Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

"You guys should go to that world and wait for your friends first—Nani!"

The monster who was preparing to charge widened his eyes. His wheels, which were supposed to be extremely strong, suddenly exploded when he was about to sprint, and directly threw his huge body out.

A momentary flaw appeared.

It worked. There was no verbal communication, but the tacit understanding between them made their tactic of attacking the same place successful!

"Rosette!"

"Diamond!"

The monster immediately counterattacked. The combined monster with two minds stretched out its fists to the left and right, but the two were able to block each other within 0.05 seconds and were tied together and unable to move.

Why, even if we were to unite as one, we couldn't defeat the combined strength of the two of them?!

As if reading the confusion in the monster's eyes, Arisu offered his own response: "That's the difference in experience."

"We can now cooperate with each other even with our eyes closed!"

Raise your hands, and two heart-shaped bows and arrows will appear, triggering a completely different move from the previous one.

"Precure Diamond Blizzard!"

The arrow spread out from the bow and arrow, and the surface of the monster that fell to the ground quickly turned into diamond, fixing it to the ground, making it look like it was frozen.

It is important to note that diamond is a very strong yet brittle substance.

"Rosette Reflection Double Crashi!"

Arisu raised his hands and simultaneously created two barriers, but this time they weren't used for defense, but rather as a double blow like blunt weapons! The massive shields struck like two gongs and drums, bringing with them an unmatched force to pound down on the diamond in the center.

Huge cracks spread all the way from the surface of the diamond to the monster.

There was a huge and crisp bang. There was no monster or diamond anymore, only flying stardust in the sky.

"It's our victory, so let's go find Mana and the others next!"

At this moment, a black shadow jumped down from a height. The two men immediately became alert, but after seeing the face of the person, their expressions instantly became surprised and happy.

"Ash!"

"I originally planned to come here for more than just a look, but now it seems I'm no longer needed?"

The nonchalant Ash was soon surrounded by two people. The feeling of being stared at by bright yellow and azure eyes made him feel quite uncomfortable.

"is that true?"

"Could it be from memories, which are equally deceptive?"

"I'm sorry, but even in my memories there is only one Master Ash."

Seeing Ash pointing his thumb at them, the two finally smiled at each other, and their hearts were relieved.

After all, the people in their memories are not as hateful as real people.

"Really—" Rikka, with a complex expression, lightly punched Ash in the chest. Even though the girl was just angry and didn't really use any force, the constant reverberation in her body still made Ash cough and clutch his stomach. "You are so self-centered and inconsiderate. You only make others worry!"

I'm truly grateful that Mr. Ash is still alive.

"Mr. Ash." After the battle, Arisu maintained her ladylike composure and extended her arms with her usual smile. "Come~~"

"Huh?" What's this woman doing? Why is she doing that? I don't do that. "I don't need it...ah."

"I didn't ask for your opinion." With a sweet smirk, Arisu took advantage of Ash not transforming and gently hugged him with irresistible force, gently patting his back with his palm. "Welcome back."

"..."

Arisu, I'm serious, you're so nice.

"So Makoto, Aguri and the others have been saved, and we have defeated the enemy."

"That's right, the only thing left is Mana's side."

Ash turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped in time by Rika behind him.

"Wait, Ash!"

"What? If you want to say something, hurry up."

"Are you... okay? Are you back? If you're looking forward to our growth, then you don't have to fight anymore, right?"

Ash stopped when he heard this, and looked up blankly at the scene outside the screen.

After Angel's attack, he regained some of his sanity.

After Matthew's intervention, he also rediscovered his lost past.

But at the same time, he could still feel the evil surging in his body.

As for what's going on with him now? Is he still his true self?

"I do not know."

Ash answered honestly.

"Because I don't know, I'll leave your business after this incident."

Before that, we can't give the chance to defeat you to that white-haired man!

After saying that, Ash ran to the other side without stopping.

"Wait—" This time it was Arisu's voice that came from behind.

"You haven't apologized yet, so we haven't forgiven you yet!"

".....Tsk." Ash made a tsk sound with the corner of his mouth.

"It's really troublesome."

Just after coming out of Rikka and Arisu's past, when Ashu was about to go to Ai's past world, an expected guy blocked his way in advance.

"Get out of the way, good dogs don't get in the way!"

"Even good dogs can bite, Ash—you bastard, I will never let you disturb the beautiful world she has worked so hard to build again!"

Another beam of light, identical to the previous one, hit Ash in the chest.

Chapter 142 Inherited Love

Her lost relatives and beloved dog returned, but Rikka and Arisu disappeared from this world as if they had never existed. Ai almost immediately found herself trapped in the past.

Holding Xia Lulu who was sent here by Ash's "shot", she naturally wanted to leave this world, but Matthew always paid attention to her, and love could not escape from here.

Whenever she wants to leave, the warm past she lives in will be easily shattered like a bubble dream. Her beloved dog Marlowe died in a car accident, and her beloved grandmother's health deteriorated rapidly. Everything is just like when they left their love.

After these sad past events, the world will soon start a new cycle, as if saying to her, "Choose me and stay in the past." As long as you don't go to the future, painful things will not happen.

But now Ai is not so easily defeated. She always insists on not giving up, so such things keep happening again and again in front of Ai.

Over and over again, repeating over and over again.

Until I still couldn't find a way to leave the love, my heart was gradually filled with sadness and frustration.

She passed by Grandma and Marlowe countless times, but no matter the greetings from her relatives or the barking of her dog, she did not respond this time. She just dragged her zombie body back to her room.

"Mana, are you okay, Xia Lu?!"

"It's okay, I'm just... too tired." Ai, sitting on the soft stool, felt extremely exhausted both physically and mentally.

When she closed her eyes, Ai would think of the fact that in the real world, Marlowe and her grandmother had already left her and gone to heaven.

She even had a thought of not wanting to go back to the world where her grandmother and Marlowe were dead.

Just give up the future. After all, returning to the original world would be full of pain...

"Snapped!"

The sound of Ai Meng slapping his face with both hands scared Xia Lulu.

"I'm so willful and bad."

If Mr. Ash knew about my embarrassing thoughts right now, he would definitely be so angry that he would slap me in the face, right?

Now that I have finally seen the deceased again, what I should do is to live well with their memory!

"But how do we do that?"

Trapped in the beauty of the past, resisting the pain from the future, love falls into confusion and cannot find the way forward.

"Manna, can grandma come in?"

At this moment, a familiar, reassuring and gentle voice came from outside the door.

"Please come in."

Grandma and Marlo walked in together. They didn't seem curious about Xia Lulu's existence. Grandma sat opposite Ai and handed her a cup of tea, while Marlo sat at her feet and rubbed her ankles affectionately.

"Hoo---" After drinking the rich and fragrant tea in one gulp, the girl felt the pain in her heart greatly reduced. "Thank you, grandma, I feel much better now!"

"Why? I don't mind listening to my precious granddaughter's troubles."

"I..." Ai kept spinning the empty teacup in her palm, as if expressing her inner distress. "I finally got to see Grandma and Marlowe, but I can't stay here. What should I do..."

I clearly long for the future, but I don’t want to let go of the past. I am such a greedy and shameful guy.

Grandma smiled and did not answer the question directly. Instead, she told a story about the name "Love".

"When your parents gave birth to you, they hadn't prepared a name yet. It was me who gave you "Ai" and "Mana". Ai Aida was the one who named you." Grandma continued with a smile.

"To be able to lend a hand to those in need and to always be willing to move forward towards the future—that's what we expect of you. That's love."

Ai Aida gently stroked Malo's soft fur and listened to her grandmother's story.

"Love already has the answer to this question in its heart."

"Ah."

That’s right, although it’s not clear where Makoto, Rikka and the others are now or what they are doing, one thing is certain, that is, they will never abandon me!

Rikka and the others are waiting for me.

That person...Ash must be waiting for me too.

"I can hear you!"

Listen with your ears and feel with your heart.

Those are the footsteps towards the future and the heartbeat of hope!

"Then my granddaughter, you have to go, go to where everyone is waiting for you. Don't be sad about losing us, and don't stop for the good times in the past."

"We strive to live our short lives to the fullest, passing on the love and achievements of our predecessors to future generations. This is how humanity slowly grows."

Even though she knew her precious granddaughter was about to leave, for her future, the grandmother still smiled and waved goodbye.

"Go, and connect this love inherited to the future."

Picking up Marlowe, the dog's eyes showed the same loyalty to his master as always.

"Hmm—I see!"

When faith is re-established, the past will no longer be a nuisance, but a blessing for the future.

Ai's body began to glow and she turned back into Pretty Cure. Like an angel, Ai hugged her grandmother for the last time.

This time she didn't cry, she really felt the love that had always been connected.

"I'm going back!"

Return to the Pretty Cure!

“And then pass on this love that has been passed down to me to another person!”

Ash, wait for me!

"Hey, what's wrong?"

Ash opened his eyes standing at the door of his house, looked through the window at the dark house and smiled mockingly.

"Haven't you seen it all? So-called memories are useless to me!"

They're still doing these useless things. The villains in the Pretty Cure world are really stubborn~

However, Ash also noticed something wrong. After looking at the glass window, he found that he looked like he was 20 years old, which is what he looks like now.
