Cosmic Hero, Superman A-Guang

Chapter 79 Ita Thanlang

In the following days, Yang Guang and Xing Liangzi patrolled as usual, but they found many students running on the roadside.

"Hey, why is everyone exercising so hard lately?" Yang Guang asked.

"A marathon for middle school students will be held in the city soon, so everyone has started practicing," a student said.

"I see!" Yang Guang continued his patrol after understanding the situation.

A few days later, when Yagami was on patrol, a boy suddenly appeared. He ran very fast, almost faster than an ordinary person.

So they brought the boy's information back to UGM, and with Captain Dashan's explanation, everyone learned about the boy's background.

The boy, known as Marathon Boy, was actually Date Tanron, a monster living on Mount Ōmine in the central mountain region. Because Mount Ōmine is covered in snow year-round, and climbers never survive, it is also called Death Mountain. The nearby villagers regarded Date Tanron, who lived there, as a god who moved at high speed.

Ita Tanrang loved to eat sweet potatoes and radishes, so the villagers offered them as sacrifices. In return, Ita Tanrang would transform into a boy every year and run around the village. Anyone who saw this boy would have their illnesses miraculously cured.

So this monster is actually a good monster that benefits the local people! If only all monsters were this kind.

Date Tanro also enjoys watching marathon races and likes running marathons himself. Presumably, after learning that a middle school marathon was about to be held in the city, Date Tanro transformed into a marathon enthusiast and came down from the mountain to the city.

Date Tanro is a friendly and cheerful person. After meeting the boys who were training for a marathon, he challenged them to a race. None of the boys were a match for him.

Later, he ran into Hsing Yun High School, one of the participants in the marathon, because he saw someone practicing running there who looked better than the others, so he went in to compete. This person was a participant from Hsing Yun High School, and the competition resulted in the school's participant being injured. The principal, seeing how good the marathon runner was, recruited him to the school and had him compete in the race for them.

The principal served the marathon boy sweet potatoes and radishes, but when the other students saw him eating them, they mocked him.

In a fit of rage, the marathon runner revealed his true form and ran at high speed through the city at night, causing damage.

The UGM radar detected a signal indicating the monster's appearance, and Captain Oyama ordered everyone to attack! However, they were repelled by Date Tairou's storm breath. Then, Takeshi Yagami appeared, transformed into Ultraman Ace, and urged Date Tairou to stop destroying the city and return to the mountains. Date Tairou then disappeared, transforming back into Marathon Boy.

The marathon was held as scheduled the next day. Yang Guang, Hoshi Ryoko, and Yato Takeshi came to watch the race and cheer for the students.

Date Tanro is once again participating in the high school marathon as a marathon boy.

In order to prevent students from other schools from winning, the principal of Xingyun Middle School deliberately released dogs to bite students from other schools.

That's incredibly heartless!

However, this backfired, frightening Marathon Boy and causing him to transform into a monster again. Marathon Boy was terrified of dogs because he had been bitten by one before.

Date Tanran is 52 meters tall and weighs 2 tons. His normal speed can reach Mach 1.2, and his top speed can reach Mach 2. He can breathe out storms.

Yang Guang transformed into Ultraman Geed and came out to persuade Date Tanro. Yang Guang knew that Date Tanro was not bad and even benefited the people, so he did not want to eliminate him.

However, Ida Tanlang ignored the advice and charged straight at Gade.

Well, for disobedient children, the only option is to give them a beating first.

As Gade turned to face the oncoming Date Tanro, he hooked his foot, and Date Tanro, who was going too fast to stop, was tripped by Gade and fell flat on his face!

Ida Tanlang stood up and roared, then charged forward to attack Gade.

When Gaid saw Ita Tanlang's movements, he laughed. "You don't think that just because you're fast you're good in a fight, do you? You're a marathon runner, what kind of fighting do you know!"

Gaide let Date Tanlang step forward to attack, then spun around and swept his leg, knocking him to the ground. He then spread his hands in front of Date Tanlang.

Gade: That's it?

How infuriating! So infuriating!

Itatanlang spewed a storm from his mouth, which blew toward Gade.

Gade stood with his arms crossed, motionless as the wind whipped buildings into the air.

Are you kidding me? A wind of 60 meters per second would indeed be a disaster for humans, but it's nothing to Ultraman. After all, Ultraman's running speed has now reached around Mach 1.7, which is 578 meters per second. What can a little wind do to him?

Ya's fierce gaze fell silently upon Gade's pretentious act.

Ya no Takeshi: "Damn it, he got me again! Yang Guang has changed a bit since he started dating Hoshi Ryoko; he's gotten better and better at pretending. But who are you trying to fool?"

Then, he inadvertently turned his head and looked at Hoshino Ryoko, and saw her holding her hands in her heart, looking at Gade with an expression of adoration.

Okay! So people actually watch!

After Idatenran finished exhaling his storm breath, Gade said to Idatenran, "Alright, Idatenran, stop fooling around and go back to the mountains."

After letting out a long breath, Date Tanro felt much better. He knew he was no match for Ultraman Geed, and Geed hadn't attacked him anyway. So, he wisely reverted to his boy form.

Gade also disappeared on the spot and turned back into Yang Guang.

Finally, the marathon runner returned to the mountains carrying a large bag of sweet potatoes and radishes that Yang Guang had bought for him.

After about a week of peace, one night the UGM radar picked up several different types of radio waves. Although no monsters appeared, Captain Ooyama, to remain vigilant, ordered everyone to stay on duty at UGM that night.

A few days later, Yang Guang noticed that Yi Demeng was in low spirits and was also distracted at work.

"Ya Demeng, what's wrong? What happened?" Yang Guang took some time to sit down and chat with Ya Demeng.

"Ah, it's nothing," Yashiro Takeshi said.

"You don't look like you're alright. Can Ultraman get sick too?" Yang Guang asked with concern.

"Ah~ Actually, it's Kyoko-sensei. Because I work at UGM, I hardly have time to spend with her, especially these past few days, I haven't been able to go home at night either. So Kyoko-sensei broke up with me," Yato Takeshi said helplessly.

"Ah, I see. Well, you and Ms. Kyoko have been together for over half a year, and you two haven't really spent much time together in that time. A breakup is inevitable, isn't it?" Yang Guang said.

"Besides, Ms. Kyoko is more suited to marrying and having children with an Earthling. You'll eventually have to go back to the Land of Light. So what if you break up? The next one will be better!" Yang Guang continued to comfort her.
