Kamen Rider: Prince of Shadow

Under the leadership of Saeko who had transformed into a doped body, Sudo Kirihiko stepped onto the luxurious carpet with bare feet. He was extremely excited, but he maintained a confident smile on his face.

When he comes here, it means that he has officially become a member of the Sonosaki family and is one step closer to his dream.

Colorful gauze fell from the second floor. Sonosaki Wakana and Sonosaki Ryuhei, who were also in mixed-body poses, and even the pet cat Mick, stood behind the gauze, looking at the naked Sudo Kirihiko.

Wakana did not feel embarrassed by the other party's gesture, but instead joked:

"Oh, he looks good."

Yes, Sudo Kirihiko's appearance is indeed handsome, and the muscles on his body add a lot of masculinity to him. It can be said that in terms of appearance alone, he is definitely an ideal man.

"hiss········"

Mick's posture as a hybrid of a saber-toothed tiger is even more ferocious. His eyes are fixed on Sudou Kirihiko, as if looking at prey.

And Sonosaki Ryubei looked at the other party with another look - that was looking at the experimental subject. Before Sudou Kirihiko came up, Sonosaki Ryuhei took out a golden memory stick with the initials N on it that looked like a mural.

"This is a Gaia memory that is only given to members of the Sonosaki family. If you do this, you may die. Do you have any last words?"

"A son-in-law that makes you proud is born, father-in-law!"

After that, Sudou Kirihiko took the memory, put on the drive, pressed the switch without hesitation, and inserted it into his belt.

Nasca (Nascar)——!

The memory containing the Nazca murals, which is the memory of the earth, the totem of God, is activated. In the light, he turns into a blue sword-wielding warrior. If you look closely, there are Nazca murals everywhere on his body. pattern.

At this moment, Sudo Kirihiko officially became Sonosaki Kirihiko.

"Zezi has chosen a good man. It just so happens that I have a task for you."

Sonosaki Ryuhei nodded slightly, and then continued:

"Recently, a guy with no knowledge of the world is robbing memories, which has had a great impact on our business. As your first show, choose him as your target."

"clear."

Sonosaki Kirihiko wiped his sword casually and said confidently.

A few days later...

Nobuhiko sat on a bench by the street, enjoying the evening breeze and yawned.

"Huh... You always choose to do it at night, can't you just send a cadre over?"

Nobuhiko complained in his heart.

Ever since he snatched the box of memory, he has been constantly being hunted by the museum. Of course, Nobuhiko could easily deal with an enemy of that level. However, the opponent seemed to want to use fatigue tactics and sent a steady stream of miscellaneous soldiers to the area. A sneak attack on Nobuhiko late at night.

Although it didn't have much impact on Nobuhiko, mosquitoes were still annoying when there were too many, so he simply went to the museum's salesperson and robbed several boxes of memory as revenge, of course, without any money.

After all, a box of memory costs four to five million yen, so don’t spend it if you can.

"Ha... Do you want to get a haircut? I've been a little tired lately."

Nobuhiko glanced at the barber shop next to him and said to himself.

However, as soon as he said this, a voice came to his ears:

"The owner of that shop is really good at his craftsmanship, but you can't enjoy it anymore, Mr. Locust."

"I'm alone this time."

Nobuhiko was not surprised. Since the war with the museum, the sensor device in his body had been on all the time, and the lion fought the rabbit with all his strength.

He stood up slowly, turned around and saw a familiar face.

Sonosaki Kirihiko, another brother-in-law.

With this thought in his mind, Nobuhiko said casually:

"I hope you are different from those idiots. Your boss is too evil. His subordinates work hard but only give them the memory of the idiots."

"Please rest assured, this is a special version."

Sonosaki Kirihiko took out his golden memory, then looked at the barber shop, and continued:

"It's too small here. I know a place that's perfect for a duel."

"Surprisingly reasonable, are you really a cadre?"

"Of course, I am the pioneer of human evolution. Likewise, I will not allow this city to be destroyed."

"emm...how many buildings have been destroyed by the combination of lava and Tyrannosaurus last time?"

Nobuhiko complained casually, and walked over with Kirihiko Sonosaki while holding the motorcycle.

There was an open space there, indeed a suitable place for a duel.

Nobuhiko took out the memory and pointed to the box on the motorcycle:

"As you can see, this is your memory. If you win, I can take it away."

"I will do the same thing if you don't tell me. Of course, your head will also become my trophy."

Having said that, Sonosaki Kirihiko took the drive without hesitation and started the memory.

Nasca (Nascar)——!

Locust——!

With the sound of two beeps, the two of them completed the transformation at the same time. Then, without much words from both sides, the two figures suddenly collided with each other.

boom--!

This time, the two sides were evenly matched, and no one took advantage. Nobuhiko's face remained as normal, and without pausing, he attacked with both legs and fought with superb leg skills.

The largest increase in the physical aspect of the Locust Memory is naturally the leg muscles. Coupled with the increase in the Emperor Stone in Nobuhiko's body, the Locust Memory has developed to a very strong level in a short period of time.

Even facing the current Sonosaki Kirihiko, he is not inferior.

"Huh, they are indeed locusts, what about this one?"

Sensing how difficult Nobuhiko was, Kirihiko made a quick decision and immediately spread his wings and flew into the sky. He raised his hand and aimed at Nobuhiko and released blue light bombs.

Boom—boom—boom—!

Violent explosions exploded in the open space one after another. However, a scene that surprised Kirihiko happened - Nobuhiko easily dodged all the attacks during the fierce bombing, and could even predict Kirihiko's attacks in advance. Trajectory - The neural response reinforced by the locust's memory comes into play at this moment.

"How can this be?"

Sonosaki Kirihiko couldn't believe it. He had naturally read Nobuhiko's information and knew that the other party had not obtained the memory for more than a week. How could it be developed to this extent? Or this kind of ordinary memory.

But this time, he was distracted. Nobuhiko saw the right moment, waved his hand, and the blazing fireball shot towards Kirihiko instantly.

"asshole--!"

Kirihiko reacted and blocked the blow with his sword. He was a little angry because his first action was suppressed by the ordinary dopant.

Immediately, the scarf-like decoration on his back instantly extended and he sped towards Nobuhiko.

The ability of advanced memory is evident, and Kirihiko has already demonstrated many abilities when using it for the first time.

But unfortunately, for Nobuhiko, even if he only uses the Locust Memory, his outstanding combat experience cannot be matched by his opponent.

Just like that, at the moment of decorating the attack, Nobuhiko jumped into the air and kicked out, accurately hitting the opponent's chest.

boom--!

Immediately, Kirihiko was kicked to the ground awkwardly, while Nobuhiko landed calmly, looked at Kirihiko and said relaxedly:

"You are much better than those guys, but it's a pity that you don't have time to develop such a good memory, right?"

"asshole·······"

Kirihiko was actually fine. Nazca's excellent defense prevented him from causing much damage, but his unlucky start really made him angry. He stood up suddenly and rushed towards Nobuhiko with a sharp sword in hand.

"Sword?"

Seeing this, Nobuhiko jumped over the opponent and said calmly:

"I have that kind of thing too."

As he spoke, under Kirihiko's shocked gaze, Nobuhiko stretched out his hand and forcibly broke off a joint on his back.

Phew——!

Blood splattered everywhere, but Nobuhiko's expression remained normal. With a flick of his hand, the joints turned into sharp sword blades, and the two fought together again.

However, it was not just the museum that was attracted to Nobuhiko.

On a high building not far from the open space, a woman wearing a black dress and her whole body covered in bandages was quietly watching the battle. To be precise - observing Nobuhiko's performance.

"Locust memory? It has been developed to this extent in a short period of time. Maybe it is a guy that can be developed."

After hearing the legend of the Locust Monster, she became interested. After all, what Nobuhiko was doing was harming the interests of the museum.

At this moment, Nobuhiko's outstanding performance also left a deep impression on her heart.

"Maybe we can add another candidate... huh?"

Suddenly, she frowned - a man wearing a black shirt and a hat walked out of the barber shop not far away.

"Shoutaro Zuo...you are here too."

There was a hint of contempt in his tone.

As Shotaro Zuo walked out of the barber shop, he did not feel the sight of the masked woman, but instead captured other information:

"Is this... an explosion?"

Shotaro Zuo subconsciously looked at the place where Nobuhiko and Kirihiko were fighting.

ps: Let’s talk about the price of memory. Because there is no clear price in the drama, I ignored it in the previous chapter, but I later discovered a detail. In the second episode, the Marina couple bought lava and Tyrannosaurus memory and took them. The money in the thick envelope looks about five centimeters. After a rough calculation, if it contains all 10,000-yen bills, it will be around 500,000 yen, so the price should be 200,000 yen.

Relevant details in the previous chapter have been modified.
