Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

"What are these?"

"What's there to complain about?" Not caring about Arisu's ugly face, Ash raised his hands and proudly showed her his newly built new evil base. The price was some small money "donated" by the dark organization and two cadres who were exhausted.

“Oysters don’t oysters….”

"Mo Yada..."

Even though they were enemies in the past, now seeing these two villain cadres being captured to work and being repeatedly tortured by the unreasonable demands of the client, Ash, to the point of almost losing their souls, Arisu couldn't help but feel sympathy for them and felt pity for them from the bottom of his heart.

And the result of their efforts is the splendid new look of the entire base...how can I put it?

Wherever Arisu's eyes moved, there was nothing but golden glitter and golden glitter. The super golden glittering style that totally disregarded the home decoration and the overall look made Arisu, who had a normal aesthetic sense, unable to bear to look directly at it. It was an unbearable look in the literal sense, because the light that was turned on and flickered along the golden reflective surface made it difficult for Arisu to open his eyes.

Those who know understand that this is the base of the villain organization, while those who don’t think it is the personal collection of some wealthy Middle Eastern dog owner.

"Um, Mr. Ash, I'm sorry to ask, who did you learn this decorating style from?"

"Are you still interested in this?"

Sitting on his own brass throne decorated with more gold, Ash, quite satisfied, supported his chin with his hands, crossed his legs and tried to recall the past.

"A certain demon king told me that. He told me that if I don't know how to decorate it, I can just pile it up in gold."

Gold is indeed a noble color, but it is obvious that his friend did not tell him that excessive decoration is unrefined, and Ash does not think that too much gold is tacky at all.

"Mr. Ash's circle of friends... is really wide."

After thinking for a long time, Arisu finally came up with a neutral and less offensive word.

"Of course." Ash accepted her "compliment" as a matter of course. "The friends I know can walk hand in hand all the way from Earth to Helheim!"

Although the enemy's words are probably twice that amount.

"But Mr. Ash, how about you be a little more restrained considering what others have said?"

"It's not that I should restrain myself, but others should know how to avoid my limelight, understand?"

Arisu, who was forced into the role of complainer by the lady from a noble family who never spoke much, covered her face with her hands and exclaimed that this person was really hopeless!

Arisu naturally wouldn't say anything about other people's unique aesthetic tastes, but she couldn't stand another thing. Even though she was a captive now, she had to say it out!

"Mr. Ash!"

Arisu took the receipt for Aishu's purchase from Mamo and studied it. His expression became even more grim.

"Why are these furniture and decorations so much more expensive than the market price? Did you only buy the most expensive ones?"

After studying the bill, Arisu discovered that everything he bought was indeed the most expensive "deluxe version", which is the kind that merchants use to deceive the unscrupulous customers. The deluxe version has some unnecessary functions and is half the price of the regular version. It has absolutely no cost-effectiveness!

I didn't notice it before, but now Arisu realizes that this person spends money lavishly without any plan, which can be called the ultimate waste.

Counting the game consoles such as "Hard Drive", "Human Hell", and "Lockne" that he had asked the two to collect from the market, Ash scoffed at Arisu's words.

"You're such a fuss today, Arisu."

Because, we can't just sit back and watch Ash's bad habits! Of course, Arisu won't say this, otherwise he won't know what kind of teasing he will do to her.

"What you said doesn't matter. Money is just a number to me."

Thanks to the "donation" of some kind-hearted (adult) organizations, in the inventory with no stacking limit and grid restrictions, the reserves of gold alone are as much as ten tons.

If he really runs out of money, Ash can just copy a design drawing of the new energy used in Shocker or Destrom's transformation surgery. Then it won't be a question of money, but how many people will voluntarily give him money.

"Even if you have money, you can't spend it carelessly. After all, Ash, you don't have a formal job. By the time you spend it all—"

Arisu's preaching came to an abrupt end, because Ash directly opened a corner of the inventory to show her his small treasury. It was not only precious metals, but also all kinds of unheard-of treasures that made people itch just by looking at them. The rich woman was silenced on the spot.

"Do you understand? When you have this level of wealth, it would be a real waste if you don't squander it."

"No, Ash, I must teach you about saving and finance!"

Seeing the reserves Ash showed him, Arisu made up his mind instead.

This person must be taught this knowledge. Otherwise, not only will the entire world's economic market be disrupted because of his personal actions, but I will also feel guilty just watching such a large amount of money being squandered!

Even if I can't change him now, at least I should correct his wrong ideas from such small things!

"You are my prisoner now. You have no right to make demands on me."

Faced with Ash's usual all-purpose excuses, Arisu also responded with his own attitude.

"Then I won't cooperate with the sparring you want."

At worst, I won't transform, and you can just beat me to death.

"Qi, you troublesome woman. You are such a frugal lady even though you are a young lady."

“It is precisely because we have money that we should learn to save money.”

Ash glared at Arisu in displeasure. If he had known earlier, he would have taken action against Makoto or Rikka first.

But then I thought, it would be more interesting if she dared to talk back to me.

In fact, he was also aware of Arisu's little thoughts and actions. He was actually deliberately indulging himself to see how far he could go.

Rather than being weak and vulnerable, he prefers the courage to resist his own "strength".

"But it's precisely because of this trouble that it's more interesting." Pinching Arisu's smooth chin and making him look up at him, Ash also grinned.

"To make me happier, just keep following me."

"Please don't make decisions so casually!"

I'm not here just to entertain you, I'm here to make you—

Ash, ready to start work, sends Arisu somewhere else. This time, he wants to create the enemy unit that will be used in the next game - his own selfish monster.

That's right, after obtaining a large amount of evil energy and seemingly unlocking a certain limitation in his heart, he can now create the selfish monster, a specialty of this world, just like those cadres.

However, he did not learn from the selfish organization cadres to look for the spiritual hearts of others when their selfishness expanded to infect them into selfish monsters. Instead, he relied on the powerful monster-making skills he had learned from observing in the team and the film studio, and combined with the injection of evil energy, he created a pure selfish monster that did not need a spiritual heart, but had even higher functionality and power - the Selfish Monster Plus.

Ash discovered that the monsters in Guangmei's world were actually similar to the unit monsters that often appeared in the Sentai world. They might not be the opponents of ordinary Guangmei in terms of hard power, but the special abilities they actually possessed were extremely terrifying. They could usually directly affect the entire world in various ways, and many of them even reached the level of controlling the laws, which was actually terrifying.

So this time, Ash had already selected the special abilities of the selfish monster that matched his game. While listening to Makoto Kenzaki's singing on the player, he implanted a special function into the monster.

“People will remember the first person to climb a mountain or eat crabs, but they will not remember the second person, even if that second person was only a few seconds late.”

"So when the opportunity presents itself to the latter, what will he choose?"

I am looking forward to it?

After finishing his creation, Ash leaned back in his chair with a smile, closed his eyes and listened to the song in his ears.

"What kind of dream is on the other side of this sky?

I believe in an endless future and reaching out my hand.

“It sounds pretty good.”

Ash opened his eyes and set the song as his phone's ringtone.

After all, you might never hear it again.

Chapter 99: The Second Game Begins

“Cough cough.. cough cough cough…!”

"Is everything okay, Makoto?"

In the Pigtail Pavilion, facing the concerned looks from others, Makoto waved her hand to indicate that her problem was not serious.

"It's okay. Maybe I caught a cold outside these past two days. I'll take some medicine when I get home today."

"really?"

Ai doesn't believe what Makoto said, because as an idol, it is impossible for Makoto not to care about her body. Even if she neglected it herself, how could her agent not care?

By the way, the agent responsible for the idol Makoto is her partner, the elf Darby, who has transformed into a human form. Because of the oppressive feeling brought by Ash, the other two elves are also working hard to learn the ability to transform into humans from Darby, but the progress is slow and there is still a long way to go.

"It's okay, cough cough cough——"

Makoto's originally heavenly voice became deep and raspy, and Ai couldn't help but feel a pang of pain at the sound.

She had already lost one friend and didn't want to see another one suffer.

"Actually, Makoto's voice started to fail the day she announced her retirement, right when she started preparing for the press conference," Dabi the Elf suddenly explained. "Makoto kept feeling like there was something in her throat, but when she went to the hospital for a checkup, they found nothing. Then her voice got deeper and deeper!"

This is so weird, it's like someone is stealing Makoto's voice!

"Darby—cough!"

"But, Makoto, you can't keep hiding your love for them, it's such an important thing!"

"But I don't want everyone to worry about me at this time."

Faced with Ai and Rikka's looks of genuine concern, Makoto felt a little embarrassed and shy.

"So, besides Arisu's matter, now we also need to find Makoto's voice."

"That's what we say, but we don't know the specific reason." Liuhua's suggestion naturally supported Ai Ai, but even as smart as she was, she couldn't figure out how to recover the sound. "We're not doctors, if we don't have any clues..."

"In that case, how about I tell you some clues?"

"Thank you so much." Hearing the familiar voice behind her, Ai subconsciously greeted it with a smile, but when she realized who the voice belonged to, she was so scared that she screamed out loud.

"Mr. Ash—!"

Not only her, but also Rika and Makoto beside her were startled by the sudden appearance of the man. Their faces changed drastically and they immediately became alert, grabbing their partners who had transformed into transformation phones and ready to fight at any time.

"Hey, Guian~"

Ash, who was carrying a lot of bags in his hands, raised his finger frivolously and greeted the three people.

The things in Ash's hand were bought by Arisu, who said that he wanted to buy some really practical things according to the bill she gave him. Originally, Ash had no intention of coming out, but Arisu persuaded him into coming out. By the time he realized it, the things had already been bought.

After repelling an attack from a housekeeper who vowed to take back the young lady, Ash passed by a familiar store and saw a familiar person when he pushed the door open.

"Ash, are you preparing to—ah, what are you doing?!"

Rikka was wary of the approaching Ash, and just as she was about to transform, Ash snatched away the half-eaten omelet rice in front of her for lunch.

Seeing the scene where Ash was showing off his fandom without blushing or getting angry, the three people and three elves were all stunned, as they had never expected that there would be such a shameless person.

Having her lunch taken away, Rikka was extremely anxious, embarrassed, and annoyed. This guy is really super annoying!!!

"What are you doing here—ahem!"

Makoto wanted to scold Ash, but the harder she tried to speak, the more painful her throat felt, and her originally powerful voice became weaker.

"What am I doing here?" Ash slowly began to explain, swallowing the spicy egg roll in his mouth. "I'm here to inform you of something."

"It's time for a new game. This time, I've come to explain the rules to you. As the other party, the selfish monster is also ready."

Selfish monster!

Hearing this name, the Pretty Cure girls were all shocked. After all, the selfish monster was their main enemy. They didn't expect that Ash would do such an excessive thing as wantonly extracting other people's souls and hearts.

"Have you completely sided with the Selfish King?"

The disappointment in the girls' eyes was evident. They had never expected the man in front of them to have fallen to such a state, but Ash refuted her statement the next moment.

"No, this Selfish Monster Plus is my own creation. Compared to the inefficient Selfish Monsters that need to pollute other people's spirit hearts, its performance is 1000% that of the former!"

Besides, I am now the boss of the selfish organization, and the title of King of Selfishness is a thing of the past.

"Don't confuse a genius like me with the vulgar people you met before. This is my game, and I don't need a game master other than me!"

He opened his phone in front of the girls, and on it was a picture of Puls, the selfish monster that Ash mentioned. Compared to the various short, fat and tall mascots that the girls had fought before, this selfish monster was only life-size, but its body shape was more human-like. Compared to the rounded shape of the selfish monsters in the past, the spikes and sharpness all over its body made the girls feel that this time the enemy might be a very scary guy.

Compared to the monsters the girls had encountered before, it would be more accurate to describe them as weirdos.

"As a clue, let me tell you something." Ash slowly raised his hand and pointed at the bewildered Makoto. "Her voice isn't due to a physical problem, but rather to this selfish monster slowly taking it away."

"What!?"

Ash's words stirred up a huge uproar. They hadn't expected this outcome. Did Ash actually do something as extreme as taking Makoto away, just for the sake of a game?!

Love is a little hard to imagine, not only because Makoto is her good friend, but also because Makoto is a highly anticipated idol. It is impossible for her not to sing!

My voice...was taken away by Ash?

Makoto herself found it difficult to describe her feelings. She bit her lower lip and glared at the irritable Ash. She never expected that he would do such a thing to her.

Sure enough, was the idea that he wasn't that bad just an illusion?
