Kamen Rider from the ancient times

In the end, the person who truly held a grudge about it was not Takumi Inui at all.

Because the power of time alone is not enough to affect the history of the entire Kamen Rider world, what can truly achieve this level is probably the power of "World Destroyer" belonging to Tsukasa Kadoya, which was stolen by Narutaki.

This greatly annoyed Tsukasa Kadoya.

If he hadn't been so reckless after discovering Narutaki's deliberately revealed whereabouts, perhaps the other party wouldn't have had this opportunity.

Although Kawahara surprisingly didn't condemn the trouble he caused this time, it's possible that the guy felt there wasn't enough time...

Tsukasa Kadoya suddenly fell silent.

Qian Qiao then said to him, "I won't dwell on the past forever, because I know that since the past can't be undone, I can't afford to waste the future!"

As he said this, he gripped the Faiz signal in his hand tightly, then looked up at the sky.

The azure sky was cloudless, vast and clear, making every ray of light and every breeze seem exceptionally gentle.

"This world is really great!"

Inui Takumi chuckled lightly, then his gaze fell on Tomari Shinnosuke, and he teased him in a joking tone.

"From now on, I'll probably stay in your world, is that okay?"

"Eh?"

Tomari Shinnosuke paused for a moment, then quickly nodded: "Sure! You're welcome!"

Qian Qiao's smile deepened.

Kadoya Tsukasa looked at Inui Takumi like this, lowered his head slightly and didn't say anything, until the latter raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder.

"If I can't let go of it, then I should do something meaningful first! I plan to travel to other parts of the world later."

Qian Qiao slowly walked up the grassy slope and came to the motor motorcycle parked by the roadside. He raised his hand and patted the front of the motorcycle.

Before becoming Kamen Rider Faiz, Takumi Inui was on a road trip with no destination. Now he plans to do it again, but his mindset is naturally completely different from before.

Today, it is filled with the hope and expectation for a better world.

—Traveling?

The word seemed to trigger a primal reaction in Tsukasa Kadoya. He glanced at his Machine Decade and his fingertips reached for the Rider Card Box hanging at his waist.

Tsukasa Kadoya's journey never ends.

In a moment, he thought of the last words Kawahara had said before he left.

—The Demon King?
What an interesting title! So, is this the journey he'll be embarking on—to a world with a "Demon King"?

So, is that guy in that world too?

Tsukasa Kadoya suddenly smiled, then looked at Takumi Inui and said, "This will be a wonderful new world for you, and my journey never ends in one place. So, until we meet again!"

He seemed to have found something he wanted to do. After saying that, he couldn't wait to get on the Machine Decade. He glanced at the somewhat stunned Tomari Shinnosuke next to him, then made a farewell gesture before twisting the throttle and speeding off.

boom--

The magenta motorcycle roared away and sped off into the distance.

"Huh? Huh??"

Shinnosuke Tomari stared in astonishment at the car disappearing into the distance at the end of the road: "Wait, did he just leave like that?"

More importantly, the last look that person gave him was inexplicably chilling, but before Shinnosuke could react, the other person had already decisively left.

Qian Qiao looked at them thoughtfully: "He probably already knows what he needs to do."

Shinnosuke Tomari hesitated, "But, is it really impossible for Mr. Kawahara to come back? Is it possible for him to be erased from history..."

Yuto Sakurai stroked his chin: "Logically speaking, if he had really been erased from the history of the knight world, we shouldn't remember him anymore, but it turns out we haven't forgotten him either."

After saying this, he shrugged at everyone with a knowing look on his face.

Shinnosuke Tomari was troubled by the fact that he had forgotten something: "But it was also because of..."

It was only because of the gear shifting vehicle that I remembered it.

Shijima suddenly shouted, "As long as we haven't forgotten, that's enough! In any case, we remember that we have his history!"

He looked at everyone with a serious expression and expectant eyes, and finally his gaze fell on Qian Qiao.

—Now, Takumi Inui is considered a special existence in this world because he relied on the signal Faiz to cross the distorted history and remain in the real world of Drive in a resurrected form.

Takumi Inui smiled at him: "That's right, because we all remember, just as we remember that Kamen Rider 3 once existed. This is history that will never change."

History will live on in their memories.

……

……

huh~~~
In a nostalgic city near Tokyo, the sky is high and the clouds are light, and the wind blows gently on the windmills all year round.

Narumi Office.

"Bang!"

The door was suddenly slammed open with great force.

Narumi Akiko, who was curled up on the sofa petting her cat, suddenly turned around in a daze, her mouth agape, watching a young man in a magenta shirt stride briskly toward the back door of the W base, then open the door and go inside in one smooth motion!
"boom!"

The gates to Base W were slammed shut again by the other side, as if they were right there in their own home.

It took Akiko Narumi a long time to come to her senses. The cat that had been holding her had already jumped away with its fur standing on end, leaving her still looking bewildered.

"Huh? What happened? Huh—??"

……

The fence panels of the W base, which was converted from a warehouse, creaked loudly underfoot.

Coincidentally, both Shotaro and Philip were analyzing cases at the base today. When Shotaro heard the noise, he turned around in confusion and saw a familiar person crossing the bridge and walking over.

"Huh? You are...Decade?" Shotaro pointed at him in surprise.

"It's me, Shotaro! It's been a long time! I'd like to ask Philip's Earth Library for a favor!" Tsukasa Kadoya said quickly.

"what?"

Shotaro's brain is working.

Philip, who was writing information on the writing pad, finished the last character, then put down the pen and turned to look at Tsukasa Kadoya with an unsurprised expression.

He raised his hand and rubbed his lower lip, saying, "Hmm... at this moment, you wouldn't be thinking of asking about Arcle, would you?"

Tsukasa Kadoya raised an eyebrow slightly: "You know?"

Then Philip pointed to Shotaro beside him: "Because Shotaro recently rushed over to me in a panic, saying he felt like he had forgotten something very important. He thought a clue in the case had been missed and was worried that the client might be in danger. But when we turned into W and rushed over..."

As Philip continued speaking, Shotaro's expression turned quite unpleasant, and he immediately waved his hand, trying to stop him.

Philip, seemingly oblivious, continued, "Shotaro just realized he'd simply forgotten about Arc's existence; there was no dopant causing any trouble at all, and he was even—"

"Okay, okay, that's enough!"

Unable to contain himself any longer, Shotaro lunged forward and covered Philip's mouth: "You don't need to go into so much detail about what happened!"

Philip shrugged innocently.

Because of Shotaro's forgetfulness, his memory became confused, and he mistakenly attributed Kuuga's near-explosion of the plaza to the incident involving the dopant, so he rushed over in a hurry.

Philip didn't understand at the time, but he respected the idea, since he wasn't the one who was supposed to transform.

As a result, after becoming Kamen Rider W, Shotaro Hidari regained his memories not long after.

Upon hearing this, Tsukasa Kadoya suddenly realized something: "So, Philip, your memory hasn't been affected?"

He remembered that Shinnosuke Tomari had also said that he had forgotten, but then remembered it after seeing something. This state sounded very similar to that of Shotaro Hidari.

Philip nodded: "I'm unaffected. I think it's the Earth Library's protection of my consciousness in this situation."

“So Shotaro remembered because…” Tsukasa Kadoya looked to the side again.

"I've transformed!" Philip seemed extremely interested in this as well, his eyes sparkling as he quickly said, "No! I think the more likely reason is that Shotaro and I have become one, which also means we've connected to the Earth Library!"

"I think I understand, so it is..."

Just as Tsukasa Kadoya was about to reply, Philip abruptly interrupted him, saying, "But his regaining his memories has nothing to do with the Earth Library."

Tsukasa Kadoya: "..."

Leaning against a large trash can, Shotaro said leisurely, "It's because of the Gaia Memory."

The black "Arcle Memory" that Philip had used to disappear long ago has now materialized in Shotaro's hands, a physical form that Philip was unable to create back then.

However, it has now been decisively locked away in a safe by Shotaro.

Tsukasa Kadoya's gaze shifted slightly as he listened: "Is it because of the power related to the Knights... I see, I think I understand now!"

It seems there's no longer a need to get answers from the Earth Library.

Perhaps Narutaki's spacetime power did indeed work, so these Kamen Riders had all forgotten about Kawahara once. However, because of the power medium related to the corresponding Rider that guy left behind, the existing history has brought everything back to normal.

This is really...

Tsukasa Kadoya clenched his fist.

So that guy just wouldn't give him the Knight card!
Tsukasa Kadoya took a deep breath and prepared to leave: "Then everything should be alright..."

Just as he stepped to the door, Tsukasa Kadoya seemed to remember something and suddenly stopped. Philip watched his back with curiosity.

"you know……"

Tsukasa Kadoya turned around: "The Demon King?"

"Demon...King...?"

Philip tilted his head and paused for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up!
……

shhhhh--

Located in the Earth Library in outer space, Philip looked around with great interest, hoping that this search would bring interesting results.

Keywords: Kamen Rider, Rider Power, Demon King!

The bookshelves in the space stirred up gusts of wind as they moved rapidly, and then gradually, all the bookshelves moved and disappeared.

Philip was taken aback when he saw this. Then he looked down and saw that the phantom of the Earth beneath his feet slowly split into another one.

Although no direct result was achieved, Philip vaguely understood something upon seeing this scene, and he opened his eyes from reality.

"How is it?" Tsukasa Kadoya asked immediately.

“The Earth Library can’t find the answer, not because there aren’t enough clues, but because the answer is ‘outside the world’,” Philip told him.

"Outside the world..."

Tsukasa Kadoya felt that the word was both strange and familiar.

Philip spread his hands and said, "It's probably—another Kamen Rider world outside our Kamen Rider world!"

Upon hearing this, Tsukasa Kadoya almost instinctively understood—that guy had been exiled again.
"Can I go over there?" he asked instinctively.

"Huh? Why are you asking me? Aren't you Decade?" Philip retorted.

"..."

After a pause, as if recalling the past, Tsukasa Kadoya's face lit up with his usual confident and proud smile.

"That's right! I am Decade! There's no world I can't reach if I want to go!"

……

……

"Damn it, I should have brought Zeronos with me earlier. That guy's time train might have come in handy... Where exactly is the Demon King's world?"

Tsukasa Kadoya lingered near an abandoned factory, looking quite annoyed.

In the correct historical record, this place, which served as the Shocker base, was just an abandoned, dusty, cobweb-covered, and deserted junkyard that had been abandoned for who knows how long.

Tsukasa Kadoya attempts to find clues to the Gate to the World here, and even finds an old-fashioned television set that can still play music in the original location of the time machine.

But this did nothing to achieve his goal.

"Bang!"

He kicked the television in frustration, and the cracked screen in the corner flashed with a bright light before turning into a static display.

Although this old-fashioned television can only display static, at least it can still be turned on.

Just then, Tsukasa Kadoya keenly sensed something and dodged to the side, and immediately a beam of light exploded where he had been!

"boom!"

Sparks flew and exploded on top of the television set.

Tsukasa Kadoya then looked warily in the direction from which the attack came, but upon seeing the person, his tense nerves relaxed listlessly.

"Haidong?"

"Hey~ Shi, long time no see, what are you doing here?"

Sitting atop the highest point of the junkyard, Daiki Kaito held the Diend Driver he had just fired in one hand, greeting him with a beaming smile.

Tsukasa Kadoya frowned and said, "How did you end up here? But I'm not in the mood to joke around with you right now, so don't bother me."

Hai Dong Da Shu shrugged and said, "I didn't originally intend to come looking for you, but Xia Mi Gua asked me to, so I had no choice but to come and check on you~"

"It's a Natsumikan!"

Kadoya Tsukasa first refuted the guy's mistaken nickname, then realized something and was somewhat surprised.

However, since he was taken away by the magic circle in the Wizard world last time, he hasn't returned to the Hikari Photo Studio for a long time, and the trip they promised to take together hasn't been fulfilled. It's understandable that Hikari Natsumi would be worried.

In this world, besides Narutaki, only Kaito Daiki can accurately locate Kadoya Tsukasa's position.

Are you looking for some kind of treasure?

Hai Dong Da Shu jumped to the ground and looked around the abandoned factory filled with garbage with great interest.

He had actually been observing Tsukasa Kadoya's actions here for a while. If there wasn't some very precious treasure here, Daiki Kaito didn't think the other party would be rummaging through trash.

Tsukasa Kadoya smirked, then grabbed the small, old-fashioned television set from the pile of trash and shoved it into Daiki Kaito's arms.

He then said seriously, "This is the treasure. I'm trying to figure out how to activate it. Once it's activated, we can obtain the treasure that allows us to travel through time!"

"A time-traveling treasure?"

Hai Dong Daishu looked at him with surprise, then at the television in his arms: "Can't you turn it on?"

When he was secretly observing just now, he did find that Tsukasa Kadoya had been lingering around the television for a long time, so Daiki Kaito was already 99% convinced.

"I can't open it."

Tsukasa Kadoya pursed his lips, dismissed Daiki Kaito, and then planned to continue searching the surrounding area for any remnants of the time machine.

At that moment, Kaito Daiki, who was carefully studying the treasure, curiously pressed the power switch on the television.

click -

The screen with the static crackled to life and lit up, followed by a melodious, ticking sound like a clock, accompanied by a passionate and uplifting chant.

"Celebrate! This is—"

Upon hearing the sound, Tsukasa Kadoya suddenly turned his head to look!

"The King of Time, who embodies the power of all knights, transcends time and space, and knows the past and the future—"

"Z-iO!"
