Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

"My name is Ash, and I am the king of the Kingdom of Night!"

The man casually threw away the delicate shawl that rustled on his left shoulder and walked out from the darkness in a crimson leather jacket. It was none other than the solemn-looking Ash, who introduced himself without hesitation.

"With this declaration."

As the girls couldn't help but clench their fists, Ash set foot on the land called Earth for the first time with an extremely familiar feeling.

"This world will also submit to my conquest!"

Chapter 4: The Concept of the Nation, You Are All Gears!

"What the hell?!"

Kross, who looked like he was hit by a huge truck, pulled himself out of the ground covered in dust and dirt. He looked at the little ones who came out from the other side of the door and even started to line up excitedly. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

"W-What, these are elves?!"

Let’s not talk about why there are so many elves...but with the courage of the elves, how could they not be afraid at all and even be extremely excited when facing my Castle of Despair!

His instinct of doubt made him follow the path cleared by the elves and set his sights on Ash, who had an extremely fierce aura.

Kingdom of Night...what is that? I've never heard of it!

From this point of view, both Kroz and Pretty Cure were equally confused.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? What's wrong? You all look stunned by our boss!"

At this moment, a little red elf jumped in front of everyone excitedly, holding up the microphone in his hand and began to explain openly.

"If you still have eyes, keep them open and watch!"

"If your ears still work, listen!"

"You'll fall into madness as soon as your brain can still think!"

As the UFO hovering overhead shone brightly like a searchlight, Ash, standing in the spotlight as the commentary progressed, completely stole everyone's attention.

"This is none other than the savior of the elves, the conqueror of the world, the only and forever most powerful king of the Kingdom of Night—"

"Master Ash——!!!"

I have never seen such exaggerated things before. Are they really elves like us?

Amidst the sudden bombardment of countless pieces of information, not only the completely bewildered Princess Guangmei and the other two were stunned, but even Puff and Aloma, who arrived late, opened their mouths wide, feeling that their worldview was being madly impacted.

The elves they knew were all kind and naturally beautiful beings... Could there be another version like this?!

"it is good..."

"What's wrong Roma!"

"What a handsome Puff!" Looking at the group of elves in the "One Hundred Demons Night Parade", Puff, with sparkling eyes, stretched out his four soft little legs and wanted to play with them happily. "Puff wants to play too~Ah!"

"No! Puff will turn into a bad boy, Roma!" In order to prevent his sister from learning bad things, the poor parrot hugged his sister's eyes and rolled into a ball.

"The...king of the Kingdom of Night?"

The three girls, who whispered the name praised by the elves, are themselves "Princess Pretty Cure" and are striving to become the "Grand Princess (Royal Princess)" in the legend of the Kingdom of Hope. They still have some fantasies and concepts about the existence of the royal family.

However, their imagination and impression were completely useless compared to the exaggerated attire of the "king" in front of them.

"A little." Even Nan, who was always serious, felt his cheeks twitching. "Isn't that a bit too exaggerated?"

"No, Xiaonan, I don't think this is a little bit."

This is definitely too much! Is it necessary to be so exaggerated?

Of course, neither Ash nor the elves of the Dark Kingdom reacted to their whispered proposals, and the latter were even more excited.

"Then, whatever stands in his way next, whether it's light or darkness!"

The elf in charge of the explanation raised his hand and waved at Pretty Cure and the Castle of Despair. His attitude of casually stepping on his own feet in his words made Qiluo, who was about to ask him what was written, clenched her fists in anger.

"What follows will be proof that he has conquered another world!"

"Ohhhhhhhh!!!" When the commentary reached its climax, regardless of the fact that both the good and evil sides had twitching mouth corners, the elves, big and small, stomped their feet and cheered for their king.

"AAO——! AAO——!"

Sigh... these idiots are basically roasting me on the fire. Listening to the elves' heartfelt cheers behind him, Ash felt so tired that he wanted to cover his face with his hands.

However, there is no way.

They give everything they have to love and respect me, and I want to make my subjects feel proud of them from the bottom of their hearts. Isn't this the responsibility of a king?

"That's right!"

There was no cover at all, and the momentum was like a torrential downpour that kept approaching from Ash's body to the surroundings, almost making them mistakenly think that it was some kind of attack and had to raise their hands to cover their faces. His extremely arrogant and straightforward gaze was chasing the Pretty Cure opposite him.

"Legendary warrior, Precure... I have heard your stories. They are truly a shining legend."

Ash, who was praising, suddenly changed the subject.

"However, how can the glow of your rotten grass compare to the bright moon in the sky? The only advice I can give you is that you will never be my opponent."

The arrogant man casually threw the branches he had just broken off in front of them. "But if you can show me your loyalty here, I can..."

"how could it be possible!"

Ash, whose speech was suddenly interrupted, looked at the panting pink with some displeasure, and turned around following her sad gaze to see the elves behind her who were so exhausted that they were crushed under the sedan chair.

"I don't know about the Kingdom of Night....but!"

Is it really okay for you to do this?

"Oh? You're actually looking at them instead of me."

I've already told them it's unnecessary, but these idiots, after much discussion, insisted on using the traditional etiquette of the Elven Kingdom to make my appearance a formality. I weigh hundreds of times more than they do, so if they weren't inhabiting my physical bodies through their spirit bodies, it's not impossible they'd be dead from exhaustion. I guess I'll have to teach them a lesson about this bad habit when I get back.

"They're your people, right?!" Whether it was her longing for the King she once dreamed of, or her simple kindness, Haruka felt anger towards this man who called himself "King" and everything about him. "How could you let them do this just to show off your power!"

"Even though you're the king, have you ever cared about their feelings?!"

You want us to swear allegiance like this? How is that possible?

Bullshit, it’s our honor to be able to work hard for the king!

"You--" After hearing what Haruka said, the elves who were about to retort to her in the chaos were glared back at by Ash who was afraid that they would do something weird again. Of course, this behavior was more like a violent threat in the eyes of the girls.

"Fu☆fu~" At the same time, after Haruka finished speaking from the bottom of her heart, she got goosebumps all over her body when she heard the strange laughter that turned around and pointed at her.

"It makes me want to laugh to see you care so much."

"What do you think the Kingdom of Night is?"

"?"

"Of course it's me! I, Ash, am the Kingdom of Night itself!" He lifted his boot and slammed it down, crushing the dead branches at his feet into fine powder. "Where I stand is the territory of the Kingdom of Night. Wherever my sword reaches, that is my kingdom! Everything I have is everything my country has!"

"I am the country!"

"Your so-called citizens are nothing more than cogs and tools belonging to me!"

Chapter 5: Angry girl, Dark Kiva appears!

"..."

In front of Ash's "National Gear Theory", the elves belonging to the Kingdom of Night stood there like withered reeds, silent and without making a sound.

"That line just now was so cool! Shouldn't we cheer for the King?"

"Didn't you see the look in the king's eyes just now? The king has his own considerations. For now, we should just follow his orders and not say anything."

Through their eyes, the mother monster, the strange blue dinosaur, and other elves quietly exchanged experiences in silence. However, in the eyes of Pretty Cure, this silent exchange was simply a manifestation of the elves' fear and Ash's domineering and terrifying will!

Strong, gentle, and beautiful—these were the defining qualities of the Princess Pretty Cure, allowing them to proudly become fairytale princesses and beacons of hope for everyone. Similarly, their kind hearts, driven by a yearning for hope, made them furious at Ash's outrageous words.

How could there be...such an unreasonable person?

How could there be...such a self-righteous guy?

How could someone so cruel and brutal be called a king?!

I thought of the "king" who was even willing to sing a gentle song for me as a little girl in my dream not long ago.

And in front of him is another "king" Ash who treats the people like grass, is indifferent to his subordinates and is arrogant.

The anger is unbearable.

"A person like you is not worthy of being king!"

In their anger, they even forgot the fear of the Spider Castle of Despair that they were previously terrified of.

The three people who originally accepted the disguise keys to become Pretty Cure took on this responsibility in order to protect the lives and dreams of others. The same heart made them reach the same unanimous anger in front of Ash.

"Qiluo, I want..."

"No need to say more, Xiaonan and I must be feeling the same way right now!"

In addition to protecting everyone's dreams and retrieving the 13 lost disguise keys to become the legendary "Grand Princess", they have another goal.

We must... defeat this tyrant named Ash!

Rescue the elves living in dire straits!

"Not only do you not realize your situation, but you're actually baring your fangs at me?" Seeing the hostility emanating from the three girls, Ash smiled happily. "Not bad, it seems the legend I was looking forward to wasn't so disappointing after all."

It seems that this expedition will not be boring!

Although they seem to have some misunderstandings...but it doesn't matter, it's more interesting this way, I agree!

"Come to think of it, it seems the Castle of Delan is still missing some decorations?" The inexplicable glance sent a chill down the spines of the three girls. "Well, if I win."

"You will become mine."

"What are you talking about?"

This time, the explicit words made the angry girls even more angry, embarrassed and annoyed.

He's actually planning to take us down and steal our women! He looks like the kind of tyrant you have to bring down in this story!

"Well then, I will now show you my conquests—Come on!"

What was that?! They were so dazzled they almost lost sight of it. It looked like a bat, dangling upside down from the other's shawl, spread its wings and soared towards Ash's raised hand.

Is that his spirit?!

"[Feel honored, it's time to conquer.]"

As if it was not yet accustomed to speaking, a low, neutral voice lacking emotion uttered from the mouth of the blood-red crescent bat.

"[I bite!]"

The "bat" that suddenly turned around and bit Ash's tiger mouth scared the girls. When they were still wondering why they suddenly fell out, they saw that as the dark blood on its hands was injected, tooth-like patterns like enamel glass emerged from the skin on Ash's face.

"Hensin!"

When the bat's "elf companion" was hung upside down on a belt made of chains, ripples greener than the forest shattered the thick colored glass wrapped around his body, revealing the incomparably gorgeous blood-red armor called "Dark Kiva" underneath.

"He actually also!"

Green compound eyes lit up under the bat-winged helmet, and the blood-stained red permeated the surface of this luxurious armor. The countless complex inscriptions engraved in the gaps between them also flashed an unsettling light along with the magic stones on the chest that lit up one by one.

"Transformed?"

If Ash had only made them feel uncomfortable before, now with his armor on, they could truly feel what he said before about how powerful he was.

"But, do you really want to fight us?!"

"Hey, girl." Ash was barely halfway through his sentence when he suddenly vanished from their sight, startling everyone. As they frantically searched for him, a voice from behind chilled them to the bone. "Aren't you showing me your hostility as an invitation?"

Ash, who appeared behind the girls at some point, threw away the silver cloak on his back and was pressing his jade-like knuckles lightly on their exposed necks in a very intimate manner.

"Now you're asking me this question, how should I answer~?"

I totally, totally didn't see his move!
