Thick inky clouds squeezed the sky, and the gloomy color seemed to be falling from the sky. Then it began to rain, starting with sparse dots the size of beans. The raindrops gradually became denser until the dripping rain turned into an unbridled stream falling from the sky.
The sudden heavy rain made passers-by hold umbrellas or run home quickly to take shelter from the rain. The sounds of people collecting clothes, holding umbrellas, beating children and doing nothing on rainy days could be heard everywhere. For a while, only a lonely girl walking in the heavy rain was left on the street.
The rumbling thunder was deafening, and the silver light that flashed across the sky instantly illuminated Yueying Lily's distraught face.
In the past, she was a Pretty Cure, and as [Cure Moonlight] (Moonlight Angel), she and her partner, the elf "Kolon", protected her city, Hope Flower Market, from the invasion of the alien "Desert Apostles", until today...
She lost, defeated in the battle with the enemy.
Not only was the "Seed of Heart" that served as her transformation tool shattered by her nemesis Dark Precure, but even her close elf partner "Kolon" died while trying to save her, leaving her alone to save her life.
Her weak body slowly sat down against the wet corner of the wall. Her wet dress stuck to her body in a very uncomfortable posture, but she didn't feel anything.
I lost! Even my heart seed was shattered, and I no longer have the qualifications to transform into Pretty Cure...
What will happen next? Will there be a new Pretty Cure to protect the world? If Dad is not found, will Mom still be alone?
And my Kolonta! Someone important to me has left me once again...
"Kolon... Ugh..."
Thinking back to when she was a Pretty Cure and fought side by side with her partner, being guided by each other, sharing sorrows and laughter, scenes of the past flashed before her eyes. Lily wanted to burst into tears, but the rain falling from the roof kept washing her face, taking away her tears.
The icy rain also washed away Lily's warmth, leaving her hands and feet numb and cold as ice. Having just endured a life-or-death battle, she was already extremely weak, and the sudden downpour nearly blew her consciousness away as well.
My body is so cold... so cold... I can't feel anything...
Am I going to die? Just like that, disappearing in the rain...
"sorry......"
Yueying Lily closed her eyes.
Then the rain stopped.
The sound of rain was still pouring down, but no more rain fell from overhead.
“Hello, hey—!”
Who is calling me....is it you?
The person swept aside the hair that was stuck to her face by the rain, revealing her haggard yet beautiful face.
The warmth on her face made Lily open her eyes.
She saw a man in a black waiter's uniform standing in front of her, holding an umbrella to shield her from the falling rain. The man's dark eyes met the girl's frustrated "amethyst" eyes.
"you...."
"If you fall asleep here and catch a cold, no one will care about you."
It all started from that day.
Destiny has begun.
[Notice]
The scorching hot sand cannot drown the strong and delicate flowers.
The devil's sweetness makes the leaves of flowers wither.
The devil in his heart has awakened, the flame of judgment is burning fiercely, and the place where Ash is going is still hell.
This is the town loved by legendary warriors: Hope Flower Market.
But no matter whether it was hope or flowers offered, they were incompatible with Ash. He was still searching for the forgotten destiny on his journey.
Today too, and tomorrow too.
If you can only find a moment of peace after a battle, then let all your passion burst out. If the sun cannot shine after the rain without the storm, then Ash will be the reckless wind that sweeps away all the haze.
Ahead lies a journey without regrets. Will the arrow finally hit its target, or fall to the ground in dismay? Like a tennis ball bouncing off the net, this is a realm known only to God.
However, it is not the dice cast by God or chance that determines his fate, but a young girl who has reached the point of endurance and will reveal the answer to the eternal mystery in the corridors of time.
Perhaps only the withered and then blooming flowers are the sharp arrows that shoot at the vital points of God.
No matter when or where, the warrior who forgets love is still loved by others.
Volume 2: [The Flower of Hell That Never Blooms]
There is no land where flowers bloom in Ash's heart.
ps: This chapter is a free trial reading of the new volume, and there will be a 3K chapter 26 later
Chapter 1 The day everything officially started
Tonight, Hanasaki Rei had a strange dream. It was no longer the tragic vision she had before becoming Pretty Cure, about the purple Pretty Cure being defeated by the black Pretty Cure, and all the flowers on the "Tree of Heart" withering in an instant.
It was in the endless darkness, with evil scarlet eyes staring at me as I was lonely and helpless. I wanted to escape but found myself stuck in a huge web. I struggled hard but was stuck even tighter.
Just when she was at a loss, a dark red spider crawled over from the other end of the web. Spiders are extremely scary arthropods for girls, not to mention that this spider looked like it could swallow her small body in one bite.
Lei was almost frightened. The spider approached her step by step. The huge shadow completely covered the helpless girl. She was like prey in a hunter's trap. She struggled desperately even if it was in vain.
“No, don’t…”
"Who, who will——"
Who come and save me!
"Whoa-!"
Waking up from her sleep, Lei grabbed the edge of the quilt and gasped loudly in fear.
"What's wrong, Lei? I'm so sleepy..."
She was not the only one sleeping on the bed. As the Pretty Cure's partner, the pink and white radish-like elf "Siflei" heard Lei's scream, shook her petal-like tail, and flew into the air swayingly.
Rubbing her round eyes, the half-awake Siflei saw the girl in front of her with her long cherry-colored hair scattered in front of her. She was immediately frightened awake from her half-asleep state.
"Ghost, ghost!"
"Ghost...Ghost!?" Hearing Siflei's voice, Lei, who was also not very courageous, was also frightened. She was originally curled up in the quilt, but her soft feet suddenly straightened up because of the fright. In a panic, she wanted to turn on the light in the room, but bumped her head on the bedside table.
“It hurts so much!”
"Hey, so Lei hit her head because of this."
On the way home from school, the blue-haired girl who was walking side by side with Lei circled around Lei who had hit her head twice, and out of curiosity she reached out her hand and couldn't help but touch the top of her head.
"That's it... It hurts, Erika, just say it hurts!"
Embarrassedly covering the small swollen bump on her head, Lei looked at her friend who usually acted without knowing how to control her strength with a slightly resentful look.
Feeling her friend's "resentment", Erika Kurumi, who was full of energy, laughed it off and apologized repeatedly.
"But Erika also had that dream, right?"
The reason why Lei was so sure was simple: Erika had the same dark circles under her eyes as she did.
Lei's guess was right. After her friend reminded her, Erika couldn't help shaking her shoulders when she thought of the big spider in her nightmare that scared her so much that she screamed and almost peed her pants. Then she immediately straightened her chest and pretended not to care.
"Humph, that's just a dream. I'm already a super powerful Pretty Cure. Not to mention Spider, even that Desert Apostle's cadre Spider Carjeel can be knocked away in one blow!"
"Erika is bragging." When no one was around, the blue and white radish-like elf "Cofrey" came out of the student's backpack and started to ridicule.
"Last time, when I kicked it, someone grabbed my foot and hung me up and beat me."
"Ah, what did you say?" Unexpectedly, her partner ruined her performance. Erika grabbed Cofla's ears and shook them. "How... How can you call that a beating for Pretty Cure? I fought him bravely, but I still persevered despite being defeated. Next time, I'll definitely knock him away!"
"Let go, it hurts!"
"No way, who told you to talk nonsense?"
Seeing the daily quarrels between the two naughty guys, one big and one small, Hanasaki Rei and Sifre both giggled.
That's right, Hanasaki Rei and Kurumi Erika, they are not only students of the private Mingtang Academy in Nozomi City, they actually have a secret identity that even their parents don't know.
When the desert apostles attack and try to turn people's "heart flowers" into "desert monsters" to destroy the world, they will, with the help of their partner elves, transform into pretty girls of light (precure) guarding the Hope Flower Market and protect the world!
The two who took over the role of Pretty Cure from the previous defeated Cure Moonlight are not only comrades-in-arms, but also relatives and friends in life. As the saying goes, "two people are Pretty Cure"!
“Ah, someone!”
Cofla, who was playing around, sensed the presence of the others and quickly hid in a backpack with another one. The girls also discovered that there was a new store on the road after school.
The girls curiously walked into the alley that seemed to have been built overnight. Lei curiously looked at the five-colored windmill inserted in front of the store, and looked at the small sign at the door of the store.
“Colorful....”
"Rei, this isn't it!" Erika patted Rei's shoulder and pointed to the large sign hanging on the door. "This is Na...La...Na."
"It's Café Nascita, which means the birthplace of Italian."
"Really!" Erika, embarrassed by her limited knowledge, waved her hand and interrupted Rei's explanation. "I'm not as smart as you, Rei. Anyway, let's just call it Nasta Café!"
“It’s a transliteration…”
"Dingling~"
The door of the cafe was pushed open, and a man in a waiter's uniform walked out. His eyes were fixed on Hanasaki Rei, who was startled and hid behind her friend with only her head showing, and Erika, who was acting as a human shield.
"buongiorno." Not seeming too surprised, the black-haired man leaned forward slightly and greeted the two girls with impeccable etiquette.
"I'm Ash, the manager of this Nasta Café. I recently moved here and opened this place. You look like locals, so please be kind and give me your guidance."
"Oh, hello, I'm Erika Raimi."
"Ah..." After staring at Ash's face for a while, Lei suddenly realized that he was talking to her and quickly bent his head. "My name is Hanasaki Lei! I just moved to Hope City recently. I'm currently in Class 2 at the private Mingtang Academy. My favorite thing is flowers--"
"bud--"
It was not until her friend whispered a reminder and poked her soft spot with his arm that Lei realized what she had said in a series of words and then she closed her mouth with a red face.
"Are you two planning to have a meal, or come and have a drink at my restaurant..."
"No, thanks. This idiot and I were just passing by." Erika, who suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of crisis, pulled Rei, waved goodbye to Ash, and walked towards the departure direction.
"Then you are welcome to visit us next time."
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Ash rubbed his chin and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Pretty Cure... If I remember correctly, she's the one who makes me happy."
Not long after, another lady came from the other end of the alley. Seeing the new person, Ash took off his apron and handed it to the other person.
"Well, Lily, the rest of the time is up to you. I'm going to go find something that makes me happy."
Yueying Lily, who was already used to it, took the apron and put it around herself. Seeing that Ash was particularly happy today, she couldn't help but say something.
"As a store manager, you shouldn't be interested in slacking off and having fun. Instead, you should focus more on your work."
"You're wrong, Lily." Ash turned around and shook his index finger at the girl. "My work is my hobby, and my hobby is my work."
"is it?"
"Of course. Did your brother Ash ever lie to you?"
Facing the strange light reflected when Lily lifted her glasses, Ya Xiu said in dismay.
Lei kept looking up at the sky all the way. She was distracted and almost fell into the ditch twice or three times. She didn't even respond to Erika calling her name.
Seeing her friend's reaction, Erika was stunned for a moment before a look of understanding appeared on her face.
"What's wrong, Lei? You just chatted with someone for a few words, but you're already imagining a sweet life with them, or have you even thought of a name for your child?"
Erika's sudden words in her ear woke Lei up from her distracted fantasy. After hearing what her friend said, Lei's face quickly turned a bright red.
Sweet life with a handsome guy Hehe~~——No! No! Lei, what are you thinking? No!
"No, no, no, no, that's not happening! Sweet life and all that is just wishful thinking. What are children? It's too early to even think about that!"
Lei's face instantly turned red like an apple and she tried to refute incoherently, but her appearance made her rebuttal seem very unconvincing.
"Erika, what weird things are you talking about?"
"Because the store manager named Ash is a very handsome guy." Erika, who already understood the situation, began to explain.
"After all, Rei has no resistance to handsome boys. How do you say it? It's called being a nympho." Erika smirked, poking Rei's cheek, which had become increasingly soft due to shyness, and continued to tease her friend. "Last time it was the student council president, right? He fell for the capable and handsome President Mingtangyuan, but when he found out he wasn't a boy but a girl, his heart was broken on the spot. Hahahahaha, oh my, I'm dying of laughter!"
"Mo~~~~!" Lei, who had finally lost her patience, puffed out her cheeks and swung her two soft fists at her friend. "I hate Erika the most because she always laughs at me. I'll hit you!"
