The Knight of the Second Generation of Demons Re-enacts

The door was pushed open, and a girl wearing a white hood walked in. If Shiori was present, he would be able to recognize at a glance that she was the one who gave him the Dragon Knight in Avalon.

"Oh, you're back. How's it going? Is the problem finally solved now?"

"..."

The hooded girl didn't reply, but just shook her head and seemed to be chewing something in her mouth.

"It hasn't been resolved yet? Are you saying there will be new crises?"

The hooded girl nodded, still chewing.

"how so."

Liusu showed a lost expression, then looked at the hooded girl curiously.

"By the way, what are you eating?"

The hooded girl held out the object in her hand, which turned out to be the local specialty of Tiangong City - soybean bread. 】

End of video...

It should have been like this, but just when everyone saw the familiar black screen and were about to leave and do their own thing, the word "Preview" appeared on the screen.

064: Speculations about the trailer

The appearance of the white word "Preview" on the dark screen made people from all worlds stop and leave.

The playback of the several exposure videos so far has remained in a fairly fixed pattern.

It will play the latest video at the same time every day, and there will be no interference other than posting barrage comments until the end of the video. It will return to normal immediately after the video ends.

It comes and goes quickly, and although the audience calls it a "video" for easier understanding, it actually gives people a feeling that is closer to a supernatural phenomenon.

There is no way to communicate. Showing up on time every day is as natural as the sunset and sunrise.

In fact, many scientists and mystics have proposed many hypotheses about the phenomenon of "video". Among them, the more mainstream view is to regard it as a mirage phenomenon from a higher dimension. They believe that everything they see now is a projection of scenes from other worlds, but the principles and forces involved are too complicated and come from a higher dimension, so modern humans cannot understand it.

So when this "preview" appeared, academic leaders around the world were excited.

Smart people began to think about what changes this change would bring and what impact it would have on the world.

And the sharp-minded genius among them noticed that the "video" did not seem to be free.

Because trailers are a very common marketing method, they can effectively mobilize people's expectations and promote their desire to consume; but all the videos so far have been played for free, and even the mysterious "Kamen Rider Oma Forum" has not asked for any compensation from users. In this case, why bother to mobilize people's expectations?

The bosses, with too little intelligence, can only speculate that the "video" is being paid in some way they are unaware of.

Of course, all this has nothing to do with Chen Shi, who was eating snacks and watching videos with the Hikigaya siblings at Hikigaya's house. He looked at the two words "preview" in the video.

The first reaction is...

Mmm, that flavor.

He had wanted to complain before, although the special effects of Kamen Rider in the video were better than those of Azusa, and the storyboards and camera movements were also top-notch, making it look very refreshing, but without the OP, ED and trailer, Kamen Rider always lacked that flavor.

It’s okay that the famous scenes from Chen Shi’s previous life have not been broadcast yet, but if it continues like this, some of the famous scenes in the future will probably lose their souls.

Chen Shi, who has accepted the reality and gradually started to lie down and enjoy the status quo, has personally contacted the "production team" of the video several times to discuss the matter. At the very least, he has to personally recreate those classic knight bgm.

He must never let classics like "Hosei Eternal Dream" and "Then there is only one answer" live only in his own heart.

Fortunately, the "production team" is not a pushover. Although only a trailer has been released so far, change is a good thing. I believe the famous scenes in his mind will not be too far away.

The thought of seeing the famous scene in Saber with 1000% grass growth in the near future makes me happy: Gokawa Shiori running.

Chen Shi almost couldn't help laughing out loud, and silently decided in his heart that when the time comes, he would personally rush to the battle world to watch Shizhi's expression when he saw that scene.

"Shiori, my eight perfect abdominal muscles are counting on you."

"What?"

Although Hikigaya Hachiman couldn't see the scene of Shiori's sudden tremor in the battle world, he could still feel the deep malice from his sudden and inexplicable words, and he moved his position spontaneously, getting closer to his sister.

"I mean, what do you think this trailer will play?"

"This is it."

Hikigaya Hachiman stroked his chin, thought for a while and said.

"It should be information about the southern base, or the information about the girl in the white hood. These are the key information about Kamen Rider Saber that I have seen so far."

"Well, that makes sense, but it's still too sweet. You clearly have a pair of dead fish eyes. I didn't expect it to be sweet instead of salty!"

"Dead fish eyes won't affect the taste!"

Hikigaya Hachiman complained.

"The so-called trailer, after all, is just a gimmick to whet people's appetite. Since it is a gimmick, it is impossible to answer people's questions. Instead, it will set traps and arouse the audience's curiosity."

Chen Shi chuckled, and a barely perceptible glimmer of time flashed in his eyes.

Well, yes, this person secretly used Zi-O Rabbit's ability to predict the future in order to show off. It's really despicable.

“I guess this trailer will introduce a brand new boss to attract the audience’s attention.”

"A brand new boss? Why do you feel that way?"

Hikigaya Komachi, who was standing by, was also completely intrigued by Chen Shi's words. Although Hikigaya Hachiman didn't say anything, he began to listen carefully.

"Nothing, just speaking from experience as a boy."

"What kind of strange experience is this? Why don't I have it?"

"You've become slow, my soul friend is better than a penguin."

"Since you are a soul friend, please don't call me by the wrong name!"

"Wow, Brother has found such a good friend without me noticing. Komachi is so happy."

"Just now, Komachi got the higher score."

"Right!"

"That's enough, come back to the point, why did you make such a guess?"

Feeling a little tired, Hikigaya Hachiman decided to give up thinking for the time being.

"It was clearly Hachiman who started to complain first. What a willful child he is."

"Brother, don't be willful outside. Brother Chen Shi and I are the only ones who will accommodate you."

"Yes, yes, it's my fault, okay."

Hikigaya Hachiman, looking at Komachi who was singing the same tune with Chen Shi, actually had the illusion that they were siblings. Wait, if that was the case, wouldn't he be able to marry Komachi? What a bargain!

Bah, what a joke, Komachi’s brother can only be me, Hachiman the Great Bodhisattva, well, I’ll find a chance to get rid of this guy Chen Shi.

"..."

Chen Shi felt speechless as he watched Hikigaya Hachiman, who was in intense mental activity. You, a guy with a sister complex, should have a limit.

What? This is Chiba? That's fine.

"Ahem, Hachiman-kun, haven't you discovered yet that the essence of this so-called Kamen Rider is a special effects hero movie?"

"You mean, ah! That's true."

Hikigaya Hachiman is not a stupid person. It was just that the concept of Kamen Rider did not exist in this world, which made him unable to connect the two together for a while. Now, after being reminded by Chen Shi, he thought about it and found that the deployment mode of Kamen Rider is indeed very similar to special effects hero movies.

Seeing that he understood, Chen Shi continued speaking.

"The eternal theme of special effects hero films is fighting. Now that the boss Wang Jian is gone, we need to introduce a new boss."

065: Response to the trailer

"The eternal theme of special effects hero films is fighting. Now that the boss Wang Jian is gone, we need to introduce a new boss."

As Chen Shi spoke with confidence (because he had predicted the future), the video screen began to change, as if to verify his words.

[“Tread, tap, tap…”

Rhythmic footsteps echoed in the dim space. With the weak light provided by the few candles in the room, one could barely tell that this was a huge room similar to a library.

The owner of the footsteps walked slowly but with a clear purpose as he walked towards a dark grey book placed on a pedestal.

The camera gives a close-up of the book.

There is a name written on it using unknown characters, but even illiterate people who have not received formal education can instinctively understand the meaning of this name.

The Book of Destruction.

If I had to translate it, this is roughly what the title of this book means. 】

Dr. Lobster: Book of Destruction, hey, this name doesn’t sound good. We just solved Wang Jian’s problem, but there are new problems so soon?

L: Although the light is dim, I can still make out some details. The architectural style here is very similar to that of the North Base. If I'm not mistaken, this is the South Base.

Shining Asuna: In other words, the owner of the footsteps is most likely the enemy that Ms. Kotori mentioned?

Betting on Grandfather's Name: This is very possible. Now that Wang Jian, the person who tried to fight against him (?), has left the stage, it is time to take action. The timing and motivation are sufficient.

Super high school level light music club: Judging from the footsteps, it seems to be a tall and thin adult male, and the steps are very wide. Girls' footsteps would not be that heavy.

Chairman of DEM: Who is it? It really makes me curious, haha.

[The camera in the video gradually approaches the Book of Destruction, and a low narration begins.

"When the Book of Destruction is released, the world will be drenched in darkness."

The book opened its pages, and what was reflected on it was not words, but a dim picture, and tense background music sounded.

In the picture, a blonde girl stands quietly in a ruined fantasy world. Her gaze towards the camera is very empty. The red color, which clearly symbolizes passion, gives people the illusion that she is staring at dead water.

"The end of the world has come."

An ethereal voice came out of the blonde girl's mouth, and an orange holy sword appeared in her hand, with bird-like feather decorations on it emitting sparks.

The sparks ignited and expanded in the air, eventually converging into a flying phoenix, filling the entire screen with flames.

The screen returns to darkness again, with only the tense background music continuing.

The narration appeared in vigorous and powerful fonts.

"To challenge this immortal swordsman..."
