Do you like humans that much, Chihaya Aine?

　On the other side, another Mefilas alien fled back to its own spaceship after the magnetic monster Antola was killed instantly by Ultraman in the flash slash form.

　"Damn Ultraman! Damn the Earth Defense Force, and the Genmaki family."

　"Do you think I will let you go like this? Just wait, I will let you taste despair and pain."

　The furious Mefilas planned to make a comeback, but unfortunately, as a third-rate villain like him, he was destined to have no chance of making a comeback.

　A sickle blade pierced through the Mefilas alien from behind, killing him silently with one strike.

　"You...you are!"

　Turning around, he saw the figure that attacked him. Before the Mefilas alien could call out the other party's name, its head was instantly chopped off by another sickle.

　The head of the Mefilas alien fell to the ground. The black figure bent down, picked up the Dark Zeta Sublimator on the ground, turned and left.

　Volume 1: 159. Mephilas is actually the villain

　A lot of things happened in one day. A high school girl driving a mechanical monster to fight and protect the earth is ridiculous, right?

　What's even more ridiculous is that this high school girl can transform into Ultraman. Tell me if that's outrageous or not.

　"Let's start a live show! Celebrate the victory of our Earth Defense Force."

　After undergoing rounds of examinations at the hospital and confirming that there was nothing wrong with her body, Chihaya Aine returned to the Earth Defense Force.

　As a result, as soon as Aineto arrived at the base, he heard Genmaki Shin slamming the table and announcing her next plan.

　"I don't think it's the right time to do a live show. I obviously have a lot of things to deal with."

　"Hmm? But after a victory in battle, isn't it common sense to hold a banquet to celebrate?"

　"How can this be common sense? I've already told you not to bring anime settings into reality."

　I am speechless about Misaki Ozawa. Why does her heart always come up with some unexpected tricks that make people feel dizzy?

　"What happened?"

　"Hey! Team Aine, I'm so glad to see you're safe. It must have been tough facing three monsters all by yourself. Well done."

　Captain Genmakishin clapped his hands to congratulate Aine. Although the mechanical U-Indam was badly damaged and was sent back to the factory for repair, Captain Aine was already amazing for fighting two monsters for such a long time and forcing the Gatsu alien to release the third monster.

　"Hehe~ It's no big deal."

　Ain's vanity problem comes back again. Praise her more and she'll be happy!

　"We were discussing the celebrations after the victory. Surely, a live show is the right thing to do at this time, right?"

　"Hey! But aren't there still some important things to deal with?"

　"No problem, just leave these tedious little things to our men in black."

　"..

　.. "

　Aine was speechless. The man in black from the Genmaki family is truly omnipotent.

　"What is Live?"

　"Hey! Ultraman, don't you know? Live is a concert held by a band."

　“I see. I wasn’t sure.”

　The first Ultraman came to Earth during the Showa period, and the earliest live house in Japan was established in 1973. It was not until the 21st century that a large number of live houses appeared across Japan.

　For Ultraman, the old Showa Ultraman, Live is indeed a relatively new thing, and human activities on Earth are also changing with the times.

　"By the way, our band's name is M78. It was Mefilas who came up with this name. Is that okay?"

　"It's okay. We're happy to be remembered by humans in this way."

　Ultraman doesn't care about such trivial matters, but he wants to find out exactly what Mephilas did to Chihaya Aine, so that this evil alien won't play with the hearts of the earthlings again.

　Genmaki Shin is a girl with great initiative. Once she decides on something, the men in black from the Genmaki family will immediately take care of it. So the live show to celebrate the victory of the Earth Defense Force is about to begin.

　During this free time, Aine learned a lot of important information from the Metron people.

　The monsters suppressed and captured by King Aire and Giant Michel, the transparent monster Nelonga and the skeleton monster Red King were transferred to the research and development base of the Genjumaki family. It seems that they are preparing to use these two monsters as materials to create new monster medals.

　Similarly, the body of the magnetic monster Antona, which was cut in half by the Ultra Guillotine, was also recovered by the Genmaki family. The bodies of monsters that were blown into pieces in the downtown area of ​​Tokyo, as well as the bodies of aliens, were also recovered by the Genmaki family.

　As for whether the Japanese government has any objections, the Genmaki family is willing to pay entirely for repairing the city destroyed by monsters and aliens, as well as compensating the citizens who were injured or killed in the accident. The Japanese government doesn't dare to say a word.

　The alien, Pit, who was arrested by the black-clad men of the Genjumaki family, was also escorted to another place for interrogation. The Genjumaki family wanted to extract all the information about the monster merchant from her.

　At first glance, Chad thought that this was what the Earth Defense Force should do. However, the eldest daughter of the Genjumaki family was too naive. She would not care about these unhappy things and just left them all to the black-clad men of the Genjumaki family.

　Just like that, the thrilling and busy day finally came to an end. As the sky gradually darkened, Aine also had to go home.

　The man in black from the Genmaki family would be responsible for driving her safely to her doorstep, but at this moment, Aine's phone rang. It was a message from Mephilas.

　“Aine-san, you’re free now, right? Could you please come to the office?”

　"Got it, I'll be right there."

　Aine immediately replied to the message and informed the black-clad driver of the Genmaki family to take her to the Tsuburaya office. Soon Aine arrived at the office.

　At this time, the employees of Tsuburaya Studio had already left work, and even the security guard who usually patrolled at night was nowhere to be seen. Perhaps Mefilas had asked him to leave work early.

　"Thank you for your hard work today, Miss Aine."

　In the president's office, Mefilas stood with his hands behind his back, looking out the window with an unfathomable look. Aine felt it was very strange, but it would be strange if this evil alien was not strange at all.

　"Nothing. Thanks to your help, I didn't fall into the trap."

　In the battle during the day today, Aine sent King Pondon out of the earth. It was thanks to Mephilas' advance warning that Aine was able to use the Ultra Barrier to isolate all of Hippolytus' tar, thus avoiding the fate of becoming a bronze statue.

　However, the energy consumed by Ultraman when using these skills continuously is also huge. If the Earth Defense Force had not prepared a way to replenish Ultraman's energy, Aine would probably have been defeated.

　"After all, I can't let your human form be defeated and die miserably before Ultraman wakes up, right, Ultraman?"

　"Eh..."

　Aine was shocked. What was this guy Mefilas saying? But no matter how innocent the expression on Aine's face was, it couldn't be hidden from the eyes of this evil alien.

　“I’m always watching over you, Miss Aine.”

　"Do you think you can hide the fact that Ultraman has awakened from me?"

　"Are you still going to play dumb? Ultraman, this isn't your style."

　After being exposed by Mephilas, Ultraman was no longer silent and began to communicate with Mephilas through telepathy.

　"Mefilas, what do you want to do?"

　"Let's continue our game. I said I would come back. What I want to challenge is the hearts of the people on Earth!"

　Volume 1: 160. Ultraman Forever

　"Challenge the hearts of Earthlings?"

　Aine was stunned when she heard this. What was Mefilas trying to do? What did he mean by challenging the hearts of the people on Earth?

　As if sensing Aine's doubt, Ultraman spoke up to question her.

　"Mefilas, what tricks are you planning this time?"

　"I don't have any other intentions. I just want to help the people on Earth."

　"The humans on this Earth have mastered the technology to create Monster Medals, but they still lack the ability to activate and materialize them, so!"

　A Dark Zeta Riser appeared in Mefilas's hand, the same one he had shown to Aine last time.

　"I will give this Dark Zeta Sublimator to the people of Earth, so that they will have the power to control monsters."

　"But I'm curious whether the Earthlings will use this power to protect themselves and the Earth, or whether they will become new invaders."

　"If the humans you love become invaders, will you still protect them, Ultraman?"

　Ultraman fell silent for a moment when faced with the game challenge from Mefilas and did not give a direct answer. After a long while, when Aine could hardly hold back from speaking, Ultraman took the initiative to respond.

　"The Ultraman of the Land of Light will not interfere with people's choices, provided you don't try to use your deceptive tactics to play tricks."

　"I'm very grateful that you've helped Aine so much, so I don't want to become your enemy, Mefilas."

　"Hohoho~ But I came to Earth just to challenge you, Ultraman."

　Mephilas did not accept Ultraman's kindness. His purpose was firm and pure.

　"I won't use despicable means this time. Just like Ultraman, you believe in the kindness and innocence of the people of Earth."

　"I also believe in the stupidity and barbarity of Earthlings. When Earthlings gain power, they will become even more cruel and evil than us aliens."

　"Hahaha! Let's wait and see."

　With the laughter of a villain demon king, Mefilas transformed back into his original form as an alien, and disappeared in front of Chihaya Aine by teleporting.

　"Is this guy Mefilas really bad or just pretending to be bad?"

　Aine couldn't figure out what this evil alien was trying to do, so she could only ask Ultraman.

　"Ultraman, is this okay?"

　"It's okay. It's a good thing for humans to have the power to protect themselves. I believe you will use this power for the right purpose."

　"Yes...really?"

　Aine couldn't guarantee it. Precisely because she was a human, she knew how complicated the nature of Earthlings was. Just like Mefilas said, if humans really discovered a new American continent again, the massacre of the indigenous people would definitely happen again.

　"Whatever. If that Mefilas guy wants to do something bad, just beat him up!"

　Ai Ne, with her fists clenched, was openly venting the suffering she had endured during the hellish training. This was also a tribute to Ultraman.

　A busy and tiring day is finally over!

　.....

　After a good night's rest at home, the new day is the weekend, Saturday and Sunday.

　Chihaya Aine happily announced to everyone who came to the RING store for the gathering.

　"M78 band has resumed activities, let's go to the live!"

　"Eh? Live! But is Toyokawa Shoko okay?"

　"It's okay, since it's Captain Kokoro's live show, the Toyokawa family won't have any objections."

　"That stupid senior does some good things sometimes."

　When Li Xi heard that the Live was organized by Xianjuanxin, he felt relieved. If Xianjuanxin was unhappy and stopped smiling because of this, then the end of the Toyokawa family would be here.

　"Live~Live!"

　Lenai Maomao is very happy. She has been itching to participate in a live show for many days and finally has the chance to do so.

　"I haven't been active for a long time. I don't know if my hands are rusty."

　Hailing complained a little, and was immediately criticized by Lixi.

　"Long time? It's not even a month, isn't that normal?"

　"..."

　Hailing fell silent. When she was a bassist for hire, although the band often disbanded, it was still too easy compared to heavyweight bands like CRYCHIC, which disbanded for a whole year and whose members had not yet moved on from the past.

　"It's nothing. It's a good thing to be able to move around again. Let's practice playing the ensemble together today."

　"Then let's wait for Toyokawa Shoko to come. She's been a little busy lately, isn't she? She hasn't come yet."

　Li Xi was a little dissatisfied. He had always disliked Xiangzi, and now he disliked him even more.

　"There's nothing I can do. After all, Xiaoxiang is the new head of the Fengchuan family."

　Speak nicely to Aiyin appropriately. There shouldn't be too many conflicts and disagreements between band members. Besides, she also wants to complain.

　"That's Deng! She didn't want me anymore after she got Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. I invited her to come to RING, but Deng ran off to the Earth Defense Force instead."

　"Don't say bad things about Deng! Deng must have her reasons for being so early."

　"You're too much of a maintenance light."

　Aine was speechless and complained. Also, regarding the matter of Takamatsu Deng, Aine and Ultraman talked about it last night.

　"Leonix?... I know a Leonix, his name is Raymond."

　"Although Leonicus's power has the risk of running wild and getting out of control, with the help of his companions, he can control it well."

　"I'll help you check the girl named Takamatsu Deng and confirm if she is Leonics."
