Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

Well, maybe it’s the difference between a Lagrange point and the Mariana Trench?

"Really? That seems to be the case." Ash asked and answered himself, as he recalled the past and found that it was indeed true. "It seems that no girl has ever been willing to respond to my invitation. The only people who would respond to a date with me are men."

How come only men would understand at this time and fight with me... Am I not sincere enough?

"So I thought, maybe you could change my situation?"

"Are you waiting for my answer...?" While responding to Ash's words, Hana cast her eyes towards the figure that slowly appeared from behind him.

That figure, so familiar, staggering, a familiar person holding a familiar thing, slowly approaching this side.

The person who came was none other than Teruki Yu. At this moment, she was dragging the sword that Cure Yell had lost, and although she was slowly but extremely determinedly approaching this side, she supported her legs that were gradually trembling, and walked step by step on the cement stone slope that was shattered by the battle.

Yu was very worried about Hua who had lost her trace, but at the same time she knew very well that it was impossible for a half-disabled person to find the person she was looking for. Fortunately, she happened to know of a good person nearby who was kind enough to help her find the person, but this good person might also need some help.

So she wanted to help Cure Yell who was in trouble first, but her wheelchair was stuck in place and she couldn't reach the sword she needed if she lay on the ground.

If this was just her own business, Yu might still lose the opportunity because of endless concerns and retreats, but at this moment, Yu was so eager to save people that she could only think of one goal, so she made a decision that was very simple for ordinary people but very difficult for her.

It's not about courage, it's just about a goal.

She wants to stand up.

"Precure!"

The call from behind also attracted the attention of Ash on Huashen. He was completely immersed in the invitation with Yell and he didn't even notice when Yu, whose legs were covered with blood, came so close.

"Please, please save this world!" Lifting the hilt of the sword with both hands, Yu swung it with all his might, sending it flying towards the two men entangled. "And please also help that foolish girl who only cares about others!"

"You are asking too much!" Ash was surprised that a miracle had actually happened, so he immediately turned around and tried to grab the sword in advance. However, he forgot what kind of strong lady he was holding under his knees, and his body swayed, causing his hand to be missed. Their elbows intertwined, and the lady with the smaller hand caught the flying holy sword first.

cure yell grabbed her sword.

"reputation...."

You said that I am a fool who only thinks about others, but this title is wrong, because I always have you, my family, and people like Dr. Ash who have helped me in this world. Of course I have to save the world for them!

Also, I, Cure Yell, am not some idiot!

Then Hua turned her gaze to the red warrior who was now very close to her, and her originally gentle eyes suddenly became extremely serious.

"You ask for my response? My answer is of course—"

A sword flashing with the brilliant light of tomorrow's energy slashed heavily through Time Fire's chest.

"No!"

【Bonus】Case File 41: Dumped

"No!"

This time, the person who flew backwards was a different one. Time Fire's combat suit on his chest kept exploding and flying, and he flew out with sparks and lightning all the way. He brushed past Yu who raised his hand to block in front of him, and flew far away.

As she wished, Hua did indeed give Ash a hard time.

The man lying on the ground suddenly raised his hands, indicating that he was not dead yet.

He raised his hand and touched the burnt mark on his chest. There was a deep black cut in the middle of his combat suit. Smoke and electric sparks continued to flow out from the fluid armor and energy cable layer of the suit. The Holy Sword of Melody had actually cut through his combat suit. If it was a little deeper, he would have been ripped open by this precure and his intestines would have been spilled all over the floor.

But he was not killed in that way. He only had a deep bloody scar on his body. It was obvious that she held back at the last moment.

Lying on the ruins, looking up at the pale sky, what is Ash thinking about, who played the hero yesterday and the villain today?

"Oh, she's so beautiful, isn't she—?"

"Alright, lady—" The man lying on the ground swung his arms in front of him. Ash completely ignored the injuries that would have left an ordinary person groaning and unable to get up for weeks, and with a somersault he stood up again. "Let's start the third round—um, what are you doing?"

The holy sword that had cut her was now stuck beside her, and she half-knelt in front of Yu, comforting her with her not very lively but very gentle words.

"Okay, it'll be fine, young lady." The pink-haired warrior patted the person who had mustered the courage to stand up. Only she knew how much courage it took for her to do something that was easy for ordinary people. "Your friend will be fine. I will find her, too. I promise you."

Just like Batman to Gotham City, Kamen Rider W to Fuuto, and Ultra Guard to M78, the words spoken by Precure, who is like the guardian of mankind on Earth, are naturally convincing.

"Really? Hana is a good person, and I believe she's fine... Is she really going to be fine?"

"She's fine, I promise you!"

"Hey—" Seeing that his call received no response at all, Ash amplified the loudspeaker built into his helmet and continued to shout loudly: "Do you hear me? Come and fight me again!"

"It's okay." Hua didn't even glance at the man making a scene behind her. She just continued to comfort Yu and pointed her to a path. "It's not safe here. Go over there and stay with everyone else. Your friend will be back soon."

"Use your legs, can you do that?"

"Of course, I did it just now, so of course I can do it now!"

Watching her friend, unaware of her true identity, disappear into the distance, Hua finally turned her head. When the target she faced changed from Yu to Time Fire, the smile on her face that had once held the warmth of the sun faded visibly.

It's not easy to make Precure, who always treats people with kindness, show such a scary expression.

"Ha—finally." Seeing the opposing Precure pull his sword from his side, Ash waved his hand, indicating that the fatal chest wound wouldn't prevent him from taking another round. "Finally mustering the will to fight? Wait—what are you doing?"

In front of Ash, Hua placed the Holy Sword of Melody horizontally in front of her body, spread out her upright left hand, aimed the palm at the tip of the sword, and then clasped her hands together, and her weapon disappeared into her hands.

"I won't fight you."

Without hesitation, she said this while her gaze drifted off into the distance.

"Wait, what do you mean—"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Ash saw her focused eyes and realized that she was serious, and at the same time he vaguely understood something.

"Do you know why I'm throwing my gloves at you like a knight in a duel? Why I'm inviting you like some stupid bushido? It's like when a cowboy wants to shoot someone, he'll specifically ask the other person to bring a gun and ammunition, and then arrange a duel with the other person and the audience just waiting for the whistle to blow at noon?"

As he spoke, Ash, with his own strong subjective will, became unconsciously excited, and he began to "speech" even louder.

"Because if we just want to win the battle, any despicable means are allowed. But that would not be 'beautiful' for you, and it is not what I want. I will never allow such impure things to appear in our duel!"

"You are the hero of this world, and you have worked tirelessly to protect it for eight years. I can see your heart, as beautiful as crystal. It is so attractive to a guy like me and it satisfies me!"

I fight only for my pleasure and enjoyment, and the duel with you makes me feel very happy!

"You are a legendary warrior, but your opponents are just some endlessly respawning mindless monsters, draining your vitality day after day, year after year, hoping to wear you down!"

"They can't even speak damn well! So I won't acknowledge them, simply because they are completely unworthy of being your opponents!"

As Hua's eyes gradually solidified and became clearer, Ash slapped his chest again, slapping the flame symbol that had been scarred.

"I've already recognized them, and it's impossible for you, having fought them for eight years, not to recognize them. They are the product of negativity within the human heart, and are nearly impossible to eliminate."

"Your meaningless struggle will eventually end with your fall, and nothing will be born from such a world. So - stop doing such boring things for such a boring existence!"

"Without a fighting stance that matches the enemy's, your beauty cannot be expressed, Cure Yell."

Time Fire approached her and extended his hand amid the extremely nervous gazes of all the onlookers.

"You don't have to say anything. You know you need me, you need a rival worthy of you, and I need you, because this world is a never-ending dance, and you are the reason I persevere. You are my performance object."

She didn't say anything. The extremely beautiful female warrior just looked at the hand stretched out in front of her, then looked at the audience surrounding her, and finally looked at herself.

"Do not."

she said so.

"This kind of thing is not for you to decide. To me, what you do is meaningless."

Of course I know everything, but - so what?

She looked up at the sky, gathered some strength with her feet, and soared into the blue world.

"Wait, where are you going?!"

"I'm not interested in playing your games. I have more meaningful things to do."

For example, helping my friends find their own sleep.

Looking at the safety pants under her skirt above his head, and looking at the sky above his head where she disappeared, Ash sighed and chuckled after a long time.

"Of course you would say that, because you are—"

"Precure."

【Bonus】Case File 42 Interesting entertainment

This is [TOMORROW RESEARCH], where business is extremely poor because of the eccentric personality of the attending physician and his poor hospitality. Ash, dressed in a white coat, is sitting in front of his computer in a very unprofessional posture, sliding the mouse and browsing the hottest topic on the largest chat message forum on the Internet - the new report about him and her.

The incident between Time Fire and Cure Yell is now at the top of the hot search list again. After all, as the only two heroes who can fight against the incomprehensible "Terminator" in the world, their every move attracts the attention of people all over the world.

Unlike the hype of ordinary traffic stars, it is never them who are trying to ride on the popularity, but the popularity is chasing them, especially now. Based on the incident that happened not long ago, the Internet is now flooded with criticism of the Time Fire played by Ash. He is even more condemned than cartoonists who draw bad endings, novel authors who randomly cancel their novels, and traffic stars who play with people's feelings.

Because of Time Fire's previous proactive and extreme provocative behavior, as well as his twisted and extreme remarks about everyone's favorite "cure yell", which were like those of a sasaeng fan, the reputation of this "anti-hero" who was originally unclear about good and evil has now become a rat in the sewer, and everyone is shouting at him to kill him. Even many people who were originally attracted by his capable style have turned from fans to passers-by, and then from passers-by to haters.

Now the popularity of this mysterious red warrior is only maintained by a few die-hard fans with peculiar tastes. Occasionally, when they speak out for him on the forum, they are usually drowned out by the overwhelming condemnation of a large number of cure yell fans within half a minute.

But what they probably don't know is that the person in the time fire is actually looking at the collection of messages from keyboard warriors online at this moment, occasionally taking a sip of the hot coffee in front of him, smiling and giving likes to those who say good things about him, and giving thumbs up to those who say bad things about him one by one.

Was Ash angry? Of course not. If he cared too much about this online keyboard war that had no impact on his real situation, he would have been pissed off many times in the worlds he had traveled to before.

Ash has always been indifferent.

"Okay, let's put these boring entertainment aside for now..."

After drinking the coffee he had specially prepared with a lethal concentration of sugar, Ash turned his remaining attention to the system virtual panel that popped up on the side.

Checking the text information loaded on the panel, Ash's eyebrows, which had originally relaxed due to the sweet taste on his tongue, frowned inward again.

"So, you're finally willing to tell me? Um, so you're saying this world isn't similar to the main universe?"

About half a month ago, Ash, who had almost drowned when he first arrived in this world, keenly sensed something was wrong with his countless experiences of traveling through time. Although the protagonist, Cure Yell, was a very shining character worthy of exploration, the enemies were all brainless monsters, without even a talking cadre-level character, which made Ash smell something amiss.

If this world is regarded as a "story", it is completely insufficient to support a normal plot. At most, it is a prequel that is just a background board.

[Yes, the world you are in now is like the relationship between the theatrical version of "Lost Paradise" and the TV original "Kamen Rider Faiz".]

[So for this reason, my suggestion is——]

"Don't talk about that." Ash reached out and grabbed the back of the virtual screen, his thumb digging into the cracks that spread, preventing the next words from appearing. "Otherwise, I'd be mad at you, too."

[Why?]

Seeing that the system would ask such a question, Ash smiled slightly.

"It's simple, because that person is suppressing herself, and I want to see more of her."

The dance with her mask was really fun.

"She's my Cure Yell. It doesn't matter if it's the main game or not, that's all."

The sound of bells outside the door, brought by the wind when the door was pushed open, woke Ash from his self-indulgence. He clamped the system panel in the middle, clasped his hands together, and then took the virtual panel into his palms.

To be honest, it's quite fun.

"Dr. Ash, I'm here!"

The person who came was naturally Nonoka, who had formed a patient relationship with Ash. After being treated by Ash, her body and complexion had visibly improved.

As Nonoka approached and greeted him with a somewhat clumsy but energetic voice, Ash couldn't help but smile.

"Oh."

"Wait, what do you mean by oh?" Still dissatisfied with Ash's usual terse and cold attitude, her cheeks puffed up like a pufferfish without its spines. "I always greet you warmly when you come here, Dr. Ash, you're too cold!"

"Got it." Reaching out his hand to the head of Nonoka, who was sitting opposite him with a puffy face, Ash stroked the soft and smooth pink fur, watching her make an expression as comfortable as a cat being scratched on the chin. "Incredible, really incredible.

I remember someone once told me that you shouldn't touch people's heads casually? I don't think that's true. Wouldn't she be happy to be touched?

Pretty easy to coax, isn't it?

"Hurulu~" Nonoka made a pleasant sound, but it took her half a minute to realize that she was being taken advantage of. She immediately blushed and backed away quickly, her feet staring at the ground. "No, no, Dr. Ash! You can't just touch a girl's head! It's a foul!"

Seeing Hua frantically using both hands to fix her long hair that was covering her right eye, Ash couldn't help but burst out laughing.

As time went by, Ash found his patient more and more interesting. Not only was she very responsive, but she also had some shining points that ordinary people could not see. Although she always thought that she was just an ordinary woman, in Ash's eyes, that was not the case.

He unconsciously shifted some of his attention from Precure to her, and ended up becoming a bit addicted...

But what does it matter? I've been a villain in other worlds for so long, turning against the enemy, stabbing people in the back, and being a hairy thing. What's wrong with enjoying a little bit from someone who makes people happy?

After all, this isn't a pretty good sideshow, is it?
