I am Kamen Rider who reverses dimensions

"........."

Upon hearing this, the Ursus guards fell silent instantly. Then, the three of them charged forward like the wind, pressing down on Yuanxiang. Black shadows and golden light clashed in an instant, and the dull sounds of flesh colliding were like firecrackers exploding continuously. Finally, Yuanxiang grabbed the arm that was hitting him from the side, used it as leverage, and kicked the guard in front of him in the chest. After using the leverage again, he shouted and pulled the arm in his hand, swinging it up and slamming it hard against the guard who wanted to attack from behind.

But just as he was about to pursue the two guards, the leading guard who had been kicked away regained his balance, drew his sword, and slashed at the boy. Yuanxiang had no choice but to stop and step aside. The battlefield, which had been locked in a stalemate, suddenly became clear. Yuanxiang's footprints were visible on all three guards, and his clothes were torn in several places. However, neither side suffered any real damage.

Hiss... Just who is this guy?

Ursus Guard couldn't help but exhale. Although the young man hadn't gained much of an advantage in the battle just now, he could still make a name for himself in Ursus with this achievement. Yet, he had never heard of such a person before. Where did the Daughter of Kosiché recruit such a warrior?

"By the way, are you talking to Talulah, or to Koschei inside her?"

Suddenly, Yuanxiang stood up, dusted off his sleeves, and looked at the leading guard, saying softly:

"If you're talking to that poisonous snake, then unfortunately, I've already eaten it."

To the astonishment of the Ursus guards, Genshou took out a blank memory cell, retrieved the crazed Snake Shadow Curse from his malevolent thoughts, placed it inside, waved it at them, and said with a smile:

"It's surprisingly delicious! Now I'm really curious, what would it taste like to you?"

!!!

Upon hearing this, the Ursus guards were shocked. They hadn't expected the young man before them to possess such terrifying abilities... no, he was...

The leader of the Ursus guards noticed the unusual air movement. Recalling Genshou's inexplicable self-destruction, he immediately realized that this was merely a diversionary tactic. The real killing blow had already descended from the sky. A deafening wind hammer swept across the entire forest. Genshou calmly waved his sleeve, dispersing the dust in front of him. He then saw a dark mist surrounding the Ursus guards. The mist seemed like some kind of barrier, isolating them from reality. The wind pressure had not harmed them in the slightest.

Tsk, looks like I'll have to transform to finish this fight.

Genji, who didn't want to exacerbate his fatigue by using the Lost Driver, placed his hand on the driver and pushed it outward. With an exciting sound effect, the equally black Kamen Rider appeared in front of Ursus's inner guard. At this moment, there were no extra words, and the deathly silence awaited the moment of explosion.

'飒'

Suddenly, Gensou's figure vanished from the spot like a ghost. At the same time, Ursus's inner guards also took action. With a clench of their hands, black energy with a radius of about two meters suddenly burst forth from a distance, blocking Gensou's path of charge. Another inner guard waved his hand, and a dense array of black spears flew out from the black mist, stabbing towards Gensou, but they were all shattered by Kamen Rider in one move.

Ok?

In the instant of their exchange, Gengo noticed the strangeness in Ursus's inner guard's moves. Having fought fiercely with Sonozaki Ryubei before, he realized that these energies seemed to be mixed with the aura of 'fear,' as if that emotion was being materialized and used to attack.

Unfortunately, I had already overcome my fear.

With a low roar, Yuanxiang used his fist to tear a clear path through the attacks of the Ursus guards, fearlessly charging into the black mist barrier. In that instant, Yuanxiang felt an indescribable pressure fall on him, causing his movements to slow down.

Upon seeing Yuanxiang forcefully break in, the Ursus guards did not hesitate. One drew his longsword to attack, another provided cover beside him, and a third lingered, ready to provide support at any moment.

Furthermore, as the Ursus guards were about to unleash that energy explosion with a radius of nearly two meters again, Yuanxiang felt a terrifying warning. He even sensed the scent of death within it. He hurriedly retreated to avoid it, only to see that the rocks affected by the energy explosion had vanished without a trace, as if their existence had been completely erased.

“It takes incredible courage to venture into our ‘country’ to fight.”

The leading guard brandished a long sword, and as he swung it, weapons formed from mist appeared in the 'kingdom' beside him, launching an attack on Gensou in coordination with his movements.

"But it's also incredibly foolish. Learn this lesson with your life... Ugh!!!"

Before the guard could finish speaking, Yuanxiang suddenly threw a powerful punch from above. The force of the impact shattered the ground like leaf patterns. At the same time, the guard closest to him felt as if he had been hit by a truck and was forced to retreat backward. The black mist energy that had been detonated was also completely destroyed in the shockwave.

But all of that was secondary. What surprised the Ursus guards the most was that Yuanxiang's punch had actually caused their 'kingdom' to show signs of disintegration.

What terrifying destructive power!

'Every Inner Guard is a nation'—this seemingly narrative description actually illustrates a fact. The Ursus Inner Guards all know that there are powerful individuals who can withstand the corruption of a 'nation' and kill them, but forcibly dispelling a 'nation'... this is truly a challenge for these three Ursus Inner Guards.

"So this is what it feels like?"

At this moment, the Ursus guards heard Gensou's whisper and huddled together defensively, preparing to meet Gensou's overwhelming attack. But they saw Gensou turn and leave the 'Kingdom', and then take out a small, long strip they had never seen before.

But whatever that creation may be, if it is what the enemy wants to achieve, then it is what we must stop. Do not think that 'nation' is nothing more than that.

The seamless teamwork allowed the three Ursus guards to act simultaneously. The dark mist exploded out of thin air, polluting the space and corroding the earth. In an instant, it created a new 'kingdom' that extended outwards, pulling the Yuanxiang, which had broken away from it, back into the suppression of the 'kingdom'.

To the surprise of the guards, Yuanxiang seemed unconcerned about his current situation. He looked at the 'kingdom' formed by the black mist, as if he were studying it seriously. At this moment, the Ursus guards clearly felt that this black-armored warrior had no intention of fighting, as if he had already won the battle.

Arrogant!!!

The Ursus guards were enraged and mobilized their forces to crush the boy who had underestimated the enemy in fear. In the dark "kingdom", hundreds of black spears appeared in an instant. At the same time, strange protrusions appeared at the feet of Yuanxiang, as if sharp blades were about to pierce through and make him taste the pain of being slowly sliced ​​to death.

But just as things were about to escalate, Yuanxiang, who seemed to be deep in thought, suddenly clenched his fist. In an instant, an equally dark aura erupted from his body, shattering all the attacks coming at him. In the perception of the Ursus guards, a domain different from the 'Kingdom' but even more turbid and filthy swallowed the warrior in front of them, like a legendary demon king, making people tremble with fear!

206 Sakura Kinomoto, the 'Thief'

What kind of monster is this...?

The Ursus guards stared in horror at the murky domain, which seemed to be writhing and twisting shadows slowly devouring the 'kingdom'. They seemed to hear people howling, roaring, and groaning. If they were distracted by those sounds, demonic figures would suddenly appear before them, baring their fangs and claws, ready to skin them alive.

Despite being Ursus's most outstanding soldier, he felt powerless like a child. Moreover, looking at those demons, he felt an urge urging him to drop everything, join them, and enjoy that 'unfettered' bliss.

"Wake up!"

Seeing that his teammates were not in good condition, the leader of the Ursus guards shouted and slapped them hard to wake them from their hallucination. Then, looking at the ever-expanding area, he spoke in a low voice the guards' secret code, which was very simple: you retreat, I will cover the rear, and we must bring the news back from here.

However....

It's too late.

The other two Ursus guards stealthily moved forward, trying to escape, only to find that the path behind them was now filled with those chaotic and distorted shadows, and they were already trapped.

"Damn it! For Ursus!"

Realizing his predicament, one of the Ursus guards roared, his body enveloped in black mist, resembling a fully armed tank, and charged towards Yuanxiang. But the moment he stepped into that chaotic domain, translucent arms suddenly stretched out from the space, gripping the guard's body like chains. The instant the arms made contact with the black mist, a piercing sound, like a howl, exploded, sending chills down the spines of those who heard it.

But that was secondary. Under the watchful eyes of the three, the Ursus guard roared and charged forward, but his movements were so slow that he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He never thought he would experience this kind of suppression similar to that of a 'nation'. What's more, the power of this domain was even greater than its predecessor. It was only a distance of ten steps, but it took him four hundred meters to run. In this state... he probably only had enough time to throw a punch to drink a cup of tea.

However, my mission is not to defeat you!

Seeing that the boy in front of him showed no intention of moving, the Ursus Guard was overjoyed. Beneath his gas mask-like helmet, a faint, ominous black light seemed to flow. This was the Ursus Guard's last resort. They all had fragments of the 'Demon' within them, and most of their special powers came from them. As long as the power of the 'Demon' was unleashed, this land would be forever 'stained black,' and everything within the explosion range would not be spared.

You dangerous bastard, we absolutely cannot let you leave, for the sake of Ursus!!!

The inner guards, fearless in the face of death, shouted their glory, turning themselves into deadly bombs. Dark power was instantly unleashed, permeating the space and the earth.

But that's about it.

"It seems he was too eager to kill me."

Yuanxiang looked at the surviving Ursus guard and said softly, as the guardian of this evil thought, he knew very well why the enemy who was about to rush in front of him suddenly turned around and ran to the left. It was his excessive killing intent that caused the evil thought to resonate with him, causing him to have an illusion and be attracted to it.

Meanwhile, the Ursus guards watched silently as the dark mist and the chaotic, filthy evil clashed, but the power of the 'demon' was ultimately no match for the shadow of millions of people, and it was gradually assimilated and devoured until no trace remained.

“Hiss... You manipulative devil, I believe Duke Koschei has already fallen to you.”

The Ursus guard slowly drew his longsword and began to gather and concentrate the power of the 'Kingdom,' speaking in a deep voice:

"But now, this battle has nothing to do with anything else. We will kill you! We will never allow a demon like you to walk on the land of Ursus! For Ursus! Charge!!"

As the battle cry rang out, the remaining Ursus guards fearlessly charged toward Yuanxiang with their swords drawn. With the previous victim having paved the way, they already knew what preparations they needed to make.

However... the Kamen Riders, who couldn't be defeated even in the 'Kingdom', are now back on their home turf. How can they possibly be a match for Gengo?

"Don't be so smug... you devil..."

Moments later, before detonating himself, the leading Ursus guard looked at the tall, slender figure and murmured weakly:

"The blade of Ursus will eventually end you..."

'boom!!!'

Then, another muffled explosion rang out, and the dark mist was once again completely swallowed up, marking the end of the battle. Genji silently looked at the shadows around him. This was the power he had released in imitation of the 'Kingdom'. With the aura of 'Xtrema Joker' as a template, it wasn't too difficult. Genji's idea was simple: since these evil thoughts had entered his body, it would be a waste to just suppress them. He might as well try to make use of them, considering it as 'rent' for their living in his soul.

But... how should I put it?

Gensho raised his head, looking at the arms reaching out to him, and amidst the ghostly whispers, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

And at this moment...

"Yuanxiang, evacuate!!"

A burly figure, wielding a halberd and a massive shield, marched towards them with the imposing presence of a mobile castle, his roar echoing like thunder across the air.

"Ursus defender, have the guts to fight me!!"

"Stop!"

Genshou formed a sword with his left hand and swung it downwards. The blade of energy left a thin mark on the ground, stopping the man's advance. Then he took a deep breath, closed his eyes, tilted his head back slightly, and opened his chest. In that instant, the filthy and distorted shadow was like a ship caught in a whirlpool. Despite its desperate struggle, it was still swept into the raging sea and disappeared without a trace.

"........."

The patriot, who witnessed this scene, stood there holding his halberd, blinking in disbelief. After a lifetime of military service, this was the first time he felt like he had seen something wrong.

"Don't come near me for now."

Yuanxiang paid no attention to the situation on Patriot's side. After withdrawing his evil aura, he frowned and covered his forehead. The evil in his soul surged again, and he didn't know if it was because he had absorbed the three Ursus guards or for some other unknown reason, but Yuanxiang vaguely sensed that the evil had become a little stronger.

But that doesn't matter. Having already experienced something like this once, Gensou has gained experience, and his willpower has been boosted by '+2', so he won't exhibit the same frenzied behavior as in the basement again.

However...

I just came out of the basement not long ago...

Yuanxiang shook his head with a wry smile. Now that he thought about it, he realized he had no self-awareness and had just made trouble for himself.

"Yuanxiang... what happened?"

Talulah, who arrived later, looked at the constantly distorting shadow of Gensou and asked the Patriot beside her with concern. The elderly captain hesitated for a moment, then whispered:

"He must have devoured the 'demon' fragments from the Ursus Guards, this bizarre phenomenon..."

"No, this has nothing to do with the Ursus guards."

At that moment, Yuanxiang's voice came, and the boy stood up straight. His shadow no longer swayed. Under the sunlight on the snowfield, his smile looked particularly warm and reassuring. However, his increasingly pale cheeks and clothes soaked with sweat indicated that his condition was getting worse.

"That's something I encountered recently, it has nothing to do with your world, so don't worry about it."

Seeing Talulah rush over to help him up, drying his clothes with flames and dispelling the chill, Genji smiled gratefully. Then, looking at Patriot approaching, his eyes lit up slightly, and he said softly:

"Your aura was quite impressive just now, so your martial arts skills must be pretty good. How about we arrange a time to spar sometime in the future?"

"...I really didn't expect you to have actually forgotten."

Patriot had already learned about the situation in Genkyo from Talulah, and sighed with mixed feelings.

After reintroducing themselves, the Reunion team reappeared and headed towards the base. During this process, Patriot briefly explained the backstory of the Ursus Inner Guard to Genji and Talulah. Seeing Genji's seemingly sullen expression, Patriot hesitated for a moment and whispered:

“You don’t need to worry too much. Power is just a medium in the end. It depends on where you use it. You see, the inner guards use about the same power as you, but in my time, they were heroes who defended Ursus from being invaded by demons and monsters.”

"Old patriot, I understand this principle."

Yuanxiang was already prepared to travel with demons, but recalling the first Ursus guard to die, he seemed somewhat dispirited as he said:

"But... I don't really like this power. How should I put it? I don't like this... feeling of toying with people's hearts. That feeling... is really annoying. Of course, I will use it without hesitation when needed, so please don't worry about me in this regard."
