[Kitchen Ichinose]
"Ah, that was a great day, alright son, itadakimasu" Tamami said as she dove into her food, today was a great day, her son is as expected the greatest. However, looking at him, he seems to be starring into space, just looking down. "Houtarou-kun... Are you ok? Could it be that this old lady cooking is no-"
Suddenly Houtarou begun to eat rapidly, stuffing food into hit mouth, this is the first time she has ever seen her son eat that fast. After a minute or so her son quickly said "Thanks for the meals mom, love you and your cooking" he said kissing her on the cheek before running upstairs... Jeez what's with the boy today?
Even at the kitchen, he seems to be a bit out of it and he loves cooking alot... hm... As a mother it's her responsibility to find out why her son is so spaced out. Hm...
Thinking about it for a while, his spaced out look, his lack of response, yet his overly expressive face... 'Could it be? My son finally experienced the joy of youth and found love!' she thought and unleased her delusion I mean Imagination as she tried to think about who it's and if she can have a potential daughter in law soon. Too bad for her but my wives are... BB, Kiara, Nightingale, Harribel, Tsunade, Elysia, Mebius, Rias, (the list goes on and on and on)
[Some time later]
Starring at the ceiling, I suddenly jerk up awake as I couldn't help but sweat. It's like when you were sleeping at night but need to jerk off to porn so you get your phone. I got my Gotchardriver (Houtarou ver.) and starred at it... X-liner and Hopper-Ichigo couldn't help but get up and asked "Liner! Hopper?" I hugged the 2 of them in their toy form and cooed them a bit. "It's alright, I was just worried that this was a dream... I am glad that it's not" I said crying a bit...
How long has it been? For how long I have fantasized about being a Kamen Rider? 19 years in my past life and 17 years in this life... That would be almost 4 decades in total, almost the entire run of Kamen Rider... I can't help but tear up a bit, if this was just a dream or fantasy then I would have... NVM
I decided to sneak out into the forest, thank god I made these windows automatic. I bought with me the 3 chemy card I currently have and my Gotchardriver
[The forest, Houtarou secret base]
Every loner must have their mancave. For example, Batman and his Batcave.
I am not as rich as Batman but I do have a high salary as the head chef so I was able to make my mancave not a section of my bedroom or some closet. My man cave is quite literally a cave that I renovated.
Boasting its own gym, 5G connection, computer set up, longue and even a private restroom and garden. This's the Ichinose cave. "Hopper!" Hopper-Ichigo said exploring the chemy explored the surrounding area, I also let out X-Liner and my latest chemy - Kleavmantis. (Just imagine Kamantis but with Kleavor looks. So it's no longer green but kept it 4 scythes, now having it shaped as crude axes that can also be used as shields, most of its body is yellow with those spike guards located on its feet for better leverage)
"Kleave!" Kleavemantis said as it seems to become more... Stoic? IDK how chemyvolution (the technical term as I am coining it) works but definitely like this.
Anyway, looking at the Gotchardriver (Houtarou ver.) I noticed a little cable on it and well, I decided to stick my own cable in and what I got was... wow...
Files on the construction of the Gotchadriver. Wow, this thing can generate more energy than a nuclear power plant as a byproduct and said energy is recycled into the void, completely nullifying the law of conversion. It seems to be made out of a metal that is inert in nature and has properties similar to plastic, and a alchemical accelerant that can perform alchemy at speeds so fast it do look like an instant... at least the old one did.
My Gotchardriver is definitely much better, but with a single drawbacks, I can't use the 'wild mode' form. Which is a shame but in the long run it doesn't really matter.
At any rate there are also some files on alchemical practice which I read up and I must said it's worthy of the man who made a driver. You got to know but any scientist that can make a belt that can henshin is a certified genius amongst genius. Reading this paper, it mostly talk about the origin of alchemy, usage, the creation of the Gotchardriver and the mechanism used to convert a bit of alchemical power into nuclear fission, and how to create a pocket dimension using non-existance.
Reading this isn't like reading some fantasy book but rather a science book one would see made by a nobel laureate. It explains the concept in simple terms yet the concept behind it is so complex I can barely make out what it's trying to tell me. But in short, it uses alchemy to split off an electron from a hydrogen and collide protons with each other to create a chain reaction... Fuck who ever wrote this must be a genius as even if you remove the alchemy this is a draft on cold fusion.
I watch as my chemy play around and can't help but want to ask... Where did they come from? Why were they sealed in cards? Pokemon rules?
"Hopper! Kleaver! Hopper! Steam!"
"Ok, so you were created by alchemist who based you off of other chemys and you were sealed cause they were afraid of you? That's kinda pathetic" I said in the end as the 3 looked confused (?)
"I mean, they sealed you instead of trying to understand you? Like seriously that's so fucking pathetic, if I were them I would try to understand you" I said smiling as they all begun to cheer.
Honestly it's kinda sad... What if... Well I can see that mass panic but back then we didn't accept black people as humans until much recently... Maybe the situation of chemy are a bit more extreme. Just look at Marvel and DC. In short maybe it's better for the Chemy to roam somewhere they can be considered as normal. Like Avalon and the... fae...
"Project Avalon" I hum as I wrote that in for later... But now... It was time to pratice
[Montage!]
[My latest song I am running to: Wake up Decker!]
"OSU!" I said as I carried the largest weight I can, back then my limit was set at 4 tons on a powerlift (raw) and I was out for an hour or so. But now it just felt light... Like really light. I tested some more and found out my max to be capped at 20 tons (thanks god the chemy can do alchemy otherwise I don't know what I would be getting into). My fastest speed for a 100 meter dash was 8 second and now it's down to 3 second. Fuck that's fast boy very fast, and that's just running mind you.
Next up I attempted to do Memory Partition and Thought Acceleration, something I never tried again after almost frying my brain out. I now created a 'Conceptual heat sink' to get rid of the extra heat and found out that I can produce 5 rooms so that's 3125 thoughts contributing into one goal... Wait I just remember about Galvans... If I separate my brain... No that will definitely give me bipolar... But what if I connect it to another computer? Maybe later. But this is basically 3125 thoughts, very good but not good enough. I can accelerate my thoughts by 300% but anymore and my heat sinks won't be able to keep up.
I suddenly remember something... Ishtar, more specifically her NP, which utilize displacement magecraft... A form of alchemy!
Dropping everything I quickly gather my chemmy as I tried to work it out... Fortunately the FGO game still exist here so it's easy to copy some of it. Now if I were to take A and turn it into B is simple but in Type-Moon it will suffer some sort of degradation... Not in this case. In this world there will be no degradation, no way who said that Kamen Rider are all plot armors not me. At any rate, if I were to use it now I can effectively do things like change the concept of life itself... And suffer no degradation or backlash whatsoever... No way can all alchemist do this? Fuck I am way too behind? Reading the notes it looks like it wasn't listed in the usage but... This is merely talking about the origin and basic usage of alchemy not the advance shit (Little does he know)
At any rate even if I could change the concept of life, no guarantee I could change it back due to not having enough hard drive to store the information known as life before hand. So in short, I can only displace the space before me... Made much easier thanks to my martial arts making me become similar to the universe...
Spatial displacement, conceptual manipulation, shape shifting... All of that should be possible with enough training. For now my basic abilities stop at just making point A to B faster or inverting area. After all manipulating a concept is harder than one would think... But for now I can make myself conceptually 'not here' Meaning that I can remove my existence temporarily... Bad news is that I am really spreading myself thin so not a good idea to do that too often.
"Sah!" I said standing up as my chemy look at me in excitement "Time to do... THE POSE!"
[And for the next few hour, he just continued to pose until he realized the sun was rising]
"EI! Kiddo, can we have that rainbow jururira? Need it for my surgery" "Yes right away!" "How about that Decade fruit dessert!" "Hai" You know... Usually when I stay up late like this, I am very lethargic but now I am so energized... Like I rarely sleep more than 3 hour a week and had a few breakdowns for a short time. But kept it under the carpet.
To be fair pretty sure my mom knows but she loves me too much to care. Also I feel like my cooking is better, like some of my 'special reference food' like the rainbow jururira is literally shining... Also...
After taking a sip, old man Juro took a sip of the rainbow jururira as it shined and instantly he tasted the rainbow in his mouth, it was sweet yet not sweet enough to overwhelm him, the multitude of bean pasted that was finely minced practically melted as his mind numbed, and his mouth begun to drool. This taste... Reminded him of his older brother who died last year. He begun to cry from the nostalgia
[POV switch, literally everyone else]
Starring at Old man Juro, everyone was shocked... Fuck you are actually crying? Is the food that good? Should I order it more... Not that I think about it, the kid is good, way too good for a normal family restaurant, but damn... Fuck to be honest, tasting his food is... Wow, like totally different did he become enlightened over night? No way the food is much better. Fuck, this food is so good? I need to eat more, it's making me cry...
"KYA~!"
Fuck did that girl just moan? Shit, this is some really good food
[1 hour later]
"Ur mum... I think I am going to be late for school can I go to school now? " I asked, as my mom just nodded and said "Everyone, the restaurant is now closing, my son needs to go to school, so bye son! Good luck with school" most people groaned but they are not savages
I nod as I gave her a quick kiss on the cheek and said goodbye to her and everyone. Today is a great day for me...
[Much Later on during lunch]
'What is that smell?' Rinne thought as she smelled something delicious, even more than her own custom prepared lunch. Following the crowd, she saw... Houtarou being surrounded by people as they kept shouting. An usual day...
"1000 Yen I want just a small taste!" "OMG, Houtarou-kun we can meet in the back to discuss more" "Dude, I helped cover for you in one of our class"
Houtarou was being surrounded by a bunch of people as they surround his lunch... It smells so good... God she loves smelling Houtarou... food, food.
Like she doesn't love him at all... She hates him, I mean she was always the best in class until he arrived and just bested her at everything. Back then she was always praised in elementary school as the smartest girl and was popular due to how 'rich' her 'family' is but the in middle school Houtarou arrived and she was instantly shifted to second best
[Flashback]
"Yo, people, my name is Ichinose Houtarou, head chef at Kitchen Ichinose..." He said with a smile as he wore clothing that definitely violated the school rules "I actually have a class warming gift of a few free coupon" he said as he threw a bunch of paper into the air as everyone tried to grab some. Rinne looked confused as Houtarou merely bowed gracefully whilst the teacher tried to calm thing down (collect as much ticket as possible)
Houtarou merely laughed as he left and said "Ok I need to take a shit" now many people don't understand English but she did and she marked him as rude, brash and cute. But she heard her friend gossips
"I heard that Houtarou-sama was challenged by a 5 star hotel at a cook off" "Didn't he cook at a Michelin star restaurant once?" "He's so handsome, I want to propose to him! He's a perfect cook and so kind!" "Me and my family eat at his place everyday"
And then her life begun to be all about Houtarou. Like seriously, the guy sleep in class, argue with the teacher and just mess around yet he still gets good grades. As in 100% on all his important tests, yes important test since any grades that he lacks he merely just joined some national or international tournament and win first place. Practically forcing the school to take him in.
Honestly it made her despair that someone like Houtarou existed, a perfect human, good at cooking, smart, good looking but... It was something else that made her attracted to him...
[Nope flashback over, go learn more about it a few chapter later when I figure out what the event was... Now big timeskip to waste even more time]
Over the next few day, I begun my 'preparation' phase... I started by practicing martial arts more, more importantly I tried to integrate alchemy (still weird to say that) and martial arts. Trying to make my grand opening warp space by integrating the concept of warp into my punch, of course I almost warped my hands off but lets ignore that for now.
I had another idea to develop a 'mystic code' or as I called it, Rider add-on. The ability to use displacement magecraft, alchemy, fuck why is alchemy in this world so bullshit? The rules are so laxed... I mean I am not complaining but like, alchemy here is way too busted.
Ignoring my outburst, I created a 'card holder' and card book that are conceptually linked to my hands (for now). The card holder is made with the same material founded in the Gotchardriver to insulate magical energy to make it an entirely dependent net-zero internal system. One where that I merely need to hold up my hands for the card to appear. The card holder has a shifting mechanism that scans the cards based on a complicated numbering system requiring hand signals (slots for all 101 chemy that are said to exist in the leak) and is designed to shift between them in but a second before sending them to my hand via a conceptual link.
The card holder is the size of a cabinet for now due to budget constraint but one day I might turn it into a digital... Digital... Fuck I am turning them into digimons... Mother fucker am I turning Kamen Rider Gotchard into Digimons? Ur... NVM... And beside I would just create Avalon for them... When I can...
Now the card holder is slightly obsolete for now but once I get like 10 more cards its gonna be hard to do it... Plus it's called flexing.
Now for my final trick... Transmutating my own body via alchemical CRISPR. Tricky as no one really knows what happened and I don't have any test subjects.
But I can create a body for the chemy though so maybe that's something I can explore? High level Homunculi... Homunculus? Wait the 3 sisters how can they possess a chemy and turn into an amalgam? I mean the energy for that alone would require some sort of... catalyst, oh my god they are Homunculi that explains so much, they were created to exploit chemy and turn them into a monster. Shit
Project Einzbern is now a high priority
But that question many thing like how their soul... Nope the rules of this world are to laxed shit. Speaking of which wonder how the 'big bad' of this world is doing
[Ouroboros Realm]
"Fuck" Lachesis said as she felt her body come back to normal again. Ever since she fought him her body hasn't been the same... It turns out her internal structure was compromised and her computing process was overloaded, they had to do a soft reset on her. But the worst part was how her alchemical energy was messed up so badly it took several days to recover.
"Oi sis" Clotho said bored as the 2 girls turn to look at her "I'm bored of staying cooped up in one place, I am going to go play in the human world" she said smiling "I want to see just how strong this human is"
Lachesis wanted to warn her sister about how strong he's as she neglected to mention how he was holding back the entire time (partially out of pride) but Atropos merely said "Fine but if you were to be damaged then please retreat"
Clotho merely rolled her eyes as she took a certain chemy card
[Plot time]
As the robber threw his partner under the bridge (literally) he was fused with Skebow becoming the Skebow malgam as it then rampage around the city, stealing money
[Meanwhile at another place]
"Rinne-san your mission is to contain this new malgam, we have identified it as the Skebow amalgam, this should be relatively simple as it only is a level 2 chemy"
"Hai!" "Remember if things get to rough than call for backup or retreat and then enforcers from" "Don't worry Minato sensai, I got this "
'after all... Alchemy is the only thing I have against Houtarou' she thought whilst blushing
[Now]
Shooting at the malgam with Odorippa ability to push it back and cause slashes, she tried to protect what few surviving policemen there are as she shot a sewer grate at it. Knocking the malgam back she tried to call the chemy into its containment card but
"Oi bitch... Do you think I will give up on this power!" the criminal said as he used his sheer malice to pull back the chemy into himself and used the Joestar family technique as Rinne looked shocked... Well if she had time at least as she had to raise a shield to protect herself.
"Hoh? You are one of those alchemist eh?" a woman asked as Rinne eyes widened... This is Clotho, one of the dark sisters... She needed to call back up and retreat but the bystanders.
"I am going to have fun beating you" Clotho said as she smiled whilst Odorippa merely quiver inside her card holder as she tried to out alchemy her. However Clotho brute force broke through it until she got close to striking distance when suddenly the girl disappeared "Huh? What kind of alchemy is this?" she said turning around to see her opponent being princess carried by... Who she is assuming is Gotchard.
As Rinne looked up at Gotchard he merely putted her down as he told her "Stay right the-" "Kleave" "huh?" Gotchard asked as Kleavemantis materialized as the 2 girls eyes widened 'A re-transmuted chemy?' they have only heard about it of course. "Odorippa!" "Kleave" "Ah I see" Gotchard said as Rinne looked in shock "You can understand them!?"
At that comment Houtarou looked at her in shock "You really don't bother to understand them do you? How dumb, if you are going to make them your test subjects then at least try to understand them" he said before looking at Odorippa "Listen Odorippa, you can stay with her and go back to being a test subject forever or join me and gain power" "Odorippa!" Odorippa said before jumping to Gotchard hand as Rinne yelped.
Odorippa chemy card begun to shine as it begun to evolve into...
Odorippa evolve into Odoladdin! (based on Aladdin! Yep it's now basically the same only that it rides on a carpet and has red eyes and a face reminiscent of Kamen Rider W in fact the white is replace with green with fleck of purple on fans and scarf thingy on its stomach oh and its leaves resemble that of a W as well)
"B-B- Bwhah?" Rinne vocalized as she tried to figure out what happened... Like really what just happened? He just transmute a chemy into another form like it was nothing. "Alright" Houtarou said as he took out the 2 cards throwing it slightly into the air "Kleave! Odoladdin!" as he took out the cards in the Gotchardriver and sent them back to play around as he caught the card mid air and insert them in
Kleavemantis! Odoladdin!
Doing the Kamen Rider W henshin sequence this time baby!
Gotchanko! Odolamantis!
(On the rider wiki, just look up the Odorimantis form and just imagine it with instead of those hand blades they are replaced with a large rock axe with Earthy color, I like to imagine some thing like brown or something, as most of the green is darker with the silver being red whilst the scarf is the same light green with a purple tip. The drill on his legs are now much thinner and still the same color)
[Double action (Axe form) theme]
"I don't have time for this" I merely stated to Clotho as she laugh and took out a chemy and malgamate with it turning into the Flayrose malgam. Clotho then said "Now you do..." she laugh as I merely looked at her calmly before taking a pose and saying "My strength has made you cry" as I knelt down low
Clotho merely laugh as she shot fire out of her mouth to strike at me as I merely displaced it into the surrounding area as I walked toward her. For the special effect. She then tried to claw at me with her 'hands' but I merely grabbed them with my own as we held hands. I increased the power as she felt it, her hands being crushed
'What the? He's only using his hand yet they can produce this much power!?' Clotho thought as we enter a Baki explanation sequence on how bajiquan allows its user to channel 100% of their body power by using the ground as an anchor and thus even just a single finger has the force of an entire body with it.
Suddenly Houtaro raised both of their hands up as he warped the space on her hand to twist them off, try experiencing that bitch!
Clotho screamed as flame burst out of her mouths. Her arm turning into vines to reattach the hands as I merely grabbed her jaw and rammed her into the ground, as I felt her head crack the concrete I pulled back as hard as possible and freed Flayrose who begun to shine a bit... Not enough time, I need to chase the other corrupted Chemy (that's what our protagonist gonna call them for now) as he quickly manifest a carpet and flew
Rinne merely watched in awe as she looked down at her own ring
[POV switch]
'heh, running away once more! Fuck that nasty bitch, when I get my hand on her I will' Suddenly he felt something slash his back, it was like being hit by something blunt yet it cut deeply as he flew away.
Landing across him, Kamen Rider Gotchard walked up as the Skebow malgam retreated... Trying to run away once more yet Gotchard merely summoned 2 fans (Similar to what I described a while ago) as he threw them out - they flew gracefully as they struck at the Skebow malgam legs, severing it as it crawl.
Screaming in pain, it felt something grabbed its head... No dragging it as he was raised up to look at that monster face "What will it be? To beaten by my fist? Or my feets?"
He tried to beg "Wait! Please mercy! You're a hero right!? I will stop robbing and go to jail honestl-" suddenly it felt something touch its abdomen as it knew it... Its death but it heard one last sentence "Never said I was a hero..."
The skebow malgam split into the dead robber and Skebow. As Skebow was in place, Houtarou quickly grabbed him and calmed him down... The poor thing has been traumatized by what it did due to the robber.
Quickly kneeling down I comforted and hugged skebow. Saying stuff like "it's not your fault" and "it's alright you are protected"
To be honest, many many people will outright hate that I killed as a Kamen Rider but just letting someone like him walk free is a no go. This isn't a Tv show but real life. The memories of those involved will be covered up or erased as the only record is possibly of him just robbing a bunch of convoys. That plus Japan convoluted law system make it so that scums like him can walk free. Many Kamen Rider aren't willing to kill their enemy because they were once human... Much less if they're human... I am... I am willing to do it. From day 1 of my life I made up my decision.
Suddenly I heard someone behind me... Rinne (I really should give her that letter, but I kind of forgot it at home) "Wait! Who're you? How can you transmute chemmies like that... And do you know my father?" She said that last one desperately (? I think, it sounded like a demand)
"... My name is Kamen Rider... Kamen Rider Gotchard" I said as I saw several people wielding alchemy approach near me, their rings out as they said "Well then Kamen Rider Gotchard you're under arrest for - "
"Zip it douchebag" I said as I merely change myself to be conceptually not here
"eh? Where did he go" the enforcers said as I walk right pass them.
[Meanwhile back our villain HQ]
"So sis, you got beaten up eh? Guess his strength really did make you cry" Lachesis said at her sister as Clotho merely grit her teeth
"Oh make no mistake sister, he merely got the surprise on me, next time when I meet" before she finished, she spitted out some 'blood' as she coughed, her jaw still numb
Watching her 2 other sister, Atropos sighed as she decided that they would need to be more cautious of this... Kamen Rider Gotchard
[Meanwhile the Alchemys Union]
"I see... Kamen Rider Gotchard huh? What? Fuga Kudo? The traitor!?" an executive said as several amongst them whisper
"You are saying he just disappeared?" "Teleportation? yes..." "What he can transmute chemmies?" "What should we do?" "Send in our full force!"
"Gentlemen, I believe we are missing someone important" an executive shout out as she looks at the door, attracting everyone attention as Supana Kurogane walked in with his sword "Sup, I believe I have a solution for this... Gotchard"
Next time on Kamen Rider Gotchard
"I finally done it!" "I have something from your father" "Eh? Madwheel?"
Wow... Alchemy huh? Coach I do like to call bullshit
what kind of alchemy can do that?
Welp I took most of the inspiration from Type-Moon most importantly from the Ainsworth as they are the only family worth (get it?) a dime to study from. I came up with a lot of ideas for Houtarou to use outside of his Kamen Rider powers
Not Houtarou is merciless to his enemies... But he can understand them, and he did watch the entirety of the Kamen Rider series as well as Ultraman and supersentai so he knows that some kaijus and kaijin can be good. Also ultra violent today lol
Anyway, Houtarou is not omnipotent, he is peak human yes, but he can't remember or learn everything, it takes time. He will be OP yes and more OP in the future but unlike my other story, there is no challenge only stepping stones.
This is not my main fanfic but Trung since he wrote something similar to this
