Another month passed in the blink of an eye.
The temperature is gradually rising and it has reached the hottest time of the year.
Since the last mantis monster, no new unconfirmed life form has appeared in nearly a month.
Tokyo citizens are gradually relieved, and rumors are even circulating that unconfirmed life forms have disappeared.
Only a few people knew that the Gurangji were preparing for more drastic actions.
…
Hozaya Elementary School in Tochigi Prefecture.
Since the last meeting with Godai, Kanzaki Shoji has regained himself and continues to work hard on his work here, which can also be said to be his mission.
As he said, children still have little expectations for the future. But doesn’t it take someone to change all this?
Although it is difficult, he still wants to be a guide who leads children into the future, and at the same time he is just an ordinary teacher.
July is the time for summer vacation. Near the end of the semester, Kanzaki gave the children an assignment, a composition titled "Future".
And now, he is carefully reviewing the children's homework.
But when he saw a paper named Kirishima Taku, Kanzaki's eyes slowly became heavy.
This essay was very exciting, and seemed to be more full of expectations for the future than other children, but Kanzaki saw the deep emptiness buried under the seemingly prosperous words.
What worries him even more is that at the end of the volume, the sentences that were obviously written with great effort but were erased, still left conspicuous marks on the white paper even if he tried to erase them again.
"...But really, I don't know anything! There is no place for me..."
Kanzaki was worried and fell into deep thought.
"Jingle Bell--"
The preparation bell rings.
Next is his class, which is also his last class for this semester.
Kanzaki organized the homework, adjusted his appearance, and walked away with the holiday safety manual issued by the school.
The students all sat upright.
Kanzaki handed out the manual and focused on talking to everyone about the safety precautions during the holiday.
Although those unconfirmed life forms have not appeared for a long time, there have been victims in Saitama and Ibaraki that were close before, so he repeatedly told his classmates that it was nothing important and it was best not to go to Tokyo.
After all the vacation precautions were finished, Kanzaki Shoji said gently with a smile on his face: "Then that's it, get out of class is over!"
"stand up!"
"Salute, goodbye, teacher——"
After the students saluted, they began to pack their schoolbags and prepare to go home. The holiday can be considered a joyful thing. Most of the children walked out of the classroom happily and said goodbye to Teacher Kanzaki.
Shoji Kanzaki also stood on the podium and smiled at every child.
He does this every holiday. It is his custom to be the last person to leave the classroom, and this year will be no exception.
However, when everyone was preparing to go home happily, a boy in black clothes stayed quietly in his seat, lowering his head with a worried expression, and his name was Kirishima Taku.
When everyone in the classroom was almost gone, he hesitantly walked towards the podium with a procedural smile on his face.
Kirishima Taku raised his head and asked the teacher: "Teacher, unconfirmed life forms will not appear again, because those incidents have not happened for a month."
Kanzaki thought carefully and replied: "How should I put it? This situation has happened before... Although it is best to hope that they will not appear again, there is no guarantee now."
"That's right..." Kirishima's head dropped again.
"Is there a problem?"
Kirishima Taku just turned around and returned to his seat, "Nothing, goodbye."
"Wait a minute Kirishima." Kanzaki Shoji stopped him, came to him and bent down to ask: "Is there anything else you want to write about the article you wrote today? Because there is something you seem to want to write but don't. give up."
Kirishima smiled politely, and said in a nonchalant manner while packing his schoolbag: "It's not an important thing, so I won't write it down. Teacher, you are also very busy, right? Goodbye."
After saying that, he picked up his schoolbag and left.
"Okay, be careful."
Kanzaki watched him leave, but the smile on his face gradually disappeared and was replaced by worry.
Kirishima's smiling face was all too familiar to him. It was the most common expression used by seemingly well-behaved children to hide themselves.
That is by no means an unimportant matter. What happened to this child...
…
Somewhere in the unknown city, there was a little light in the dark space, reflecting on the cold and terrifying faces of the Gurungji.
A beautiful rose girl wearing a white gauze.
A man wearing a straight military uniform and full of majesty.
A girl wearing long black cheongsam.
A girl in black stockings with an unconventional afro.
Black suit and gentleman's hat, he looks like a man with a Western gangster look.
Sitting astride the motorcycle, Gulang Kibada, the locust, was as flamboyant as ever.
A strong wind suddenly blew up in the space, blowing Rose Girl's dress and hair and swaying in the wind.
Then a strange owl landed next to everyone.
The strange owl slowly stood up, his appearance changed into a man wearing sunglasses, and he walked towards the crowd with his arms folded.
"Bu Ge, you're here." The Locust Monster raised his hand to signal him.
"Keeping everyone waiting." The owl monster said calmly and came to the Rose Girl.
"I only want 9 people to kill in 23 minutes."
"Within 23 minutes?" Rose Girl confirmed to him.
"It won't time out."
Rose Girl nodded and raised the ring in her hand to set the game time, but this time, there were two rings instead of one.
Because the Ge Group is becoming more and more powerful, it also requires the power of two rings to set the time limit.
The scarf-hooded man picked up the abacus counter in his hand, and a new game was about to start.
…
Northwestern suburbs of Tokyo. 10:23 am.
Today, in this deserted place, two figures appeared, one red and one white, crisscrossing each other.
Ryusuke, who was in Kuuga's newly sublimated form, punched Godai, who only fought in his full power form.
He forcefully caught the heavy punch, and the force of the impact made Godai take several steps back, with bursts of burning pain in his palms.
"Fudai, try to mobilize the power of sublimation in your belt!"
Ryusuke said, and attacked with another punch.
Godai nimbly avoided from the side, his belt flashed with golden electricity, but there was always a feeling of powerlessness and no real release.
"Put the power of sublimation throughout your body and strengthen your body again."
"Scare!" Ryusuke turned around and attacked Godai with a whip kick, causing him to retreat again.
"Ryujie-san..."
Godai stopped talking, hesitated again and again, and then rushed towards Ryusuke with his head down. Swinging his arms, he used his forward momentum to swing his fist towards Ryusuke's face.
"Boom!" A burst of powerful momentum suddenly erupted from Ryusuke's body, and a chill like a thorn on his back instantly enveloped Godai, causing his movements to stagnate slightly.
But at this moment, Ryusuke bent down and punched. While avoiding Godai's attack, he hit Godai in the abdomen with a punch.
"Uh-huh!"
The burst of energy knocked the fifth generation flying several meters and fell to the ground. As the red light bloomed, the fifth generation took off his biological armor and returned to his human form, clutching his abdomen in pain.
"Fudaime." Ryusuke couldn't bear to let go of his fist, and finally he had no choice but to cancel the transformation.
He came and sat down next to Godai, and asked a little guiltily: "Are you okay? Godai."
Godai Yusuke just smiled nonchalantly: "I'm fine, it's just a minor injury. It's just Ryusuke-san, you seem to have become a lot stricter recently?!"
"I just...just want you to become the Sublimated Almighty as soon as possible."
Ryusuke sighed in his heart. In fact, he didn't know if it was right to force Godai like this. But it's better than doing nothing. Mastering power faster can at least give you more choices in the future.
"I know Ryujiesang is thinking about me, and I will always work hard."
Godai smiled and took out a belt buckle from his pocket, "A little gift for you."
Ryusuke took it casually, saw the Kuuga logo on it, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Is it handmade? You really like Kuuga!"
"Yeah, I think it's great for someone who can protect everyone!" Godai gave a thumbs up.
It's really great. It's not an exaggeration to say that such a person is a hero!
Ryusuke looked at the outline of the city in the distance.
However, being a hero has to pay a price, a broken body or a shattered life?
The hero protects others, who will protect the hero?
This kind of thing... Ryusuke suddenly stood up.
I don't want to think about this kind of thing! If you don’t know, just do it. It’s better to try and change than to sit still and wait for death!
"Godai, that's enough training for today, let's go back." Ryusuke Higashino said calmly, turned and walked towards his motorcycle.
"Oh, okay." Godai, who was following behind, responded cheerfully.
