Chapter 31: Chapter 31: The Little Daredevil
"What are you called now?" Belle asked, looking at Mo Xuan with the eyes of a curious baby. At this time, she was already impolitely touching him. She couldn't tell what the material of the armor was, but it felt very high-quality. The parts not covered by armor had a leathery feel, but the defense was surprisingly amazing.
"Kamen Rider Ryuki," Mo Xuan said.
"What a cool name. It's hard to imagine it's formed by your power." Belle did not skimp on her praise. She looked for places on the knight's body that could be called a dragon. The Dragvisor on his left arm was one, there was also a dragon pattern mark on the top of his head, and finally, the dragon emblem on his belt. She touched them all.
"What's that supposed to mean? Am I that bad?" Mo Xuan said to Belle with dissatisfaction. His biggest secret was discovered. This felt like giving his first night to a rough man. He was very uncomfortable. He had originally thought that even if he were exposed, the object would preferably be Zhu Yuan.
Belle seemed to have remembered something. After leaving the screening room, she locked the shop door. When she came back, she was holding a hammer in one hand and a saw in the other.
"What are you doing?" Mo Xuan asked in alarm.
"Of course, I'm testing the defense of your suit. If it's not hard enough, how will you deal with Ethereals in the future?" Belle said, holding the hammer eagerly. She seemed to be impatient to try and see if she could leave a mark on Mo Xuan.
"No need. I'm very confident in the defense after transforming," Mo Xuan said, shaking his head repeatedly. Although the defense was considerable, didn't a hammer have penetration damage? He didn't want to be hammered a few times and break his no-damage record.
"It doesn't hurt to try. Think about it, besides us, no one else knows, right? Who else can test this for you?" Belle said, approaching Mo Xuan with a hammer and a saw with a grin.
Just as she was about to make a move, she suddenly felt a ringing in her ears. A piercing sound came. She subconsciously looked towards the mirror. At this time, a huge red dragon was clinging to the mirror's surface. The dragon's yellow eyes were staring at her. This feeling of being stared at by a predator made Belle's scalp tingle.
"Ah, hahaha, I was just kidding. How could I bear to hurt big brother Mo Xuan?" Belle now knew why the knight was called Ryuki (Dragon Knight). So his dragon was hiding here. Belle showed a polite smile, put both her hands behind her back, and said with a grin, showing a mouthful of white teeth.
"I feel like if you keep being so mischievous, you're definitely going to die," Mo Xuan complained helplessly. He had seen people who liked to court death, but he had never seen someone who liked to court death this much. If Phaethon didn't enter Hollows, he would have probably been gone long ago.
A moment later, Mo Xuan de-transformed and returned to his original form. Belle, looking at the transformation deck in his hand, had a bold idea: could she try it? But considering the evil dragon in the mirror, she obediently gave up courting death. And she felt that she and Mo Xuan were not familiar enough to borrow his power. This was something at least a married wife could request.
"You don't think this power is scary?" Mo Xuan picked up a teacup and asked the siblings in front of him. He felt that an ordinary person would be more or less afraid after seeing his power. This was much more terrifying than an Ethereal; it could run out of a Hollow.
"If you're scared of this, then what's the point of being Phaethon? Besides, you're not the only one with such a strange power. Aren't there also the Hollow Hunters?" Belle waved her hand and said nonchalantly. In her eyes, the Hollow Hunters were probably people like Mo Xuan, with extraordinary talents and abilities that ordinary people couldn't imagine. To put it directly, they were the protagonists of an era.
"That's true. Let's talk about how we can cooperate." A smile appeared on Mo Xuan's face. Now he felt that it wasn't so bad for the two siblings to know his secret.
"If you're willing, you can install Fairy's program in your Bangboo. Then if any accident happens in a Hollow, she can immediately support you, making your missions twice as effective, and from then on, your career will be smooth sailing. You'll become a CEO, marry a rich and beautiful woman, and reach the pinnacle of your life."
Belle said with a serious expression, but her words sounded like a pyramid scheme. However, as a heaven-sent cheat, Fairy should have this ability. Now, if the two siblings wanted to get rich, it would be a matter of minutes.
"It's a bit tempting. I'll consider it," Mo Xuan nodded. After thinking for a moment, he asked a new question.
"Does Fairy have any understanding of Hollow Zero?"
"Yes, I have the basic data here. Besides being huge and having a soaring danger level, there is no significant difference from other Hollows." Fairy answered Mo Xuan's question in a gentle voice. She had been in a listening state all this time and would give her opinion even without her master's command. It could be said that she and the Bangboos were already AIs from two different worlds.
"Why do you ask that?" Belle asked with confusion.
"We'll probably have to go to Hollow Zero for an extermination operation later. There are too many Ethereals in there, and that's when this power is needed."
"How should I put it, big brother Mo Xuan is really the type to sacrifice himself for others. Next time, if you're not on the list of Hollow Hunters, I won't watch." Belle said from the bottom of her heart. Although she and Mo Xuan were always hurting each other, she also admired his character. Just as Wise said, he was indeed a noble person.
"It's just an empty name. I didn't transform into a Rider to become a hero."
Mo Xuan said with a smile. He was just fulfilling the obligation that came with this power. This was also an important belief of his. As long as he always remembered it, he would not get lost in the immense power.
Mo Xuan soon took his leave from the video store. For Belle and Wise, knowing his secret didn't change anything. They were not bad people. Even if they were, they couldn't possibly threaten Mo Xuan to do anything bad. The only thing they could ask him to do was to help, for example, when they encountered something they couldn't handle, they would ask him to see if he could help.
Mo Xuan soon returned to his own home. He found Stand-boo and talked to it about his identity being exposed. This Bangboo had a considerable level of intelligence and could understand what Mo Xuan was saying. Its expression gradually became angry.
"ORA! ORA! ORA!"
Stand-boo hammered the punching bag in the gym. Mo Xuan was speechless. This was his substitute, right? Why wasn't he angry, but it was so furious? This personality was completely different from his own. He didn't know who had raised it.
"Alright, don't be angry. I'll take you to Fairy's place later to install some software. It will be an upgrade for you."
Mo Xuan patted Stand-boo's head and said. Although this little thing was a bit hot-tempered, it was still very obedient to him. After all, it was originally going to be discarded. It was he who gave it a new life.
"ORA!"
Stand-boo nodded in response to Mo Xuan. Mo Xuan then prepared some things for tomorrow's training, such as wound medicine. The memory of being kicked into the wall by Zhu Yuan was still fresh. He didn't know if the female officer would hold back tomorrow.
