However, Lady Iwama's body is now shattered into a pile of mud, making it clearly impossible for her to be parasitized.
Then the problem is coming.
Where is that monster that hatched from the human head model now?
Combined with Mrs. Iwama's inexplicable escape and Tetsuo Uchihara's sudden appearance...
Perhaps the outcome is already quite obvious.
Lady Iwama had long ago allowed that monster to parasitize her daughter.
The reason they deliberately escaped from the villa was to lure themselves and Daigo out, giving the monster time to escape.
The only thing Mrs. Iwama didn't expect was that Daigo would be attracted by the girl's crying and wouldn't follow Lu Xuan out!
"No, there is still one major question that has not been resolved."
I'm not worried at all about Daigo's situation.
Lu Xuan is now more concerned about why Lady Iwama, or rather, why that monster has targeted him.
The terms "person of light" and "sacrifice" were previously translated by Omnitrix.
Lu Xuan was basically certain that Madam Iwama was deliberately waiting for him and Daigo to come to her door today.
"For that monster to truly take shape, it must absorb humans with ancient genes?"
Faced with Lu Xuan's probing question, Tetsuo Uchihara fell silent instantly.
Lu Xuan interpreted the other party's silence as tantamount to acquiescence.
"Because of Katsumi's previous self-sacrifice, the monster has become incomplete, and could even be said to be on its last legs..."
"We were able to hatch from the model thanks to Mrs. Iwama's help."
"However, as an ordinary person, even with your hints and help, it is not an easy task for Lady Iwama to help that monster take shape."
At this point, Lu Xuan paused again.
"This is still not right. I seem to have fallen into a cognitive trap..."
"Everything Mrs. Iwama did was essentially to keep her daughter alive; she had no reason to help that monster take shape."
"So what she really wants to do is to have her daughter replace that monster!"
His pupils suddenly contracted. After figuring out Mrs. Iwama's logic, even Lu Xuan couldn't help but be shocked by the mother's madness and audacity.
He would do anything to keep his daughter alive, even if it meant turning her into a pure monster.
......................................................................................................
Rewind a few minutes to when Tetsuo Uchiharado first appeared.
"It's okay, you're safe now."
Gently stroking the back of the little girl's head, Daigo soothed her emotions.
In this situation, Daigo had no time to think about what had happened on Lu Xuan's side.
All he can do right now is try his best to comfort the frightened little girl.
"Big brother...I'm so hungry..."
Seemingly sensing Daigo's kindness, the little girl finally stopped crying.
"Hungry?"
A chill ran through him for no apparent reason. Just as Daigo was about to say something more, the little girl spoke up.
"Big brother, you are so warm..."
Her voice was still timid, but the little girl managed a weak smile as she looked up again.
"You and that uncle from earlier are both so warm, even warmer than the sun."
In the little girl's eyes at this moment, Daigo was not a person at all, but a humanoid object that was always radiating light.
Not just Daigo, but the whole world in the little girl's eyes was distorted.
The earth is tilted, the rocks are soft, and the creatures are bloody and terrifying...
Aside from herself, everything the little girl saw was absurd and terrifying.
“My mother said that as long as I eat you, I will be able to see the normal world again.”
Amidst Daigo's utterly horrified gaze, the little girl uttered words that would shock the world.
"But I know my mother is lying to me."
"Because I have eaten a lot, but I still can't see my mother's face again."
Naive yet cruel, pure yet ignorant...
No one knows what Mrs. Iwama fed her daughter.
Anyway, when Daigo realized what the little girl was saying, his shock and horror instantly turned into pity and sorrow.
"Big brother, I don't want to eat you, please leave here!"
The little girl, still with tears streaming down her face, gently pushed away Daigo's embrace and murmured softly.
"Jia'er will stay at home obediently until her mother comes back and won't go anywhere."
Looking at the little girl in front of him, who was both delicate and strong, Daigo felt as if his heart was being gnawed by a thousand insects.
At this moment, Daigo could no longer agree with Mrs. Iwama's views.
To survive at all costs...
That was just a lie that Mrs. Iwama fabricated to satisfy her own paranoia.
This kind and gentle little girl should never have become a victim of such prejudice.
"Jia'er, be good, big brother will heal you."
As he whispered his promise, a newfound determination appeared in Daigo's eyes.
"Big brother?"
Looking up at Daigo in surprise, the little girl Karen felt as if she had seen the real sun at that moment.

Chapter 171 The One Who Illuminates the Darkness
"Humans who inherited the genes of the ancient times are all dazzling..."
Instead of directly answering Lu Xuan's various questions, Tetsuo Uchiharado simply stared at him silently and said...
“Especially people like you, the ‘People of Light’ who have already completed your own transformation…”
"In the eyes of the true favored ones of darkness, he shines as brightly as the sun."
With Tetsuo Uchihara's calm description, it finally revealed the true nature of the monster to Lu Xuan.
"The dark power gestating within that man is invisible, something that cannot be detected by the naked eye..."
"He initially intended to sink into the trench himself, hoping to perish together with that invisible darkness."
"But he didn't realize that once darkness has been conceived, it is very difficult to eliminate it."
After a brief pause, Tetsuo Uchihara's voice remained calm.
"Even if Lady Iwama broke the 'Egg of Darkness' and let her daughter eat the seed of darkness, it was just a change in the form of existence."
"Only light can dispel darkness, and only the divine can drive away evil."
"Only by consuming a 'Heart of Light' can a human who has consumed the 'Seed of Darkness' truly complete their transformation."
As Tetsuo Uchihara spoke, a strange smile appeared on his face.
"I know you don't care about the lives and deaths of mortals, but what about your companions?"
“That human named Daigo—he’s clearly different from you; he’s very compassionate.”
"I'm really looking forward to seeing what choice a human with a 'heart of light' will make."
"Is it about sacrificing yourself for an ordinary girl?"
"Or should we simply watch a mortal fall completely into the abyss of darkness?"
It has to be said that compared to the prophet in the original TV series, Tetsuo Uchihara is now more like an ancient alien monster who has lived for an unknown amount of time.
Life and death are of no importance to it...
In its eyes, there is no clear boundary between good and evil...
Besides spreading the faith of the gods Kiriel, Tetsuo Uchiharado's greatest pleasure was watching humanity struggle on the edge of pain and choice.
"I don't know what choice he will make, but I know very well what I will do."
Staring at Tetsuo Uchihara in the shadows, Lu Xuan suddenly took a step forward.
sizzle...
The flickering arc of electricity illuminated the darkness of the streets and alleys at that moment.
Lu Xuan appeared before Tetsuo Uchihara at an almost unbelievable speed.
The physical abilities enhanced by the electromagnetic gloves have long surpassed human limits.
With Lu Xuan's powerful telekinetic abilities, breaking the sound barrier with his physical body in a short period of time is not impossible.
Silence—Boom!
The figure arrived first, followed by the sonic boom.
This time, Lu Xuan held nothing back and immediately unleashed a killing move.
With its extreme speed and exquisite force, Tetsuo Uchihara, who was right next to him, had no time to react and could only watch helplessly as the punch slammed into his face.
boom!
Unsurprisingly, Tetsuo Uchihara, with his flesh and blood body, was unable to withstand this heavy punch.
He was sent flying like a sandbag, crashing hard into the wall behind him.
Click...
With the sound of the wall shattering, Tetsuo Uchihara, whose head was completely deformed, trembled all over, with only his head of snake hair still menacingly flicking his tongue.
......................................................................................................
Meanwhile, at the Iwama family's villa.
"Big brother, don't comfort Jia'er anymore."
After a brief silence, Kari reached out and touched Daigo's cheek, savoring the warmth of the light that was even greater than the sun.
"There's another bad Kari inside Kari's body; she's the one who made Kari the way she is now."
"She wants to come out and hurt her older brother now, and Jia'er can no longer stop her."
It was as if it were confirming his own words.
As Jia'er said this, the beast-like features of her body became even more pronounced.
"So, big brother, you should leave here quickly!"
When Jia'er uttered those words, an invisible force surged forth from all directions.
Caught off guard, Daigo hadn't even realized what was happening before he was abruptly pushed out of the small storage room.
The last thing Daigo saw was Kari lying on the ground in pain, with a pair of colorful, butterfly-like wings gradually growing from her back.
Bang!
By the time Daigo came to his senses, the door to the storage room had been closed.
"Jia'er?!"
Without time to think too much, Daigo instinctively pushed open the storage room door again, only to find a cluttered room covered in cobwebs.
Everything was as if it had never happened; Kari was not present in the storage room.
However, Daigo was absolutely certain that he was not dreaming; Kari's residual body temperature proved everything that had just happened.
