【Go-Badaa-Ba.】

【"Um?"】

[Looking at the three people present, Badaa raised his eyebrows and said in surprise. ]

[“I thought I was the first one to arrive. I didn’t expect you two to be so fast. Where are the other players?”]

[“Could it be possible that he encountered Linduo’s warriors on the way and accidentally exposed his identity, so he was surrounded and chased away by them?”]

[“——Your mouth is still as ugly as ever, you biker zord with low taste.”]

[Before Baruba could answer, another female voice with a strong sense of impatience sounded from behind him.]

[Two figures walked out from under the pillar on the other side. The first one to appear was a woman dressed in a luxurious purple snake-print top and a hip-hugging short skirt. Every step she took with her black high heels made a loud rubbing sound on the ground. The harshness of the sound matched the annoyed expression on her face. She walked towards the few people with a proud cat-like step.]

【Go-Zazaru-Ba.】

【Behind Zazaru was a man whose dressing style was too "normal" compared to all the Gurongis present. He was wearing a black T-shirt, white shorts, a pair of white sneakers, and a mushroom-shaped head. Except for the purple lip gloss on his lips, his aesthetics were almost the same as those of a normal person.】

[It looked at the rest of its companions listlessly, and put its hand on its lips. It looked so bored that it wouldn't be surprising if it yawned the next second.]

[“You’re the only ones here? Just announce the rules and start the game. I’m almost getting tired of waiting.”]

[The man muttered, followed Zazaru closely and stood in front of Baruba.]

【Go-Jaraji-Da.】

[“Alright, I’ll listen to you.”]

[To Jaraji's surprise, Baruba actually agreed to his proposal, which was not really a proposal, and announced the start of the meeting with a blank expression.]

[“Wouldn’t you like to wait a little longer? After all, the other players haven’t arrived yet. Isn’t it a bit too hasty now?”]

[Gadoru frowned upon hearing this and asked.]

[“We’ve waited long enough. It’s time to make everything clear. For the others who haven’t arrived yet, just let Gooma notify them one by one.”]

[Baruba glanced at him and said calmly.]

[“But before we start the “dark game”, there is another game that needs to be played. It is a game for the group leader, and it can also be regarded as a warm-up.”]

"Come out, Me-Garima-Ba."

[After the words fell, a figure walked out from the pillar behind Baruba, and a pair of rose-red eyes looked at all the Gurongi of the "GO" Group present, his eyes were full of burning fighting spirit. ]

[“Just wait, I will soon become the same as you——”]

【“Then, I will surpass you!”】

[Faced with the challenge from the strongest Gurongi of the "ME" group, all the players of the "GO" group reacted differently. 】

[Jaraji and Badaa looked indifferent, Zazaru frowned and looked displeased at the "junior" who was speaking in a superior manner, Gamego glanced at her coldly and ignored her, while Gadoru nodded slightly in appreciation...]

【With everyone looking at her in different expressions, Baruba raised her hand, revealing the golden striker ring on her finger.】

[“Then let’s get started.”]

【“Before “GO”, the last game for “ME”. ”】

……

["...Mr. Kosaka."]

[Zaimokuza's voice sounded faintly in the silent attic, and Kousaka Kyousuke lowered his chin to look up at the skylight, staring at him quietly.]

[“I may not be as amazing as you, Mr. Kosaka. If I didn’t have this belt, I would probably have always been just an ordinary person, living an ordinary life.”]

[He stroked his abdomen, as if he could feel the Yamadam Spiritual Stone buried deep in his body through the bandages, and spoke softly.]

[“Actually, when I first got it, I was very panicked. I didn’t know why I became like that, and why I had to fight those monsters, even though it was for self-protection at first... until I saw the tears that Shika shed after losing his father.”]

[“At that time, I probably saw my own shadow in her. I saw myself many years ago, after losing my parents and Hachiman, and becoming almost penniless.”]

【“…”】

【Kousaka Kyosuke just listened to him talking to himself and remained silent.】

[“And precisely because I know what that feeling is, I have made up my mind - I will fight to protect everyone’s smiles, so that those monsters can no longer take away everyone’s smiles.”]

[“…This is why I fight. It’s that simple.”]

【Zaimokuza put down his palm and looked up at Kousaka Kyosuke. The two pairs of eyes of the same color stared at each other, and through the gaze, they understood each other's thoughts.】

[“These Gurongi are becoming stronger and stronger. Even Kuuga, who has used his true power, cannot defeat them now. We must use even more powerful power.”]

[“To become stronger, I need a stronger power, a power that can further surpass the limits of my form, so that I can evolve once again.”]

[“No matter what the price, no matter what the pain, I will keep fighting and keep getting stronger until all of this is over and all the Gurongis fall into eternal rest. I will not stop punching... even if I don’t like doing it.”]

[He closed his eyes gently, and when Zaimokuza opened them again, there was no hesitation in his eyes, only a rock-hard determination.]

[“I will continue to fight. This is the path I have chosen.”]

[“If all this is really coming to an end… Mr. Kosaka, can you stay with me until the end?”]

[Looking at the hand stretched out in front of him, Kousaka Kyosuke smiled, a smile that was helpless and carefree. ]

【Snapped! 】

[He stretched out his hand and slapped the palm of the wood seat, and then said in his surprised gaze. ]

[“Before that – let’s work hard to create a good ending and put a relatively satisfactory end to everything that shouldn’t have happened.”]

[“And what are you talking about now? Didn’t I tell you about this a long time ago?”]

[“When you set out on this journey again, I will see you off.”]

1. A blood-sacrificing ritual (three-in-one)

Chiba Prefecture, Chiba Benbun High School, health room.

"Although to be fair, this scene is indeed quite touching, but..."

"Why do I feel so wrong right now?"

Looking at the two people in the light curtain who were smiling at each other in tacit understanding, and listening to the screams of the group of female creatures outside whose volume broke through the air raid alarm by who knows how many deaf ears, Kousaka Kyosuke slapped his forehead with one hand, and his eyes that showed between his fingers were full of despair.

At this point, let alone other people, even he himself began to doubt whether there was something wrong with his future self's sexual orientation. Otherwise, why would he leave all the beautiful women around him and choose to hang out with that dead rabbit all day long.

"……Well!"

As soon as he imagined some taboo scene in his mind, Kousaka Kyosuke felt cold all over, and completely gave up the idea of ​​actively looking for Zaimokuza in reality.

"a……"

His good sister, Kousaka Kirino, had similar thoughts and was also looking at the two people on the screen with a complicated expression and a blush on her face.

A picture emerged in her mind:

One day, my future self went home after finishing work and found that my brother, who had gone home earlier, was already sitting in the living room watching the news on TV. Before I could say hello to him, a little girl with white hair ran past my feet, shouted "Pa pa!" in a soft voice, and hugged his thighs.

However, the brother, who usually had a blank expression on his face, acted out of character when the little girl hugged him. He showed a smile so gentle that it made people wonder if he had been switched. He held the little girl in his arms and stroked her hair, his eyes full of doting.

He turned around and saw himself who was stunned by the scene and didn't react, then he said to himself with a smile.

"Kirino, you're back. Hurry to the restaurant. Your sister-in-law has been waiting for you with dinner. It's all your favorite food."

"Oh? Kirino, you're finally back!"

Another lively male voice came from behind him, and when he turned around with a stiff expression, what he saw was someone wearing a standard housewife outfit with a white apron on the outside, holding a pot full of miso soup with his hands wearing heat-insulating gloves, with a gentle smile on his face... Zaimokuza Yoshiki.

"Aunt, Ni is back!"

The voice of his niece was heard from behind him. His neck slowly turned like a rusty machine, and he saw a girl with the face of Zaimokuza Yoshiki.

"what happened?"

The older brother said this to himself who had completely lost the ability to think, and the three of them stood together and spoke in unison like a family.

“““After coming back, how come you don’t recognize your sister-in-law/me/mom anymore?”””

"Alas--!!!"

Shaking her head frantically to get rid of the horrific scene from her mind, Kousaka Kirino was gasping for breath, her face pale and her forehead covered with cold sweat. Her expression of fear still remained, as if she had just woken up from a nightmare.

"Decided!"

After recovering from that imagined scene, Kousaka Kirino's eyes had never been so determined in her life. She clenched her fists and made the first vow of her life.

"Once this light screen ends, I will immediately persuade my dad to move! To a place far away from Chiba Prefecture. At the same time, I must find a way to teach that stupid brother what the correct sexual orientation is!"

"It's fine to have a sister-in-law, but definitely not a male sister-in-law!"

"That...Kirino...look!"

Aragaki Ayase, who was standing behind her, looked at her friend's expression with embarrassment. Just as she was thinking about how to persuade her not to think too much, a new change in the light screen attracted her attention.

Aragaki Ayase pointed at the light curtain in front of Kousaka Kirino and said in surprise.

"Look, the scene on this screen has changed again!"

"Ok?"

Kousaka Kirino turned her head and saw that the scene on her own light screen was slowly turning dark again.

"Could it be that?"

Not only her, many people in the world who had experienced this change in the light curtain before quickly sat up straight and watched attentively.

——A brand new chapter is probably about to begin!

As expected, after the scene on the light screen became completely dim and dark, a line of words that were too pale compared to the background slowly emerged.

At the very beginning, there is still the signature of "Story", and the proverb-like sentence below.

[When the warrior realizes why he set out on this journey in the first place, the end is already revealed at the end of this long journey.]

[Across the era when gods and apostles coexist, the dormant darkness will eventually strike again, and the wheel of fate has been pushed, crushing everything towards the predetermined end, and no one can stop it. ]

[In the beginning, there was a being that was split into two. They had the same origin, but in the end, two completely different souls were born.]

[This fate that originated from the beginning transcends everything. Even if time and space change and the world changes, the people who inherit the past will eventually meet again according to their destiny.]

【Here, the story will usher in the prologue before the ending. 】

【--"dark".】

Although it was dark, this name was the only one in this line of text that was completely different from the paleness of other fonts. It was instead a red color like flowing blood.

The red color was reflected in everyone's eyes, causing them to frown uncomfortably.

"Although this is indeed the style that has always been there, why--uh!"

Arisu Sakayanagi put down the camera in his hand, looked at the bloody title words on the screen, and suddenly covered his left chest with an uncomfortable expression.

She felt as if her heart suddenly quickened its beats. Sakayanagi Arisu, who already suffered from heart disease and had been weak for many years, turned extremely pale in an instant and felt as if she could hardly breathe.

The petite girl staggered to her bedside table, opened the top drawer with great effort, took out a white medicine bottle, reluctantly twisted the cap open, and poured a few pills into her palm.

She swallowed the medicine without hesitation, picked up the cup of water on the table and poured the water into her throat, then collapsed on the ground and gasped.

After a long time, Sakayanagi Arisu finally recovered and stroked his left chest with a smile, but the smile was extremely bitter.

"Oh my... My body is really getting weaker and weaker. I didn't expect that just looking at a text with a glaring color would cause an emergency reaction. Sigh..."

She leaned against the bedroom wall, looking up at the gorgeous classical gold-rimmed chandelier above her head with a lost expression.

Maybe God is fair to some extent.

In addition to being given a background that is unmatched by 99% of the people in this country, as well as a beautiful appearance and a brain that surpasses that of an ordinary person, Arisu Sakayanagi was also given a weak body that is far below the average level of health since birth.

Arisu Sakayanagi has suffered from a serious heart disease since childhood, which has made her completely incompatible with any sports. Not to mention the 100-meter sprint that is just a breather for her peers, even speeding up her walking pace may cause her heart rate to become unbalanced.

As a result, Sakayanagi Arisu, who is now in the prime of his life, has to use a cane like an old man, and cannot vent his youthful energy like other people of his age, lest excessive emotions and actions stimulate his overly weak heart, leading to a terrible situation of sudden death.

But even so, according to the words of Arisu Sakayanagi's father who spent a lot of money to find the world's most advanced cardiologist for her:

"Unfortunately, your daughter's physique is too fragile. Although we have been paying attention to her care, if the situation continues to develop like this, even if she undergoes a heart replacement surgery later, but..."

"—There's still a good chance she won't make it past thirty."

"Ha~"

Thinking of the reflective glasses when the doctor said this, and the distraught expression of his father reflected in the lenses, Sakayanagi Arisu couldn't help but laugh at himself.
