A Knight's Journey Begins in Faiz

Jiang Yang was pleasantly surprised by the effects of this potion. It could improve his physical fitness, and its preciousness was self-evident.

After all, the world of knights is often accompanied by danger, and if he had the physical abilities of an ordinary person, he might not have survived.

Even if you later obtain a belt or something, you can't use it if your physical fitness isn't up to par.

As for why Jiang Yang, who has no memory of this world, would think it's a Kamen Rider world... please, think about why he came to this world in the first place.

Without hesitation, he drank the entire potion. The bottle disappeared immediately after he finished, presumably to prevent anyone from studying the residue on the bottle.

After drinking the medicine, Jiang Yang felt a warm current flow through his entire body; the feeling could be summed up in one word: comfortable.

The comfortable feeling quickly faded, replaced by a powerful sense of fulfillment; my own strength, I estimated, was twice as high as before.

This doubling should not be underestimated; with physical fitness doubling, human combat capabilities would increase by at least two or three times.

Conservatively speaking, he could easily take on four or five of his former self now.

The remarkable thing about this potion is that it improves his physical condition, and his body adapts almost instantly, without any sudden increase in strength that he can't control.

After a simple test, Jiang Yang was very satisfied with the potion's effects. Now, if the opponent was suitable, he wouldn't mind trying to fight monsters with his bare hands.

Alright, now for the main event: the lottery ticket. He doesn't know what he'll get, but if he's lucky, he might get enough to survive in this world.

If you're unlucky, you might end up having to survive in another world.

Use the lottery ticket to start the draw.

He didn't believe in metaphysics or anything like that. Washing his hands and face, burning incense and praying to Buddha before a lottery was unnecessary; a person's luck wouldn't change because of those things. At least, that's what he thought.

The roulette wheel spun and then quickly stopped. Because he couldn't see what the prizes were, Jiang Yang didn't feel the tension of holding his breath and staring intently.

He didn't even know when the roulette wheel stopped; he just couldn't contain his joy when he saw the reward.

"The prize for this raffle is the IXA Set (including the IXA Gauntlet, IXA Belt, IXA Holy Sword, War Lion, and matching finishing move whistle, etc.)."

Just seeing the prize made Jiang Yang's lips curl into a smile that was harder to suppress than an AK. It was an IXA, an IXA!

Kamen Rider IXA, from Kamen Rider Kiva, is a rider suit created by the Supreme Blue Sky Society to eliminate the Fang Blood Demon. Its design is based on the holy armor of a priest. Therefore, IXA in its protection mode gives off a sense of holiness.

When he received the prize, everything about ixa had already entered Jiang Yang's mind.

The IXA suit he acquired was the version prior to the Ascended form, and its harm to the wearer's body had been reduced to a negligible level. In addition to the Preservation mode, it also allowed the activation of a Burst mode.

Burst mode allows the ixa to operate at full power. Because it is at full power, it puts a high load on the ixa itself and its built-in computer, so continuous use for more than 30 minutes will become a very dangerous situation.

In maintenance mode, it operates at 60% power, and is relatively stable in all aspects. The built-in battery can support its operation for about 12 hours.

Yes, the battery. The ixa is powered by electricity. In addition to the main battery pack, the ixa has a backup battery that can support about six hours of operation.

Incidentally, the kit includes an ixa charging device that can charge without being connected to a power source, truly a form of "virtual charging."

Of course, these are not the biggest advantages of ixa. The biggest advantage of ixa is that it has low requirements for the wearer.

In the past, when the original ixa placed a huge strain on the body, only those with extremely high physical fitness or those who were incredibly resilient could wear it, and the transformation could not be sustained for long periods.

But nowadays, ixa is something that almost anyone can use.

Of course, while it may be usable, it's hard to say how much of its potential it can actually unleash.

However, it won't be low either. The ixa has a built-in auxiliary computer that can assist in combat, so it can at least unleash 60% of its strength.

It's fortunate it's an IXA belt; if it were any other belt with strict transformation conditions, Jiang Yang would be devastated. Like those belts limited to a particular race or with special transformation conditions.

For example, Kiva requires the bloodline of a vampire. Ordinary humans would consume their life force to transform.

For example, ex-Aid requires adaptive surgery or infection with gaming-related diseases.

For example, a dragon rider needs to sign a contract with a contracted beast.

These are conditions that he cannot meet.

So, the ixa belt is really great.

As a tokusatsu fan, what's the first thing you do when you get your belt and punch gun?

of course!

"Ready!"

"henshin! (Transform!)"

"Fi-stOn!"

As the fist-shaped weapon was inserted into his belt, ixa materialized into a golden image, then appeared on Jiang Yang's body. ixa Security Mode!

"This is it, Ixa. It feels pretty good to wear, really awesome!"

Only by personally wearing the ixa can one truly appreciate the excellence of the ixa system: negligible load, immense power, and real-time computer-monitored body data within sight.

This feeling is truly, I've never had such a wonderful start.

He turned off the transformation just to test what it felt like. The room was too small to move around freely, and he was worried about breaking things.

He hasn't investigated anything about this world since he arrived here.

First, they searched the room.

Jiang Yang found his motorcycle driver's license, which is like an ID card.

Then there was some Japanese yen in cash, and now I'm certain that I've arrived in Japan from some tokusatsu drama.

He searched the entire room and finally found a clue about this world, after which he felt a headache coming on.

He found a company's promotional poster, Smart Brain, a company from Kamen Rider Faiz, which can almost be considered a villainous organization.

The company's top executives are one of the monsters in this show, the Orphnoch.

In Jiang Yang's view, the Orphnoch is an incomplete being. Humans who die and are naturally resurrected without external assistance become Orphnochs.

The deaths here fall into two categories: one is being killed by Orpheus, and the other is other forms of death.

After an Orpheus's heart is turned to ash by special means, there is a chance that the apostle will be reborn, becoming an Orpheno. However, the power of this Orpheus is usually not too strong, like that of Begonia.

If someone dies without the power of Orpheus and is resurrected naturally, they will become a native Orpheus, just like Marco and Yuuka, and their power will be stronger than that of a normal Orpheus.

However, regardless of the method, the success rate is extremely low, which is why Orphnoch is not found all over the world.

Of course, this is all on the premise that the world Jiang Yang arrives in is the world of the TV series. If it were the world of the movie "Paradise Lost," then Orphnochs would be everywhere, and humans would be a rare species.
