Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

"So give it to me!"

Especially after feeling the burning sensation coming from his palm, Ash immediately let go. Facing the "super vibration wave" that was about to form in front of him, the equally ruthless man simply clenched his fists and fired a "heavy bomb" from top to bottom, which exploded fiercely on the back of the monster's head!

Anyone who wants to launch at this distance is really looking down on me!

"Go down!"

While the monster was temporarily out of breath and was still lying at his feet after his fatal attack was interrupted, Ash immediately made a posture with his hands that was more ferocious than the beast and attacked it in one go!

I was thinking of giving in a little this time, not wanting to drag this fight into an overly intense rhythm, but you, this bastard, really took advantage of me! I also know the cosmic boxing technique specifically for beating monsters, so let me show you how it works!

"Ahh! Quack?!"

Just as the powerful back punch was about to hit the monster's horn, in front of the surprised and astonished gazes of the Pretty Cures who jumped off him, the huge iron fist suddenly began to shrink towards the center, and even the originally huge Ash began to shrink back to his normal size, until his entire body was hanging on the horn.

Brief introduction, heaven...Oh, now I think he was resurrected, so it's okay.

"President... I know that gigantic size is a supermodel as a prop, and it's reasonable for you to set some restrictions, but isn't the duration of this effect too short?"

Three minutes is still too short, three minutes...

That's not right! This isn't even three minutes... not even two minutes and fifty seconds. What the hell am I fighting a monster?

"Boom!"

When Gomora felt the "foreign object" hanging on his horn, he simply rushed into the mountain next to him and slammed into it hard.

"Mr. Ash!"

Although they had some unpleasantness with him before, when they saw this scene, the four girls who screamed out felt that something in their hearts instinctively exploded on the spot.

How dare you treat Ash——!

"Fortune Shaking Star!"

"Honey Stamp!"

From the hands of Iona and Yuuko, who attacked in anger, purple exploding starlight and four-leaf clover seals dropped from the sky exploded on the monster's body with an intensity that surprised even the girls themselves.

Chapter 62: The Revealed Favor and the Reversed Dislike

The proof that Pretty Cure are completely idealistic warriors is clearly reflected in their moves. For example, when they lack confidence, they may not even be able to kill a small soldier with one ultimate move. But at the same time, when they focus their minds, especially when they follow their outburst of emotions and release their inner strength, the degree of enhancement of their expressiveness will increase exponentially!

"roar--?!"

The huge size difference meant that Gomora's previous attacks had no significant effect on them. However, this time was different from the past. In the yellow and purple mixed light burst released by the girls in anger, Gomora fell backwards wailing as if he had been hit by the Spacium beam in the past.

"Mr....Ash?!"

Although even the two instigators were a little surprised by what they had done, the most important thing now was to ensure Ash's safety. Fortunately, they received a response from the other party as soon as they spoke.

"I'm not dead yet, there's no need to scream so painfully for me."

When the monster was knocked down by an angry roar, Ash, who was hanging on the horn and was pulled out, was also smashed out of his form and turned back into the dark decade.

"Tsk!" The special effects of the disarmament offset a large part of the impact. Ash, who hadn't even been hit, began to grope for a counterattack. "It's obviously a wild Gomorrah, but it's really impressive. Come again if you have the guts!"

"Is this the time to talk about this?!" Snow White almost laughed out of anger when she heard that Ash was not afraid but even provoked her. However, faster than her was a stream of pink light that flew past her.

"Lovely Scrander!"

Unlike Ash, who was well-informed and could remain calm even in a seemingly disadvantaged situation, the first one to get anxious after seeing this terrible scene was Miss Ainoe who unexpectedly did not want to see others get hurt. She pulled out a pair of pink wings from her waist with both hands and rushed towards the monster head-on!

Although there had always been some estrangement between Hui and Ash, the girl never had the bad taste to take pleasure in other people's difficulties.

The girl, who had gained aerial adaptability, hurriedly grabbed Ash from behind as she flew by, and pulled him far back before the monster's next destructive attack.

"I can't believe you're so excited for me."

After landing, he patted Hui's back to help her breathe more smoothly as she began to breathe heavily. At the same time, Ash smiled and noticed the two people's extraordinary performance.

It's not like I haven't formed bonds with Pretty Cure before, and I'm also familiar with the moments when they unleash their power for the people they care about. But I thought we weren't that familiar now?

"I'm not—" Ash teased Iona before she could even breathe a sigh of relief. Her face immediately melted and turned red. "I'm not worried about you! It's just that... you helped guide me in the past... Anyway, I can't just stand by and watch someone get hurt!"

After hearing Iona's hurried and incoherent explanation, Ash, with one hand behind his back, revealed a look of satisfaction. He hadn't seen such a typical tsundere performance in a long time.

"That's right." Omori Yuko admitted it directly. "I want to become a companion with Ash-san, just like Kei and Hime-chan, helping each other. So... if Ash-san gets hurt, I'll be... miserable."

"Alright, alright." Seeing Yuko's face full of shame after realizing what she had said, Ash quickly stopped her and helped her to cover it up. "I understand, that's all."

She's a very shy person, so how come she has no psychological barriers towards me? Am I really that safe?

So I have no idea what to do with characters whose goals are too straightforward...it's more fun to see their reactions to serious teasing like Lihua and Lily.

"Wait, that monster!"

Snow White's reminder and the whistling sound of wind overhead made several people react immediately and retreat quickly. Ash picked up Hui, who was still a little weak next to him, and punched the tail that was about to fall with all his strength, using the reaction force to make the two of them fly backwards together.

After dodging another powerful blow from the sky, everyone finally realized that this Gomora was unusual. It had been attacked many times, but for some reason it could always stand up. Instead, it used its anger to "revenge" them with even greater strength.

Based on Ash's past experience, this creature has simply surpassed the level of a "monster" and is beginning to evolve towards becoming a "super beast."

"Tsk!"

The Pretty Cures also spread their wings behind them and dodged repeatedly. They looked at each other in confusion as Gomora became more and more violent after being injured again. Even the Angel of Destiny, who had single-handedly thwarted the Phantom Kingdom's conspiracies many times in the past, made a sound of difficulty.

"Now how to do?"

"Let's do what we have to do." Ash put down the girl in his arms and was about to touch the card box on his waist, but for some reason he couldn't touch any cards.

"Ah, Mr. Ash, your hand!!"

Following the girl's exclamation, Ash saw his left hand twisted at a strange angle, but he didn't care. He just switched to his right hand and continued to grope out a few cards.

Let me think about this situation, is it better to use this "Armored Hibiki" or this "Magic Emperor Kiva"?

"Don't worry, it just looks scary, that's all. It's nothing."

Anyway, I can just put all the bones back together after they are removed. There won't be any other problems except for a little pain.

His nonchalant expression at the moment was noticed by the girl whose eyes were becoming more and more emotional.

"——!" When Ash was struggling to decide which card was more suitable for the current situation, he saw a pair of warm and gentle hands from a girl wrapping around his fingers, pushing the card in his hand back.

"Mr. Ash..."

All the resentment that had accumulated towards him before began to gradually change when he faced Ash, who was injured while saving him but didn't care at all.

The girl, with her heart full of emotions, gently held the hand with heartache, then raised her hazy eyes and spoke seriously.

"Please, this battle."

The original you was indeed unreasonable and incomprehensible, but the you now! As expected, Ash, you are just like what Seiji said, a good person who deserves help and salvation.

I was worried when you ignored me for some reason a few times before, but now I have made up my mind!

No matter how difficult it is, even if you actually hate me, I will definitely help you with all my strength!

"Let us Pretty Cure take care of it!"

Chapter 63: The Right Megumi and the Wrong Ash

"so?"

With his head tilted, Ash removed his twisted arm with a crisp sound that made the girls' teeth ache and their hearts tremble. However, the swelling, bruises and severe pain on his arm could not change his expression at all, because his attention was completely attracted by the girl's words.

Cute angel...I know you feel a little different from other "kinds of the same kind", but in fact, you are more like the "natural born warrior" like the manzai president.

But even so, out of respect for my senior Pretty Cure members, I still want to try not to judge you based on my personal interests... So I didn't realize you had such a strong fighting spirit?

Honestly, what do you mean by letting you guys handle the battle?

The same sentence can produce completely different results in different contexts.

"Can I take it that when you say you want me to hold back, you mean to just use your own strength to fight the monster?"

So, now you are planning to kick me out just because of this "minor injury" so that you can "enjoy" the fight?

This is not what I imagined...

"Of course!"

It was not as complicated as Ash had imagined. The girl's thoughts were very simple and direct: she didn't want to see Ash get hurt for them again, and she vaguely wanted him to see her powerful side... Maybe she was indeed a little excited about the battle?

If I can get Mr. Ash to recognize my strength, I feel like I might be able to get closer to him... I can help him and achieve my goal at the same time, which is like killing two birds with one stone.

"Do you think that's possible?"

Not to mention that I have to watch you fight while I can't fight myself...just think about how you can feel at ease without me standing by to scout the battle?

"It's not impossible, I think it should be possible!"

"Do not."

The knight, holding onto the dislocated arm that was constantly swinging, brought the mask closer. In the girl's eyes, his inexplicably stern nature gave him the oppressive feeling befitting a "world destroyer."

"If I say no, then no!"

"No, it works!"

Even Ash was surprised that even after he'd gone this far, the stubborn girl in front of him continued to refute him. Unlike the other outbursts of anger she'd shown in the past out of concern for him, Ash saw in her eyes a fierce fighting spirit in the face of a challenge.

"If I say yes, then yes. I will definitely do it for you!"

On the contrary, it was the girl who took the initiative to press both sides of Ash's shoulders. Hui looked into the compound eyes of the striped code in front of her without any concealment, letting him understand her determination.

"This is our world. We won't let you have the chance to destroy it, but we won't let others do evil either!"

"I'll prove it to you. We'll protect our world!"

"......"

The two of them staring at each other fell silent, their thoughts shimmering beneath their fluorescent masks. Kei, trying to make her words more convincing, kept her gaze fixed on him. That was until Ash suddenly slapped her chest, letting the massive tail lash down from the sky once again, blocking them.

"Nice look."

Despite the chaos caused by the monsters, Ash's voice still came through inexplicably clearly.

"I like it very much."

"Eh?" Although she felt happy to be acknowledged by the other party, she couldn't help but cover her hot cheeks, not knowing whether Ash's straightforward words also had ambiguous meanings.

Wow, I was clearly trying to show off, but why did he end up seeing my embarrassing side...

But why do I feel shy in front of him now?

"I'll just trust you."

After saying that, Ash left the battlefield decisively. Looking at the girl and the monster confronting each other in the distance, Ash even pulled down his belt to cancel his transformation, as if he had really "abandoned" them.

"[Ash...]"

Ash, who had been pulling the hand that had been dislocated and put it back together like a Lego, greeted Him more casually than before, as he was already accustomed to the appearance of the panel in front of him that actually had no system flow.

"What, aibo?"

In response to Ash's sudden new name, the transparent panel seemed to become even more transparent. After flickering for a while, words slowly appeared on it.

"[Are you giving up so easily this time?]"

You do value them...especially that lovely angel, so it's not like Ash who has set his sights on a target to let her go so decisively this time.

As a system that has always been residing in Ash, it is naturally able to perceive it keenly, ever since it knew that there was another "self" and that this was the last journey.

Something seems to have changed about Ash?

"Since she has shown such awareness, it's only natural that she can surpass this level."

It seems that I am no longer so eager for the outside world?

"If I help her with everything, she won't be able to grow. Since she wants to rely on herself, I'll give her a chance."

On the contrary, self-identity is gradually weakened?

At this moment, the system could not utter a single word that it vaguely wanted to hint at.

“[......]”

Although the system's "heart" does not actually have "emotions", it felt a deep sense of regret and worry towards Ash who was smiling at that moment.
