I am Kamen Rider who reverses dimensions

"I've figured it out now. I'm just a guy residing in this memory, and this memory is nothing but an illusion. So how am I supposed to maintain it?"

"That's not necessarily true."

Gengo interrupted Narumi Shokichi, holding the 'cyclone' and raising his hand. Instantly, a turquoise gale swept up all the lingering death energy in the air, as well as all the remaining energy from the unclosed gap in the Land of the Dead. After assimilating it, he sent it into the illusory 'skull'. Immediately, Narumi Shokichi's dissipating body solidified again, and even his face regained some color, suggesting that he could hold on for quite some time.

"Oh? That's quite an unusual tactic."

Narumi Shokichi glanced at his palm in surprise and muttered something under his breath. Meanwhile, Philip's expression was quite strange. The reason was simple: when Genji had just used the power of 'Cyclone,' he suddenly realized he had temporarily lost access to the 'Earth Library.' This left him with very mixed feelings. From persecuting Shotaro when they first met, is he now persecuting me...?

"Yuanxiang, you really know how to give me all sorts of surprises."

Ignoring the somewhat disheartened Philip, Narumi Shokichi looked at Gengo, took off his hat, and said with a light laugh:

"This hat suits you very well."

"hey-hey."

Yuanxiang smiled and reached out to take the hat he had lent out. At that moment, a change suddenly occurred behind the boy. A portal resembling an aurora curtain appeared. However, this was not an attack. The boy had also come here because of Badan. Now that Badan had disappeared, the world was beginning to sort itself out. He, like Badan, was an outsider and would naturally be sent back to his original world.

Genji hadn't realized this was happening. Before he knew it, half of his body had already entered the portal. The flying hat brushed past the boy's fingertips and fell downwards. Feeling the unusually strong gravitational pull behind him, Genji smiled helplessly and prepared to wave goodbye to everyone. This was for the best. He had left in too much of a hurry. Going back sooner would put Nanoha and Hayate at ease.

But at that moment, the real Aurora Veil suddenly crashed in, taking the place of the portal. Tsukasa Kadoya snorted coldly, waved his hand back, and Genji was spat out. Tsukasa Kadoya caught the boy with one hand, put his hat back on with the other, and snorted:

"These mere counterfeit products are trying to steal my business; they really don't take me seriously."

"Truly a world traveler, the master of magenta."

Gengo smiled and gave Gengo a thumbs up. Kadoya Tsukasa nodded in satisfaction, as if to say, "You can praise me a little more."

"Gentlemen, if you don't mind, how about we go to Fengdu for a visit?"

At that moment, Narumi Shoki suddenly spoke up, looking at the Kamen Riders, patting Taikai Ryu on the shoulder, and saying with a smile:

"I heard from Terui that his wedding preparations with Akiko are almost complete. Why not celebrate now while everyone's here?"

"Ho ho ho, this is great news! I, Grandpa Momotaros, absolutely have to attend!"

"Oh, a wedding? Shoichi-senpai, I remember you're a chef too, right? How about we take this opportunity to exchange ideas?"

"Alright, alright, Souji, then please take care of me."

"Getting married, a new stage in life, haha. I wonder if they'll need a drummer at the wedding, otherwise I could fill in, haha."

"A wedding? Eiji, does that mean we get lots of ice cream?"

"anhk... I feel like you've gone crazy from eating too much ice cream lately..."

"Then I have to go and take Ali along; she'll definitely enjoy something this exciting."

"Haha, I met so many new friends and even got to attend a wedding. Taking time off this time was totally worth it!"

........

Hearing Narumi Shoji's words, the Kamen Riders all enthusiastically echoed him. Kazuha Kouta nervously rubbed his hands together. Surrounded by such a group of senior Kamen Riders, he didn't know how to start the conversation. Suddenly, his body shuddered violently, and his head drooped limply. When he raised it again, a red flash appeared in his eyes, and a red streak appeared in his hair. Then, Kazuha Kouta spoke in Momotaros's voice and chased after Sakurai Yuuto, who was possessed by Tensei, to do something else.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Kaito Kamen, who was looking coolly at the scene with his hands in his pockets, twitched his lips slightly, seemingly wanting to say something. In the end, he decided to leave, but suddenly felt something fall on his back. He quickly turned around and saw the Showa Knights looking at him with kind smiles. However, what he didn't see was that just now, Gengo had walked over, pointed at him, and whispered something to Hongo Takeshi and the others.

Forget it, let's go.

Kaito Kyoumen smiled stiffly at the group of old knights, then turned to run. Those guys who fought like thugs were best left alone. But then, Kaito suddenly stopped, his eyes flashing a pale blue light, blue highlights appearing in his hair, and his demeanor becoming subtly flamboyant. Possessed by another Imagin—Putaros—of the Denban Train, Kaito flamboyantly tossed his hair aside, saying with a half-smile:

"You took my bait so easily, you really need more training, senior Hongo Takeshi."

While he was talking to himself, Kaito the Chamonmi had already walked to the middle of the Showa Knights and said softly:

"I'll leave this to you now."

After saying that, Urtaros dispelled the possession and returned to the Electric Beast, leaving Kaito with wide-eyed Kyoukai staring at the group of veterans around him...

"So, Mr. Godai, you've been working on the Bataan project with Tsukasa Kadoya all along."

On the other side, Gengo and Godai Yusuke walked side by side, and said with a sudden realization:

"No wonder I couldn't find you. I thought it was just bad luck."

"Well... luck does play a tiny bit of a role."

Yusuke Godai said somewhat awkwardly:

"Although Tsukasa Kadoya told me not to tell you about this operation, lest you insist on joining in and aggravate your physical discomfort, when you came to find me, I had already gone out with Tsukasa Kadoya. We really just happened to be out of luck."

"Looks like my lucky home ground is still in Fengdu."

Gensho chuckled and remarked this, at which point Haruto Misaki walked over and said very solemnly:

"Yuanxiang, thank you."

"Huh? What's wrong with me?"

This left Genji a little confused. He subconsciously recalled the last joint operation. Was it because he had resolved that doctor's matter back then? This... shouldn't be enough to make him so serious...?

"It's about Alex."

Seeing Gensato's expression, Haruto immediately understood what was going on and explained:

"Back on the train, didn't you say that Alex's body wasn't right? After that battle, I checked him out carefully and found some clues to prevent any potential accidents in the future. So, Gensou, thank you for reminding me. Otherwise, I might have lost Alex."

"Oh, that's great! I'm so glad I could help you so much."

As Haruto Soma spoke, Gengo recalled the past, laughed happily, and swayed the magician's shoulder. Haruto Soma couldn't help but smile as well. Suddenly, Gentaro Kisaragi ran over, straightened his pompadour, and raised his fist towards Gengo, saying very seriously:

"What happened last time was so sudden. I was completely stunned at the end and lost all composure. I didn't even have time to say a lot of things. So, now I'm sorting things out and summarizing. Yuanxiang, let's be friends!"

"Oh! We're friends now!"

Ever since the battle against Bataan, Gensou's smile hadn't left his face. Full of energy, the boy exchanged fist bumps with Gentaro Kisaragi, snapped his fingers, and made a checkmark. Gentaro Kisaragi tossed his hair, grabbed Gensou's hand, and said:

"Okay, then just call me whenever you need me. Even if you're in space, I'll be there in no time!"

"Me too!"

"Where did you learn this dialect from?"

Upon hearing Gengo's answer, Tsukasa Kadoya, who had just arrived, couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark, then pointed to the aurora curtain not far away and said:

"Let's go, let's head straight to Fengdu."

"okay."

......

"Uncle, I'm sorry..."

On the other side, Shotaro could no longer hold back his tears. Looking at his master, he sobbed and apologized:

"If I had just listened to you, you wouldn't have died. It's all my fault, all my fault..."

"Shotaro, lift your head."

Narumi Shokichi, supporting the trembling, grief-stricken Shotaro, looked him intently in the eye and said:

"Do you remember what you should do before listing the sins of others?"

"First, enumerate your own sins."

Shotaro answered without hesitation. Narumi Shokichi smiled slightly, gently flicked the forehead of this half-baked tough guy, and said:

"Haven't you counted yet after all this time? Come on, stand up straight, Shotaro. I've never blamed you. When I died, my only regret was not being able to continue guiding you, but now..."

Narumi Shokichi straightened Sashoutaro's hat, wiped away the tears on his disciple's face, and said earnestly:

"You've already earned your title as the Detective of the Hat, I'm relieved."

"Uncle..."

Upon hearing this, Shotaro's tears welled up again, but he couldn't let himself be praised by the older man so easily, like a half-baked tough guy. So he held back! He held back!

Seeing Shotaro trying hard to hold back his tears, Narumi Shokichi smiled helplessly. It had been so long since they last met. Although his face had matured a lot, his personality was still the same. At this moment, Narumi Shokichi noticed Philip next to him. The handsome young man did not speak, but smiled and nodded to the detective who had rescued him from the Sonozaki family. Narumi Shokichi understood what he meant and nodded in response.

Have you found your way to survive yet? This trip back is all good news, huh?

Just as Narumi Shokichi was feeling sentimental, he saw Gensou leaving the place laughing and talking. He pressed down on the hat that Shotaro had brought him, looked down at his disciple and said;

"Shotaro, you've found a pretty good assistant. If I were still alive and a bit older, I'd want to take him from you."

"Ah... this..."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of Shotaro, Philip, and Terui Ryu all turned strange. Anhk, who was eating ice cream nearby, had a glint in his eye and was eager to say something, but Hino Eiji covered his mouth and then carried him on his shoulder through the Aurora Curtain and left.

"what happened?"

Narumi Shokichi, being the renowned detective of Fuuto, noticed that the reactions of the Kamen Riders around him were somewhat off. He immediately realized that the information he had might be incorrect and continued to ask:

"Are you Yuanxiang's assistant? That's understandable, there's nothing shameful about it. There's always something to learn from others. A tough guy should know how to humbly ask others for advice and learn from them in order to break through his own limitations."

"Well... I'd be quite happy if Yuanxiang were one of our people..."

"Ok?"

Narumi Shokichi, being a newly resurrected 'person,' was somewhat out of touch. Lacking information, he couldn't guess what was going on. Shotaro, Philip, and Terui Ryu exchanged glances. In the end, the half-baked tough guy stepped forward and whispered to his uncle, explaining the whole story.

"A parallel world...another Fuuto detective...Minamoto Shokichi? Wait, you mean!?"

Gengo was unaware of what had happened in Sawame City. He passed through the aurora curtain and arrived in Futo. Although this was not his hometown, he couldn't help but feel relaxed looking at the familiar scenery.

"Xiang, you've come! Is that... really true?!"

At that moment, Akiko Narumi ran out of the detective agency, grabbed Gengo's hand, and asked anxiously. It was clear that she already knew about Shoji Narumi's 'resurrection' and had been waiting for Gengo for a long time. Even though she understood that the Kamen Riders had no reason to deceive her, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. Akiko Narumi really did not want to experience such ups and downs.

"Yes, although not completely, Mr. Zhuangji has indeed returned."

Gengo smiled and reassured Narumi Akiko, helping her back to the office to sit down. Seeing her so agitated and flustered that her hands and feet were trembling slightly, Gengo picked up a pair of slippers from the nearby cabinet and put them in Narumi Akiko's hands. Then, as if she had found her pillar of support, she calmed down considerably.

Well, Aunt Peach was right. If you have slippers in your hand, you'd dare to go up even if you encountered an armed robber.

The boy couldn't help but mutter this to himself, then he sighed with a somewhat complicated feeling. Although he might be able to get rid of the amnesia caused by the 'blankness' thanks to his seniors, he probably wouldn't be able to get back the memories he had lost before.

This made Yuanxiang feel a little regretful, and at the same time he couldn't help but criticize himself in his heart. This person is just greedy. It was already very difficult to make it look like this.

"Right, right, we need to get ready, we need to get ready right away, preferably by tomorrow."

At this moment, Akiko Narumi, who had been sitting on the sofa in a daze, suddenly stood up. The Kamen Riders hadn't hidden the truth from her; she knew very well that her father's return was only temporary and that he might leave at any time. So no matter what, she had to make sure her father walked down the aisle with her at the wedding and witnessed this important moment in her life with him. It was also to fulfill the promise they made back then. After all... after all, they had made a promise like this!

Watching Narumi Akiko rush out while tears streamed down her face, Gengo stood up, put the slippers Narumi Akiko had left behind back in their place, then went into the bathroom, lifted his shirt, and checked the condition of his chest.

The hole in the heart hadn't healed yet, but it had shrunk considerably, and the heart's outline had solidified a lot. It also had a faint golden light within it, floating like a fish inside. The cracks on the body also shimmered with the same faint golden light, and it no longer hurt when touched. This must be the power bestowed upon him by the seniors of Hongo Takeshi. It was truly amazing.

Um.....
