I, Madoka Kaname, am just a Kamen Rider passing by

"Swear allegiance to Faust, or kill me, return to DEM to accept punishment, and disappear from the face of the earth."

"Hey, there's really no choice!"

Complaining loudly about the unreliable options given by Tanya, Artemisia caught the flying lightsaber and threw it back into Tanya's hand.

"No, Al, you have to know that there are magical creatures these days. They are called licking dogs. No matter how badly they are treated, they will always shout "It smells good" and rub against you shamelessly."

"...Hmm, that seems to make some sense. Never mind, let's not talk about that for now. How are you going to escape, Tanya? Even I can't fly from here to the nearest land."

"In fact, there is a ship on this island. The exact location has been found out during the patrols. We will drive the ship to Southeast Asia and then abandon it. Once we get there, I will contact members of the organization to pick us up."

As for the reason for abandoning the ship? Nonsense, since DEM Company put the ship there, there must be a positioning device on the ship. All they need to do is go to Southeast Asia, contact Madoka to come over with a smoke gun in the name of tourism, and the two of them will be teleported back to Japan without anyone noticing, and Madoka will take the ship back.

"I always feel like you have been planning this for a long time, Tanya. Is this an illusion?"

"Nonsense! If you hadn't beaten me up and tied me up yourself, I would have run away long ago."

"Well."

Artemisia smiled awkwardly and turned her head away, trying not to look at Tanya.

……

"So amazing, it's just like the main character machine in those two-dimensional mecha anime..."

After changing into Homura Akemi's spare clothes and entering the cockpit of the Time God, Nia Honjo looked around with a look of surprise, but she was very sensible and did not touch the control buttons. She was not like a naughty kid who would mess around at all. She just observed carefully.

"The protagonist machine, that's really a compliment, Niya, my Time Demon is really just assembled from garbage and discarded industrial waste."

However, in response to Homura Akemi's honest words, Niya had an expression on her face saying, "I understand, Homura, you're being modest again."

No one believes the truth these days. It really shows that the world is going downhill and people’s hearts are no longer the same as they used to be.

In the end, Homura Akemi had no choice but to remain silent and silently check the condition of the engine and other equipment.

Now she is certain that this world is not her original world. The names of several Japanese prime ministers do not match at all, and the history of the world is also deviated. Niya also stated with certainty that there is no city called Mitakihara in Japan.

Not only that, when I was checking just now, I found that the time jumping device was also burned out. Now all it can do is teleport. If I want to travel through time again, I must find some suitable replacements.

But...is there really a suitable alternative in Japan in 2015?

Anyway, it will go straight to the bridgehead, so let’s go to Japan in this world first.

We will soon get into the main storyline.

For example, the white rabbit Shiono or something like that (laughs)

Chapter 52: Kamen Rider in Two

A month later, an unfinished building somewhere in Thailand.

Artemisia, who was wearing a white dress, found a chair from somewhere and sat in the corner of the room, reading a book silently. Tanya brought a basin of water under Artemisia's puzzled gaze and poured a transparent solution into it.

"Tanya, what are you doing?"

Artemisia poked her head out and looked at Tanya's strange behavior with curiosity.

"Need I say more? Of course I have to take off my disguise. Since you have chosen to join us, Faust, there is no need for me to hide my true identity. Al, you are a trustworthy companion, there is no doubt about that."

Now, a month has passed since the two "defected" from DEM. Although there were pursuers in the beginning, they gave up after being repelled several times, and there seems to be no further pursuit.

Then, under Artemisia's watchful eyes, Tanya began to "remove her makeup".

The brilliant gold dissolved into the water, revealing the light pink hidden in it. The turquoise blue contact lenses were removed, and the light golden eyes reappeared.

Finally, as the girl rubbed her face, a layer of soft flesh was torn off from her face, and her original appearance was once again exposed to the air.

The blonde, blue-eyed girl with a heroic air mixed with madness and elegance has disappeared, and the one who appears in front of Artemisia again is the pink-haired ball with lazy eyes.

"Yo, Al."

"Tan...Tanya...you call this makeup removal?!"

Holding her chin that nearly dropped to the floor, Artemisia looked in shock at the girl whose temperament and image had undergone a 180-degree change.

You call this a disguise? It's just a different person, right?!

"Al, you are still too young. You know, there are four major evil arts in this world, namely Chinese photo-editing, Korean plastic surgery, Japanese makeup, and Korean sex change! What I am doing is just a routine operation. If you want, you can wrap yourself in a chest wrap and play a heroic and beautiful boy. I can do it."

The girl blinked innocently and stuffed the "meat paste" in her hand into her bag under the gaze of Artemisia.

"So, this is what you really are like, Tanya?"

Putting the book down, Artemisia quickly rushed to the girl and kneaded her face. The girl didn't mind too much and just let her do whatever she wanted.

Anyway, they are all cute girls, so she doesn't mind this level of physical contact. If it was Shidao, the girl would have slapped him and told him to go somewhere cool...ah, if it was Shiori, just rubbing his face would be acceptable.

Well... although she doesn't want to admit it, she is indeed moving further and further in the direction of femininity.

After all, the soul of Madoka herself still remained in her body at that time, and because she was still young and had to live in Kaname's family, she had to live as the girl "Madoka Kaname" no matter what.

Plus, she gradually got used to it, or maybe she got too into the role? Anyway, she is now very similar to girls, and the only thing that hasn't changed is her sexual orientation.

Marrying a man is absolutely impossible. She will always only like Madoka, Homura, and Reishi-chan.

Thinking of this, the girl couldn't help but feel a pang of lactic acid. Suppose one day in the future she really returned to the real world, how would she face her parents?

——Humans, who are good at adapting and getting used to the environment, are truly terrifying creatures.

"Okay, stop pinching me... Let me introduce myself again. My name is Kaname Madoka, and my main job is the manager of the Nascita Coffee Shop in Tengu City. My secondary job is the leader of the Faust Organization, a civilian, cadre, action planner, spy, assassin, and cleaner..."

Artemisia slapped away the hand that was pinching her face and was still studying it. She took two steps back, gently pressed her hand on her chest, and introduced it with a "proud" look on her face.

"Wait, wait a minute, Tan... Xiaoyuan, what's the matter with your part-time job? Are you the only one in your organization?!"

"NO, NO, NO, how is it possible? There is no such thing as an organization of one person."

The girl said with a pleasant smile, shaking her finger at the panicked Artemisia.

"That's good. You can joke around, but at least remember the situation."

Artemisia let out a long sigh and complained to the girl in dissatisfaction, but her expression was obviously much more relieved.

"In fact, our organization has two more people besides you. Isn't that amazing... haha."

Grabbing the girl by the collar, Artemisia questioned her loudly.

"What's the difference between two people and one person, especially if you are included! Is it too late for me to jump out of the car now?"

"But you have no place to stay, no matter if it's the SSS that was bribed or the DEM company that has bad intentions."

Although it is true that the world's technological progress is dependent on DEM, but tracing back to the source, the Eurasian air disaster and the South Kanto air disaster were actually caused by the three founders of DEM. If you look deeper... everything was blamed on the army of a certain country where the magician is from.

At this time, in the empty abandoned building, the sound of high heels stepping on the ground could be heard not far away. After a moment, the footsteps stopped in front of the door of the room where the two were. Then, under the gaze of the two, a pink-haired ball poked its head out.

"..."

"..."

Artemisia's eyes widened. She first looked at the pink-haired ball who stuck his head out of the door with an embarrassed look on his face, and then looked at the pink-haired ball who was pulled up by her collar.

Exactly.

Apart from some slight differences in their eyes, temperament, and eye color, it would be impossible to tell the two apart if they met for the first time.

"Ah, let me introduce you briefly. This is another person from our Faust organization."

"I've heard about it from her before, right, Miss Artemisia? Thank you very much for taking care of this useless fool of mine during this period of time."

Bowing slightly towards Artemisia, Madoka smiled at her and said.

"Well, let me introduce myself. My name is Kaname Madoka, the second member of Faust, and part-time manager of the Nascita coffee shop in Amamiya City."

"Hmm, I see. Miss Kaname is also...wait a minute, you said your name is Kaname Madoka, but the one next to me also said his name is Kaname Madoka...so, what's going on between you two?!"

As if realizing something, Artemisia quickly asked Madoka.

"Oops, I forgot to mention this. I'm really sorry. Let me introduce myself again." x2

The girl who was thrown to the ground by Artemisia brushed off the dust on her body and ran to Madoka's side.

The two stood side by side and spoke to Artemisia in unison.

"We are both Kamen Rider Madoka Kaname, and we are also two Kamen Riders in one. Please give us your guidance, Al."

"So, let's not talk about what the hell is Two in One, but what exactly is Kamen Rider?!"

Chapter 53: Wowga the Savior (Fog)

"... Two elves actually opened a coffee shop in Tiangong City. I still can't accept it."

Sitting at the table, Artemisia looked at the pink-haired ball busy in the kitchen and couldn't help feeling a lot of emotions.

A year ago, he was a magician whose mission was to destroy the elves and bring world peace. But now, he has turned to two elves and is completely dependent on them for food, clothing, shelter and transportation.

Although her identity was approved and there was no problem except for the name Altria Pendragon which had many flaws, Artemisia chose to stay in this store as a waitress because she had no relatives in Japan and was a foreigner.

Of course... there are more reasons to stay here.

Thinking of this, Artemisia turned her gaze to the pink-haired girl who was sitting opposite her, holding a cup of Black Hole Coffee and leisurely enjoying her daily life.

"There's nothing strange about an elf opening a shop. Besides, we were just ordinary people a few years ago. We were just given spirit crystals by chance. Also, Yuan and I only have one crystal, so I'm still a human now."

Since it was morning, and knowing that Origami was recently attending AST's training camp, the girl also appeared in the store at the same time as Madoka... She was in long-hair mode, and just used a little "alien specialty" hair growth agent, which seemed to have been developed by an alien race that was prone to hair loss.

"That's right."

The elves are human. Although this incident did shatter Artemisia's worldview at first, after she learned the origin of DEM, the truth about the three sinners and the Eurasian air disaster from the two people (the elves), and the fact that DEM had betrayed her heart and the dark side she had glimpsed, she finally accepted these chilling truths.

"Then here comes the question. Why did you two form Faust? Putting aside the fact that there are only three members including me, I have been here for almost a year. So far, apart from occasionally finding an abandoned construction site to train, there has been no action at all, right?"

I thought that someone like me who was "forced" to join a strange organization reluctantly would encounter the disgusting situation of being worked overtime by a shady company and having my salary deducted, but the result was unexpectedly good.

Three meals a day, accommodation, afternoon tea every day, dessert after dinner, and we go out for picnics together every Sunday. All you need to do every day is waiter work, but the salary is much higher than the average level in Japan.

Are you two philanthropists from somewhere?!

Japanese office workers will cry when they find out about the treatment you give them here. They will really cry to the point of dying on the spot!

However, although Artemisia specifically asked about this, she was choked by the pink-haired girl in the end, saying, "Do you want to work overtime for 12 hours without overtime pay?" Especially sometimes, some companies (factories) have poor performance recently, so they give out 30% of the salary first.

"Darkness should naturally lurk in chaos..."

"Please speak human language."

Putting down the newspaper in her hand, Artemisia complained and made a please gesture.

To be honest, Artemisia always feels that her painting style is getting more and more off track, and she is almost becoming a critic.

“It’s so troublesome to cause trouble. Although it is defined as an evil organization by the Japanese DEM branch and the guys from the Ground Self-Defense Force, Al, you see how cute I am, how can I be scary or evil? If you don’t believe me, just listen, I will cry~”

"What the hell! So what was the reason for you two to establish Faust?!"

"Well……"

Putting down the cup, the pink-haired girl narrowed her eyes as if she was really thinking seriously, and the lazy atmosphere on her body was swept away. She touched her chin, as if she was brewing something.

Seeing this, Artemisia couldn't help but swallow, straightened her face, and looked at the girl seriously.

Finally, after ten minutes of silence, the pink-haired girl coughed lightly, then folded her hands over her chest and spoke seriously under Artemisia's earnest gaze.

"We are here to save this cruel world."

"No one would believe that! Power, wealth, fame, aren't these what normal people pursue? Even if they are elves, do they really have no desires or evil thoughts at all?"

Perhaps because she had seen the dark side of DEM, Artemisia, who was originally honest, kind and willing to believe in hope, successfully became suspicious under someone's "training".

"This is not a joke. Listen carefully, Al. For me personally, reputation has no value. Money and power are even more redundant. I am not suitable to be a ruler or a king. Simply put, I don't have the capacity to bear everything."

Spreading her hands, the girl looked indifferent.

"Besides, this is the real truth. You can believe it or not."

She and Madoka are just like Kamen Rider Kadoya, passing by and just want to live happily and freely.

The job of becoming a superior person, for example, the leader of Great Shocker or the most benevolent demon king, should be left to other people. She just wanted to hold Madoka in her arms and enjoy the warm afternoon sunshine together.

"I really believed you. Well... let's just leave it at that. You saved my life. I am very satisfied with my current life. It's great that I am not lying on a cold operating table or being brainwashed into a tool for fighting."
