Kamen Rider: High Beam Rider - Starting with Saber

Rintaro answered the phone, seemingly having received some kind of order.

"Yes, I understand."

Rintaro hung up the phone and looked at Lan Su. "Gentlemen, please come with me!"

"Lead the way."

Lan Su had already heard the contents of the phone call; it was from the head of the North Region base, who wanted to meet with them.

Rintaro used Touma's bookshelf to open the door to the books, and a portal with rotating books appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Wow! Is this a magic door?! That's amazing!"

Seeing that Mei wanted to follow him in, Rintaro quickly stopped her, saying, "Please wait here for a moment, Miss Mei."

"Please, gentlemen!"

After stopping Mei from entering, Rintaro extended an invitation to Lan Su and Ling Hua.

The two nodded slightly and entered the door of the book.

As Rintaro and Touma entered, the Book Gate closed.

"What the hell? Rintaro is so stingy." Mei stomped her foot in frustration as she looked at the vanished Book Gate.

……

Four people are gathered in a house decorated in a medieval style.

It was the villainous trio of Migido and Wang Jian.

"You failed, Raziel." Stryus looked at Raziel, who was standing in front of a bookshelf, with schadenfreude.

"It's alright, it's all the same energy anyway, we can just continue in a different place." Raziel wasn't annoyed.

"Hehehe, as expected of Raziel, he doesn't care even if the Megiddo he created is destroyed." The muscular Zous also chimed in from the side.

"However, what surprised me was the reappearance of the Flame Sword and the somewhat peculiar guy."

As Stryus watched the projection replay, when he mentioned the Flame Sword, he glanced at the silent King Sword.

Seeing that Wang Jian ignored him, Stryus turned his attention back to the projection.

"This power doesn't seem to come from a fantasy book," Stryus thought, staring at Lan Su's figure in the projection, a hint of curiosity rising in his heart.

……

Back in Lansu, the four of them went through the Gate of Books to the North District Base.

The door opened, and the four entered the council hall of the North District base.

"Wow! That's amazing! Absolutely incredible!"

Looking at the dazzling array of books and novel equipment, Fei Yuzhen couldn't help but step forward and touch them.

Rintaro was afraid that Hiyori would really damage the equipment, so he quickly stepped forward to stop her.

Lan Su also curiously observed the style of the North District base, which seemed much simpler than the South District base.

"Ding-dong."

A bell rang, and a door to the bookshelf above the council hall opened.

A woman with a gentle demeanor, dressed in a white gauze dress, walked out from inside.

"I am Sophia, the guardian of the book, faithful to the sword of truth!"

This is located in the Arctic. Welcome to our two comrades from the Southern Base, and also to Touma Kamiyama! Welcome!

Sophia spoke softly, nodding to Lan Su and Linghua.

"The Arctic!!?" Fei Yuzhen was somewhat incredulous.

"Yes, we have been here since ancient times, together with the swordsmen chosen by the Holy Sword, guarding the Book of Creation, which possesses great power, and maintaining the balance of the world."

"Tell him it's alright, Miss Sophia?" Rintaro hesitated when he saw Sophia mention the Book of Creation directly.

Sofia nodded slightly, indicating that it was alright.

"A powerful book! And a holy sword!"

Fei Yuzhen felt it was incredibly amazing and was very excited.

"..."

Next, Sophia told Touma about the origins of the Holy Sword, Kamen Rider, and so on, as well as the reason for the Sword of Truth's battle.

She left the choice of which battle to fight to Touma himself.

"No! The Holy Sword must..."

Linghua wanted to say something more, but Lan Su stopped her.

"Linghua, forget it."

He understood Linghua's thoughts, but he felt that the fact that the guy named Feiyu Zhen could wield the Holy Sword meant that he was qualified.

He had no intention of stealing from others, nor did he necessarily intend to possess the Holy Sword.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Sophia. We won't bother you any longer."

Lansu and Sofia said goodbye; today was their day off, and they couldn't be busy with work.

"Oh dear, are you two guests leaving already? I haven't had a proper chance to entertain you!"

Sophia tried to persuade him to stay, but Lan Su refused.

There will be an opportunity.

As he spoke, he pulled Linghua out. He preferred shopping with Linghua to attending group gatherings.

"Okay, okay, are you still angry?"

"Hehehe, Linghua-nee, don't be angry~ We'll definitely get the Holy Sword and stuff in the future!"

Lan Su saw that Linghua had been ignoring him since leaving the North District base, so he quickly apologized.

"Do you know how rare the Holy Sword is? And even if you have the Holy Sword, it's useless without its approval!"

Linghua couldn't help but laugh in exasperation when she saw Lan Su describing the Holy Sword as something as common as cabbage.

"Hey, Linghua, you're smiling! You're not angry anymore!" Lan Su said solicitously, massaging Linghua's shoulders with a smile on his face.

"You don't know what's good for you." Linghua poked Lan Su's forehead in annoyance, and stopped keeping a cold face.

"hey-hey."

Lan Su chuckled and scratched his head. He felt it didn't matter whether the Holy Sword was there or not, as long as everyone was together.

However, things didn't go as planned...

As Lan Su and Ling Hua walked down the street, a golden curtain suddenly appeared, and a whale-like monster holding a scepter walked out from it!

"How is this possible! He's here!"

Looking at the whale-like monster wielding a long staff a few meters away, Lan Su's brows furrowed with tension! Some blurry images appeared in his mind.

He pulled Linghua back instinctively, his subconscious mind frantically reminding him that the monster in front of him was dangerous!

"What is this thing? Is it some kind of new type of Megiddo?"

Linghua sensed the terrifying power emanating from the other party and immediately drew her holy sword to block Lan Su.

"Return the power of the Supreme Being to you, you thief!"

Looking at Lan Su behind Linghua, the whale-like monster with a female appearance and a male voice walked slowly towards Lan Su, holding a cane.

"The God Above the Waters!"

Lan Su subconsciously called out the other person's name, and some scattered memories appeared in his mind, causing cold sweat to involuntarily trickle down his forehead.

"Hand it over!"

The Water God reached out and unleashed several psychic waves towards Lan Su.

"Danger!" Lan Su pulled Linghua to the side to avoid it.

He tried to fight back with his telekinesis, but was easily broken free by the god above the water.

"This guy's strong! I'll hold him off, you find a chance to escape and call for backup!"

Reika takes out her smoke sword and "Encyclopedia of Insects," transforming into Kamen Rider Blade.

Just as Pei Jian was about to step forward to restrain him, he was stopped by Lan Su's trembling hand!

"Don't go, let's retreat!"

Facing the water god opposite him, Delan Su was extremely terrified.

"What's wrong with you? Okay, whatever you say!"

This was the first time Pei Jian had ever seen Lan Su so out of control, and out of trust in Lan Su, he immediately agreed.

"Smoke beetles!"

Pei Jian and Lan Su were quickly enveloped in thick gray-green smoke and disappeared from the sight of the Water God.

"A mere trick!" The God of Water tapped his scepter lightly, and a ripple of water spread rapidly outward from the ground centered on him.

"Bang!"

The sword's smoke effect was broken, and the two were knocked to the ground by the Water God's attack.

"How is that possible!"

Pei Jian was astonished; this was the first time her move had been countered since she acquired the smoke sword!

"There's no other way. I'll hold him off. Go and call the people from the North District for help!"

As the crisis drew ever closer, Pei Jian made a decision immediately.

Her figure transformed into smoke, circled around to the back of the water god, and thrust out with a sword.

Just as the smoke sword was about to pierce the water god, a water shield appeared on its body, blocking the smoke sword's attack.

He was then brought up by the water and thrown away!

"Linghua!" Seeing Linghua injured, Lan Su suppressed his fear and gave up his plan to find someone to help.

His eyes were bloodshot as he took out the black Tang sword from his dimensional space and slashed at the God of Water!

If she leaves now, Linghua's chances of survival are slim.

North District Base.

When Sophia sensed the terrifying aura of the god above the water, she saw Lan Su in a precarious situation in the projection.

She immediately contacted Touma and Rintaro and went to their rescue.

However, Sophia clearly underestimated the power of the Water God. By the time Touma and Rintaro arrived at the scene...

They saw that Lan Su was already covered in wounds, and the God of Water carried him into the golden curtain as if he were a dead man.

This made Lan Su realize for the first time that in the face of absolute strength, any fancy skills are useless.

Linghua's transformation was also canceled due to exhaustion from continuously using her smoke ability.

However, thanks to Lan Su's protection, she did not suffer any serious harm.

"Mr. Lan Su!"

"Henshin!"

The two people's calls brought Lan Su back to his senses, and he saw that Fei Yuzhen and Rintaro had transformed and were chasing after him.

However, they were too weak, and were easily defeated by a single psychic wave from the God of Water, which caused them to lose their transformation.

They could only watch helplessly as Lan Su's figure disappeared into the golden curtain.

On the ground, only a broken black Tang sword remained.

In his final moments, Lan Su tried to speak, but he was too weak to utter a sound.

She understood what Lan Suwei meant when he said, "Hurry up and go."

"Lan Su! You idiot!" Linghua's eyes were red, and tears could no longer be held back.

However, she quickly rallied her spirits and decided to go back and ask her elder brother and the Holy Lord for help.

"Yes, with the help of my elder brother and the Holy Lord, we will definitely be able to rescue Lan Su!"

Inside the North District base, Sophia was filled with guilt and worry. If she had realized everything sooner, would things have been different?

However, there are no ifs…
