aine recover, and the two of them teamed up to go to RING.

　When the two of them just arrived at the door of RIGN store, they saw Lixi cursing and tearing off the flyers posted outside the store window.

　"You uncultured bastard, putting up flyers everywhere, if I catch you you'll be in big trouble!"

　"What's wrong, Lixi?"

　Aine and Deng walked over and asked about the situation with concern, and then they saw the flyer in Lixi's hand.

　"What is this, "Strange Friends Club"?"

　"I don't know where this group of people who like monsters came out of, but they set up this organization recently. It's like a cult, and they're posting flyers everywhere."

　"Like monsters? Monster Friends Club!"

　After hearing what Riki explained, Takamatsu Deng's eyes suddenly lit up, and Aine and Riki spoke at the same time to stop her.

　"Deng, don't be fooled by those strange guys."

　"This kind of organization is obviously not a good one. It must be full of bad people. Deng, you must not be interested in such things."

　"Yeah...I know."

　Hearing Takamatsu Deng's absent-minded answer, Aine and Riki looked at each other and realized that it was over.
