Facing serious injury or even worse, Erika widened her eyes in fear. Just as the spike was getting closer and closer to her, a red light passed by her, narrowly brushing past the destructive tail spike and avoiding it.

"Hoo, haa ...

"W-why is it you!?"

Erika was shocked. You said you deceived Goki's heart and turned her brother into a monster because you were a bad villain. Why are you saving me now?

At this time, the girl realized how bad the other person's posture was when he held her under the armpits and knees. The girl's heart hidden under her carefree attitude was subtly hurt, and she started to make a big fuss and make a scene.

"You've hurt Goki's heart, and you actually—you actually treated a lady like this! Hurry up and put your mind at ease, you belt-wearing spider-web-headed pervert, you lolita-loving pervert! Pervert! Pervert!"

Chapter 68 The Devil's Play

"Oh."

Ash responded with an unusually indifferent tone and immediately let go of his hand. Erika fell to the ground with a groan.

"What the hell? It hurts!"

"You were the one who asked me to let go." Ash's response was still indifferent. If there was a reason, it was probably because his heart was also hurt by Erika's "violent words".

Ash naturally felt uncomfortable as he was called a pervert for saving someone out of kindness, so he was even more dissatisfied with Erika's self-proclaimed title.

"You're the only one who's a lady. I think you're a lady crane, right?"

"you--"

"You even called me a lolita, huh." Even through the spiderweb mask, Erika could almost see the disdainful look from beneath it. "A noisy little dwarf like you, you talk like who would love you? Anyone who marries someone like you who only causes trouble will be truly unlucky."

“Marine—ah…”

Lei, who was worried about her friend, came over and watched in shame the strange scene of Eri quarreling with her enemy.

"Who, who is this unlucky little dwarf who only causes trouble?" Erika momentarily forgot about Timmons's identity as an enemy. She blushed like anyone whose vulnerability was touched. "I'm not like you, a dark-minded person. My sister is a famous model, so of course I have people who like me!"

"Like? Oh, for example?"

"For example...for example..." Feeling the overly piercing gaze directed at her, Erika was speechless for a moment. After all, Lei still had a crush on the owner of the cafe, so what about herself who always said she would flirt with her?

"No!" Erika, reacting suddenly, strode forward. The girl, who had originally wanted to grab the other man's collar, couldn't reach his neck even when she stood on tiptoe, so she had to grab Ash's breastplate and shake him. "I almost let you get away with it, come on!"

Pointing at the monster that had lost its target and was now destroying the surrounding environment, Erika shouted at Ash, "You're the one who caused this. Why don't you tell me what to do?"

"You're the ally of justice, aren't you?" Ash raised his head, pushing Erika's hand but failing to move it away. "And now you're asking me, a villain, how to defeat evil? Are you crazy?"

"I don't care about that kind of thing. If you saved me, you have to tell me!"

Faced with Erika's unreasonable behavior, Ash made an unhappy "tsk" sound and turned his gaze to the monster below. After all, he did go a little too far in order to test Dune's background, not to mention that the result made him very unhappy.

But luckily, I had a backup plan.

In front of the girl, Ash took out a remote switch device from behind his back.

Fortunately, I have considered the possibility that things may get out of my control, so I buried a micro bomb on the seal early in the morning. Now, I can completely destroy the seal by just pressing the button. After the contract is terminated, I can ask Guangmei and others to purify it if there is any problem.

"In the end, I have to come——"

Just as Ash was about to press the switch, the monster that was originally busy destroying things suddenly turned around and shot a ray of light from its chest, which was surging with power, directly towards Ash.

"Wow!" The sudden attack scared Erika so much that she sat on the ground again. Ash, who was bitten by a snake, instinctively raised his hand to dodge.

But when he withdrew his hand, his expression became even gloomier as he looked at the switch that had been broken into two pieces.

"Asshole..."

Turning his gaze towards the monster below, Ash saw that the mouth on the monster's funny round face was opening and closing, as if conveying some information.

"You are great. I look forward to the day when I can officially meet you."

Following the movement of the other person's mouth, Ash read out the words word by word and clenched his teeth.

Oh, am I being provoked?

"Well, no—"

The monster, behaving strangely, suddenly began to struggle, kneeling on the ground with its ferocious hands holding its round head, as if it was fighting with itself.

Ash was stunned for a moment before realizing it. That's right, it must be the boy inside who was struggling with the being controlling his body! After all, although a connection had been established, it was only a partial power; it wasn't him who had actually arrived! The infinite water would eventually run out!

If this kid wants to win the fight, he must strengthen his consciousness.

"Hey!" Turning up the armor's loudspeaker to the maximum, Ash shouted towards the monster. "Think about your sister, think about what you're doing now!"

"Ugh!" Mingtang Yuangao, who was sealed in the crystal ball embedded in the monster's chest, showed a look of pain on his face, but he did begin to react.

"It's so scary—I'm afraid of surgery...but everyone is so happy that I can see hope of recovery. How can I even say I'm afraid now?"

"My sister has sacrificed a lot for me, and I don't want her to see me like this..."

"Brother..." The girl opened her mouth wide when she heard the painful self-narration from her eldest brother.

Have you always thought so?

"But now I'm free!"

The subject suddenly changed, and the monster kneeling on the ground suddenly stood up. The spikes on its back flew out like a cluster missile, trailing thick smoke and pointing directly at where the Pretty Cure was at the moment.

The girls subconsciously closed their eyes in a defensive reaction, but when they opened their eyes, they saw Timmons, who had his back to them, stretching out a spider-web-like energy shield in front of him, trying to block the exploding sparks in front of him as quickly as possible.

"Ti-Timmons, why!?"

"Why is there such a thing as a why?" Ash was struggling to respond as he was straining to deliver the shield's power. "If not, I'd be in range too, huh!"

This Duen really doesn't show any mercy to his subordinates!

No, there are only a few villain bosses who can treat their subordinates as their own brothers, clearly distinguish between rewards and punishments, and protect their subordinates with passion. It’s better to say that since you are so decent, why don’t you apply for a job with the good guys!

If I have to say, I really prefer someone like Regina to be a boss or something. She is generous and gullible, and very easy to coax and will stroke people's hair - gu!

Ash, who was in a state of panic, was not careful for a moment and the shield in his hand exploded on the spot and was blown away.

"Damn it, what did this guy do!"

Even though they were enemies, the girls still felt very uncomfortable when they saw the people protecting them being blown away. They immediately rushed up, but were then hit head-on with heavy punches and knocked back.

"Pretty Cure, Timmons!"

His heart tightened, and Wu Mu subconsciously called out the man's name and ran towards the landing direction.

Chapter 69: The Third Pretty Cure

“oh my back!”

Lying on the ground like a salted fish, Ash turned over and couldn't help pressing his palm towards his lower back.

What's going on? It seems like ever since I transformed into Timmons, all the attacks are coming towards my back!

Ash, who had just climbed out of the pit, opened his eyes and saw Itsuki running towards him. He gritted his teeth and shouted at him, "What are you doing? Get away from him!"

"But - you guys!" The strong wind around him made Wu Mu subconsciously raise his arms to block in front of him. Lei, who was hit hard, flew past him. The girl screamed and was easily knocked away like a basketball.

Seeing the monster approaching him, Ash twisted his fingers, ready to use spider silk to pull him away at any time, but the monster bypassed him with a very clear goal and went straight for the Pretty Cure behind him.

"This year's Pretty Cure isn't any good."

As the monster walked past him, Ash could even hear a man speaking with a slightly amused voice.

"Duen! Damn it--" Ash, who was let go, became even more angry. He smashed his clenched fists on the ground, leaving spider-web-like cracks.

"This guy is already amazing, and now he knows martial arts and stuff—this is outrageous!"

Dodging the blade that was slashing at her back, taking away some blue hair, Erika looked back with lingering fear, lowered her body, and tried her best to punch the opponent together with Lei, but was twisted away by the extremely nimble steps, and then was whipped out by the tail from behind.

"Oops--"

By the time they realized something was wrong, it was already too late. The monster extended two gun-like parts from its back, and a red to black light condensed at the top of the muzzle, aiming directly at the two girls.

Faced with the two beams of light flying from inside, the terrified girl who fell to the ground could no longer withstand the attack!

"------"

Silent screams streaked through the air, and the piercing light almost blinded Goki's unprotected eyes. When the light faded, the two Pretty Cures were lying powerlessly in a deep pit filled with thick smoke. The land around the girls showed signs of crystallization due to the high temperature. They were lying in the hellish environment with bruises all over their bodies, and only the strong will that they had been tempered was still supporting the girls who persevered.

"Pretty Cure!"

No, this is not what my brother expected!

"Stop it now, brother, you are definitely not the kind of person who would build your happiness on the suffering of others!"

Wu Mu ran in front of the two girls and opened his arms to block them from the monster!

"Didn't you notice?!" Seeing Wu Mu's reckless behavior, Ash hurriedly struggled to stand up. "This is already a battlefield. It's dangerous enough for you. Are you so eager to die? Get out of here!"

"No—I don't want to just watch!" Remembering what he'd said to Poppy earlier, Itsuki bit his lip and suppressed his fear. "There's so much I want to protect: my family, the dojo, my friends as Pretty Cure, and you! It's all part of that 'so much'!"

One step, two steps, Wu Mu slowly approached the monster that was staring at him.

"Brother, please wake up quickly and become your gentle self again!"

As if it heard Wu Mu's words, the manic monster actually calmed down for a moment.

Great, my brother heard my voice——

Before Wu Mu had time to be happy, he happened to meet the red eyes in that funny round head, and an uncontrollable chill instantly crept up his body.

No, the person in this look is definitely not my brother!

“————!”

Facing the monster that was about to punch him, Ash raised his hand to shoot out spider silk to pull her back, but the violent movement caused pain in his back, causing him to fall to the ground.

Damn it, my back—it gave up at the crucial moment?!

'No, it's because your body functions have deteriorated.'

Ash stretched out his hand with all his strength but still couldn't reach it. Just as the shadow was about to cover the girl's entire body, a small figure rushed in front of the girl and opened the shield to block the attack!

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The defense that Poppy put out with all her might only lasted for a short while, merely deflecting the opponent's attack to her feet. Then, after the shield was shattered, the punch that came down blew her and the elf away.

"Popley, why!"

Wu Mu, holding Poply in his arms, rolled several times on the ground. The girl looked at the elf in his arms who saved her in surprise. Even though Poply's eyes were filled with tears, she still tried to appear strong.

"I'm the same as Goki! I have a lot of things I want to protect, I want to protect my friends, I want to protect Pretty Cure, I want to protect the tree of the heart, I want to protect Goki!"

"Even if I didn't protect it well, I still want to work harder to help everyone more!"

The voice was blurred by the sobs caused by tears, but the elf's pure heart was transmitted to Wu Mu's heart without any hindrance.

"Popli..."

My mood is the same as yours.

"Oh, are they new elves? There weren't so many elves before." A completely different voice came out of the monster's mouth. It continued to approach the girl step by step, but the other party was not as scared as it thought.

"I'm not afraid of you anymore!"

Wu Mu, who was holding Poppy, took the initiative to stand up and still stood firmly in front of the Pretty Cure who had lost her power.

"Whoever you are, return my brother to me!"

"You can't do that." The monster paused, then continued incoherently after a long pause. "Still holding on? Even with such a strong look in your eyes, you, a mere human, can't do anything."

"That's not right, Doon!" A high-pitched voice caught the monster's attention. Ash stood up, holding his waist, his tone filled with passion. "The people I choose are not as shameful as you say. I have always believed in their potential miracles!"

I have always believed in the possibility of heroes and hero reserves!

Okay, Wu Mu, if the time is right, it’s time to let him see it!

"Even if I don't have the power, I will protect you!"

"Protect everyone who is most important to me!"

The moment Goki made up her mind and loudly declared the words of her heart, dazzling golden light emanated from her chest and Poppy's chest at the same time, intertwining and sublimating. The monster and Ash had to raise their hands to block out the light that was too dazzling for the darkness.

"This, this is?"

Bathed in the warmth of the sun, Wu Mu didn't react to what was happening for a moment, but Popley was already overjoyed.
