Chapter 538 The Beginning of the Mutation
【Heterogeneous Zi-O line】

night.

Amanokawa High School.

Corridor of the school building.

In the realm of stillness.

Kakogawa Hiryu, transformed into a different kind of Zi-OⅡ, holds a short spear in each hand, and quickly passes through a group of stardust ninjas.

Accompanied by the light of the dark powder's blade, stardust ninjas exploded one by one.

Although these historical remnants can move freely in the realm of time-stop, their own power has not been enhanced by their own characteristics of "historical remnants".

On the contrary, when they crawl out of the cracks of history, they will be weakened accordingly.

Because, this world does not belong to them.

However, as Kakogawa Hiryu said when he asked Monyashi before, recently, the residues that have invaded this world have begun to show varying degrees of mutation.

For example, the team of stardust ninjas he just killed used to only use katana for physical attacks, but today, just like real ninjas, they used elemental ninjutsu attacks against him.

Although they are still weak, this phenomenon is very disturbing.

So, what exactly caused this mutation?

And what kind of connection does the reason that caused this mutation have with Tokiwa Sogo?
As soon as he thought of this, Monyashi's "suggestion" immediately echoed in Kakogawa Hiryu's mind uncontrollably.

[kill him. ]
[Kill... Tokiwa Sogo! ]
Immediately, a memory obtained after he got the strange Zi-OⅡ watch resurfaced uncontrollably from the depths of Kakogawa Hiryu's heart.

That was an event that happened in the original history.

……

A doomsday-like broken world, people running in panic, and terrifying giant robots.

The children born in 2000 who were brought to that world by the mysterious man in black were forced to participate in a trial of life and death.

During the trial, a giant robot attacked and destroyed the building, causing a pile of building debris to smash towards the children.

Facing the building debris falling from the sky, the screaming children immediately began to flee the scene.

However, among them, there was a person who suddenly started to go against the flow of people after looking back.

"Danger!!!"

His eyes were full of belief in wanting to save people.

He was Tokiwa Sogo when he was a child.

And in the direction that Sogo Tokiwa was desperately returning to, right below the place where the building fragments fell, there was a person lying there unconscious and defenseless.

Tokiwa Sogo saved that person desperately.

And the person who was rescued by Tokiwa Sogo was none other than Kakogawa Hiryu when he was a child.

……

After the memory was over, Kakogawa Hiryu's hands were tightly clenched.

"hateful!"

Listening to the suggestion that Kakogawa Hiryu swung his right hand out again in his mind, Kakogawa Hiryu punched through the wall beside him.

"Since you want me to kill him, don't let me see that period of history from the very beginning!"

After a long time, Kakogawa Hiryu, who finally calmed down, turned and left.

At the same time, the strange knight armor on his body disappeared.

Behind him, the shattered walls began to heal.

When the time flow resumed again, the battlefield just now had been completely restored to its original state.

Kakogawa Hiryu has also left Amanokawa High School.

……

at the same time.

outside world.

On the rooftop overlooking Amanogawa High School, a tall and thin man was standing there holding a strangely shaped blue pistol.

In the night wind, the white trench coat on his body fluttered.

Haidong tree.

He watched Kakogawa Hiryu who suddenly appeared on the street outside Amanokawa High School and walked away slowly, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but smile.

"Oh, it's you, the chosen... thief?"

At this point, the smile on Haidong Dashu's face deepened.

"Well, it doesn't matter who it is."

He withdrew his gaze from looking at Kakogawa Hiryu, looking at the world.

"Anyway, I won't let you monopolize the treasures of this world, Shi!"

……

the next day.

early morning.

Without an alarm clock, Sogo Tokiwa's biological clock has already woken him up.

Opening his eyes, Sogo Tokiwa took a deep breath, climbed out of the warm bed with perseverance, and changed into the sportswear for morning exercise.

Standing in front of the desk, exercising his hands and feet to warm up, Tokiwa Sogo said to his friend, the little robot on the desk:
"Very well, congratulate me, friend.

"Today, I will shorten the distance to the throne by another step!"

The little robot couldn't answer anything.

But it doesn't matter, Sogo Tokiwa has long been used to the silence of his friend.

"see you later."

He bid farewell to his friend who couldn't speak, turned around, and walked out of the room.

And behind Sogo Tokiwa, on the desk, his robot friend silently watched the back of Sogo Tokiwa moving forward.

When the perspective is changed, you can see that on the back of the little robot, there is such a sentence written with a black marker:
【WILL BE THE KING! 】

——will be king in the end.

……

……

【Zi-O line】

"Be careful on the road."

"Um……"

Facing Junichiro Tokiwa's congratulations, Aura pursed her lips, feeling embarrassed when her mood was interrupted by Gates' rough words.

"Well, you're big, you should say 'I! Out! Out! Out!'"

Ola: "..."

She glared at Gates angrily, turned and walked away quickly.

Gates: "???"

Did I said wrong thing?No.

baffling.

Gates, who was stared at by Ola, frowned, turned around and bid farewell to Junichiro Tokiwa.

"We're off."

After speaking, he turned around and quickly chased after Ola.

And looking at the back of them leaving, Tokiwa Junichiro smiled, and suddenly couldn't help sighing.

"It's really youthful."

……

In the future ruled by the king of the devil, no matter what the reason, the world is indeed barren.

The life of the demon king's rebels who lived in that era was even more difficult.

Therefore, whether it is Gates or Ola, their youth has no particularly good memories.

Desolation, training, dilapidation, fighting, fleeing, battlefield...

Compared with that dark age full of despair, this imperfect world in front of us is just like heaven.

"Hey! Ola!"

Gates' shout interrupted Ola's recollection.

"Have you had enough trouble? I don't have extra time to waste on your temper!"

At Gates' shout, she stopped and turned around.

"Then why don't you just leave?"

"I……"

Ola's words stopped Gates' shouting abruptly.

Carefully observing Gates' expression, Ola, who saw the obvious entanglement and hostility in Gates' eyes, understood the truth.

"Hmph, it seems that Shi Wang has told you about me."

The King of Time didn't regard her as a useless tool that would be discarded like Swaruz did... This discovery made the corner of Aura's mouth raise a slight arc, but it disappeared quickly.

"That's good, you didn't come to help me, you just came to repay the favor I gave to King Shi before..."

Ola helped Gates speak his mind.

"If thinking like this makes you feel lighter, then you can think about it this way, and I'm fine."

"..."

Looking at the loneliness and alienation in Ola's eyes when he said these words, and subconsciously recalling Ola's intimacy and defenselessness when he faced Junichiro Tokiwa in the nine-to-five class, Gates couldn't help thinking, which one is the one? is real you?
But soon, Gates put the idea behind him.

"Come on, what's the problem with you?"

Hearing this, Ola was silent for a moment, then, she looked closely into Gates' eyes and said seriously:

"My brother, Ur, is missing!"
