A brave girl who pursues her love, her face flushed red, her eyelashes fluttering slightly. Her fingers nervously tugged at the corner of her clothes, waiting for the boy's response.
After a day of playing, the sun was setting, the weather was starting to cool, and a gust of cold wind blew past. The girl couldn't help but shiver and rub her arms.
Seeing this, Ye Ming took off the pale yellow scarf he was wearing and gently wrapped it around the girl's neck.
"So warm." The girl wrapped the scarf around her neck, feeling the warmth it brought. Her face turned even redder as she murmured softly.
"A parting gift, Ye Ming?"
Ye Ming met the girl's expectant gaze, a slight smile on his lips as he nodded gently. The girl smiled happily from the bottom of her heart.
"Thank you! This is the first time in my life I've received a gift, and the person who gave me the gift is you. I will cherish this scarf, just as I cherish my own life!"
Ye Ming listened to her words, a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes on his face. "This is just an ordinary scarf. You can buy many more like it. You don't have to treat it as if it's your own life."
"That's not the same at all." The girl shook her head, completely disagreeing with Ye Ming's statement.
She looked at Ye Ming, who didn't seem to understand what she meant. She hesitated for a moment, then carefully and timidly opened her mouth to speak: "So, Ye Ming, you still haven't answered my confession."
"..."
"So, for you, today is also a good day." After a moment of silence, Ye Ming finally spoke.
"The first date, and the only date. We played at the amusement park for the first time. For the first time, a girl confessed her feelings to me... These are all beautiful memories."
"So, I will remember these things, and I will never forget them, but..."
"I'm sorry." Hearing Ye Ming's words, the girl showed a hint of doubt and confusion. Ye Ming didn't explain. He could already feel the scent of the Swarm.
Not those few from the city, but from the amusement park.
The girl took Ye Ming's hand and they took the last train, officially announcing the end of their amusement park trip.
After doing all this, Ye Ming returned to the amusement park. High in the sky, he could vaguely see countless tiny black dots that were actually the bodies of the Swarm.
"From one, it became more than ten?"
Ye Ming looked at the city that had been bathed in the setting sun, his expression a little strange.
He and Firefly had been in this city for almost twenty years, and had experienced countless Swarm attacks. In the past, they had only dealt with a few at a time, but this time, the number of Swarm had reached dozens.
And now, far away in the eastern part of the amusement park, it seemed that a Swarm attack had just occurred, drawing Firefly's attention.
Everything, it seemed, was a test set up for him in the darkness, to test the performance of the weapon.
The Battle
This was clearly not just a simple test. The further he went, the more he felt that this was a script he had to follow.
Ye Ming didn't know if his judgment was correct, but now, he didn't have time to think about the battle with the Swarm. But this time, it seemed that his luck was not so good.
Although he had transformed once before and already had a certain understanding of Zeronos's true power, he had not yet had a deep understanding of the concept of the Swarm and did not know how many Swarm queens he needed to eliminate.
But this time, the Empress Titania seemed to have seen through him completely. She did not need him to know too much, she only needed him to kill to the level of the Swarm Emperor.
The amusement park was completely different. The originally twenty-odd Swarm, he didn't even need to deal with them all himself. The joyous crowd was scattered, and the heavily armed forces were constantly pouring out of the battlefield. But Ye Ming had already retreated.
He looked at the growing black dot in the sky and raised his hand. He inserted the Zeronos card, which represented his memories, into his belt and shouted, "Henshin!"
"[Vega Form!]"
With the unique sound of the transformation, Ye Ming's body glowed. In just the blink of an eye, he had successfully transformed into the Vega Form of Kamen Rider Zeronos.
The bright light pierced the pupils of the Swarm. In the next second, dozens of blazing beams shot out from between his eyebrows.
The Swarm that had already been exposed to the poisonous gas did not react at all. They just stood there, their tough shells unable to withstand the scorching beams. Their bodies, from the mouth to the tail, were instantly roasted into scorched earth. The scorched earth then turned into fly ash and was blown away by the wind.
The terrifying destructive power was far more effective than the rifle of AR-1368. Looking at the scene in front of him, Ye Ming finally understood that this time, he had some bargaining chips.
What he didn't expect was that after he finished off the Swarm, the Swarm in the sky did not move at all, as if they had been petrified. Seeing this, Firefly was also a little surprised.
This was Ye Ming's second transformation, and the form he showed this time was also different from the first time. What was even more important was that this time, Ye Ming's form had also evolved into a brand new form.
Is the future Ye Ming even stronger?
Thinking of this, a trace of joy appeared in Firefly's heart, but also some worry. She knew very well what the price of Ye Ming's strength was.
He had to experience the lack of basic genes at every stage of the battle, accelerated aging, death... He had to endure the torment of the Swarm at every moment. Every time he fought, he had to risk his life.
"Such a fierce battle, I'm afraid that if you fought against a knight of the same level, you would have died long ago."
"Ye Ming, are you going to die?"
Firefly quickly flew to Ye Ming's side, her expression full of concern.
Ye Ming nodded slightly and looked at her. After confirming her safety, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and deactivated his transformation.
The red card in his hand was gradually fading, and Ye Ming knew that he only had one memory left, which would soon be exhausted.
The transformation was his memory, and once he used it up, he would disappear from this world. Firefly would never have such a thing happen.
Ye Ming took a deep breath and opened his mouth to Firefly, "I'm sorry."
Firefly shook her head honestly. She looked at Ye Ming and said, "I don't need you to say sorry to me. I know, you did it for me. But... candy, can you not do this kind of thing in the future?"
Ye Ming looked at her with a dazed expression, not seeming to understand what she meant. He hesitated for a moment, and his originally emotionless eyes suddenly couldn't hold back a trace of unnamed emotion, and he couldn't answer.
"So, Ye Ming, today is your confession, have you accepted it?"
