With a smile on his face, Ash scooped a few more spoonfuls into his mouth.
Chapter 64 The Value of Promise
Ash, who had been prepared to chew tasteless gum, discovered that he actually tasted something.
"hot....?"
"Well, at the beginning, I asked Rikka about Mr. Ash's actual taste. Combined with the way I saw you randomly adding seasonings that time, I guessed it!"
"Mr. Ash, your taste isn't strange, but your taste is too bland, right?"
"..."
Ash was silent for a moment, almost as if he agreed.
"So I made spicy food. The spicy taste is not taste but pain. What do you think of this, Mr. Ash?"
So, is this a special dish made for me?
In past trips, someone had even prepared special dishes for him.
For example, the number one chef in the universe used legendary ingredients caught from some unknown planet and created a dish that even a tough guy like Ash could taste delicious. That time, Ash felt like a feast was unfolding in his mouth, and the food was so delicious that he almost chewed his tongue.
Of course, Aida Ai's cooking is still not as good as those of these masters, but precisely because of its ordinariness, it gives people a sense of security, like a home-cooked meal made by mother.
Although not moved to tears.
“Make it spicier next time.”
"Well, if you still want to eat it, come to the Pig Tail Pavilion. I'll make it for you no matter how many times!"
But at least it's delicious and real.
"Pretty Cure, you win this time."
Ash swallowed the last of the spicy bite at the sight of the girls cheering together.
At least I don't have to say this against my will.
"Hah—we lost?!"
Regina, who had just woken up, was immediately shocked. She didn't understand how she lost and couldn't help but look at Ash. After all, he had just promised her!
"I'm sorry, Princess, but that's the truth. When you're ready, there will always be things that are beyond your control."
Ash shrugged innocently, as if all this had nothing to do with him.
Although the development of the situation is out of your control, in fact it has always been under my control, so after rounding it off, things are still proceeding as usual. Princess, what do you think of this explanation?
Of course, the latter sentence cannot be said.
"Okay Regina, we won. It's time to return the royal gems to us?"
"But...."
After hearing Mana's words, Regina still wanted to keep her promise with the other party so she took out the last royal gem. However, the more she looked at the gem, the more reluctant she became and the less she wanted to hand it over to the other party.
“I really want it…”
She instinctively felt that this must be something extremely important to her, and instinctively didn't want to give it to anyone else. But facing her wanting to go back on her word, Liuhua and the others couldn't bear it.
"We knew that the match with you was full of traps, but we still competed because we trusted you!"
"You seem to be betraying this trust?"
"No...."
Having also woken up from a coma and inexplicably lost some of his memories, Ira now feels a palpitation when he sees Ash for some reason. Feeling upset and depressed, he decides to fan the flames after seeing the wavering and tangled emotions on Regina's face.
"If you don't want to keep an agreement, can't you just break it?"
"Can it be broken?"
"Just take what you want, and kill anyone who gets in your way! Besides, you are the daughter of His Majesty the Selfish King."
Yes, I am Regina, the princess of the Selfish Organization. Since this is what I want, I don’t care what others think!
"Really? If you teach others bad things like that, that novelist will be so angry that he'll draw his sword like a raging fire."
Just as Regina's thoughts were quietly shifting, Ash silently took out his card box from his pocket and stood up.
"Regina, do you really think it's okay to just break something like a promise?"
"How to say?"
"If you do this, not only will you completely betray their trust and make others sad for you, but Princess, didn't you just want to be friends with them not long ago?"
Hearing Ash's words, Regina did see a hint of worry in their eyes. Even now that they were in a hostile position, the girls' mood remained unchanged.
"But, I'm the daughter of a selfish king who plans to invade the world, but I want to be friends with Pretty Cure. Isn't that strange in itself?"
"Ha, the son of a murderer must also be a murderer. Who decides that?" Ash exaggeratedly spread his arms, finally pointing to the person on the other side. "Besides, as long as both parties are willing, friendship can transcend race, planets, and even worlds. Anyone in the world can become a friend!"
"That's right, Regina, please return to your original form!"
Hearing Ash's words and the call of love, Regina's already wavering heart began to waver violently.
"Your path can only be decided by yourself. The most important thing is, Regina, what are you thinking in your heart?"
I, I want to be friends with Mana and the others!
Seeing Regina's obvious hesitation due to his words, Ash smiled with satisfaction.
There are always some people who like to watch, or even act as the devil's pushers behind the scenes, causing those who were originally as noble as angels to gradually step into the abyss of darkness and be tainted with ugly colors. They call it appreciating evil and depravity.
Ash completely disdained this kind of thing because the way he liked to play was the exact opposite.
Ha, this feeling of guiding others to turn from evil to good is super fun no matter how many times it happens!
"As an outsider, don't point fingers here—"
"Did I let you talk?"
Before Ila could finish the second half of his sentence, he was retorted. He didn't know when the hand on his shoulder began to close and exert force like a hydraulic press. Ila felt his bones creaking and cold sweat broke out on his head. He almost cried out.
"The value of a promise varies from person to person. It can be as light as a feather or as heavy as Mount Tai. Regina, how much do you think your promise is worth?"
"I, I don't know..."
Seeing Regina's wandering eyes, Ash decided to push the last straw.
He raised his hand and threw his card box over without hesitation.
"Okay."
Under everyone's gaze, the black card box drew a trajectory in the air and finally landed on Ai's hand, who hurriedly reached out to catch it. Seeing the card box in her hand, she subconsciously exclaimed.
"Mr. A-Ash?!"
The black card box, which looked ordinary in appearance, seemed to emit great heat in Ai's palm. Holding this "hot potato" carefully in her arms, the girl raised her head and looked at Ash in disbelief.
Chapter 65
Why, can you do it so decisively?
"After all, it's just a box for cards. It's no big deal."
Hearing what Ash said, Ai suddenly felt that the card box in her hand was even more valuable.
"My promise is still worth something, so I fulfilled my promise."
"Regina, do you want to come with me?"
Hearing these words, the bright red in the princess' eyes finally faded and turned back to her original aquamarine blue. She closed her eyes and made up her mind to throw the royal gem over.
"Thanks, Regina!"
"I...I just kept my promise to you!"
Seeing the surprised and happy faces of the Pretty Cure girls, and the admiring eyes of the men around her, Regina suddenly felt that while she had lost a lot, she seemed to have gained more!
The five gems gathered together indeed triggered a strange phenomenon. There was some kind of mysterious attraction between them. After gathering together, they turned into a beam of light that shot straight into the sky and quickly flew to the other side of the earth.
"Ah, gems!"
Regina, who sensed what was happening, left first. When the Pretty Cures were about to leave this world created by the selfish monster, they looked back for some reason and saw a bad scene.
Mamo and Ira stood in front of Ash, with crooked smiles on their lips that didn't look friendly at all.
"Oh, I want to go home and sleep. Could you please move aside?"
Faced with the overflowing malice in front of him, Ash narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he roughly guessed what the two were planning to do, Ashhas decided to show mercy and give them a chance.
"If you don't get out of the way, I won't show mercy next time."
"Stop being so arrogant, you bastard!"
They saw with their own eyes that Ash really threw the card box to the Pretty Cure in front of everyone. Even people like Ira and Ira admired him a little, and at the same time, they felt that it was time for them to take revenge and avenge their previous humiliation.
"Even if you can use strange gadgets, without transformation, humans are still humans. There's no way you can defeat us!"
Mamo, who also felt that she was able to do it again, was looking down on others. Although she looked superior, she had not forgotten the humiliation that Ash had inflicted on them before!
He actually relied on his own strength and the princess's support to snatch my parfait several times, making me afraid to eat snacks in the base. Do you know that women need desserts to support themselves?
When talking about the history of being bullied, Ira was also filled with blood and tears and had nowhere to cry.
We were clearly in the same class, but they treated us like little brothers, ordering us around. It would have been fine if they just ordered us around, but they also asked me to go shopping! Do you know how hurtful it was when a police officer stopped me with a big bag and asked, "Where are your parents?"?
Not to mention that just because I said some unpleasant words behind my back, you actually called us out and beat us up. You are a vindictive villain, and we are going to take revenge on you today!
The two men, completely unaware that they were also the vengeful villains they mentioned, began to approach Ash with ferocious smiles.
I have to slap you in the face today and break your arms!
"I'm talking to you guys." Ash, unfazed by the two's actions, couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead. "I knew you might be a little unintelligent, but I didn't expect you to be this stupid."
Not to mention anything else, even if I really am the kind of weakling who can't even tie a chicken without transforming, if you hit me, what if I go back and tell the princess about it, won't you still end up in trouble?
Besides, do you really think those Pretty Cure girls nearby will just stand by and watch?
"What did you say!?"
Uncle can tolerate this, but aunt can’t! The two of them punched Ash in anger.
"not good!"
The girls, sensing something was wrong, didn't hesitate for a second and rushed towards Ash to block the attack.
We must protect Mr. Ash!
However, Ash held the fist tightly in his hand, which was powerful enough to knock an ordinary person away.
“What—!?”
The two men hurriedly tried to pull their hands back, but were horrified to find that they were like being clamped by a vise on the workbench and wound up, and they could not get free at all.
How is it possible—how could a human being have such power!
Suddenly, Ira remembered the scene when they first met, when the other party beat the selfish monster with his bare hands.
"Too light."
Ash gently turned the full bottle of Steel Tank between his fingers and dropped it back into his pocket. Listening to the two people's wailing, he slowly began to rotate his hands in reverse time.
How can he fight without transforming? The answer is that his physical body is his new form. Not to mention that the guy who fought the final boss in his physical body would be in trouble if someone forgot that he also has the punching power and jumping power of the Showa Cyborg.
"It feels like déjà vu for some reason." Thinking of the first time, Ai and Rika looked at each other and saw the same emotion in each other's eyes.
"This is what a real fist should look like!"
Just as the two men were sweating on their foreheads and were trying to break free by bursting out of energy, the hands holding them were suddenly released, causing them to collide with each other at the same time. Before they could curse, a pair of fists whistling and breaking through the wind buried themselves heavily in their abdomens.
“Guuuuu…!”
In an instant, unspeakable pain spread from the stomach to the brain, completely interrupting their thinking. Their stomachs were churning, and they knelt on the ground with painful expressions, vomiting the little food they had just eaten in the form of mosaics.
“What a waste.”
Ash, expressionless, took two steps back with a look of disgust to prevent them from vomiting on him.
"You bastard—ugh...!"
