Tokyo University, around noon. . .
“What’s for lunch, boys?”
“Udon? I'm randomly craving some udon right now!”
“Hmm, that is similar to ramen! I kinda want something different for once! I’ve been eating ramen in my part-time job, guys!”
“Understandable. How about soumen then?”
“Bro. . .”
“Hahahahahaha! Sorry, sorry! That was a joke!”
“We have a lot of time today! That was our last class for the day!”
“Then wanna go karaoke? We can order some food there!”
“Ehh? I am way too hungry to be singing. Besides, not really in the mood!”
“Bro, you are never in the mood for karaoke.”
“Hahahahaha!”
Kojiro Yusuke is currently walking on the campus area towards the cafeteria with his friends. They were having a light and joyful conversation.
“Say, that woman you mentioned at your part-time, what was her name again?”
“Oh, Leonna-san? What’s up?”
“You said she was beautiful, right? Why not go after her?”
“Hahahaha! Nice joke! She already has a boyfriend.”
“EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHH??”
His friends were collectively shocked in harmony. Their jaws are left wide open.
“Alright, you all are exaggerating.”
*SIGH*
His friends collectively sigh again.
“It feels like every single woman in our age range is always in a relationship. There were no other women left for us. . .”
“True, true! I’ve always been jealous whenever I walk around town doing some errand for my parents during Christmas. UGGHH!! There are so many couples left and right wherever I look. IT’S SO DISHEARTENING!!”
“GOOD GUYS LIKE US NEVER STOOD A CHANCE!! WHY WOULD MOST WOMEN PREFER MEN WHO HAVE CRIMINAL RECORDS?”
“Hey, hey! That’s a bit too far, ain’t it? Calm down, guys!”
But then, they all see that there were many people nearby looking up and pointing towards the sky.
“Huh? What? What is going on?”
Yusuke and his friends collectively looked up in reflex.
*!!*
They saw that the sky quickly turned dark purple. A gigantic dome suddenly covered and trapped the entire city of Tokyo inside.
“EH? WHAT’S HAPPENING?”
“W-WHAT IS THAT?”
“A dome? Is this someone’s doing?”
“LOOK! RIGHT ABOVE US!!”
*!*
Someone in the crowd shouted and signalled everyone else. They all looked directly up and saw that there was a person skydiving from the sky all by himself. The person seems to be a man, judging by his appearance from afar. But the concerning part is the fact that he doesn’t seem to be wearing any parachute, and that he is skydiving freely towards the campus ground.
“The heck? Is someone really committing suicide in broad daylight?”
“Man, this is gonna be in the news!”
“Our campus is gonna be crowded by police officers. . .”
*!!!*
However, the next thing everyone saw was not something they ever expected.
*SHIIIIINNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG*
The skydiving man suddenly shines brightly in dark blue. Suddenly, a gigantic shadow looms over the entire campus grounds. Something massive is descending rapidly towards the campus grounds, and judging by its size, even the entire campus building will be crushed under its size.
“R-RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNN!!!”
Yusuke screams in panic and makes everyone in the vicinity go mad with fear.
“KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!”
“WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!”
“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!”
“RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNN!!”
Everyone quickly scatters as they keep screaming, trying to run away in vain from a certain death.
“COME ON!!”
Yusuke quickly pulled his friend's hand as they were frozen still in fear. They are all quickly trying to run towards the gate to the outside of the campus grounds. However, there is just no possible way that they would have made it. The difference between their running speed and the speed of the massive object that is falling towards them is laughable; their action is illogical.

“(I guess. . . This is it. . . I was about to lead a satisfactory life after my college. . . After all, graduating from this university would usually lead to a very successful life. . . I would get rich quickly from my standing. . . that would eventually lead me to find a girlfriend. . . I would marry her and have a child. . . Leading a family as a father. . . Aah. . . That would be awesome. . .)”
Yusuke’s life flashes before his very eyes right after he starts thinking of every possibility if he would survive this. As he kept thinking, a certain someone suddenly came into his mind.
“(Aah. . . Leonna-san's Faith power allows her to move at the speed of light. . . I know this is merely wishful thinking, but what if Leonna-san suddenly came to my rescue? Hahahahha. . . as if. . . There’s no way she would be here. . . I bet she would do anything in her power to save me if she knew that I was in danger. . . Alas, my life ends here. . . At the very least, being crushed by something that big would feel painless and instant. . . I don’t have to suffer as I let out my final breath. . . Haaaaaa. . . Farewell, cruel world that never grants me anything I ever wish for. . . This sucks. . .)”
*THUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMPPPPPPPPPPP*
*GRAAAAAAAAAAHHHHKKKKKKKKK*
*BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRR*
*CRACK CRACK CRACK CRACK CRACK CRACK*
*GRRTTKK GRRTTKK GRRTTKK GRRTTKK GRRTTKK GRRTTKK*
There was a giant creature that landed on the campus grounds, in a lying position with its back facing the sky. The impact of its landing crushes the entire Tokyo University building to the ground, cracking every nearby building and house, and whatnot, around 450m in diameter, killing about 1012 people who were inside the campus area, and creates a mild earthquake about 1500 meters in radius.
“. . .”
The giant creature lifts both of its hands and stares at them.
“No fingers. . . This feels so weird, but powerful at the same time!”
The creature is a giant bipedal humanoid giraffe, standing at 450m tall and weighing around 1200 tons. It's covered in dark blue fur with a lighter shade of blue on its spots that appear across its entire body. There is a long stretch of hair at the center of its back in black, up from the back of its neck, all the way down to its tail. It has a tail 100m in length with thick black fur on its tip. It has a pair of glowing red eyes. It has four metallic hoofs on its hands and legs. Its body is only 200 meters tall; the rest of its height is merely the length of its neck, about 250m in length. It has a pair of ossicones atop its head. The body of the giraffe is humanoid, but its limbs, tail, neck, and head are all giraffe.
*THUMP THUMP*
The giraffe kaiju stands up from its lying position. Every step it takes shakes the ground and cracks it even more. The giraffe kaiju now stands up with its head up and tall towards the sky. It is even taller than the Tokyo Skytree in the background. It looks left and right, trying to see the outcome of its landing.
“Exquisite! This much destruction and this many people died over the initial transformation. HAHAHAHAHAHA!! This is going to be a good day!! TIME TO RELIEVE MYSELF AND ENJOY LIFE TO ITS ABSOLUTE FULLEST!!”
But as he was laughing at what he’s capable of now, he realizes that his giraffe transformation is capable of something else.
*ZRAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRR*
A gigantic blue lightning strikes the two ossicones atop its head from above. The lightning sparks around its two ossicones, bouncing back and forth constantly, before it quickly dissipates, as per the giraffe kaiju’s will. The sound of the massive thunder should’ve stunned anyone in the vicinity, but most of them are dead already from its initial landing.
“THIS GIRAFFE CAN CONTROL LIGHTNING? WOOOOOOOOO!!! TIME TO TEST IT OUT!!”
*ZRAAAAAAAAARRRRRRR*
Giant blue lightning sparks again from its two ossicones atop its head.
“HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!”
It leans its head very far behind and swings it forward in a motion of doing a headbutt.
*ZRAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRR*
A massive blue lightning bolt suddenly strikes Tokyo Tower in the distance in its entirety.
*ZRRRRRRRRRKKKKKKKKKSSSSSSSSSSSSS*
The lightning bolt stays on the structure for a few seconds before it quickly dissipates, leaving behind a completely singed Tokyo tower.
*BOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM*
There are two observation decks that allow tourists and visitors to come and enjoy the scenery of Tokyo. There were many people inside, and they were instantly fried when the massive lightning strike hit the tower. Most of them immediately died, and only a few survived, but in a critical condition.
There is a four-story building directly under the tower where visitors can eat, shop, and visit several museums and galleries. There were also many people in this building, and they were all also electrocuted by the massive lightning strike. Almost everyone died instantly, and the few who survived suffered serious injury. In total, there were about 950 people who died, and about 27 survived in just one lightning strike.
“AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! THAT IS AMAZING!! THAT SIZE AND THAT RANGE!! THIS WHOLE TRANSFORMING GIMMICK IS AWESOME!! WOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!”
The giraffe kaiju is laughing so openly, lifting both of its hands in the air, celebrating over its horrible mass murder.
*FWOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM*
Suddenly, a flamethrower was shot from the ground towards its face. The flame thrower hits its left cheek, and the flame goes wild for a few seconds before it fades away.
“Huh? The fuck?”
The fur that was burned by the flamethrower was unaffected at all. There was not even any heat transferred into them.
The giraffe kaiju looks down to the left. It seems that there is a 34-year-old Japanese office worker down on the street. He is wearing a black suit, over a white shirt, a black tie, a pair of black trousers, and a pair of dark brown shoes. His entire appearance looked very wounded. There is blood rolling down the side of his face, his left hand has a big cut wound across its forearm, his right leg bone is broken, and he is standing limply. The man is in a horrible condition. His breathing is heavy.
The giraffe kaiju leans its long neck down towards the man.
“HUH? ARE YOU OPPOSING ME, LITTLE GUY?”
*pant pant pant*
The man is panting. It took everything he had just to run to this place. He was right in front of his office building when the kaiju lands that caused an earthquake, and his entire office building collapsed to the ground.
He used his Fire Faith power to escape the debris at the very last second. His reaction was very late as he genuinely did not expect something like that to happen. He was wounded heavily, even though his life was spared.
Every single one of his coworkers died instantly. He is the only person who works at the company who is still alive.
“WHO ARE YOU? AND WHY ARE YOU HERE?” the office worker shouts in frustration regarding everything, plus the fact that his flamethrower did absolutely nothing to the giraffe kaiju.
“IT DOESN’T MATTER WHO OR WHY! I AM HERE TO HAVE FUN, AND NOBODY IS GOING TO STOP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!”
The giraffe kaiju lifts its right hoof high into the air and swings it down towards the office worker in the street.
*BAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMM*
*CRACCKK*
It slams the street below, instantly creating a one-meter deep crater, 6 meters in diameter.
Given how big its body is, it couldn’t feel any feedback of crushing the office worker with its hoof.
“Huh? Where’s the blood?”
It lifts its paw and sees the crater, and it does not find any trace of blood whatsoever.
The man boosts himself out of his spot with his flame and now hides himself from the Giraffe kaiju’s sight.
*ZRRARRR*
*BWOOOSSHHH*
*SPLASSH*
*GRRK GRRRK*
*FWOOOOMMMMM*
*!!*
Suddenly, multiple elemental attacks were thrown at its face, coming from the east, all from the same directions and angles. A lightning spear 7 meters in length, a water twister 6 meters in height and 2 meters in width, a giant boulder 6m in diameter, a giant fireball 5m in diameter, and an array of wind slices, each with 3 meters in length.
*ZRRAAAAAAAAARRR*
*SLASH SLASH SLASH SLASH SLASH*
*SPLAAAAAASSSSHHH*
*GRAAAAAAHHHHHHKKKKK*
*FWOOOOOOOOOMMMMM*
*BOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM*
*BOOOMM BOOOMM BOOOMM BOOOMM BOOOMM*
All of those attacks were thrown at the same time, and they all hit the giraffe kaiju’s face in harmony, resulting in a chaotic combined elemental explosion for a few seconds.
