Thanks for the invitation. I'm in Type-Moon, inheriting the legacy of Zi-O.

White, which encompasses all things, has transformed into gold that reaches its peak!

The immense pressure had caused Nian Zhuo's hidden blood vessels to burst, causing bright red blood to flow from his eyes, nose, and even ears.

But we can't let this end! Now is the best time to defeat them!

"This is the possibility of humanity!" With a heavy stomp on the ground, Nian Zhuo created a depression in the land with a radius of three meters. He gripped the sword blade, which had turned into golden light, and charged towards the tornado.

"Ahhhhhh!" Looking at the tornado radiating an aura of destruction in front of him, Nian Zhuo raised the Heisei Sword, which had transformed into a golden beam of light, high in his hand.

Then, from within the black tornado, a golden line cleaved it in two.

No, that's not a line, that's Nian Zhuo's sword light!

By combining his own ultimate attack with the combined power of the two Heisei Riders into one, and further amplified by the ten cards of Tsukasa Kadoya, Nencho finally had enough sword energy to slice through this insignificant hurricane!

"What—!" Alien W retreated in disbelief, only to see the black tornado split in two by the golden sword light, and a knight shining with golden light rushed out from the middle of the tornado.

"Pfft—Pfft—" On his arms, shoulders, and back, some blood vessels had burst, and bright red blood splattered onto his armor.

We can't stop, we absolutely can't stop!

This belief has always supported Nianzhuo, enabling him to sprint, sprint again and again!

Until! Sever the heads of those monsters!

The next moment, like a shooting star, Nian Zhuo's figure appeared in front of the strange people.

"This is it—!" Then, with his hands gripping the sword hilt at shoulder level, Nian Zhuo swung the sword, which had transformed into a golden beam of light, heavily down on the ten advanced memory bodies in front of him!

"The power of the Heisei Riders!" Golden light instantly enveloped all the monsters, then turned into smoke and dust and completely dissipated under the extreme heat and explosion.

Ten advanced memory entities were completely reduced to ashes by Nian Zhuo's attack.

But it's not over yet! Those three alien creatures are still alive!

"Pfft—Pfft—" This time, not only his body, but even his eyes started to bleed.

His lungs felt like a scorching furnace, and everything in front of him gradually turned crimson in his turbid golden eyes.

He couldn't... he couldn't fall down... He forced his body to move again.

In an instant, they arrived in front of the three alien Ws.

"...!!" At this moment, the alien W was completely consumed by fear. Its eyes widened as it stared at the Nian Zhuo emanating a scorching aura in front of it. Then it roared at the other two alien Ws, "Quick! Run! As long as one of them survives, we can be reborn again!"

"None of you will survive." Nian Zhuo mechanically raised the Heisei Sword in his hand and stomped the ground forcefully.

Thump—The instantaneous feeling of weightlessness caused all three monsters to float into the air.

However, at that very moment, the golden light on the Nianzhuo sword suddenly dissipated.

"Ha..." Even though his body was suspended in mid-air and unable to move, Another W laughed triumphantly, "You no longer have the ability to kill the three of us in one blow!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" However, Nian Zhuo's actions did not stop. He pressed the button on the driver at his waist and then flipped it over.

"Finish Time—!" "Fang! Maximum Drive!"

Thanks to the enhancements to the Decade watch face, Nian Zhuo can now finally use the Fang Ace's abilities.

A turbulent current of air enveloped the blade, and a phantom blade resembling a dinosaur's tooth overlapped with the Heisei Sword in Nian Zhuo's hand.

"Fang Straizer—!"

Then, Nian Zhuo's body suddenly spun around, and the blade in his hand simultaneously sliced ​​through the bodies of three alien Ws.

A pale blue "ki" character appeared in front of the three alien Ws.

"Damn it, damn it—!" Sensing impending death, the unwilling alien W stretched out its hand. "How could it be, how could it be because of a bunch of weak humans!!!"

"Damn humans! Aaaaaaah!"

Then, it transformed into a blue ball of light and exploded instantly.

Three round objects landed simultaneously at Nianzhuo's feet.

Destroy the outlier W.

Welcome back, Nianzhuo

After the monster exploded violently, the thick smoke and dust obscured Nian Zhuo's figure.

Drake and the others, after watching the monster being destroyed by Nian Zhuo, couldn't help but collapse to the ground.

"Ouch...it hurts..." Sure enough, as soon as she relaxed, Drake immediately clutched her abdomen, her eyebrows furrowing. The golden cup that had fallen to the ground was immediately put into her bosom, and she began to repair Drake's injured body.

Even so, Drake could feel changes in his body.

—The composition has changed in some places.

There was no sensation of blood flowing there, only strands of blue silk threads connected to the golden cup within the body.

Although she could sense that the quality of that place was stronger than that of other parts of Drake's body, the sense of emptiness was still somewhat difficult for her to accept.

"So that's what they call Servant transformation..." Drake rubbed his stomach, looking uncomfortably uncomfortable, and half-reclined on the still soft grass, looking up at the hazy sunlight. "Indeed, this kind of weather is perfect for sailing..."

Drake glanced at Ritsuka and the others who had collapsed to the ground behind him, and then at Nencho standing on the dark soil not far away, and shook his head helplessly.

"This is really...what bad luck." However, feeling the soft touch of the sunlight on his skin, he smiled with satisfaction. "But...it feels pretty good."

But Nianzhuo over there wasn't so lucky.

After the battle, my body recovered from the adrenaline rush, and then an indescribable pain instantly swept over me.

"No..." Nian Zhuo pressed his fists, which had already clenched weakly, against his back. He absolutely could not allow himself to fall down. "I can't, I can't fall down... Everyone, everyone is still watching..." His legs trembled weakly, but he still managed to keep his body steady with his willpower.

Although the reason sounds cliché, Nianzhuo just felt that he couldn't give up.

"I must... tell everyone..." So, since we don't have enough power, we'll make up for it with our willpower.

One step... Nian Zhuo slowly turned around and finally took a step towards them.

"Ha...ha..." Just one step brought excruciating pain, causing Nian Zhuo's forehead to be covered in sweat. The ruptured blood vessels resulted in his hands being covered in bright red blood.

"As long as... as long as I can get to that place..." Step by step, Nianzhuo took short strides, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

However, the sweat that dripped down was blood red, which must have been the result of blood and sweat mixing on the back of his hand.

Every joint in the body is screaming in pain, every cell is crying out in agony... This is the result of forcibly enduring a force that one is not capable of bearing.

"Damn it..." Even his eyelids were drooping, and Nian Zhuo felt his knees gradually weakening. "In the end, did I still make them worry...?"

Then, just as Nianzhuo was about to give up, an arm suddenly pierced through and supported Nianzhuo's body.

“…You’re something else, Nianzhuo.” As he turned his head in confusion, he met Decade’s green eye armor staring intently at him, which made Nianzhuo give another wry smile.

"Please, Shi." Nian Zhuo whispered, pleading for his companion's strength. He could no longer hold back his trembling body and collapsed. "I'm so tired...really, so tired..."

“…You owed me a favor, but I’ve repaid it now.” With these somewhat ambiguous words, Decade helped Nianzhuo up and led him toward Ritsuka and the others who were lying on the ground.

"Nencho... Good afternoon~" Although her face was covered in dust and her body was still a little weak due to the flow of a lot of magic power, Ritsuka still sat up from the ground and waved to him with an energetic smile.

“Mr. Nianzhuo…” Mashu was in better condition than Ritsuka. She stood up and helped Nianzhuo from Decade’s arms, then nodded to Decade. “Um, thank you very much for your help… May I ask who you are—?”

Looking at Tsukasa Kadoya's armor with suspicion, Mash subconsciously assumed that Nian Zhuo beside her and the person in front of her came from the same place. "Excuse me... are you and Mr. Nian Zhuo both from the 'Guardians' organization?" Recalling Nian Zhuo's previous experiences, Mash naturally linked the unfamiliar warrior in front of her with the 'Guardians'.

"Guardians...?" For some reason, the man in front of him seemed to have a slight smile on his face, then waved his hand. "No, I don't come from that place. Rather, I might be an organization myself."

"And you are—" "Tsukasa Kadoya." Just as I was about to ask further, the man in front of me threw out another answer.

"Just call me Tsukasa Kadoya." Then, Tsukasa Kadoya looked at Mash in front of him, took a card from the card box and put it into the driver. "Finally, I wish you success, people from another world."

"What are you doing again—" However, in front of Mashu, Decade's figure suddenly blurred and finally disappeared in front of her.

With her hand hanging limply, Mashu knelt on the ground and gently placed the Nencho on her shoulder onto her knees.

"You're finally back, Mr. Nianzhuo..." Finally, the purple-haired girl felt the sharp touch of Nianzhuo's hair and realized that the person in front of her was the man she knew. Unable to suppress her emotions, she could only let her purple bangs cover her eyes. "I really, everyone really... has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Hahaha... After all, we really went a bit too far that time... Although this time is about the same." Feeling the pain constantly emanating from his entire body, Nian Zhuo's forehead was covered in sweat as he forced a smile.

The warm raindrops hit his face, making him suddenly feel dazed.

"I really...I really..." Mashu's voice trembled, along with Nianzhuo's heart. She covered her face to prevent Nianzhuo from seeing her current appearance, but the water droplets flowing from between her fingers still showed that the girl was out of control. "I'm so scared...Mr. Nianzhuo, I'm really scared."

"..." Nian Zhuo's expression also changed. He quietly clenched his fists and lay on the girl's lap, trying to wipe away the blood flowing from his forehead.

However, a hand was faster than him; a pink handkerchief with a girlish feel was gently placed on his forehead, wiping away the flowing blood.

The face of the little goddess, Euryale, came into view, and at the same time, the goddess's slender hand tightly gripped Nianzhuo's wrist.

"Don't move," the goddess commanded softly, carefully wiping the dust and blood from Nian Zhuo's head. "This is a gift from the goddess; accept it properly."

"Um, actually, you didn't have to do that, hahaha..." Nian Zhuo moved his other, still-mobile hand, trying to brush away the goddess's hand. "Let me do it, after all, you're probably exhausted too—"

"I told you not to move!" Suddenly, the goddess's voice rose sharply, and the force with which she grabbed Nian Zhuo's wrist increased. "I told you not to move..." She lowered her head and saw Nian Zhuo's dazed expression.

“…Oh, oh, okay.” Snapping out of his daze, Nian Zhuo stared into Yuri Ellie’s determined eyes, and finally surrendered. “Then, I’m counting on you for my worthless face. Don’t make it any more embarrassing.” He closed his eyes helplessly, feeling the touch of the handkerchief the goddess was gently wiping his face.

“…” Little by little, Yuri carefully wiped away the bloodstains and dust from Nianzhuo’s face, not caring at all even if it dirtied her sleeves.

Finally, when Nianzhuo's face returned to its usual appearance, even she herself breathed a small sigh of relief, and then stood up.

"Thank you..." A small voice came from behind. Nianzhuo closed his eyes and peacefully felt everything around him.

The gentle sunlight, the soft soil beneath me, and the sensation of a girl's legs coming from below (though the armor was a bit of a hindrance).

"What a... warm breeze..." Nianzhuo closed his eyes and quietly felt all of this, immersing himself in it.

"Here, Fujimaru Ritsuka, thank you for your handkerchief." Euryale handed the now-stained, bright red handkerchief to the girl who was helping her sit up, her face slightly flushed. "...I'm sorry."

"It's alright, it's alright. At least it did what it could." Ritsuka waved her hand to indicate that it didn't need to worry about it, and then gave everyone a wink.

Drake and the others immediately nodded in understanding, and even Mash made a gesture.

“Mr. Nianzhuo…” Ritsuka quietly approached Nianzhuo and tapped his cheek.

"Hmm...?" Nian Zhuo opened his eyes with difficulty and saw Ritsuka's inexplicable smile.

"Welcome back!" Then, without anyone noticing, everyone suddenly gathered around Nianzhuo and shouted this phrase at the same time.

“…” Staring blankly at the Servants around him, and Mash whispering in his ear above his head, Nian Zhuo remained silent, yet inexplicably felt his eyes welling up with tears.

I'm finally... finally back—only now does Nianzhuo finally feel a sense of reality.

"I'm back," he said softly, as they smiled.

And from behind a tree not far away, Decade slowly revealed his appearance.
