Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

"You win this time."

Lei subconsciously caught the thing thrown by the other party, and when she looked closely, she was surprised to find that it was all the heart seeds that had been taken away by the other party before.

This...this time, it's so simple! ?

"What are you doing? Why don't you beat down—"

"Because the battle has become boring, but I'm looking forward to the next one." He pointed at the desert monster standing still next to him. "This thing has already awakened my heart, so it's useless. Let's go."

“Damn it…”

"Oh, right." Before leaving, Ash suddenly turned around and stared at the purple girl with all his compound eyes.

"I'm looking forward to the day you mentioned."

"Lily-chan~"

Until the other person completely disappeared, Lily sat on the grass, gasping for breath, as if she had lost all her strength.

Wait, this guy... knows my name?

After defeating the enemy and retrieving the seeds, the other two girls cheered and clapped their hands while turning their attention to the desert monster that was left behind.

"Sister Lily, thank you for your help!"

"I didn't do anything. The credit this time is all thanks to you." Lily walked to the side of the girls, bowed slightly, and used her green fingers to wipe off the dust on the girls' faces. Looking at these younger generations who had become reliable, Lily's eyes were filled with infinite tenderness.

“This time, you did a great job.”

Everything is expressed in their silent smiles.

--------

In the coffee shop, Eddie, with a flushed face, knelt down in shame in front of a group of girls who were younger than him.

"I really am. I'm so sorry!"

Chapter 58 Become a hero!

"Wait, wait, Mr. Eddie, please don't do this!"

"Don't stop me, I really did something unforgivable and stupid!"

Having someone who was much older than them kowtow to them and apologize was something that Lei and the others had never received such a great gift before, and they felt very uncomfortable. However, no matter how they asked him, he didn't seem to want to get up.

"I didn't realize you were actually Pretty Cure! You are the real heroes of this world!"

Eddie knelt on the ground without any explanation, and now he felt extremely ashamed.

He was clearly prepared to defeat evil, but ended up turning evil, causing trouble for the local heroes, and even had to be preached to by them before he finally came to his senses.

How useless, shameful, and weak! How can I have the nerve to call myself a SCSO soldier?

"I've caused so much trouble for everyone because of my own messing around—I don't have the face to go back to see the Commander anymore!"

So Eddie closed his eyes and made up his mind. Under the girls' astonished gaze, he raised the Dragon-Slaying Sword, pointed it at his own stomach with his backhand and pretended to stab it.

"Now that things have come to this, only death can wash away the evil deeds I have committed!"

Before he could actually stab them, Lei, Erika, and the other two elves quickly cried out and used all their strength to hold his arms in place.

"Wait, what are you doing—what the hell are you doing?!"

"Don't stop me! This is a tradition of this country anyway. I'm just following the local customs!"

"You're totally blind to this feudal dregs. Wake up!"

"Mr. Eddie, everyone makes mistakes. The important thing is to admit them and correct them!" Lei, almost fed up with his unreasonable behavior, shouted at him. "So, I think it's really bad to give up your life just to avoid the responsibility of correcting your mistakes!"

"Dang Cang——"

The sword fell to the ground. Lei's preaching made Eddie even more ashamed. He couldn't even cover his sword. Ash, who was wearing a butler's uniform, appeared behind him at some point. He raised the tray in his hand and knocked it on his head, making a crisp sound.

"How dare you talk about seppuku in front of a bunch of girls and my staff?" Ash, with a look of complete disdain on his face, banged on her again, until she cried out in pain, then he took the tray away. "If you want to commit suicide, do it yourself, find a deserted spot. Don't spill blood in my shop."

"I......"

Feeling the sting of the contemptuous gaze, Eddie lowered his head and scanned everyone present, finally stopping at Yueying Lily, who seemed to always have a calm expression. As if he had made up his mind, he walked over with the Dragon Slaying Sword and the key box.

"Well, I heard your conversation when I was still a desert monster..." He tilted his head to the side, now somewhat afraid to meet others' gaze. "Ms. Yueying Lily, you were once a hero protecting this world, but you've lost your abilities."

"That's right, but now that I have a reliable successor, I don't need to—?"

Lily, who had originally decided to reject Eddie no matter what he said, was stunned when she saw him presenting the Dragon Slaying Sword and the key box with both hands.

"In that case, please—please accept this and become a hero once again to protect this world!"

“Eh—!?”

As soon as Eddie said this, the two girls and the elves couldn't help but let out exclamations of surprise that were almost dropping their jaws. Even Ash didn't expect him to do this, and he couldn't help but want to see what would happen next.

"I lack the performance and qualifications to be a hero. Now, facing the enemies of this world, even if I were to use them, it would only bring shame to their glory."

"Instead of bringing disgrace upon yourself, why not—why not let a true hero like you use it!"

As if he had used up all his strength, with tears in the corners of his eyes, Eddie lowered his head and said words that denied the past and tore his past into pieces.

That's all I need...

Since I can't do it, then give the opportunity to others, to those who can do it... In this way, I can be said to have helped the world a little.

Lily looked at the cold sword in Eddie's hand. She could feel the magical power contained in the sword. As long as she accepted it, she would indeed get a new opportunity.

As a time traveler, Eddie's behavior of giving his things to others for such a reason is indeed contrary to the conventional itinerary of time travelers.

But in the end, Lily closed her eyes, and under everyone's gaze, she pushed the sword in front of her back to Eddie.

"This isn't my stuff."

"W-why, is it because of me..."

"That's not right." Ash walked over and spoke Lily's words. "This sword of yours was entrusted to you by the person you admire, right? If you simply give it to someone else, wouldn't that be like mocking that person and saying they were wrong?"

"No, that's not the case!" Seeing Eddie's blushing face, Ash knew that he was right to use the commander to provoke him.

"Since you feel you're not good enough yet crave recognition from others," Lily said, pushing the shimmering Dragon Fencing Sword back completely. Lily patted the Magic Dragon with a firm, encouraging gesture. "Then keep working hard to become a hero worthy of this sword."

“I…I…I…!”

Eddie, holding the dragon and fencing, knelt on the spot, tears of regret dripping onto the wooden floor. But even with tears falling, his back was no longer as embarrassing as before.

"Really, really thank you! I will definitely not give up!"

Even if I can't become a hero, there must be something I can do!

"Well, drink this cup of coffee and cheer yourself up."

"Manager." Seeing Eddie hurriedly accept the coffee, Lily was speechless about this guy who would recommend his "product" every chance he got. "You clearly know that the coffee you brew has—"

“It’s delicious—!”

The man's cheers interrupted Lily's unfinished sentence. Busily wiping her tears, Eddie couldn't wait to drink up the remaining half cup of coffee in front of the girls' horrified gaze.

"It's delicious! I've never tasted anything so delicious!"

What is this? This stimulating taste, this feeling of Mars hitting the Earth on the tip of my tongue, it's amazing! I've lived for so long, and this is the first time I've tasted something this delicious!

"Ha, there are still people with vision in this world!" Seeing Eddie's dynamic tears continuously falling, Ash, who originally disliked Eddie, saw his favorability towards him increase tenfold or even ninefold.

"Boss—ma, another drink, please!"

"Okay!"

Seeing Eddie who was so touched and Ash who was so happy, the girls didn't know what expression to make for a moment.

“So there are people who really like that coffee…”

"Someone likes the manager's coffee, and the heart seeds have been collected. Isn't this a good thing?"

After hearing Erika's relaxed summary, Lei stopped worrying about it and instead enjoyed the leisure time after the victory with peace of mind.

After all, when the retrieved seeds were placed in the special spiritual pot, everyone saw the sacred light emanating from the pot and shooting straight into the sky.

In this way, the tree of heart will regain its vitality, and our Pretty Cure's responsibilities will be further enhanced!

I don't know how many meters above the cafe, there is an island floating on the clouds, suspended in the air. On the island grows a towering tree. At this moment, countless bright spots of light begin to gather from the branches and leaves of the tree, and finally converge on the trunk, emitting dazzling light.

The light lasted for several minutes before slowly calming down. Where the light gathered, a small rustling sound began to come from the tree hole of the big tree.

"Hmm~?"

A small figure popped out from the cave, with a bow-like light yellow hair on its head. The soft and cute white radish, which was very similar to fairies like Siflei, stared with big watery eyes, looking at this new world curiously.

Chapter 59 The Third Elf

"So, this is the tree of heart you mentioned, Xiao An?"

Using the Vulture Seal that he had recently drawn along with the Scorpion Seal, Timmons flapped his steel wings behind him and flew through the clouds to the side of the Dark Pretty Girl who was also flying in the sky.

Ash's eyes under the mask couldn't help but look at Dark Pretty's chest. Don't get me wrong, none of the Pretty Cure breasts he had met so far were larger than A. None of them were in his strike zone. Even this created Pretty Cure was of an extremely pitiful size. What he was looking at now was what was held in the other person's arms.

"︿(￣W￣)︿" Kain was held in Xiao An's arms with a look of enjoyment on his face. His face was full of comfort and enjoyment, and he seemed to deserve a beating. The teasing eyes he cast at him from time to time seemed to say "This is the happiness that only you can enjoy~" Ash took a few deep breaths to calm himself down and then lowered his blood pressure.

Calm down, Ash, calm down. That's you. There's no need to be hard on yourself.

Be patient, be patient...be patient, as the saying goes, if you are patient, you will have a bright future.

Yoshi, I’ve made up my mind. I’m going to [self-review] this thing when I get back!

"Dr. Shabak discovered the Heart Tree's reaction the day before." Glancing at Timmons, who was gazing rudely at her chest, Anmei continued. "The Heart Tree is a collection of human heart flowers. It's also the source of energy for Earth and Pretty Cure. We must eradicate it."

"Yes, yes." Ash answered absentmindedly. Fortunately, Anmei was not the kind of person who cared about appearances, so she didn't hold on to his casual attitude. Instead, she continued to explain the mission while stroking Cain.

"After I found the tree this time, I was almost able to put an end to it completely." At this point, An Mei clenched her fists, as if still reeling from her last battle with the Moonlight Angel, she wasn't able to completely end it. "But at the critical moment, a golden shield blocked my attack, and the Heart Tree disappeared from here."

"I'm afraid the newborn fairy used his power to protect the tree."

"Fairy?" Ash immediately became interested when he heard the word mentioned. "Hey, fairies can do this kind of thing."

After all, in Ash's impression, the fairies around Pretty Cure are useless except for providing transformation props and being cute. Not to mention compared with the Ultramen of Showa, they are not even as good as the defense team in the Heisei Ultraman. At least they can scrape the monsters before crashing.

"Elves can grant humans the ability to transform into Pretty Cure. Our goal this time is to find and kill that newborn fairy."

Stopping her hand that was stroking the demon, the Dark Pretty Girl turned her gaze to Ash.

"Pretty Cure and everything about them are what we must defeat."

"Of course, that's my goal too! After all, I have quite a grudge against them~" Ash clapped his hands repeatedly, looking like he was irreconcilable with Pretty Cure. "What I hate most is people like Pretty Cure who act like they're some great savior. They must be defeated, hard!"

That's right, I have to keep defeating them so that I can grow into the person I expect.

Ash once calculated that the more dazzling the hero he fought, the more benefits he would get, such as the miracle caused by the Pretty Cure in the previous world.

Even though that memory has disappeared with the transformation of the dark echo, Ash can still clearly perceive that it is the existence that once changed his essence, which is why he is now madly pursuing it.

No matter what, I want to see that miracle again.

"But, Xiao An, you said you wanted to find a new fairy. Where are we going to find them?"

"..."

An Mei didn't say anything, but just looked into Ash's eyes with her exposed single eye, and everything was self-evident.

"Stupid boss!" Cain, feeling a bit painful from being strangled in the other's arms, quickly waved his hands for help. "I'm a girl, boss, think about what happened last time, you should take the initiative!"

Ash blinked under the mask, feeling inexplicably unhappy.

Ha, take the initiative. Why should I take the initiative? But never mind. Since it's Kain who said so...

"Xiao An, I think we can have a date like last time again..."

"If it's for a mission."

Ash was confused for a moment when he saw Kain collapse on his chest and gasp for breath after the other party let go of his arms.

Ah, is that all?

Women...I don't understand.

However, if a new fairy appears, I can find a chance to let Lei and the others know. If I find it, I can bring it back to them on the way.
