Kamen Rider: Prince of Shadow

Qiuyue Kyoko's mood was very complicated now. She looked at herself quietly in the mirror, her pretty face set off by her white wedding dress even more radiant.

She was getting married, but the bustle around her seemed to have nothing to do with her. In fact, even though it was the most important moment in her life, her mood was more complicated than joyful.

Everything comes from the person she saw today - Nobuhiko Akizuki, who is also her brother.

No, it should be said that he is a blood brother, and his soul has long been replaced by another person.

If we only look at her childhood, Qiuyue Kyoko grew up happily, in a harmonious and happy family, with two brothers who loved her equally. Her father was a socialite, and it can be said that he had nothing to do with his life.

But all this happened on the day of her brothers' nineteenth birthday.

Everything changed. Her father was killed, her brother was killed, and only her adopted brother escaped and was even transformed into a monster by Gorgom. Later, she watched helplessly as her brother became Gorgom's son. The leader, under the control of the King of Creation, launched a desperate duel with his sworn brother Minami Kotaro, and even made the brothers fratricide a foregone conclusion.

After that, she fled to the United States. Although she received the news of Gorgom's defeat, she still refused to return to that sad place, and the original love between her and her adopted brother completely disappeared.

However, no one expected that just half a year later, her brother, Nobuhiko Akizuki, would be resurrected.

But as said before, only the body is resurrected, but the spirit becomes a different person.

Nobuhiko didn't hide anything. He told Minami Kotaro everything from the beginning, and Minami Kotaro also conveyed everything to her.

At that moment, Qiuyue Kyoko briefly experienced from heaven to hell, and she even came up with this idea - why can't she hide it? If that person didn't make everything clear, then at least she got a beautiful lie that allowed her to gain the knowledge that her loved ones were resurrected.

However, after calming down, she also understood - what is fake is fake after all. Even if she inherits her brother's memory, she is a completely different person. It is better to make it clear from the beginning. After all, give people hope first, and then give them hope. If hope is broken, it will be extremely despairing.

At that moment, Qiuyue Kyoko's desire to meet this "brother" emerged in her heart, and finally, she did.

Frankly speaking, he did not shame Akizuki Nobuhiko. He made Akizuki Nobuhiko's identity no longer simply the Lord of Gorgom or the King of the Century, but - Kamen Rider Shadow Moon! Together with Minami Kotaro, he defeated the Krysis Empire as a Kamen Rider.

This may be the best comfort for her brother - this is what Kyoko Qiuyue thinks.

Then, she also met this "brother" who had come back from the dead as she wished.

Everything is so familiar, perhaps because of the memory that has been completely inherited, even the usual details are exactly the same.

However, it was not true after all, Kyoko was sure of it.

After a brief meeting, Nobuhiko left, not just leaving the United States, but leaving the world - according to Kotaro's brother, it was so that the owner of the Imperial Stone would not see each other for a while.

Frankly speaking, Kyoko thought everything would end like this. Even if Nobuhiko received a gift from his brother and inherited everything from his brother, he would eventually have his own life. Kyoko knew that this was normal.

However, what happened recently made her unexpected - Nobuhiko is here.

Listening to Minami Kotaro's words, Nobuhiko wanted to fulfill the promise - to attend her wedding. This was okay originally, but when Kyoko saw Nobuhiko, she couldn't help but ask:

["Are you here because of my brother?"

"There are reasons for this."

Nobuhiko said very frankly that Qiuyue Nobuhiko's memory definitely had an impact on him. After all, it was all the memories of a person's nearly twenty years of life.

However, the final reason is not this:

"But if I only have his memory, it cannot affect me. I am here more because of my own will - I will fulfill the responsibility of 'Akiyuki Nobuhiko'."

"Really? Thanks."】

As her thoughts turned around, there was a knock on the door in the dressing room. Kyoko stood up and opened the door, only to find Nobuhiko standing outside the door, wearing a white suit, exactly the same as the one at the nineteenth birthday party, even his appearance. Same as then.

"you……"

"I was a little worried about you, so I came over to take a look."

Nobuhiko said.

When he comes this time, he will serve as a relative of the woman and deliver the apricots to the groom.

The groom is a very good man, whom he met at work. He matches Kyoko's temperament and hobbies, so Kyoko opens her heart and accepts him.

His character was also confirmed by the Sato family and Minami Kotaro. Otherwise, with Kyoko's savings and property, she could have lived a wealthy life even without getting married. Minami Kotaro separated Professor Akizuki's property and handed it over to a dedicated person to take care of it. The largest portion was given to Kyoko.

"I'm fine, it's okay."

Xingzi opened her mouth and said this dryly. She really didn't know what to say.

The atmosphere seemed to be in a strange state at this moment.

Nobuhiko didn't urge him, he just stood at the door and stared at her quietly:

"In front of me, you can speak freely. Although I am not your real brother, I have inherited all your brother's memories and can be said to be one of the people who knows you best. Of course, if you don't want to speak, you don't have to force me. I just hope you can understand - there is more than just Minami Kotaro behind you."

As soon as these words came out, Kyoko suddenly raised her head and looked at Nobuhiko. Crystal tears fell from the corners of her eyes involuntarily. In the blur of tears, the person in front of her and the person she had been thinking about day and night gradually overlapped...

This was a luxurious wedding. The two sages transformed into girls served as flower girls. The bright petals were flying up and down as if they were alive under the influence of telepathy. The beautiful bride, with the support of Nobuhiko, was dancing around her. Amidst the clapping of the guests, she entered the sacred hall, and she was about to welcome her new life.

Click——!

The shutter sound sounded, and Kadoyaji pulled the shutter to take a picture of this scene.

Kadoya Saya on the side curled her lips:

"My skills are obviously not good, yet I still like to take pictures so much."

"What are you talking about? It's obviously the world that is rejecting me, but even the world should be open to me on a special day like a wedding."

Yes, Nobuhiko also invited them, partners who had fought side by side in different time and space, to witness this scene together.

Kisaragi Gentarou, Kisaragi Nadeshiko, Kuzuba Kota, Koji Mai, Tokiwa Shogo, etc., all came to this church.

"I'm so envious..."

Kadaya Saya looked at Akizuki Kyoko and said subconsciously.

As soon as these words came out, Kado Yaji immediately became vigilant, put down the camera and said:

"You are still young, so there is no need to envy her."

"How can you not be envious? She is wearing a wedding dress and standing next to brother Qiuyue. Obviously I am also a sister..."

"well?!"

Before Kadashi could react, the church became noisy at this moment - the bride threw the bouquet in her hand. Under everyone's gaze, Xiaoye jumped up and firmly took the bouquet.

Watching this scene, Kado Yashi suddenly felt that things seemed to be developing in an unexpected direction...

ps: After much thought, I decided to give Kyoko an ending. To be fair, I don’t know if the RX period is related to the actor’s schedule, so I cut Kyoko and Kotaro directly...

In addition, this volume is written from the perspective of other characters, and it only lasts a few chapters. Once it is finished, it will be truly finished.

Finally, don’t dwell on age and time. (End of chapter)
