Kamen Rider: High Beam Rider - Starting with Saber

Chapter 21 Lan Yu and Natural Disasters

"Still too weak. If it could evolve into its Shining Form, perhaps..."

Lan Yu did not stop Lan Su from leaving, but was somewhat disappointed by Lan Su's progress in strength.

After calming down, Lanyu returned to her usual cheerful self.

He approached Wang Jian and teased, "You really don't hold back at all, do you? Weren't you a member of that organization before?"

Kamijou Daichi deactivated his transformation and replied emotionlessly, "I have already sold my soul to the darkness; it was all for the sake of truth!"

"What are you babbling about? Trying to be mysterious."

Lan Yu wasn't particularly interested in this guy, since he knew all about Kamijou Daichi's background. He was only somewhat interested in Anjian.

North District Base.

After everyone bandaged Rintaro and Kento's wounds, Lan Su explained that he needed to ask Daqin Temple for help and that the two of them needed to talk privately.

Because of Lan Su's help on these occasions, Daqin Temple agreed to this conversation.

In the workshop of Daqin Temple, Lan Su went straight to the point and stated his needs: "Mr. Daqin Temple, I would like to borrow some of your family's books on sword forging."

"That's possible, but do you mean you want to forge the Holy Sword yourself?"

"Forging a holy sword is not easy; it requires not only a large amount of materials and time, but also mastery of sword-forging techniques."

When the topic of sword forging came up, Daqin Temple became noticeably more talkative.

"Please rest assured, I'm just learning about it. If I ever need the Holy Sword, I will definitely ask for your assistance, Master Swordsmith!"

The holy sword he needs to forge is somewhat special, and he needs to be fully prepared.

"Furthermore, as a reward for reading the book, I can tell you who your family's prophecy is waiting for."

Lan Su, worried that Daqin Temple would not agree, released another bombshell.

"You know about my family's prophecy?" Daqin Temple was somewhat surprised.

"When the one who can truly awaken the Holy Sword Fiery Blaze appears, the stars will connect, and power will gather! The Holy Sword that will guide the story to its end will be born!"

Worried that Daqin Temple wouldn't believe him, Lan Su specially repeated the prophecy he had seen before.

During his training at the South Base, Lan Su had read many of the books in the Sword of Truth and had some knowledge of these secrets.

"Who is it? Please tell me!"

Daqin Temple completely lost its usual composure and grabbed Lan Su's arm, eager to know the answer.

"It's Touma! Whether you believe it or not, he's the one who can end the story."

Lan Su was somewhat frightened by the appearance of Daqin Temple and hurriedly gave the answer.

"Touhou Shin?" Daichinji was somewhat surprised, but also felt it was possible.

"How do you know that Toujin is the one who made the prophecy?"

"Ah, that's the secret, but I believe what I'm saying is true. You'll see the reason in a few months at the latest."

"..."

Daqin Temple finally agreed to Lan Su's request, and Lan Su left Daqin Temple's studio with satisfaction. The Narak space already contained many books.

Back in the conference hall, Lan Su saw Mei angrily berating Kento, while Onoue Ryo was trying his best to calm the agitated Mei down.

"Wow, it's so lively here."

Having achieved his goal, Lan Su was in a very good mood. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he spoke up to ease the awkwardness.

"Lan Su Sang, thank you so much! We really owe you a lot this time!"

Fei Yuzhen hurriedly stepped forward to thank Lan Su for his righteous help, thus calming the atmosphere in the meeting room.

"Don't do that. We're all swordsmen in the organization, it's only right that we help each other out."

"Young man, did you see Sophia when you brought the novelist and the others back?"

Ryo Oogami stepped forward and asked somewhat anxiously, "Sophia is not only the head of the North District Base, but also responsible for maintaining the energy barrier of the North District Base."

Now that Sofia is gone, the base could be invaded by the three Megiddo executives at any time.

"I'm sorry, I didn't find any trace of Sophia, otherwise I would have brought her back with me."

Lan Su naturally knew that Linghua had taken Sophia away, but telling this group now would only cause unnecessary trouble for himself and Linghua.

Speaking of Linghua, Lansu is also preparing to start implementing some plans.

…………

"What on earth is going on? Who is that guy who looks just like you?!"

As soon as Zios returned to their base, he stormed up to Lanyu and questioned her.

"Hey, hey, hey, know your place! Jumping around like that in front of me like that, or I'll kill you!"

Lan Yu was somewhat dissatisfied and kicked the easily angered guy away.

"You brat! This is our territory!" Raziel came to Zios's side, glaring at Lanyu with displeasure.

Although the three of them mocked each other every day, they had walked together for thousands of years, so they would naturally stand on the same side.

"Tsk, alright, alright, I'll reluctantly tell you all about it."

"Lan Su and I are like opposite sides of the same coin. If he is the light, then I am the darkness."

"As for our origins, I'm not afraid to tell you, he and I are both descendants of God!"

"Hahaha…"

Zios and Raziel naturally didn't believe these seemingly joking words, but Stryus secretly kept them in mind.

As for Wang Jian, he didn't care about Lan Yu's intrusion. Although he was a little curious about this guy who couldn't see into the future, he didn't care as long as it didn't affect his plans.

"Oh? Is this a new guy?"

Just then, a flippant voice came from behind, and a red figure walked in.

He approached Lan Yu and curiously examined her. Sensing Lan Yu's aura, Tian Zai took a deep sniff.

"You're something else, aren't you? You're one of us."

Tianzai casually put his arm around Lanyu's shoulder, acting like a good brother.

"You too, what's your name?"

Lan Yu looked at the natural disaster with interest, for this guy was created just like him.

"My name is Natural Disaster, what's yours?"

"Lan Yu".

"What? Your name is awful."

"The same to you."

They disliked each other's names, but then burst into laughter at the same time.

"Hey, where have you been? Behave yourself and don't do anything reckless, you bastard!"

Raziel angrily accused the natural disaster, while Old U stared at it with icy eyes.

This special Megido created by the three of them seems to be a bit disobedient.

Natural Disaster retorted defiantly, "I can go wherever I want!"

"Haha, you've got guts! Come on, let me treat you to milk tea!" Lan Yu admired Tian Zai's personality and pulled him away from the stronghold.

"Milk tea? What's that?" Tianzai asked curiously as the two went outside.

You'll find out soon enough.

"That kid is too arrogant! And that guy Tianzai is actually siding with outsiders!"

Zios and Raziel were very dissatisfied, but Old U remained as calm as ever.

"Never mind, the most important thing right now is to open the door to the catalog."

"Once we open the remaining four doors, we can open the door to the world of the Catalog. Once we control that power, everything will be under our control."

On the rooftop of a building, Lanyu appeared with two extra-large cups of milk tea.

Meanwhile, Tianzai had already curiously come closer and examined the drink in Lanyu's hand.

"Come and have a taste."

After handing the milk tea to Tianzai, Lanyu opened her own milk tea and began to enjoy it.

"Ha~ This tastes like milk tea! It's really good! No wonder Lan Su likes it so much."

Seeing Lan Yu looking so relaxed, Tian Zai copied Lan Yu's earlier actions, inserting a straw and taking a sip.

"So sweet!"

The sweetness and aroma of the milk tea instantly burst on his tongue, a taste he had never experienced before.

"Not bad, right!"

"Hmm, it's alright."

Natural Disaster turned his head away with a touch of arrogance, but he didn't put down the milk tea in his hand.

…………

Inside the Kamishiro family's villa estate, Kamishiro Reika sat on the living room sofa, a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

Sophia, on the other hand, is currently bound with ropes and locked in the study.

"Here we go, here we go!"

Lan Su and Yaz each held a plate with milk tea and desserts that he had made according to the recipes left by Xiang Yi.

I promised Linghua that I would make her milk tea and desserts as an apology, and now I am fulfilling that promise.

"Miss Linghua, please enjoy your meal. These desserts were made with great care by Lord Lansu."

Yaz delivered the dessert to Linghua's table, and didn't forget to say a few nice words about Lansu.

"Here, try this, a strawberry milkshake!"

Looking at the dazzling array of food in front of her, Linghua swallowed slightly, picked up the small cake in front of her, and took a bite.

"Delicious!" Linghua exclaimed instinctively.

"As long as you like it."

Seeing that Linghua was satisfied, Lan Su also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lord Lansu, I was also able to help!" Yaz quickly claimed credit.

"Of course, I couldn't have accomplished all this without the help of my most capable assistant."

Lan Su ruffled Yaz's long hair and praised him affectionately.

Linghua was slightly dissatisfied with Lan Su's attitude towards Yaz.

She muttered to herself, "That Lan Su guy is really something, he's never treated me like this before."

Turning her grief and anger into a craving for food, Linghua devoured the delicious food on the table.

"I'll go see Sofia."

Lan Su picked up a dessert and went to the study where Sophia was being held.

"Now that you're awake, stop pretending, Miss Sophia."

Sophia opened her eyes, her gaze complex, as if she wanted to ask Lan Su and Ling Hua why they did this.

"Sorry, Sophia, for capturing you."

Lan Su brought a drink and dessert to Sophia and freed her from her restraints.

"Mr. Lan Su, why did you bring me here?"

Sophia did not blame Lan Su and Ling Hua for their actions; she simply voiced her doubts.

"Would you believe me if I said this was the command of the Holy Lord of Truth?"

"The Holy Lord's command... how could it be...!"

Recalling her previous conversation with Daichi Kamijou, Sophia had a shocking guess in her mind!

"Could the traitor within the organization actually be the Holy Lord?!"
