I'm really just human

However, unlike when using Kuuga's power to attack, the Tiger-type Gurongi did not die after the explosion, but turned into black mist and reassembled in another place.

"I see. It can only be destroyed with Kuuga's power?"

Natsukawa watched the Tiger-type Gurongi escape from the pursuit of the ant soldiers without taking any further action. He just glanced at Kondo Isami in knight state and turned to leave the scene.

"Hoohoo!"

On the other side of the woods, Murai Ryodai was sweating profusely and gasping for breath as he fell headfirst onto the grass beside the training ground.

"What's wrong with me?"

Feeling the tearing pain all over his body, Murai Ryo's big fingers gripped the grass.

"Just now...was that Master Shenyong?"

……

The next day.

Everything remained the same at the training base, except for the trainees quietly discussing the Gurongi invasion.

"Did you hear about the Gurongi invasion yesterday?"

"Well, it seems that Mr. Kondo threw a spear and repelled him..."

Fujiwara Saiji and his companions sat down with their plates in hand, and when they heard the discussion they couldn't help but look a few more times.

"These guys in Class B are being complacent again. What does their instructor's strength have to do with them?"

"Speaking of Mr. Kondo..."

Haruto glanced around the cafeteria in confusion and found Kondo Isami eating alone in a corner.

Although he was eating, Kondo Isami's fingers were shaking all the time and it took him a long time to eat a single bite of rice.

"Isn't it a bit strange today? He was so strong yesterday, but today he is completely silent. It's like he has become a different person."

"Is it weird?" Fujiwara Saiji was stunned. "Maybe Professor Kanei told the principal yesterday? And if you want to talk about weirdness, Ryoda was also not normal today... Hey, Ryoda, are you feeling unwell?"

Because they slept and trained together during the past two days, he put aside his pride and became friends with the others in a short time.

"Yes, a little."

Murai Ryodai's face turned pale as he forced a smile.

Last night he wanted to stay at the training ground for a while longer, but he suddenly lost consciousness and only vaguely saw Xia Chuan's figure.

I don’t know why, but the power in my body seemed to be afraid of Xia Chuan.

"Teacher Kaminaga!"

As soon as Xia Chuan entered the cafeteria, he heard the students greeting him. He smiled slightly, picked up his plate and went to the window to get his meal, but he found that Murai Ryodai was approaching him like a ghost, and finally sat opposite him to eat.

"What's wrong?" Xia Chuan asked curiously.

"Nothing, I just feel it's safer here." Murai Ryoda grinned.

"..."

Xia Chuan ignored this weirdo.

Although he didn't like privileges, it now seemed necessary to arrange a separate dining room for mentors, or at least to have a different place to eat.

He had no intention of developing relationships with the students.

Thinking of this, Xiachuan inadvertently glanced at Kondo Isami who was like a frightened bird in the corner.

It hasn't recovered after one night.

What on earth had provoked this guy?

I heard that soldiers who retreat from the front line are prone to stress reactions, but this person's reaction is a bit too exaggerated.

Besides, the other party hasn't retired yet.

Could it be that he was sent down to school because he had mental problems?

It is not impossible.

Xia Chuan felt a little sorry.

The Lance Knight system is a waste.

"asshole!"

Kondo Isami seemed to have read the meaning in Natsukawa's eyes. He raised his fingers in shame and anger, wanting to get angry. However, after his expression changed for a while, he found that he could not beat Natsukawa at all without transforming.

Last night, Xia Chuan not only used his exclusive spear, but he was also able to kill the Tiger-type Gurongi in an instant with a burst of energy.

Regardless of whether it was a coincidence or not, or whether he borrowed the power of his spear, it was very exaggerated.

It just doesn't look human.

Kondo Isami sat back in despair.

"Damn it, what the hell is going on here?"

Others may not be clear about the situation, but he thought a lot about it afterwards.

The Gurongi entering the base was most likely man-made, and there was also the Black Kuuga who appeared last night...

This base does have a big secret.

Chapter 18 Survive

2023-04-30

The rooftop of the base center building.

In the end, Kondo Isami had no appetite to eat. He walked to the rooftop in a daze, and after a while hesitantly dialed the phone.

"team leader."

"What?" A gentle laugh came from the other end of the phone. "Did you get results so soon? You are indeed Kondo..."

"no!"

Kondo Isami still couldn't stop his fingers from shaking.

"Captain, you never told me that there are such scary monsters here."

"monster?"

"It was Kuuga. I saw it with my own eyes!"

Kondo Isami said excitedly.

"That guy has turned into a black form. I'm afraid his danger level has exceeded level 4..."

"That's impossible, Kondo," the other party said with a smile, "You don't understand at all. It's impossible for a Level 5 Knight to appear in this world."

"what?"

"It looks like you've suffered a serious mental attack. How pitiful. Are you scared? If it doesn't work, come back. I'll let Xiaonan go over."

"I'm fine!" Kondo Isami's expression suddenly changed. "I just feel a little uncomfortable. I will adjust!"

"really?"

"real!"

Faced with the captain's questioning, Kondo Isami wiped his sweat repeatedly.

"And I did gain something. A mentor here named Kaminaga Shinji has amazing power. He actually used my weapon to repel a level 3 monster. It may be related to the plan of Master Fujiwara..."

"Kannaga Shinji?" The voice on the other end of the phone was disappointed. "You're mistaken. That guy was once Ultraman who saved mankind. It's no surprise that he's a little more powerful. Otherwise, do you think anyone can teach Kamen Rider?"

"Ultraman?" Kondo Isami looked grim, "That guy is actually the Ultraman from 5 years ago?!"

"Don't worry, it's all in the past. He is nothing now."

In an underground laboratory somewhere, a short-haired young man with a friendly face was observing several low-level Orphinos that were captured alive with a smile on his face.

"You don't have to think about anything now. Just help me keep an eye on the Knight School. By the way, pay special attention to the person dressed as Faiz. It is very likely related to the Knight system that the Fujiwara Foundation is developing."

"Faiz? Is that Onoue Takumi from Class A?"

Kondo Isami still remembers the student information.

He didn't want to contact the students in Class A at all now. Whenever he saw Class A's instructor Xia Chuan, he couldn't help but think of what happened last night.

His inner self-esteem made him not want to see Xia Chuan.

"Any problem?" the short-haired young man asked with a smile.

"No, no!" Kondo Isami trembled in response, "It's just a student, what's the problem?"

……

Comprehensive training hall.

Xia Chuan walked up to the stands and quietly glanced at the students in Class A who were doing basic training below.

Onoue Takumi, Watari and Kenzaki Kazuma were training almost desperately, which affected the others and they also started to compete with each other. Only Sakurai Keikazu was like a veteran who took advantage of the situation.

It is said that Tamura originally planned to let Sakurai Keikazu become the tutor of Class B, but this guy refused to agree.

Because of psychological trauma, Sakurai Keikazu seems to be resisting even the transformation from the bottom of his heart.

However, in Xiachuan's opinion, this guy has not completely given up fighting, otherwise he would not be able to stay in Class A.

"Fight?"

Xiachuan's thoughts wandered, and the private conversation with Tamura emerged in his mind.

The time left for him seems to be less than a year. In about a month, this group of students will participate in actual combat, and then they will also perform tasks while training in school.

Tamura hopes that he can improve the students' ability to survive as much as possible within a month.

Basic training is a long-term thing, and in the short term we can only start with the fusion coefficient.

Thinking of this, Xia Chuan clapped his hands and called everyone who was training over.

"Everyone, I've said before that even if you don't have a dream, there is always a reason to become a Kamen Rider. Next, I hope you will work hard to become stronger for this reason. Of course, I still don't recommend using the Rider System to compete for supremacy."

Natsukawa's gaze fell on Haruto, who had a relaxed expression, and paused for a moment.

This troublemaker may seem to have no problems on the surface, but in fact he has bigger problems than others.

This is not a world of knights, and there is no halo of the protagonist. People who have no strength but are too jumpy will most likely become cannon fodder in a month.

"Fujiwara."

Xia Chuan passed by several people and reminded them one by one.

"The core of thebee is responsibility and belief. Responsibility and firm belief can help you improve your integration coefficient. On the contrary, once you lose these, it is not impossible for you to be abandoned by thebee."

"Eh?" Fujiwara Saiji stared blankly at Natsukawa as he walked by.

abandon.

Is there anything worse than being forcibly transformed by someone else?

"Teacher, you..."

"Onoue," Natsukawa looked quietly at Onoue Takumi who continued to immerse himself in training, "Faiz may not have a fixed core, but I hope you can fight to survive."

Among the several trainees, only Onoue Takumi was training desperately, as if he was deliberately torturing himself, and his whole body was lifeless.

There is no public information about Orphino in this world yet, but Onoue Takumi himself has obviously noticed something.

As a monster that is accidentally resurrected after a person's death, especially the naturally resurrected Ophiino, he possesses considerable abilities even without transforming.

"To survive?" Onoue Takumi paused, and when he turned around, Natsukawa had already walked towards Watari.

"Cross."

Xia Chuan stopped in front of the boy who seemed rather distant.

Being able to use Kiva, it seems that he has vampire blood.

Vampires, as a non-human race in "Kiva", usually regard humans as food, and will attack humans uncontrollably if their nature cannot be suppressed.

I don’t know what’s going on with the teenager.
