"what?!"

While Tokiwa Sougo was quite interested in his current appearance, Woz's sudden outburst startled him. The boy looked at his follower from the future, who was circling him and shouting almost fanatically:

"He is Kamen Rider Zi-O, who embodies the power of all Riders, transcends time and space, and knows the past and future!"

"You're making me feel quite embarrassed."

Tokiwa Sougo gave Woz a somewhat awkward smile, but that didn't matter anymore. Now that he was a Kamen Rider, it was time to settle things with Meikoin Geiz!

Then.....

And that was the end of it.

What could Meikoin Geiz possibly use to fight Tokiwa Sougo now? The little devil easily defeated the simpleton again. Meikoin Geiz lay on the ground, clutching his chest, staring at Kamen Rider Zi-O without saying a word. His neck stiffened, as if he were ready to face death. But Tokiwa Sougo didn't kill him. He simply helped Meikoin Geiz up, patted him on the shoulder, and whispered:

"I won't kill you. I'll say it again: I'm not the Demon King from your timeline. If you don't believe me, stay by my side and see what path I take. If, during this process, you still think I'll become the Demon King in your mind, then come and fight me again. At that time, I'll get serious and fight you fairly. Tsukuyomi, what do you think?"

"Eh?!"

Hiding to the side, Tsukuyomi, who had arrived unnoticed, instinctively gasped in surprise. Then, under Tokiwa Sougo's gaze, she silently nodded and whispered:

"Alright, I'll be watching you, watching to see if you'll become the future Demon King."

"Tsukuyomi, you!"

Meikoin Geiz was clearly unconvinced and wanted to say something, but at that moment, Tsukuyomi took out a pistol and fired a shockwave at Meikoin Geiz, knocking him unconscious. Then she nodded to Tokiwa Sougo and said seriously:

"He agreed."

"You really know how to handle Gates."

Tokiwa Sougo glanced at Tsukuyomi with surprise, then smiled and said:

"Alright, now that we've reached an agreement, I'm going to school now."

The boy took out his schoolbag, waved at Tsukuyomi and Woz, and said:

"Let's meet again after school. I'm in a hurry, so I'll be going now!"

Just as Tokiwa Sougo gained the power of Kamen Rider, Gengo had finished his training. Kiryu Sento lay listlessly on a bench, looking like he had overindulged in too much pleasure. A passing child was curious and wanted to poke his face to ask if he was alright, but his mother immediately pulled him aside, anxiously telling him not to touch those strange-looking uncles. Kiryu Sento gave Gengo a resentful look.

Yes, after being possessed, Kiryu Sento can now see the location of Gengo. Although Gengo is still a blurry figure in his eyes, there is no doubt that he will no longer be laughed at by Gengo for facing the wrong direction.

"Your potential is surprisingly good. Although you are a blank slate, it is precisely because you are a blank slate that you are surprisingly easy to teach."

Gengo chuckled and helped Kiryu Sento up. Following the direction he pointed out, they headed towards the coffee shop "nascita" where Kiryu was currently staying. According to him, his secret base was located underground in that coffee shop, where the nebula gas he extracted from the monsters would evolve and be extracted, thus becoming his own power.

"Ciao~ Zhan Tu, it seems your first battle didn't go very well."

In the coffee shop "nascita," when Kiryu Sento pushed open the door, a middle-aged man wearing small glasses, smiling, looked at his somewhat disheveled appearance and said softly:

"You must be tired. Get some rest. I've made you some coffee."

"Manager, I've been working really hard."

Upon hearing the word "coffee," Kiryu Sento's expression changed drastically, and he repeatedly refused. It was common knowledge that the coffee from the manager of the coffee shop "nascita" was undrinkable; the taste... it was truly baffling why this person had the confidence to open a coffee shop.

"Oh, really, just trust me a little bit."

The middle-aged man looked helplessly at Kiryu Sento, pushed a cup of coffee towards him, and said with a smile:

"I'm making progress, and I'll definitely make some improvements this time, so there shouldn't be any problems."

"...I'll trust you one last time."

Kiryu Sento glanced at the seemingly normal coffee, picked it up suspiciously, but just as he brought it to his lips, his mouth twitched, and he decisively put the coffee down, waving his hand repeatedly.

"No, no, I'll come back after I've rested, manager. I'm very tired right now."

After saying that, Kiryu Sento nimbly dodged the middle-aged man, then ran inside the counter, opened the bottom shelf of the refrigerator, revealing a doorway to the basement. He then darted inside in a flash, his movements so agile that it was impossible to tell that he was the same guy who had just been weak and needed Gengo's support or even to be carried by him.

I've noted that down; it seems I can increase the amount for this guy later.

Gengo silently noted this down, then turned to look at the middle-aged man beside him. His name was Ishidou Souichi, the guy who had picked up Kiryu Sento. Although he seemed harmless with his smile, Gengo felt something was off. Something was really off about him, like he was acting. Gengo felt that something... inhuman was hidden deep inside him.

Trusting his intuition, the boy subtly released his aura, and a purer, soul-level pressure immediately enveloped the front desk area of ​​the coffee shop. At that moment, Gengo saw Ishido Soichi's expression suddenly change. For an ordinary person, encountering such a situation would elicit fear and unease, but in Ishido Soichi's case, the boy instantly caught a glimpse of a venomous snake's eyes and a killing intent that sent a chill down his spine!

There was definitely a problem!

Upon realizing this, Genji didn't hesitate to pounce directly into Ishidou Souichi's body. Although this guy also sensed the danger, it was still a bit too confident for him to be able to pinpoint the boy's location so accurately within Genji's aura, given that the soul was invisible.

After Gensou entered Ishidou Souichi's body, he immediately saw two souls. One was Ishidou Souichi, but he was currently in a deep sleep and could hardly react to the outside world. The other was a deformed monster, a standard freak. It was clear that he was very surprised by Gensou's appearance and did not expect to be exposed in this way.

“ciao~”

The snake-skinned monster gave a unique greeting to Yuanxiang, seemingly intending to have a proper talk with him and perhaps even reach some kind of deal. However, the boy had no intention of continuing the conversation. Without saying a word, he pounced on the monster, instantly unleashing his terrifying soul domain to block all of the creature's escape routes.

However, this snake-skinned monster was also very decisive. After realizing that it was no match for Gengo here, it ran away without saying a word. In reality, a thick, disgusting, slightly pinkish liquid, seemingly some kind of flesh and blood, suddenly gushed out from Ishido Soichi's body. It cleanly and neatly burrowed into the sewer along the drain and split into several parts in an instant, escaping in all directions. Gengo chased after it and crushed the thirteen strands he could sense with his psychic power. After repeatedly checking and finding nothing else, Gengo returned to the coffee shop and looked at the real Ishido Soichi, who was slowly waking up again.

434. Drink it all in one gulp!

Sōichi Ishidō, clutching his aching head, slowly got up from the ground. He adjusted his hat, looked around blankly, seemingly feeling extremely unfamiliar with everything around him. But something immediately popped into his mind, and with trembling lips, he stepped over the bar, rushed to the refrigerator, and ran into the basement.

At this moment, Kiryu Sento was adjusting the equipment, and standing next to him was a sleepy-eyed girl in pajamas. Behind her was a huge machine that occupied almost half of the basement. Judging from the looks of it, she was about to enter it.

But a sudden noise caught their attention. They instinctively looked up and saw Shi Dongsou running down in a panic. Before they could say anything, the man rushed over and hugged the girl tightly.

"dad?"

The girl called out in confusion, but after feeling her father's slightly trembling body, she didn't say much. She simply reached out and hugged him, gently comforting him. At the same time, she turned her head to look at Kiryu Sento beside her, puzzled. Although she hadn't known him for very long, she had taken care of this amnesiac idiot, and they had become good friends. So the girl was very curious about what had happened upstairs that had caused her father to lose his composure like this.

But Kiryu Sento didn't know either. He blankly spread his hands, indicating his thoughts to the girl, and then...

"Misora, are you alright? That bastard didn't do anything to you, did he?!"

"Eh?!"

The girl was being scrutinized by her father, leaving her completely bewildered. She let out a low, confused gasp. At the same time, she seized an opportunity to look at Kiryu Sento again, but this time her eyes held a hint of intimidation. After all, there were only the three of them in the cafe, and the bastard her father was referring to was naturally Kiryu Sento.

Do you have some bad intentions towards me?

I didn't!!!

Although it was just an exchange of glances, Kiryu Sento understood what the girl meant. He kept giving her meaningful looks and shouting that he was innocent. At the same time, he began to have doubts in his heart. After all, he had not seen the location of Genjo since he arrived here. He was probably left up there. Could it be that something happened between him and the boss?

Ok? !

Suddenly, Kiryu Sento realized something, abruptly turned his gaze back, and looked in front of him. He saw that Ishido Souichi's gaze was quite complicated, so complicated that Kiryu Sento had given up trying to analyze his feelings.

"Sento, right...?"

Sōichi Ishidō looked at the amnesiac youth with mixed feelings. After regaining control of this body, he vaguely recalled some scenes, things that happened after the strange man took over his body. Although they were few, he could still remember the past that 'he' had spent with this youth. How to put it? Although he didn't know what the strange man's motives were for rescuing this youth, Kiryu Sento was indeed a good... and somewhat pitiful kid. If he had been kicked out, he probably would have nowhere to go.

"Dad? What happened to Zhan Tu?"

The girl sensed something was off about the atmosphere in the basement, and cautiously tugged at Ishido Sōichi's sleeve, whispering:

"You look strange, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Anyway... please sit down first. I'll go upstairs and invite that guest, no, my benefactor, down, and then we can talk slowly."

"As for being a benefactor, no, no, I was just doing it on the side, helping this clumsy student out of some trouble."

After hearing Ishidou Sōichi's words, Genji, who had been hiding on the stairs eavesdropping on the commotion below, calmly walked down and said with a light laugh:

"My name is Yuanxiang, just call me Xiang. Manager, are you alright? Don't you need to sit down and rest?"

"Haha, now that you mention it, I do feel some physical pain."

Ishidou Souichi laughed heartily. After confirming that his daughter was not in danger, he suddenly relaxed and sat down on the floor. Cold sweat had inexplicably soaked his shirt.

"Dad, are you alright...?"

The girl, Ishido Misora, followed her father's gaze to the empty staircase. Seeing that Ishido Sōichi didn't seem to be toying with her, she tensed up, reached out to wipe the sweat from her father's forehead, and quickly said:

"Don't be afraid, I'll go get the first-aid kit right away."

"Misora, can't you see Mr. Gengo?"

Although Ishidou Souichi also felt that Genji's figure was quite blurry, he didn't take it to heart. After all, this was a big shot who had fought back his freedom, so it was normal for him to have some uniqueness. However, now that his daughter was completely invisible, Ishidou Souichi became uneasy, worried that something might have happened to his daughter.

"Don't worry, your daughter is fine."

Gengo noticed the nervous look in Ishido Souichi's eyes and tried to comfort him. However, at this moment, the boy had no intention of possessing Ishido Misora's body. After all, it was an emergency, and he had acted so decisively to prevent that strange person from harming Kiryu Sento.

"It's just that I'm in a ghost-like state right now, which is why she can't see me. The reason you and Sento can see me is because I've possessed you both."

"I see..."

After hearing this explanation, Sōichi Ishidō felt relieved, but he did not ask Gensō to possess Misora ​​Ishidō so that she could see him. As a father, he instinctively did not want his child to come into contact with the unknown and wanted to keep her away from potential dangers.

That's why Yuanxiang didn't continue. If one day he becomes a father, he would never let his child come into contact with something so dangerous.

"Misora, go upstairs and get some coffee-making supplies. I have something I need to talk to you about."

Upon hearing the word "coffee," both Misora ​​Isurugi and Sento Kiryu's expressions changed slightly. However, seeing how serious Sōichi Isurugi looked, Misora ​​couldn't bring herself to refuse. She ran upstairs and quickly came down with the coffee.

"There's something I need to tell you. Don't be afraid or doubtful; I'm not joking."

While preparing coffee, Ishidou Sōichi said earnestly:

"The me I was with you before wasn't the real me, but an alien who took over my body."

"alien?!"

"dad?!"

Kiryu Sento clearly took Isurugi Sōichi's words to heart, so his attention was completely focused on the 'alien,' while Isurugi Misora ​​nervously tried to get the first-aid kit to give her father some fever-reducing medicine, as if she were delirious from the fever.

Sōichi Ishidou pulled his daughter aside and continued speaking softly. Ten years ago, as an astronaut, he discovered a strange box on Mars and was also taken over by an alien. After returning to Earth, he was possessed by the alien and controlled to try to activate the box to destroy the Earth, but failed. He was sent to the hospital as a mentally unstable person, but escaped. He didn't know what he had experienced over the years, but eventually the alien used his body to open this coffee shop here.

"Manager, what do you remember about that alien?"

Kiryu Sento immediately sensed something was wrong. He began to realize that perhaps his amnesia and the nebula gas experiment were all under the control of that alien. Therefore, the young man was very nervous and eager to know more.

Misora ​​Ishidou fell silent. Ten years ago, a great disaster occurred during the return ceremony of the manned Mars exploration spacecraft. The Sky Wall that appeared that day caused enormous damage to the island nation, which was known as the "Sky Wall Tragedy." She had met many netizens online who had lost their families because of that tragedy, but she never expected that the truth of the matter would be so close to her own.

"Speaking of which, Sento, you should know about the bottle you use... I think it's called a Full Bottle, right? Is the manufacturing method of this bottle similar to the so-called beatmactch?"

"Of course I know that."

Kiryu Sento nodded. He would turn Smash back into a human, extract the components, and then use a transformation device to purify the extracted components into a bottle, which would then be usable by the Kamen Rider.

The latter, bestmatch, involves filling the "Build Driver" with two specific Fullbottles, allowing Kamen Rider Build, the form of Sento Kiryu, to unleash more effective and powerful abilities. This optimal combination of Fullbottles is called "Best Match".

"Don't you find this perfect pairing strange? Rabbits and tanks can make a pair."
