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

Guihu used his own life to hold off the aliens and buy him crucial time.

If it weren't for Guihu, he would definitely be dead, right?

What was I expecting back then? I must have been hoping someone would fall from the sky and save me, right?

There's also Godai, Philip, Shotaro...

After a long silence, Yuuki grinned and turned to Ichijo Rin, giving her a thumbs up: "Well, of course I'll save her."

Saving lives is his responsibility, and he has no choice but to do so; otherwise, he would be letting down the sacrifices of others!

Hearing Yuuki's reply, Rin Ichijo smiled as well: "It seems we'll definitely be good friends."

Dangdang! ! !

Just then, Rin's phone went off with an alarm. Yuuki turned his head and noticed that the time was already 10:07.

He looked at Ichijo Rin again, only to find that Ichijo Rin's expression had become extremely pale.

"You felt it?"

Yuuki asked, and Rin Ichijo gritted her teeth and squeezed out a single word: "Mm."

The next second, all the electronic devices in the entire apartment flashed simultaneously.

The phone screen briefly lit up and then went out, the refrigerator compressor made a short, strange noise, and the ceiling light bulb swayed slightly.

But these were only momentary anomalies; the real change occurred inside Rin's body.

He suddenly groaned, his body lurched forward, and he barely managed to stand by bracing himself against the windowsill.

Cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and his breathing suddenly became rapid and heavy, as if someone had lit a fire in his chest.

"cold!"

Yuuki reached out to help him, but Rin grabbed her wrist with surprising force.

Fortunately, Yuuki's body was extraordinary; despite Rin's immense force, his body was not damaged in the slightest.

Under Yuuki's gaze, Rin's body began to change, as if time had reversed on him, eventually returning to the form Yuuki was familiar with.

"What exactly happened?"

Yuuki embraced Ichijou Rin, who recovered from her dizziness after a moment.

Upon recovering, he first exclaimed with delight, "Yoo-suk!" and then quickly looked out the window.

"That day is coming again!"

Rin's words carried a hint of seriousness, and Yuuki followed him to look out the window.

The sky remained dark, and the stars continued to twinkle, as if nothing had changed.

“Every Monday at 10:07, I would discover strange changes in the city.”

Before Yuuki could even ask, Rin Ichijo eagerly began recounting the information she knew.

"In the next half hour, I will see the truth of how this city has become like this."

As Rin continued her narration, the dark sky suddenly brightened in Yuuki's eyes.

Not far above the two, a time tunnel opened, and a tram suddenly rushed out of it.

But Yuuki immediately recognized that the tram was broken in half!

The tram's exterior instantly transported Yuuki's memories back to the Desert of Time, the place where he first met Momotaros.

That carriage looks exactly like this train.

"Could it be..."

To Yu Xing's disbelief, another tram rushed out of the time tunnel and crashed into the tram in front of it.

Upon impact, both trams lost their balance in mid-air and plummeted downwards in flames.

"My grass!"

Seeing that the two large vehicles were about to land on their heads, Yuuki immediately tried to pull Ichijo Rin away, but Ichijo Rin was not afraid at all.

The deafening crash of the two trams colliding swept across most of the city, and the shockwave shattered the entire neighborhood where the two lived, but Yuuki and Rin Ichijo were unharmed.

“We are merely observers and are not actually involved in this time period.”

Rin Ichijo, who had regained his memories, looked somewhat tired. He had experienced this scene too many times and seen too many people die.

Upon learning the truth, Yuuki squinted at the crash site, where flames soared into the sky and smoke billowed.

Amidst the thick smoke, two figures rose from the ruins one after the other. The dark red Alien Electric King was surrounded by an ominous dark light, while the other figure, with yellow and silver stripes, staggered to prop himself up. Cracks spread across his armor like a spider web, as if it would completely collapse if it took another hit.

"Is that Den-O?"

Yu Xing gazed into the distance and spoke softly.

He had never seen Den-O before; this was his first time meeting him, but he recognized him instantly.

Rin Ichijo stood beside him, her brows furrowed: "Soon that one will be defeated, and then the city will be cleansed."

Upon hearing Rin's words, Yuuki's heart sank.

He had already witnessed W's death, and if Den-O were to die this time, they would lose two of their vital forces!

But now... Yu Xing looked up and saw that the two of them were standing in mid-air, like gods high above, but unable to interfere with the battle below in the slightest.

In just a short while, True Den-O was forced to retreat under Another Den-O's onslaught.

"He can't hold on much longer."

Looking at the situation below, Rin said in a low voice.

As expected, no sooner had Rin finished speaking than True Den-O was kicked into the still-burning commercial district by Another Den-O and disappeared.

Then, the sky suddenly changed color, and a white light swept across the entire city.

On the street, pedestrians who had been fleeing in terror suddenly stopped, their eyes becoming empty and blank. Then, as if nothing had happened, they turned and continued walking in their respective directions. Shattered glass, collapsed walls, burning vehicles—everything, shrouded in a white mist of light, began to slowly recede, as if time itself were going backward.

"It's all about to end, and soon I'll lose my memory too."

Seeing the surroundings begin to change, Rin quickly spoke to Yuuki.

"Now that you're here, I'll leave the rest to you!"

Yuuki arrived safely, and Rin Ichijo no longer needed to expend energy constantly relaying messages outwards.

After a relieved smile, his eyes rolled back and he lost consciousness.

Dangdang! ! !

The phone rang again, and Yu-Hsing blinked to find herself still standing by the apartment window.

He turned around, and the phone that was ringing was still Lin's. He looked up again and found that exactly fifteen minutes had passed.

Chapter 172 Commercial District

"hiss--"

After a brief moment of confusion, Rin Ichijo scrambled to his feet, clutching his head. He shook his head, finally regaining some clarity.

"how is the situation?"

Everything around seemed unchanged. After looking around, Rin finally fixed her gaze on Yuuki.

"I think the situation is not very optimistic."

Thinking about everything that had just happened, Youxing took a glass of water and drank it down in one gulp.

"Could you elaborate?"

Rin coughed twice and collapsed onto the sofa, unwilling to move.

Each time he lost consciousness, he felt as if his body had gone through a major battle.

Yuuki didn't hide anything and quickly told Ichijo Rin everything she had seen.

After hearing the whole story, Rin Ichijo had a headache. He never imagined that the entire city would face such a crisis!

"If we want to solve the problems here, we might have to go back to the time when you first arrived."

At that time, nothing had started yet, and the two had plenty of time to resolve the problems brought about by the two Electric Kings.

How should we get there?

Rin asked, and Yuuki pointed to himself.

"The Otherworldly Gods can travel through time periods through their memories, and I can go to that time period right now."

"But I don't have that memory in my mind now."

Rin looked a little confused, but Yuuki wasn't worried at all: "You don't have it now, but you'll have it at 10:07 every week, won't you?"

Yuuki's words made Rin Ichijo suddenly realize something. He smiled wryly and patted his head, "It seems I am indeed a little out of it right now."

"You get some rest, I'm going to check out that commercial area."

As dusk approached, Yuuki decided to investigate alone, without bringing Rin along.

Rin looked up slightly, and through the window, she could see the corner of the business district.

According to Yuuki's description, the two trams crashed into that commercial area.

"I'll go too."

As soon as he finished speaking, Youxing glared at him and said, "Go to hell."

"Given your current condition, you'd better just stay home and rest!"

Yuuki forcibly pressed Ichijo Rin down onto the sofa, and Rin, who was being held down, could only blink.

"You're just like me right now, extremely weak. If you can go, why can't I?"

Faced with Rin's questioning, Yuuki increased the pressure on his hand slightly.

"Although I am weak, I am still a monster at heart, and it won't be so easy to kill me."

More importantly, Yuuki is not confident that he can protect Rin Ichijo in battle.

"Don't joke around, this city is too ordinary, there's no way to deal with weirdos at all."
