Kamen Rider: Prince of Shadow

"Sorry, Ryo, I can't go back..."

When Aki Sakaki said these words, Gills felt as if the sky had fallen. He wanted to ask God why he was always so cruel to him.

Fate played another nasty joke on him.

The repeated blows made Gills angry. He looked at Nobuhiko, his savior, and slowly raised his right hand. He wanted to fight, fighting desperately, but that hand was constantly trembling.

Looking at the trembling right hand, Nobuhiko sighed:

"She has killed an innocent person. Even as an ordinary person, she cannot continue to live as she did before."

"Mr. Qiuyue, do you plan to judge us by your own will?"

"It doesn't matter if you think so. To me, this is just a job."

Nobuhiko said calmly.

Such a gentle voice made Yajituo on the side feel dissatisfied, and he said:

"How can it be like this? Is the matter that determines a person's life and death just a job to you?"

"The policemen who arrest people, the judges who make judgments, and the people who carry out executions are all jobs for them. My current job is to be the limiter of the rampaging superpowers and Yajita."

Nobuhiko spoke without hesitation, then, his eyes swept over Yajituo and Gills, and said:

"If the person who was killed was someone close to you, you wouldn't be entangled here."

"...What exactly is this power? Mr. Qiuyue! You said you would let me control this power and accept this power, but so far, who has this power brought to us? It's just disaster. That’s all!”

Suddenly, Gills roared hysterically.

He didn't understand, apart from giving him combat power beyond ordinary people, what benefits did this power have?

He lost his career, his girlfriend, everything, and was even dragged into a never-ending battle, so why did he need this power? Now, even Sakaki Aki has fallen into the abyss of darkness because of this power.

From their perspective, the power of light does seem like a curse.

It's safer without it.

Looking at Gills's hysterical roar, Nobuhiko took a deep breath and said slowly:

"This force has made mankind what it is today."

"well?"

"Even without awakening, this power gives humans the potential to create the future. It is precisely because of this that humans can develop such a brilliant civilization. Without this power, humans would be no different from beasts."

Nobuhiko spoke slowly.

Although it was not shown in the play, Nobuhiko once saw it in a post forum. It is precisely because of the power of light that mankind can achieve such a future.

Nowadays, even the awakening of the power of light is a test for mankind.

"I know this is painful for you, but there is no use escaping, because sooner or later all humans will awaken to this power..."

Nobuhiko's words made Yajita and Gills look at each other in confusion. At this moment, Nobuhiko continued:

"And if you don't accept this power, unknown will gradually kill everyone. Whether you sit back and wait for death, or use this power to rise up and resist, it depends on your choice. Anyway, for me, even if the whole world is destroyed , I can leave too.”

After saying that, Nobuhiko turned around and came to the two hound lords, and said to the two knights:

"If you will resent me for this and want to seek revenge from me, you are free to do so. Of course, I will not stop at that time. I already have the consciousness to kill."

After speaking the last words, Nobuhiko activated his power and disappeared with the two venerables.

Watching the direction he left, the two knights looked at each other speechlessly, not knowing how to speak.

Suddenly, a rapid siren sounded in the distance - the police were coming.

This is of course, the person who was attacked is the policeman, and it is natural for him to call his colleagues after escaping.

Yajituo and Gills obviously didn't want to deal with each other now, so they each got on their motorcycles and left.

On the other side, Nobuhiko led the three people to the deserted bridge. Two hound masters restrained Sakaki Aki on the left and right, making him unable to resist. Of course, Sakaki Aki did not show any resistance. She seemed to be determined to die and had no intention of resisting.

Nobuhiko motioned to the two sages to unlock the chains, and then said to Sakaki Aki:

"Anything else to say?"

"Actually, I kept thinking about it after that - if I hadn't boarded that ship, these things wouldn't have happened..."

Sakaki Aki said, unable to hold back tears from the corners of his eyes.

Seeing her look, Nobuhiko couldn't help but sigh. Was what Aki Sakaki did wrong? To be honest, if Nobuhiko saw Kotaro being killed by someone, he would not hesitate to take revenge, no matter whether the person was a human or not. Aki Sakaki's only mistake was not to find out the life and death of Ryo Shiraihara, which made her revenge become error.

A policeman died in her hands.

"Maybe, but, like I said, this power belonged to humans a long time ago."

"... Mr. Qiuyue... right? How do you want to kill me? Let them? If possible, at least I want to die in the hands of humans."

Aki Sakaki made her last request.

Nobuhiko didn't say much, he stretched out his right hand, and the Satan Sword fell into his hand. The blood-red blade shone brightly under the moonlight. The sword was very sharp and would not cause any pain to the opponent.

However, at this moment, Nobuhiko's hand trembled a little.

It was strange. He had remained absolutely calm in the face of various powerful enemies in the battle, but now, facing the woman Aki Sakaki, he hesitated.

In fact, it was very simple. If Kamiyaki killed people simply to vent his anger, Nobuhiko would not have any hesitation, but now, the woman in front of him could only be attributed to the word pitiful.

Therefore, such Aki Sakaki made Nobuhiko clearly feel the weight of life.

It is really a terrible thing to control the life and death of others at will.

However, in the final analysis, this is also a matter of time.

Nobuhiko laughed at himself and raised his sword to cut it down.

But at this moment, his mobile phone suddenly rang.

"Ding-ling-ling..."

Nobuhiko put down his sword and answered the phone. A familiar voice came from the other end:

"Mr. Akizuki, this is Ichijo. Where are you now?"

"What's the matter?"

"Please hand that woman over to me! Please! This is the duty of the police!"

Ichijo Kaoru's words were filled with unprecedented toughness, which made Nobuhiko subconsciously tell him where he was.

A few minutes later, Ichijo Kaoru drove here. He almost ran out of the car before the car stopped and ran straight to Nobuhiko.

"Hirota, who was attacked, is a member of the mobile team. He heard the conversation between you and called for help, so I came here."

Ichijo Kaoru explained the reason for his coming, and then solemnly said to Nobuhiko:

"Mr. Akizuki, please, since it is a criminal, please hand it over to us. This is also the duty of the police."

"·······"

Ichijo's eyes revealed determination. From this point alone, Nobuhiko knew that he could not change the other party's mind.

"Why?"

Nobuhiko couldn't help but ask, why did Kaoru Ichijo insist on taking Aki Sakaki away? There must be a reason.

"Because I am a policeman, and... Mr. Akizuki also said that Agito's power is an opportunity and a challenge for humans. In the future, there will definitely be more supernatural crimes, so, at least from now on, humans must adapt to the era when Agito lives around them."

Kaoru Ichijo expressed his thoughts. After hearing what Nobuhiko said about Agito, he thought about it like this. Now, it is just an opportunity.

The law has a lag, and the evil of human beings is beyond doubt. Even if criminals are only a small part, they also represent the inevitability of superpower criminals. Therefore, Kaoru Ichijo hopes to take Aki Sakaki as an opportunity to introduce laws against superpower criminals. This is necessary for the era when Agito and humans live together.

It sounds a bit naive, but everything is difficult at the beginning. No matter what they will encounter in the process, at least they have taken the first step.

After hearing what Kaoru Ichijo said, Nobuhiko was silent for a long time. He put away the Satan Sword, walked straight forward, raised his hand and released his power to Aki Sakaki.

Whoosh!

A blue light flashed, and a crescent-shaped emblem appeared on Aki Sakaki's neck.

At the moment when the emblem appeared, Aki Sakaki felt a sense of weakness - her power disappeared.

"I sealed your ability, but if necessary, you can also contact me through the emblem. After all, psychics are also human beings, even criminals."

Nobuhiko spoke up. In the Agito movie, there is an experimental plan for psychics.

He hopes that Aki Sakaki can be tried like an ordinary prisoner, instead of being subjected to cruel experiments because of her identity as a psychic.

Kaoru Ichijo naturally understands this. He can't guarantee anything, but he will do his best to protect the other party's human rights.

"At 11:27 p.m., the criminal Aki Sakaki has been arrested."

Ichijo Kaoru brought Aki Sakaki to the police car, while Nobuhiko watched her leave, and then disappeared from the scene with the two venerables.

In the police car, Aki Sakaki suddenly asked:

"Are you worried that he would kill someone?"

"Huh?"

"I can feel that you don't want him to kill someone."

"No one wants their friends to kill people, no matter what the reason is."

Ichijo Kaoru sighed and said solemnly:

"I know that for them, once they reach the point of killing someone, it must be a painful decision, so, at least in this regard, I want to help them."

"That's great, but... looking at his appearance just now, although it was painful, he was ready."

Recalling Nobuhiko's sword-raising posture just now, Aki Sakaki murmured.

"Then I hope that this day will come later, and the work of harvesting lives will be left to the police."

After saying this, Ichijo Kaoru stopped talking and continued to drive the car.

At the same time, Xin Yan, who was about to return with the Hound Lords, suddenly felt a force enveloping him during the teleportation process. Before he could react, he was already in an unfamiliar room.

In front of him, Heishen was sitting on the bed, looking at him calmly:

"You are the same as me..."
