Kamen Rider Date A Live

The eyes maintained their usual tone, devoid of any emotion, but judging from the words they spoke, they clearly disapproved of the figure's actions.

"No! It's still possible! As long as you reach your level in any aspect, it's possible!"

The figure's words were surprisingly firm; it did not change its plans because of what the eyes said.

"Jokes aren't funny. You know how many times it would take to find someone like that? It's practically impossible unless I and he/she act together..."

Eyes stopped talking at the end, as if he had suddenly thought of something. After a while, his emotionless voice came again.

"So it was you who caused that extra person back then? It seems your obsession with that person is still as strong as ever."

The eyes spoke incomprehensible words, but the figure clearly knew what the other was referring to, because, as the other said, it was he who had interfered in that matter.

Thinking of this, the figure parted his lips slightly and spoke.

"No……

Fate arc closing remarks

Before praising yourself, take a moment to care about yourself. Isn't the lower half of your body almost gone?

The otaku, shrugging his shoulders, walked over unhurriedly. He looked at the white Shido who was holding Shido, whose transformation was beginning to dissipate, and uttered the words "transfer." Then, he took Shido from the white Shido's hands, picked him up, and glanced at him. At the same time, his pupils turned gray as he observed Shido, whose face was so peaceful that it looked as if he was about to be laid to rest.

"...Wow, this is really bad. Part of my soul has shattered. I guess I'll be a vegetable for the rest of my life... Hey Bai Shidao, can't you give me some kind of response? This is so boring."

"Well... even though it's just a false memory, through this memory I have a better understanding of your character, Mr. Otaku, so I roughly guessed that you didn't finish what you were saying, right?"

The otaku, who had initially looked serious and regretful, saw that Shido, who had spoken, was unmoved by his words and was only smiling with narrowed eyes. He then showed a bored expression and continued speaking with his usual expressionless face.

"Although Shido is in this miserable state now... to be honest, there's no need to worry. It's true that the injury to his soul is a bit troublesome, but I don't need to do anything about it—after all, your divine soul will assimilate into Shido's body soon—although it will mainly raise Shido's rank, your massive soul will also repair Shido's shattered soul along the way—but I guess it won't be completely repaired, and some cracks will remain."

"Can't it be completely repaired?"

"What are you worrying about, you who are about to disappear? I have my own plans. If you can't even repair this little bit of soul damage on your own, then in the increasingly troublesome battles to come, Shido will only die."

He answered Shiro Shido's question with impatience, but upon hearing the otaku's reply, Shiro Shido simply smiled slightly.

"As expected—Mr. Otaku, you are trustworthy... Well then, I'll leave the rest to you."

After saying that, Shido's white body completely turned into light particles and disappeared, then merged into Shido's body. Through his gray eyes, the otaku could see very clearly that the soul, which had been partially shattered, became whole again. Although it was still flawed and had a few cracks, this was only because healing the soul was just a side effect. The real effect was that it raised Shido's rank.

"...Fine, I'll send Shido and Shiori back, and I'll go back too. As for the rest—I'll just trust those girls."

After saying that, as the original owner, the otaku activated the teleportation array in the Millennium Puzzle hanging around Shido and Shiori's necks, directly teleporting them back to his own world. Then, a gray wave swept across the otaku's body, causing him to disappear from this world.

————This is the long-awaited dividing line on the ground————

"I mean... could the battle already be over?"

Sitting on the ground, looking at the ruins of the once-powerful theater, Weber was speechless as he gazed at the surrounding ruins and the nearby sea of fire.

"Haha, probably, kid."

Rider, whose body had already begun to disappear, replied to Waver with a loud laugh.

"So this isn't a time to laugh! What happened while we were unconscious? Where did everyone else go? Why are we the only two left in the ruins when we woke up?!"

"It's just that you woke up too late, kid... Oh well, kid, the Holy Grail War is over, and I should return to the Throne of Heroes—although it's a huge regret not to have obtained the Holy Grail, meeting you was quite an experience! Haha, I hope to see you again next time, Waver!"

Laughing loudly, Rider turned into specks of light and disappeared. Waver, who was already a little confused by Rider's sudden disappearance, was now completely bewildered and loudly complained in the ruins.

"Don't just say nice things and then abruptly end it!!!!!"

Amidst the ruins and the surrounding sea of fire, Webber's loud rants are... quite comical.

----split line----

"Hey! There's a living child here!"

The red-haired boy, who had survived the sudden flames that took everything away, opened his eyes in a daze and saw a man's face with messy hair.

…………………The Dark Side…………………

In the midst of endless darkness, there are a pair of eyes and a figure, still chatting happily (?).

"This... is not just a simple obsession, but the meaning of my existence, the meaning of our existence—how much we have lost and how much we have suffered because of your struggle—you would never understand!"

The eyes merely gave a faint reply to the figure's pained tone.

“I don’t understand, that’s normal—but I do understand that you’re insane. You created that kind of being, and once it grows stronger, what you’ll create is a monster even more terrifying than it.”

The eyes stated the facts calmly, their tone revealing nothing of their intended message—and the figure merely sighed slightly at the eyes' words.

"Perhaps...but even if it's just for a moment, we want to see them."

The figure's tone contained an obsessive, almost fanatical, belief, while his eyes calmly uttered two words to the figure.

"madman."

Before the outbreak of war, Chapter 112 (Part 1)

Why did it turn out like this?

Weber stared blankly at the library, where piercing alarms were constantly blaring.

At this moment, he should be lying in his bed, celebrating that he had summoned two powerful Servants. Although their class wasn't one of the three great Knights, but rather Rider, these two Servants' base stats were well above average. They were undeniably powerful Servants.

But now, why are they running away like thieves?! Damn it! That's why I say I hate muscular men!

To understand the cause, we need to start from the end of the second Heroic Spirit summoning.

———Rewinding Time———

"The Eighth Heroic Spirit, the Rider of Servants. I ask you, are you the Master who summoned me?"

As soon as the blue-haired youth finished speaking, Weber, overjoyed, almost couldn't wait to reply.

"Yes! Yes! I am your master, Waver Velvet!!!"

In response to Waver's ecstatic joy, the blue-haired young heroic spirit simply gave a nonchalant reply.

"Understood. The contract is now established. Your fate is now in my hands."

After speaking, the blue-haired youth looked at the burly man in red, who then spoke.

"Alright. But I didn't expect it to be a servant with the same job as me!"

The burly man in red laughed heartily, then addressed Weber.

"Alright, kid. So you're my master?"

Having learned from his previous experience, Waver immediately answered the red-clad giant. Although it differed greatly from history, both used relics, and the person in front of him should be the one he originally wanted to summon... even though this person's voice was quite noisy.

The red-clad giant is known to the world as Iskandar Alexander the Great, the heroic figure.

The story of how a person's name was pronounced "King" in different regions is the reason that hero became the "Conqueror King." Not only did he inherit the Macedonian throne at the age of twenty, but he also led ancient Greece in a successful expedition against Persia. Then, in less than ten years, he completed the great feat of the "Eastern Expedition," sweeping across Egypt and the West Indies. He created an era known to the world as a representative of Greek culture, and was a true "King."

These thoughts flashed through Weber's mind in an instant, and he began to answer aloud.

“That’s right, I, Waver Velvet, am your master!”

Waver patted his chest, proudly announcing his name, since having two Heroic Spirits at the beginning was a great advantage.

The moment Waver said those words, information about two Heroic Spirits flashed through his mind. But before Waver could even look at them, Alexander the Conqueror suddenly reached out and lifted Waver up, saying...

Well, then again, compared to the Conqueror King's bear-like size, Waver is just a rabbit.

"Well, now that the contract is complete, kid, take me to the library right away."

"what?"

Weber gave a dumbfounded reply.

"Therefore, books! Books—"

The Conqueror King spoke impatiently again, lifting Weber as he spoke.

"If you're a magician, you should have one or two libraries, right? If so, lead the way quickly; this is necessary preparation for battle."

"War, battle?"

Until the giant reminded him, Waver, excited by summoning two Heroic Spirits, had completely forgotten about the Holy Grail War. Of course, Waver, who was merely staying with a commoner, couldn't possibly have access to a library, so he had no choice but to take Rider to the library.

The other Rider that Waver summoned followed him without saying a word. If the blue-haired youth hadn't spoken earlier, Waver would have suspected he was mute.

The blue-haired youth wasn't unwilling to speak; rather, he was beginning to digest and understand the knowledge suddenly being introduced into his mind.

(So that's how it is... The Holy Grail War, huh.)

Leaving aside the blue-haired youth's thoughts at this moment, because the Conqueror King's physique was too eye-catching, he was currently in spirit form following behind Waver, although Waver could still feel the pressure behind him at all times.

However, although the blue-haired youth was wearing strange clothes, he looked like an ordinary person... if you don't consider his temperament.

Fortunately, he didn't encounter any pedestrians on his way to the library, and Weber couldn't help but thank Lady Luck.

After walking a while longer, upon reaching the library entrance, Waver pointed to the library and spoke. At the same time, the oppressive aura behind him dissipated. It seemed the Conqueror King had entered the library in his spirit form.

At this point, Weber finally had some free time to look at the attributes of his two Servants.
