I'm really not Kamen Rider

Chapter 499: As we all know, (__) capes are like leeks, they grow back immediately after you cut them

No one can see through the woman Melina.

Just as the Heavenly Dao still didn't know where she came from, this woman suddenly broke into his life like a flash of lightning, and then he became familiar with her little by little with more and more frequent encounters.

But until just now, in his eyes, Melina was just a woman who might have high fighting ability but knew a lot of things.

He hides himself coldly, shouldering the responsibility as if he were a time and space policeman, hunting down those who travel through time.

However, such an existence just said that he was willing to offer his loyalty and regard himself as king.

If it were anyone else, they would be ecstatic to hear Melina say this.

After all, with her help, almost everything in the world can be said to be within reach.

But Tiandao doesn’t think so. Instead, he has a very strange feeling.

If someone who is not qualified to be a king sets out on the path to becoming a king, the outcome will not be good.

Tiandao has always had a clear understanding of his own weight, and he knows what he should do and what he should not do.

Melina's words meant that he was embarking on a path of no return.

"I..." Tiandao wanted to refuse immediately, but was interrupted by Melina before he could say this.

"This is the same thing you are pursuing." She raised her head and looked at the sky: "Aren't you going to fight against fate?"

"Aren't you going to... cut off the fate of Kamen Rider?"

"The one who can dominate the fate of Kamen Rider must be the king who can represent Kamen Rider." Melina said slowly: "The one who rebels against fate must have the power to transcend fate."

Tiandao:…

"Becoming a king can do all this?" Tiandao's face was full of doubt: "I always feel like you are fooling me."

"I am the guardian of the Book of Omniscience. There is nothing in this world that I don't know." Melina continued, "The path of rebelling against fate and the conditions required to sever the destiny of Kamen Rider are naturally included in it."

Tiandao covered his face with his hands and raised his head. His mouth covered by his palms made unclear sobbing sounds: "That's what I said, but when you pointed it out like this, I felt like I was arranged by you to do this. I always feel like I'm at your mercy."

"So I am the guardian of the Book of Omniscience. My duty is to preserve the secrets of this book and keep the unknown." Melina paused: "I have traveled in countless worlds, and those who hate me and treat me coldly are all like this."

"Because everything I say becomes true, and everything I express is the path that must be taken, so my words will make people feel that everything is arranged by me."

"I can understand this disgust."

Because this is a manifestation of helplessness towards fate. Knowing everything, one still has to embark on this known path without any other options. Isn't this a compromise?
This is the despair of being powerless against fate, but it is also the proof that fate arrogantly looks down on everything in the world.

So how could I have a good face towards myself who is the conveyer of such words of fate?

"It's okay." Tiandao shook his head: "Fortunately you are a woman. If a man said this to me, I would definitely not be able to accept it."

Melina: ?

"But I still have a chance."

Tian Dao became excited: "It doesn't have to be me, right? You also said that I don't have the qualifications to become a king, so in this infinite world, there must be someone who completely meets your requirements, and all you need to do is find him!"

Melina didn't say anything, just looked at Tiandao.

Those calm and deep eyes never blinked, like a pure black gem, which made Tiandao dare not look at her, and he could only look around vaguely.

But Tiandao’s heart was suddenly lifted up and he became more and more panicked.

Then, Melina's always cold expression suddenly curled up the corners of her mouth, revealing a smile like an iceberg melting.

Just like when Rei Ayanami smiled, it brought infinite shock to people, but also engraved this scene in their minds.

Tiandao was the same, staring at the smile that looked like a melting iceberg. He was stunned and became more and more panicked.

Stop laughing!

Although I don't deny that you look good when you smile, but how can I be happy when you smile at this time and moment!

"You're right," Melina said, "so I'll go look for it again."

Tian Dao heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this. …

The process of Kazushi Kado and Sayo returning to the Kamiyama family does not require the presence of outsiders, including even the head of the family, Tendou.

Although the people waiting outside the ancestral hall were curious about what was happening inside, they also knew that they didn't need to go in at this moment, so they waited patiently.

As the current head of the Shenshan family, Tiandao was not at all dissatisfied with being excluded. On the contrary, he was very happy.

This is probably the difference between young people of the new era and the older generation.

Tiandao just feels troubled.

Tai Er, on the other hand, was extremely serious.

Therefore, when the door of the ancestral hall was slowly opened, it completely represented that the generation of the Shenshan family was no longer just Tiandao, but had two relatives to accompany them.

...

"So, from now on, should we call the Scholar Shenshan?" Even though it was late at night, no one planned to go to sleep. Instead, they gathered together and had a heated discussion.

Kaito Daiki took the lead in opening the topic and looked at Kadoya Kado with a teasing look.

"What a crappy name." Kadoya curled his lips in disgust: "It sounds like a fool."

"Instead of calling me Kamiyama Shi, I'd rather call me Kamiyama Mikage." Kadoya Shi crossed his arms, leaned back against the chair and said arrogantly: "From now on, you can call me..."

"Divine Fang."

Guang Xiahai rolled his eyes and said nothing.

"What about Xiaoye?" Tiandao didn't care what Kadoya Kazuya was called. Even if he was called Kamiyama Ichituo, it had nothing to do with him. But he still cared about Xiaoye.

"It's all up to me. You can call me Kadoya Saya or Kamiyama Saya." Saya nodded, snuggled up to Taiji, feeling the love from her elders.

In fact, it was because if he only acknowledged one name, both Kazuto Kazuya and Tendou would definitely be dissatisfied, and then it would turn into a battle between the brothers.

Xiaoye clearly realized this, so she wanted both.

This is the same as her current attitude. No matter whether it is the Heavenly Dao or the scholars, she doesn't want to let any of them go.

"By the way, I have a gift for you." Kamiyama Taiji said happily, and then in full view of everyone, he took out a pile of... cloaks from under the table?
As Tiandao stared in amazement, Taier unfolded the cloak and put it on Xiaoye, saying cheerfully: "This is a cloak passed down from our Shenshan family. It has magical powers and warmth-keeping effects."

"I know you still want to go traveling, but without a cloak, it won't be enough."

"Thank you, Grandpa!" Xiaoye certainly wouldn't refuse. She tied her cloak, stood up, turned around, and said happily, "It fits me well, Grandpa."

"As long as you are satisfied." Tai Er was very satisfied. The Shenshan family, which he had witnessed with his own eyes as its population declined, had not been so lively for a long time.

"Come on, come on, everyone has one." As he said that, Tai Er distributed the cloak in his hand one by one, and everyone present received one as a gift.

Except for the way of heaven.

"No!" Tiandao slapped the table and said angrily: "Didn't you say that this is the symbol of the head of the Shenshan family?!"

As he spoke, Tiandao took out his cloak, but suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Wait... this cape..."

Melina didn't say anything, but stretched out her hand and held up the neatly folded golden-red cloak.

"You gave this away." Tai Er understood: "So it seems that this girl is the future mistress of the Shenshan family?"

Heavenly Dao:?
This extremely explosive speech shocked everyone who received the gifts. They all looked at Tai Er in disbelief with their mouths wide open.

Then why are you still sending them everywhere?
"I feel a magical power from this cloak that other cloaks don't have." Melina completely ignored Tai Er's words and looked calm as usual.

"But at the same time, I can't find any record of this cloak."

"This is not something that should exist in the world of Kamen Rider." Melina's eyes narrowed slightly, focusing on Taiji Kamiyama.

"So, who are you?"
