Knights Don't Need a Youthful Romance Story

Kaito Daiki casually tossed the container holding Zi-O's desires into the dimensional barrier, and for a moment he was lost in thought.

After arriving in this world, he clashed with Tsukasa Kadoya several times, with Tsukasa Kadoya trying his best to stop his plans.

But having come this far, there's no turning back.

As for knights from other eras?

Once his plan is completed, the Heisei era will be separated from the world of Kamen Riders.

It won't be easy for those knights to find them.

"Being sentimental doesn't suit me."

Suddenly snapping out of his daze, Hai Dong Da Shu gave a self-deprecating laugh.

He shook his head and turned to leave.

The desires of 20 knights have been gathered, but that's not enough.

There are other desires as well.

Ordinary people, freaks, and the world's knights.

There is still much for Haidong Dashu to do.

He cannot stop until the plan is completed.

A dimensional wall, just like Tsukasa Kadoya's, flashed by, and Daiki Kaito's figure appeared on the rooftop of a five-story building.

Looking down at the pedestrians coming and going on the ground from its high perch, the Haidong Tree seemed so indifferent at this moment.

Hopefully, this thing will be useful.

With a USB-like object tossed up and down in his hand, Hai Dongda Shu kept scanning the pedestrians on the road.

Ordinary office workers, housewives buying groceries, idle hooligans, and students just out of school.

After observing for a while, Hai Dong Da Shu identified a person.

A boy who looks very gloomy.

They seemed to be students from a nearby school; their gloomy aura could be felt even from a distance.

Although there was a boy next to her talking incessantly, it was clear that he wasn't really listening.

The dimensional barrier appeared once again, passing over Daiki Kaito, but Daiki Kaito himself did not disappear; instead, the object in his hand disappeared.

That was a Gaia Memory, Puppeteer, that someone had 'given' to me before.

Without the boy noticing, the Puppeteer Memory appeared in his backpack, along with the instruction manual for the Gaia Memory.

There is nothing else besides it; there is neither memory nor interface.

Hai Dongdashu naturally knew that this thing was harmful to the human body, but so what?

He didn't really intend to give that guy the power.

Hai Dong Da Shu only needed what he desired.

"gone."

With a clap of his hands, Hai Dong Da Shu left this place.

Although he wanted to collect desires, he didn't dare to go too far for the time being and could only do it little by little.

If just one branch has already put them in such a sorry state, what would happen if they really alerted the behemoth that is the Human Rights Protection Agency? Their plans would probably be completely thwarted.

Fortunately, the Great Tree of the East Sea doesn't intend to stay in this world for long.

At worst, he can just stay away from the world after the Heisei era is completed.

After Hai Dong Da Shu left, the gloomy boy suddenly shivered.

"What's wrong, Masato?"

Wearing black-rimmed glasses, Aki Tomoya noticed his colleague's unusual behavior and asked her with concern.

He was also hoping that Masato Nakagi would help him recruit other people into the club.

"There's nothing wrong with Minister Aki."

Masato Nakagi shook his head and said.

Actually, it's not hard to tell from the way the two address each other that Masato Nakagi doesn't really have any affection for Tomoya Aki, the club president; it's just a simple relationship between a club president and a club member.

Aki Tomoya, on the other hand, acted like they were good buddies.

The two people's personalities are very clearly reflected.

Scratching his head, Aki Tomo didn't press the matter further.

He turned around and continued rambling on about the new game he had discovered yesterday and his gaming experience.

At the same time, he enthusiastically recommended it to Masato Nakagi.

To this, Masato Nakagi simply nodded perfunctorily.

Although he had only just heard about the game, he had already learned most of it from Aki Tomoya in just a few minutes, and he had no desire to play it at all.

As for Aki Tomoya's suggestion to discuss it again tomorrow after he's finished playing, Nakagi Masato didn't mind.

Based on his understanding of Aki Tomoya, it would definitely turn into Aki Tomoya's personal talk show, and he would just need to be a good listener.

He's been getting by like this for the past few days.

He wasn't interested in anything about the world's best visual novel.

I joined this club because Aki Tomoya told me that Sawamura Eriri would be joining, and I came to check it out out of curiosity. As soon as I arrived, Aki Tomoya pulled me aside and announced that I was joining the club.

I became a member of the commune without even realizing it.

He felt like an outsider in this club.

He couldn't understand the thought process of that fat guy named Chai Muzuo, and he didn't really want to have anything to do with him.

Department head Tomoya Aki is always immersed in his own world and doesn't care about other people's feelings.

As for the only girl in the club, Eriri Sawamura?

She never paid any attention to anyone other than Aki Tomoya, which made Nakagi Masato feel annoyed and a little jealous of Aki Tomoya.

"Oh! It's Luo Zhen!"

Just as Masato Nakagi was lost in thought, Tomoya Aki suddenly shouted loudly.

Looking up, they saw a boy wearing the same Soubu High School uniform walking towards them.

They seem like very difficult people to approach.

This is what Masato Nakagi thought.

At this moment, Luo Zhen looked somewhat gloomy, exuding an aura that kept strangers at bay.

"It is you."

Luo Zhen, who had just noticed Aki Tomoya, frowned and said.

Luo Zhen should have been at the research institute base at this time, but he had to come out for some special reasons.

"The novel I recommended to you before..."

"Sorry, I have something to do, I have to go now."

Before Aki Tomoya could finish speaking, Rojin quickly walked past the two of them.

Watching Luo Zhen's hurried departure, Aki Tomoya was also a little confused.

"Could it be that Luo Zhen forgot to bring his schoolbag back?"

These were the only possibilities that Aki Tomoya could think of.

Chapter Ninety: Desire is Growing

The next morning, Aki Tomo arrived at the classroom early.

Aki Tomoya was still a little disappointed that he couldn't get a clear answer from Luo Zhen about his opinion on that light novel yesterday.

He believed that Luo Zhen would be very grateful for his recommendation after reading the light novel.

But in fact...

"Huh? I didn't see it."

Faced with Aki Tomoya's excited question, Rojin responded expressionlessly.

So why is this guy so sure I'll read the light novels he recommends?

I remember I stuffed it into his desk drawer; if I were to ask, I should have asked a few days ago.

Luo Zhen seemed somewhat puzzled by this.

"Why?"

Aki Tomoya covered his head and asked incredulously.

It was as if Luo Zhen had done something utterly incomprehensible.

"What do you mean why? I didn't want to watch it, so I didn't watch it."

Sometimes Luo Zhenzhen genuinely wondered if Aki Tomoya had missed out on a stage of human evolution.

Otherwise, it's impossible to explain why this guy's emotional intelligence is so low.

It's a miracle that this child has grown up. He should be especially grateful to those around him for showing him mercy.

"but."

Aki Tomoya seemed to want to say something more.

In his logic, Luo Zhen should naturally accept his kindness and then read the light novel he recommended.

After you've read it, then have a proper discussion with him.

This is the normal process.

But in fact, Luo Zhen didn't even look at the light novels he recommended; to be precise, he didn't even flip through them.

This is something that Aki Tomoya finds completely incomprehensible.

Seeing Aki Tomoya's dazed expression, Rajin remained calm and didn't even feel angry.

What should I say?

I don't think there's any need to be angry with him.

Although Luo Zhen wasn't a particularly magnanimous person, he couldn't be bothered to argue with someone like Aki Tomoya.

Just don't provoke him.

For the entire morning, Aki Tomoya looked completely lost and dejected.

He had thought that Luo Zhen could become a like-minded companion.

After all, they got along well before (Aki Tomoya thought so).

As it turned out, reality gave Aki Tomoya a harsh slap in the face.

Luo Zhen didn't even bother to talk to him, let alone become his like-minded friend.

During lunch break, Aki Tomoya left the classroom dejectedly.

He planned to spend some time at the club; only there could he cheer himself up.

Watching Aki Tomoya leave, Sakamoto asked:

"What's up with him?"

As is well known, one of Sakamoto's special skills is entering the school gate at the exact moment.

Every day, Sakamoto has to engage in a battle of wits with the gatekeeper.

Today was no exception, so Sakamoto didn't know what had happened before, only that Aki Tomoya had been unusually quiet for a whole morning.

"This is probably what a lost youth is like."

After thinking for a moment, Luo Zhen said somewhat uncertainly.
