Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 138 Cycles and Changes

"Again?"

The world regressed, and when Xia Chuan regained consciousness, he found himself back in the beginning of time.

The same shopping mall, the same passersby, and Shinji Kido waving and running towards them...

That's outrageous.

Will this lead to endless restarts?

Kanzaki Shiro, who acts like a game administrator, is utterly shameless.

It's teleportation, it's time travel, and it has three survival enhancement cards... all that's missing is complete invincibility.

Without him, Odin could have easily dealt with the remaining knights.

"Found the location, Kaminaga-senpai!"

Shinji Kido came running over, slightly out of breath, but surprisingly he didn't fall this time, and naturally didn't cause any trouble in the shop.

Not the same.

Why?

Natsukawa suppressed his doubts and followed Shinji Kido into Koichi Sakakibara's rented apartment, just like before.

There was no trace of the Peerless Dragon; the Mirror World could only vaguely sense the movements of the spider monster.

Things have really changed.

What exactly did Shiro Kanzaki do?

Xia Chuan frowned and looked around, noticing the cold-faced man and the short-haired woman who were stalking him on the roadside.

Kamen Rider Knight, Ren Akiyama, and Shiro Kanzaki's sister, Yui Kanzaki.

They had followed and spied on him the previous two times, but this time their eyes were fixed on Shinji Kido, completely ignoring his presence.

Is it...

"This is a real headache. The police are completely unreliable, and we can't collect the rent. Please help us."

The apartment manager opened the door for them as before, and after Xia Chuan and the other person entered the room, he closed the door behind them and left.

Xia Chuan quickly scanned the room and immediately noticed the huge difference.

The newspapers that had been covering the mirrors were gone, and the initial card case was nowhere to be found; only shards of glass were scattered on the floor.

In a daze, you can see a man carrying a chair, smashing glass everywhere, and finally screaming as he is dragged into the mirror world by a spider monster wandering in the mirror and devoured.

"call!"

Natsukawa silently looked at Shinji Kido, whose expression was heavy and whose fingers were tightly clenched.

Sure enough, the source of the change was Shinji Kido.

This time, Shinji Kido seems to have become a Kamen Rider, and it's very likely that he's Ryuki.

Is this how Kanzaki Shiro responded?

Indeed, his continued existence as a knight would make the other party very uncomfortable.

To gain new life is not merely about becoming the final victor; the knightly battle itself is a process of gathering desire and life force.

Otherwise, Odin could have simply hunted down all the knights instead of waiting for them to fight each other and grow stronger.

His presence is tantamount to flipping the table.

The difference in strength was too great, eliminating the need for the collection process altogether; even Odin couldn't suppress it...

This could very well lead Shiro Kanzaki to label him a "saboteur".

Xia Chuan silently walked to the balcony and looked down at Kanzaki Yui on the street below.

Is this the only solution we can find by working through this girl?

Kanzaki Yui was the true creator of the Mirror World, but she also accidentally entered the Mirror World and lost her life because of it.

She is still alive now because of the mirror world, Kanzaki Yui. If she cannot be given a new life, she will completely disappear from reality on her 20th birthday.

Only Yui Kanzaki can stop Shirou Kanzaki...

But what can he do if he's not good at interpersonal communication?

Xia Chuan felt his headache getting worse.

He wasn't worried about the knights; the problem now was that it seemed impossible to clear the game through combat alone.

"Buzz!"

As the surrounding sounds of howling filled the air, Shinji Kido's expression changed again, and he hurriedly called out to Natsukawa on the balcony outside.

"Senior, I have something to attend to. You should go back first!"

Without waiting for Xia Chuan's response, he hurriedly ran out the door. When Xia Chuan turned around, he only vaguely saw a flash of light outside, and then there was no sound at all.

This kid...

Xia Chuan turned his gaze to the Mirror World and, sure enough, saw the figure of the Dragon Knight riding a fully-covered motorcycle as it passed by.

Compared to other knights with all sorts of desires, Shinji Kido, who fights to save people, is as rare and precious as a wild panda.

I wonder what will happen when I get caught up in the Knights' War this time.

After glancing at Akiyama Ren and the other person who were also leaving below, Natsukawa shook his head and decided to return to the company first.

Memories from before the time restart can only be retained for one day. We need to find a way to prevent this from causing us to fall into a vicious cycle.

This world has never been successfully restarted by Kanzaki Shirou, because his sister resists sacrificing others to save him, and it has been restarted countless times.

It's obvious that this will continue to repeat itself in the future, until Shiro Kanzaki eventually breaks down and gives up.

"Damn it, where did Shinji go at a time like this?"

ORE Newspaper.

Natsukawa closed his eyes to rest amidst the tense atmosphere of being urged to finish his manuscript, while only the president of the company, Okubo, was overwhelmed with worry.

"The truth behind the unexplained disappearances... Kaminaga, how's it going on your end? So many people have gone missing this month, and we still can't find any connection."

"There are still no results."

Xia Chuan looked out the window.

The Ryuki's combat ability is decent. Even though Shinji Kido isn't particularly skilled in combat, dealing with that spider monster shouldn't be a problem.

The real trouble will begin in a few days with the Knights' War.

"Kaminaga?"

Kazumi Takahashi returned to her office carrying a pile of documents. Upon seeing Natsukawa, she loosened her grip once more, and Natsukawa steadily caught the documents as they fell.

"It really is you!"

"What a coincidence."

Xia Chuan was already used to this scene. After returning the documents to Takahashi Kazumi, he turned and walked towards the tea room.

Many people in this world are accidentally drawn into this spacetime; not everyone has a time machine like him, allowing them to exit and return to this world at any time.

Kazumi Takahashi is like that.

If left unattended, even if Takahashi survives, returning to his original world will be a pipe dream.

Xia Chuan pondered as he poured water.

and.

Having finally made it to the world of "Dragon Rider," we can't just leave looking dejected.

"What are you doing here, Kaminaga-senpai?" Takahashi Kazumi followed him into the break room. "Didn't Hiroko-senpai warn you?"

"They suddenly appeared while I was using the restroom."

"Huh?"

"Be careful for the next few days, and it's best not to wander around," Xia Chuan reminded again. "If you die here, you're really dead."

He had already experienced the chaos of the next few days; the danger wasn't just the mirror monster, but also humans and knights.

Those knights were clearly from this world; they were ruthless in killing, making it far more chaotic than the original "Dragon Knight".

Without explaining much to Takahashi Kazumi, Natsukawa returned to his seat and continued to rest with his eyes closed, constantly thinking about how to break the deadlock.

As for Kanzaki Yui, we don't know what to do yet.

If we make Kanzaki Shiro completely lose hope, perhaps it will cause him to break down?

The key is how to deal with Odin.

The interface in this world is very weak; it seems that only one Knight card can be used.

That's fine, one card is more than enough.

The problem is that the knight clones cannot fight in the Mirror World.

If Kalis were to use time stop in the real world, would it affect the Mirror World?
