Ultra: Heroes Don't Ask Where They Come From

"Are you human or alien?"

The man frowned and spoke.

"Can't you see? That's what I want to ask, how long have you been here?"

"...Your disguise is very good. I can't tell who you are."

It was more than just extremely clever. For a moment the man thought he had seen it wrong. How could the other person look like an alien? He didn't feel the reaction that should have come from someone who had evolved to that level. However, he couldn't ignore the strangeness when he blinked.

"I am from the star Cru. As you can see, I am just a person living peacefully on Earth. How did you come to such a small island?"

"The Earth has been attracting a lot of attention lately, hasn't it? I think it's no surprise that many aliens are interested in it."

The weather was good and the islanders were living a healthy life. It was naturally impossible for the "two" aliens to fight in broad daylight. Moreover, gigantism was not a skill that every alien could master. After a conversation, the two exchanged useful information.

This Cruzan wearing a black Panama hat is a writer on Earth where he has lived for decades. He was a scientist on his previous planet. With his contempt for Earth through technology, he specializes in science fiction.

Its hard science deductions and settings unfold an ingenious worldview and magnificent and lifelike character races, which fascinate countless readers and earn a lot of money from its writing.

His works have been translated into more than a dozen languages ​​so far. Although it has been a long time, some of his works are still classics among science fiction fans. It can be said that he has achieved financial freedom and has no worries about food and drink.

However, because the average lifespan of Earthlings is not long enough in the universe, he changed his identity as a writer many years ago in order to live a harmonious life. He controlled the subsequent payment of copyright fees through his will and as a descendant of a writer, so even if he does not work now, he has no worries about food and clothing.

At present, since Japan's identity management is relatively poor compared to other countries, he initially landed in Japan and has lived in Japan since then. It is said that this island was where he came to relax and write.

As time passed and he got older and stayed in a hotel again, and he also made some adjustments to his disguise, no one realized that the bald traveler was the science fiction writer Yoshiya Henmi who had died many years ago.

Xia Long... As an alien, he has a shitty useful information. He just made up all the stories and fooled people with things like "Friendship Plan" and "Ultra Seven". But because his information was accurate and he guessed the interstellar civilization's views on the earth, Yoshiya Henmi was somewhat less wary of him.

The two of them exchanged some words with each other, but since it was their first meeting, neither side was very familiar with each other, so they said goodbye and agreed to talk in detail next time, after all, life is not easy for aliens on Earth.

After Xia Long returned, he looked through Furuya Chiaki's bookshelf. Unfortunately, he did not find any science fiction books like "The Big Iron Block Flying in the Sky". His brain was stimulated and he remembered the things about Henmi Yoshiya.

He has appeared in the plot of Seven OV. When chatting with Chiaki Furuya, he talked about Yoshiya Henmi and asked him if he knew such a writer.

"Hmm? Ah, I seem to have some impression. I remember that he seemed to come to this island to write a book. At that time, he gave some of his works to the hot spring hotel for free, and it became one of the promotional materials for the island later. But I can't remember the rest. After all, that was more than ten years ago. Has he stopped writing?"

"Then do you remember the work "The Big Iron Block Flying in the Sky"? The author is him?"

"No, no impression at all."

In the plot, it seems that this Kru alien somehow managed to slip the technology of making a robot and a spaceship into this work, and later other aliens found a way to obtain it, causing a commotion.

The robot was quite powerful and at one point beat Seven so hard that he couldn't even stand up straight. But the book was created many years ago after all, and there was no way to buy it on this island. Moreover, even if he bought it, he wouldn't find anything.

So how could such a large-scale and powerful machine design technology be easily stuffed into a book? Readers and editors are not fools, and the secrets hidden in it can obviously only be deciphered by people in the universe.

But if he wanted to decipher the knowledge, the only people he could rely on were the Yabo people, but Xia Long couldn't do that.

Although it was not the Yabo people who invaded Ian and caused the tragedy, and he even stopped the invaders, it was ultimately just dog-eat-dog. As an alien who could leave fragments in the universe after his death and continue to cause pain, he would squeeze the Yabo people like an ageless ox, like squeezing the juice out of a rotten but not rotten apple, with the sweetest and most corrupt power of his.

So he didn't even ask, because they both knew that they were actually enemies.

Xia Long's life on the island gradually stabilized. Many days passed with the Kru people. After this period of communication, the Kru people gradually let go of their suspicions and became more relaxed when communicating with Xia Long.

"What do you think of the Earth today?"

"In the past, aliens came to Earth individually to invade. Perhaps they thought that a primitive civilization could be easily conquered by just a few people. Although this situation has happened in the universe before, aliens used their superior technology and insights to play the role of gods in primitive society. These individuals, who were called primitive civilization enthusiasts, knew that this practice was banned in the universe, but due to the distance, it could not be stopped despite repeated bans."

Cru and Xia Long were sitting on a rock by the sea and chatting. This place was very open and people could be seen everywhere, so there was no need to worry about being overheard. Cru continued;

"But the situation on Earth is different. They have the military force in the interstellar society that can destroy other civilizations, but they did not choose to enter this society peacefully. They think that the universe is a black forest and everyone must raise their guns and kill others as soon as they see them. But that is wrong. The people on Earth are facing the situation of being excluded by the entire interstellar society."

"Indeed, the Earthlings' military strength has reached a decent level, but this still cannot change the backward situation of the Earthlings. Children holding guns are not powerful. They do not understand the power and rules they possess."

"The Earth now is very similar to the past... Yes, to explain it with the history of the Earth, the blacks at that time were very backward, but they had abundant resources, so they were invaded by Europeans. However, in interstellar civilization, the resources of the Earth are nothing. The Earthlings are like the early blacks. They entered the European society at a loss, and did not understand the rules of society. The society was very hurried, and everyone came and went without caring about him - everyone here is already "society" - if he studied hard, people would either hate him, be friendly, or accept him indifferently. However, he was bullied by Europeans, and felt that the strange and scary blacks around him would beat up anyone he saw with his fists. So he was taken to the police station and the mental hospital, and everyone was thinking about how to treat this guy."

Crux pondered and said, "Because of mental illness, the sentence may be reduced, but if they are angered, they will still execute the death penalty without hesitation. You know, black lives did not count in the past."

"Earthlings are at such a dangerous stage. If what they have done is considered incurable, sooner or later a civilization will use cheap means to destroy Earthlings' civilization."
