Self-cultivation of Kamen Rider ZIO

Chapter 444 Fable
"Oh?"

Denton's words aroused Sogo Tokiwa's interest.

"What's the matter?"

Having said that, Sogo Tokiwa could probably guess what Denton wanted to ask.

Denton in this period was simpler than he imagined.

On the contrary, it is another person, and his mind is much more complicated...

Thinking of this, Tokiwa Sogo couldn't help squinting his eyes, and a meaningful chuckle curled up at the corner of his mouth.

Denton, who happened to see Sougo Tokiwa's expression, suddenly became more nervous. He couldn't help swallowing his parched throat, and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to ask about the latest zero of the Red Death Disease." How long can the death rate last?"

"There is something, I think you have misunderstood."

Hearing this, Tokiwa Sogo secretly said "Sure enough", but slowly shook his head.

"Denton, you must know that since the outbreak of the Red Death Disease, I have only controlled Alicia's illness..."

This unexpected answer from Sougo Tokiwa stunned Denton's mind.

at the same time……

"Meow~"

You Liuxian let out a cry in Tokiwa Sogo's arms.

Heh... bowing his head, Tokiwa Sogo took a look at You Liuxian, and couldn't help being amused.

'That's right, Master You Liuxian is right. '

He tapped You Liuxian's forehead, thinking: Yes, if it is not limited to the human category, he has indeed used extraordinary power on two cats.

It's just that Denton, who can't understand cat language, obviously failed to understand the meaning of the interaction between Sogo Tokiwa and You Liuxian.

Moreover, it was only then that he recovered from the astonishment just now.

"You...you mean..."

"Oh, why, don't you believe me?"

Looking up, Sougo Tokiwa looked at Denton, who still had a lot of astonishment on his face, paused, slightly raised the corners of his lips, and said with a smile.

"Denton, do you remember the butterflies on Earth?"

Looking at Denton who was stunned again because of this sentence, Tokiwa Sogo continued.

"It seems that I remember it. Then, I wonder if you have observed the process of the caterpillar breaking out of its cocoon and turning into a butterfly? Hehe, that was really a long and difficult time..."

Following Tokiwa Sogo's narration, a pale golden mist appeared above the desk, condensing a mirage.

In the picture, the camera is facing a cocoon with a small opening. Inside the cocoon, there is a butterfly struggling to get out of the small opening, but no matter how hard it struggles, the situation does not seem to get any better...

Tokiwa Soogo put You Liuxian on the table, got up, looked at the butterfly in the cocoon, and said meaningfully.

"The situation is different, Denton. After these years of development, you are no longer the tribe that you couldn't survive if I didn't use my extraordinary power."

Denton looked at the mirage: "...You mean, we are the butterflies in the cocoon, and the red death disease is the cocoon that binds us?"

"Yes."

Tokiwa Sogo glanced at Denton, nodded appreciatively, and continued.

"So, you must rely on your own strength to survive, otherwise..."

Following Tokiwa Shogo's words fell.

"His!"

A strange voice suddenly sounded.

I saw that the cocoon in the mirage was suddenly torn open by force from the outside world, allowing the butterfly to crawl out of the cocoon easily.

However, the butterfly that was supposed to stretch its wings after breaking out of the cocoon, show its beautiful figure, and fly into the sky has no beauty at all. It is shrunken, thin, and its wings are tightly attached to the body, unable to stretch , let alone flying.

There is no doubt that this is a very failed butterfly.

For the rest of its life, it will only be able to crawl on the ground, with no wings, but it will never be able to touch the sky.

At the same time, how long can it live like this?

Denton watched the scene in a daze, and following Sogo Tokiwa's next words, he involuntarily brought himself into the butterfly in the picture.

"How? If you were that butterfly, would you give up the whole sky just for a moment of relaxation?"

"—I don't want to!"

Subconsciously, Denton answered instantly.

Tokiwa Sogo smiled.

"That's right, I don't want to, and neither do I."

Following Tokiwa Shogo's words sounded.

Above the desk, the picture in the mirage, the cocoon, and the butterfly began to play backwards, as if time was going backwards.

Soon, the scene before the cocoon was torn apart was restored again.

Tokiwa Sogo's voice continued.

"You are my people, and when you suffer, my heart also suffers, but it is precisely because I am your king that I cannot take away the suffering you have to go through."

The butterfly in the mirage began to struggle hard again from the small mouth to the outside. Its body was strangled by the small mouth of the cocoon, which looked extremely painful.

"Danton, I am not a god. I am also a person who has the same life as you and lives in the same long river of time. One day, I will leave."

Sogo Tokiwa told Denton frankly that he would leave this world.

"At that time, the only ones who can help you continue to go down are you yourself."

These words made Denton look back at the mirage and look at Sogo Tokiwa.

I saw Tokiwa Sogo walking around the desk and walking towards him while continuing to talk.

"I deeply believe in the possibility of human beings. The zero death rate you asked me about during this period is one of the evidences of human possibility-it is the power of the heart, it is the miracle of hope, and you continue The next job is to work hard to make the hope we brought to them during this period become real and continue."

At this point, Tokiwa Sogo's tone began to deepen.

"So, go open up the future, Denton! Instead of praying for unknown mysterious powers, open the way to the future with your own hands and wisdom.

"If it's you, you can definitely do it!

"Just as I believe deeply in the possibility of humanity, I also believe deeply in you.

"Because you are my people!

"So, Denton, do you also believe in the possibility of human beings, your own possibility?

"Just like, I believe in you."

Tokiwa Sogo walked up to Denton, his deep eyes fixed on Denton's eyes that were close at hand.

In his eyes, Denton saw sincerity, trust, and kindness that didn't match Tokiwa Shogo's young face, but in Denton's eyes, there was no sense of disobedience at all.

"I believe!"

Denton replied with an unusually firm tone.

From Denton's eyes, Tokiwa Sogo saw the respect and trust from the heart.

He knew that with the belief in opening up the future for this world, Denton had become his most loyal retainer in this world.

In the mirage, the butterfly finally broke free from the cocoon at this time, spread its beautiful and healthy wings, and flew around Denton with a golden shimmer, and then turned into a phantom in the process of flying into the sky disappear.

Butterflies disappeared, but did not disappear.

Because, it has been engraved in Denton's heart forever.

Next, Denton began to report to work.

Then, discuss with Tokiwa Shogo about the treatment plan for the red death disease.

Tokiwa Shogo gave a very instructive thought.

Denton retired respectfully with a contented face.

Tokiwa Sogo returned to the chair behind the desk and sat down, hugged You Liuxian who jumped on his legs and lay down again, and looked towards the door.

"Crack!"

The door opens, the door closes.

Edith walked in quickly.

And as soon as you come in, it smells like gunpowder.

"King of time! Alicia's red death disease, did you arrange it?"

To this, Tokiwa Sogo's eyes were fixed, and then he only said: "If I say yes, what should you do?"
