[Brain Depository: Share it here if you're not afraid of Fangires~]

[Plant one picture, grow a hundred! Hand over your collections!]

...The sky was so gloomy it looked as if it might collapse.

Torrential rain poured down, mercilessly washing over every corner of the city.

Outside a high-end cemetery in Setagaya Ward.

The continuous curtain of rain shrouded the world in gray and depression.

A black stretched limousine was parked quietly by the roadside.

The car door opened, and a sophisticated black long-handled umbrella unfurled, shielding against the wind and rain.

Su Ye stepped out.

He wore a well-tailored, high-end custom black suit.

The fabric was crisp, without a single wrinkle.

Amidst the guests holding cheap umbrellas and hurrying along with somber expressions...

He seemed out of place.

It was a kind of innate nobility.

Elegant, languid, yet carrying a majesty that made people dare not look directly at him.

The surrounding crowd involuntarily made way for him.

Whispers flickered in and out of the sound of the rain.

"Who is that?"

"Never seen him... With that aura, is he a young master from some family?"

"Look at that car and those clothes, definitely not an ordinary person."

Su Ye ignored the inquisitive, envious, and even jealous gazes around him.

He had one hand in his pocket and held the umbrella steadily with the other.

His pace was neither fast nor slow; as he stepped on the water-logged ground, not a single speck of mud splashed up.

He looked up slightly, watching the funeral taking place deep within the cemetery.

A playful curve formed at the corners of his mouth.

It had been three days since he transmigrated to this world.

This was the world of Kamen Rider Kiva.

A dangerous time and space where humans and monsters called Fangires coexisted.

In this world, glass was the symbol of that race.

They fed on human life energy and lurked within human society.

And him, Su Ye.

His current identity was a returned overseas Chinese.

The young helmsman of the mysterious conglomerate, the Su Group.

This was a newbie protection identity specially arranged by the system to make it easier for him to act in human society.

He possessed legal, massive funds and a very high social status in this country.

"What a nice start."

Su Ye whispered to himself.

Whether it was wealth, status, or the power hidden beneath his calm exterior...

It all filled him with a desire to control this new world.

With a thought.

A light blue screen that only he could see unfolded before his eyes.

Looking at the information on the panel.

A trace of imperceptible crimson light flashed in Su Ye's eyes.

True Ancestor.

That was an existence that transcended the peak of all Fangires.

Not to live by the rules in this world.

But to make the rules of this world change because of him.

Just then.

A slight commotion came from the crowd.

Su Ye's gaze pierced through layers of rain, accurately locking onto a figure.

That was another target of his tonight.

Megumi Aso.

A warrior of the Wonderful Blue Sky Organization and also a professional model.

At this moment, she was holding a bouquet of white chrysanthemums, walking towards the tombstone.

To lure out the lurking monster.

She had specially changed into a set of black mourning clothes.

It was a silk shirt of excellent quality.

Because of the heavy rain, it was now completely soaked.

It clung tightly to her graceful body.

The originally loose clothing now felt like a second skin.

Outlining her amazing waist-to-hip ratio without reservation.

Rainwater slid down her long neck.

Flowing into her deep, exquisite collarbone hollows.

Continuing downward, disappearing into the depths of the neckline tightly wrapped by the shirt.

With her breathing.

The contours there rose and fell sharply, and one could even vaguely see the lace edges of her undergarments.

That kind of looming haziness.

Exuded a lethal temptation on this oppressive rainy day.

Her lower half was a black hip-hugging miniskirt.

Below the hem.

Were a pair of long, beautiful legs wrapped in thin black silk stockings.

The stockings were as thin as cicada wings.

Tightly binding her firm thigh muscles.

Because of walking in the mud.

Some mud had splashed onto the originally flawless black stockings.

This strong contrast between the sacred and the filthy.

Not only did it not ruin her beauty.

Instead, it added a destructive urge.

Megumi Aso seemed to feel the cold.

She instinctively hugged her arms tight.

This movement made the soaked clothes tighten even further.

Squeezing the proud curves of her upper body even more breathtakingly.

She trembled slightly.

Her face was somewhat pale, yet it made her eyes look even more stubborn and bright.

Su Ye quietly appreciated this scene.

Like appreciating a piece of art about to be shattered in a storm.

"Exquisite."

He gave an evaluation in his heart.

Just then.

Perhaps because the ground was slippery or perhaps because she was too nervous.

Megumi Aso, mixed in the crowd, stumbled.

Losing her balance, she fell to the side.

And the direction she fell was exactly where Su Ye was standing.

Without any hesitation.

Su Ye reached out with the hand that wasn't holding the umbrella.

Steadily catching her by the waist.

"Ugh!"

Megumi Aso let out a short cry of surprise.

The sensation at that moment made Su Ye's eyebrows twitch slightly.

What he felt was an incredible softness and delicacy.

Even through the soaked fabric.

He could clearly feel the elastic skin temperature at her waist.

And the muscle lines tensed from nervousness.

A faint, delicate fragrance mixed with the scent of rain.

Instantly entered Su Ye's breath.

Megumi Aso looked up in panic.

Her eyes crashed right into Su Ye's deep, abyss-like eyes.

In those eyes, there seemed to be a vortex that made her heart skip a beat.

"Are you alright, miss?"

Su Ye's voice was deep and magnetic.

Carrying a gentlemanly concern, yet revealing a hint of undeniable dominance.

His palm did not release immediately.

Instead, he lightly caressed the soft flesh behind her waist.

Megumi Aso's body suddenly stiffened.

An unnatural blush appeared on her face.

She flusteredly tried to stand up straight.

"Tha... Thank you."

However.

Before she could fully break free from Su Ye's embrace.

A sudden change occurred.

A tall man in a black trench coat had approached at some point.

Kaoru Tsugami.

Or rather, the Horse Fangire.

On Su Ye's retina.

The red dot representing that man was flashing violently.

That was the system's hostile lock-on marker.

The smile at the corner of Su Ye's mouth deepened.

Can't hold back anymore?

"Ah!"

A shrill scream broke the solemnity of the funeral.

The man suddenly let out a beastly roar.

His originally normal human face.

Instantly shattered like broken glass.

Revealing a hideous, terrifying horse face covered in colorful patterns!

"A monster!"

"Help!"

The surrounding guests instantly fell into panic.

Screams and cries blended together as the crowd scattered and fled.

A slender rapier had appeared in the Horse Fangire's hand at some point.

The cold tip of the sword.

Pointed directly at Megumi Aso, who was closest to him!

"Run!"

Megumi Aso couldn't care about the previous shyness and palpitations.

She forcefully pushed Su Ye's chest.

It was an instinct to protect an ordinary person.

"Don't just stand there! Get out of here!"

She shouted.

Then, from under her soaked skirt, she pulled out a small silver handgun.

That was a special anti-monster weapon from the Wonderful Blue Sky Organization.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Fire spat from the muzzle.

Special bullets struck the Horse Fangire's body.

However.

Only a series of insignificant sparks were produced.

The Horse Fangire let out a contemptuous, strange laugh.

He casually swung his shield.

"Clang!"

A loud bang.

Megumi Aso felt like she had been hit by a truck.

She was sent flying backwards.

Landing heavily on the muddy ground.

"Cough, cough..."

The sharp pain almost suffocated her.

The gun in her hand also fell to the side.

She struggled to get up.

Her expensive black mourning clothes were now covered in mud.

The stockings at her knees were torn by the rough ground.

Revealing the snow-white skin underneath, seeping with blood.

That disheveled appearance.

Exuded a heartbreakingly tragic beauty.

The Horse Fangire approached step by step.

The long sword in its hand was raised high.

In those cloudy beast eyes, there was only cruelty and bloodlust.

"Goodbye, beautiful lady."

The monster let out a muffled whisper.

Megumi Aso closed her eyes in despair.

Her gun had jammed.

Her body was also in too much pain to move.

Is this... the end?

To die in such an ugly monster's hands on a cold rainy night like this?

However.

The expected pain did not arrive.

Amidst the torrential rain and screams.

A crystal-clear sound of footsteps rang out abruptly.

"Step."

It was an expensive black leather shoe.

The sound of lightly stepping through a puddle.

The sound wasn't loud.

Yet it seemed to possess some kind of magic.

Instantly drowning out all the noise.

Causing everyone present, even the monster about to commit the murder.

To have their hearts skip a beat.

Megumi Aso instinctively opened her eyes.

She saw a tall and upright figure.

At some point.

Had blocked her path.

Still so noble and elegant.

As if he were not facing a man-eating demon.

But an opera about to begin.

Su Ye slowly folded his black umbrella.

Casually sticking it into the mud nearby.

He raised his hand.

Methodically unbuttoning a button on his suit jacket.

The movement was breathtakingly elegant.

He tilted his head slightly.

In those deep eyes, there was no longer any concealment.

Crimson light flickered in the curtain of rain like ghost fire.

The show.

Has begun.
