In an instant, all the shadows nearby began to flow like liquid.
Only his own shadow remained unresponsive.
They flow and accumulate.
Manipulated by common sense, a giant made of shadows stands on the earth.
And this giant's image, constructed through a quirky and often darkly humorous lens, has become a childhood idol for many—
Ultraman
Moreover, it was Ultraman Tiga, who was the most popular character back then.
The giant knelt on the ground, bowing to his master.
"Then go. Once I get there, I'll kill that giant whale."
The giant received the order, nodded, and his entire body disintegrated into wisps of shadowy mist, which then darted toward the venerable Megalo.
Watching the giant depart, Chang Yan activated his ability once more, and a shadow transformed into a massive airship.
And its appearance is just like the Vimana that Gilgamesh rode in Fate/stay night.
Since the task is for me to demonstrate my power, my entrance must be high-end, imposing, and classy.
After tentatively stepping on it and confirming that the shadow construct could bear its own weight, Chang Yan sat directly on the throne.
As the airship flew, Chang Yan felt the wind constantly blowing towards him and squinted his eyes.
(By the way, should I hold a wine glass full of red wine in my hand? Would that make me look more sophisticated?)
(Emmm...thinking about it carefully, I think I'll pass. After all, bosses who act all high and mighty like that don't usually end up well.)
Chapter Seventy-One: Here I bear witness to my power! (Part Two)
(It even made it onto the male readers' recommendation list! Thank you so much for your support, editors and readers!)
"Wow, Minister, why is this whale flying in the sky? And why is it wearing a suit? Did it travel all the way to a blind date? Ouch, that hurts."
Hyoudou Issei looked at the giant Megalo and, in an attempt to ease the tension, deliberately said some nonsensical things, which resulted in him being punched by the cat.
"Senior, please stop joking around at a time like this."
"I just wanted to lighten the mood."
Ignoring Issei Hyoudou's words, Rias stared intently at the giant Megalo flying in the sky.
What worried her wasn't the Megalo's strength, but rather that after they killed it, its massive corpse would fall and destroy the city.
As Rias was pondering, she suddenly raised her head and looked at the sky behind her.
She felt it; a tremendous power was emanating from there.
That power was filled with shadows and darkness.
Then, a voice came over.
"It's been a long time, Rias Gremory and your family."
"Ah, it's been a long time, Mr. Changyan."
"Hey, Chang Yan, what brings you here? Wow, what's that you're sitting on? It looks so cool!"
Hyoudou Issei saw the shadowy ark beneath the common saying and immediately began shouting.
"So, Mr. Changyan, now that you've come here, does that mean you can solve this giant Megalo?"
Looking at Chang Yan's smiling face, Rias narrowed her eyes.
Since Chang Yan came here in such a flamboyant manner, he must be here to show off his strength, that is, to flex his muscles.
"You actually guessed it. No wonder you're the next head of Gremory. You're really something."
"Not at all, Mr. Chang, you are truly amazing. Well then, please keep up the good work."
The two exchanged compliments, and then both wore broad smiles.
"Then, please witness my power."
"In the name of God—go, my servant! Devour that Megalo completely!"
A chilling feeling washed over them as countless shadowy wisps of mist whistled past them.
Countless shadows intertwined, twisted, and merged.
A colossal, shadowy giant stands on the earth.
"Hey, wow, that's huge! But this design, isn't that Ultraman Tiga?! You really have a really twisted sense of humor."
Looking at the Shadow Giant's appearance, Hyoudou Issei couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.
Faced with Hyoudou Issei's sarcastic remarks, Chang Yan simply smiled and remained silent.
The shadow giant gazed at the colossal Megalo in the sky, then struck a pose familiar to many.
It bends its hands, then stretches its arms forward and crosses them, then slowly spreads its arms to the left and right.
As the arm extended, more shadows swept in from all sides, gathering on the giant's arm.
The shadows seemed to boil, tearing and eroding the surrounding twilight sunlight.
Even from a great distance, Rias and the others could feel how awe-inspiring that powerful yet ominous force was.
Just as the shadows gathered into an enormous number, the giant positioned his arms in an L-shape.
Zaperion Shadow Ray!!!
boom----------
The shadows swallowed everything.
Even the sun's rays paled in comparison, becoming shrouded in shadow.
The giant Megalo didn't even have time to scream before it was completely swallowed by the shadows, leaving not even a trace.
A black line was drawn across the sky.
Like a brand of a wound, it was deeply engraved on it.
Such power shocked everyone around.
Countless people gazed at the scar branded in the sky, trembling at the power it represented.
How powerful.
After unleashing its ultimate attack, the giant knelt down on one knee in Chang Yan's direction without pausing.
"My lord, mission accomplished."
At the same time, the system's voice also came out.
(Task completed)
(Exceeded target, bonus summon attempts x2)
twice?!
Chang Yan's heart was suddenly filled with turmoil.
(They actually gave me two summoning opportunities right away? I really didn't expect the system to be so generous.)
“Very good, I am very satisfied. Well then, Miss Rias, I will take my leave with my servants for now, after all, I haven’t had dinner yet. I’ll leave the cleanup to you.”
"Well then, goodbye, farewell."
He left behind a profound and enigmatic smile. Chang Yan then boarded the Shadow Ark and flew away, while the Shadow Giant transformed into wisps of shadow mist, dissipating with the wind.
A group of silent people were left behind, looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Yicheng, do you really understand this friend of yours?"
The silence was broken by Rias.
Her tone was very heavy.
"..."
Hyoudou Issei did not reply, still staring blankly in the direction where the Titan had originally been.
"Ichisei?"
"Oh, Minister, you called me?"
Hyoudou Issei seemed to be startled awake by Rias calling his name.
"Sigh, Issei, you really are..."
With a sigh, Rias reluctantly repeated the question she had just asked.
"Well... I've known him since we were kids, but... I really don't know why he... sigh."
As he continued, Hyoudou Issei sighed helplessly.
"Forget it, everyone has their own secrets, right? Let's go, someone will take care of the cleanup. Mr. Changyan is right, it's time for dinner now."
"Oh..."
Before leaving, Hyoudou Issei looked back one last time, recalling the scene that had suddenly appeared in his mind.
The scene was fleeting, but what it showed was quite bizarre.
It was at night on the school playground, and two people were facing off.
He knew both of them.
One of them was a male classmate who was lying dead on the ground when I woke up on the school playground this morning. I think his name was Yue Shui Xia Xin.
Another one is the common saying.
Then a golden beam of light descended from the sky and entered Yue Shuixiaxin's body, followed by a jet-black beam of light that entered Chang Yan's body.
Then, the screen disappeared.
Although he was puzzled, Hyoudou Issei didn't say anything about it, but buried it deep in his heart.
In the end what happened?
With this in mind, Hyoudou Issei followed in Rias's footsteps.
And in that indescribable place, God laughed.
What does God need?
It's interesting, it's fun.
Therefore, he did not erase all the memories of those key figures.
Instead, some small fragments were left behind.
To make myself happy, I'm even willing to betray "myself".
Chapter Seventy-Two: Shadow Ball
Chang Yan was sitting on Vimana when he passed through a small alley and jumped off.
The Shadow Ark also transformed into a cloud of shadowy mist, merging into the shadows on the ground.
"Ha, this ultimate move is so energy-consuming, I can barely hold on."
Chang Yan sat on the chair made of shadow, panting heavily as he tried to regulate his breathing and state of mind.
The reason why the Zepelion Shadow Ray is so powerful and can be charged up so quickly is because it requires a lot of energy to manipulate the shadows and gather them on the giant's body.
It's worth the effort to complete the task, especially since we exceeded expectations this time.
Chang Yan really didn't expect that this move, "Zepelion Shadow Ray!", almost went out of control while charging up and couldn't be stopped at all.
In order not to expose his weakness, Chang Yan directly let the giant unleash the attack.
