Pov change.
"How many is that now "Aaron said as he looked at the pile of bodies of demons on the floor vanishing as time went by.
"That would be 1000, Nii-San" Rui's voice was heard saying in Aaron's earpiece.
Aaron sighed a bit as he went toward a nearby rock and proceeded to rest slightly.
He didn't know how long he had been at it slaying Gifterian and Gifu juniors left and right for what felt like 2 hours.
It was just nonstop killing without an end in sight.
Aaron picked up a sound which caused the teenage boy to look up where he heard the sound.
"Neat there are more of them," Aaron said dryly as he noticed the nearly 300 soldiers approaching him.
This was just a bit too much, even by his standards, in his own humble opinion he frankly didn't want to think about what purpose Gifu might have with summoning so many fucking demons.
He could tell by looking at them, that not all of them were people's inner demon-given form, some of them looked like freshly turned victims.
"Welp I did say I had good stamina," He said as he stood up and looked at all the Gifu juniors along with all the Gifterian currently looking at him.
"Nii-San, there is a backup...there are about 1000 coming toward your location...."Rui's voice was heard saying in his mind.
"He wants to keep me busy but for what? "Aaron said with a thoughtful look on his face, what possible reason could Gifu have for sending so much cannon fodder at him?
Pov change weekend base.
The alarm inside the base was ringing incredibly loudly, soldiers were seen going from place to place carrying injured soldiers to the medics.
The medics themself looked to be incredibly overwhelmed.
The scent of blood was heavy in the air, the same metallic scent that blood had was all around them.
The medical area was overcrowded with wounded soldiers needing immediate attention due to the injury.
Karizaki was seen looking at everything with a grim look on his face, this was incredibly bad.
Not one day after they had announced to offer help to anyone who was against Gifu methods did this happen.
Their base was being attacked by nearly 6 thousand Gifterian, there were just so many of them with all of them had the bare minimum possessing the strength of a Kamen rider.
Their guns were ineffective against those creatures, and he knew for a fact that Sakura wouldn't be able to hold them off for long.
Even if Hana and Hikaru were there as support, they would eventually get overwhelmed though he had to thank them as due to them, they could breathe, and fewer injured people were in need of help.
He did not understand it was as if it was hell on earth, Gifu might seem to have spread all over Japan and now everyone in Japan was suffering because of him.
"Why did I shake the devil's hand" Karizaki said to himself feeling quite frustrated at himself for his past actions.
The situation had gone to shit and no matter how he flipped it this was bad.... very, very bad.
Aaron stood amidst the desolate remains of the city, from the look of it, this city was deserted. The air around him was thick with the scent of decay and the echoes of distant battles. Nearly 300 Gifterian soldiers advanced toward him, their monstrous forms a stark contrast to the ruined urban landscape.
"Come get pounding pussy, finna stretch y'all out, "Aaron said as the Gifterian rushed toward him.
As the first wave of Gifterian charged, Aaron sprinted toward a nearby crumbling building.
He didn't know why the building was crumbling but under careful inspection, he noticed a chunk of it was missing.
With a swift motion, he leaped onto a low-hanging beam, using his momentum to swing himself up to a higher vantage point. From his elevated position, he spotted a cluster of Gifterian converging below.
"No need to rush to find me, just wait your turn, "Aaron said dryly as he saw all the Gifterian rushing toward him.
With a calculated grin, Aaron kicked loose a rusted air conditioning unit. The heavy metal box plummeted down, crushing several Gifterian beneath its weight. The impact sent debris flying, creating a temporary barrier that slowed the advance of the others."That's one way to clear a path," Aaron muttered, jumping down from the beam.
He landed in the middle of a group of Gifterian, his body moving with the precision of a seasoned warrior. With a quick motion, he grabbed a discarded metal pipe from the ground and swung it in a wide arc. The improvised weapon connected with several Gifterian, sending them sprawling. Spotting a pile of old, rotting wooden pallets nearby, Aaron kicked them over, creating a makeshift barricade. The Gifterian struggled to climb over the unstable heap, giving Aaron a moment to catch his breath and assess his surroundings.
"They are quite stupid actually, "He said to himself as his eyes scanned his surroundings once again.
His eyes fell on a rusted fire escape ladder hanging precariously from a nearby building. With a determined run, he dashed toward it, scaling the ladder in seconds. At the top, he found himself on a narrow rooftop overlooking a large gathering of Gifterian below. Aaron spotted an old, abandoned car teetering on the edge of the rooftop. With a powerful kick, he sent the vehicle crashing down, the explosion of metal and glass scattering the Gifterian. The force of the impact created a shockwave that knocked many of them off their feet.
Using the chaos to his advantage, Aaron leaped down from the rooftop, landing in the midst of the disoriented Gifterian. He grabbed a broken street sign and wielded it like a spear, thrusting it through the chest of one demon and using the momentum to swing it into another. Aaron's eyes caught sight of an abandoned construction site nearby. He dashed toward it, his mind already formulating a plan. The Gifterian followed, their growls echoing through the empty streets.
At the construction site, Aaron quickly assessed the scene. He spotted a stack of concrete pipes and a rusted crane still standing. With a burst of speed, he climbed into the crane's control cabin, manipulating the levers to swing the massive hook into the advancing Gifterian. The heavy metal hook smashed through their ranks, creating a deadly pendulum that decimated their numbers.
As the Gifterian regrouped, Aaron jumped down from the crane and ran toward a pile of loose rubble. He grabbed a handful of rocks and hurled them at a weakened section of a nearby building. The structure groaned and collapsed, burying several Gifterian under a mountain of debris.
Breathing heavily but undeterred, Aaron continued his assault. He spotted a fire hydrant and, with a powerful kick, broke it open. Water sprayed out, creating a slippery barrier that slowed the Gifterian's advance. Taking advantage of the confusion, Aaron used a nearby length of chain to trip and entangle his enemies, further thinning their ranks.
"And now time for the finally...the orgasm, "Aaron said with a bright smile on his face as from his body a yellow aura was seen sinking into the water.
A wide grin appeared on Aaron's face as he watched all the creatures scream as they felt their flesh being purified.
This was quite a fun workout...His eyes landed on the human who seemed to have regained their body, they seemed dazed.
Good on them.
Before he could do anything, a bunch of liquid flew toward his face covering his body from head to toe.
"Note to self... They can get very wet "Aaron said with a thoughtful look as he hoped to himself that the liquid on his body was just water and not what he thought it was.
{Nii-San...3000 is converging on the weekend base} Rui's voice was heard saying in his mind.
"Aw come on, "Aaron said sounding quite disappointed.
"On a side note...how is Ikki doing "Aaron said as he stood back and got ready to dash like his life depended on it.
"Ikki-San is currently healing, his body seemed to have been completely ravaged, but he will be back in about 6 minutes," Rui said through his earpiece this time.
"And he probably will go back to training again "Aaron added to which he could almost feel Rui nod her head even if he was nowhere near her.
"He is determined to save his little brother, "Aaron said as he jumped left than right before in an instant going from 0 to full speed, dashing toward the weekend base.
He didn't need to get there himself, he just needed to stop the reinforcement from reaching their base.
That was his job.
As Aaron sprinted through the desolate streets, the streets were desolate for one simple reason...Gifu decided to go hunting.
As he ran, he heard a faint cry for help. He skidded to a stop and saw a small child, no older than three, standing in the middle of the chaos, crying.
"Don't you dare" Yami's voice was heard saying.
"....."
"He is none of your business, let him die while you at it...." Yami said coldly as Aaron started walking toward the child.
"Fuck them, kids"
Aaron reached out to the child before grabbing it tightly, welp now that was another person he had to protect, Aaron dashed into an abandoned building. The Gifterian followed, their growls echoing through the empty halls. Aaron weaved through the corridors, his mind racing to find a safe spot for the child. He reached the twelfth floor and found a room with a broken window.
"Your mother is going to hate me for this" Aaron whispered to the child....he could do it, but it would be risky, once thrown he would have 7.5, seconds to catch the kid before welp, and the kid splat on the floor.
As soon as the Gifterian broke through the door, Aaron tossed the baby up outside of the building...this was an experience the child would never forget, for the rest of its life.
He fought them off with swift, brutal efficiency, using every object within reach as a weapon. A piece of rebar became a spear, a broken chair leg a club. He moved with lethal grace, dispatching the demons one by one.
{5.5 seconds elapsed}
After he was done taking care of them using the aura he possessed, Aaron propelled himself off the building, using what seemed to be aura constructs to reach the child in time.
Managing to grab the child, he pulled the child up close to him as he turned his body around and a few seconds later...a loud thud was heard.
"My organs," Aaron said as he felt some pain from this, for christ's sake he felt a 2 story building, it hurt him a bit.
Though considering his body can take force like a kamen rider punch when those fuckers are known for dealing shit tone of damage with their punch.
Him surviving this fall was granted.
"What do you want to be that the child's mother probably going to call you a monster," Yami said with a smile.
"Nope in the mood for what if right now," Keitaro said as he forced himself up.
Aaron didn't have time to rest. More Gifterian were scaling the building, their snarls growing louder. He kicked open a nearby door and dashed inside, the child still clutched in his arms. He navigated the tight hallways, his mind constantly calculating the fastest route.
He reached the stairwell and vaulted over the railing, landing on the floor below. The child whimpered, but Aaron's calm, reassuring words kept her quiet. He burst through another door and found himself in a large, open room filled with abandoned office furniture.
Aaron set the child down behind a desk. "Stay here and keep quiet, okay?" The child nodded, her eyes wide with fear. Aaron turned to face the incoming horde, his eyes narrowing.
Using the environment to his advantage, Aaron toppled filing cabinets and desks, creating barriers and obstacles. He used a broken computer monitor as a makeshift shield, bashing it into a Gifterian's head. He swung a metal chair leg like a club, its impact resonating with a satisfying crunch.
One particularly large Gifterian charged at him, but Aaron sidestepped, grabbing a frayed electrical wire. He wrapped it around the demon's neck and pulled, electrocuting it until it fell lifeless. The remaining Gifterian hesitated, giving Aaron the opening he needed.
He made sure to close the child's eyes, as from his watch what seemed to be a polearm was made.
{Polearm has been chosen}
Was the message that read across his watch, welp he didnt have his kamen rider gear yet but he was still from the future so he guessed those techs would do for now.
With the polearm already being imbued with the energy he was given, he needed to find a better name than celestial energy, that shit sounded corny as fuck.
"It's going to be okay," Aaron said softly, his voice steady and calm despite the turmoil around them. "But I need you to do something very important for me, okay?"
The child nodded, tears streaming down their cheeks.
"I need you to close your eyes, really tight. Don't open them until I tell you it's safe. Can you do that for me?"
The child hesitated but then nodded again, squeezing their eyes shut.
Aaron stood up, turning to face the horde of Gifterians converging on their location. His grip tightened on his weapon, a beautifully ornate glaive with star motifs, its blade gleaming in the dim light. He took a deep breath, letting the energy flow through him, his aura flaring up as he prepared for the onslaught.
With a swift, fluid motion, Aaron leaped into action. The first wave of monsters charged at him, but he was ready. He swung the glaive in a wide arc, its blade slicing through the air with a deadly whisper. The first line of Gifterians fell, their bodies dissolving into mist before they could even hit the ground.
He continued to move with precision and grace, using the environment to his advantage. He kicked a loose piece of rubble, sending it crashing into a group of monsters, buying him a few precious seconds.
Using his wonderful weapon he started doing what he was good at...killing.
Blood, guts...and a lot of Gifterian were slain, even though he knew that inside those Gifterian they were actual living humans, breathing and sentient creatures.
He had a choice to make, it was either he tried to save them and let them kill the child because he can't do two things at the same time...
Or he saves the only human in the area with an actual future, someone whose mind wasn't fucked by Gifu yet and could still go back to society, unlike those Gifterians.
The child was the priority...he did not have the energy to spend on them, his resources were running dry so he couldn't purify them, all he could do was put them out of their misery.
He looked at his shirt and noticed some blood on it....hm, he would have to clean that out later.
"I love you so much, make me so proud of you, 3000 human souls yearning to be saved, crushed just because of one child...this is perfect" Yami's voice was heard saying giggling in his mind.
"Now...kill the child" As those words left Yami's mouth, Aaron started walking toward the child covered in blood.
He reached out his hands to grab the child, but the child just started crying, crying as loud as it could.
As Aaron approached the child, the child cried further, and as if right on cue, a woman was seen rushing inside the room. She guarded the child with her body and seemed like she wanted him to get away.
She was weakly defending the child...that must be the kid's mom, so he could explain to her what had happened.
Her eyes, filled with fear and determination, quickly turned to rage as she saw Aaron, covered in blood and wielding a weapon.
"You monster!" she screamed, her voice shaking with fury and horror. "What did you do to my child? You... you murderer!"
Aaron held up his hands, trying to show he meant no harm. "Wait, please. I'm here to help—"
"Help?" she spat, her voice dripping with venom. "You're covered in blood! My child is terrified, and you're standing there with that... that weapon! You're a killer!"
Those words stung more than they should have, for fuck sake he just risked his life to save her fucking child, for heaven's sake if he had chosen to not do anything her child would have been getting devoured by at least 20 creatures at the same time and would be conscient throughout it all.
She was the one who forgot her child, so who was she to act like a protective mom now...Aaron calmed himself down and put on a more calm look.
"Please, you have to understand—" Aaron tried to explain, but the woman was beyond reason.
"You butchered those people!" she continued, her voice rising. "You're no hero. You're just another monster!"
Aaron's heart sank. He knew her rage was misplaced, fueled by fear and misunderstanding, but he really couldn't blame her. From her perspective, he was a blood-soaked figure standing in the midst of chaos, and her child was crying in terror. It was only natural she would see him as the villain.
"I promise you," Aaron said, his voice calm but firm, "I was protecting your child. Those creatures were going to kill—"
"I don't care!" she interrupted, tears streaming down her face. "You stay away from us! I won't let you hurt my baby!"
"Bwahahahahahah, absolute cinema....you own me 30$ bucks," Yami said laughing in Aaron's mind
Aaron took a step back, respecting her space. He could see the pain and fear in her eyes, the desperation of a mother trying to protect her child. He lowered his weapon, hoping it would show her he wasn't a threat.
"Listen to me," he said softly, "I know it looks bad. But those creatures weren't human anymore. They were going to kill your child, and I did what I had to do to keep them safe."
The woman glared at him, her body trembling. "Just... stay away," she said finally, her voice breaking.
Aaron nodded, stepping back further. "I won't come any closer," he assured her. "But please, you need to get out of here. There are more of them coming."
The woman looked around, realizing the danger they were still in. She gathered the child into her arms, holding them close. "Come on, sweetheart," she whispered to the child, "we need to go."
Meanwhile from a nearby window, what seemed to be a small creature was seen, its eyes resembling that of a camera as it looked on to Aaron.
This would be very useful info
A/N long chapter today.... also this chapter was meant to showcase, how even though he is currently the strongest rider in that universe....his movement is heavily monitored... he is in a chain, and any wrong move could be used as evidence against him, and considering he is a foreigner in a very xenophobic country...let just say it won't take much to...
