Unable to pay off my debts, I had no choice but to become a Kamen Rider.

When Asano Yu got home, it was already one o'clock in the morning.

Because he missed the last bus and didn't want to spend the money, he chose to walk home and test his current physical fitness.

I walked for more than an hour without getting tired or out of breath, and for a while I was almost running.

So when he got home, he immediately took a picture of himself in the bathroom mirror.

[Kamen Rider: ???]

[Level: LV5 (Able to undertake breakthrough quests, please note...)]

Height: 192cm (adjustable)

Weight: 83kg (adaptive)

Punching power: 19.8t (with physical bonuses applied)

[Kicking Power: 45.5t (with physical bonuses applied)]

[Jumping ability: 45m (with physical bonuses applied)]

[Speed: 100m/2s~0.18s (with physical enhancements)]

Compared to the previous content, the information panel has undergone many changes. The first is the level increase. Asano Yu discovered that he has dealt with exactly four waves of incidents related to monsters so far, and his level has also increased to level five.

At the same time, his physical skills were also improved to some extent, but the values ​​applied to Asano Yu, who is human, could not be seen, which was a bit of a pity.

He recalled that he seemed to have withstood an attack from Wolf-shaped Orphnoch with his own body. At the time, he did not think he would lose, so he used his arm to catch the other's arm.

It seems that my physical abilities have now become strong enough to rival a level 5 monster?

After thinking for a moment, he immediately took off his shirt and took a picture of himself shirtless.

To be honest, there wasn't much difference in the muscles, because before becoming a Kamen Rider, or even before I transmigrated here, this body was already very strong due to years of heavy labor.

It seems that this is not reflected in her appearance.

Thankfully, Asano Yuu's appearance wouldn't change, so she changed into casual clothes and looked at her photo again through the viewfinder, noticing something odd—

A breakthrough quest has been added after the level.

There seem to be some precautions?

Asano Yu was wondering how to view the image, the camera seemed to have a mind of its own, skipping the "output as photo" button and directly ejecting a warm photograph from the card slot at the bottom—

Wow, so you have your own consciousness after all?

Asano Yu's camera wasn't an instant camera, but it did have the functions of one. Of course, he didn't know where such a small body got so much space.

In short, isn't Kamen Rider amazing?

The front of the photo is still blank, showing only the bathroom mirror and the bathroom in the mirror, but the back is covered with dense text.

The content is still the same values ​​seen through the viewfinder, but there's an extra long string of text:

[Level: LV5]

[Breakthrough missions are available]

[Note: The difficulty of breakthrough missions is based on your current level. Completing breakthrough missions will make you more noticeable to Kamen Riders and monsters, increasing the difficulty of battles and the rewards you receive.]

[Mission: Eliminate high-risk monsters (0/2); Obtain any Rider's driver (0/1)]

[Reward: 1 random Kamen Rider card]

What is a breakthrough mission? Does it mean raising the world level?

Holy crap! Original!

Asano Yu immediately applied his own online gaming experience to the context and quickly understood the meaning of the passage.

But the question is—what does it mean to be noticed by more Kamen Riders and monsters?

Are there any other Kamen Riders in this world?

There are indeed many strange people. Recently, there have been many disappearances, murders, and suicides in the news. If we say that these are all the work of strange people, it seems that we can make sense.

With the world in such a chaotic state, it would be a bit unreasonable not to have other Kamen Riders.

But why has Asano Yu never encountered it even once?

We already have Orphnoch, Bug, and Solu, so we should definitely have Kamen Rider too.

"From now on, let's act with the assumption that we might encounter Kamen Rider..."

As for the next two tasks, the first one is manageable, but what about the second one?

Although we don't know exactly what the high-risk monster is, if there are two monsters that have been identified, they are most likely Eren and Caesar, the two Orphnochs.

Caesar is a force to be reckoned with, and Eren craves the strength of Orphino, so they should be considered high-risk monsters.

As for "obtaining the driver for any Kamen Rider", can't I just go out and buy an official cartridge?

Or should I ask Hayami Mitsuki or Duanmu Jun for one?

And is the reward just Kamen Rider cards? I hope I can get a good prize.

Asano Yu left the bathroom and returned to her room, preparing to tidy up, when her phone suddenly buzzed on the low table. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was Hayami Mitsuki.

Good evening, Miss Hayami.

"Call me senior."

"Yes, Ms. Hayami."

"..."

Asano Yu could already guess Hayami Mitsuki's speechless expression.

To be honest, watching a beautiful woman frown is a kind of enjoyment. However, Asano Yu was not intentionally disgusting her, but rather doing so would make her think of him more.

There are two advantages to doing this: first, it avoids being labeled a sycophant by her and allows me to maintain a social distance that suits my own preferences; second, it makes it clear that I'm only staying by her side for the money.

Are you free this Friday night?

"I'm free, I'm free! Want a part-time job on set or to carry your things? If you need me to take your trash, that's no problem at all!"

Asano Yu naturally grabbed the notebook from the table and wrote down his plans for the weekend.

Last weekend, Hayami Mitsuki dragged her out to the mall for a shopping spree, and she ended up with several new outfits and tens of thousands of yen. Her reason was that Asano Yuu couldn't dress too badly on set, or she would embarrass her.

Asano Yu didn't know if this reason was true or false; he only knew that he was happy to have a rich woman spending money on him.

"I have a movie date scheduled for 11 p.m. this Friday. Come with me."

"receive!"

After speaking, Hayami Mitsuki hung up the phone decisively and then sent the showtime information via Line.

Friday, which is tomorrow, and the movie I'm watching is another romance movie...?

Is that impossible? Has this huge block of ice suddenly become intelligent?

While I was pondering this, Kirishima Chinatsu's LINE message popped up. It started with the typical Japanese greeting, followed by a bunch of thoughts about the day, then thanks, and finally a picture.

The picture is a selfie of the girl, and the hair clip given to her by Asano Yu is pinned in her hair.

She was still wearing the custom-made uniform of Independent Aoyama High School, and she was making faces at herself in the mirror.

All Asano Yu could do was save the image after reading it and then express his approval.

[Asano-kun goes to Aoyama Gakuin University, right? Could you tutor me?]

Soon, she sent another message, but this one was a bit too obvious, and Asano Yu didn't want to reply immediately.

Do you need me to teach you since you got perfect scores in all subjects? If you want to trick me into going on a date, just say so. Don't try to hide it.

I'll treat you to dinner.
