Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

Behind Ash's fleeing figure, the Pretty Cures looked at each other in bewilderment.

"What did he say?"

"Who knows, no one knows what he's thinking."

No one knows what Ash is thinking.

--------

"I... probably."

Standing in front of the man who had returned, Twilight thought about it over and over again, and finally found an answer to the dilemma in her heart.

"Indeed, that's not right..."

Twilight had such a premonition.

If he really left and disappeared like this, then... I might never get an answer.

If this is the price to pay, then...it should be okay for me to let go of my princess dignity a little.

"Oh?"

"I'm sorry!" Twilight clenched her fists tightly, not even understanding why she was apologizing to him, but still said it with her shoulders shaking. "I was too focused on my own affairs and neglected you too much."

"You are not my servant, Ash. You are... my equal."

After all, love is a matter between two people.

"So, please teach me what love really is."

Chapter 100: The First Different Sound

"It seems you finally get the point."

Although Ash himself had changed due to their subtle influence, he still felt relieved to see Twilight taking the initiative to care about him.

With a light snap, Ash, with his confident and complacent smile back on his face, grabbed her wrist and started running with her without stopping, just like last time.

“Where are you going?!”

Although she was led in a hurry, a smile gradually appeared on the girl's face again.

She felt the same happy feeling of "freedom" when she was held hand and "escaped"!

"Where did you go?"

"Of course, I'll take you to a nice place!"

------

Wearing her own golden mask and holding her own pink violin, she stood on the stage and looked at the audience below. To be honest, Twilight looked a little confused.

"As a princess, your specialty is the violin, right? Now I have a good idea! How about this? I'll take you to a nice place!"

After asking Twilight and confirming everything, Ash took her on a winding path to a mysterious place filled with lights. After communicating with the staff there, he brought Twilight to the stage of this place called "live house".

"This is the stage where musical dreams were hatched and extinguished... But I'm not saying all this for this reason. I just thought, if Twilight's performance is so beautiful!"

When Twilight took her violin, which Ash had taken out from somewhere, she realized that there were so many audience members standing under the stage.

"Wait, I've never been in front of so many people—"

"I just think that if Twilight has such a vocal talent that is comparable to the gift of the Muse, but only a few isolated listeners know about it, isn't it a great waste?"

Ash winked at her knowingly.

"How about having more listeners come so they can also enjoy the princess's song?"

So amidst all these strange conversations, Twilight, who didn't even know how she agreed, walked onto the stage. Everyone looked at this dark Gothic "cosplay" with curiosity.

Solo performances are not uncommon in such performances, but when the audience saw her take the stage with her instrument, they had quite a few opinions from the audience who were unaware of the situation.

"But it's actually a violin?"

"Is there going to be a classical music performance at the live house? There's clearly no such arrangement today. This must be a mistake."

"Classical music? That's not what I want to listen to..."

Listening to the comments from the audience below, Twilight tightened her grip on the bow.

For her, the violin is an instrument immersed in loneliness and coldness, an instrument that requires a closed heart to play. It is this sense of loneliness that makes her love the violin even more.

After all, from the moment Destarcre opened his eyes, except for his mother, the Witch of Despair... Twilight's life has always been lived in loneliness.

She felt that this violin was very similar to herself.

In fact, it was just as Ash said, the only listener to her lonely piano music besides herself was Haruno Haruka that day... This was indeed the first time for her to show off like this.

Originally, she was still conflicted, but now things are a little different.

"They are obviously different from Ash, they are just a bunch of common people!"

Now, let you all be moved by the sound of my piano!

“?~——”

As the strings rippled, elegant and deep vocals descended onto an unimagined stage.

"..."

Even under such music, the original ambient sounds below gradually subsided.

Just, I don’t know why.

There always seems to be something awkward about her playing.

"What is Ash doing?"

Seeing that Ash actually let Twilight play like this, Nan immediately couldn't sit still. You know, Haruka almost fell into evil ways after hearing such a sound!

If she has any ulterior motives and does something to the audience below... she can't even think about it. When Nan picked up the key and was about to attack as Pretty Cure, Qiluo stopped him first.

"Qiluo?"

"Calm down, Nan." As a model, Qiluo, who also had some knowledge of vocal music, immediately noticed Twilight's awkwardness and explained the problem to her companion. "Listen carefully. While her performance is very similar to Haruka's, there are also some differences."

Seeing that she herself seemed a little confused, perhaps Ash deliberately did something to Qin to avoid what Nan was worried about? Humph~ This king is really bold and careful!

Although Qiluo thought so, unfortunately, Ash himself did not mean that.

He did make some adjustments to the violin, but not to avoid something, but to bring out something!

For example, how about letting Twilight let go of some of her stubbornness, a little bit, a little bit, and experience that feeling of freedom?

"Well..."

Originally, Twilight had intended to use her "performance" to seal their hearts as a lesson for daring to look down on her, but when the first note on the strings came out, she felt something was wrong. It was impossible to play such a low sound under the current circumstances!

But, should we give up here?

"~"

When the sound in her hand was about to collapse, the girl put down the bow and plucked the strings with her soft fingers. The twilight, which had blocked one way, immediately changed direction.

Even if the original method doesn't work... I can still play it in other ways! Don't underestimate the princess's determination!

At this moment, the still elegant but more cheerful sound that has escaped the lowness is playing in her hands! At this moment, the violin music that is truly like the melody of the goddess is resounding with its beautiful voice on this stage!

"!!!"

All the previous voices of doubt disappeared without a trace at this moment!

No matter what it was originally used to play, how can music lovers not feel joy when they hear such beautiful sounds?

The atmosphere is contagious. Following the enthusiastic support of the audience, the piece of ice that had always been fixed on Twilight's face also began to melt.

"Ash, did you see that?!"

"The princess's performance... no! My performance! It's being so popular!"

Even Ash and the Pretty Cures in the audience smiled, and for the first time, genuine joy appeared on the princess's face.

Chapter 101: The Desperate Princess Awakens Her Heart of Love? (4K Chapter)

The performance ended up being a huge success.

In fact, even Twilight herself had never imagined that she would urgently change the tune at the critical moment, and force herself to use her talent to control a style of music that she didn't like (was not good at)... In the end, the enthusiastic response of the audience made her performance more and more perfect, and she had actually taken a path that she had never imagined.

"Ash!"

Although she had a rough idea that Ash had tampered with her violin, Twilight, experiencing such praise from a stranger for the first time, didn't bother to dwell on it. Her face flushed, and she even temporarily forgot about the princess's rules, running excitedly towards the only friend she could share her feelings with.

"Ash, did you see that? Everyone's reaction!"

She couldn't wait to share her happiness with him, with this person.

However, just as she was jogging to the backstage where Dayash had brought her, her slightly trembling sharp ears sensitively caught the sound of another sound.

This, is actually the sound of a violin? It's after me, why?

"And... sounds good?"

As an expert in this field, Twilight naturally could not have heard it wrong. The patient girl slowly lifted the curtain in front of her and saw Ash holding the black violin in his hand, closing his eyes and immersed in the performance.

Unexpected...but it sounds really good.

Twilight sat silently opposite the man, carefully leaning her upper body on the table and listening attentively to the "voice of the goddess" he offered.

It feels like something is missing, but it still sounds great.

Now Twilight seemed to know why Ash brought her here.

"You said love is a matter between two people, so we need to find a place where we share common interests?"

Twilight, whose heart was constantly fluctuating with the melody of the music, continued to remain silent, just maintaining this posture to quietly listen to his voice.

I never thought that humans could reach this level in art.

Even Twilight herself did not realize that it was the "human" Ash who she had originally treated as a toy and amusement object.

At this moment, his status in her mind is becoming increasingly higher... No.

To be precise, should it be that her heart, which has always maintained a subtle sense of loneliness, is getting closer and closer to Ash?

"Whoo~"

After the song was over, the first thing the man saw when he opened his eyes was Twilight, who looked expectant across from him.

"It was truly a beautiful performance. I underestimated you." The girl carefully tucked her dazzling silver hair away from her ear, revealing a blush of excitement. It was the first time her face, once so arrogant and cold, had revealed such a gentle expression. "No wonder you brought me to a place like this. What's going on? After hearing my performance, are you itching to show off your skills yourself?"

Slightly, Twilight felt that she could understand him.

Because both of them have their "lonely" places, right?

"probably."

Unlike Twilight's expected reaction, Ash still looked somewhat dissatisfied after finishing the piece. "It's just that this piece isn't my performance. On the contrary, I don't have the same interest in the violin as you do."

"The performance just now was just a simple imitation. It lacked the heart and love. It was missing the crucial point."

"Why bother playing if you don't like it?"

Twilight couldn't understand it. Just as despair naturally follows when all hope is lost, why would she go against her own nature? Wasn't she deliberately going in the opposite direction of her heart?

Humans...are really interesting.

"I just vaguely remember that this wonderful performance was something I once had as a listener, and it seemed to have left some good memories with me."

When I was the king of the Kingdom of Night, I only thought about leading everyone forward and I didn’t realize that I might be unexpectedly a very nostalgic person.

But now he felt a little embarrassed to tell the truth in front of Twilight. Tsk, will she think I'm being pretentious?

"Hmm~?"

After staring at Ash, who was in a state of inner turmoil but with an unchanged expression, Twilight suddenly took the sword called "Black

star” violin.

"It should be, this is how it feels, right?"
