Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

Suddenly, someone didn't recognize him and was even hostile. He knew there was something fishy going on. Unraveling the mystery was the reason he was here.

"If you want to blame someone, you can only blame me for being late."

"As for this minor injury, I can heal it on its own by applying some saliva. Compared to these, what about the others?"

"Yash went to prepare supplies, Puka is cooking, and Baomei went out for something not long ago. She should be back by now." Not being fooled by Ash, the sound of the girl rummaging through things could still be heard from the bathroom.

"As for the others, they're the same as always. They're probably still waiting for you."

"Really? In that case."

Pushing the door open and entering the other room, Ash pulled out a chair from the table and sat down beside the bed. He reached out to Hanasaki Rei, who was lying on the bed with a happy smile on her face, as if she was dreaming about something good.

"Really? I came home and you didn't even say hello?"

Although it was said in a joking tone, but when it echoed in the dull and dim room, there was still no response, and the rising tone of the voice dropped helplessly.

"What a heartless bunch of people...are you really that happy?"

He pulled at the corner of the girl's mouth and smiled, causing her tender skin to bounce back with a rosy redness after a while. Then, Ash poked her again and again, and the bounce back cycle continued without getting tired of it.

"It seems that he is very happy."

Releasing his fingers from the cheeks that were gently pinched, the man looked to the side and saw that Miyuki, Hui, Haruka, Wei and other people who came with him were all lying on the bed, breathing steadily and slowly, with their eyes closed.

It's such a happy sleeping face, so happy that people don't want to disturb it.

"Did I do something wrong again? Did I hurt you again?"

In the dark room, Ash, who was sitting on a chair, seemed to be asking them questions, but actually it sounded more like he was talking to himself.

If so, I really hope you can jump up immediately and tell me in person that I am wrong.

"Or do you want me to do something... before you wake up?"

In fact, Ash didn't come to find Mana and the others immediately after arriving in this world. Several days passed between them.

And it was during these few days that such a change happened.

The cause of the incident has to start from the time when he set out with everyone.

Chapter 200: Everyone who is sleepy, please take a rest.

"Don't think of this as just a simple retrieval, Ash! The direction you're heading to is as important as the battle we're about to wage."

This was a warning given to him by one of his best friends, the pirate captain Marbelas, on behalf of everyone after discussion before their trip.

The truth was actually quite simple. Kaler hadn't offered the gears to him out of kindness; he had been lying about setting a trap for him to fall into. And if that was the case—

"Whether we succeed in defeating Kaler or lose and have to wait for you to rescue me, during this period of time, we have effectively tied down half of the enemy's left and right arms, greatly reducing any potential obstacles we might encounter!"

"You're still as clever as ever!"

Out of habit, Mabelas wanted to hit him on the head with her fist, but this time she dodged it and chuckled.

"That's why I told you to be more serious, kid. After all, your words will always make you underestimate the enemy and cause trouble for everyone!"

"That's all old shit. Don't bring up my past."

"It's a shame we can't bring more people with us, but those girls should be able to protect you... I won't say more. Compared to all this, I believe that we can both get the victory we want when we meet. If you want to win, you have to win twice. This is the way of pirates!"

So with the blessings of his companions, Ash and his companions set out on their journey to the other side.

"Nothing seems to have changed since I left."

In a sense, Ash, who was returning to his hometown, knocked on the mirror beside him, but there was no response except for a shaking. As a result, Ash could only laugh awkwardly in the face of everyone's confused "siege".

Oh, it seems that the Black Warrior Dragon has been fed by them for a long time and has been enjoying himself so much that his relationship with his original owner has completely faded.

"What are you waiting for? There's nothing here."

"Ahem, compared to these!"

In response to everyone's questions, Ash smoothed out the ripples on the mirror and quickly changed the subject in a serious tone.

"Everyone, don't forget the purpose of our trip, so let's start the investigation immediately!"

"Oh!"

Considering that they had just arrived, unknown enemies might have set dangerous traps, and contacting Mana and the others right away would be tantamount to alerting the enemy.

So everyone began to investigate the possible mysteries hidden in this world, and this investigation lasted for several days.

"Why haven't you found anything yet, Puka?"

"I'm sorry, although everyone has tried various methods."

The temporarily unfolded screen showed the girls who had transformed into Pretty Cure and were patrolling the world intensively. As a result, apart from defeating some mirror monsters that occasionally fell out of the mirror, they found no other suspicious enemies.

"That."

Puka shifted his attention from the screen back to the girl beside him and asked again in confusion.

"Why doesn't Yashu come with us, Puka?"

"Because I'm in great danger right now. Even I can't guarantee that I won't suddenly fall into the enemy camp."

The helpless girl touched the rabbit's ears and could only respond with a forced smile.

"Rather than going out and potentially causing trouble, it's better to stay here where someone can stop me at any time."

"Puka... But wouldn't this be very sad for Yashu, Puka?"

"As long as I can help Ash, I'll be very satisfied no matter what."

Looking at the relief on her face, Puka, with his ears trembling, disagreed with this statement from the bottom of his heart.

"It shouldn't be like this Puka..."

"Ah, I'm so exhausted!"

Another day of patrolling, another day of useless work. The yawning Erika and Snow White hung on Ash's neck, one on each side, with Yayoi on his side.

"Stop arguing. I'm almost figuring out what's causing the anomaly in this world's spatial readings—"

Feeling the tension coming from above, Ash had no choice but to put down the data tablet in his hand.

"You guys like this place of mine so much?"

"KKSK~"

"After all, we also—hiss—love you the most."

Even Lily and Nan would put their noses close to his neck when they passed by and take a deep breath.

"You guys really, aren't you pretending at all?"

Now that it was impossible to split himself into two physically, Ash knew that the patrol outside was all due to them, and that they were indeed working hard, so he could only accept such pampering happily and helplessly.

"But the passage we came through is now completely closed. If we want to return now, I'm afraid..."

"It's okay, Ash."

Haruka's soft fingers and sweet smile always soothe his heart immediately.

“It’s strange to say, but we don’t feel too eager to go back.”

"Whether in Ash's world or this world, you truly live among us. For my current dream, this is enough to satisfy me."

"remote……"

"Don't worry, Ash~"

Hui, who was standing next to him, also had an overflowing smile on her face as she gently placed her palm on the man's head and caressed it tenderly.

"With so many Pretty Cures here, and so many hearts capable of overflowing with happiness throughout the entire world, no matter what the problem, it will surely be solved."

"That would be nice."

But it wasn't just out of vigilance against the enemy. From the beginning to the end, or rather, when he set foot on this land, Ash felt inexplicably uneasy.

But... seeing that they were finally relaxed, especially when Huidu showed the same innocent and happy smile as before the change, Ash really couldn't interrupt the atmosphere by pouring cold water on it.

Just think of it as a way for them and try harder to stay up a little longer tonight.

"I don't know why, but I always feel sleepy very quickly after coming back lately."

"After all, you have been busy outside for a long time, go and rest quickly."

"That won't do~"

Just as he said this, Yu Jiaojie's voice rang out, and a soft and fragrant figure had already taken the lead and hugged him from behind.

"Ash, you must be thinking of secretly studying by yourself while we're resting, right?"

"Lei...how come you are always so smart at such critical moments?"

"No, we've told you before that you must get enough rest. You need to correct your bad sleeping and rest habits."

Also at the critical moment, Hanasaki Rei, who had changed her usual soft girl temperament, exerted force and actually lifted Ash from his seat.

"Just like flowers need sunlight to grow, it's an iron rule for humans to rest when they're tired. Ash must also rest well. Come on, everyone, lend a hand."

"Hey hey~ Hey hey~"

Some grabbed my arms, some lifted my ankles, and these Pretty Cures from different worlds always showed amazing tacit understanding when facing me.

"Hey, are you an army of ants that have caught prey and are transporting it to the cave?"

Despite the constant complaints, Ash was unable to resist and was neatly pressed onto the bed, covered with a blanket, and even had a blindfold gently put on him by Miyuki.

"Goodnight, Ash."

Although her voice was clearly filled with sleepiness, Miyuki still remembered to give her lover a romantic kiss on the cheek before going to bed.

"Good night."

201

Chapter 201: Pretty Cure.

"You haven't gotten up yet, are you staying in bed?"

Ash asked casually as he put his coat on.

"Yeah, even Lily-san didn't get up. It's as rare as the persistent cold last time."

"Maybe it's not a cold..."

Could it be that he had asked them for help, and subconsciously exploited them too much? Ash, reflecting on this, could only temporarily cancel his patrol mission for the day.

So at this moment when there was nothing to do, the only time that remained with Ash was the time spent with Danchun and Lei.

"Putting it on like this isn't going to work any longer. I've made up my mind! I'm going to find Mana and the others tomorrow!"

No matter what kind of Hongmen Feast the enemy might have set up, we must now break through to find out the truth! It doesn't matter what difficulties there are, it will be my turn to save them when the time comes!

"～?" Unlike before, Lei did not protest against Ash mentioning other girls during the date. She seemed to be in a good mood. She walked hand in hand with him and kicked a stone at her feet, letting it bounce back and then kicked it out again. She repeated this process, enjoying it endlessly.

"But I'm really sorry."

But he wasn't so bad as to forget who was next to him.

"Now there's just this inappropriate atmosphere. After everything is over—"

"That's not the case, Ash."

Lei shook her head slightly, seemingly unanimous. With a face full of longing for beauty, she continued, "The world here is just as full of birdsong and flowers. It feels very similar to the Hope Flower Market. Unlike the previous world full of abominable monsters, it feels so peaceful."

"When Mana and the others came to our place, did Ash learn anything from them?"

"Haha~ This is..."

"Let's have fun together here from now on~"

"This is no problem."

Unlike the last date, there was no festival or temple fair as a bonus, so the only topics the two of them could talk about were these meaningless ones.

Unlike Ash, who was constantly restless and looking around, Lei's voice, leaning on that arm, became softer and softer.

"Hey~ Ash."
