Kamen Rider Date A Live

Kurumi wasn't wrong. Although otaku usually like to act cute, are unreliable, and love to act silly, they should be quite reliable at this time... probably.

Well, Kurumi had no idea what Decade and the others were feeling. If she did, she probably would have flipped the table with a Showa-era joke (laughs).

Okay, let's put aside those complicated thoughts in everyone's minds and get back to the main topic.

"Shadowmoon, tell me everything you know! Including how you got here! Otherwise..."

At this moment, Decade is pointing Ride-Soushu555.comer (Gun Mode) at Shadowmoon with his right hand, while holding a special attack card in his other hand. The meaning is self-evident.

"Hmph! I'll settle this score with Deca next time... no, Kadoya Sekai!"

Shadowmoon gave a very displeased "humph," and then made a declaration. Hearing Shadowmoon's words, Decade could only shake his head in noncommittal and say,

"I'm always looking forward to it, Kage... no, Tsukikage Nobuhiko. But that's enough of the topic, isn't it? Now tell me everything you did to Shido."

Decade's calm voice came over, but beneath that calmness was an aura that was impossible to resist!

"...Tch! I know."

Shadow Moon knew the current situation was extremely unfavorable to her; if she didn't speak up, she would only face a fate worse than death. Fortunately, even if she revealed those things, it wouldn't cause the organization much harm. However, saying too much would also be troublesome, so perhaps…

“Hey, Decade. Let me make this clear first: I will only answer the questions of how I got here and what I did to that Chosen One. I won’t answer any other questions.”

"Is that so... But, were the Shocker combatants who attacked Shiori and the other two not long ago ordered by you?"

decade asked the question to Shadow Moon, and upon hearing it, agitω (Shiori) instinctively clenched her fists and glared at Shadow Moon with anger.

When Yingyue heard the question, she looked at agitω (Shiori) with a thoughtful expression, and understood why Decade had asked the question.

Besides, this question isn't really related to the two questions I just mentioned, so there's no point in bringing it up. Therefore, Yingyue spoke with an indifferent tone.

"Ah, that matter... I did indeed instigate it. What happened? The original plan was to use the heads of those three girls to provoke that Chosen One, to hasten his being devoured. But I waited for a long time, and those combatants never brought the heads over. It turns out they were the opposite-sex counterparts of that Chosen One from the other world that was destroyed by the incomplete 'Inverted Demon' that entered the wrong world. How interesting!"

Shadow Moon laughed heartily, completely ignoring agitω's (Shiori's) murderous glare, and said to agitω (Shiori),

Let me guess!

Shadowmoon laughed maniacally! Amidst this twisted laughter, Shadowmoon continued speaking, completely ignoring the hateful gazes of Decade and the others.

"If I'm not mistaken, this sole survivor has been here since being rescued by one or more of you, Decade. And there must be something wrong with his soul, which is why this otaku is here, right?"

"And do you know why I'm here? It's all because of this woman!"

Yingyue spread her arms wide, as if calling out for something, and said loudly and frantically.

"This woman carries the aura of 'Reversed Demon,' an aura that can never be erased, etched into her soul! As long as this aura remains, our pursuers will continuously arrive in this world! Turning this world into the same place that woman destroyed! Turning it into a world devoid of life!!! Haha ...

"So you should thank me! You're the ones who were wrong!! You should have let those fighters kill this woman! That way, there wouldn't be any pursuers left! Trading one life for the lives of everyone in the world! Isn't that a great deal?! You shouldn't have saved this woman!"

"Ultimately, the reason I came into this world is because of the guidance of this woman's aura! This woman is a 'cursed woman'!! Haha ...

Shadowmoon laughed wildly as she spoke, but when she heard another voice, her wild laughter stopped abruptly, and Decade and the others smiled.

The one who voiced a different opinion was none other than Shiori.

After Shadow Moon said, "As long as this aura doesn't disappear, our pursuers will keep coming to this world," Agitω (Shiori), who was originally looking at Shadow Moon angrily, began to daze under her mask, recalling the tragic fact that had happened not long ago but that she would never forget for the rest of her life.

Friends and family who died before her eyes: her most important family and friends, who sacrificed their own souls to help her recover from the tragic reality. Kotori and Origami are still sealed within the 'villa,' awaiting their release at some unknown time…

Once is enough! Absolutely! It must never happen again!

But what did Yingyue just say? As long as I'm alive, enemies will keep attacking this place? So, was the first battle I fought to save Origami and Tohka, when I successfully transformed, my last battle?

If I die, then no more enemies will come here, right? And because of me, Shido… I guess I'm a woman who shouldn't exist… It's better to die. Even though I'd be sorry to Shido, Mr. Sekai, and the others… but… I…

Shiori thought this way, but what she said was completely the opposite of what she thought.

"don't want……"

Why would I say that?

Shiori wanted to stop talking, but another impulse within her could no longer be suppressed.

"don't want……"

"I……"

"Don't... let that tragedy happen again!!!"

Shiori's determination resounded throughout the sky! And at that moment, the eye at the center of the 'Millennium Puzzle' on Shiori's chest emitted a dazzling light...

Chapter 105: Hope and Determination (Part 2)

"don't want……"

Why would I say that?

Shiori wanted to stop talking, but another impulse within her could no longer be suppressed.

"don't want……"

"I……"

"Don't... let that tragedy happen again!!!"

Shiori's determination resounded throughout the sky! And at that moment, the eye at the center of the 'Millennium Puzzle' on Shiori's chest emitted a dazzling light!

No! This dazzling light didn't shine on the eye at the center of the 'Millennium Puzzle'! The moment it emitted the light, it completely enveloped Shiori! And at the same instant this phenomenon occurred, something else happened inside the 'villa'.

---villa---

Inside the villa, the otaku watched as agitω (Shido), who had just been attacking him but suddenly calmed down after his eyes shone in the center of the Millennium Puzzle, was clad in dark purple armor!

No, to be precise, it's not that things have calmed down, but rather that they're fighting over it—Shido and another Shido!

It turns out that the timing of the arrival of the otaku at the 'villa' was perfect, taking only a few seconds to get there!

Because when the otaku arrived, he saw that Mana, who was covered in wounds, was being held up by agitω (Shido) wearing dark purple armor with his right hand. The strength of his right hand made the otaku have no doubt that he could easily strangle Mana!

However, among the dark purple armor covering his entire body, only his left hand still shone with a dazzling golden light, and this left hand was now tightly gripping his right hand, preventing his right hand from strangling Mana!

The otaku was only stunned for a moment when he saw this strange scene. Then, from the unique aura of the "inverted body" constantly emanating from agitω (Shido) wearing dark purple armor, the otaku immediately understood the situation.

It's likely that when Shadow Moon pierced Shido's body, the sword contained some special technique. And that technique, besides causing damage to Shido's body, might also have benefited the "Inverted Body." Furthermore, the damage to his body might also have been to allow the "Inverted Body" to better control Shido's body.

Thinking of this, the otaku rushed forward without hesitation and punched away 'Reverse Body·agitω'!

However, the armor of "Inverted Body·agitω" was only punched once, and a big hole was punched in it!

The 'Reverse Body·agitω' that was knocked away rolled a few times on the beach before immediately getting up and charging at the otaku with its right fist raised! Moreover, the large hole in its armor had somehow been completely healed.

Meanwhile, the otaku was looking at the unconscious Mana, wondering what to do. Although he could switch modes, he didn't really like healing.

(Mysterious voice: Hey! Now's the time to throw a tantrum!? Your personality is absolutely awful!)

Just as the otaku was pondering a very 'philosophical' question, 'Reversed Body·agitω's' right fist was less than three meters away from him. However, the otaku glanced at the dark purple figure out of the corner of his eye and said softly.

"Absolute Defense Circle (aegis)".

As soon as the otaku finished speaking, a semi-circular blue net-like hemisphere appeared, starting one meter from him. Simultaneously, 'Reverse Body·agitω's' fist struck the Absolute Defense Circle (aegis).

And the reality is so interesting. Just like before, 'Reverse Body Agitω's' fist seemed to hit cotton, failing to cause any fluctuation or shattering of the Absolute Defense Circle (AEGIS). Instead, 'Reverse Body Agitω' was bounced back by its own force and began to 'excitedly' roll on the beach again.

However, it's unclear whether all "reverse bodies" are as resilient as Shido. Even Shido himself, whose body was taken over by "reverse body agitω", probably couldn't have predicted that his body would become so durable.

Because, the 'Reverse Body·agitω' that had just stopped spinning jumped up again, full of energy. However, this time, the 'Reverse Body·agitω' actually hurt itself hard on its left hand. When the otaku saw this, he knew that this guy planned to take complete control of the body before fighting him.

However, rushing in now would only interrupt 'Reverse Body·agitω's' correct self-torture. If it couldn't bring Shido back to his senses... no, now is the time to act.

The otaku looked at the inverted triangle on the chest of 'Reverse Body·agitω', the only thing that wasn't stained with dark purple except for the left hand, and made this choice in his mind.

"Mode Transformation, Sword Emperor, Leonhardt!"

The instant the otaku finished speaking in a low voice, his halo and wings disappeared, and in their place appeared a...

She wore an ivory coat, her eyes changed from black to a noble and cool purple, and her plain black hair turned pale gold and grew a little longer.

At the same time, a magnificent but heavy longsword appeared in his hand.

If a fan of the Trails series were to see this sword, they would surely exclaim its name in surprise.

The Demon Sword Forged by the Principles of the Outer World—The Demon Sword: Rock Eater!

After switching modes, the otaku gently placed Mana on the ground, picked up his sword, and charged forward!

Oh, by the way, if it were the original otaku, he would simply put Mana on the ground without any regard for chivalry. This is because when switching modes, the otaku's appearance and personality are influenced by the appearance and personality of the person switching modes.

The otaku certainly knew about this, and in fact, he said that things were already at their best as they were. Back then...

The moment the otaku rushed forward, 'Inverted Body·agitω', who was still torturing herself, did not notice the otaku rushing forward. However, as soon as the Rock Eater struck 'Inverted Body·agitω's' armor, 'Inverted Body·agitω' almost instinctively took a step back and stopped her self-torture.

As he stopped the self-harming actions, the dark purple color on his left hand, which had begun to change color, disappeared and returned to its dazzling gold.

Seeing this, the otaku revealed a barely perceptible smile, and continued to attack with his sword without any pause!

Thus, the stalemate continued for at least ten minutes. Although the otaku used his superb sword skills in this form to continuously inflict minor damage on 'Reverse Body·agitω', each time he managed to hinder 'Reverse Body·agitω's' movements.

Yes, keep attacking the joints and important meridians. Of course, if it's a real "reverse body" (a body that doesn't have joints and meridians), this technique will be completely ineffective.

Okay, let's not talk about that for now. Anyway, let's go back to the original time. At this moment, the Millennium Puzzle is emitting a dazzling light from the standing 'Reverse Body·agitω'!

Meanwhile, the gold that was originally confined to Shido's left hand, which was his own consciousness, began a strong counterattack!

106th Petrochemical

106th Petrochemical

Meanwhile, the gold that was originally confined to Shido's left hand, which was his own consciousness, began a strong counterattack!

The gold began to expand, starting to destroy and expel the dark purple that was invading its body!

However, the otaku felt that something was wrong.

Although Shido's consciousness has fully recovered thanks to the "Millennium Puzzle" he created, allowing him to engage in a soul battle to reclaim his body, he is unable to do so once the gold has taken over half of his body!

The battle between the two colors seemed to have entered a long pause, resulting in the otaku seeing a very peculiar agitω (Shido) with a dark purple right side and a gold left side.

The otaku, true to his humorous name, loudly complained upon seeing agitω (Shido) like this.

"Holy crap! How did agitω (Shido) turn into w?!"

Okay, if the belt in the middle were replaced with a double-driver, and paired with two Gaia-memories, and ignoring the style of the Agitω (Shido) armor, it would really be a perfect W.

Fortunately, the otaku was at least somewhat sensible and didn't dwell on or analyze Shido's current situation. He simply closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his once noble and aloof purple eyes had transformed into ethereal and transparent colorless eyes.

The moment the otaku opened his eyes, his world changed. At that moment, nothing could hide anything about him, including his measurements...
