Under the bright night sky, Firth and Smith sat together on a grassy slope.

"Learning combat skills? Why? Hearing Smith's answer, Firth looked surprised.

Smith looked at the sky in the distance and said, "Don't you want to go to Earth?" That's the way, I want you to learn combat skills, only then will you have the opportunity to join the Space Guard, after joining the Space Guard, you will have the opportunity to go to Earth to protect humanity, how about it, are you willing? ”

"Grandpa Smith, I don't want to learn any combat skills, and I don't want to join the Cosmic Guard, is there no other way to go to Earth?" Firth said unhappily.

"If you want to go to Earth, this is the only way, to be able to protect this world, defend world peace, and become a big hero, what's so bad about that? Firth, don't you want to go to Earth? Smith said tentatively.

In fact, in Firth's heart, he just wanted to accompany Smith through this life in peace, and he never wanted to be a warrior, nor did he want to be a hero, not to mention that he didn't have a good impression of the world itself, so why should he protect this world?

"But I hate the world! I...... I don't want to protect such a world. Firth couldn't help but say loudly, but slowly his voice grew quieter and quieter.

It seems that the knot in his heart is still not untied.

Smith sighed, got up from the morning, and muttered, "Then there is no way, I was going to say that this way you can see your father......"

"What do you say? My father? Is he still in this world? Where is he now? Firth suddenly jumped up from the ground and hurriedly asked.

"But you've said you don't want to join the Cosmic Guard, and it's impossible to see him, alas!" Smith said helplessly.

"Could it be that he is ......" Firth guessed in his heart, a little emotional.

Smith said seriously: "Yes, he is in the Cosmic Guard now, but we ordinary Ultraman can't see him, unless he is a member of the Cosmic Guard, I'm sorry, Firth, grandpa has been hiding this from you, it was your father who told me not to tell you his whereabouts, he said that one day when you become stronger, go to the Cosmic Guard to find him, he will always be there waiting for you." ”

Unbeknownst to Firth, Smith had told him a lie that had affected him for the rest of his life.

"But why did he leave me alone from the time I was born? Why, exactly? Firth grumbled to Smith as if his father was standing across from him.

"Firth, don't blame your father, in fact, he also has a last resort!" Smith hurriedly explained, hoping to resolve the resentment in Firth's heart.

"The last resort? Is there anything more important than your own children? He left his son like that? Firth snorted coldly, but the resentment in his heart did not diminish in the slightest.

"Alas, let's tell you the truth, your mother died because of the early birth of you, unfortunately died, your father was a member of the space guard, not long after, there was a big war in the universe, in order to rush back to the space guard, to participate in the war to defend the peace of the universe, in desperation, he can only entrust you to me, before leaving, he asked me to wait for you to grow up and apologize to you on his behalf, he said that he is not a good father, he just wants to say sorry to you, and at the same time he also told me that he hopes you can grow up quickly, to learn to fight, to become a strong man, he looks forward to the day when he can see you in the cosmic guard, he will always be there waiting for you. As he spoke, Smith unconsciously felt a little sad.

"He- really, did he say that?" After hearing these words, Firth's heart was touched a little, and the resentment in his heart decreased somewhat.

"Yes, Firth, don't you want to see your father again, even if it's not for the peace of the universe, even if it's for your father?"

Smith's words entered Firth's heart.

Indeed, since he was sensible, he had imagined his father and mother in his dreams countless times, he always wanted to see with his own eyes what his father and mother looked like, whenever he was ridiculed by the people around him for not having parents, he wanted his parents to be by his side and be able to care for and protect him all the time.

Now that he has learned of his father's whereabouts, although he still has a trace of resentment towards his father in his heart, more than that, he still misses him.

He can do anything to see his father!

"Alright! Grandpa Smith, I want to learn combat skills, I must join the Cosmic Guard! Firth looked at him like a torch and said firmly.

"Have you really thought about it? I can't go back on what I said! Smith said with some concern.

"Well, please teach me how to fight!" With a slight bow, Firth insisted.

Feeling Firth's exuberant fighting spirit, Smith was originally worried that Firth would regret it halfway, but now it seems that he has really decided.

"Very well, Firth! However, it is not easy to join the Cosmic Guard, and from now on you will have to keep learning combat skills to become stronger! The Cosmic Guard will recruit new members from time to time, but they must take a combat test, defeat the opponent, and enter the top 100 in the test score to pass, but at least more than 10,000 people in our entire country of light will participate in the battle test! In other words, only one person out of a hundred people can pass, Firth, can you face such a challenge? Smith continued.

"No problem! In order to meet my father, no matter how difficult it is, I will try to overcome it, please believe me! ”

Looking at Firth's clenched fists and determined eyes, at that moment, Smith suddenly felt that the child in front of him must have great achievements in the future, and at the same time, he was even more determined to train this child to be an excellent Ultra warrior.

"Excellent! Then let's start combat training tomorrow! Firth, come on! Smith held out his right fist, and Firth knowingly reached out his small fist, which touched the big fist.

"I will! From now on, my dream is to become a powerful Ultra Warrior, join the Space Guard, and meet my father! Firth said scrappy.

Seeing Firth rekindle his zest for life, Firth smiled with satisfaction.

This child finally has the hope of trying to live.

"I'm sorry, Firth, forgive me!" A hint of guilt welled up in Smith's heart.

......

The next day, just after dawn, Smith got up and woke Firth up.

Firth rubbed his confused eyes and followed Smith to a remote mountain forest in a drowsy state.

"Alright, Firth, it's time for you to sober up!" Smith picked up the crutches and knocked Firth on the head, who had not yet woken up.

"Yes!" Firth was startled, came back to his senses, and looked at Smith.

"Well, from today, combat training has officially begun! I'm going to train you in the harshest way, and you can't be tired. Smith's expression suddenly became serious, "Having abundant physical strength is the foundation of battle, let's do the most basic physical training today, Firth, you lie down!" ”

"Huh?" Firth was stunned for a moment.

"Hurry up and get down!" Smith urged.

Although he was a little confused about Smith's intentions, Firth did as Smith asked.

"Do 10,000 push-ups from now on." Smith continued.

"What? 10,000 push-ups? No way? Firth looked up at Smith in surprise.

10,000 push-ups? Are you kidding! It's hard to make a thousand!

"Hurry up and do it! If you don't finish it today, you won't be allowed to go home for dinner! ”

"Hurry up!" Smith took the cane and slapped Firth on the ass a few times, Firth quickly put his hands on the ground and propped them up, and then supported his body with his arms, bending, straightening, bending, straightening, and repeating this action all the time.

Thirty minutes later, Firth was sweating profusely, and Smith was sitting on a nearby tree stump, watching.

Firth's physical strength gradually became a little exhausted, and his movements gradually slowed down.

"Hurry up and do it! Don't stop! Smith smacked Firth on his body with his cane, urging.

Firth only felt that Smith had suddenly gone from being a kind old man to a stern sports coach like a devil.

......

"Nine hundred and ninety-eight—"

"Nine hundred and ninety-nine—"

"A thousand—"

When he reached a thousand, Firth finally couldn't hold on anymore and lay on the ground unable to move.

"Grandpa Smith, I'...... I can't! Firth said breathlessly.
