In this fantasy world, be a Kamen Rider

"Hmph! Talking big comes at a price! You'll regret what you said today!"

The vampire wanted to lash out, but the hand holding out the parasol was already smoking. He looked warily at the sun hanging high in the sky, flicked the sleeve of his tuxedo, and led the group of vampires away from the human world. However, Ye Ge could clearly feel the anger and coldness of the vampire clan.

"Look what you've done!"

Mokou grabbed him by the collar and roared like an angry little beast:

"Now look what's happened! We've made an enemy of the other side. Who's going to clean up this mess now?!"

"Tsk, don't say that, Mokou. I clearly chased them away for you! I don't expect you to thank me, but at least don't be so rough, okay?"

Having escaped from Mokou's clutches, Yoru straightened his clothes and glared at Mokou with displeasure. Mokou, annoyed, laughed and pointed at him, launching into a tirade:

"Then think about the consequences! Those bats hold grudges. You'd better stay out of the human world for a while and behave yourself."

Mokou has already thought it through. Yoru's actions today have completely broken ties with the vampires, but they have also shifted the conflict between humans and vampires onto him alone. So he may be in danger soon. Although he can deal with some monsters, the vampires are numerous and powerful, so it's really hard to say.

"Huh? But I'll run out of money if I don't go out! Are you going to support me, Mokou?"

Snapped!

"This is your money, don't go out!"

"..."

Section 16.16. It's time to infiltrate the enemy.

Mokou left the guard unit dejectedly, taking a leg-hanger with her. Yoru smugly rubbed the money in his hand, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Mokou.

"I never knew you were so rich, Mokou. Rich lady, please take care of me."

"roll!"

She rolled her eyes at him, but Mokou really couldn't stay angry with him. Exhausted, she sent Yoru back and told him to behave himself and not to go outside the human village.

"If a human is attacked in the human village, the police force has the authority to bring the monster or vampire to justice or even execute them on the spot. However, once outside the human village, it is no longer my jurisdiction. You are a client, so you should be very clear about this."

Although she was still a little worried, Mokou still parted ways with him. Unlike Yoka, who just lazed around all day, she needed to help with the work of the security team and the miscellaneous matters at Keine's place. Being able to spare time to help Yoka was already the limit.

"What a kind person, Mokou!"

Whistling towards the temple, Yoru turned around, put her hands in her pockets, and strolled leisurely down the street, occasionally looking left and right, and sometimes even stopping to sit down at a shop.

As Ye Ge strolled home, the time passed quickly. By the time she arrived, it was nearly dusk. Although there was still some time before nightfall, apart from the bustling downtown area, few people were out and about. Many residents had already finished work and gone home, and smoke was rising from chimneys in many places.

"Hiccup! As expected, you don't feel the pinch when you're not spending your own money."

Yege let out a burp and went into the house. He had eaten to his heart's content all day. The coins that Mokou left him, plus his own savings, were enough for him to squander for a month. And judging from Mokou's expression, this was nothing. Sure enough, getting on the good side of a rich woman was the pinnacle of life.

After tidying up the room a bit, it was completely dark. Ye Ge yawned, locked the door, and lay down comfortably on his small bed. This peaceful life wouldn't last long; he'd take it one day at a time. But Ye Ge didn't mind, because only through battle could he become stronger!

At midnight, all was quiet outside. There was no sound of machines running or vehicles driving. Gensokyo still maintained its most perfect natural environment, untouched by modern technology. Such a quiet night was a rare treat for outsiders.

Splash! Splash!

The faint sound of flapping wings broke the rare tranquility. A swarm of blood-red bats flew low over Night Song's house, hovering above it before finally landing in front of his door. The bats huddled together, rearranged themselves, and slowly a human figure emerged.

"Ha, mere humans, it's time for you to pay the price."

The vampire who emerged from the mist sneered, placed his hand on the wooden door, and with a flash of blood energy, a low, explosive sound rang out. The lock on the wooden door shattered as if it were made of paper, and the door was sent flying far away, landing on the floor inside the room.

"Who could it be so late? Is it Mokou?"

Ye Ge rubbed his sleepy forehead and eyes, sat up, still looking like he hadn't woken up properly. The vampire smiled sinisterly, his eyes flashing with a playful and cruel light. Suddenly, the bat wings behind him unfolded, and he pounced on Ye Ge, who was rubbing his eyes. His sharp claws tore through his clothes and lifted Ye Ge up.

"Come back with me, you reptile!"

Laughing triumphantly, the vampire burst through the roof and, amidst the astonished and resentful gazes of the security team members rushing towards the scene, took Night Song and rode away.

"How dare you! This is a human village!"

Nightsong was exposed to the cold wind. He flailed his limbs in feigned panic, but made no real movement, which only made the vampire holding him even more smug.

"Keep going? Weren't you so amazing during the day? Why aren't you continuing now? Useless!"

With a strong sense of mockery, the vampire, accompanied by the swaying Night Song, circled in the air and somehow returned to the location of the human village.

Silently landing in a secluded corner, the vampire emitted black mist that transformed into a thick cloth that covered Ye Ge's mouth, leading the struggling boy into a familiar place—the vampire's stronghold.

"Chief, I've brought him back. The guards couldn't see me at all; they must be in complete chaos by now, right?"

The vampire threw Night Song to the ground and removed the gag from his mouth. The ten vampires looked at Night Song, who was surrounded by them and struggling to get up, with a sneer. They stared at his neck with interest, as if they were looking at a lamb to the slaughter.

"Hey! Kid, you were pretty quick-witted during the day, why aren't you saying anything now? I'll give you that chance!"

The native vampire, seated on the sofa, held a scarlet wine glass, his eyes radiating undisguised mockery and murderous intent. Night Song stood up tremblingly, pointing at him and shouting:

"Let me go right now! Otherwise, the security team will cause you trouble."

"Now you're trying to pull strings with me? Do you even deserve it?"

A blood whip lashed out at Ye Ge, causing him to bend over instantly, a bloody welt appearing on his body. His face contorted in pain, and this expression immediately excited the other vampires nearby. Blood whips and fists rained down on Ye Ge, beating him until he couldn't get up.

But as long as Ye Ge knew, all the attacks were blocked by his mutated muscles and qi. Even the vampire's blood whip could only pierce his skin before being deflected by the purple qi inside. The rupture of capillaries was nothing to him, just like a scrape.

After more than ten minutes of beating, Ye Ge was covered in blood and collapsed weakly to the ground. The vampires stopped, still not satisfied. The pure-blooded vampire stepped forward, grabbed Ye Ge's hair, lifted his head, and kicked him hard, sending him flying.

"Move this waste to the back, separate it from the other goods, and we'll evacuate in the middle of the night, taking the other goods with us."

After the pure-blooded nobleman gave the order, a vampire immediately grabbed Ye Guo's ankle and dragged him away. Ye Ge put his hands on the ground to reduce friction, and his mind was already rapidly analyzing the pure-blooded vampire's words.

"Other goods? What do you mean? Money? Materials? Or... living people!"

Ye Ge, who was pondering, soon got the answer, because the mixed-race vampire had dragged him to the basement prison. Secretly opening his eyes, Ye Ge clearly saw that there were many small cages inside, some containing women and some containing children, whose blood was the vampires' favorite.

Section 17. Watch me kick your head off!

"Stay here and be safe! When we get back to the Scarlet Devil Mansion, I'll let you experience the thrill of being pierced, hehe."

They arrived at a special cell isolated from the other cells. The vampire shoved Ye Ge inside, kicked her hard, and then locked the door. Ye Ge got up from the ground, pressed her face against the door, and could still vaguely hear the conversation outside.

"Won't arresting so many people provoke a counterattack from the security forces?"

"Don't worry so much. After tonight, we'll all retreat and take all these humans with us to the Scarlet Devil Mansion to be blood slaves. Then there will be no evidence, and no one will find out. Maybe Sakuya will reward us!"

"Haha, you're right, let's pack it up quickly."

The vampires' conversation gradually stopped, replaced by faint sobs and the sound of blood whips striking the ground. Ye Ge rubbed his face, wiping away the blood, and sat quietly in the dilapidated room, seemingly waiting for something.

……

Squeak!

After an unknown amount of time, the iron gate in front of Ye Ge was opened, making a very harsh scraping sound. A low-level vampire walked in and reached out to grab him, but when he saw Ye Ge's raised face, his outstretched hand froze, and he couldn't help but stop.

What kind of expression was that? Fear? Despair? Anger? No, none of those. Night Song's mouth was stretched almost to his ears, his smile so arrogant that the vampire wondered if he had lost his mind. But the sound that rang in his ears immediately diverted his attention.

"Rabbit! Tank! Best Match!"

"henshin!"

Night Song leaped to her feet, her armor automatically covering her mid-air. Her blue foot slammed into the vampire's face with a sound like a bag breaking. The vampire's head was shattered by the blow. Night Song retracted her leg and landed on the ground, stepping on the corpse. Nebula gas corroded it, turning it into a ball that entered the BAT energy bottle.

"Tonight, I have to go on a killing spree, otherwise how can I justify my injuries?"

He kicked open the cell door and swaggered out. Along the way, he encountered many doors and guards blocking his path, but he kicked them all away. He was in a hurry and didn't have time to show off or fight with these small fry. A fight can be flashy or simple, depending on one's own interests.

"It's so hot! Is it on fire inside?"

As he broke through to the last door, Ye Ge stopped and looked at the iron wall with a puzzled expression. It was radiating an unusual heat, which reminded him of something. Without hesitation, he threw a punch, and the tank power from the Ghost Clan violently blasted open the last barrier, exposing the scene inside to Ye Ge.

"Mokou!"

"Night Song! Is that you? Why are you wearing armor!"

Looking at Fujiwara no Mokou, whose entire body was engulfed in flames, Yoru finally understood why the temperature inside was abnormally high: the flames from the phoenix had turned the room almost into a furnace.

"Who are you? How did you get out here!"

The original pureblood vampire stared in disbelief at the transformed Yoru, who ignored him and went straight to Mokou:

"Mokou, the women and children who have recently gone missing were all kidnapped by them. They want to take them back to the Scarlet Devil Mansion to raise!"

"what!"

Mokou was startled, then roared, her anger almost tangible. Flames unfurled behind her as she approached the vampires step by step.

"It was you... who kidnapped those women and children?"

"Kill them! We don't care about the casualties yet, kill that kid first! Without evidence, they can't blame us!"

Seeing that the plan to hold back the humans who had been transferred had failed, the pure-blooded nobleman's eyes flashed with ferocity, and his body transformed into a bat as he pounced on Night Song.

"This is a tricky ability; I don't have a strong area-of-effect attack."

They took out a drill to drive away the bats. Yoru and Mokou stood back to back, defending against the vampire's attacks from all directions. The dense blood aura almost dissipated Mokou's flames. Wounds had begun to appear on her body, but they were constantly healing. The immortality of the Hourai people granted her the ability to live forever.

"What do we do! If this drags on any longer, they'll really have completed their relocation!"

Mokou flapped her wings, repelling a vampire, and roared at Yoru, who was desperately defending behind her. It wasn't that she couldn't defeat these people; the power of the phoenix was sufficient to deal with these small fry. The problem was that the enemy also had a pure-blooded noble, coupled with their overwhelming numerical advantage and their hit-and-run guerrilla tactics. There was simply no way to break through in a short time.

"You're asking me? How would I know!"

Night Song was also very troubled. She couldn't use either the BAT energy bottle or the Cobra because using them would expose her identity. Who knew if Yakumo Yukari was watching her right now? If she switched to the Tora energy bottle, although she would have a means of area attack, Tora's tearing attack would be at a disadvantage against high-level vampires, and it might not be effective.

"If you don't find a way to die, you're the one who'll die. I'm from Penglai anyway, I'll definitely be able to collect your corpse!"

Meihong glared at her, narrowly avoiding the attack of the blood energy. She was also extremely anxious. They had been locked in a stalemate for so long, and she couldn't use a wide-range flame for the sake of the people. If this continued, those who had been kidnapped might never come back.

"What the hell, Mokou, are you really this heartless?" Yege exclaimed in shock. I was just thinking about how to fight alongside you, and you're already planning to carry me away? Should we call in a professional team?

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up!"

Mokou's urging annoyed Yoru. He suddenly grabbed Mokou's hand, slashed it hard, making a small cut, squeezing out a drop of blood, and under Mokou's puzzled gaze, summoned the magic box:

"Magic Box, create the Phoenix Energy Bottle!"

"Insufficient materials make it impossible to produce."

The magic box's cold voice rang out, and Night Song was dumbfounded. What kind of time was this to fail him like this? He asked urgently, "What do you mean? Wasn't it just one drop of blood? Why are there not enough materials?"
