Ultra: Heroes Don't Ask Where They Come From

"I'm sorry for asking you to help get the cat down from the tree." Funai Yuu said apologetically.

"It's okay. I haven't helped anyone in a long time."

Xia Long said calmly.

"go home."

......

The Totas and the King Totas are two giant turtle monsters living on an island. They are a couple and live in the sea. During the fixed breeding season, they will also go up to the beach to reproduce and lay eggs like turtles.

There have been very few sightings of such monsters in the past, proving that they live in remote areas and are unwilling to appear in the sight of humans.

However, as human activities became more and more extensive, they finally took them into their sight, and the two turtles became well-known around the world. No matter who they were, this huge monster had great value. In order to make a huge fortune, several Japanese people set their sights on the King and his wife of Totas.

In the end, Queen Totas was captured, and all the eggs she had just laid were taken away. On the way, this group of people, together with the sailors, ate several monster turtle eggs, which brought revenge from King Totas. All those who ate the eggs died one after another. The couple worked together to use their combined skills to repel Taro, and the Set team discussed sending them back.

The Totas king and queen are extremely kind creatures. If compared to an animal, they can be called sharks that are not interested in blood. They basically will not harm humans. However, if they and their offspring are harmed, they will become unpredictably furious.

The Set team discussed how to lead them back to their habitat, and they also made gestures to the monster, which made the monster look at them as if they were fools. However, they were not stopped from touching the monster's eggs.

But when King Totas and his wife returned to the island where they gave birth, along with the egg, the American fleet arrived - the island did not belong to them in territorial waters, but if the monster existed it would interfere with military exercises, so for this reason all the American ships opened fire and bombarded the island.

According to the original story, King Totas and his wife were separated in the explosion, and the furious queen came to Tokyo to take revenge. After Taro defeated the queen, King Totas took revenge on Taro. The last egg that the queen kept was hatched, and Taro was unable to do anything in the face of this situation. Finally, Seven came to the rescue and took away King Totas, the queen's body and the little King Totas. He sent them back to a planet suitable for them, resurrected the queen and let the family live.

That was how it was, but somehow something went wrong and King Totas and his entire family died on the island.

The entire island was flattened, and the beach completely disappeared in the boiling sea water. The remaining debris looked like a platform overlooking the buried land.

Although this world is still the Earth Guard, even in the United Nations, it does not mean that everyone's strength is equal, and this world is the same. There was a slight mistake in this story, so Ami's firepower destroyed King Totas's family in the flames.

The sea water hit the remaining land platform. The smell of gunpowder seemed to still fill my nose. The world in the distance was shrouded in darkness with only the sound of waves.

Higashi Kotaro transformed into Taro, and after undoing the transformation, he came to the island alone, deep in thought.

"It's better to leave early. The 'fishing boat' they plan to catch will be here soon."

"who is it!"

Higashi Kotaro looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man shrouded in darkness.

He was a person literally shrouded in darkness. Because it was too dangerous, Higashi Kotaro pressed the gun bag on his waist with caution.

"Me? Unlike you, I am the one who witnessed King Totas's death. What are you doing here, mourning for these monsters?"

Dong Kotaro replied, "The Totas King is innocent. If humans had not captured them without permission and put greed on their children, neither humans nor the Totas King would have been harmed."

"You are a giant of light, a race from outside the star that has good intentions towards humans. King Totas has killed many humans, including some who were coerced even though they did not receive the death penalty. No matter what, the lives of animals cannot compare to the lives of humans. But from what you said, you want to protect King Totas and his wife?"

"All life in the world has its own meaning. Even a puppy should not be abandoned casually. Moreover, King Totas is an intelligent being. He snatched their children and killed and ate them, and abducted his wife. If King Totas was a human, could you still say so lightly that the life of an animal cannot compare to the life of a human?"

"Of course I will protect humans, but that and King Totas are two different things!"

Xia Long and Dong Kotaro looked into each other's eyes, and after a while, Xia Long suddenly smiled.

"Nice eyes, it doesn't look like a child's play."

On the distant seashore, lights flickered, like the eyes of some kind of moth. Many pairs of yellow eyes appeared in the distance and came towards this side.

"You are more likable than that guy Saiwen, but Taro, staying here is not a good choice for you. The people who came are from the Earth Guard military, not the Set team. It's hard to explain why you're here now, right? Goodbye, my name is Leo, you can just call me Leo."

"My name is Tokotaro!"

Higashi Kotaro anticipated that the other party seemed to be leaving, so he spoke loudly. Of course, these sounds would not be heard by the "fishing boat" that was swimming over, but if Leo heard it, it should not be a problem.

"Hey, do you know my brother?"

"bad relationship."

The last sentence came via telepathy, and that person seemed to have been teleported away. Higashi Kotaro heard that person say, "It's really troublesome that you two have the same mind," and secretly curled his lips.

But he felt much more relaxed.

He turned his head and looked at the sea again, lowered his head slightly, and looked at the white scarf tied around his neck. He had seen a bad-tempered man when he was sailing before, and he had slapped him, but the scarf around his neck was quite handsome. However, this scarf was different. It was given to him by Grandma Green.

He tied it down solemnly, spread it out, looked at it and said;

"I'm sorry, mother-in-law."

Higashi Kotaro kissed the white scarf for the last time, grabbed a corner and held it high up. The white scarf fluttered in the wind like some kind of flag.

Then Higashi Kotaro let go of his hand.

The white scarf flew into the darkness and disappeared, perhaps swallowed by the sea and pressed into the deep sea.

This is Dong Kotaro's condolences to King Totas's entire family.

In Xia Long's room.

Xia Long's room cannot be said to be empty. It has basically all the necessary furniture. But after all, no one had lived there before he came, so he chose to move in. Therefore, it has everything it should have. In other words, there is nothing else. It retains the minimum level of integrity and reveals minimalism.

However, a huge fish tank appeared in the living room at some point. It was very empty inside. Apart from water and some feed, there was not even a rock landscape or algae. In the full water, there were only three turtles of unknown species swimming around leisurely, two large and one small. The small one was lying on the back of one of the big ones, and the two big ones were putting their heads together intimately.

"Why didn't I save him? ... For someone like me, it's most important to know when to take action. If you do too much, you might end up in the opposite position."

Xia Long talked to himself while drinking beer.

“…That’s good.”
