"Do you think...he is really dead?"

At night, in an izakaya in Jungaoka City, a man sat at the ordering counter, smiling and sipping a glass of shochu.

The wine in the glass reflected the man's appearance under the dim and flickering lights of the pub.

He wore a white mask on the upper half of his face, and a sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth under the mask.

"Who?"

The woman sitting next to him opened her eyes carelessly. She looked like she hadn't slept for several days and nights, and the dark circles at the corners of her eyes were extremely thick.

The woman raised her head and looked at the man nonchalantly. She never liked men who kept her in suspense, because it would make her think that the other party was deliberately whetting her appetite, just like a fisherman sitting by the lake, swinging his fishing rod, waiting for the fish to take the bait with delicious bait.

But... a clever and cute little fish like her never knows how to refuse such interesting information.

"Yuuyu Hoshihara, or Gen Hoshino...I haven't heard people mention that man for a long time." The man chuckled, swirled the wine in the glass, and admired his own peerless face through the glass that could be used like a mirror.

"He deleted the entire world we live in today, including all his experiences, just like humans delete files on their computers. Not a trace is left. Isn't that interesting?"

"Oh? Really... without leaving any trace?"

The woman held her chin with her right hand and asked the man with great interest, "This man you mentioned, this is the first time I've heard of this name. Logically speaking, a man who can do this kind of thing cannot be an unknown person. This kind of man, no matter where he goes, will definitely leave a mark that will shock the world."

"So, where did he go?"

"I don't know..." The man spread his hands in a helpless manner and drank the wine in the glass with a depressed look on his face. He really didn't seem to know where the man had gone, and he was even upset about it.

"The name of this man is only remembered by those old antiques who are still lying on the ventilator. My grandfather happens to be one of them." The man chuckled and looked at the woman with a little pride. "You know what? In our line of work, intelligence is always the most important."

"It's just that the nature of the job is special. Apart from the occasional funded travel, aren't you still a social animal the rest of the time?" The woman raised her eyebrows slightly, pointed at her dark circles and complained to the man, "Partner, we are just world observers. Why do we have to take on such a stressful and harmful job? Look at me. I haven't slept for three days!"

"After all, the better the business performance, the happier those bigwigs will be. Only then can we be reborn into a good family. After all, this system was set by the original god of the world!"

The man chuckled and said calmly, "Flexible working hours, flexible time off. You can't find such a good job anywhere else. It's the only one in the whole universe, the whole world!"

"Although in this world, all of his past has been erased from the minds of most people. However, there will always be some people who are closely related to him and will have some impression of his existence. How could a man who could do such a thing die so easily? As long as we find him, half of the mission entrusted to us by the old antique will be completed."

The man smiled lightly, with a slight curve at the corner of his mouth.

"He will complete the next half for us himself."

"So, where would he be now? There is absolutely no evidence that he ever existed in this world."

The woman frowned slightly, her expression full of doubt.

The man smiled slyly and said, "He may be in a world that I have never been to, or he may still be alive in the world. But he is not a human being, but a ghost forgotten by the world, wandering alone in the corner of this world, protecting the person he loves most."

The woman frowned slightly, still a little confused. "Are you trying to use the [bond] between him and his friend to lure him out again? But how is this possible? His past has already been deleted by him."

"Yes, so he is needed in the future... to create a history that is similar to but different from the past."

As soon as the man finished speaking, the doorbell of the pub began to ring.

The corners of the man's mouth rose slightly, and he looked a little proud as he showed off his resourcefulness to his good partner.

"You see, I knew he would come back."

Hoshino Gen, who had not felt the atmosphere of worldly life for a long time, walked straight forward with his hands in his pockets after entering the izakaya.

A drunken middle-aged man with a tie on his head walked out with a half-empty bottle of wine. The two bumped into each other, but the drunken middle-aged man seemed to have bumped into air and was completely unaware of the boy in front of him.

The young man was used to this. He sat next to the young man and said coldly, "I came here according to the code you left for me. What is your purpose in coming to this world?"

"Hey, hey! Don't be so hostile. I'm not here to fight." The man chuckled and took out an object that was extremely familiar to Hoshino Gen from his briefcase.

Hoshino Gen's pupils shrank slightly, and he took the damaged version of Decade Driver from the man.

The driver is no longer usable, because its user is now an urban legend in the eyes of the world. Everyone may remember everything Kamen Rider Decade has done in this world, but they will not remember Hoshino Gen.

"You want to restore your human body so that it can be seen by the world, and I want to obtain your past log from you? As long as the two of us cooperate, it will be a win-win situation!"

The man opened the card box and pulled out twenty blank cards of the Heisei Knights. He said calmly, "Now you can only be noticed by the people of this world if you restore the power of Decade. And if you want to become Decade again, the power of other Heisei Knights is indispensable."

"You need to travel again to regain your human body." The man stared into Hoshino Gen's eyes and said lightly.

Hoshino Gen looked directly into the man's eyes and said coldly: "What should I do?"

"Go to other worlds to practice the will and strength of every Heisei Knight, use the power of the Knight to save different worlds, and carve the Knight's mark in their history."

The man took a deep breath and reminded slowly, "You can only obtain the basic form of each knight through the card now. You need to obtain all the knights' powers from scratch. At the same time, each world can only use the power of one knight."

"It will be a long journey, but you will still choose this, right?" The man winked slyly and said, "In the past, you embarked on a journey for the knight. Now, it's time for you to embark on a journey again for yourself."

"You're right, the conditions are very tempting. I really can't refuse." Hoshino Gen smiled lightly and took the damaged Decade Driver and Card Box Driver from the man. Then he smiled lightly, "I'm just a little curious, why do you want to help me?"

“Why?” The man seemed amused. “Because you hold the scripts of all the worlds in your hands, because there are still many people who are looking forward to your story, and because there are still many people who feel sorry for your story…”

"Are these reasons enough?"

"Thank you, that's enough." Hoshino Gen smiled faintly, and then an aurora curtain leading to another world appeared behind him.

Before leaving, the man suddenly asked a question.

"Which name will you use this time? After all, you have to fight for yourself this time."

Hoshino Gen was stunned when he heard this, and then he said without turning his head: "Hoshihara Yuu, let's use this name."

After Hoshino Gen left, the woman who had been silent suddenly laughed out loud.

"This man is really interesting. What do you think will be the last world he travels to?"

The man raised his eyebrows slightly and asked thoughtfully: "Why do you ask about the last world you traveled to?"

The woman licked her lips and said with a lingering feeling: "Because... for adults, the final dessert is the real treasure!"

"Who knows?" the man said nonchalantly, "I'm more curious about what the knight's power is that he will use in the end."

"But the world he's going to in the end, maybe... is a world devastated by the poison of disaster (Honkai/Yakiji-sensei)?"

……

"Mei, I'm here to protect you!"

In Changkong City, Kiana Kaslana, wearing the uniform of Qianyu Academy, was not afraid of the assassins in front of her. She waved the baseball bat in her hand and protected the haggard and tired purple-haired girl tightly behind her.

"Kiana, you, you should run! If I'm not here, you can definitely leave with your strength!"

"What nonsense are you talking about! Mei, let's go together!"

The two were trapped in a ruin with no escape, and just when Kiana, who had had enough, was ready to give it a try, a red and blue Kamen Rider jumped down from a high altitude and repelled all the assassins.

The smoke and dust were shaken up from the ground by the knight, and Kiana and Mei couldn't help coughing violently even though they covered their mouths.

When the smoke gradually dissipated, Kiana looked up and saw the red and blue knight, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"You, you are..."

"Long time no see, Kiana."

After the Kamen Rider defeated a warrior with one punch, he turned around and greeted the girl enthusiastically.

"Well, let's start the experiment!" The knight slowly turned around and took out the gorilla and diamond energy bottle from his waist, and smiled faintly at the group of dead soldiers, "Build up!"
