Bad luck plagues him, he refuses to become a Kamen Rider.

Author: Mitsuki

Summary:

[A coming-of-age story; the protagonist is neither invincible nor overpowered at the beginning.]

As a human living in Zeya City, Haruno Yuuki always felt that he was no different from others, except for a tiny bit of bad luck (including but not limited to flower pots falling from the sky and falling on his head, and vehicles occasionally going out of control and hitting him...).

Fortunately, he escaped all dangers and successfully came of age, landing a job at a barbecue restaurant with decent pay.

He thought his life would go smoothly from then on, but unexpectedly, even more terrifying events soon happened around him.

As various strange beings, including Grongi, Orphnochs, angels, and otherworldly beings, gradually emerge from beneath the water, murders occur one after another, and the Kamen Riders emerge to fight against them.

Yuuki, who was transported to another side of the world due to bad luck, faced the trusting gazes of many knights and the belts offered to him, and felt like crying: "I just wanted to live an ordinary life!"

He doesn't want to be a Kamen Rider!

Chapter 1 Someone committed a crime!

Zemei City

Summer nights are more bustling than at any other time of day, especially at the barbecue restaurant where Yuuki works.

"Yuuki, hurry up!"

"understood!"

The urging from Manatsu made Yuuki's hands move even faster. He quickly put the tray on the cart, responded, and then pushed the cart and ran off at a brisk pace!

The store is doing exceptionally well tonight, which means Yuuki needs to work even more efficiently.

"Your order!"

In just over ten seconds, Youxing arrived at the table where the food was ordered and quickly brought out the plates.

While serving the food, Yuuki glanced at the guests and noticed that they were students from a nearby school, who seemed to be having a gathering.

At that moment, they paid no attention to Yuuki, the waitress, and instead gathered together talking about something.

"Do you know about that 'night alley killer' who's been all over the news lately..."

Someone brought up the topic, and the ghost story quickly piqued the interest of the remaining people. Soon, the discussion grew louder, allowing Yuuki, who was standing nearby, to hear it.

"It is said that this ghost was tied to a tree in an alley before it died. Because the alley was too remote, no one heard its cries for help, and it starved to death there. So after it died, it decided to let others feel its pain equally!"

As soon as someone spoke up, another tall, thin student immediately chimed in: "I know too. I heard that people killed by it didn't even have bodies left, only some strange plants to indicate that they were killed by this ghost!"

Upon hearing this, Youxing paused for a moment, but quickly resumed his work. He swiftly served the remaining dishes and bowed slightly to the group, saying, "Guests, your dishes have all been served."

After giving the notification, he didn't listen to the rest of the story. He quickly pushed the food cart away from the area and hid in the kitchen, letting out a sigh of relief.

"Why are you telling ghost stories all of a sudden..."

As he was complaining, someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder, which made him shudder.

"Oh! Yuuki can be scared by ghost stories? That's so timid!"

"That story is obviously fake! There's no such a ridiculous story here. This is the real world. Ghosts and superpowers are all just fiction..."

But faced with Yuuki's resentful gaze, Manatsu's voice grew softer and softer as she heard the story and came specifically to mock him.

Because she forgot one thing: the person in front of her seemed to actually have some kind of superpower!

However, Yuuki would rather not have this superpower, because his superpower is that he is extremely unlucky.

He's so unlucky that even a simple trip could result in a flowerpot falling from the sky and hitting him on the head.

In fact, due to his unusually unlucky constitution, he has encountered real wanted criminals and murderers more than once!

Fortunately, each time he escaped unscathed, which allowed him to live to adulthood and be hired by Manatsu's mother, who was also the owner of the shop, to work there.

"Although Yuuki is a bit unlucky, I don't feel that he has any connection with this kind of legend that looks so fake."

"It can't be that some ghost is haunting Yuuki, which is why she's so unlucky, right?"

Manatsu playfully stuck out her tongue.

Having worked here for several months, Yuuki had long since accepted Manatsu's quirky personality. He shook his head helplessly, feeling somewhat melancholy.

"If I can really find out what the cause is, I will do everything I can to solve it!"

Yu Xing was fed up with this kind of life, having to live in constant fear every time he went out. He just wanted to live a peaceful and stable life.

"But speaking of which, Yuuki doesn't seem to have been so unlucky lately."

While Yuuki was feeling melancholy, Manatsu reviewed Yuuki's life over the past two weeks.

Previously, Yuuki's unlucky constitution caused a lot of trouble for the store, and she was also affected once or twice, but recently there seems to have been no accidents and everything has been very peaceful.

"Who could possibly know about such a strange thing?"

Yu Xing shook his head; he didn't know what was going on either.

But this calm did not bring him any sense of security; on the contrary, it brought him great panic.

After so many years of bad luck, can he just suddenly stop? Youxing found it hard to believe; he always felt that something big was brewing and waiting for him.

"Masatsu-chan, Yuuki-chan!"

Seeing that Yuuki's expression didn't look too good, Manatsu was about to comfort him when she heard her mother Miwako's voice.

"Hurry up and let's go! This is a busy time, and it'll be easy to get caught slacking off!"

Manatsu's thoughts were interrupted. She kept talking and running, quickly heading outside.

Watching Manatsu run away, Yuuki smiled and felt a little better.

He tidied up briefly and then got busy pushing the food cart.

............

When you get busy, time always flies by, and before you know it, it's late at night. There are very few people in the store. After cleaning up in the kitchen, Youxing is also ready to go home.

"Little Yuxing, be careful on your way back!"

At the store entrance, Manatsu's mother smiled and said goodbye to Yuuki, leading Manatsu through the store.

Yuuki nodded, ignoring Manatsu who was making a face, and said very politely, "Thank you, Miwako-san. See you tomorrow."

After saying that, he turned and quickly disappeared into the night.

"What a polite child, but he's just so unlucky."

Miwako watched Yuuki leave and sighed softly. She had naturally heard some things about Yuuki, but since she had chosen to take the child in, it meant that she didn't care about those things.

"Alright, Mom. We should go back now! Youxing is so capable, you don't need to worry about her at all."

Before Miwako could think anything more, Manatsu, grinning, took Miwako's hand in a coquettish manner.

"Ah."

She skillfully patted her daughter's head, and the two left in opposite directions.

Meanwhile, Yuuki, who had left from the other side, was now standing in front of an alley, looking very conflicted.

Although he didn't really believe in those ghost stories, ghosts might be fake, but stories don't necessarily have to be.

Many ghost stories are spread because people are actually doing things disguised as ghosts. With his luck, if that's the case, he'll most likely run into one.

"Although I'll get home ten minutes later if I don't take this alley, it's worth it."

Thinking to himself, he was about to turn and leave when he saw a person staggering out of the alley.

Yu Xing, with her sharp eyes, immediately recognized the person as the tall, thin student who had told ghost stories earlier.

"Help...please help me."

The tall, thin student saw someone outside the alley, clutched his chest, and immediately cried for help. A trail of blood was faintly visible beneath him.

This scene immediately reminded Yuxing of the previous story: someone was actually killing people under the guise of a ghost story!

Someone committed a crime!

"He was really holding back something big, damn it, I'm so unlucky!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Youxing turned around and prepared to run away. As for saving people...

What a joke!

He was just an unlucky passerby. If he didn't run away after encountering such a thug, he would probably have to go to hell with this guy tonight.

"Don't worry, buddy, I'll call someone to come rescue you right away!"

Yu Xing shouted as she ran further and further away in the eyes of the tall, thin students.

The tall, thin student's hope gradually turned to despair because he heard footsteps behind him, but they weren't human footsteps!

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

After running for about ten minutes, winding through various alleys, Youxing finally stopped in her tracks when she hid in a small alley.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, leaned against the wall to catch his breath, and occasionally peeked outside to observe. Seeing that no one was chasing him, his expression relaxed a bit.

"When it comes to escaping, no one can beat me. I should be safe now, right?"

Yuuki thought to herself, slowly took out her phone, and was about to call the Metropolitan Police Department.

Suddenly, his expression froze.

"Huffing and puffing... huffing and puffing..."

His heavy breathing hadn't stopped, even though he had clearly stopped panting long ago.

Yu Xing swallowed hard, carefully discerning the direction of the sound before slowly adjusting her phone screen.

The screen eventually came into direct view of his head, and through the reflection of the screen, a ferocious face peered out from the top of the wall, staring straight at him!

That's not human at all!

"My God!"
