Ultra: Heroes Don't Ask Where They Come From

Xia Long's main search is in outer space, but he is a slightly neurotic person and wants to keep track of the information around him.

He knew about the Abandoned Children's Tomb from the beginning. For someone who used resentment as power, that place could be detected even if it was purified by the temple.

However, he followed an indifferent attitude and didn't care. On the one hand, he didn't realize that there was a monster lurking under the abandoned children's grave. On the other hand, this resentment was actually a problem created by today's society.

In this society, young mothers give birth to babies but do not raise them, and then abandon them. In the end, the resentment of the abandoned babies has to be commemorated in temples. What qualifications does Xia Long have to be in charge of such matters?

Xia Long knew very well how complicated the resentment of the dead was, and he was saved many times by this resentment.

The complex nature of the abandoned baby's resentment made him subconsciously not want to care about it. This was something that this society had crushed during the changing times, and it should be captured and resolved by this society.

When Abandoned Tomb was killing people around him, Xia Long could not detect it because his power did not go out. But now Abandoned Tomb has broken through and started killing people multiple times.

If it weren’t for Xia Long today, and if it weren’t for the three drunkards passing by yesterday, another child and two women would have died.

The focus of their thoughts on whether or not to solve the problem of the abandoned children's grave was soon distracted by another girl.

This girl holding a blood-sucking plant.

Xia Long is very sensitive to people's malice. If she hadn't stopped it today, the girl's adoptive mother would have died.

If Higashi Kotaro hadn't seen it today, several young mothers and children might have died. This girl had a heart of indifference and hatred that went beyond her age.

But for Xia Long, this indifference and hatred was quite unbearable.

What he just said to the girl was no joke. He knew that the flowers came from the orphanage, but he had to let the girl say it. If the girl didn't say it, he would use methods that were not "good" for people to force her to say it.

There is no doubt that the girl wanted to kill someone. Because of the resentment of being abandoned, the child wanted other young mothers to die.

If Xia Long had not stopped it, her adoptive mother would be dead now. This was not done by the girl herself, but in terms of the result and process, it was she who stuck the murderous blade into her adoptive mother's neck.

If Xia Long really achieves his goal of wanting to make others suffer because of his own pain, he will have to kill the girl.

In another situation, even if the girl was not killed, she would have suffered a situation similar to that of Keigo Masaki.

I will really attack you, even kill you.

This is Xia Long's will, no joke at all, like some cold and ruthless law of nature.

Children are very sensitive. Kana became afraid because she sensed Xia Long's will.

Faced with the threat of death, Kana's hatred was distorted.

Xia Long used to carefully control his actions. On the one hand, he was afraid that people like him would interfere too much and end up with bad consequences. So he regarded himself as a prevention mechanism for the destruction of civilization. Only when the current civilization was destroyed or invaded by an unreasonably powerful force and could not resist, would he resist on its behalf.

Xia Long felt that he would not misinterpret the concept of "unreasonable" and act on his own, but from an insurance perspective, letting a person make such a decision was dangerous in itself, so he refused to interfere further.

This kind of thinking was carried out carefully the previous few times, but in this world where there was no reason to resist, Xia Long realized the weakness of his own heart and reached out to help.

Following behind Kana, Xia Long moved forward in silence. Logically speaking, he might have made Kana realize the seriousness of the situation by saying a few more words that would go against his will, but he hated Kana's behavior, so he said nothing, but said to Kana with a cold feeling that was too early for a human being, "If you don't take me to the right place, you will definitely be punished."

Xia Long looked at the little girl's back, and a black shadow invisible to humans crawled out from behind Xia Long's body, and then slipped away in an instant. Xia Long heard the murderous voice in his ear suddenly turned into a low voice.

[Kill this girl. You know best that kindness in the face of death is worth less than a blade of grass. Unlike most people, this girl actually killed someone!]

As a result, Kana finally brought Xia Long to the abandoned children's grave.

"You still know the fear of death, that's good."

The orphanage is a cemetery, a separate cemetery used to bury dead orphans. Each stone tombstone is wrapped with brightly colored flowers.

Xia Long's voice was calm. He and Kana stood in the cemetery, with red flowers entwined around the tombstones.

"Knowing the fear of death means you still have a foundation for empathy. If you take me the wrong way, I will have no choice but to monitor you and consider killing you. You are a threat to many good people if you stay in this world and grow up last."

The little girl was opening and closing the scissors in her hands.

Xia Long was not interested in considering the girl's inner thoughts. He just felt sad about the resentment in front of him. He stretched out his hand and said to the little girl, "Hold it."

The girl was still playing with the scissors. Xia Long stood next to the hand holding the scissors. She was three or four seconds slow, put the scissors in her other hand, and grabbed Xia Long's hand. Xia Long felt the girl's palms were sweaty.

The perspective has changed.

The melting sight lasted for less than a second, as if something bright red was peeling off in front of him, and all the light disappeared from the surroundings, as if the spotlight of a big stage had been snuffed out.

It was so dark around her that she couldn't even see the people around her. Kana felt suffocated. Her normal breathing rhythm suddenly became uncomfortable. The air became abnormal and unfamiliar. She felt pain and struggled.

"do not move."

The light suddenly appeared, the air returned, and the surroundings appeared in sight like a tide. Kana looked around with wide eyes.

Under the rocky ceiling, a huge green mass, like a plant-like swamp or ocean, appeared in front of them and floated.

Kana still felt a little scared, as if something was pressing on her ears. She felt very uncomfortable and even wanted to let go and run away.

Sharon closed his eyes and said, "I'm sorry" then opened his eyes, "Eat him, Charybdis."

"No."

Kana said in a voice that was a little hoarse for a girl, and she intuitively sensed that something bad was about to happen to her.

The green ocean disappeared, as if it was swallowed by the air, all of it disappeared. In the light that came from nowhere, the hard rocks and dust at the bottom of the exposed space were visible. There was not even a sound of chewing, as the green ocean was completely eaten up.

Kana's eyes widened. She felt that the familiar things had disappeared. She wanted to shout out loud, and even looked at Xia Long with anger and murderous eyes, but she was once again met with Xia Long's dark pupils that were empty. It seemed that there was no life, and it was dead, but Kana suddenly felt a huge fear in her heart again, because the eyes in front of her were eyes that would not mind eating her.

The surroundings had returned to their original places without anyone noticing. Xia Long touched Kana with his palm stained with a black color invisible to humans. Kana's eyes became dazed for a moment, and she suddenly felt a painful electric current. Every muscle and cell in her body seemed to be burnt. Her entire body was in the same pain, and she couldn't tell where her flesh was burnt on the frying pan. As a result, she lost all control from her toes to her eyes.

The pain seemed to disappear in an instant. The girl squatted on the ground, covering her head. Her face showed an unprecedented change in expression. Fear was fully revealed in her beautiful black pupils.

"Go back and be a good child. Bring your mother some water to drink. I will come to visit regularly."

Xia Long withdrew his hand that was touching the air and spoke in a calm and decisive voice.

"If you kill someone again next time, I will kill you."

Watching Kana's back as she left, Xia Long stood still. A black shadow slipped into Xia Long's body. In his mind, Xia Long ordered the mist to go to Kana's body to prevent Kana from calling the police or telling others about his existence, which would be a trouble for him.

[You really like raising children, a son and a daughter, right? A harmonious family, full of joy! ]

He remained expressionless in response to the Yabo man's seemingly sensible words.

Higashi Kotaro and Kitajima came to the abandoned children's grave together. Although it felt like they ran a few minutes longer than expected, the blood-sucking plants were more important.

But when the two of them worked together to find the root, Kitajima made a surprised sound.

"The roots-the roots, have been broken?"
