Ultraman: This Belial only wants to make money.

Episode 30. Flowers by the Roadside

Am I dreaming?

The bizarre scene was reflected in the lens of the well-digger's glasses, leaving him dumbfounded.

After the music ended and a moment of silence followed, the monster raised its head to the sky and let out a mournful roar.

There was a human sorrow in the cold, electronic synthesized voice.

The roar also startled Tiga from his unconscious state. He got up from the ground, staggered, and cautiously readjusted his stance.

Ligadron simply stood there silently.

Following the white line running through his chest, Ultraman saw a white dragon floating in the sky, then his gaze returned to Ms. Jiang Qi on the ground, and then looked at the still Ligadron. He seemed to understand something.

Within the crystal protruding from the monster's head, a blurry figure shifted its gaze from Jiang Qiqianhe, exchanged a glance with Tiga, and then nodded solemnly.

In an instant, the scythe was raised again!

Ligadron's scythe is the sharpest spear, capable of piercing even the hardest buildings like butter, while the armor surrounding his entire body is the strongest shield, unshakable even by Ultraman Tiga's fist.

The scythe broke, and the shards pierced Ligardron's chest. Patches of his silver-white armor were torn open, revealing large blue sparks bursting from the tangled electronic coils inside. Beneath the intricately intertwined lines, like blood vessels, the white core struggled and throbbed.

"Let's do it!"

Tiga nodded emphatically, gathering all his strength. His crimson fist seemed to be wreathed in flames. The moment his fist pierced through Riggardron's body, the sleeping girl suddenly awoke—

"dad!"

----------

"This ending doesn't seem so bad."

Jin Yi stuffed the card from his fingertip into his pocket and straightened his collar.

"Mind link" - a spiritual connection.

The Iluds suffered a brutal execution of justice, losing everything, and their entire civilization vanished like raindrops falling into a pool. Their only legacy was this card at Jin Yi's fingertips.

The Irudians' hive mentality gave this card its effect.

If there is a desire among sentient beings to communicate, then the cards will create a bridge for communication between them, connecting their hearts with a thread.

In layman's terms, it's a psionic telephone; if the energy supply is sufficient, it can bridge any distance, no matter how far.

Belial looked down on this effect, believing it was not as good as the straightforward +10 attack power, but Jin Yi did not think so.

Ligadron was indeed powerful and cunning. It hid Dr. Jiang Qi's consciousness in a black box, shielding it from external perception. Unfortunately, no matter how strong its armor was, it could not stop some soft things.

There is no father in the world who will refuse his daughter; when the white silk thread is strung together, all barriers will melt away.

A father who fights for his daughter will never lose. Human will briefly prevailed over powerful bestiality, and Ligardron's body now belonged to this insignificant human, this incredibly powerful father.

Although we don't know what kind of dream Dr. Jiang Qi wove for his daughter using Ligardron's supercomputing power, it must have been quite beautiful.

Kim Yi looked out through Galatron's surveillance mirror.

The wreckage of the 001 Specia Star Beast, Ligadron, has been taken into outer space and destroyed by Tiga. Daigo, supporting Shinjo, limps away from the crashed Flying Swallow 1.

Hori looked at the crying Eizaki Chizuru, at a loss. The bookworm didn't know how to comfort the girl, so he desperately squeezed out one clumsy joke after another, but he didn't notice the relieved smile under the girl's tears.

In the distance, a wrecked armored vehicle wearily rolled over shallow puddles, while wildflowers with missing petals swayed in the wind by the roadside.

it is finally over.

"I really don't understand why you want to play house with hairless monkeys on Earth."

"Belial is impatient," the voice in my mind said.

"In my opinion, we should go straight to the bottom of the South Pacific Ocean and seize the dark power of that giant conch shell, instead of wasting time here!"

"You're too shallow, Belial. You'll regret it if you look down on humans."

"What can these hairless monkeys do?"

Beria scoffed.

"Oh? I seem to be one of those hairless monkeys you were talking about?!"

Jin Yi teased, and Belial rolled his eyes.

"If all humans were like you, the Land of Light would be in for a world of trouble!"

"Oh, can I take that as a compliment?"

Jin Yi straightened his sleeves, and the cockpit of Galactron slowly descended. According to the agreement with humanity, it was time for him to appear.

The fighting at the front was extremely intense, and even some civilian personnel were sent to the battlefield. The honor guards who came to welcome them, holding flowers covered in dew, looked exhausted despite being neatly dressed.

But they still greeted Jin Yi, who was slowly walking down the steps, with eager eyes, surprised by the soldier's youth, but their surprise was quickly overshadowed by expressions of gratitude and respect.

The defense team fought for 66 hours, and Tiga worked hard, but without Galactron's final decisive finger strike, it's unknown how much longer the battle would have lasted.

"That look in your eyes..."

Jin Yi looked at the team holding flowers and cheering along the way. With his sharp eyes, he even recognized that the one walking at the front was Shinjo's younger sister, Mayumi. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.

"Belial, when you and Ken defeated Emperor Empera, did the warriors of the Land of Light welcome your triumphant return in the same way?"

"...I don't want to talk about this..."

"Don't be so cold."

Although he seemed uninterested in the scene, Kim Ee-neng could clearly sense that Belial was being disingenuous, so he added a comment.

"With my skills and your abilities, Old Berserker, it wouldn't be difficult to recreate this scene in the Land of Light and return home in glory like a hero. Why did you...?"

"My tolerance has its limits, kid. Don't push your luck!"

A sharp pain suddenly shot through his mind, as if he had returned to that day, when the Alien Empera fled in disarray, and the wounded soldiers on both sides of the road looked at the two heroes with reverence. He and Ken supported each other, and Mary walked ahead...

Belial's eyes glazed over for a moment before returning to their malevolent state. The dark soul that tormented his heart dragged him back into the abyss. He shook off the chains binding him and roared in anger.

"The anger and pain imprisoned for 3 years will never disappear until I see the ashes of the Land of Light! I don't want to hear that a second time!"

Belial unilaterally shut down the telepathic call, and before ending it, he kicked Jin Yi hard. Jin Yi frowned, the sudden pain making him feel uncomfortable.

"What's wrong?"

Nurses are always very observant, and this subtle change in expression was noticed by the meticulous Mayumi, who handed over the flowers and asked with concern.

"No need, thank you."

Jin Yi rubbed his forehead, waved his hand, and looked at the Victory Team, who were slumped on the side of the road.

"Leave the flowers for someone who deserves them more. Besides flowers, you also need plenty of rest."

"Let's postpone the meeting with TPC until the day after tomorrow."

P.S. I was having a nice walk outside when it started raining, and my hair got all messed up, so I had to spend another half hour washing it again, and then I ran out of shampoo...
