A Knight's Journey Begins in Faiz

Meanwhile, on the other side, Kaido was invited by Kiba to the Smart Brain Group.

"What's the matter that you're in such a hurry? I'm in a rush to deliver the flowers. Let me tell you, if you interrupt my confession and don't have anything important to say, even you won't get away with it."

"You haven't given up yet?"

"What did you say?"

"No, it's nothing. I just feel that Truth doesn't seem to like the way you are."

"You don't know anything. She just hasn't realized how good I am yet. If she did, tsk, why am I telling you this? Hurry up and tell me what you want from me?"

"Kaidou, have you ever heard of the King of Orphnoch?"

"Huh? What is that?"

"The King of Orphnoch, that is the highest being in the Orphnoch realm."

Kiba began telling Kaidou about the Orphnoch King, revealing everything he knew, including how the Orphnoch King would appear, how to identify him, and how to destroy him.

Of course, I learned most of this from Jiang Yang.

"Hey, what do you want to achieve by telling me all this?"

"You probably guessed it by now, the child you saved seems to be named Zhaofu, and he seems to be the vessel."

"I'm talking nonsense. Zhao Fu is just Zhao Fu, an ordinary kid. What kind of bullshit container is this? It's utter rubbish. I don't know what your purpose is, but if you called me here just to say this, then I don't want to hear it. Goodbye."

After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.

Kiba shook his head.

"It's not that I want to tell you this; I'm just doing this on someone else's behalf. Jiang Yang asked me to tell you."

Kaidou, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped and turned around.

"Jiang Yang, why did he ask you to tell me all this? Where is he?"

Suddenly, Kaidou remembered something: the best way to kill the Orphnoch King was to destroy the vessel before the King was fully born.

"That bastard!"

As Haitang spoke, he was about to go find Jiang Yang.

"and many more."

"What else is there? I'm warning you, I'm very busy and don't have time for you..."

Before he could finish speaking, a box was thrown over. Kaidou caught the box, opened it, and inside lay ixa.

"what do you mean."

"Please take this back to him. He said he's leaving after this and probably won't see it again in his life. In that case, let's return it to its rightful owner."

Kaidou initially wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it again, he agreed.

"Ah, I understand. I will return it to him properly."

He emphasized the words "return it to him".

Watching Kaido leave, Kiba sighed. If he were Jiang Yang, he probably would have made the same choice.

On the other side, Jiang Yang had been fighting with King Ao for quite a while. King Ao's strength was indeed not at its peak, and Jiang Yang was not afraid at all.

However, this guy has a beam attack that deals ridiculously high damage, and Jiang Yang doesn't dare to take it head-on at all.

However, in the end, he was just an incomplete individual, whose consciousness had not even fully awakened, and whose fighting relied only on instinct.

Dodging beam attacks is not something that cannot be done.

Although it wasn't easy, Jiang Yang had already ended the battle before Qiao and Kusaka arrived.

When Kaido arrived, all he saw were the three silent men and Teruo lying on the ground, lifeless.

"asshole!"

He yelled and charged straight at Jiang Yang, transforming into an Orphnoch mid-charge and throwing a powerful punch. By the time Jiang Yang heard the sound and turned around, it was too late. The punch slammed into his chest, sending him flying backward and crashing into the wall.

Jiang Yang coughed up blood; he felt as if his internal organs were about to shift from that punch.

He quickly took out a coin to absorb the pain, which made him feel a little better.

Upon seeing Kaidou transform into an Orphnoch, Soga immediately picked up his belt.

"No, no need."

Jiang Yang raised his hand to stop Cao Jia.

Haitang rushed up again, grabbed Jiang Yang by the collar with both hands, and lifted him up.

"What the hell have you done? How could you do this, you bastard? How could you do this... Even if someone had to hurt him, it should have been me. I'm the one who saved him. What right do you have...?"

Haitang's voice grew softer and softer until he stopped speaking. He put Jiang Yang down and returned to his human form.

Without saying another word, he took out the ixa belt.

"Ready!"

"henshin! (Transform!)"

"Fi-stOn!"

Jiang Yang knew about Haitang's frustration, and since he himself was also a bit angry after taking that punch, he immediately transformed into Gaim.

The outcome of the battle is no longer important.

"I will never forgive you."

Kaidou left with only this one sentence. Holding Teruo in his arms, he departed.

Jiang Yang smiled wryly and said nothing, simply silently taking back the ixa belt.

"I never expected him to be an Orphnoch. That bastard, how dare he get close to the truth."

Cao Jia cursed, but then noticed that Qiao and Jiang Yang's expressions were very strange.

"You two, you didn't know all along, did you?"

"Well, oh, haha."

"you…"

Kusaka was so angry with those two that he left. Weren't they being a little too lenient with the Orphnoch?

Jiang Yang could only smile at this.

In the end, only cleverness remained.

"Are you leaving?"

Jiang Yang had mentioned his intention to leave before, and Cao Jia was aware of this.

"Hmm, more or less. I've stayed here long enough; it's time to go see other places."

"Will he come back? Don't misunderstand. I just wanted to say, aren't you going to say goodbye to Keitaro? He already considers you a friend."

That's it! That's more like it! That's perfect!

"No, parting is too sad. Just say goodbye for me. Tell him he forgives me for leaving without saying goodbye, and that I left him a farewell gift at the shop. Also, tell him that since you finally managed to win him over, you should cherish him, even if he's an Orphnoch. I'm telling you the same thing."

"Huh? Ha, I don't know what you're talking about."

"Why are you pretending with me? I knew your identity the first time I met you. What's there to hide? After all, those who can use Faiz are either Orphnoch or humans with the Orphnoch mark. The latter requires an implanted mark, which you definitely haven't done, so you can only be the former."

"what?"

Qiao was dumbfounded. He thought he had exposed something, but it turned out to be because of his belt.

"Surprised? This was originally meant for Orphnoch to use to protect the King. Alright, if you're interested in these things, go to the AI ​​and find Kiba. He'll tell you everything."

"Jiang Yang, I really can't see through you. Who exactly are you? I feel like I've asked this question many times."

"There are quite a lot, but my answer remains the same: I'm just a traveler who has simply learned more about certain things. Alright, I won't say any more."

Jiang Yang got up and looked around to make sure there were no pedestrians.

"Last but last, could you do me a favor?"

"What? If it's about borrowing money, I don't have any."

Jiang Yang's face darkened. Borrow money? He needed to borrow money?

The money Orphino has generated during this time is more than they can spend.

"Don't worry, it's just a small favor."

A few minutes later.

"Huh? Are you sure you want to do this? No way, this is too embarrassing."

"Consider this my thank-you gift for saving the boss. You can't even grant me this small wish?"

"You, tsk, fine."

He skillfully took out the Faiz belt and put on his clothes.

"Stand By!"

"henshin! (Transform!)"

"Plete! (Done!)"

Faiz appeared in front of Jiang Yang, and then looked around again to make sure there was no one else there.

"Only once!"

"Uh-huh!"

All I could see was the basic form of Faiz, with one finger pointing to the sky.

"Grandma once said that I am the man standing at the center of this world."

Pfft, Jiang Yang couldn't hold it in.

"you!"

"Sorry, sorry, I just remembered something funny. Don't worry, I'm a professional, I won't laugh no matter how funny it is. Please continue."

After saying that, Jiang Yang regained his composure.

Qiao couldn't do anything to Jiang Yang; after all, he had done her a favor.

Replace it with memory that supports accelerated instructions, and it will become an accelerated form.

He had his back to Jiang Yang.

Jiang Yang directly controlled a Hanzo to charge towards him, and then jumped up at the right position.

All that could be seen was Faiz turning around and executing his Gravity Roundhouse Kick, which missed its mark.

"Pfft, hahahahahaha."

Jiang Yang couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing.

Qiao immediately deactivated her transformation and glared fiercely at Jiang Yang.

"Sorry, sorry, haha, I did get a little out of character. Anyway, thank you."

What is the significance of these actions?

"Who knows?"

"Tsk, what a perverse sense of humor."

"Whatever you say. Alright, it's getting late, I should go. See you again someday."

"It's better to never see a guy like you again."

Jiang Yang simply smiled, mounted the War Lion, and rode away until he disappeared from Qiao's sight.
