Are you really not behind the scenes?

The pain in his body... was like his body being torn apart, the pain of his flesh and blood being torn apart. Hikigaya almost couldn't help but cry out just by moving.

"Well!!!!"

He gritted his teeth and finally swallowed the sound that was about to leave his throat.

It hurts... it hurts... I have never felt such pain...

Ah...why does it hurt so much?

Hikigaya felt that when he moved his body like this, the sweat in his body broke out.

Only then did he remember that his right shoulder had been penetrated by Northfield...

This is a fit person...will the injuries sustained in battle be fed back to the fit person itself...

Hikigaya raised his left hand tremblingly and carefully touched his right shoulder.

He didn't dare to use force, and he couldn't use force. The body that had been penetrated made it seem like he couldn't even feel the existence of his right shoulder.

Northfield's blow caused him great harm!

Damn it... I need to take a good rest these days...

In fact, the blow Hikigaya received should have meant he had to go to the hospital. After all, five holes were opened in his body, and they were all one finger wide. With such an injury, it is very likely that the entire arm would not be saved if he did not go to the hospital.

But as a capable person, Hikigaya is still somewhat capable.

For example, Stone Wings.

Stone Wings, the vehicle of Nexus' fittest ones, are summoned by the fittest ones and are usually placed in Nexus' dreams... that is, in the ruins of the ancient temple where the fittest ones dreamed.

It is a special-shaped stone coffin with a total length of two meters. Under normal circumstances, it looks like an ordinary stone sculpture. When a qualified person rides on it, it will emit a rainbow-colored light, and then fly and move at a maximum speed of Mach [-].

Of course, in addition to being a means of transportation, there is also a warp within the Stone Wings that protects and heals the fittest.

That's the place where Brother Zhun often stays.

It must be that Stone Wings has a special healing space that can allow Brother Zhun to recover his physical strength and body. Although the effect is not very great, it at least allows Brother Zhun to take a breather from the successive battles.

The reason why Hikigaya didn't have to go to the hospital was thanks to the healing effect of the Stone Wing subspace.Otherwise, he might still be in a coma...

Chapter 56 Hikigaya is a little confused

Lying on the bed, Hikigaya waited for a while before his wounds slowly became less painful.

The heartbreaking feeling subsided slightly, and the intense feeling of suffocation slowly subsided.

He breathed a long sigh of relief, realizing once again that he really couldn't move during this period.

With such a body, if the alien beast appears again, can he transform into Nexus and continue fighting?

He couldn't help but feel worried.

But the next moment this thought came to his mind, he couldn't help but froze for a moment.

Alien beasts...Nosfir...

Right, what about Northfield?

I lost last night... to Northfield, so where is Northfield now?Are the many people on the street being...

What happened next suddenly made Hikigaya no longer dare to think about it. The consequences and the ending made his breathing quicken.

If, if we say... the people on that street are really...

No, absolutely not... He came back alive. Although he was rescued by Bai Mu, Bai Mu could save him once or twice, so he should be able to save others.

It's okay...it's okay...it will be okay!

He endured the pain and relied on the remaining strength of his left arm to find his phone with difficulty, and then... tremblingly opened the news.

He was afraid that the news he saw would appear like his own fears, and that his bad premonition would become a reality.

But fortunately, his fear did not appear...

All is well with the news, and there is still a video on the Internet of him and Nosfield appearing last night and then entering the Meta realm.

And in those videos, people were still proudly expressing Nexus' victory...

"As expected of Nexus, he is awesome."

"How can a mere alien beast be Nexus's opponent?"

"That's Nexus!"

To them, it was as if Nexus had brought the alien beasts into the meta realm, so Nexus' victory was absolute.

Although they did not see Nexus' victory with their own eyes, they had no doubt about Nexus' victory.

because......

That's Nexus!

However, Hikigaya remained silent.

After watching the news and confirming that the scene he was afraid of did not appear, he breathed a sigh of relief.

But seeing the discussions among netizens, his relieved heart became extremely silent again.

People trust him and his strength. Even if they don't see it with their own eyes, they have no doubt about his victory.

Because he is Nexus, because he is the hero who protects mankind, he will never fall.

But...he betrayed the people's trust.

On the battlefield where no one saw, he lost...

He lost to Northfield, lost to the dark alien beast... He didn't win at all!

In fact, just as Shiromaku predicted that Hikigaya's failure would come one day, Hikigaya also knew that he would face failure one day.

Looking at so many Ultraman TV shows, which Ultraman has never been defeated?

The failure of the first generation, the failure of Qiye, the failure of Taro, the failure of Tiga, the failure of Dyna...

Leo often fails on TV.

Except the teacher.

Therefore, defeat is normal.

No matter how powerful a being is, there will be a moment of defeat.

What's more, Hikigaya knows better than anyone that he is just a new Ultraman in the final analysis.

A newbie Ultraman who has no support from his teammates, no guidance from his seniors, and is not even familiar with fighting skills. He can only rely on his own exploration.

His defeat was entirely reasonable.

No one would blame him for this defeat.

Yes, he had already prepared himself for failure.

But......

He thought he could bear the consequences of failure, but when he really failed... he felt extremely scared.

It's not that I'm afraid of my own defeat, but I'm afraid of... what might happen if I lose...

If...if the white curtain didn't rescue him yesterday, if he died there in the battle, if Northfield didn't leave for other reasons, then that street, that city...everyone in it, will become food.

They didn't die for other reasons, they died because of their own defeat... because they were unable to protect them, because they didn't do what Ultraman... didn't do what they should have done.

They died because of themselves!

——It was him who killed those people!

Hikigaya always thought this way when watching TV anime.

No matter how you make changes, one thing cannot be changed.

That means the hero must win.

The enemy is strong, but the hero must win.

Evil is strong, but justice must prevail.

This has been a constant since time immemorial... ever since these tokusatsu anime were filmed.

He didn't understand before, but now...he seems to understand...

Being a hero does not represent power and glory, but life.

It’s those thousands of people, it’s those endless lives.

Heavy... so heavy... so heavy that it seems to be suffocating.

He suddenly felt...a weight that was so heavy that he seemed unable to bear it.

Is this...the weight of being a hero?

Hikigaya gritted his teeth and lay on the bed as if he had lost all strength.

Faced with such a weighty responsibility and such a heavy responsibility, Hikigaya couldn't help but feel confused again.

His defeat means the death of countless people, and his late arrival means the misfortune of countless people.

The part of life that has passed away in Sapporo City, the life that might have passed away if I was defeated...

What happened in the two consecutive days made Hikigaya feel doubtful and confused again.

Is it really right for me to get this power?

The light of Nexus is the light of protection, the light that protects the people and maintains peace, but he... he failed to protect life and maintain peace... he watched the people die and be defeated by evil , what qualifications do you have to hold the light of Nexus?

Why did you choose me... What do you want to say to me... Is it really right for me to become the light... Nexus...

Hikigaya longed for answers, longed for a response.

But...the Evolutionary Trustee did not respond.

He stared blankly at the transformer, and in the end, he could only smile bitterly and weakly lowered his left arm.

That's right... People like me would be grateful to God for the light from Nexus. How could he have any more qualifications to ask for a response from the light?

Don't be ignorant, Hikigaya Hachiman...
