Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

As Ash muttered to himself as he walked back the way he came, the girls who had been following him were now walking in front of him.

"Ash, there's one last question you haven't answered yet?"

Unconsciously, everyone's attention has shifted to him. After all, this is indeed a serious issue that cannot be taken lightly.

"What goal do you, who have received the Dark Echo, want to achieve?"

Whether we are worried or curious, we all want to know the answers.

"but……"

As if she had thought of something, Lei, with an inexplicably shy expression, added a sentence awkwardly.

"If you're really embarrassed to say it, it's okay if you don't want to say it."

We believe in you, and we believe that you are not an evil person who uses your power to do bad things.

"I was a little wrong again."

Having said the previous words, Ash came over not to hit her anymore, but instead stood on tiptoe to touch Lei's head as a reward.

"In fact, the Dark Echoes were originally intended for the System Himself. I simply agreed to help Him collect them all."

"Okay, okay, we all know."

Lian Qiluo felt helpless when he mentioned this again.

“Know how important He is in your heart and that no one else can replace Him.”

He is clearly a harem king but has such a "lovesick" side. Is this setting really okay?

"That wish is—"

Ash raised his hands high and said loudly with pride as if he was showing off.

“Let every world become a beautiful world where good deeds are rewarded!”

Of course, it has now more or less become a part of my wish.

"..."

"What's wrong? You all look like you've been affected by the electromagnetic waves of the strange cat."

"How, how should I put it?"

Scratching the back of their heads sheepishly, Rikka and Rei both wore awkward expressions. Having known that Ash's initial attempts to extract the Dark Echo from their world were so ruthless, no one would have believed him to be anything other than a villain. They had never expected his ultimate goal to be so noble.

Are you really not a Pretty Cure? Is that system your spirit?

"I didn't expect it to be so powerful..."

“Not bad, not bad~!”

Enjoying the gradually changing looks from the crowd towards him, Ash felt incredibly proud.

"From now on, you are allowed to worship and respect your Master Ash even more!"

"No, that's a bit..."

To be honest, the Ash that each of us knows is a little different, but it is indeed the same Ash.

"But, that's something we have to consider in the past or the future. Compared to this..."

Walking out of the command room, looking at the people outside who had already climbed onto Mechagodzilla's chest, especially Ai Aida who was holding a microphone in her hand, even Ash felt a little bit confused.

"For example, what's happening right in front of us... Pfft!"

"Mana, what are you doing again?"

"Because, Ash seems to be in a bad mood lately!"

She raised the microphone in her hand, which she found in the cab of Mechagodzilla.

"This won't work, so I'm going to give my love back to Ash."

"Let me sing a song for you all here!"

"Isn't that too abrupt?"

"No, it's not that bad, right?"

Although the actions of Mana, who had great mobility, were a bit chaotic, Ash didn't seem to have any aversion to it.

"That's right. A protagonist who keeps a sad face throughout the whole process usually ends up with all their friends and family dead. In that case, it's better to face everything with a smile."

Besides, I actually quite like her singing voice. Recalling those rare and precious memories with her, Ash and Kei exchanged a smile, their eyes meeting.

But last time it was a stage with super robots, and this time it's a mechanical dinosaur? You Pretty Cure girls are really good at it.

"Then I will sing!"

"Wait, Mana!"

Holding up the microphone connected to Mechagodzilla's speaker, Miss Ai closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

"!"

At the same time, Hishikawa Rikka, who was facing a formidable enemy, overcame her fear at the last moment, walked through the crowd who looked like they were enjoying the show, and covered Ash's ears with her palms in time.

“La La La~~”

Regarding Ai Aida, who has a sweet appearance, extraordinary abilities, and a quick-witted demeanor like a little superhero, she's also known for her singing talent. Hahaha~ It's impossible for someone with such remarkable talent to be the only one who can't sing, right?

Sadly, yes.

After being diffused through the speakers, the sound became more than just a simple song. After Rikka's final desperate rescue, even Ash, the only one left standing among the "annihilated" crowd below, twitched slightly at the corners of his mouth.

How should I describe this?

If the famous Fat Tiger sang in a female voice, this would probably be it.

"Wow, is it true?"

Even Mana herself was a little surprised. When she put down the microphone, Miyuki, Shirayukihime and others who had agreed to help her now looked fainted with their eyes spinning like tops.

"Mana, I don't want to be too rude."

Looking at the girl who jumped down from the roof, Ash looked helpless, not knowing why she, who usually performed perfectly, failed in this matter this time.

"The power of this song is enough to defeat demons, but it has nothing to do with the power of the Clear Voice."

"How rude! I've been preparing this song for Ash for a long time!"

As I always hold the hope of meeting you again, I have been practicing my singing voice! Last time when I auditioned it for Ai-chan, she had no objections.

"I think playing the piano would be more suitable for you, Mana..."

It's unpleasant to listen to, and even if you say it's funny in all conscience, her singing voice is at the level of Fat Tiger and Azathoth.

Seeing that she looked quite lost when she helped everyone who had fallen to the ground up, Ash couldn't help but ask curiously.

"But Mana, you clearly know what you're doing. Why did you go through all this trouble?"

It's like you're doing whatever you want... To get revenge on me for bullying you in the past?

"Look at this, Ash, it's obviously something very strong in flavor, but you can eat it with gusto, right?"

The last time Ash destroyed the confidence of his chef father in one breath, it left an extremely deep impression on Mana.

"And even though Ash was the one being beaten and defeated, he was excited when his righteous opponent shone with his idealism."

"so what?"

"So I flipped the chessboard and thought about it from his perspective. Maybe my singing is terrible, but it just happens to be the tune that Ash, who has weird tastes, likes."

After all, Rikka and the others haven't listened to me sing since we were little, so I just want to get compliments on my singing voice...

"Besides Hui, my favorite singer is Mizuki Ichiro. Please stop slandering me as some heavy-tasting old man...!?"

Suddenly, Ash felt the inspiration that flashed through his head like a bolt of lightning!

"That's too much—"

"Mana!"

Ash's sudden exclamation startled Mana, who was still furious.

"What did you just say?!"

"Hmm? You mean 'Just the tune Ash likes'?"

"No, it's the previous sentence! The very first sentence!"

"So I flipped the chessboard and put myself in their shoes..."

"Yes, that's it!"

Sometimes it’s not that there is no solution. It’s like looking for your phone while holding it. It’s right at your fingertips, but you habitually ignore it. You just lack some inspiration.

And just now, with Mana's "guidance", Ash figured it out!

When you are in a dilemma where your opponent has checkmate and you can't think of a way out, you might as well put yourself in your opponent's shoes and think about how many moves it would take to checkmate your opponent, who is on the verge of collapse. This is the meaning of empathy.

"As the saying goes, an enemy with a gun is not to be feared, because at this moment, the only thing he has is a gun."

Ash's brain circuits were working rapidly as he muttered the reason that made Miyuki's eyes spin again after she just woke up.

"The enemy's purpose has been made clear. They've sealed us away in this world to prevent us from getting in the way. In reality, they've already succeeded."

That's right! After following me back to this world and stealing Histim's super AI, Hundred Worlds should have already accomplished all of its goals. If it were me, I would have simply dropped the Sealing Gears. There's no need to launch a second attack and lay out my plan. Wouldn't it be better to leave the enemy bewildered and drowned forever?

"Dust said he personally wanted to annoy me more, but was stopped by the others. Then they said their final goodbyes to me together... This is it!"

Ash snapped his fingers and instantly connected with the thoughts.

Isn't this the classic scenario where the villains each harbor their own agenda and eventually end up fighting amongst themselves? I get it, I'm familiar with it!

It's obvious that, whether for their own sake or for some other purpose, one of the three of them probably doesn't want me to be trapped in the world forever!

"Ash, did you come up with anything?!"

Looking at the boy who was leaning against the wall with his arms in a weird upside-down position, they felt hope without finding it funny at all.

"Everything is connected, and my brain cells are already on full blast!"

Imitating Xian's way of thinking, and recalling the last battle when the three people from the Hundred Realms attacked at the same time, Ash instantly responded to Dust's words.

"We're old friends, but you're the one who comes to you and wants to beat you up. You're really annoying, Ash!"

"Yeah, the second time it wasn't an order, they came to me on their own initiative!"

It is obvious that even if the memory and thinking circuits are brainwashed, there are still some "things" deeper in the mind that cannot be washed away!

That's not to say they hate me.

On the contrary, this is the last clue they left for me!

"found it!"

"found it?"

Pulling open a corner of his collar, Ash smiled sincerely.

"The winning formula has been determined."

However, neither Ash nor Pretty Cure had thought of this.

When they were in the universe, looking at the huge beast of light blocking the earth, they never imagined that the last link of the plan would be such an "existence".

"The final obstacle is you!?"

90

Chapter 90: Breaking the Prison of Heaven! The First Battle with the Supreme!

Ash raised his hand and ripped open the collar of the white coat, exposing his somewhat accomplished muscles to everyone.

"ah--!"

Immediately, several people with a thin face covered their faces and screamed, and the rest looked around with their eyes wandering and not knowing where to look, with their faces flushed.

Although they had slept in the same bed before... that was mainly to comfort Ash! And they were all wearing pajamas at the time, so how could they have seen such a thrill!

But you really don't know until you see it. Even when he was only 12 years old, Ash had such a great figure, even abs... No! Now is not the time to discuss such things! ?

"You, you, you, what are you doing! At least not at a time like this—not in front of everyone!"
