Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

Slightly grasping the hilt of the sword in his right hand, which had slipped due to sweat, Eddie took a deep breath, and then -

In front of Ash, he angrily threw the sword in his hand to the ground.

"This is a scam!"

Eddie's angry outburst set off a cloud of cooing pigeons overhead.

"Hey, what the hell—" Ash looked at him with a look of "Is this some kind of novel tactic?" Eddie started flailing his arms and legs in a frenzy. "Didn't I want to talk to you? Why did we have to get into this situation where it's either you or me?"

"Aren't you trying to strike first? Of course I have to defend myself."

"Yeah, yeah, that's what I wanted... I wanted you, you idiot!" He grabbed Ash's collar and yelled, looking completely devastated. "I was just telling you this, and you were about to pull out your gun. I pulled out my sword in self-defense, you bastard! You bastard! You overly sensitive bastard!"

"What? Just for this? Why don't you explain it clearly? You're drooling." Seeing that Eddie had simply given up, Ash, who had also lost interest, had no choice but to give up in boredom. "I thought you were one of those people who's been collecting darkness from me."

"You didn't even give me a chance to explain, you smug bastard!"

So tired... It's really tiring to communicate with this guy. The thought process of this self-centered guy is really weird.

Eddie, who was almost exhausted, gasped for breath, muttered a few words in dissatisfaction, and finally turned the topic back to the main topic.

"So, there really is someone in different worlds collecting the dark, negative energy of that world, and that person is you?"

"Yes, it's me." Ash, unconsciously pointing to himself, said, "I am Lord Ash, whose name remains unchanged."

"What if I tell you to stop?" Eddie, picking up the Dragon Fencing Sword and turning it back into a pendant, turned serious again, but it didn't do much for Ash. "If you keep going like this, something bad will happen, and you'll be in trouble too."

"Of course it's 1000%... impossible." Ash remained calm, though a hint of defiance crossed his eyes. "I don't need anyone telling me what to do. As for bad things and misfortunes? Do you think I care?"

Eddie shook his head silently, then took out a miraculous device from his pocket that was obviously not from this world.

"Why, are you planning on telling your superiors about me? I'd be more than happy to offer you a roundup package or something."

"After all, I'm the kind of Flying O-style protagonist who will mess up the original plot to my heart's content. If you guys think you're some kind of moralistic police officer, you have every reason to act."

"No, I'm not planning on doing that." With his back to Ash, Eddie deleted the navigation record without hesitation. "I'm not allowed to be so involved. Besides, I saw that those little girl warriors truly trust you. You can't win their hearts by simply lying. The commander told me so."

"Besides, I think you're not a bad person. This is just based on my personal intuition."

Chapter 196: The Girl Looking Forward to the Future, Lei

Well, he must have been shocked to hear someone say something like that! I'm so handsome!

He was a little lost in self-indulgence, and didn't care whether Ash behind him was listening or not, he continued to talk to himself.

"But if you plan to leave like this, I can only tell you that your presence is becoming increasingly dazzling in the eyes of some people."

"There will definitely be more people targeting you on the road ahead—" Just as Eddie was about to give a stern warning, he froze in place while turning around because he found that the place where the person behind him had originally stood was now empty.

"This guy thinks he's Batman—no!"

Eddie opened his eyes wide suddenly, because it was not until the other party left that he suddenly remembered that he did not come to him just to say goodbye.

"You—you—bastard—!"

Hearing the voice, Ash turned around in surprise. The figure standing behind him had now disappeared due to the distance.

"My little shark! You're a jerk who never returns what you borrow!"

"Give me back my Beast King Shark Magic Bullet Key!"

The scene was filled with the sobbing of a man whose enhancement items were taken away. It was heartbreaking and moving to tears, except for the policemen who had been a little nervous recently. When they saw Eddie yelling, they immediately put him in the police car for "noise pollution" to prevent him from disturbing others.

"Ah."

Only then did Ash remember that he had stolen the opponent's Beast King Magic Bullet Key.

Come to think of it, this kind of thing happened in the past. Mao left with props that might be useful or become useless as the plot progressed, and then he put them in a huge inventory and forgot about them. Even when people came to him, he had no idea what he was talking about.

"Um...."

He flicked the magic bullet key from his thumb into the air and watched it fall back into his palm under the influence of gravity.

Forget it, I can just give it back to you when we meet again.

"Cough-cough-"

After coughing twice, Ash released the hand that was covering his mouth, looked at the bright red on his palm, and finally wiped it clean on his pants as if nothing had happened. Then he turned around to develop the photos he took with his camera today.

“Although it’s better than the pink technology I passed by, but…”

In my eyes, the scenes in the photos in my hands that are consistent with my memory have unknowingly begun to fade and become gradually pale.

So fast.

"Is it still necessary?"

“Ash——!”

The familiar voice calling from behind made Ash see someone who shouldn't be there at this time. It was Hanasaki Rei, who was still in her school uniform and running towards him breathlessly.

"Today is not a day off, it's still class time." Ash began to tease Lei who was joking with him. "What's wrong, have you decided to be a bad boy, so are you going to start skipping classes?"

"No! Seriously, I've asked the teacher for leave and I'm in no mood to go to class!" The girl's anxious expression didn't seem fake. "Mom! Someone called and told me she collapsed and is in the hospital!"

"But this place is still a little far from the hospital, so Ash, can you——"

"Pa!" Before she could finish her words, Ash had already taken out a helmet from somewhere and threw it into her hands.

"boarding!"

Have too many women been riding in the back seat of my car lately?

When the motorcycle was driving against the strong wind and at a dangerous speed on the road and between the traffic, the girl behind him who should have been timid and afraid did not shout out. She just leaned forward quietly and hugged Ash's waist more tightly, as if this could give her more courage and make time stop forever in this quiet moment.

Although they both had many things they wanted to say to each other, at such an urgent moment and at such a time, neither of them spoke, but just felt the strong wind blowing across their faces.

"Thank you....Mom! Mom!"

Leaning on the motorcycle, Ash watched her rush into the hospital in a panic. After accidentally meeting her father, the two of them, one big and one small, rushed to the ward upstairs in a hurry.

Did she thank me specifically just now?

Ash wanted to take something out of his trouser pocket so that he could put it in his mouth to relieve his inexplicable sadness, but after searching for a long time, he remembered that he had no habit of smoking.

"Has it become unfamiliar?"

System, how much game time do I have left?

[Suggestion: Do something that makes you happy.]

"So, let me choose." After patiently waiting, Ash finally saw Lei's heartbeat, and compared to the worries he had when he came here, he whistled. "Hey, I'm just kidding."

The matter between this world and Pretty Cure has been almost resolved...but if I can't finally punch "Duane" who dared to mock me in the face, I'd be letting down my identity as a constantly resurrected fun guy!

"Irritability is all gone?"

"Yeah!" Lei was now actively responding to Ash. "Mr. Ash, Ash! I'm going to be a big sister!"

"?"

After Lei's explanation, Yaxiu also understood that it was Lei's mother who found out after a check-up in the hospital that she was not sick, but pregnant again.

"Wow, Ash! The fruit of love turns out to be such a wonderful thing... Could it be that Zijera's pollen has such an effect?"

"Of course there is no such function."

Lei is now like a flower that is illuminated by the bright sunshine after a rainstorm. Her face is full of smiles, and she wants to share her happiness with any passerby. Although considering her actual cheerfulness, this kind of thing is destined to be just a thought.

"Is it really so happy to be a big sister?" Unfortunately, Ash was destined not to be able to enjoy this happiness. After all, he was an only child, and he didn't think it would be happy to have more brothers and sisters taking away his already limited "resources".

"Of course I'm happy!" However, unlike Ash, the man could see the stars twinkling in Lei's eyes as she looked forward to it. "I'm really looking forward to it. Will it be a brother or a sister?"

"But whether it's a brother or sister, they'll definitely be very cute~ When Ash sees him/her, he/she will definitely like him/her!"

"It's good that you introduce them to Erika and the others, but forget about me. I'm really not interested."

There is not enough time.

"Really, Ash is so heartless!"

Lei, pouting and a little annoyed, did not wait for Ash's response. Instead, it seemed as if he was quietly waiting for her reply.

They needed a conversation, and while Rei was great at starting one, Ash was the opposite.

Lei maintained a smile on her face, and the wind around her blew up her twin ponytails and the hem of her school uniform. She quietly put her hands behind her back and took the initiative to approach Ash.

"Manager Ash, I really like it."

I really like this casual and happy atmosphere and time.

Because, this is exactly the same as we were in the past.

Chapter 197 The Last Daily Life

"Really? I like it too."

"What do you mean by like?"

"everything."

Smacking his lips, Ash changed the subject.

"Is it okay for you not to be with your mother?"

"Hey, Dad is happier than me right now~" Lei even covered her mouth and laughed happily twice when she said this. "It's also important to leave some private space for adults!"

"I'm really looking forward to it! I'm going to be a big sister soon... Hehe, hehehe."

Lei, who was now giggling, was completely different from her cautious and reserved appearance in the past. It seemed that even her cherry-colored eyes behind the glasses had widened a lot.

As Ash witnessed her continuous growth, the "weakest Pretty Cure in history" who was so timid that she forgot to fight when she first met him has now become a very outstanding warrior.

"Is that so?" Ash rubbed his lips with his fingers, and thought of Yueying Lily that night. She might not have done the same thing just out of momentum.

If everyone is changing, then my efforts are not in vain.

"Okay, calm down." Raising his hand to gently give Lei's little head a reminder, Ash pointed to the patients who were gradually starting to look over here.

"We're just standing here talking outside the hospital. How silly!" Looking around, a bit embarrassed, Ash, remembering how he (the demon) had once stolen an entire operating room's worth of equipment, continued. "You don't have anything else to do right now, do you? It's not quite time for me yet, so why not go somewhere convenient to chat?"

"Of course, my treat."

"Then I won't be polite!"

Well, it seems there is no such thing as unfamiliarity.

"Kirakira Patisserie, um..." Ash said the rather tongue-twisting name as he carefully selected the desserts on the menu. Since he had no experience with desserts, he simply chose a few at random and placed his order with the waiter in front of him, who was wearing a bunny headdress. "Let's have that... cream cake and parfait."

"Rabbit cream cake and Pegasus parfait, fresh from the oven!"

Of course, all of them were ordered for Lei.

"Ash, don't you want it?" Lei's eyes narrowed into a thin line of incomparable comfort as she shoved a spoonful of parfait mixed with a little cream into her mouth. "It's delicious, but if it's just me..."

"You know I never care about this kind of thing, so just eat yours." Lei, puffing up her cheeks as she enjoyed the dessert in front of her, gave Ash the satisfaction of feeding a pet. "I still prefer things with a more exciting flavor."

"But Ash's excitement is still too early for others, right?" Lei naturally thought of the black hole coffee brewed by Ash, and the miserable scene when she almost vomited gastric juice when she enjoyed it for the first time without knowing anything. Trembling all over, Lei hurriedly stuffed another spoonful of parfait into her mouth.

Seriously, what girl would prefer bitterness over sweetness?

"The store manager's craftsmanship is impeccable. If he makes a few small changes, it will definitely be more popular!"

Although it seems to be well-known in a certain circle of weird taste lovers, and some people even come here specifically to taste the flavor, this is still too weird.

"I don't have that plan, but you can learn from me and then improve it. How about I teach you how to make coffee and cocktails?"

"Well, sure! If Ash is willing to teach me." Lei raised her head suddenly, and nodded repeatedly with eyes full of anticipation.

"I was just kidding."

So, the sulking Lei started to grumble and wolf down the parfait and cake in front of her.

"It's been a long time."

Ash broke the silence himself. "It's like this, eating something and chatting, just to pass the time happily."

When I was still in Nasta, I had a lot of fun as the store manager, playing and joking with the employees, but now Nasta is just a ruin.

I didn’t cherish this kind of leisure time when I enjoyed it before, but now I miss it after losing it for a while.
