Synopsis

[Dark tone] + [First-person divine perspective] + [Infinite-flow episodic story] + [No female lead]

I am a nameless being of light, designation: “Apeiron.”

I do not understand human hearts. I understand only logic and calculation.

To observe the planet called Earth, I am forced to parasitize different human bodies.

My first Host was a disgraced detective named Yang Chen.

He was terminally ill, a habitual drunk, suspended from duty and under investigation, and eager to die.

Yet when faced with a monster, this man who wanted to die broke three ribs and risked his life to transform and fight, all to save a greedy developer.

But when the battle was over, the developer he had saved stood beneath the spotlight and pointed at him in the ruins, roaring, “That silver giant is a demon! He destroyed my construction site!”

Huddled in his dark, shabby apartment, Yang Chen laughed and raised a glass to the television as he coughed up blood.

I did not understand.

“Yang Chen, these are the vermin you risked your life to protect? Was it worth it?”

Yang Chen did not answer. He simply wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and drew his transformation device once more.

I am an immortal observer.

Upon the corpses of generation after generation of those compatible with the light, I will witness the deepest depravity and the brightest radiance of this species.

“It was not the light that chose humanity. In their despair, humans reached out and seized the light.”

Any Ultraman Stories Set Outside the Ultraman Universe?

For example, there are no Ultramen in a world, but the protagonist obtains an Ultraman transformation device, and monsters begin appearing too.

Are There Stories Where the Protagonist Becomes a Brand-New Ultraman Instead of an Existing One?

I mean stories where the protagonist becomes a brand-new Ultraman, not transmigrates into an old one like Tiga, Cosmos, or Zero, and not one of those especially powerful Ultramen either. A completely new one.
