……

As Chen Shi rushed back to the anime world to act as a caring older brother and deliver the express, the famous kneeling scene in the video had come to an end.

[Looking at Nagasaki Suyo who was holding her hand tightly, Toyokawa Shoko narrowed her already cold eyes.

"How conscious are you to say such a thing?"

The stern voice seemed to contain power, forcing Nagasaki Suyo's lowered head up so that she and Toyokawa Shoko looked at each other.

"You are just an ordinary person, can you really bear the responsibility of other people's lives?"

The only sound between the two was a slight breathing sound. Seeing Nagasaki Motoyo wanting to nod but not daring to, Toyokawa Shoko's eyes flashed with disappointment.

After knowing that Nagasaki Motoyo had become an armored knight, she had thoroughly investigated the other party.

The purpose of this old friend entering this stage seems to be to use the winning reward of the Rhythm Knight Competition to reunite CRYCHIC.

Although the idea is not mature enough, it is indeed a solution. Without the pressure of money and resources, it can solve all the problems that ordinary bands will face.

But it's just for ordinary bands...

The family's decline was just a lie that Toyokawa Shoko made up to distance herself from the past.

"You will do anything. In other words, you will give up everything for others. What you said is so heavy! Can you really do it?"

"but I……"

Seeing that she had said this much and Nagasaki Motoyo still had no intention of letting go, Toyokawa Shoko sighed deeply.

"You really only think about yourself..."

"Ugh?"

"That's all."

In confusion and fear, Nagasaki Motoyo was suddenly pulled up by Toyokawa Shoko. The latter shook off the other's hand, turned around and walked towards the black car slowly approaching from the side of the road.

"Come with me. Since you are going to keep pestering me like this and voluntarily give up your position as the protected person, then I will let you know the truth."

……

Silently, she followed Toyokawa Shoko into Helheim. After the two of them walked in silence for a long time, Nagasaki Suyo finally witnessed with her own eyes "something" that had been truly hidden by the World Tree Consortium.

The moment she saw that thing, the girl's already very ugly face turned as pale as paper in an instant.

She retreated backwards in disbelief, lost her balance and fell to the ground, an incomparable fear filling her heart.

There was no need for much explanation from Toyokawa Shoko. She understood everything the moment she saw the scene in front of her.

"Got it? This is the truth about Helheim."

Without looking at Nagasaki Suyo who was sitting on the ground, Toyokawa Shoko closed her eyes, and her tone was inevitably filled with fatigue.

"At this point, do you still think that World Tree and I are wrong?"

"……Do not."

Nagasaki Suyo shook her head and squeezed out extremely bitter words from her red lips.

"This... absolutely cannot be made public. It's simply impossible..."

The scene returned to darkness. At the end of this episode, Toyokawa Shoko's voice slowly sounded, with the same bitterness as Nagasaki Suyo.

"Su Shi, enter the World Tree. Since you already know the truth, you are no longer qualified to withdraw."】

Accountant Ishigami: Gone? Impossible! I must be dreaming!

Cancer of the Earth: Ah!!! I really want to know the sequel, I feel like there are grapes crawling on my body!

It's just heavenly music: Damn! What did the pangolin say?

ZIO second generation: Is chicken soup here?

It’s simply the sound of nature: grass.

Guitar Hero: Is it true that forming a band is such a heavy task?

Ms. Guiqulaixi: It’s too, too twisted, but I just can’t help but want to keep watching it!

The bassist with no sense of existence: I am about to be sucked in by gravity! It's too rock!

Trail Blazers: I don’t know why, but it’s so cool to see Nagasaki Soyo break down the defense!

Nayako: Please, please broadcast one more episode! I can do anything!

[ ]: BYD, the most practical episode!

Miss Pink Fairy: You are a person whose mind is full of everyone~

Soramu: Oh no! Sister Ai Li has also been captured by gravity!

Guo Huang: Why is it that this is clearly the plot of Su Shi's rebellion, but I just want to laugh? I can't stop at all, help!

Demon Cluster: Too strong, "Gaimu" is so strong!

Because the effect of the "Shocking Kneeling" show was so explosive, the audience did not notice the abnormality of the video for a long time.

Just when everyone was GOing further and further away and having a blast, the video that had been black all the time suddenly reappeared.

The trailer for the spin-off started unexpectedly.

803: Zangetsu Baron Side Story Trailer

[“It all started from here…”

Unlike previous spin-offs, what surprised the audience was that the opening of this new spin-off was narrated by Mebius' lazy and charming voice.

As she narrated, the rusty door was pushed open with a creaking sound by a pair of soft hands. The blue-haired girl, who looked a little disheveled, took a deep breath and walked towards the long-abandoned building in front of her.

With every step she took, images of Kousaka Honoka, Nagasaki Suyo, Sid, Nishikino Maki, and a blonde girl the audience had never seen before flashed across the screen.

In the end, it stopped at a middle-aged man who looked somewhat similar to Toyokawa Shoko.

The man is in a filter that highlights an old-fashioned atmosphere. He turns the boss chair under him and looks towards the camera.

In his hand, there was a document. The surrounding environment seemed a little blurry due to the passage of time, but the font on it was deeply imprinted on Toyokawa Shoko's retina.

—Angrboda.

Little Eggplant: Angrboda? I remember that this should be a female giant in Norse mythology. The three children she gave birth to with Loki, the god of trickery, were Fenrir, Jörmungandr, and Hela, who later triggered Ragnarok.

Pure Love War God: What’s interesting is that the forest is called Helheim by the World Tree Consortium, and the owner of Helheim is Hela, the youngest daughter of the three sons. In addition, Toyokawa Shoko looks younger than she is now, so it seems that this spin-off tells the story of things before the timeline of the main Gaim film.

The Cutest Man in the World: Is that a prequel?

Accountant Ishigami: I am more concerned about who the two new characters are?

The Shirogane family’s fried noodles today: I don’t know about the one with blond hair, but judging from the appearance of the middle-aged man, he should be a relative of Toyokawa Shoko. Judging from his aura, could he be the boss of the spin-off?

Sleeping Kogoro: Isn't this hard to guess? The uncle is probably the villain of the spin-off, and the blonde girl is the victim!

Barus: Well, since Uncle Kogoro has spoken, this possibility can be ruled out.

Sleeping Kogoro: You will regret it (annoyed)!

Nayako: The uncle bought it, the villa is next to the sea.

Sleeping Kogoro: Okay, okay, just wait and see! The previous times were just small mistakes, this time I will show you the true strength of my great detective Kogoro!

……

Seeing that the netizens in the forum were curious about the new character, Shoko Toyokawa did not choose to join the discussion, and could only continue watching the trailer with a conflicted look on her face.

Others don't know the identities of these two people and can make bold guesses, but she knows it clearly and can even say that both of them have a great relationship with her.

One of them is his asshole father, and the other is his childhood sweetheart whom he hasn't seen for a long time.

When she saw that the two were confirmed to appear in the spin-off, Toyokawa Shoko felt that they were most likely to be in trouble.

She didn't think much of her bastard father who had been depressed and drunk all day long since the family fell into poverty. The more miserable his ending was in the spin-off, the happier she would be. It would be best if she could stimulate him and make him change a little.

But as for her childhood sweetheart, Sanjiao Chuhua, and thinking of Nagasaki Suyo who had just performed a "shocking kneeling" for everyone not long ago, the gentle Toyokawa Shoko felt a little bit reluctant.

"I can only hope that the ending won't be too tragic..."

[The preview continues.]

The clip about the middle-aged man lasted only a few seconds, and then immediately switched to heavy rain.

The green-haired girl who serves as the narrator appears in a corner of the screen, holding an umbrella and looking at Toyokawa Shoko who is sitting in the rain.

The dark green snake eyes were full of teasing, and the soft voice passed through the rain curtain and reached the ears of another person present.

"So, what are your choices?"

——My choice?

The world became quiet. Shoko Toyokawa closed her eyes, as if countless scenes were flashing back in her mind.

Finally, she opened her eyes again, slowly raised the green lock in her hand, and looked at the red knight standing in front of her.

"I will lay down my life for what I believe is right!"

"Watermelon!"

The screen returned to darkness as the new lock type started up. A flash of sword light appeared, and the crescent moon symbol of Armored Knight Zangetsu was cut out in the center of the screen. The title of the spin-off appeared in the audience's field of vision with the Japanese-style BGM.

"Kamen Rider Zangetsu"

Fruit King: Huh? That lock looks like a watermelon, but why does the sound effect differ?

Paramecium: Good man, I wouldn’t have reacted if you hadn’t told me.

Observer: What kind of fruit is Watermelon? I've never heard of it.

Gender is Hideyoshi: Are you serious, Akihisa?

Monitor of Class F: It means watermelon in English.

Kira: They are all watermelons, but are they differentiated? Does the watermelon lock type change depending on the user, or are there different models of watermelon locks?

Starburst Healing Slash: By the way, what kind of lock is the knight on the opposite side?

Hai Ye: It should be an apple. The shield she holds looks a bit like a peeled apple.
