Drops of water dripping down from the cloudy sky trickled down her cheeks. Her limbs were already numb, and her gaping chest is strangely painless.
But she finally understood what had been done to her. She also understood what was going to happen to her in the future.
She had been waiting for this moment ever since the day she awakened as a mysterious being. Using a metaphor, yes, it’s like a dark and lonely station platform.
A black train with many people on it passed in front of her eyes again and again. She did nothing but wait for her turn.
Every day on the cold platform, she simply waited for the moment that would come. She had no choice but to accept that this was the fault of mysterious being and her own fate. Until that day when a ray of light appeared in the darkness with no tomorrow in sight.
It was a glowing, green train.
She clung to him desperately, trying not to be swept away by that train that split the darkness. Learning what it meant to look forward despite shouldering a tragic fate, and She longed to have his back as he defied his cursed destiny.
But the rail to glory was a path reserved for those with power. Of course, there were no seats for those without a “ticket”.
Fools with unrealistic wishes should be punished. It was nothing but hubris for her, an enemy to others, to think that she would find happiness. If this is her sin and her destiny, she will accept it.
Once she finally made up her mind to give up, large tears spilled from her eyes.
If she fell into the depths of darkness again, if she couldn’t reach the light no matter how hard she try.
「I wish you hadn’t shown me such a warm dream at the end ……」
「It’s a problem if you get off without permission, customer.」
A soft voice echoed out from the darkness. After being thrown off the rails, her body, submerged in the darkness, was lifted up as much as possible.
「The “Death Green” rapid limited express train is not allowed to let anyone off until it reaches the end of the line. If you want to get off now, I won’t let you off. Just wait a minute, and I’ll finish in a minute.」
She didn’t know if it was a dream or an illusion.
The only thing that was definitely warm and real was the feel of a large palm patting her head.
…………
It was only three months ago that the name of the Heinous Mysterious Death Green became popular.
He is known to belong to the secret society Arc Dominion, but his previous background is not known at all. His age and gender are unknown, as he is believed to possess a high transformation ability that allows him to take the form of his defeated enemies.
He has such high combat power that even a bunch of high-end heroes would be no match for him, such as the defeat of Victor Yellow in a head-on battle. The total damage caused by this local disaster so far amounts to about 800 billion yen, and the economic loss is about 2 trillion yen.
Although he is a very mysterious Local Human Disaster, Death Green has only one consistent course of action.
It is the fact that “He will definitely retaliate harshly against anyone who touches his people.”.
「DAMN IT! I can’t hit him with a bullet because he’s too fast! What the hell is going on?」
「Look up, Lamar! It’s raining bombs! Dammit, it’s just like the report, but they forgot to write something so important!」
「No kidding! No matter how many diapers you have, it will never be enough!」
The rain was falling harder and harder, and eventually even thunder began to roar in Tokyo. Sakurada-dori Avenue, the core of Japan’s economy, had already been transformed into an area of ruins, almost like a war zone.
Bullets gouged concrete, bombs smashed windows, and countless incendiary bombs stained the inorganic office blocks with soot.
If they were ordinary heroes, the battle would have been settled long ago. Will and Lamar were able to compete with Death Green because of their long experience in the Middle East and their “unique weapons”.
While withstanding several direct hits from swords thrown as if they were machine guns, Lamar sent a communication to his superior.
「HEY Utako! At this rate, we will be decimated.」
『W- We are still evenly matched, desuwa. Are you sure you are not the ones not taking full advantage of the performance of the newest type of unique weapons!?』
「It won’t penetrate, but it hurts! That son of a bitch has major-league shoulders!」
The name of their unique weapon is the Unbreakable Soldiers’ Armor, or U.S.A.. It is a barrier suit that improved on the absolute barrier of the Strong Mower Shield and deploys along the entire body.
It is a new weapon that specializes in defense, as the name “unbreakable” suggests, by taking the form of clothing to provide tremendous protection without interfering with action.
It was an excellent product of the R&D department that, when operated in conjunction with powerful firearms, could achieve extremely high personal combat power, just like Superman.
「It’s a bit of a shock, but at the end of the day, death green’s attack only ended up as just a dot or a line. With this U.S.A., we wouldn’t be lagging behind in a hand-to-hand combat!」
「The R&D department is totally dependable. But it feels like we are an old lady’s sweater, it sucks!」
「Yeah, but today is the day we become heroes, let’s do it Lamar!」
「That’s right Will! I don’t know if you’re a heinous mysterious being or a perverted MASK, but it’s our job to put the enemies that threaten mankind down on the mat! Let’s get to work for our paycheck!」
Will uses a piece of broken glass as a mirror to see the shadow of his target in the middle of the street.
The two made eye contact with each other and carefully readied their anti-mysterious being shotguns so as not to make a sound. No matter how fast he was moving, it would be difficult to avoid a shotgun attack if he was hit from different directions at the same time.
Once they had sufficiently lured the shadow, the two veteran heroes, dressed in red and green suits, breathed in unison and leapt out of the shadows.
「This is the end! Hasta la vista, baby!!」
The shot caught the shadow in the center and made countless holes in its defenseless body, catching it by surprise. In a cloud of smoke, the shadow collapsed to the ground without a second thought.
「Did we do it!?」
「I’ll go take a look.」
Will slowly walked up to him, shotgun in hand, to finish him off. He approached, firing several shots from medium range, and kicked the green corpse with his boot.
The body, like a beehived rag, was violently turned over.
However, the face that had rolled over had a large middle finger mark painted on it.
「HOLY SHIT! It’s a decoy!」
「Will, above! He is up there!」
The next moment, on either side of the street where Will and Lamar stood, the ground floor of the building exploded in a powerful explosion. In the midst of the earth-shaking impact, a voice reached their ears loud and clear.
「Let’s hear your zako-esque screams of despair, comedian.」
It was like the voice of the dead, with no inflection whatsoever to send a chill down their spine.
Voices were immediately drowned out by a roar, followed by darkness in the sky. The concrete mass, a building that had lost its support, was falling precisely on top of Will and Lamar.
Who could have imagined an attack not by dots or lines, but by a huge “surface” boasting enormous mass?
「Fuu…… So you set this up. Hey Lamar, do you think our U.S.A. can withstand this?」
「Should I try calling the big guys in the R&D department? “Will we be fine even if we are stepped on by a kaiju?”」
「「HAHAHAHAHA……!!」」
A total of 50,000 tons of debris rained down on the heads of the two men.
「Buuuuuuuuurning Heat Gloooooooooves!!!」
To describe it in words, it was a tornado of fire. A vortex of flames shot out horizontally blows Will and Lamar’s bodies together with the falling debris.
The impact was so strong and the firepower so overwhelming that the concrete shattered and the steel frame melted into sludge and became part of the wind.
「「Ooooh my Gooood!!」」
Will and Lamar were hit by a direct hit of energy comparable to a volcanic eruption, and they flew through the air like rags. Their prized U.S.A. shattered into pieces, and they fell almost half-naked onto the grounds of Shiba Park.
Which would have been better, this or being buried alive?
「U…… Ugogo……」
「……Ha- Hallelujah.……」
「Okay, you’re alive! Then good! And I don’t think you guys are cut out to be heroes. You should be comedians!」
When Retto confirmed that they were both still breathing, he slapped their arms. A quick call came from Komorodo Utako to Victor Red’s Victory Transformation Gear.
『Okay! it’s not, wayo! What have you done to my pawns, desuno?』
「I’m sorry, Chief of Staff Komorado. I was trying to save their lives, but the firepower was too strong! But they’re still alive, so it doesn’t matter…… Besides……」
Retto stood up quickly and looks at the top of the half-destroyed building.
He then faced “the man” who was looking down at him.
「We can’t let him kill any more people.」
Retsuto unilaterally cut off the communication and readied his burning heat gloves, which were slowly smoldering with residual fire. As if in response to his fighting spirit, the most fearsome foe of all also takes up a posture of intercepting with swords in both hands.
「Death Green. I’m going to do everything in my power to stop you!」
「Unfortunately, I’m not a pacifist today, so don’t expect me to go easy on you.」
「You are still a man of few words as usual!」
「You are still a man who can’t read the atmosphere as usual.」
The red of justice and the green of evil, their gazes intersected.
On the other hand, it is not the justice that the Hero Headquarters upholds. With eyes that are filled with light and burning with their own righteousness.
Not evil as a mysterious being, on the other hand. With eyes that are stained with darkness and frozen in their own evil.
「The red light that makes your heart roar, Victor Red! If you are consumed by the vortex of resentment, I will cut off the root of your misfortune here and now!」
「The “peace”-loving green light, Death Green. Selfishly and destructively, I will be a martyr. For my peace— go to hell.」
