Chapter 69

Nene Arakawa seemed to remember something and took out an admission notice and a contract.

"It wouldn't do to let the knight who protects world peace go hungry. This is the appointment notice for honorary employees of the Kurama Group. Starting today... Mr. Sakurai, you have been officially hired by the Kurama Group."

As she spoke, Nene Arakawa placed the acceptance letter and contract in front of Keiwa Sakurai. She had gone back to the Kurama Family yesterday, this time with Firefly.

After Firefly's divine support sided with her, her mother was somewhat reluctant, but Kōsei Arakawa had no objections.

He used to rely on those Future People from DGP in many ways, but now that DGP no longer exists in this world, it's naturally best for him to maintain a good relationship with the gods of this world.

This is just a rational thought; emotionally... Kōsei Arakawa is also very happy that Nene Arakawa can live happily.

"An honorary employee of Anma Group?!"

Seeing what Nene Arakawa took out, Keiwa Sakurai was even more shocked and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"It's really just a nominal position; there are no work requirements, but you still get paid as usual..."

Nene Arakawa explained the nature of the job. She had actually considered offering a higher salary, but decided against it because it wasn't a suitable option.

At least for Keiwa Sakurai, his livelihood is no longer a problem, and his sister no longer needs to work two or three jobs.

Is this really a good idea?

Keiwa Sakurai hesitated, not out of disdain, but because he felt he didn't deserve such treatment.

"There's nothing wrong with it. Do you want Sister Shaluo to work several jobs to support you?"

"No, of course I don't want to!"

Keiwa Sakurai glanced at his older sister beside him and quickly shook his head; he naturally had no such inappropriate thoughts.

"That's settled then, let's sign it!"

He then slammed the pen down in front of Keiwa Sakurai.

"..."

After glancing at his sister and the notice and contract in front of him, Keiwa Sakurai still picked up a pen and wrote down his name.

"That's right. Sister Shaluo won't have to work so hard anymore. The salaries of Anma Group employees are very high, more than enough for the whole family to live on."

Seeing that Keiwa Sakurai had signed his name, Nene Arakawa nodded in satisfaction.

"Thanks!"

After thinking for a few seconds, Keiwa Sakurai stood up and earnestly thanked Nene Arakawa in front of him.

"What's the point of this? Kurama Group already employs so many people, one more won't make a difference. Besides, it was Firefly-chan who got my dad to agree to this. Moreover, you have an even more important job: protecting the world!"

"Firefly-chan? I'm so sorry, thank you so much."

Keiwa Sakurai quickly thanked Firefly again before continuing, "Protecting the world... I will never forget that, as long as there is a need for me."

"But this buckle is strange, it's completely different from the buckles used in previous DGP Grand Prix."

"This is a special buckle created directly by the Creation Power; it should suit you very well."

If it were the old Desire Grand Prix, such a buckle would only be obtainable by becoming Desire God, making it incomparable to other buckles.

"The Creation Power..."

I don't know what power is.

Keiwa Sakurai wasn't in a hurry to try it; now wasn't the time, everyone was eating.

But then Tsumuri got up and walked over to Sara Sakurai, handing her a Vision Driver that had been modified by Firefly.

"Miss Sara, from today onwards, you are Kamen Rider!"

This is one of them.

The other modified Vision Driver is used by Tsumuri.

Although it lacks control over the Creation Power and cannot expand the realm of game rules, its value is still above that of ordinary Desire Driver.

"Why?"

"Why?!"

This scene caused Sara Sakurai and the Keiwa Sakurai, to exclaim in surprise.

"I?"

Looking at the driver in front of her, Sara Sakurai hesitated and pointed at herself.

"My sister has become Kamen Rider too?"

Keiwa Sakurai also hesitated. If possible, he didn't really want his sister to become Kamen Rider because it was too dangerous.

However, if danger really comes, ordinary people without any power will only be in greater danger.

Having the power of Kamen Rider at least allows one to directly confront danger.

"Firefly-chan, why did you make my sister Kamen Rider too?"

Keiwa Sakurai didn't understand, and turned to look at Firefly. There was no need to think too much; this was naturally Firefly's arrangement.

"I know you're worried about your sister's safety. But have you ever thought that when real danger comes, ordinary people are the first to be in danger?"

"Becoming Kamen Rider actually increases the chances of survival."

Moreover, with the Light Cone she gave to Sara Sakurai, things wouldn't go wrong so easily.

As for why Sara Sakurai was chosen to be Kamen Rider, there's no other reason than it's quite simple...

"There are very few people I can trust in this world, and Sister Sara is one of them."

Is that so?

Listening to Firefly's explanation, Keiwa Sakurai thought of the last time. If Firefly hadn't appeared, his sister might have already been...

If my sister had also possessed the power of Kamen Rider back then, perhaps things wouldn't have turned out this way.

That makes perfect sense, and he couldn't find any reason to object.

"Thank you, Firefly-chan."

"Am I now Kamen Rider, just like Keiwa, protecting the world?"

Although it was a bit unfamiliar, Sara Sakurai accepted the driver and the custom-made Fate Card in front of her, it seemed that she had also lost the opportunity to work.

No wonder they prepared this kind of work for Jinghe in advance.

Just as Firefly and her companions were exchanging words, two Future People were watching Earth from a mysterious space outside of Earth.

"Mera, should we continue?"

With heavy makeup and a striking appearance, the Future People Melo stared at the display screen in front of her, which showed the location of Tokyo.

Looking at the situation on Earth, she looked a little surprised and turned to ask a fat man dressed like a magician next to her. He was Mela.

Mela is a vicious fugitive from the future who travels through different eras to kill gods and is known as the "Godslayer".

He killed Loki in the era of Norse mythology, taking away his mimicry ability, and impersonated Hodur in order to kill Baldr.

Then, he unexpectedly encounters "Wind," a staff member of the future TV program "Myth Report."

He told the wind that his purpose in killing the god was simply to make himself happy, and there was no other reason. The wind was then spurred on by his words and began to think, eventually awakening to his true self and deciding to live only to please himself.

So he redesigned his image and changed his name to "Godslayer Mello".

Even when Mela was later surrounded by a pursuing force from the future, she escaped with Melo's help and used the divine power she had once seized to grow to a gigantic size, thus killing the pursuing force.

The two then established a base in the spacetime rift, and at the same time, Mela began to follow Melo's advice and broadcast her god-slaying process to Future People.

After killing Susanoo of Japan mythology, Mela originally intended to deal with Kouta Kazuha (Kamen Rider Gaim), the man of creation. However, on Melo's advice, he prioritized the world of the Creation Goddess.

"I thought it would be against the Geats, but it turned out to be Kamen Rider Eurynome..."

"But since we're already here, we can't leave empty-handed."

"The Creation Power, I'm very curious about that too!"

"Then let's play a game first!" Although it wasn't quite what she expected, Mela wasn't prepared to give up so easily, whether it was the Geats or this Creation Goddess.

All I need to do is defeat her, then destroy the entire world, setting a new record for the fastest world destruction speed.

The rest is not important.

"As expected of Mela, let's get started. I can't wait to start the live stream."

Upon hearing that Mela was planning to destroy the world, Melo clapped his hands excitedly and took out his phone, which was connected to the future live streaming platform.

"It will officially begin very soon."

As she spoke, Mela took out something that looked like a game controller and pressed it without hesitation, pointing it at the Earth.

"Long time no see, everyone! We're about to start slaying gods and destroying the world again!"

"Will the God Slayer Mela be able to break her previous record for world-destroying speed this time? Let's wait and see!"

At this point, Melo had already started his live stream and began explaining the purpose of the stream to his future viewers. Many people were criticizing them, while others were expressing their anticipation.

Because their live streams are broadcast to all Future People, and as wanted criminals... it's a completely different kind of legitimate live stream compared to DGP's operations, which are considered regular programs.

"Of course I can. This time I will destroy this world at an even faster pace."

After listening to Melo's words, Mela finished what she was doing, went to her phone, and answered the audience with great certainty.

Destroying worlds and myths was nothing new for him; he was already quite adept at it.

Meanwhile, on Earth, things changed drastically after Mela pressed that control button.

It was accompanied by a huge commotion that could be heard all over the world.

Then an enormous, colossal object, seemingly reaching directly into the universe, appeared in the city of Tokyo, giving the impression of the legendary World Tree.

Moreover, the World Tree is bearing fruit, which is ripening rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Following closely...

A fruit, seemingly ripe to the point of no return, fell from the tree.

Bang!!

The fruit hit the ground and exploded, spilling its juice everywhere.

But...

"Pod! Pod! Pod!"

The Jamato that had been unseen for so long actually appeared from this fruit.

"A giant tree suddenly appeared!"

"What is this? Fruit from a tree? No, it's a monster, a monster!"

"What... what is that thing? A monster came out of the fruit."

As the fruits ripened and fell from the suddenly appearing tree, transforming into Jamato, the surrounding humans were filled with panic and began desperately fleeing in the opposite direction.

But once these Jamato noticed the humans' movements, they all gave chase.

Such a huge commotion naturally caught the attention of Firefly and the others at Tanuki Ramen Shop, and they all came out immediately.

Then, the group looked at the suddenly appearing, colossal tree that stretched straight to the sky, and their expressions were filled with shock.

"What exactly is going on?"

"What a huge tree! It must reach all the way to the sky!"

"And on the trees, there are so many fruits, they'll ripen in the blink of an eye!"

Nene Arakawa Keiwa Sakurai stared at the large tree in front of them, completely bewildered as everything had been fine just moments before.
