Kamen Rider Zi-O, Dimensional Descent

As his classmates began to focus on their studies, Yan Ming also began his own homework.

----------------------

The bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class.

Before I knew it, a class period had passed... No, wait...

Yan Ming took out his phone and checked the time; it seemed to be lunchtime.

In other words, he spent the entire morning deciphering these unknown Enochian languages, and his result was that he translated about three or four related ancient documents in his own way.

If he were to publish the content on websites or academic institutions, it would inevitably have a global impact, but he doesn't like to do that.

Although I wanted to continue my homework, it was time to eat.

Even he couldn't withstand excessive mental exertion without food.

As for the knowledge learned at school... Yan Ming hadn't paid attention to the classes properly since the very first day of school, because those things were of no help to him at all.

His grades could be described as top-notch, but that was only because Yan Ming deliberately suppressed his performance. If he were too outstanding, he would only face all sorts of trouble.

Let's just buy some food.

After thinking about it this way, Yan Ming began to tidy up the things on the table.

"That...that person by the window over there, is it...Tokiwa-kun?"

"...Why did you suddenly bring him up?"

"No, it's just that I don't understand why no one will... talk to him?"

It seemed to be a new transfer student. Yan Ming wasn't sure who it was, but he knew it was a girl.

She and some other classmates were chatting quietly, not openly, but without any particularly malicious intent.

"As expected, he's a transfer student... The reason why everyone avoids him is simply because everyone is a little afraid of him."

"Fear?"

"Tokiwa Enmei can be said to be one of the urban legends of our Mitakihara High School."

A male classmate immediately started explaining things to her.

"At the beginning, everyone simply treated him as an ordinary classmate, and some people happily invited him to hang out... Well, although he had a somewhat cold personality, he was still very handsome, so quite a few girls and boys wanted to hang out with him."

“But those people… just talked to him for a while, and then around the second or third day, they stopped coming to school.”

"Eh...?"

The transfer student froze on the spot.

"The reason...what is it?"

"...because of some incredible phenomena."

The boy continued speaking, and the boys and girls around him who were discussing these things also became somewhat frightened.

“I once asked one of my classmates, and he told me that after he got home, he encountered supernatural phenomena.”

"You were just joking, weren't you?"

"He didn't tell me the specifics, but... everyone else who had contact with Shilun had described it that way."

He took a deep breath.

"...Those people said they saw something 'strange'."

""weird"…?!"

"Some people say they are ghosts, some say they are monsters from ancient Japanese folklore, and some say they are monsters from urban legends... In short, even those who did not see these things experienced some very dangerous events, and those events... were all related to supernatural phenomena."

"Of course, neither the school nor the police believed such a thing. After the investigation, nothing supernatural was found, and in the end there was no solution. But this is not the end."

"Later, someone seemed to have dug up Shilun's past. It seemed he was already like this when he was studying at another school. What's even more terrifying is his parents..."

"I know about the cruise ship accident a few years ago. A sudden storm completely swallowed the cruise ship at sea, and no one survived. Even the wreckage of the cruise ship is still missing."

"...His parents are in there?"

The others nodded, which sent chills down the spine of the transfer student.

"Some have even drawn a more terrifying conclusion from this."

"Varied…"

"The sea conditions that day made it impossible for such a storm to occur, but the storm appeared very suddenly, and... it seemed to be limited to the vicinity of the cruise ship, which was almost impossible."

"Some people speculate... perhaps it stems from Shilun's question."

"It was because Shi Lun's parents were on that ship that the cruise ship sank... No, perhaps even his parents were victims. In reality, it was only because his parents came into contact with him and were influenced by him that they encountered this supernatural event—"

"You guys."

When the students came to their senses, their homeroom teacher was standing behind them.

"Speaking ill of others behind their backs—is this how your teachers usually teach you? Who taught you to gossip about such things?!"

"Waaaaah—!!"

All the students, including the transfer student, ran out of the classroom in a panic.

The homeroom teacher took a breath and didn't chase after them... but instead looked at Yan Ming, who was still packing his things by the window.

“Shi Lun Yan Ming, you…”

"Thank you very much for your mediation, teacher, but I did not do anything because of what they said."

Even after being told that, Shi Lun Yan Ming still maintained a calm expression.

This, in turn, left his homeroom teacher speechless.

"Well, I should probably go have lunch too... As a teacher, you should also eat something. Shall we go eat now?"

"No, no... I'm not planning to go right now..."

But when the teacher came to her senses, she realized something.

She herself was already subconsciously resisting being with Shilun Yanming.

Yan Ming didn't say much. He packed his things, picked up his phone, and left the classroom.

The homeroom teacher turned her head and looked in the direction he left, her expression quite complex.

She felt remorse for her earlier resistance, and at the same time... she also cared about Shilun Yanming.

"That child seems to have been like this since he was very young... He's so talented, is he destined to live only in gossip...?"

Even the homeroom teacher could only shake his head and sigh deeply.

--------------------------

then.

On the rooftop of the school building, someone stood there.

He was holding a very thick book and wearing a gray coat and scarf.

From his hands.

Slowly emerging, a black and white object, like a clock face, appeared.

"Is he... the one who will walk the path to kingship... right here?"

These words were spoken with the weight of fate and ritual.

He smiled.

Continue to gaze at the Mitakihara High School in front of you.

Volume One: The Demon King Descends: Chapter One - Will a High School Student Become a King?

It was already past midnight.

The other students all had the idea of ​​having a good breakfast and lunch, but as mentioned before, Yan Ming didn't have a particularly strong concept of food.

Thinking he could just grab something to eat, he went straight from the third floor to the second floor, and on his way up the stairs, he had to pass by the classrooms around him.

These should be the classes from the second year of high school.

Because it was lunch break time, the areas in front of these classrooms became quite lively.

The students chatting and laughing around them created a stark contrast to Yan Ming, who remained silent at all times.

It was at this very moment.

Yan Ming was about to walk downstairs when someone grabbed his hand from behind.

"Aren't you even going to say hello?"

This was a somewhat light and melodious voice.

Just from her voice, one could tell that she was a very cute girl, and when Yan Ming turned around, that was indeed the case.

A girl who was about 1.6 meters tall and wearing the school uniform of Mitakihara High School stood behind him.

Seeing Yan Ming turn around, she smiled happily.

Good afternoon, Yan Ming!

Although rumors about Yan Ming circulated throughout the school, they were actually only most widespread in the senior year section.

In this area on this floor, where most students are in their second year of high school, they wouldn't know much about Yan Ming's situation.

That being said.

Even if Yan Ming's identity didn't attract much attention on this floor, the sudden appearance of such a cute and pretty girl calling out to a boy was still something that teenagers would naturally be more interested in.

Golden hair, golden eyes.

The hair at the back of her head appeared to be braided into two braids, and the headband was a very pretty orange butterfly hair accessory.

Her overall demeanor and physical structure are very well integrated.

At first glance, one can't help but think of the elegant demeanor of a noble lady, but the expression on her face gives off a lively and cheerful feeling.

The students around couldn't help but stare, but Yan Ming himself remained unmoved and cold.

This girl was one of the few people Yan Ming had a good relationship with at the school.

Suwa Aoi, that's her name.

"I didn't see you when I came to school this morning, even though we usually come together..."

"I may have gotten up a little late this morning, sorry."

"It's alright, but..."

Suwa Aoi tilted her head and looked at Yan Ming's hands; they were empty.

"Oh dear, Brother Yanming, you really didn't prepare anything today, just planning to buy some random food for lunch, right?"

They saw right through me.

Rather, this has happened many times before. Since I started attending this school, every time I run into Suwa Aoi at lunchtime, she asks me this question.

Yan Ming had already anticipated what would happen next.

"Your cooking skills are so excellent, but you only eat such simple food every day. Your brain and body won't be able to keep up with the nutrition."

"It's nothing, I'm just too lazy to cook. As long as I'm full, it's fine..."

"That won't do!"

Before anyone knew it, a beautifully designed lunchbox had appeared in Suwa Aoi's hand.

She held the lunchbox in both hands and shoved it directly into Yan Ming's arms.

"They expected this to happen! Yan Ming only eats fast food every day, and his body will gradually not be able to take it."

"Last night, I specially made two lunch boxes, and I just heated them up in the classroom microwave. They're still piping hot!"

Although she has a lively and cheerful personality, she is also very balanced. This just-right personality makes it easy to believe that Suwa Aoi is actually a young lady from a noble family with excellent upbringing.

"Well then, I'll head back to class now. I promised to have lunch with my classmates today, so I won't be going with Brother Yanming."

"Bye-bye~ Oh, remember to check your Line messages, I sent you so many this morning and you still haven't replied!"
