Kamen Rider Zi-O, Dimensional Descent

"You guys... were all suddenly told those things by me, so it's understandable that you were scared at that time."

"Please rest assured, I am just like you, a living, breathing human being, and..."

Mami Tomoe once again revealed her true thoughts.

"I will fight to protect...those who need protection. I will never become what people say in the news, so please don't worry."

The two girls' apologetic words were accepted by Mami Tomoe, who then revealed her true thoughts and stopped running away.

Clearly, all of this came as far too abrupt as Sakura Kyoko had imagined.

but…

"I don't know exactly what happened..."

Still with a lollipop in her mouth, Xingzi racked her brains but couldn't figure it out.

"Anyway, Mami seems to be really okay now... Is that alright? Anyway, we can just ask her later if anything comes up."

So—the two magical girls left the crowd as soon as possible afterward, and were no longer filled with negative emotions as they had when they arrived.

All of this was observed by someone standing on high above.

"It looks like everything's fine over there."

Yan Ming stood on the top of a building.

Since many people have witnessed Mami Tomoe personally defeating the witch and protecting the citizens, this information will likely gradually influence the online environment... at least it won't be as overwhelmingly negative as before.

Then, those who only maliciously slander others may continue to create false defamation, but as long as Mami Tomoe continues to do this and fights to protect others, this positive information will definitely be widely disseminated.

At least journalists and the vast majority of people would certainly not record false information. In this way, although it is impossible to change things all at once, it can at least help Mami Tomoe regain her spirits.

As for Yan Ming... staying in the same place was too troublesome, so he simply left.

What follows—

"Now that we've dealt with Mami Tomoe's situation, it's time to get down to the main stuff."

That's right... Yan Ming's real target is that magical girl named Yuzuki Hana.

However, finding her wouldn't be difficult if it were just a matter of finding her, but according to Homura Akemi, she's not even from this world...

This way, they couldn't obtain any information about her, nor could they know why Teed insisted on having her by his side.

However, Yan Ming had certainly taken this into account.

Or rather...it would be more accurate to say that someone will come to his aid.

The next moment, Yan Ming seemed to realize something.

He looked up into the distance and slowly uttered the following words.

"...Have they already started, those guys?"

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

wow-

The warehouse door was opened, and a young girl entered directly there.

"What a troublesome guy..."

Before leaving, Yuzuki Hana hid in the shadows for a while... and witnessed an incredible scene.

Mami Tomoe, who was supposed to be waiting there for the witch to kill her out of despair, was actually saved by that Shirin Enming.

"Why did that guy have to show up at this time? It's so annoying!!"

Shilun Yanming is a man who often causes great trouble for Tide's plans.

Yuzuki's beautiful expression gradually became distorted due to her displeasure. She began to feel annoyed and intensely hostile towards anyone who might cause trouble for Tide's plan.

But that kind of man was someone she could never defeat.

"Damn it...damn it, damn it! If only there was a way to get rid of him!"

She kicked the wooden block under her feet as if venting her anger.

The wooden block flew into the empty warehouse, followed by an echoing sound.

"…Wait."

It was only then that she realized something was wrong.

Jie Yuehua quickly looked inside the warehouse... It was empty, not a single person was there?

Where did all those magical girls who were tricked and deceived by her go?

"What's going on... this...?!"

Just then, the voice came from behind.

Footsteps.

"—!!"

She immediately turned around and saw... a young man.

He appears somewhat timid... but his aura makes it impossible for anyone to associate him with the word "timid."

"You...you did this?"

He did not speak.

She slightly raised her head, and at that moment, Jieyuehua noticed something even more.

The other person had something like a belt wrapped around their waist.

"You must be the girl named Yuzuki Hana."

The young man raised his head, and his eyes revealed...crimson red eyes.

"Recklessly attempting to cross time and space using your own power... could very well lead to dangerous situations."

"Who...who are you?!"

An aura that is too terrifying.

Yuzuki quickly scattered the Seeds of Sorrow around her—instantly summoning several witches.

But the young man stood calmly in place.

He raised his head slightly, showing no fear, and spoke calmly.

"It's coming, Momotaros."

"Ah...it's been so long since we've seen you, Ryotaro!!"

Another time-traveling king, who came from across time and space, also descended upon this place.

Volume Nine: The Demon King Appears: Chapter 422: Spacetime Coordinates Across Worlds

The current situation greatly surprised Yuzuki Hana.

Why... why does this guy appear right after we just returned to the magical girl community? Where did he come from?

Regardless, the unusual situation in the settlement was definitely caused by him.

"Don't think you can go back unscathed...!"

Without even thinking, Yuzuki Hana unleashed all the hostility that had been accumulating in her heart.

They didn't even care whether the other person was an ordinary person or not.

As he pulled a handful of Lamentation Seeds from his pocket and scattered them forward, the seeds emitted streaks of black light and began to tremble violently.

Boom—!!

The tiny warehouse was almost instantly burst open by several towering figures.

There are five in total, and they are all witches.

The tallest of them is about two meters high, and each witch looks terrifying... completely unlike anything that could appear in the real world, an absolutely ominous existence.

With so many witches, even a group of ordinary magical girls would definitely not be able to defeat them.

However, the young man directly opposite him didn't care at all.

He let the witches rush toward him, but he simply swept the ticket-like object toward his waist.

"Transformation."

next moment.

Within the dilapidated ruins of the warehouse, an intense red light shone directly from the bottom of the rubble.

"Sword Form!"

Boom! The vast majority of the witches were thrown back by the powerful impact.

"Varied…"

This scene shocked Yukika again, and she immediately opened her eyes wide and stared ahead.

A figure slowly emerged from the crimson shockwave.

Compared to the previous young man, this newly appeared figure was much taller, and seemed to have lost the enigmatic aura he had before.

…More than anything, it has transformed into an extremely majestic aura.

"Hmph, I'm here! Reporting for duty—!"

A warrior wearing red and white armor.

He held a crimson sword, striking a very distinctive pose, and stood still.

"You've transformed... You're that guy named Shilun Yanming's partner, right?!"

"You were just unlucky this time."

They did not hold back their words just because the other person was a young girl.

Momotaros... or rather, Den-O after his transformation, casually pointed the tip of his sword at the ground, hands on his hips.

"I've always been enduring the frustrations of this world, but... things are completely different now."

"I've regained... found the perfect partner for me. That's right, it's not just a simple body for fighting."

"It's a genuine transformation, a complete metamorphosis where we become one!"

What is this guy saying...? It's meaningless... I can't understand it at all...

That's how it is; the in-form Denki is not going to stop at a time like this.

"Don't go too far."

"...Hmph, of course I know my limits."

Listening to the words spoken by the person in his heart, Den-O couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Then--

He twirled his sword and walked straight toward the five witches.

"I did it! I did it! I did it!!"

In the short time it took to turn around, the crimson figure had already leaped up.

And I saw the blade in his hand flash with light... and it slashed down.

Snap!

The blade struck a witch directly in the chest and continued downwards.

With just one sword strike, a deep gash appeared on the witch's chest, and blackish-red blood continued to gush out.

If it were just the Den-O from before, when he was casually using random people's bodies to fight, he probably wouldn't have been able to defeat so many witches.

But after using the most suitable body... the body of the singularity to fight, this level of enemy is not even a fight.

The red-clad Den-O stood in the center surrounded by witches, advancing instead of retreating, gripping the sword blade with renewed force and swinging it in a crescent shape in all directions.

"Haa!"

Red lightning flashed at the tip of the blade, increasing its power in tandem with Momotaros's heightened emotions.

With just that, the sword light that spread out directly tore apart the biological armor on the chests of the five witches.
