Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

When she said this word, Miyuki's memories were unlocked at this moment. She became worried as she remembered something, and her eyes quietly looked at the bookshelf by the door.

Yes, now I remember that I also have an appointment that I haven’t fulfilled.

Chapter 189 If you can’t do it, then let me believe him!

Pushing the books on the bookshelf in a specific manner, Miyuki opened the light door in front of her and came to the Incredible Picture Embassy.

The Incredible Picture Embassy is connected to the concept of bookshelves, so it collects all the books in the world, and Miyuki is also looking for a book.

"It's not here...will it be here?"

As Miyuki was about to walk to the other side with her heavy body, a book that was slightly protruding from the shelf caught her attention. It seemed that someone had put it there.

"Ah, found it!"

To her surprise, she found the picture book she was looking for, "Smiling Nicole", next to that book. After taking the two books down and placing them on the table, she opened the first one.

"Nicole, who loves to smile, taught her quarrelsome animal friends the importance of getting along with each other. Under the influence of this cheerful girl, the animals, who were once always unhappy, also smiled along with her."

"However, the dragon, who hates smiles, captured Nicole. Without her friends, Nicole began to feel depressed."

After the latter part was torn off, the story ended abruptly in tragedy.

I remember when I was little, I made a promise to myself that I would write a happy ending for Nicole in the story, but I couldn't write it well at the time, so I gradually forgot about it...

Perhaps because she could relate to the story, Miyuki now felt a bit empathetic towards Nicole in the story.

Yes, I loved reading picture books as a kid, and that's how I learned from them that a smile can be so powerful. Just like that little girl with the fairy in the mirror, Nicole was also my first friend... Hehe, if I treat story characters like real friends, Ash might laugh at me if he finds out. But what does it matter? Isn't Kamen Rider also a character in a story?

I love both the story and the characters!

So she took out a piece of paper and a pen, and Miyuki began to write the rest of the story along the torn part at a speed that even surprised herself.

Perhaps because she has been through so much now, Miyuki has many wishes that she wants to write down.

At some point, a girl in black with wing-like twin ponytails walked up behind Miyuki. She looked exactly like "Nicole" in the picture book illustration, and she smiled as she looked at Miyuki who was writing furiously.

"You kept your promise, Miyuki!"

The fairy girl in the mirror, the brave girl in green, the dusty maid, and countless characters from Miyuki's favorite stories stepped into the real world, smiling like old friends who had known each other for many years, quietly standing behind him and looking at him.

The magical light induced from them flowed towards Miyuki, silently nourishing her extremely weak body, but Miyuki, who was now concentrating, did not notice it at all.

"Just like that, Nicole touched the dragon's heart with her smile, and in the end even Mr. Dragon became her friend and a knight who swore to protect her, and so everyone lived happily together!"

Miyuki's face was filled with a happy smile as she wrote the last sentence. I can't help it, this is exactly me! I feel a little embarrassed to write this.

Opening the second novel, Miyuki noticed that it didn't even have a title or author's signature. Was it unfinished? However, she recognized the handwriting; it was exactly the same as the name in Ash's notebook!

But without too much hesitation, Miyuki began to read the story in the novel.

"This is the story of a man named Ash, who left behind in a brand new world."

"As a human being, Ash has always been in the dark. Everyone who sees him hates him and says he is an evil person destined to destroy the world and ruin all that is beautiful. But he doesn't care. Instead, he always does things that go against his image."

"What's hard to understand is that he's pursuing heroes and light, even if it means getting burned. He's willing to do all this effort because this is what he truly desires, or what he loves most."

"Ash loves the existence of heroes more than anyone else!"

Miyuki's heart sank as she realized that this book was actually about Ash's story.

"When Ash arrived in this new world, he saw the future he least wanted to see. The hero would lose, and the evil ones would win. How could this be possible? The hero must win perfectly in the end!"

"Since this future is so bad, let me change it to another ending!" He thought so, and with this decision, Ash was willing to once again become enemies with his favorite heroes.

"But deep down, he longs for a hero to finally defeat and convince him... After all, only a hero can do that, right?"

Is that so? Is that what you thought at that time?

Miyuki took a deep breath and turned to the next page of the story.

-------

The weather in Qiseqiu City has been really bad recently, with continuous gloomy thunderstorms that seem to melt everything in the cold rain.

Now, everyone in the quarry outside the warehouse was soaked through by the heavy rain, except for Princess Sunny. Warm but not scorching heat surrounded her, who looked like a princess and an angel. The humid water vapor evaporated, forming a rainbow-like halo around her.

However, Cure Beauty was clearly standing in front of her, but when Yuhua kept patting the back of her trembling hand, she felt as if all the warmth in her body was taken away.

She just felt cold, colder than the ice she could turn into.

The rain slid down her wrist and condensed into an ice sword, which knocked away the dark sword Yue'an hanging over Qian's head.

"Xia, don't be silly anymore--" Lihua immediately came up with a second move and pointed at Ash who was slowly raising his head.

"Now Ash, we're no longer friends!"

My life motto is to find my own way, and Ash also taught me this. So, in order to avoid Ash turning into a "bad guy" again and doing more wrong things!

It would be better if I could just knock him down here!

"Ah ...

After this, Ash, who was originally down, suddenly went crazy and attacked randomly again. The stabbing ice sword blocked the falling sharp blade, but it shattered before it could block for long.

Yayoi was still patting her head slowly as she woke up, and Zhi beside her was completely stunned. Both sides were friends, and her hands were shaking so much that she didn't know which side to help.

Looking at the chaotic battlefield in front of her again, Akane bit her lips and tasted the sweet and fishy taste on her tongue. She rushed out, ignoring the scars on her body caused by the two of them, and lowered her body to hug Ash's waist tightly.

"Ash, you can't fight anymore now!"

"Xia, get out now!"

"No, it's not Ash's fault that things have turned out like this! If you have to accept it, it would be too much to let Ash bear the rest of the pain!"

No matter how intense the outside world was, Qian's eyes became vague as blood flowed down her forehead.

"His body is already in tatters! And his heart... Ash is such a formidable warrior! That's why he fights so hard! He just wants to change the future with his own strength, and he won't stop!"

What the hell am I doing... I'm actually falling out with my best friend over a guy, and I'm even saying some weird things to avoid a worse situation. Isn't that stupid...

"Aoki Reika! You're not the only one suffering. We, including the kind-hearted part of Ash, are also suffering from this thought!"

But there's nothing we can do, right?

I want to do this, okay, Ash?

"Ash must be fighting his own battle in his heart right now. If you, who used to be so close to him, can't do it, then now-"

"I'll trust him!"

Sensing the violent struggle in her arms, Qian looked up to see his lifeless, bloodshot eyes, and the sword he held high above his head, about to fall. Qian, however, refused to let go, letting her hair mix with the blood on his chest as she clung to him even tighter.

"Ash—!"

Chapter 190: At the center of the world, the voice of love is calling out! (4K chapter)

When Ash's heart was exhausted in the series of battles, the sudden surge in the power of the Dark Sword caused a direct impact on the nerve center through forced prediction, which he could no longer control.

Completely possessed by the instinct of struggle, he had transformed himself into a beast and couldn't even tell who was who in front of him. In particular, the extremely tempting "fear" emanating from the blue-haired woman who looked fierce but was actually weak attracted his long-buried "desire".

I want to fight her, I want to completely crush her mind and body... Yes, she must be my enemy now, so it’s right to do this!

His move forward was hindered by the mud. Looking down, he saw that it was a strange color that slowed down his movements. He could smell the sweet and sour aroma of the "orange" in his arms, which seemed to be shouting at him. Was it a provocation?

Then, defeating you as an enemy as well should be the right thing to do...right?

The dark holy sword will once again taste the bitter taste of blood. If no one can stop it now, then another tragedy will surely be added to the list of tragedies...

"Brother!"

The brilliant yellow splashed tiny crackling sparks in the rain. Kise Yayoi pounced forward, but her delicate palms tightly wrapped around Ash's armpits, and she hugged Ash's back tightly like a koala in the wind and rain, preventing the sword from falling.

"No, brother-sama—you are not that kind of person. You have always been the most powerful hero in Yayoi's heart!"

The huge force tried to break free from Yayoi's hands several times, but Yayoi tried desperately to prevent him from escaping, until the girl's arms were sore and finally opened her mouth wide, biting the back of Ash's neck with her white teeth.

My dear brother, the heroes in stories always have to go through various difficulties as a way of growth before they can defeat their enemies. This may be the same for you. I always believe that Ash can do it, so uh uh uh——

"Please! Wake up like a hero!"

"Yayoi!" Lihua made a sound of complete disbelief. She could understand, but it was hard to believe. "You too—?!"

Even the timid Yayoi who always hid behind Akane and me when she encountered scary things in the battle could go to this extent to trust him?

The ice sword in Lihua's hand suddenly seemed to weigh ten thousand pounds, and it was difficult to hold and seemed to be about to slip out of her hand.

"I'm sorry, Lihua—!"

Just as Reika was still dazed, a gust of wind brushed past her, lifting her princess-cut bangs. It was Midorikawa Naoya, who was with Yayoi and Akane. Naoya grabbed Ash's hand and, with all his might, leaned towards him, forcibly blocking his movements.

This time, even though she had been with him since childhood, he did not stand beside her.

"Let go, let go!"

"No, no, at this moment, Yayoi, I absolutely won't let you go no matter what!"

"If this is the only way to make a miracle happen, then we will do it!"

"That's right!"

Although Zhi was still confused and couldn't figure out what was going on, he was also extremely "clear-headed." Whether it was when he was the only one by her side and didn't leave, or when they had a meal together like a family, in the face of these proofs, Zhi, who had established his consciousness, closed his eyes.

"If you were willing to believe me in the past, then I'm willing to believe you this time too! So don't let me down!"

Whether it is for gratitude or responsibility, or I just want to do this with everyone!

"Clap."

The crystal clear emerald blue ice sword slipped from Lihua's hand until it fell to the ground and shattered completely. In the humid air, like crystals of light dust, the scene of the girl kneeling on the ground with a collapsed expression was reflected.

I just don't want to repeat the tragedy that happened to Miyuki, so I want to do the right thing... Obviously, I also want to believe in Ash.

Can this kind of thing, right, also be wrong? I...

So what am I doing?

The feeling of loss that came from watching something important slip away from her without her even being able to catch it, and the regret that suddenly came over her almost tore her body apart from the inside out.

"Ash!"

The clear and spiritual voice finally arrived, coming from the other side of the mist leading to this place. When she called out the name, Ash, who was running and struggling, stopped in the air as if pressing the pause button, and turned his ferocious and bloodshot eyes in her direction.

The rain seemed to be gradually subsiding.

After feeling the movement in their hands gradually disappear, the others also let go of their hands.

Stepping into the gradually decreasing rain, Hoshizora Miyuki, still in her hospital gown, approached with small splashes of water step by step. Under the worried gazes of the others, she stopped fearlessly in front of the pair of eyes that were only maintained by instinct.

It was as if she had no fear at all, or was not afraid at all. All that could be found on the girl's face was a pure mood.

What Ash kept seeing were scenes of them attacking and even killing him. Under the high-intensity repetition over and over again, the so-called reality and illusion lost their meaning in the face of the constantly unfolding future, so he kept on violently resisting, and instinctively wanted to kill everyone who appeared in front of him in order to protect himself!

But, for some reason, when that pink-haired girl who seemed to be incapable of anything broke into his world, those bad ends that only contained pain began to disintegrate and dissipate on their own, causing his "instinct" to become stagnant at this moment.

Her appearance was like bringing an attractive light to this world that was originally filled with darkness.

It felt like... she was the only one who would never have the possibility of hurting herself, even in the infinite future.

Walking up to Ash, looking at his haggard face and exhausted body, Miyuki couldn't help but reach out her hand to him.

"That's too much..."

The bad end disappeared, and the prophecy of the future also disappeared. What appeared before him was only the innocent worry on the girl's face, so innocent that even the "Dark Sword Yue An" could not understand it.

Gently taking the girl's hand and pressing it against his face, Ash made a sound that sounded like he was in a trance.

"Tell me what you saw."

"Dark Sword Yue'an didn't tell me anything."

Miyuki knew what he was talking about.

That's what it said at the end of the second book she opened in the library.

"Endless battles, endless journeys. Ash's originally empty heart seemed to finally be filled with the affection of his friends along the way. However, this satisfaction made him feel painful. The satisfaction it brought made him lose his own motivation and desire. So he was extremely uncomfortable because of his own satisfaction."

"Even though we were together and shared this pain with him, he was still lonely and imperfect. Now he feels extremely guilty for the consequences he has brought."

The moment I read this, it was like every time I read the story of the little match girl freezing in the snow. Miyuki burst into tears and was so moved that she could hardly contain herself. At that moment, Nicole behind her also handed her a handkerchief.
