I, Den-O, Contract Urban Legend

"Today, today! I can finally transform for the first time!"

"Inoue Ueya"'s gray scarf fluttered in the wind, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, and then he took the black pass and swept it to the transformation belt at his waist.

[Nega Form]

Imitating the action of the original work, "Inoue Ueya" casually threw the pass in his hand aside, and the black energy particles gushed out from the belt, and then wrapped his whole body, forming a dark purple armor. The blue flames then ignited and extinguished on his body and left blue spark patterns on the armor.

Nega Form, the form that appeared in the Den-O movie version, except that the outer armor part turned dark purple and there were more blue spark patterns on the body, the shape of this form is basically the same as the holy sword form that Hanako transformed into.

Although it looks like a product that uses the holy sword form as a base and changes color, this form is still very powerful. The negative form can use all the weapons of the basic form of Den-O, whether it is a long sword, fishing rod, axe or pistol, it is not a problem. The assembled weapons on the hand can be replaced with various weapons according to the situation.

"Celebrate!"

After the transformation, "Inoue Ueya" projected the Book of Shadows in his body onto his hand and shouted loudly: "The Kamen Rider who combines the power of urban legends and travels through the past and the future, this is the moment when the negative form of Kamen Rider Den-O is born!"

Chapter 188 My ultimate move, woo!

"How about it, I spent a lot of time thinking up this congratulatory message!"

Inoue Ueya was speechless. He really didn't expect that Kuin would become the one who celebrated without knowing it.

[Well, as long as you are happy...]

After celebrating the first transformation, Kuin finally remembered his mission and immediately pulled out the weapon components hanging on both sides of his waist.

"Yoshi, first the long sword!"

"Inoue Ueya" finished assembling the hilt, and suddenly remembered something, and actually picked up the blade part and threw it towards the red ghost.

The crazy red ghost focused all his attention on destroying the buildings that were in the way, and did not pay attention to Inoue Ueya's actions. Then a sound of breaking through the air was heard, and the thrown blade brushed across the red ghost's cheek at a speed that could not be seen by the naked eye. Different from the holy spear form, the pink and purple lightning suddenly appeared and pulled the blade in the air back to the hilt in Inoue Ueya's hand. The hilt and the blade were perfectly connected, turning into an assembled long sword with a blue spark pattern and a purple sword body.

The red ghost felt a trace of pain on his face. Stimulated, it became more violent than before. While roaring at the two people, it hit the buildings on both sides of the alley hard. Gradually, it seemed that it could not withstand the crazy attack of the red ghost, and obvious cracks began to appear on the buildings.

Iwanaga Kotoko, who was standing behind Inoue Ueya and observing the actions of the red demon, frowned unconsciously. She did see that the red demon's face was cut by the sword thrown by Inoue Ueya, but the wound did not flow out blood, but an unknown liquid as black as ink.

As Iwanaga Kotoko said before, the red demon is a humanoid monster that is not much different from humans except for its appearance and strong physique. For example, the blood of Nura and Yuki Onna is also bright red.

As she thought, the situation of the red demon in front of her is very wrong.

"Is it cursed after encountering something strange? Or..."

"Oh oh oh! It really worked. It's just like what the story shows. This weapon seems to have many interesting uses!"

[Don't be distracted, stop the destructive behavior of the red demon quickly! 】

"Inoue Ueya" nodded, then picked up the long sword in his hand and ran straight towards the red ghost outside the alley, "Watch it, my ultimate move, super invincible and strongest slash!"

As the voice fell, the dark energy gradually condensed on the sword body, and an inexplicably powerful aura emanated from the long sword in his hand.

Inoue Ueya could even vaguely hear a faint wail from the assembled long sword. Although the name was a bit unclear, it seemed that Kuin's ultimate move seemed to be extraordinary. The scene in front of him reminded him of Yasha Yuki's light cannon, and the building that was instantly evaporated by half of its volume. At that time, he was really scared by this. Fortunately, it was only an abandoned building that was hit.

Speaking of which, although this is a relatively remote place, there are no abandoned places nearby...

Hmm?

At this time, Inoue Ueya suddenly realized a very important problem.

[Show mercy, pay attention to controlling the strength! 】

"Ah!"

However, this time things did not develop in the bad direction that Inoue Ueya imagined. He suddenly stepped on something while running towards the red demon, and lost his balance and fell in front of the red demon. The long sword that was ready to be used also flew out of his hand and stabbed directly into the red demon's left foot.

The dark energy began to spread out from the long sword, and the black runes like dense tadpoles quickly spread to all parts of its body, and the breath of an instant covered its entire body.

Chigui continued to wave the mace in his hand, as if he didn't notice anything strange about his body. However, after less than a few seconds, his arm was completely covered with runes without even realizing it. The mace fell to the ground, seemingly affected by the runes. Its hands were no longer able to hold onto its weapon, and then its feet began to be affected by the runes. With a "bang", it also "Ueya Inoue" fell to the ground like that, unable to move.

At this time, it did not forget to stare at Ueya Inoue and the two of them, and let out a low roar from its mouth. However, until the runes spread to its mouth and head, it was like a beast bound by chains, and the sound Stopped abruptly.

The impression this move gave Inoue Ueya was that it was very scary. It was different from Hachishako's light cannon. Look at the red ghost now. Because it was covered with runes, he couldn't even see its original appearance clearly.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.Disgrace, this is the biggest shame in my life!"

After all, Ku Yin does not have a certain level of combat experience like other girls. This is the first time that she has officially possessed Ueya Inoue. It seems that she has not yet adapted to using this body to act, so she fell down directly. .

Despite her handsome appearance and embarrassing performance, even Ku Yin, who had a somewhat out-of-touch personality, still felt an inexplicable sense of shame in her heart.

This is the most embarrassing thing in Ku Yin's life. Even when people mistakenly thought she was a witch, they basically did not dare to provoke her because they were afraid of being cursed. They did not expect that she was not a witch. At that time, something like this happened.

"Wow, it turns out that because I have been living a peaceful life recently, I have started to become lax!"

[Everyone makes mistakes sometimes, so don’t pay too much attention to it. There aren’t many people present anyway...]

Inoue Ue also tried to comfort Ku Yin with words, but he lacked emotional intelligence but didn't know one thing. Comforting the other person at this time would often make the situation more embarrassing.

"Ueya Inoue" who was lying on the ground suddenly laughed, looked up at the fallen red ghost in front of him, and said in a self-deprecating voice: "It's all because of you that my beautiful memories of my first transformation turned into black history! "

Although Kotoko Iwanaga, who was standing behind her, wanted to say that she actually saw the pass that caused Ku Yin to fall, which she threw on the ground after her transformation, she hesitated for a while and ultimately did not tell the truth.

I saw "Ueya Inoue" picking up the black pass that appeared beside him at some point, standing up and scanning it on his belt.

【Full Charge】

Because the weapon had been thrown out, "Ueya Inoue" projected the Book of Shadows again, and pink-purple lightning began to wrap around the book in his hand under deliberate control. "Although Inoue does not have any spiritual power in his body, but The energy provided by transformation and "Full Charge" is still enough for me to cast some spells! "

After the words fell, "Inoue Ueya" began to murmur some difficult and difficult spells in a low voice. The dark runes covering the red ghost seemed to be stimulated by something and began to emit blue flames, which will be unable to move. The red ghost devoured them all.

"Huh, there's only one reason for your defeat, and that's because you pissed me off!"

Chapter 189 The sword is coming!

The red ghost was swallowed up by the blue sea of ​​fire without any resistance or even a scream.

"Ueya Inoue" did not dare to relax easily because of the lesson he had just learned. He looked at the motionless red ghost in the sea of ​​​​fire in front of him, and after coming to the conclusion that it had been defeated by him, he shrugged and said immediately: " After all, this is the first battle, so it’s natural that the enemy is relatively weak..."

"Hmph, it's just a vulnerable monster. Isn't it a matter of minutes for Lord Kuyin to take action?"

"Ueya Inoue" looked back at Kotoko Iwanaga, made a victory gesture, and said such words in a matter-of-fact tone, as if he had completely forgotten the embarrassing performance just now.

However, Iwanaga Kotoko subconsciously widened her eyes with a surprised expression at this time, because she saw Akuki's body begin to melt. It felt like paint meeting high temperatures, and then a black shadow emerged from Akuki's body. Come out and stand up in the blue sea of ​​fire.

"Be careful, that guy hasn't fallen down yet!"

"What?"

"Ueya Inoue" didn't even have time to react. An impact force came from behind, and then he was blown away to the side of Kotoko Iwanaga like a kite that was out of line.

"What's wrong? You're not injured, are you?" Kotoko Iwanaga asked worriedly.

As "Ueya Inoue" was shot away, what caught Kotoko Iwanaga's eyes was a black clay figurine with no facial features. The murderer who attacked "Ueya Inoue" was a monster whose identity was unknown. It had a body shape similar to that of an ordinary person and had no body shape. Due to the limitations of the red ghost's huge body, he could easily walk in from the alley.

"Well, it hurts..."

"Ueya Inoue" who was knocked away was seen screaming and standing up holding his waist. Although he was attacked by a sneak attack due to his temporary relaxation, he did not seem to be seriously injured.

"Strange, isn't that guy a red ghost? Why did he suddenly become like this?"

"Ueya Inoue" felt a little confused about the situation in front of him.

When she first accepted the commission, Iwanaga Kotoko had heard about this "red ghost" from the monsters living nearby. Regardless of whether it is a monster or a human, as long as the opponent is a living creature, it will attack. If it is a female human, If you do, you will be abducted by it and disappear. It will wander in the remote streets nearby at night, and disappear into black smoke in the morning...

Different from the normal action pattern and body shape of the red ghost, coupled with the situation of the "red ghost" coming back from the dead in front of her, Kotoko Iwanaga finally came to a conclusion at this time.

Iwanaga Kotoko secretly nodded and responded: "It seems that the situation is not as simple as imagined. I have finally found the answer to something I have always felt was wrong. This guy is not a red ghost at all, but an unknown and weird person covered in a layer of disguise... "

Before he finished speaking, the black clay figurine rushed over, accompanied by a strong wind, and swung his clenched fist towards Kotoko Iwanaga in front of him.

The situation at hand was critical, and "Ueya Inoue" had no time to say anything. He stood in front of Kotoko Iwanaga and hurriedly blocked the attack of the black clay figurine.

A huge force came from the fist of the black clay figurine, and even the transformed "Ueya Inoue" couldn't help but staggered back several steps.

"Ugh, where's the promised novice protection period? Is this discriminating against the theatrical version?"

Although there is a reason why Ku Yin is not good at close combat, there is no doubt about the strength of the opponent.

"Pay attention to safety! Although the "disguise" has been destroyed, this "body" still seems to have the power to rival the ghost clan! "Iwanaga Kotoko couldn't help but frowned.

Just like the original red ghost, the clay figure seems to have no ability to communicate with others. It is just a monster that attacks living creatures through instinct. With the information that the monster has witnessed it abducting human women, this guy is like a puppet created by someone. The same, acting according to certain rules.

"Damn it, then I have to be a little more serious!"

I saw "Ueya Inoue" raising his left hand, shouting towards the assembled sword thrown far away: "Here comes the sword!"

After the words fell, the assembled long sword was grabbed by an invisible hand and flew towards "Ueya Inoue" from a distance.

Bang!

The clay figurine standing in front was knocked off half of its body by the assembled long sword behind it. Although the strength displayed by the clay figurine was pretty good, in terms of physical strength, it was still a clay figurine after all. Judging from the current situation, it After all, it still couldn't withstand the relatively strong impact.

"Hey, I didn't expect it! This is Lord Kuyin's new spell "Invisible Hand". The inspiration comes from the show I'm following recently. This is a spell that can generate invisible hands, such as lying down. When you want to get the snacks on the table while you are on the sofa, you don’t have to get up as long as you have this spell! "

[You should sit up and get the snacks yourself. Mr. Inoue’s impression of this move is starting to become strange! 】

Although Ku Yin's combat experience is insufficient and his reaction ability is far behind Hanako and the others who have been involved in fighting for a long time, he is definitely the strongest person in the Inoue family in terms of magic.

Well, she has also written the Book of Shadows, which records a large number of forbidden black magic spells, including spells involving time and space. There is no doubt that she is a unique genius in spells.

However, the clay man who lost half of his body did not stop moving because of this. The black mud that fell to the ground seemed to be alive, slowly crawling towards the clay man to repair the damaged body.

"Oh, will your body recover?"

"Ueya Inoue" looked at the clay figurine in front of him with interest. He stepped forward and smashed the remaining half of the clay figurine's body. However, the black mud scattered on the ground did not seem to be affected by the destruction of the body but tried to rebuild it again. Together, it is estimated that recovery will be a matter of time.

"Well, it's weird that the vitality is unexpectedly strong..." Iwanaga Kotoko pondered.

"Kuyin-chan, with your magic skills, can you analyze the situation of this clay figurine? For example, could it be a puppet or something like that?"

It is difficult to eliminate, has no ability to think, and attacks and abducts female humans. This is inherently contradictory behavior. The black mud in front of you seems to have a regular pattern of action. The possibility that it is a puppet created by someone has once again increased.

"It's not difficult. The weirdness and monsters you often mention all have that kind of energy called "fear", right? If this guy is a puppet, what makes it work should be the "fear" of the mastermind behind the scenes..."

"Ueya Inoue" squatted down, grabbed a small handful of black mud from the ground, and recited the spell again.

Chapter 190 Damn Hanako!

While Inoue Ueya and others were dealing with Akari, two men in kimonos were talking in a dilapidated mansion in Chiba.

"What do you think about the lost "Demon King's Gavel" and the death of Yujizo? Mirror Studio. "

"Oh, this is really a pity."

Yanagita looked at the brown-skinned man who was holding a pen in his hand and looking at a piece of white paper, deep in thought, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

As promised last time, Yanagida brought another Yamamoto monster to Chiba in order to find the whereabouts of the lost "Demon King's Gavel".

"What's wrong, can't you write?" Yanagita asked.

"..."

The brown-skinned man did not respond, but silently looked at the white paper in front of him. His name was Kagsai, and his true identity was "Hands of Yamamoto." He was a leader of the Hyakumonogatari group and had the ability to create monsters in the paintings. Responsible for the creation of weird and urban legends circulated by the Hyakumonogatari Group.

"...You really still have no inspiration?"

Jingzhai is very particular about the quality of his works. He hates to create failed works. Firstly, he feels irresponsible for the children he creates. Secondly, as a painter, he pursues the work. He does not intend to Treat your own work casually.

As a painter, he has a small hobby, which is to draw monsters on the backs of women. By doing so, he can transform the female body into a powerful monster. Every time he watches the other party being transformed into a girl with desperate wailing. Youkai, new inspirations will constantly pop up in his mind, including "Hanako" from the past.

"To be honest, I feel that since I painted "Hanako", I will never be able to paint the kind of work that satisfies me. "

For Jing Zhai, Hanako is the most perfect masterpiece in his life. He has his own ideas and acts according to his own will. The domineering little girl buried deep in his memory will always be a person in his heart. An irreplaceable existence.

However, for other people in the Hyakumonogatari group, their thoughts are different.

When Kagsai mentioned Hanako, Yanagita snorted and said, "Perfect? ​​In my opinion, 'Hanako' is the most failed and meaningless work you have ever painted!" "

Yanagita has not forgotten that when Hanako defected, she killed most of the important cadres in the Hyakumonogatari team. This is not the point. The problem is "Hyakki Teapot"!

"Hyakki Teapot" was used by Gorozaemon Yamamoto, who had not yet become a youkai, to collect the "fear" in humans and create monsters. It was even used when he was chased by Nura Liban. So there is a way to choose not to be human without the power of that teapot.

In the hundreds of years after Yamamoto Gorozaemon was eliminated, the Hyakumonogatari Group, organized by the clones transformed from Yamamoto's organs, also continued to secretly create new weirdness and new urban legends, using their existence to create new stories. Chakama collects "fear", and the real purpose is to use Chakama's power to resurrect the dead Yamamoto Gorozaemon!

The monsters created by Kagsai will have a connection with the teapot when they are born, with the purpose of absorbing the "fear" collected from them.

At the beginning, the urban legend of Hanako was widely circulated. "Hanako" can be said to be an existence that no one knew about. "Fear" increased at an incredible speed. Her existence even brought a large amount of "fear" to Chakama. The Hyakumonogatari group almost He regarded her as the hope that he could successfully resurrect Yamamoto, at least initially.

As the popularity of "Hanako" increases, her "fear" has unknowingly surpassed all the monsters in the group, including her creator Kagsai. Hanako's defection has caused more than just killings. One of the few Yamamoto youkai, she even took the initiative to cut off the connection between the teapot and her, and directly destroyed the "fear" collected in the teapot for hundreds of years.
