Self-cultivation of Kamen Rider ZIO

216 Three Years
"Kamen Rider..."

"This war, Heart, is lost by you!"

"Krim—"

"Master Heart!!"

"Stupid, ugly, and xenophobic humans will not accept you! Zero, the next one to be wiped out is you——!"

The images of the past, the failure of the night when the world came to a standstill, keep reappearing in the memory loop.

[It's me... did I lose? 】

"...The bad news is...not only did you lose, you also died once, Heart..."

In a trance, it seemed to hear a vague female voice accompanied by noises sounding in front of him.

[Who is... talking? 】

"...And the... super good... news is that I can give you another chance, Heart, how do you choose? Do you still have the courage to fight again?"

The vague female voice gradually became clear, the noise faded away, Heart recovered his will, and slowly opened his eyes, the golden and red crossed alien knight armor faded from his body, and the body mimicry of the mechanical mutant turned into a tall man wearing a red leather jacket .

"Of course!"

Following the most direct emotion in his heart, Heart replied forcefully without hesitation.

"Really?" A smile spread on Aura's face, "Then, from now on, you are the king I will assist... Hey! What are you doing!?"

Ola's smile suddenly froze on her face, and she immediately raised her hand to slap Heart's big hand on her head away.

"What are you doing—? Heart!"

Ola pointed to Heart with flushed cheeks and said.

Heart didn't feel that there was anything to be embarrassed about. He carefully recalled the touch of his hand just now, looked Ola up and down, and shook his head with some doubts.

"Although I don't know how you resurrected me, but, little girl... are you human?"

Aura snorted coldly.

"So what? I'm a human being, so I can't revive you?"

"It's not impossible, but what is your purpose for resurrecting me?"

Heart continued to ask, his voice was peaceful, and he didn't look at all like the villainous party who once launched large-scale sabotage operations with his companions in order to rule mankind.

This is not to say that his sense of human beings has become better now, even though he has died once, the hatred and anger born of savagery are still burning in his heart.

But no matter what, Aura is now his benefactor who has resurrected, and she looks like a harmless little girl. With Heart's character, she will never vent those malice on Aura.

Watching from the sidelines, Ur, who was always vigilant, relaxed his clenched fist slightly when he saw this.

Just thinking of those experiences I had, and comparing it with Ola, for some reason, Ur's heart began to turn sour.

So, they all chose non-human beings to be the king, why did he meet such a pervert as Wang Oz?

At the same time, Facing Heart's inquiry, Ola frowned, gave an unhappy "tsk", and replied.

"Didn't you hear what I just said? Heart!"

"Well, I heard that."

"I heard you still ask?"

"Of course! Because I still don't understand... You are obviously a human being, why did you choose me, a mechanical mutant, to be your king? Similarly, I don't understand. When I ruled the human race and became king, What do you want me to do for you?"

Heart expressed his thoughts and doubts to Ola very frankly.

He looked at Ola, who looked a little stunned, and continued: "In other words, what purpose did you choose to assist others to become king?"

Hearing Heart ask this question, Ola will answer.

She really didn't think about what to do when Heart succeeded in becoming the king and replaced the history of the king's rule at the time of the devil, but there is no doubt that her purpose of assisting Heart to become the king is——

"To change the future!"

"Oh~? Change the future?"

The corners of Heart's lips curled up, and his eyes narrowed in an "interesting" arc.

"That's right!"

Aura nodded affirmatively, and made a good publicity for Heart about the atrocities of the Demonic Time King, as well as the cruelty and darkness of the future era.

When Ola finished speaking, she fixed her eyes on Heart again, only to find that there was no shock or fear on Heart's face, only a thoughtful expression and a faint...excitement?
Then, Heart's focus is completely different from what she expected!
Because, after hearing what she had to say about the power and brutality of the Demon King, the first question Heart asked her was—

"Is that demon king a human being?"

Ola: "???"

On the contrary, Ur reacted earlier than Aura at this time, and replied with a smile: "Yes, that demon king is human!"

"So that's it. This is really great news. I can't wait to fight him immediately!"

Heart said happily.

Originally, the emotion he needs to evolve is the "joy" generated during battle, and his goal is also to be like a human being, to become stronger in battle, and finally, surpass human beings!

If what Aura said about the future is true, then the human being who will become the king of the devil in the future will undoubtedly be the strongest human being, the ultimate goal he is looking forward to and most wants to surpass!

If he can succeed, he must be able to obtain the best "joy" right?

Similarly, if Ola chose him because of this, then I have to say that Ola's choice really suits him!

Thinking of this, Heart immediately looked into Ola's eyes and smiled.

"I admit you, my friend, what's your name?"

"O...Ola."

Seeing Heart's straightforward and sincere eyes, Ola replied somewhat involuntarily.

What's more, Heart's series of reactions made her feel a little surprised... Well, it was very surprising!
Unexpectedly, she now has no idea what to say next.

Aura sighed in great distress and rubbed her forehead.

But when she let go of her hand and raised her head again, she found a girl in a black gothic skirt between her and Heart.

"You human being, since the explanation is over, stay away from Master Heart!"

Seeing this girl with her hands on her hips and her head high and proud, Ola suddenly let out an "ah".

"What, it's number 9."

"Huh?" Medic almost exploded immediately, "Call me by my name properly, you stinky girl!"

"Tsk!"

Aura pouted and walked away.

At the same time, he ordered: "No. 3, you can check the current information of the outside world by yourself in a while. Ur, give No. 3 the tablet that collected their data earlier."

Two sentences, ordered two people respectively.

"Yes~Yes~"

Ur jumped off the table and threw the tablet at Brain.

Brian quickly caught it with both hands.

And Medic became even angrier when he saw this scene.

"Irreverent brat!"

Brain laughed dryly, listening to Medic's angry complaints, and looking at the back of Ola who had already walked away, the corners of his mouth twitched, muttering softly.

"Another woman with a bad personality, no respect, and even more rude than Medic!"

One only called Lord Heart, and the others called him by their first names.

And the other, only called Heart's name, and the others only called numbers?

"It's just that even if this is the case, it's just a joke. Medic, you don't have the right to scold others like that!"

"What are you talking about, Brian!?"

"No no no! I didn't say anything!!"

Brain shook his head with a smirk, and subconsciously took out a handkerchief and began to wipe his sweat.

It wasn't until Medic looked away that he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he clicked on the tablet, looked at the date, his expression froze, and then he said with some emotion.

"It turns out that three years have passed..."

Then, he raised his hand and pushed his glasses, thinking with a calm expression.

[My memory data... seems a bit weird. ]
