As a weirdo, I like being a Kamen Rider

Before he finished speaking, the ground beneath his feet shook violently, and he charged forward with a whistling wind, his giant claws carrying the force to tear through iron, aiming head-on at Wu Yan's chest.

With a flap of his wings, Kirihiko instantly shifted several meters to the side. But just as he dodged the direct attack, Kitasaki's arm armor swept towards him with a whoosh. Kirihiko raised his arm to block, the exoskeleton of his forearm colliding with the arm armor, producing a piercing metallic scraping sound.

"Well--"

With a muffled groan, he was thrown backward five or six meters by the immense force, carving a deep furrow in the ground.

The power was greater than expected.

Kirihiko understood. The butterfly-shaped Orphnoch excelled in speed and agility, but Kitasaki's Demon form was a perfect blend of offense and defense. Its thick shell was almost immune to light attacks, and its brute force could overwhelm close combat. If he fought purely in Orphnoch form, he was doomed to lose.

"Is that all you've got?" Kitasaki tilted his head, a hint of disappointment in his voice, his claws scraping against the carapace beside him with a harsh squeak. "That's so boring."

As he spoke, he bowed again to gather his strength, and the pebbles beneath his feet trembled slightly under the pressure of his invisible aura. This time, it was a collision that would determine the victor directly.

Chapter 208 Dragon Orpheus VS Bursting Caesar

As Kitasaki returned, the gray patterns around Kirihiko receded like water, revealing his true form. He stood still, his right hand reaching inside his suit jacket, and when he pulled it out, an orange-yellow belt was now in his palm.

"Hmm?" Kitasaki raised an eyebrow, but his momentum didn't diminish in the slightest.

Takuma on the roof looked puzzled: "That's the Kaixa belt?! Shouldn't that be with Kusaka Masato?"

Amidst the roar, Kirihiko raised his hand and fastened his belt around his waist.

Photon blood spread along the tubes, and black and yellow armor covered his entire body.

"The Knight System?" Kitasaki's charge came to an abrupt halt. He stopped a few meters in front of Kirihiko, the disappointment on his baby face vanishing, replaced by excitement. His claws rubbed together with a crackling sound. "Knight Belt, it seems you're quite interesting after all!"

"I just feel that the power of the Orphnoch alone isn't enough to deal with Mr. Kitasaki," Kirihiko's voice came through the armor. He fastened the explosive components to his chest.

He reached out and pulled out his phone from his belt, then entered 913 three times in a row.

boom--

A blinding golden light suddenly burst out from the gaps in the armor, and the black and yellow base armor crumbled inch by inch, while a thicker matte black battle armor was rapidly pieced together.

On the roof of the car, Zhuomo was so startled that he took a half step back. He opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word for a long time.

"What is that?" He'd seen Kamen Rider belts before, even when Kirihiko transformed into Kamen Rider Kaixa, he was just struggling futilely against Kitasaki. But this enhanced form, overflowing with golden photon energy, was something he'd never seen before.

As Saeko Kageyama gazed at the golden figure below, her curiosity surged, and a meaningful smile unconsciously crept onto her lips.

“I see…” she murmured. “No wonder the new president was so confident that he could become a member of Clover.”

On the ground, Kitazaki stared at Caesar's Burst form, his whole body trembling slightly with excitement. His giant claws cracked.

"That's amazing...that's amazing!" He laughed incoherently, his voice almost overflowing with madness. "Now that's what I need to take seriously!"

With a roar, Kitasaki stomped his foot, and the ground cracked open with spiderweb-like patterns. He transformed into a silver-gray cannon, charging forward with the force to split mountains and shatter rocks, the air itself being torn apart by the brutal impact with a piercing shriek.

Wu Yan stood still, his golden photon wings fluttering gently behind him.

The next second, golden light pierced the sky.

His figure vanished from the spot, moving so fast that only a fleeting golden streak remained. Kitasaki's charge slammed into empty air, his massive claws digging into the metal of the abandoned carriage, creating a huge dent, and the entire carriage shook violently.

"Where is he?!" Kitasaki pulled the giant claw out of the metal sheet.

“Up there.” Kirihiko’s voice came from above.

He hovered in mid-air, his photon wings outstretched to support him, the Caesar Blade in his hand already brimming with dazzling golden light. He swooped down, the photon energy on the blade twisting into a high-speed spinning golden diamond, carrying the power to incinerate everything, and slashed straight at the carapace on Kitazaki's back.

Kitasaki reacted extremely quickly, turning around abruptly and crossing his arms to protect his chest.

clang--!!

The deafening clang of metal against metal shook the entire parking lot. The shockwave rippled through the ground, scattering withered grass and sending dust and debris flying everywhere.

Kitasaki's feet sank deep into the ground, sliding a full two meters before regaining his balance. He looked down at his crossed forearms, where a deep burn mark was clearly visible on the seemingly indestructible armor.

"It actually... broke through my defenses?"

He spoke in a low voice, slowly raising his head. The smile vanished from the doll's face, replaced only by extreme excitement and ferocity.

"This is getting more and more interesting!"

Before he finished speaking, he charged forward again. His giant claws swept across, unleashing the brute force of his demon form to its fullest extent, each strike accompanied by a whistling sound as it cut through the air. Meanwhile, Wu Yan's Burst Form moved with absolute speed, his golden figure weaving through the silver-gray fist winds. His photon wings would sometimes unfold to accelerate, and sometimes retract into blades to counterattack. The golden light and silver-gray constantly collided, erupting in deafening roars.

The two people on the roof of the car were already stunned.

Zhuomo swallowed hard. He had originally thought that Wuyan would definitely lose, but now this evenly matched battle, in which Wuyan even had a slight advantage, completely overturned his understanding.

"What exactly is that form?" he murmured to himself.

Saeko gently swirled the remaining half-glass of wine, her gaze following the golden figure, and slowly said, "Who knows? But one thing is certain: our new member is much more powerful than we imagined."

In the arena, the fierce battle raged. Kitasaki, relying on its armor, withstood several luminous blades, finally seizing an opening and slamming its claws hard into Caesar's shoulder armor.

Bang!

Kirihiko was sent flying sideways by the impact. He spun around in the air and used his photon wings to dissipate the force, landing steadily on the ground.

“Not bad power.” He said calmly, raising his hand to adjust the Caesar Blade. “However, it’s about time to end this.”

Kitasaki, panting heavily, said, "The end? You think you've already won?!"

Wu Yan did not answer. He raised his hand, placed the Caesar Blade in front of his chest, and inserted the ultimate command. Golden photon energy gathered like a tide. The photon wings on his back fully unfolded, and the golden light around him reached its peak.

Kitasaki sensed the threat and suddenly arched his back, his armor tightening layer by layer. He was going to take the attack head-on.

"Come on!!" he roared as he charged out.

Wu Yan leaped into the air, and golden energy twisted into a spiral-shaped light diamond.

"KAIXA IMPACT!"

Golden streaks of light collided violently with the silver-gray heavy cannons in the center of the arena.

The blinding light engulfed everything, and a huge shockwave exploded in a ring, tearing the metal sheets of the abandoned carriages apart with a loud clatter, sending dust and gravel flying into the sky.

On the roof of the car, Saeko raised her hand to shield herself from the oncoming gust of wind, squinting as she looked towards the center of the light. Takuma's heart was also pounding.

The outcome hinges on this single strike.

Keitaro was driving the laundry shop's small truck, with Saya in the passenger seat and the trunk piled high with clothes waiting to be delivered.

He gripped the steering wheel, chattering incessantly, boasting about all the good deeds he had done, such as taking in homeless people like Qiao and helping his neighbors solve their problems. He wanted to bring up every little thing he had ever done to show off.

Saya leaned against the car window, her mind not on the casual conversation at all, only occasionally letting out a soft "hmm" to perfunctorily agree.

The car was stopped at the intersection waiting for the red light. Just as Keitaro was about to continue speaking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Nagata Yuka on the crosswalk out of the corner of his eye. His heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly lowered his head, wishing he could bury his face in the steering wheel, afraid that she would recognize him.

Yuka had already noticed the familiar laundry truck. She walked straight to the window, gave the embarrassed Keitaro a half-smile, and said nothing more. As she turned to cross the street, she turned back and gave the truck a meaningful smile, making Keitaro's ears burn and so embarrassed that he wished he could disappear into the ground.

When the light turned green, Keitaro quickly stepped on the gas and drove away, finally escaping the awkward situation.

But the truck hadn't gone far when a man in a suit rode a bicycle across the middle of the road, stopping it in its tracks.

Keitaro, filled with doubt, pushed open the car door and stepped forward to ask what was going on, but the other party completely ignored him, his gaze fixed on Saya in the passenger seat, and said in a low voice: "The Delta belt is in your hands, isn't it? This belt belongs to Smart Brain. Now, please hand it over."

The newcomer was none other than Murakami Kyoji. After persuading Kitasaki to deal with Lin Chen, he planned to seize the third knight's belt first, adding another layer of leverage to his scheme.

Before he finished speaking, gray patterns appeared all over the village, transforming into a slender rose, Orphnoch.

Startled, Keitaro quickly retreated to the car, urging Saya to run away while frantically pulling out his phone to call Inui for help. But Rose Orpheus slowly approached, giving the two no chance to escape.

Saya pushed open the car door, took out the Delta belt from her backpack, and quickly fastened it around her waist.

She raised her hand and took out the Delta transformation device, which resembled a pistol handle, and placed it near her mouth.

"Transform!"

The device clearly identifies the voiceprint, and an electronic sound is emitted.

"STANDING BY"

She flipped her wrist and inserted it into the slot of the Delta Mover on the right side of her belt.

COMPLETE

Silvery-white photon blood gushed from the core of the belt, rushing through the three-pronged photon tubes to the rest of the body.

The jet-black base layer first forms on the skin's surface, while the bright silver energy flow outlines the iconic inverted Δ pattern on the front of the torso, with three branching lines extending from the chest to the waist, abdomen, and shoulders.

The silver light subsided, and Kamen Rider Delta stood still. The black and silver armor had sharp, defined lines.

After transforming, Saya immediately raised her hand and pulled out the Delta Phone from her waist, combining it with the Delta Mover to form a gun, and fired directly at Rose Orpheus in front of her.

Dense silver light bullets shot out, carrying scorching heat waves as they hurtled towards Rose Orphnoch.

Murakami Kyoji, transformed into the rose Orpheus, remained motionless, a faint blue halo resembling a bouquet of roses emanating from his forehead, and an invisible psychic field quietly spread out in front of him.

The moment all the light projectiles hit the force field, they all veered off course, grazing his side and crashing into the road behind him, creating a series of craters of varying depths.

"The Delta System is indeed very powerful." A deep voice came out, carrying undisguised contempt. "It's just a pity that it can't unleash its full power in your hands."

As soon as he finished speaking, the blue light on his forehead suddenly intensified. Large, shimmering white rose petals appeared out of thin air, tiny sparks dancing at their edges, sweeping towards Saya like a blizzard.

Saya's heart tightened, and she hurriedly raised her arm to shield herself. Petals crashed into the armor one after another, exploding with deafening roars, and the enormous impact forced her to retreat repeatedly.

She gritted her teeth, trying to steady herself and continue firing, but the moment her fingertip touched the trigger, the figure in front of her vanished abruptly, and Rose Orpheus appeared to her side and behind. Saya turned around hastily, but it was already too late.

A whip of light appeared in the opponent's hand and instantly wrapped tightly around her right wrist, which was holding a gun.

The light whip tightened, causing the metal armor to creak under the strain. Saya endured the pain and swung her left fist at her opponent's face, but her punch landed awkwardly and stiffly. Murakami easily dodged to the side, and at the same time, he lightly raised his left hand, unleashing a powerful burst of telekinesis that struck Delta's chest.

A muffled thud exploded, and Saya felt her chest churning. She felt as if she'd been hit by a speeding truck, flying backward and crashing heavily into the laundry truck's cargo bed. A large dent instantly appeared in the thick sheet metal, the truck shook violently, and clothes scattered all over the floor from the trunk.

She struggled to her feet, bracing herself against the car body. Knowing she was no match for him in close combat, she could only create distance and pull the trigger again at the white figure in front of her.

The silver light bullet roared out again, but it was still deflected layer by layer by an invisible force field half a meter away from the opponent.

She pulled back the trigger, took the command card from her belt, and inserted it into the Delta pistol. A solid beam of light shot out, aimed straight at Rose Orpheus's chest. Murakami Kyoji neither dodged nor evaded; a faint blue light flashed on his forehead, and a psychic field solidified into a tangible light shield in front of him. However, the marked beam of light did not dissipate upon impact with the force field. Instead, it spread along the surface of the force field, expanding into a purple drill-like shape at his chest.

"Finally, you've brought out something real." Murakami Kyoji chuckled, his body surrounded by shimmering white petals that floated gently, showing no intention of dodging at all.

Saya no longer hesitated. Her silver photon blood accelerated its flow, frantically converging along the armor patterns towards her right leg. A dazzling silver light shone from her toes as she slammed her foot into the cracked pavement, unleashing her full 38-meter jumping power. Her body shot into the sky like a silver arrow, and then, with a twist of her waist, she kicked directly at Rose Orpheus.

Just before the kick was about to touch his body, Murakami Kyoji's figure suddenly dispersed.

The solid kick only pierced through the countless rose petals falling from the sky.

Saya slammed one knee into the sunken ground, barely regaining her balance before rising to her feet. She swept her gaze across the rain of falling petals, but couldn't find a trace of her. It was as if the other person had completely melted into the petals, leaving not even a trace of their presence.

She gripped the Delta Mover tightly, slowly turning her body, her back taut like a fully drawn bow. The surroundings were eerily quiet, save for the soft rustling of petals falling to the ground, which only heightened the sense of unease to its peak.
