Kamen Rider Zi-O, Dimensional Descent

The world around us was instantly restored to its former glory.

Yan Ming saw a colorful world, and he saw the real world he originally lived in.

That was when I was still very young.

His parents had to leave him at home and travel away by boat to Singapore to handle work matters.

Just then…

The cruise ship they were on had an accident, but only the area where the cruise ship was located was hit by a storm.

The waves swallowed the ship, and no one survived.

Is all of this really just a coincidence?

The scene shifts again, and this time Yan Ming sees himself after losing his parents.

When he entered primary school, the children in his class ostracized him because of his past experiences. However, Yan Ming did not resent his classmates because of this. Instead, he tried his best to integrate into the class and used his extraordinary brainpower to help his classmates who were in trouble.

After a long time, these classmates finally stopped ostracizing Yan Ming and began to accept him.

One night, several students who had a fairly good relationship with Yan Ming died.

The cause was unknown, and no matter how the police investigated, they could not come up with a reasonable explanation. In the end, they could only conclude that it was a sudden death.

But Yan Ming knew that the outcome would not be like that.

Soon, many more students in the class lost their lives. Some were better off, suffering only mental trauma without losing their lives, but they were still unable to attend school normally.

Everything points to Yan Ming.

The police began investigating Yan Ming, but they couldn't find any information no matter what they searched. Besides, how could such a young child kill so many children with an alibi?

From elementary school to junior high school, and from junior high school to high school.

During this period, countless accidents, countless encounters, and the experiences he had before his parents' deaths... all gradually made Yan Ming understand one thing.

Those who spend time with themselves will only encounter misfortune.

Those who survived claimed to have seen ghosts, spirits, demons, and monsters.

Some say it's something from urban legends, others say it's just a simple supernatural ghost; in short, opinions vary.

The reason these people are experiencing all this is simply because they are spending time with Yan Ming.

Although this phenomenon began to decrease as time passed and Yan Ming gradually approached eighteen, it still could not change the countless bloody memories of his childhood.

He began to isolate himself and stopped communicating with others.

Because if someone becomes one's companion, or even if one has a good relationship with someone, they will encounter misfortune, just like those people before.

To avoid this happening, he must be alone.

He understood that people at school would be afraid of him and wouldn't dare to approach him, so he accepted it all and stopped communicating with anyone... until after high school.

From the time she entered high school, people like Suwa Aoi began to gradually appear in her life.

Then there's Woz, Ainz Ooal Gown, Fujimaru Ritsuka, Gates, and the Crown Prince...

"You'll get them killed."

The sound came from beside my ear again.

"You don't deserve so-called friendship and loyalty. When you associate with these people, you don't even consider that you might cause them misfortune."

"You're just taking a chance. You think you're okay now, that the past is just history, so you don't need to worry about who you're with and who you might hurt. Foolish, so incredibly foolish."

"You will plunge everyone around you into tragedy... then death, then endless cycles of death, and finally, the complete annihilation of their souls."

You can never have anyone who is completely there for you.

"Just like before, Kalachakra Yama."

"They will all die."

"Just like the people you met when you were a child."

The sound kept swirling around his ears, seemingly trying to gradually destroy Yan Ming's spirit.

The world before them shattered.

"...So, what do you want me to do?"

"Admit it."

In the shattered world, standing before him was... a figure exactly like himself.

However, his eyes were blood red.

Unlike the calm and collected Yan Ming, the expression on his face was extremely strange.

"Admit what?"

"Admit that you are the lowest and most evil being, and you are destined to become a plague god who brings tragedy and misfortune to everyone. No one who comes into contact with you can have a happy ending."

"Acknowledge this about yourself, and then discard the illusions you're creating right now—that's the real you."

"You're not fighting to save anyone; you just want to gain people's favor and then let them die without them even realizing it."

"This is the true Kalachakra Yama, this is the darkest side buried in your heart."

That was like a devil's whisper.

The sound kept swirling around Yan Ming's ears, as if if Yan Ming agreed in the next instant, endless darkness would devour his current consciousness and replace his real self with a world-destroying demon king.

"Admit it."

It came close to my ear.

"This is the real you—wait, what?!"

Then… the shadowy figure stared wide-eyed blankly.

It was simply because that hand was gripping his neck tightly.

"I never said I was going to deny these things."

With just five fingers, Shi Lun Yan Ming grabbed the shadowy figure by the neck and lifted it high into the vast darkness.

His expression was calm and indifferent.

"It's not because I want to cause others to suffer that I pretend to be a hypocrite when I approach them."

"It's because I know I've brought immense misfortune to others in the past, and I know what it feels like to lose everyone around you. I don't want others to experience the same feelings as me, and I don't want others to suffer because of similar misfortunes. That's why I wanted to do this."

"you--"

"I have never intended to deny what you have said."

Yan Ming ignored the words of the shadowy figure that was trying to bewitch him.

"But—you are the one who has taken it upon yourself to deny my current situation."

A massive rift appeared in the dark world.

"why?"

The shadowy figure stared at him, then slowly spoke.

"Why are you so strong?"

"Whether it's physical strength or mental strength, it's all so indestructible—"

"How did you become so strong, Shilun Yanming?"

then.

When asked about the shadowy figure, Yan Ming simply replied with a very basic statement.

At this moment.

Yan Ming seemed to see a dark golden figure walking towards him in the distance.

That is the ultimate time ruler who controls all of space and time.

As he drew closer—and then transformed into a figure of silver and purple.

That is—the Zi-O with two clock hands on his helmet.

Then consciousness ceased at this point.

------------------

Bang! !

The territory known as the Mirror World collapsed.

Yan Ming landed in this world that was on the verge of collapse, and standing in front of him was Long Ya, who looked shocked.

"What...what on earth happened?!"

Yan Ming ignored his shock.

He looked at his right hand... where he was tightly gripping something.

It's a silver watch with only half a dial.

Volume 4, Knights' War: Chapter 90, Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain...?

"This is…"

Yan Ming stared at the watch face in his hand.

The main body is silver, with a king's head image in the center and a wheel-like device on the right.

Its left side is incomplete, and it's obvious that something else can connect it to it.

Why did I get this thing? Was it because of my own enlightenment that the watch face flew out of Wozniak's book?

That doesn't seem to be the case.

Yan Ming held the watch face, and he could vaguely sense something hidden within it—like endless energy.

He didn't know why he had obtained this thing, nor did he know why it was so broken and incomplete.

but.

Considering what just happened, this must be related to the voice in my heart that I heard after arriving in the Mirror World.

"How is this possible... The Mirror World has actually—collapsed?!"

Shinji Kido, who was standing to the side, exclaimed in disbelief.

From his perspective, the world suddenly became bizarre after he pulled that guy named Yan Ming into the picture.

Everything happened in an instant.

The environment of the Mirror World collapsed, the earth shattered, the sky tore apart, and the cracks stretched all the way to what seemed to be the end of dimensions and spacetime, as if countless universes had been forcibly created.

From Shinji Kido's perspective, this was nothing short of a disaster, a sight never seen in any of the mirror worlds.

And who caused all of this? It's very likely the guy right in front of us.

Who exactly is this Shilun Yanming?!

"Wait, why are you..."

At this moment, Shinji Kido finally realized what was happening and quickly looked in Yan Ming's direction.

If it weren't for the Kamen Rider from the Ryuki world entering the Mirror World, they definitely wouldn't have been able to stay here for long.

But the other party seemed completely unaffected.

Why? Why is he completely unharmed in this mirror world? His plan, along with the other two Dark Knights', was to lure Yan Ming, the enemy's strongest fighter, into this place and let him fend for himself!

"Never mind that for now, let's deal with that first."

Yan Ming slowly turned his head and looked directly at Shinji Kido behind him.

The way he spoke made it sound like he considered himself trash that could be easily removed at any time.

"hateful!"

Shinji Kido was immediately filled with immense anger.
