Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

The elves transformed by Pope turned around and flew towards the bottom of the tower. Now they were ready to put Ayumi in a safe place first.

"This isn't your fight, Ayumi. You're just an ordinary girl. You have no obligation or reason to throw punches at your friends. This is too sad."

"You've done all you could for him, and you can rest in pride."

The girl slowly raised her head, her eyes completely blank. Joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, love, hate, and countless other complex emotions flashed through Ayumi's amber-like eyes like a meteor, just like him...

"Stop, let me down!"

But her heart never changed.

"No, Ayumi, at least wait until we land. It's too dangerous for you now!"

"Then I'll go by myself!"

Completely ignoring the extremely astonished expressions of the three women who were blocking her from behind, Ayumi let go of her hand, turned around, bent her knees, and leaped into the tower. She crossed the ravine below her feet that was difficult for ordinary people to cross, and flew towards the route above that had not yet collapsed.

And in her pocket, the broken coin and the remains of the transformer were trembling slightly.

Like the fluorescent light in the night sky, it flickers and emits a little light.

Chapter 95: Dreams, Desires, and Grasped Wrists

"I...I really did it."

Sometimes, only after completing something will you realize how great a thing you have done is, like Ayumi Sakagami now.

From Lihua and the others...leaving behind the exclamations of Pretty Cure, she actually climbed all the way to the top of the tower, which was already as big as a pineapple!

Now, as she stood by the railing and looked down at the shrinking world from a height, her heart seemed to be purified and her usual fear of heights was gone.

only...

"..."

She raised her head and gazed towards the blue sky again, gazing at the vague floating island above her head, which was so far away that even the clouds could not be seen. Knowing that a great war was breaking out there, but unable to see anything, the girl could only reluctantly stretch out her hand towards the sky, trying to grab something, but slowly tightening her hand.

"In the end, you still can't catch anything..."

Just as the girl was feeling lost, a crisp "click" sound came from the railing where she was leaning. It turned out that a crack had already appeared behind the corner of the tower where she was standing. The girl, who had no time to react, fell down with her eyes wide open along with the broken structures.

"Ah."

Reckless behavior will eventually lead to a price to pay. Chasing dreams is, after all, about chasing dreams...

"Hey, Ayumi!"

When the girl, exhausted from the continuous blows, was about to give up, the voice of the boy who was familiar to her sounded from in front of her.

"Wake up! What are you doing? You're going to die!"

Amid the whistling wind around her, Ayumi, with her twin ponytails and the corners of her clothes blown upwards, saw his pale hand rising up to grab her collar.

"Ash...A?"

However, Ayumi knew that the real A had returned to herself, and the image in front of her was nothing more than her own imagination that she had invested too deeply in.

Am I dreaming of a revolving lantern now...If so, why does he only have one hand?

"Forget it, I... I can't do anything more..." Perhaps it was the image of A with only one hand in her imagination that made her laugh, the girl, with a surprisingly relaxed expression and no fear of death, smiled with relief. "I've tried my best, but it still doesn't work. I guess I'm not a Pretty Cure."

"This has nothing to do with Pretty Cure!" It was rare for Ayumi to hear the usually easygoing man's somewhat angrily scolding voice. "Whether you transform or not, you are still Ayumi Sakagami, not anyone else!"

"So, A, what about you?"

"I don't care." The owner of the hand wiggled his fingers one by one as he said. "Compared to the other Ash who couldn't get what he wanted, I already got what I wanted—"

Is that what you think?

Since I was a child, I have always moved around to follow my parents who changed jobs frequently. Even the friends I just made at school would soon become separated... Gradually, I became often alone and did not dare to make new friends.

It wasn't until later on that Miyuki and the others took the initiative to become my friends... But at that time, I didn't know they were Pretty Cure, so I always felt like they were hiding something from me, which made it impossible for me to join their circle...

Until A, you appeared in my world like a sudden falling "meteor".

You were so annoying at first, yet you became so reliable and skilled that I wanted to rely on you. As a friend, you were always there for me, even when you complained about me, giving me a sense of security beyond loneliness. As a partner, you opened the door to the right path for me, letting me experience the joy of fighting with mutual support, and letting me dream of becoming a Pretty Cure.

So even for such a short time, you are still a very important person to me!

"But..." The girl's tears flew upwards with the wind. "Aren't you still, just disappearing like that?"

It just disappeared like that all of a sudden. What should I do?

You—don’t you want anything more?

"Heh... Honestly, just having you by my side in this short life has already fully satisfied my desires."

A is probably lucky enough to meet you.

If you crave for more, wouldn’t that be too greedy?

"Also, do you think I really disappeared?" The owner of the hand suddenly asked Ayumi.

What...what do you mean?

"You didn't become a Pretty Cure because you found the Transformation Device and met me. It's because you were the one who transformed, that pure white form, that you can be called a Precure." He poked her chest with a raised finger, piercing every word. "You've always had the right answer in your heart."

"But I'm just a half-baked Pretty Cure, not the truly beautiful, kind, and correct legend—"

"You don't have to be ashamed of this, you should be proud of it!"

Because you have done something worthy of the name of this legend!

After stopping her tears, the girl saw the other girls approaching on the ground with anxious eyes, as if the long conversation before was just a momentary fantasy.

"Ah-A! Where are you going?!"

Seeing the hand gradually flying upwards after separating from hers, Ayumi screamed and wanted to hold it back.

"Unlike me, you have other people who care about you, and there are still many hands to hold, right?"

Just as he said, everyone on the ground, whether it was Yayoi, Akane and the others who were his friends, or other girls who he had only met once, all raised their hands high and wanted to catch Ayumi.

"As long as you try hard enough to reach out, you should be able to grab anyone's hand. That's how they respond to you. Isn't that how your world and mine are connected?"

“Ayumi——!”

Everyone’s voice can be heard!

"You ran all the way up the tower, not just to say your last words to the person you imagined in your dream before you accidentally fell from the building, right?"

"You are now. What you want is already within your reach."

There's no doubt that I'm proud of you.

"Half of my wish has been fulfilled, what about yours?"

"I...I have it too!"

I want him to understand my true feelings!

I want to be with A, Ash!

"Then, believe in me and believe in yourself! Go do what you want to do, Ayumi."

A said his final goodbye to her.

Ayumi swung her hand upwards with all her strength and finally caught that hand, squeezing the two coins that flew out of her body and broke into two halves tightly in her palms.

"I failed to protect you, A... But I never regret holding your hand that day." The debris of the Transformer that flew out of her pocket transformed into light and gathered on her outstretched hand. "I swear, this time must be different!"

I don't know why Ash had to fight them in the end——

So, I will stop this meaningless battle!

When many Pretty Cure girls below showed extremely surprised expressions.

From the girl's palms that were raised high, infinite light spread over her entire body, dyeing her with her own true color!

"I will never let you die!!"

It was as dazzling as the gold in her eyes.

It is bright and pure like the white in her heart.

And the pair of six-winged wings behind her that were moving, gorgeous, and as perfect as an angel, yet seemed as if someone was placing them on her shoulders, dyed in pure black.

Chapter 96 Please convey that emotion, Cure Echo!

Kamen Rider and Pretty Cure thought of many possible outcomes for this duel, either victory or a draw, but there was only one possibility -

Ash and the others looked in amazement at the pure white figure who was blocking them with his hands, their faces full of disbelief.

Not only was her appearance unbelievable, but the power in her hands was even more unbelievable.

Six pure black wings pressed down the weapons in the hands of both parties with a force as if they had a tremendous amount of power to prevent them from moving forward. The hands supported on both sides of the chest resisted the inertia and separated their final blows.

But this ending was something no one expected.

"This is really..." Countless thoughts and ideas merged into a complete logical chain in Ash's mind. After figuring everything out, Ash's face, once filled with astonishment, seemed to curl up into a satisfied smile. "Interesting."

Ayumi...should I say, I'm relieved?

"Yes—" Miyuki, who looked more and more familiar, called out her name directly. "Is it Ayumi?"

But how could that be? They could clearly sense that the blonde girl before them, though similar to the one they had mimicked using the transformation gadget, was two completely different beings.

Now, she seems to have the whole world inside her body. She is truly a Pretty Cure!

The holy light that erupted from the girl pushed them to the side, and now the blonde girl pushed the other four people back by herself.

"What kind of power is this?"

The man who hit his waist sat up from the ground with his back supported by his grimaces. The power that Ayumi unleashed in an instant was completely beyond Ash's expectations. Although the girl, whose whole body was shining, looked no different from her previous transformation mode in appearance, her essential power was directly higher than the height of countless Wallaces!

"what's the situation?"

Lei was equally surprised, especially Miyuki, who rubbed her eyes and blinked in disbelief to make sure she hadn't seen it wrong. "I remember... the transformation device Ayumi used at the end was broken, wasn't it? Why—she transformed again!"

And the second transformation is much stronger than the last one, so powerful, what's the principle behind this?

"Could it be?" Lei, equally incredulous, craned her neck to find something near Ayumi. "She transformed again with the help of some unknown spirit?"

"No, that's not right." Mana slowly sat up and adjusted her posture. She saw a familiar presence in the dazzling blonde girl. The radiance that had erupted during Ash's final moments was similar to hers. "She transformed completely of her own volition."

"I've transformed into a true Pretty Cure!"

"Convey my feelings—"

The pure white girl, with her fingers crossed in prayer, the bow on her chest and the golden twintails flowing behind her back reflected a unique golden starlight.

"[Cure Echo]!"

When she swung her hands to the sides, the girl's eyes no longer showed the loneliness and inferiority she once had. Instead, there was only the thorny gaze of the Valkyrie in the mythical Valhalla.

"Right now, right here," she declared solemnly in front of everyone, her voice completely different from her usual shy tone. "This ends here."

"You might think this has nothing to do with me. Compared to you Pretty Cures who have experienced unimaginable adventures with Ash, I'm just an ordinary passerby."

The girl closed her amber-gold eyes and took a deep breath.

"But someone very important to me told me."

"As long as I try hard enough, I should be able to grab anyone's hand."

Now, I am going to reach out and do what I think is right!

"I will not let people who once loved each other kill each other again."

"We are not—wuuuu..." Just as Lei realized that something was wrong and wanted to explain, the look from Ash made her swallow her words with sobs of grievance.

"There are many other ways to solve the problems between you."

"I want to for this ridiculous ball -" He raised his arms covered in long gloves, and six wings stood upright behind him to form some kind of sacred symbol.

"Let's put an end to it."

"Hahaha..." Ash shook his head, unable to suppress his laughter. "Sakagami Ayumi... Cure Echo! Let me admit it back when I was still in Miyuki's world, I was wrong about you."
