As soon as Ash took out the seal of sin from his pocket and waved it in front of Wu Mu, Wu Mu rejected him before he could say anything.

"What a bummer..." Chanchan took back the seal, but in fact, Ash had no intention of giving up, especially when he saw Wu Mu's serious look at this moment, an "evil plan" quietly formed in his heart.

"Okay, that's all for today~" Ash patted his butt and was about to get up and leave when his clothes were pulled. When he turned around, he saw Wu Mu handing him a lunch box.

"What does this mean?" Ash couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw what was in front of him. If he remembered correctly, the Pokémon was probably hidden in the lunch box. If you offered it to me at this time, I would be very disappointed... Oh?

He opened the lid of the lunch box and saw octopus sausage, egg rolls, fried chicken nuggets and stir-fried green vegetables paired with rice. When a full lunch box appeared in front of him, he admitted that he was very surprised.

"Because Mr. Timmons always takes the lunch box my mom gives me, so..." Wu Mu was a little embarrassed after handing over the lunch box, but finally mustered up the courage to speak out with a slightly blushing face. "So I thought I should prepare one for you too. This is the lunch box I made myself, and that one, I hope you like it."

"Oh, ah, um." After hearing what Goki said, Ash blinked and was stunned for a long time before responding. "Well, to be honest, I didn't expect this. How should I put it, um... Anyway."

"Thank you."

Ash scratched his smooth chin with his index finger, and before Goki could say anything else, he turned around, took out a silver box, let out a rope from it, and swung away.

“Left…”

Seeing Ash's departing back, Wu Mu's voice was partly relieved and partly regretful.

"Okay, you can come out now."

Wu Mu pretended to be relaxed and let out a long sigh. After exhaling the foul air, he spoke to the empty space next to him.

The bustling traffic beneath his feet, the blue sky behind him. Sitting on the edge of a tall building, his feet dangling in the air, Ash gently opened the box and, holding the cutlery specially prepared for him, picked up a piece of the egg roll and dropped it into his mouth.

“…”

Things with bland taste are equivalent to nothing to my taste buds, but when the egg roll enters my mouth, it seems like something else is melting on my tongue.

"It's delicious... maybe."

Chapter 64: The Upcoming Layout

The bento was "delicious", but what was a bit unfair to Wu Mu was that he would not change the thing he was going to do next, which was a little unfriendly to her.

"After all, if you want a seedling to thrive, besides water and sunlight, some 'fertilization', which represents stress, is also necessary."

Putting the empty lunch box on the edge of the roof, Buid dialed the number of the cafe on his mobile phone.

"Rei? Oh, it would be convenient if you and Erika were together."

"I found Poppy's whereabouts here. She's in the city hospital. By the way, she's currently with your friend named Goki."

After putting away his phone, Ash leaned his face towards the screen and put on the mask with sound and image blocking function again. The corners of Ash's mouth, which had been hidden all this time, finally bent almost to his earlobes, revealing an extremely sinister expression.

"With that, the actors are all here."

He opened the corner of his jet-black dress and pulled out from the lining a seal that emitted a black aura and was obviously different from the ones he had used before.

"Just right, it's time for me to try it out... The fun is about to begin."

"He's gone, Poppy, you can come out now."

A corner of Wu Mu's backpack was opened, revealing a soft and cute light yellow bun-like head. Popley, who had her head poked out, looked around carefully, just like an FPS player who was afraid of being shot in the head by someone from nowhere. She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until she was sure that Timmons had really gone far away.

"Thank you, Wu Mu! It would be terrible if the Desert Apostles found us!"

"That's it. It's just a piece of cake." Although he felt a little guilty about deceiving "Mr. Timmons", when he took out the soft Poppy from the backpack, Wu Mu's face was almost melted by the cuteness when he saw the soft elf like a doll.

"Poke, poke~" She couldn't help but press the elf's face with her index finger. Feeling the softness from her fingertips and the feeling of her fingers sinking slightly, the soft girl's heart was about to burst out.

Shortly before Ash arrived, Itsuki, who was accompanying his brother in the hospital, saw Poppy flying in crying. Although he was a little surprised at first that the doll could talk, he didn't mind it because it was cute.

The man and the elf exchanged names and started chatting. Then Popley suddenly said that she sensed an evil aura approaching, so she asked Wu Mu to help her think of a solution. In the end, it was Wu Mu who helped her escape by hiding the empty lunch box in his backpack.

"I also heard what Goki said before!" Poppy flew up so that her eyes were at the same level as Goki's, and there were twinkling stars in her big eyes.

"Itsuki is so cool when he says he wants to protect others. And it was him who helped me this time. He's so strong and gentle. I've made up my mind!"

Someone who wants to protect others and become a source of strength for them, doesn't that exactly match what the store manager said?!

Poppy shouted happily as she pulled out the perfume bottle and the golden heart seed from her bosom.

"It's decided, Goki, you'll be the third Pretty Cure!"

"Hey, me?"

Although she had long guessed that elves like Poppy should be related to Pretty Cure, when she heard the other party's invitation and looked at the transformation device in her hand, she still felt it was completely unreal.

However, when he thought of the pink and blue girl group he had seen before, Wu Mu's expression was instantly filled with infinite longing.

"Ah~ Can I become that beautiful too?"

"Itsuki will definitely become even cuter!"

After all, the clothes that Pretty Cure wears after transformation are, to a certain extent, changed based on the transformer's yearning for beauty, so it is natural that they will become the most suitable cute clothes for them.

"Ituki——"

The girl's call from a distance interrupted Itsuki's fantasy. Seeing his friends Erika and Rei rushing over, Itsuki hurriedly stuffed Poppy under his clothes.

"Wuki, have you seen...what is this!" Before she could finish asking the question, Lei widened her eyes and swallowed the next sentence. After all, as the student council president of the person she once had a crush on, she was actually pregnant in the hospital. It was too shocking for a girl like Lei who was a little thin-skinned.

"Ah, you said this is——"

"Okay, we all know." Erika, who had already received insider information, slipped over to Itsuki's side and poked her shoulder with her elbow with a teasing look on her face. "Popli is with you, right?"

"So you already knew it." There was nothing she could do if she was exposed. After Wu Mu took Poppy out of his arms, the bigger Sifley and Coflay immediately jumped out from behind Lei and the others, and patted her on the head with their soft hands, looking disappointed.

"Really? You actually ran out in excitement. Do you know how worried we are about you? What if you were caught by the Desert Apostles?"

"I'm sorry..." Popley felt a little aggrieved, but did not refute. After all, she was almost caught by someone.

"But, because of this, I've found my target!"

I want Goki to be the Pretty Cure, it must be right!

"Lei, Erika, what are you doing?" Seeing the two elves flying out from behind his friend, Goki's brain didn't react for a while, but he instinctively figured out what was going on.

Lei and Erika looked at each other, and saw the puzzled look in each other's eyes.

There was no way. Although I wanted to hide it, the truth was already in front of her, not to mention that Itsuki seemed to be already familiar with Poppy...

"Maybe we are what you think, Goki."

"Eh—Rei and Erika are actually Pretty Cure?!"

When he really got the affirmation from the two, Wu Mu still felt a little dizzy and unbelievable.

"That's right, and Gomu, please agree!" Poppy flew back to Gomu's side and rubbed her forehead against the girl's soft cheek. "Then Gomu can join us and protect the tree of our hearts together!"

"Protect the tree of kindness..."

When Wu Mu heard this, her eyes suddenly dimmed, and then she turned to Poppy and shook her head.

"No, I'm not qualified to be a Pretty Cure."

"Eh, why?!" Not only was Poppy extremely surprised by the rejection, but even Lei and the others were surprised by Goki's decision.

After all, who could actively turn down the possibility of becoming a Pretty Cure?

"There are many things I want to protect, and I've tried my best, but..."

Wu Mu thought of his brother who was still worried about himself, and also thought of the man wearing a mask.

Even though she could sense that they had some sad "existence" hidden in their hearts, she could only watch and could do nothing.

After all, she is just an ordinary human being.

"Perhaps, I simply don't have the power to protect myself."

“Crack—!”

The loud noise coming from above interrupted the girl's sorrow and attracted everyone's attention. When they looked up, they could see a dark shadow breaking out of the window of a ward.

Looking at the broken window, Wu Mu's pupils shrank slightly.

Wait, that room is—

"elder brother!"

Wu Mu turned around and ran towards the room desperately.

Chapter 65: The Devil's Temptation

With all the curtains drawn, in the dimly lit room, the overly handsome face of the man sitting on the hospital bed was almost completely filled with fear.

Even though we know that the success rate of the operation is very high, it does not mean that the bad consequences after failure do not exist. At this time, the eldest brother of the Mingtangyuan family: Mingtangyuan Gao became more and more afraid. He was about to undergo surgery and cold sweat kept falling from his head just thinking about this fact.

But besides simple fear, there were other emotions echoing in his heart.

My sister has finally made the change. If I can successfully perform the operation, she and grandpa will be able to put their minds at ease.

Obviously, as the eldest brother, I have to set an example - but why, why have I become so timid!

For some unknown reason, Mingtang Yuangao thought of his childhood when he always took his sister to bask in the sun in the backyard. At that time, he told his sister that no matter what difficulties they encountered, they could always solve them with full energy as long as they basked in the sun.

"By the way, if you want to bask in the sun..."

He opened the tightly closed curtains, but what shone into the room was not the sunlight he had imagined, but the shadow cast by a man.

"Yo."

Ash opened the window nonchalantly and jumped into the room.

"You, who are you?"

"Me? Who knows?" Ash waved his hand exaggeratedly in his borrowed Parseltongue. "Sometimes I don't even know who I am. Maybe I still haven't figured it out. Regardless, just think of me as a passing demon."

"Devil?" Mingtang Yuangao felt a little uneasy, but unexpectedly he did not sense any malice from the other party.

"Yes, that's the villain that often appears in novels and animations, the demon that lures people into signing contracts and leads them step by step into the abyss through the principle of exchange."

"I have nothing to trade with you, demon!"

"Really?" Ash walked over and gave him a gentle push on the chest, sending him crashing to the ground. "But your body doesn't seem to be saying that."

"Goo..."

Meeting the fearful and slightly unwilling eyes, and seeing the fish taken, Ash took out the strange seal from his arms with a businesslike smile, and quietly stuck a small dot emitting a faint red light on it.

When touching the seal, the Universal Adaptor unexpectedly played a role at this time. Ash blinked and actually saw a slightly withered flower through the other person's body.

Is this what is called the flower of the heart... Then what color is the flower in my heart?

"No need to say anything. I know you don't want your important sister to worry, and you're afraid of even worse consequences."

"And in that case, why don't you try other means?"

"I..." Mingtang Yuangao was unsure when he would take the strange seal. Suddenly, something unexpected happened. The seal in his hand, along with his grasping hand, floated up automatically and landed forcefully on him.

"what--"

With a scream, dark and desolate energy spread out from his body, turning all the equipment in the ward and the debris on the bed into dust. Ash reacted quickly and rolled out of the window, escaping with half of his hand hanging on the edge of the window.

"There is no separation. Is it a higher-class desperado... No, not a desperado." Ash raised his body and looked at the changes in the room. He saw that what was happening in front of him was not the situation when he signed a contract with the devil. The other party's body shrank into a bunch of flowers wrapped in crystal in a beam of dark light, and then slowly expanded into the shape of a monster, which was very similar to the birth of the desert monster.

"With the combination of the two techniques, I'm afraid I'll have to call you a Desperado Desert Oddity."

In fact, there is indeed a relationship between the two. After all, he just asked the other party to use this "seal". After he lent the Seal of Sin to Dr. Shabak, the other party restored the seal with the ability of the Desert Apostle after research. It is obviously a pirate version, but its ability is probably even better than the Seal of Sin.

"Timmons, your power is indeed very powerful, but the Lord Doon who gave us the power is far more powerful than the devil."

That's what Shabak said at the time, so he asked Ash to secretly remember him.

"That's right, Duane..."

If it weren't for him, there would be no need for me to go around in circles seeking help from a boss I've never met, and end up doing such a thankless task.

As a monster of Kamen Rider Levis, when the desperado's class reaches the conditions, it will establish a connection with the big boss itself and gain very good abilities. Yashu took advantage of this, and then with Shabak's hand, he changed the position of Kiff to Dune on the seal, and prepared to get a glimpse of the other party.

Dr. Shabak wasn't the leader of the Desert Apostles; the alien being named Doon was the pinnacle of the organization. According to intelligence gathered from his colleagues, decades ago, Doon had engaged in an incredibly fierce battle with the previous Pretty Cure, Rei's grandmother. The result was Doon's exile back into space, while Rei's grandmother was depleted of her powers, losing the ability to transform and fight.

Originally, Ash didn't take the other party seriously at all. He still remembered the final BOSS he encountered in the previous world. He killed it without any pressure when he teamed up with the pink Pretty Cure. After all, if the BOSS was just used as an opponent for the little girl, how strong could it be?

But his intuition told him that this was not the case at all. Based on past experience, if he didn't even trust his own intuition, he would be close to death.

So he prepared this to test both "Pretty Cure" and "Duane".
