Every creator has feelings for the characters he writes.
Most of this emotion is based on "love".
Although it is arrogant to put the will of the creator above the logic of the character, as an excellent creator, it is instinct to let the character serve the plot.
Therefore, such a scene often appears in many works...
It's obviously a "character" that the creator expresses his love for, but that "character" lives a very miserable life in the creator's works!
So, when those "characters" come to their "creator", what kind of emotions will they have towards their "creator"?
An arranged fate, a tragic life...
Thinking about it, it should be based on "resentment", right?
so……
Shotaro Ishimori used the word "debt collection".
Just like the legend of the past lives of father and son.
After he actually met his characters...
…
Being watched so calmly by Shotaro Ishimori, both Sakurai Yuto and Gates felt a little uncomfortable, and subconsciously sat up straight.
It's like a child facing his father...
It was a very strange feeling, different from their mental preparation.
After adjusting his thoughts a little, Sakurai Yuto shook his head and replied:
"No, Mr. Ishimori, we don't think you owe us anything."
Since there is no debt, then naturally there is no way to collect debt.
What's more, as a Kamen Rider running maintenance time, Sakurai Yuto is very convinced that even if their world really originated from "fiction" in the beginning...
Now, he must have found his own "path".
It has become "real" in a sense!
Otherwise, who are he and Gates in this world at this moment?
so……
Sakurai Yuto looked at Shotaro Ishimori and continued: "On the contrary, maybe we should thank you."
Looking at Sakurai Yuto's eyes full of determination, Ishimori Shotaro was both relieved and sighed with a smile.
"As expected, you are Zero North."
…
When the characters you write truly come to life and stand in front of you, as the creator of the "characters", will you feel awkward?
At this time, Shotaro Ishimori gave his answer:
Just like a child who has traveled far away from home and has not seen him for many years, after a few simple chats, he no longer feels strange.
And, I can’t help but sigh...
Ah, you are indeed my child!
…
"So, how can I help you?"
Seeing the stunned expressions of Yuuto Sakurai and Gates, Shotaro Ishimori asked with a smile.
"Why is this expression, am I wrong?"
Sakurai Yuto and Gates looked at each other and shook their heads.
"No, you are right, we are indeed here to ask for your help." Sakurai Yuto said.
"Haha, I'll just say it."
Shotaro Ishimori laughed.
"Let's talk."
Shotaro Ishimori said.
"Well, it's like this..."
Next, Yuuto Sakurai narrated one by one the time robber Teed kidnapped Hana and brought her to this world.
Later, Gates also added some information...
For example, the disappearance of Tsukuyomi, and the fact that he and Shogo Tokiwa came to this world in the Time Demon Machine in order to find the missing Tsukuyomi and to solve the incident of the alien Den-O.
After hearing these words, Shotaro Ishimori nodded slowly, understanding.
"That is to say, you want to know from me some information about Tide's setting and some information related to the King of Time's Alien Den-O chapter?"
"Yes."
Sakurai Yuto nodded.
"At least, we hope to know who the singularity is in the Alien Den-O chapter. Of course, if possible, please tell us the information about the Alien Den-O."
Sakurai Yuto added.
Hearing this, Shotaro Ishimori smiled.
"Then wait a moment."
After saying that, Shotaro Ishimori got up, went to his studio, took out a few drafts of settings, returned to the living room, and placed them on the table in front of Sakurai Yuuto and Gates.
Those were the draft settings for Time Tribulator Tet, Singularity Point Kukunaga, and the Alien King of Den.
…
In this world, even with the existence of that special dream, Shotaro Ishimori is the well-deserved creator of the Kamen Rider series.
Because the birth of every Kamen Rider work is not a comic work that comes first from the dream world.
Rather, Shotaro Ishimori thought about the story line first, and with the setting of the characters, only then can the dream world unfold and continue.
…
Shotaro Ishimori sat down again and said to Sakurai Yuuto and Gates:
"Let's take a look. This is the character design I just finalized last night. I hope it can be helpful to you."
"Yes, thank you."
Sakurai Yuto and Gates leaned over slightly to say thank you. Then, Sakurai Yuto picked up the draft setting of Time Robber Teed, and Gates picked up the remaining two.
As Sakurai Yuto and Gates watched carefully, Ishimori Shotaro added:
"As for the story line of the Alien King Arc, I haven't decided yet, so I won't tell you so as not to affect your judgment. However, there is one thing I can tell you now..."
Having said this, Shotaro Ishimori paused, and with both Sakurai Yuto and Gates raising their heads because of these words and listening carefully, he continued:
"I don't intend to throw away the setting that 'only the singularity can transform into a Den-O'...even if it's a different kind of Den-O."
Upon hearing this, Gates immediately lowered his head and looked at the two setting drafts in his hand.
He understood what Shotaro Ishimori meant...
In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, this young man named Shingo Kuunaga is not only a singularity, but also the one chosen by the Time Tribulator, the Alien King of Lightning!
…
Name: Hisaga Shingo.
Sex: Male.
age:? (Looks 7 years old)
Notes: The mysterious boy, the singularity, the transformer of the alien Den-O, the key to the divergence point of the alien Den-O's timeline.
…
…
Be careful with me for a long time.
As Purtalus left the room after questioning, Nogami Ryotaro fell into deep thought.
After some inquiries, apart from being more certain that there are indeed other abnormalities in Kuunaga Shingo, it can be said that... little was gained.
This is not because there is a problem with Purtalus's speaking skills, but that even Purtalus cannot ask about a "disappeared memory".
By the way, Potaros suspected that Teed the Time Robber was responsible... although he had no proof.
At the same time, Ryotaro Nogami suddenly thought about the monster that was chasing Kuunaga Shingo, that it might not be the strange devil.
Therefore, his desire to talk to the strange demon god, which had cooled down after listening to Kuunaga Shingo's story, became stronger again.
After all, only by talking can we determine whether the other party is the strange demon god that the commander said was taken in by the stationmaster...
In other words, the possibility that the strange demon possessing Shingo Kuunaga could be their ally is back.
But no matter what, there is actually only one thing Ryotaro Nogami has to do now, and that is to stay by Shingo Kuunaga's side and wait for the monster that is chasing him to show up!
…
…
Just as Gates was watching the drafts of Shingo Kukunaga and the alien Den-O, Yuto Sakurai was also looking at the drafts of Tet the Time Raider.
…
Name: Tide.
Occupation: Time Tribber.
Abilities: time-stop, mind control...
Note: The intention is to realize the ambition of becoming the king of the world by erasing the Heisei Knights and reconstructing history. The mind is extremely unstable and can easily fall into a manic state...
…
Sakurai Yuto already knew that Tid wanted to erase the history of the Heisei Knights, but the other party's ultimate goal was to become the king...well, considering the goal of the Time Robbers, this makes sense.
However, erasing the Heisei Knights...
Thinking of the Kamen Rider comic series in this world, Sakurai Yuto couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked quickly:
"By turning the history of the Heisei Knights into fictional manga stories, will all Heisei Knights be erased?"
Shotaro Ishimori smiled and replied: "That's what Tide thinks."
"..."
Hearing this, Sakurai Yuto fell into silence.
Seeing this, Gates asked:
"So, that is to say, Tide wants to use the singularity to make the timeline of this world overwrite the timeline of our world?"
This is a guess that has been made before, and I am asking it now just to verify it.
Should I say it was as expected?
Shotaro Ishimori gave a definite answer.
"Yes."
And reminded.
"Not only the power of the singularity, but also the power of Zero North is also indispensable."
"Zero North? Not Den-O?"
Upon hearing this, Sakurai Yuto immediately asked.
But when Shotaro Ishimori heard this, he just smiled and said nothing.
Next, after several more questions and answers, Yuuto Sakurai stood up, bowed, expressed his gratitude, and bid farewell to Shotaro Ishimori.
Shotaro Ishimori sent them to the door.
And his parting words to Sakurai Yuto and Gates were...
"I wonder if you have ever thought about it, maybe this world is a fiction?"
…
…
"This world is false!"
"Once the timeline of the alien Den King is corrected, everything in this world will disappear!"
Even though Tit has left, the words Tit said still echo in the mind of "Shougo Tokiwa" of the Alien Den-O Line.
[So, am I also false? 】
At this moment, "Tokiwa Shogo" suddenly turned his head, looked at Tsukuyomi walking beside him, and thought for the first time:
[Where are the Tsukuyomi poems and paintings in our world? ]
