No matter how difficult the challenge, he’ll smile and declare, “Leave it to me!” Since before, he could hear “devil’s whispers” but paid them no mind out of disinterest. However, his desire to protect people from a Deadmans attack made him pay attention to those whispers for the first time. After agreeing to a contract, Ikki can transform into Kamen Rider Revi.
