Chapter 214: The Joker Born for This
Institute of Human History.
It can also be referred to as BOARD.
This is a scientific research organization created by the top chaebol king Lu Boshi after he discovered the existence of the "Sealing Stone" in order to obtain the supreme power of immortality. He used his wealth and power to create it.
The other party secretly manipulated all of this, prompting Yoshito Hirose, who wanted to resurrect his deceased wife, to release Undead and promote the development of the Knight system.
But that knight system was flawed.
It can be said that the tragedy of Kamen Rider Blade was created by this person.
I don’t know where the story is going now?
Kawahara looked at the black card in his hand thoughtfully, and suddenly threw it towards the Sealing Stone. In his will, the card turned into a beetle monster with a hideous appearance.
"Ho..."
The newly born beetle monster looked at its own appearance in astonishment, then it came to its senses and suddenly looked at Kawahara in front of it with an indifferent expression.
The sturdy monster versus the fragile human, no matter how you look at it, the opponent will be shattered with one punch.
But the beetle monster was afraid and dared not make any move.
Kawahara looked at it and said calmly: "Since you want to participate in this battle, I will give you this opportunity. The final winner will be able to gain the power to control the world, and so will you, but..."
The beetle monster clenched its fists and stared at him.
Kawahara raised a meaningful smile: "You only have one chance."
wow——
As he finished his words, the floating seal stone twisted into a geometric shape again, absorbed the unsuspecting beetle monster below, and disappeared in an instant.
As for where he went...
Of course, I will take the players to the Undead competition.
……
The Sealing Stone is really just a program.
Without instructions, the Sealing Stone will not preside over the battle even if all the Undead are released.
However, among the fifty-three Undead, only JOKER has the power to seal the Undead on his own. Even if the other Undead defeat their opponents, they can only be sealed with the help of the Sealing Stone.
The basis for victory is to seal the opponent.
But the Sealing Stone doesn't work this time...
Therefore, from the very beginning, this extreme war that has begun in modern times is more unfair to other races than it was ten thousand years ago.
Because they have no channels to win.
The Undead who was sealed earlier didn't know the truth yet, but the Queen of Clubs, who participated in this holy war wholeheartedly for the sake of her race, found out at the end that the "Ultimate War" had not started at all. This battle was just a meaningless battle caused by humans, so she was immediately mentally broken...
And Kawahara comes back this time.
Naturally, there is no plan to restart the "Ultimate War" to overthrow the world.
He really was just giving King Roboshi a chance to join the battle. The other side didn't even have a representative of the Undead race. Of course, if this guy really won...
Absolutely impossible!
The possible opportunity has been killed!
Thinking of this, Kawahara lowered his head and looked at his palms. He said in a low voice with an inexplicable look on his face: "The power of the ruler is really terrifying..."
Because you can do whatever you want.
So it is easy to play with life recklessly, or even manipulate the entire world.
Just like he directly favored humans in the "Ultimate War" ten thousand years ago, thus turning this racial holy war into an unfair joke, perhaps there is a kind of favoritism in his bones.
But a ruler who does whatever he wants will never do anything good for the world.
For example, if the god in this world is easily emotional, he will break his defense and destroy the world just because he is hit by a human...
After criticizing Kurosaurus in his mind as usual, Kawahara temporarily put aside all the thoughts in his mind, turned around, sat on the Ultimate Chaser, and flew out directly through the dome of the hall.
Shortly after he left, the staff of the BOARD Institute finally noticed the commotion and rushed over.
But there was nothing left at the scene except a mess, including the "ruler" they had been studying for all these years.
……
……
Jacaranda Cafe.
A slightly thin young man sat by the window, holding a guitar in his arms and playing it softly. Occasionally, he would glance at the little girl sitting opposite him and listening with a gentle expression.
The little girl's name is Kurihara Tianyin. She is nine years old this year. The person she admires and likes most is the brother in front of her who has a special temperament.
The flowers on the wall outside the store were blooming vigorously, and the sunlight shone through the window onto the two of them.
This was supposed to be a very warm afternoon.
However, the next moment, the young man's fingertips suddenly exerted force, and the guitar strings suddenly broke!
"what?"
Kurihara Tianyin, who was sitting opposite him, asked in surprise, "Hajime-nii, what's wrong with you?"
The young man's expression suddenly froze for a moment. He turned his head to look in a certain direction outside the window and saw a black stone slab emerging in the sky, and then a monster was thrown down from it.
"Bang!"
Aikawa Hajime was so shocked that he stood up suddenly, and the chair behind him and the guitar in his arms were knocked to the ground.
Kurihara Tenon exclaimed and quickly hugged the fallen guitar, looking at Aikawa Hajime who had completely lost his composure with even greater confusion.
"What happened? Brother Hajime!" Kurihara Tenon grabbed Aikawa Hajime's arm worriedly.
However, Aikawa Hajime simply shook off her hand, turned around and ran out without saying a word!
Kurihara Tianyin subconsciously wanted to chase after him, but she tripped over an overturned chair and fell to the ground.
She cried out in pain and quickly looked towards Aikawa Hajime's back, trying to get his attention, but the young man disappeared from her sight without even turning his head.
“…Hajime-nii-nii?”
……
……
Kawahara asked the Sealing Stone to take the King Lu Hiroshi to participate in the battle of Undead.
But what if there's no Undead fighting?
The operation of the Sealing Stone is very simple.
Throw it directly to JOKER!
Among all the undead creatures, JOKER has the strongest fighting instinct, because the purpose of its creation is to seal other races. This is its innate mission.
So after the undead creatures were unleashed in modern times, while other races were still wondering whether the "Ultimate War" had begun again, JOKER had already taken action without hesitation.
It sealed the Ace of Hearts and...
2 of Hearts - Human Undead!
If Kawahara wants to know what stage the story has reached, the easiest way is to find an Undead to see the situation.
So after he flew out on the Ultimate Tracker, he almost immediately agreed with the idea of the Sealing Stone, and quickly found the JOKER with the strongest aura among the undead creatures.
However, the person with the JOKER vibe at the bottom is the image of the 2 of Hearts.
The human youth has gentle features, but they are not the same as the clear and warm Heart 2 ten thousand years ago. Such a kind face was forced by JOKER to make it look cold and melancholy.
The Ultimate Tracker found a rooftop and landed on it. Kawahara looked thoughtfully at the young man who was confronting the beetle monster on the street.
“Aikawa Hajime…?”
JOKER who calls himself "Hajime Aikawa".
……
As the human Undead who won 2 years ago, in a way, Heart should have lived in this world for years.
And after the undead creatures were unsealed again, he was sealed by JOKER so quickly that it is hard to say whether JOKER found him or he took the initiative to find JOKER.
after all……
After that, JOKER, who used the Two of Hearts card to transform into a human, suddenly had some different ideas. He actually began to resist his own behavior of sealing the Undead.
It even gave itself a human name - Hajime Aikawa.
Originally created as a combat weapon, JOKER seems to have begun to have ideas of its own.
He disguised himself as a human and entered human society. He took the initiative to interact with humans, observing and learning about human emotions. As a result, he made himself more and more like a real human.
Kawahara suddenly remembered what Plum K said.
——"Only humans can deal with JOKER."
……
"Well……"
At this moment, Aikawa Hajime, who had run out, suddenly covered his head in pain. He looked at the beetle monster thrown out by the Sealing Stone in front of him, with his brows tightly furrowed.
"Undead? No! You're not…"
He knew the appearance of every undead creature.
But there is no memory of this beetle race.
However, it was the Sealing Stone that had just thrown this monster out.
That is the ruler who has not been seen for a long time——
He had seen rulers before, but he had never faced this kind of emotional concept of "ruler" before.
But now, Aikawa Hajime suddenly felt fear in his heart. Just looking at the beetle monster in front of him, he took out a card and prepared for battle, and this was almost an instinctive action.
So do we want to fight?
There doesn't seem to be any reason to refuse.
——He was born for this.
"Forget it, no matter who you are, I will get rid of you!" He said in his usual cold tone.
"Ho...ho..."
The beetle monster that fell to the ground gasped heavily. It climbed up from the ground, looked at its hideous body and sharp claws, and tried to speak the human language, but the sound it made was indeed a hoarse beast roar.
No...No! It shouldn't be like this!
He should be a higher-level ruler!
As if his reason was taken over by the rage rising in his body, King Lu Boshi let out an angry roar and suddenly pounced towards Aikawa Hajime in front of him!
A red JOKER buckle appeared on Aikawa Hajime's waist, and he drew the Ace of Hearts card in his hand without hesitation.
"CHANGE!"
Heart——Kamen Rider Chalice!
