"Kabuto?"
Chen Ran looked around.
But he found no trace of Tendō.
Nor was there any sign of him entering Clock Up.
It was clear that Tendō was not here at the moment.
And he hadn't encountered him in the past few days?
The last time he met Tendō was at Ginza.
This cargo port was rather secluded.
Apart from the workers transporting goods and those belonging to the port itself, few people generally came here.
There were, however, Heterodynes appearing here.
But in this world, Heterodyne appearances were normal.
To exaggerate a little.
In this world where Heterodynes lurked in human society and wreaked havoc.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Heterodynes appeared every moment!
Even Tendō wouldn't coincidentally come here at this time.
Speaking of which.
Aside from saving Arisugawa at the beginning, a few days ago Chen Ran had also accidentally encountered Korami being attacked by a Heterodyne. He had intervened when passing by and saved her.
Tendō was also absent at that time.
"However... it doesn't seem to be entirely so," Chen Ran murmured to himself.
Tendō's absence in this timeline did not mean his absence at other times.
"To act according to heaven, to protect my sister!"
This was the truth Tendō had adhered to from beginning to end.
Even in the timeline of the movie 'God Speed Love,' he was willing to sacrifice his life to reverse seven years in order to save his sister!
For his sister, what was the harm in sacrificing his own life?
Thus, Chen Ran had a rough idea of what the reason was.
"As expected, getting involved with time-based Kamen Riders is troublesome."

┓(´∀`)┏
Tendō Sōji had two sisters in his life.
One was a biological sister, and the other was a foster sister.
A normal Kabuto was nothing.
But once he obtained the Insect Zecter beyond its limits, Kabuto gained another power.
Hyper Clock Up!
This was a divine technique capable of reversing time!
You never knew how many Hyper Kabutos were watching you from around Tendō's sister.
It seemed to be an acknowledgment from Tendō.
Of course.
The main reason might also be that Chen Ran had not shown any covetousness towards Tendō's sister, otherwise...
He took out the cards from the Kabuto series.
The attack ride card for Kamen Rider Decade.
The transformation and finishing move cards for Kabuto's masked form.
"As expected, there's no beyond Kabuto."
Chen Ran's tone carried a hint of regret.
If he could directly wield the ultimate forms of the corresponding Riders, then Decade's God Master would truly be a summoner.
Unfortunately, as things stood, that was indeed the case.
Perhaps the time was not yet right?
After all, Decade was also a Rider with infinite possibilities.
And Chen Ran wasn't too concerned about this.
Not to mention that Kamen Riders were somewhat idealistic.
He himself was not purely a Kamen Rider.
He was a fortunate individual blessed by the system.
For him.
Infinite evolution was not just an empty phrase.
After examining all the cards he currently possessed, Chen Ran carefully put them back into the card pack.
He walked slowly along the dock, the gentle breeze rippling the surface of the sea.
It gave a refreshing feeling.
Basking in the sea breeze.
Chen Ran stretched leisurely.
He did not encounter any more Heterodyne troubles.
The system's countdown reached zero.
It was time to return.
Chen Ran silently chanted "Return."
A magnificent spatial vortex suddenly appeared.
Chen Ran stepped directly into it.
Entering the passage that connected countless worlds.
He looked forward to his future adventures even more.
...
Still the park.
In a secluded, deserted spot, Chen Ran's figure quietly appeared.
Unlike Tsukasa Kadoya, who also embarked on travels.
He was not rejected by other worlds.
And he had his own world.
"I'm back..."
A smile appeared on Chen Ran's face.
He raised his right hand.
A butterfly leisurely landed on his fingertip, then quietly flew away.
He was like a traveler returning home.
The colorful experiences and journeys in the Rider worlds had indeed added a lot of color to his otherwise peaceful life.
But in this world, which was currently in the 'Rider Era,' the sense of belonging that originated from within.
Was something that other worlds did not possess.
"System, open the status panel."
Chen Ran found a place to sit down.
He planned to fully organize his gains from the Kabuto world before going home.
And checking the status panel.
Was the simplest method.
Regarding his gains.
Chen Ran felt very good about himself.
He had successively obtained Rider cards from the Zect series, and his own evolution progress and growth rate were extremely considerable.
Even without successfully entering the second stage, the gains from this trip were more than satisfactory!
Thinking this, the familiar screen of the system's personal panel had already appeared before his eyes...
