Kamen Rider: High Beam Rider - Starting with Saber

Chapter 103 His Gaze (End of Saber Arc)

North District Base.

With the return of Fei Yu and the end of Megiddo's meddling, the world returned to peace.

Today, apart from Lian and Lingya, everyone else was lounging lazily in the base.

The conference hall had been transformed into a seaside resort scene, with everyone dressed in beachwear, wearing sunglasses, drinking beverages, and basking in the virtual sunlight created by Lan Su.

The gentle music playing at Daqin Temple and the warm sunshine made everyone feel very relaxed.

Lan Su was doing the same thing; he was applying sunscreen to Ling Hua's arm, while Yaz sat beside them feeding them ice cream.

Everyone moved to positions behind Rintaro and Mei with perfect understanding, except for the goofy Yuri.

He was struggling with the shaved ice in his hand, feeling dizzy from eating too much at once.

"Mei, I've heard this has different names like 'shaved ice' and 'crushed ice,' and this is my first time trying it."

Rintaro scooped up a spoonful and handed it to Mei, wanting her to try it.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and stood up to look at Rintaro and Mei.

But Mei just took a sip of orange juice and ignored Rintaro's flattery.

Seeing that nothing had happened, everyone sighed in disappointment and lay back down in their chairs.

"Tsk, just go for it, Rintaro! Have you forgotten how I taught you last night?!" Lan Su was even more anxious than Rintaro, constantly giving him instructions via telepathy.

Recently, Rintaro suddenly approached him, wanting him to impart his secrets to love. This immediately energized Lan Su, the "relationship guru," who then poured out all his expertise to Rintaro.

However, Rintaro always backed down at crucial moments, which frustrated Lan Su, who couldn't help but curse Rintaro as the worst class of students he had ever taught.

Little did they know that Lan Su himself had little experience in dating, and everything came about naturally because of his sincerity and the mutual attraction between them.

In fact, Lan Su had no idea how to pursue girls.

"So, is the battle over? What are everyone's plans now?" Seeing that there was no more drama to watch, Fei Yuzhen started a conversation.

Sofia said, "There are still some fantasy books whose whereabouts are unknown, so the organization will continue to operate."

"Let's gradually hand everything over to the younger generation and nurture the next generation," Ryota Onoue said, adding a word of encouragement to Kento.

"Anyway, there are still things I want to do next."

"Yes, it's time for me to return to my main job as a swordsmith."

Daqin Temple smiled and said that being a swordsman was just a side job for him; he would rather be a swordsmith.

"Once Sword Slash returns from his training trip, we'll all need to reconsider the future of the Sword of Truth."

Currently, the Sword of Truth lacks a unified leader and is maintained solely by Lingya and Sophia.

"Traveling for spiritual training, that's really something he'd do," Touma couldn't help but remark.

Fei Yuzhen suddenly asked, "By the way, what are Lan Susang's plans next?"

"Me?"

Lan Su stopped groping, remained silent for a moment, and then decided to tell everyone about it: "I'm going to find that guy and settle our score. I've been feeling his watchful eye on me lately."

Linghua and Yaz already knew, so they didn't show much surprise, but the worry in their eyes just wouldn't go away.

The others weren't so calm. Ryo Onoue exclaimed in surprise, "What? You're planning to fight a god!?"

"Don't be nervous, we'll win." Lan Su smiled and gave a thumbs up, reassuring everyone.

"I see. Please let us know if you need any help." Fei Yuzhen looked at Lan Su with sincere eyes.

"Definitely." Lan Su nodded with a smile.

Just then, Rintaro's voice suddenly rose: "Mei! I have something to tell you."

Rintaro swallowed nervously, and the surrounding space suddenly fell silent as everyone held their breath and looked at Rintaro and Mei.

"I think----"

"Sorry to bother you."

Rintaro's hard-won courage was shattered by Ryoga's sudden entrance.

"oops!"

Disappointed, everyone lay back down in their chairs, with the wise man slapping his thigh repeatedly in frustration.

The courage that Rintaro had finally mustered vanished without a trace in an instant.

"What's wrong?" Seeing everyone's expressions, Lingya's social anxiety flared up again, and she looked at Lansu and Linghua with some embarrassment.

"Ahem, Brother Lingya, come and sit down, we'll talk later."

Lan Su quickly waved his hand, indicating that Ling Ya had something to say later, and gave his seat to Ling Ya.

"Rintaro, just like before, let's go! For sweet love, for staying with Mei forever, let's charge into the river of love once more!"

"I've been with Linghua for over a year, don't you believe me?"

Lan Su kept sending telepathic messages to Rintaro, encouraging him to finish what he had just said.

Upon hearing Lan Su's encouragement and urging, Rintaro took a deep breath and looked at Mei again with a serious expression.

This time, without shouting, Rintaro put down the shaved ice in his hand, reached out and put his hand on Mei's shoulder, and said seriously, "Mei, I have something important to tell you!"

"What is it, Rintaro? You've been acting really strange lately." Mei looked at Rintaro with a puzzled expression, but she already had a guess in her mind and felt a little nervous.

The air froze again, and everyone looked at Rintaro and Mei once more.

Lan Su thought to himself, "Third time's the charm; this time I'm sure I'll succeed!"

"Please become my family!" Rintaro finally said what he had been holding back for a long time.

"Huh? Aren't we already family?" Mei asked, puzzled.

The crowd swayed slightly, worried for the two of them.

Lan Su felt the same way, and he quickly reminded him telepathically, "Oh no, no, you should say 'Please become my girlfriend and date me!'"

This time, Rintaro finally showed some wit. He cupped Mei's cheeks and spoke again, "It's not like that. I want to be with Mei, and marry her!"

Thinking he had it all figured out, Lan Su nodded in approval, picked up Linghua's drink, and took a sip.

"puff!"

Upon hearing Rintaro's words, he couldn't hold back and spat out his drink, spraying it all over Ryougi's face.

Mei's cheeks flushed instantly, and she stared blankly into Rintaro's sincere eyes, unsure of what to do.

"Idiot, who asks a girl to marry them right off the bat? I don't agree!"

Mei broke free from Rintaro's hand and angrily tapped him on the head.

Rintaro felt like he was about to shatter, and collapsed helplessly to the ground, surrounded by a large amount of negative energy.

"Sigh." Everyone sighed softly, feeling sorry for Rintaro.

Just then, Mei changed the subject: "But, well, I'll reluctantly accept dating you for now."

"As for marriage, let's talk about that later!"

Mei raised her head with a touch of arrogance, but inside she was actually quite shy.

"Really! I will try my best!" Rintaro's mood was as bright as after the rain, and he happily held Mei's hands.

"That's wonderful!" Everyone was happy for the two of them and applauded.

Although Yuri didn't know what was going on, he joined the others in clapping.

"Hmm, not bad. Everything is as I expected."

Lan Su crossed his arms and looked at Rintaro, the student, with a proud expression.

But he soon noticed an angry gaze fixed on him; it was Ling Ya, who had been sprayed with a drink by Lan Su.

"Don't make me angry!"

Ryoga Kamishiro wiped the water off his face and hooked his arm around Lan Su's shoulder.

"Hehe, Brother Lingya, let me explain!"

"Linghua, save me!"

"Don't run away!"

In the chase between Lan Su and Ling Ya, Rintaro's confession plan came to a successful conclusion.

Three days later, Lian returned from her travels and spiritual practice.

Everyone gathered in the Hall of Truth and, after discussions...

Everyone unanimously decided to abolish the organization's monarchy and replace it with a council system.

Rintaro, Sofia, Yuri, and Ryoga serve as the core members of the council, who together decide on the organization's next management policy.

With the strategy decided, everyone returned to their own lives.

Fei Yu Zhen voluntarily returned the Flame Sword Liehuo, and together with Xianren and Luna, they opened a bookstore and told interesting stories to children.

To be precise, Touma is no longer human, but a god in a fantasy world.

However, he preferred being a novelist with his companions to possessing divine power.

Ren continues his training, Daqin Temple resumes its identity as a swordsmith, and Onoue Ryo begins preparing for the teacher qualification exam.

-

As for Lan Su.

He was packing his luggage at home when suddenly the black and white runes on his forehead lit up. He looked up and met the gaze of an invisible being that spanned countless universes!

Although He has no physical form now, Lan Su can feel that He is indeed watching him!
