Kamen Rider, but with a wild start.

Reflecting on what had happened during that time, he gradually seemed to realize something.

Ukiyo Hidetoshi slowly raised his finger and pointed to himself.

"……I?"

The headlights of the two armored vehicles were fixed on him.

After a long silence, Ukiyo Hidetoshi suddenly raised his right hand and saw that he was holding a double-colored buckle with clasps.

—Thruster MKIX with buckle!

Why are you here?

The power that had always made him wary was now in his hands. Ukiyo Hidetoshi was stunned as the memory of meeting another Hidetoshi in the dark space gradually became clear.

He remembered; it seemed to be a choice he had made himself.

Because he needs this strength now.

Just then, the two geared vehicles suddenly sped away and quickly hid. Ukiyo Hidetoshi also noticed something, put away the MKIX buckle in his hand, and turned to look.

A young man emerged from the street corner ahead, wearing a dark windbreaker, sporting a flaxen bowl cut hairstyle, and light-rimmed glasses, looking like a scholar.

This figure is undoubtedly a contestant in the Desire Grand Prix.

"Looks like I found you first, Extreme Fox!"

The other person gave him a gentle and harmless smile.

Fu Shi Ying Shou's eyes flickered slightly: "Ling Que, I'm very happy to see you back in the Desire Grand Prix. So, are you here to deal with me?"

Kamen Rider Reijaku – Daichi Isuzu – once made it to the final round of a certain "Grand Prix of Desire" in this era, but was eliminated after his memories were erased because Hidetoshi Ukiyo won first place and became the "God of Desire".

Those who are eliminated are generally not invited back by DGP. The fact that Ba Niu, Tai Li, and Na Mao are participating again is due to the selfishness of the game administrators.

Lingque, who has now returned to participate directly in the final round of the "Desire Grand Prix," was obviously recalled by DGP operations as an exception.

Now that things have come to this point, Hidetoshi Ukiyo has no intention of continuing to participate in this Grand Prix of Desire, but he also doesn't want to be defeated so easily.

So he took out the Desire Driver and put it on.

ENTRY!

The sound effects from the core then play.

But Daichi Isuzu stopped him, saying, "Wait, I have no intention of fighting you right now. It's better to save defeating you for last."

He even turned and left after saying that.

Standing still, Ukiyo Hidetoshi paused for a moment, then crossed his arms and sighed—saying he'd save it for last was just a way to wait for him and the other contestants to both be severely injured.

"It's been a long time, Eiji!"

Sounds came from the steps not far away.

Ukiyo Eiju looked up and saw a woman standing there, dressed smartly in a combat jacket.

Kamen Rider Wolf Soul - Gaara Hazama.

I don't know how long she stared there, but after Hidetoshi Ukiyo looked over, my domineering self tilted her head and said, "But, you're a star now, Hidetoshi-sama~"

“He’s the star of stars!” Hidetoshi Ukiyo emphasized.

"Oh……"

I raised my eyebrows with a hint of disdain: "This time, I will definitely beat you!"

She already had the Desire Driver and Core ID on her waist. After greeting everyone, she didn't waste any more words and directly took out the Power Builder Belt Buckle and inserted it into her belt.

SET!

"Deployed Powered System!" 』

"Gigant Sword!"

Gaina Hasae transformed into a Kamen Rider with a blue wolf head mask, her Power Builder belt forming armor on her upper body, and a red longsword appearing in her hand.

This is—Kamen Rider Wolf Soul!

She didn't rush to attack, but instead raised the gigabit greatsword and rested it on her shoulder, then gestured to Ukiyo Hidetoshi below.

Seeing this, Ukiyo Hidetoshi also became slightly serious and reached out to grab the buckles of the other knights.

His expression changed slightly when he found nothing again.

The thruster buckle that he used from beginning to end had already been used up in the battle against the demons of the Rafflesia Fortress. Now, he only has an MKII buckle that he can't use easily, and an MKIX buckle that is not yet ready to be used.

But it shouldn't be like that!

He clearly still has the fanatic slot with a buckle!

Without the Rider Buckle, Hidetoshi Ukiyo's Kamen Rider transformation is just the most basic "login state," without any armor or power enhancements.

How could a fox like that possibly survive being surrounded by five Kamen Riders!

Wolf Soul waited patiently for a while, but in the end, all he got was Extreme Fox silently changing its login form.

"..."

"..."

The scene fell silent. The two men, one above the other, stared at each other. Wolf Soul slowly lowered the gigantic greatsword that had been resting on his shoulder, as if he had realized something.

Seeing this, Daichi Isuzu, who was hiding in the corner watching the battle, raised his hand and pushed up his glasses, the lenses reflecting a flash of light.

"No buckle? That's not right..."

That guy was clearly holding something that looked like a thruster buckle in his hand, but before he could take a closer look, Ukiyo Hidetoshi put it away.

Thinking of this, Daichi Isuzu, who had already installed his core ID and was preparing to steal kills, held back and decided to observe the battle between the two sides first.

After all, foxes are cunning animals.

……

……

"Why aren't you surprised at all?"

"what?"

In the dim, deep green space.

Upon hearing this, Kino looked away from the live broadcast window and turned her attention to the person standing next to her.

He said with a serious expression, "Because I also wanted to see a surprised expression on your face, I certainly couldn't be 'surprised' before you. Now I'm very satisfied with the result."

White-haired Eiju: "..."

After staring at the person in front of him for a long time, the white-haired Eiji controlled the slightly twitching facial muscles and said expressionlessly, "The Extreme Fox cannot avoid this kind of hunting operation. In the end, he will still accept the power of creation."

“Didn’t you already decide that fate was on your side? If that’s the case, why are you still forcing him now?” Kino said.

“If you hadn’t interfered with the Desire Grand Prix, I naturally wouldn’t have interfered with the growth of Extreme Fox.” White-haired Eiji looked at him.

"This is not growth."

Kino's bright eyes darkened, and he said with a deep gaze, "This is creation!"

Hidetoshi Shirafuji curled his lips: "That's right. Even the power of creation has an unchangeable destiny. From the very beginning, the Extreme Fox was destined to embark on this path of shaping!"

He did not deny it.

How exactly was Eisho born two thousand years ago?

With an indelible chasm between the "future person" and the "past person," Mitzme prayed to the world, and the power of miracles led her to give birth to this child who seemed to exist in a "time gap."

Without any warning, Eiju began to reincarnate repeatedly through "death" and "rebirth," a force that was the power of creation from the very beginning.

In this present era, Mitzme, who has become the "Goddess of Creation," faces the prospect of exhausting her power.

Therefore, even without the creation of Tsumuri by Sel, Hidetoshi Ukiyo might have inherited all the power of creation when his death in this life began after Mitzmee completely dissipated.

To become the next creator god of this world.

It's like an inevitable path.

A cruel cycle that fundamentally requires no tempering, only waiting.

"Yingshou..."

Kino smiled at him: "You live in the distant future. You knew from the beginning what would happen if Sel created the Desire Grand Prix, but you didn't intend to stop it. Is this the fate of those chosen Kamen Riders? -- No, this has never been a story of Kamen Riders saving the world. This is just your choice to escape reality."

"I told you, you don't understand anything—"

“I said, this is shaping.”

With a calm yet forceful tone, Kino interrupted Hidetoshi's words without room for argument, and gave a light, enigmatic laugh: "This is a shaping of a destiny different from yours."

He wasn't referring to Hidetoshi's life as it was before him.

Hidetoshi, with his white hair, stared intently at him, his deep blue eyes as dark and silent as the ocean, before finally uttering a cold sentence.

"Extreme Fox is destined to die."

……

……

In the city at this time.

After finishing his part-time job, Master Azuma hurried towards his destination while browsing information on Spider's phone.

"Operation Fox Hunt? What's that...?"

This task is absolutely perfect!

Spider Phone also provides a game map, with a red dot on it that, just like the one used to mark the final boss, locks onto the location of the Extreme Fox.

The Knight's core ID is, after all, a product of the [Desire Grand Prix]. As long as this privilege is used during the mission, DGP will always find a way to locate the participants.

If all participants could get a spot on the Extreme Fox, the battle might already be underway.

Master Wuzhi quickened his pace.

But then he suddenly stopped.

On the concrete ground ahead, a magenta mission box sat all alone.

Master Azuma paused for a moment, then stepped forward, picked up the box, and opened it. Inside lay a bright red thruster buckle.

He touched the zombie belt buckle on his body again.

Perhaps because this round of the game was an additional round of the previous Desire Grand Prix, the core IDs and knight buckles of the participants were not retrieved, and the knight buckles they had previously possessed were still on their bodies.

So now, this thruster buckle...

Master Azuma recalled that when they were dealing with the demons at the Great Flower Fortress, it seemed that the Extreme Fox had used up the thruster buckle.

Therefore, it is indeed possible that the thruster buckle could be refreshed.

Looking at the thruster buckle that he had never drawn before, Azuma Michonji immediately thought of Sakurai Kagekazu. He couldn't help but chuckle and put the thruster away.

"A little trick in operations..."

……

Chapter 121 An Ending That Never Happened

DGP Login Plaza.

Tsumuri stared in disbelief at the blank white screen of the giant fox: "Why? Where's Eiji's buckle?"

How can you fight knights without a buckle?

It doesn't even matter whether you transform or not!

Tsumuri didn't understand why this was happening, but when she thought of Niram's confident demeanor before he left, she had already accepted in her heart that it was the game's producer's doing.

After Nilam returned, the live broadcast of the Desire Grand Prix resumed.

The big screen showed Kamen Rider Kyoko and Kamen Rider Ryuko facing off, and all the future viewers were eager to see the moment when the "invincible god of desire," Kyoko, was defeated.

Even if this battle is fundamentally unfair.

Located in the DGP screening room—
