Chapter 27: Do or Die!

The arena was a whirlwind of chaos, the air thick with tension and the scent of smoke and dust. Kieth's heart raced as he sprinted toward the edge, the beeping of the sentry gun echoing in his ears like a countdown to his salvation.

He could feel Kurakabe's dark energy swirling behind him, a palpable threat that urged him to move faster. But as he was turning his head, he saw a kid under a hiding table, as he muttered, "Fuck!!!" He dashed back to save the kid while Kurakabe was running towards him. Then he uses his Faiz transformation, which is a one-use-only skill, and presses the rider belt code 558.

As the mechanical voice reverberated, Mode accepted. Faiz overdrive commencing! Go ahead!"The mechanical voice said as his mask rider form transformed into an all-black and silver form, and his movements became unseen to the naked eye as everything came to a stop while he ran faster than time.

System notification!

Notice! User is using Faiz's special skill "overdrive."

You can now stop time and still move in 15 seconds. Cool down for 1 hour.

By using this skill, your rider belt durability will be used as collateral for the time being, as the user has not yet met the requirements to transform yet. Durability use is 10% per skill use.

Countdown commencing!

"Just a little longer!" Kieth muttered, glancing back to see the demon general charging toward him, shadows coiling around his fists like serpents ready to strike. The crowd's cheers faded into a distant roar and panic as they ran for their lives, their voices a mere backdrop to the impending clash.

14

"Damn it."

Keith's mind raced as he calculated his next move. The kid under the table was frozen in fear, eyes wide and trembling. Kieth couldn't let Kurakabe reach him. He had to act fast.

13

With a surge of adrenaline, Kieth lunged forward, his black and silver form a blur as he reached the table. He scooped the child up effortlessly, cradling him against his chest. The boy's small hands gripped Kieth's armor, his face buried in the fabric, seeking safety.

12

"Hold on tight!" Kieth shouted, his voice barely breaking through the chaos. He could feel the weight of the world on his shoulders, but he had no time to dwell on it. He had to get them both out of here.

11

As he turned to sprint back toward the arena's exit, he could see Kurakabe's shadow stretching ominously behind him, the demon general's eyes burning with fury. Kieth's heart pounded in sync with the countdown, each second a reminder of the danger closing in.

10

As he runs fast, all of a sudden a system notification alert pops up.

System notification alert!

Warning, warning, warning!

The enemy is forcing th time stop skill(overdrive) to move again.

Warning, warning, warning!

Time has been reduced.

As he turned his head, he saw Kurakabe already behind him. And slash him with a giant axe. But Kieth is faster than him, so he ducks and activates his attack skill. 521 Accepted! Rider kick is ready!" The mechanical voice said, and Kieth did a roundhouse kick that directly hit Kurakabe's body, sending him a few feet.

System notification!

The enemy suffered a critical hit! - 10,500

Enemy remaining health: 260,500.

"Fuck, that's way too high a health count!"

Keith's mind raced as he processed the damage he had just dealt. The numbers flashed in his mind like a warning sign, but there was no time to dwell on it. Kurakabe was already recovering, his eyes narrowing as he glared at Kieth with a mix of rage and disbelief.

"You're faster than I expected, little insect," Kurakabe growled, his voice a low rumble that sent chills down Kieth's spine. The demon general's massive form shifted, shadows swirling around him like a storm. "But speed alone won't save you! as Kurakabe uses his unique skill. "Now let's see who's faster than the two of us!" As he activates his skill, "blink, he teleports behind Kieth and pinches him up to the sky. But before the punch landed, he successfully and gently threw the little girl to the ground so she wouldn't get caught by the bone-crushing punch. As Kieth braced himself for impact as the punch connected, he shielded himself with his two arms and hoped this punch wouldn't kill him. And shouted, "Summon Medkit level 3!" As his body flung into the sky, his world spinning, pain all over his body.

System notification!

You suffered 6000 points!

Your mask raiders transformation durability has been reduced to 30%.

Warning, warning, warning!!

User's life point is at a critical point!

User needs to bail! I mean now!

Warning, warning, warning!!

User's life point is at a critical point!

User needs to bail! I mean now!

Keith's mind raced as he plummeted, the ground rushing up to meet him. He could feel the remnants of Kurakabe's punch reverberating through his body, a painful reminder of the demon general's overwhelming power. But he had no time to dwell on the pain; he had to act fast.

"Medkit, activate!" he gasped, the words barely escaping his lips as he felt the familiar warmth of the healing energy enveloping him. The system notification chimed in his mind, the glow of the medkit's interface illuminating his vision even as he fell.

Medkit level 3 activated! Restoring 3,000 life points!

User now had 3100 life points!

As the healing energy surged through him, Kieth felt the pain begin to fade, his body mending itself even as he continued to fall. He could see Kurakabe leaping into the air, shadows swirling around him like a dark halo, preparing to deliver a finishing blow.

"For fuck's sake! Come on! Let's do this! Open system privilege!

System notification!

System privilege is now open, please.

Enter/speak your request summon!

As Keith's mind raced because of the tons of options, he shouted, Just give me anything that can kill these freaks! "

System notification!

Summoning random combat support...

Summon successful!

The summon list is.

Proton cannon (Iron Man) (one use only because the weapon's criteria haven't been met yet!)

Nuke bomb one use only because the weapon's criteria haven't been met yet!"For fuck's sake, this is for final boss stuff. If I use this, the kid will be caught in the blast. So I need something that will deal the blow without risking the kid's life." As he said that, many movies, anime, TV shows, fictional works, and game weapons appeared.

Kieth's mind raced as he scanned the chaotic array of weapons and abilities flashing before him. He needed something precise, something that could take down Kurakabe without endangering the child he had just saved. The countdown continued, each second a reminder of the urgency of his situation.

"Come on, come on!" he muttered, desperation creeping into his voice. He focused on the options, trying to filter out the dangerous ones. "I need something that can hit hard but won't cause collateral damage!"

Blade of Chaos (Kratos G.O.W.) (one use only because the weapon's criteria haven't been met yet!)

Devil Sword Dante (Dante DMC) is a one-use only because the weapon's criteria haven't been met yet! )

System notification!

The system suggestion is that the proton cannon is the choice; it's powerful enough to kill or damage the enemy to the point that it will force them to retreat and not harm the civilian. And the proton cannon is matched with the Masked Rider Faiz moveset. The AP user can combine it with Faiz. And the damage it can cause to your surroundings is minimal in area range.

Kieth's heart raced as he weighed his options, the countdown echoing in his mind like a relentless drum. The chaos of the arena faded into the background, and all he could focus on was the looming threat of Kurakabe and the child he had just saved.

"Proton cannon," he muttered, his voice steadying as he made his decision. "Now come to papa!"

System notification!

Proton cannon selected! Preparing for deployment!

As the mechanical voice chimed, Kieth felt a surge of energy coursing through him. The black and silver armor of his Faiz transformation shimmered, and a sleek, futuristic cannon materialized in his hands, its barrel glowing with a menacing light.

Kieth aimed the proton cannon at Kurakabe, who was still suspended in the air, shadows swirling around him like a tempest. The demon general's eyes widened in disbelief as he realized what Kieth was about to do.

"You're a fool to think you can defeat me!" Kurakabe roared, his voice echoing through the arena.

"I know! But now see you in hell, fuckface! If you survive this!" Kieth's finger tightened on the trigger of the proton cannon, the weight of the moment pressing down on him. He could feel the energy building, a crackling force that surged through the weapon and into his very being. The arena seemed to hold its breath, the chaos around him fading into a tense silence as he prepared to unleash his final attack.

With a roar that matched Kurakabe's, Kieth pulled the trigger. A brilliant beam of energy erupted from the cannon, illuminating the darkened arena with a blinding light. The air crackled with power as the proton blast surged toward the demon general, who was still suspended in mid-air, shadows swirling around him in a desperate attempt to shield himself.

"NO!" Kurakabe bellowed, his voice filled with rage and disbelief as the beam struck him head-on. The impact was cataclysmic, a shockwave of energy that rippled through the arena, sending debris flying and causing the ground to tremble beneath as the large blast struck Kurakabe (note: if you want to imagine it, think about a giant Bifrost from Thor or from JJK that skill Jacobs ladder). As the proton cannon blast is still hitting Kurakabe, something flew through it and struck Kieth's chest. As the two of them fell into the sky, Kurakabe fell into a giant hole made by the proton cannon. His body is not moving, and his whole body is burnt as the system notification alert pops up. Kieth's body fell into a deep cliff.

System notification!

Your enemy suffered critical damage! -200,000!

"Heh, now we're even, fuckface!"

User has suffered critical damage! -3050

User remaining life point: 50/6100 (bleeding)

User life points will decrease by 1 every hour.

As the system notification pops up again and again, his vision blurs into darkness as his body falls into the abyss, and one sound he hears before his consciousness fades.

"Meow!"

Meanwhile, Aleric, Keriel, Grath, and Lariel are with the citizens as they escape with them. They looked back; they could see the coliseum explode into pieces.

"Kieth, I hope he escapes! Keriel murmurs as she's holding Mochi (the cat, but in reality it's a behemoth. Kieth saved him last time), but all of a sudden Mochi jumps out to her grapes.

Mochi landed gracefully on the ground, his fur shimmering in the sunlight as he transformed from the small, seemingly ordinary cat into a massive behemoth. The ground trembled slightly beneath his weight, and the citizens gasped in awe and fear. Aleric, Grath, and Lariel exchanged glances, their expressions a mix of surprise and admiration.

"Mochi!" Keriel exclaimed, her voice a blend of concern and excitement. "What are you doing? We need to keep moving!" but mochi runs towards the blast where Kieth is fighting.

"No mochi, you can't do that there!" Aleric shouted as the carriage moved further and further to mochi.

Mochi, now a towering behemoth, charged toward the remnants of the coliseum, his massive paws pounding against the ground with a force that sent tremors through the earth. The citizens, still reeling from the chaos, watched in a mix of awe and fear as the creature barreled forward, determined to reach Kieth.

"Mochi, wait!" Keriel cried, her heart racing. She could feel the urgency in the air, the remnants of the battle still crackling with energy. "He's in danger! We need to get out of here!"

But Mochi was undeterred, his instincts guiding him toward the source of the chaos. As he approached the crater left by the proton cannon, the air shimmered with residual energy, and the ground was littered with debris. The once-mighty arena was now a smoldering ruin, and the echoes of Kieth's battle still reverberated in the air.

Aleric, Grath, and Lariel exchanged worried glances, their resolve hardening. "We can't let him go alone," Aleric said, his voice steady. "If Kieth is still alive, he'll need our help," but he's suddenly stopped by King Youm.

"No, you lads stay with my people. I'll be the one who goes after the kitten. I owe that kid for saving my ass, so this is the very least I can do."

Aleric opened his mouth to protest, but the fierce determination in King Youm's eyes silenced him. The king had always been a man of action, and this was no different. He turned to the others, his voice firm. "You must protect the citizens. I'll find Kieth and bring him back. He's not done yet."

With that, King Youm sprinted toward the crater, his armor glinting in the sunlight as he moved with purpose. The ground shook beneath him, remnants of the battle still crackling with energy. He could feel the heat radiating from the scorched earth, a reminder of the power that had just been unleashed.

As he reached the edge of the crater, he peered into the depths, his heart racing. The sight was both awe-inspiring and terrifying. The remnants of the proton cannon blast had created a massive chasm, as he saw the giant hole Keith's last attack create, but no one was there, so he shouted, "Keith!!! Hey lad!" As he shouted, Mochi isn't there too." Keith, big kitten!"

Keith's world faded to black, the chaos of the arena replaced by an eerie silence. He felt weightless, suspended in a void where time and pain ceased to exist. The last remnants of his consciousness flickered like a dying flame, and he clung to the memory of the child he had saved, the adrenaline-fueled rush of battle, and the satisfaction of delivering a blow to Kurakabe.

But the darkness was not empty. A soft, persistent sound broke through the silence, pulling him back from the brink. "Meow." It was a gentle, almost comforting sound, like a distant echo of a life he had fought to protect. Keith's mind began to stir, and he felt a warmth enveloping him, a flicker of life amidst the shadows.
