Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 116 Kondo Isami: I'm Back

"91?"

Junichi Shimura walked up from behind the researchers, looking at Kenzaki Kazuma's stats displayed on the screen, his eyes seemingly burning with fire.

Of course he knew about the ghost story.

They gained a deeper understanding of the true cause of the ghost incidents.

When the Kamen Rider Fusion Coefficient reaches 100, it will connect to the corresponding Rider World and open a spacetime tunnel to other dimensions.

The people involved in the ghost incident did not disappear; instead, they were pulled into the Knight timeline.

This is also why he took a liking to Kenzaki Kazuma.

Kenzaki Kazuma has incredible potential for growth. Although he's not as good as the Plum Knights right now, he'll eventually be able to raise his fusion coefficient to 100.

Once connected to the Blade universe, he can truly enter the world of knights, no longer just a temporary instance that existed briefly.

You can have face-to-face contact with managers.

"Not enough..."

"call!"

Urban area.

Kondo Isami was finally summoned back from school by Shimura Junichi, who immediately assigned him a combat mission: to bring the Plum Blossom Knights back to the research institute.

He was supposed to be the strongest knight, but he was just a copy. Even his belt and awakening device were imitations of his knight system. As for the core, the Ace of Clubs, it was completely incomparable to Cerberus.

The captain, he, and Konan possess the Knight System, which is truly the strongest.

It doesn't need any advanced forms; its base combat power is equivalent to King Mode.

"Give up, you can't escape!"

"Open up!"

Kondo Isami pushed up his glasses, calmly transformed into the green Cerberus Rider, and used the spear-shaped Awakening Device to stop the tormented boy.

Kamen Rider Lance (Lance the Long Spear)

It has almost the same form as Junichi Shimura's Glaive, except that the gold armor has turned green.

Since meeting Kuroko, he has been living in the shadows for the past few months, unable to sleep well, and has gradually begun to doubt his own strength.

I'm finally getting back into form.

Sure enough, he was still the genius knight he once was.

It's not that he's incapable, it's just that I, Hei Kong, am too powerful.

I really want Kaminari and his students to see this too.

The true power of Kamen Rider Lance...

Kondo Isami swung the Awakening Device spear, seemingly unaffected by the tomboy's struggles.

Having chosen to become a knight, there's no going back to a normal life.

To possess this power, one must always pay a price.

Ultimately, it's because the tomboy himself is incompetent.

"You've actually been controlled by the Rider System," Kondo Isami chuckled, watching the tomboy who had once again lost consciousness and transformed into the Beast Knight. "What a pathetic fellow. Let me help you alleviate your pain."

"Bang!"

Facing the same attack from the scepter-shaped Awakening Device, Kondo Isami was not afraid at all. He raised his hand to parry the attack, and at the same time, his body suddenly shook. He gripped the long spear Awakening Device and swept it horizontally, sending the scepter flying.

His fusion coefficient is 88, far lower than the tomboy's 95.

However, sometimes the fusion coefficient doesn't mean much and cannot determine the strength of the power. It can only mean that the tomboy is more likely to bring out the power of the Ace of Clubs.

Compared to Lance, who can rival or even surpass category K, what difference does it make if he is a fully-formed Ace of Clubs?

95 percent of 100 and 88 percent of 1000 are nothing more than that.

"A replica knight system dares to rebel against me? They're utterly fearless!"

Kondo Isami looked down at the tumbling, landing scrambled-to-the-ground Plum Blossom Knight, and pulled out a Stormhound card.

Skill Card, Powerful Impact.

Unlike regular cards, artificial cards do not require additional combinations; they directly incorporate different characteristics to form ultimate skill effects.

"Since you won't obediently come back with me, you'll have to suffer a bit."

Kondo Isami reversed his spear, preparing to swipe skill cards into the Awakening Device for some fun.

The captain only told him to capture the Plum Blossom Knight and bring him back, but didn't give any specific instructions.

It would be such a shame to end this trip so easily after all the effort we've put in.

"call!"

Kondo Isami comfortably swiped the skill card toward the Awakening Device, but the Plum Blossom Knight below suddenly beat him to it, quickly completing the swipe ahead of time, and a purple beam of light landed directly on the skill card in his hand.

"Um?"

Kondo Isami was stunned for a moment, and by the time he realized what was happening, a storm hound had already rushed out of the card and spit out a tornado storm at him.

What's going on?

"call--!"

A powerful gale suddenly struck, forcing Kondo Isami to abandon his Plum Blossom Knight and Stormhound and fight each other.

Perhaps because it happened so suddenly, he was no match for the Stormhound and was immediately tackled to the ground, even his spear awakening device was thrown aside.

"Whoosh!"

The Plum Blossom Knight below swayed and broke free of his transformation, revealing a tomboyish, petite figure.

Ignoring the disheveled Kondo Isami, the tomboy clutched his head in pain and staggered away from the scene.

Xia Chuan was right. It seemed that she could not get rid of the Plum Blossom Knight Belt. No matter what, it would appear by her side and tempt her to transform at every moment.

Her desire to become a knight ironically became the weapon of the Ace of Clubs.

There's no way we can win.

"Whoosh!"

In the alley, the tomboy fell to the ground. When he raised his head again, he suddenly saw Tiger Q's expressionless figure.

The same face, almost indistinguishable from the real thing, is like another version of her.

"illusion?"

……

A commercial plaza.

Hiroko Asami and Kazumi Takahashi quietly hid behind a row of GG shelves, watching a thin boy fiddling with a computer in the rest area as if they were spying on him.

"Is it him?"

After a period of intensive investigation, Hiroko Asami finally found clues to the Kalis incident.

None of the attacked knights had ever actually seen Kalis, and many ordinary people couldn't even describe what Kalis looked like, except for this boy.

The boy was the only one who said he saw Kalis attacking humans.

"It should be him," Kazumi Takahashi said, flipping through online information. "He was also the one who first posted online. His profile identifies him as a freelance writer. He became an internet celebrity because he filmed a car accident. Some people say that he deliberately caused the car accident."

"Is there any evidence?"

The more Hiroko Asami looked at the boy, the more suspicious she found him.

They have shifty eyes and look like they're up to no good.

"No," Kazumi Takahashi said, distressed. "Only the victim's girlfriend said he was involved. Anyway, he seems to really enjoy taking photos and uploading them online..."

Are you investigating me?

The boy suddenly smiled, turned around and looked directly at Hiroko Asami.

"You have a familiar scent about you, a feeling I hate."

Before Asami Hiroko and the other could react, the boy's gaze darkened, and an invisible force suddenly lifted Asami Hiroko into the air.

"Whoosh!"

"Huh? What's going on?"

A hint of panic appeared on Hiroko Asami's face, and she turned to the boy with a slight change in expression.

"Who exactly are you?"

"Category King," the boy chuckled, "the strongest undead creature."

"senior!"

Kazumi Takahashi stared in shock at Hiroko Asami, who was suspended in mid-air. Realizing there was no way to help, she hurriedly drew her gun and pointed it at the boy.

"Release the senior immediately!"

"Humans are very interesting."

The boy smiled, glanced around at the panicked crowd in the mall, and snapped his fingers lightly.

"Stop!"

An undead creature appeared beside the boy, emitting light that froze the surrounding space as the boy gave the command.

The time is fixed.

The mall seemed to be under a spell; everyone froze, and Hiroko Asami and her companion remained in a fixed pose, becoming "statues" along with the rest of the interior.

The 10 of Spades is a scarab beetle, an undead creature whose ability is to stop time.
