Come to think of it, Seiji has been acting weird lately... Could it be because he's become a Pretty Cure too?!

"Well, mainly." The yellow-haired girl lowered her forehead and clasped her hands between her knees, rubbing her palms together a little embarrassedly. "Because..."

"Why? Is it because you can't tell me?"

"No!" Yuuko looked up suddenly, her cheeks flushed red as she stared at Kei. "Because—if I tell Kei and Hime-chan that I'm a Pretty Cure..."

I don't know why, but—

"So, so embarrassing!"

This inexplicable shame, like telling her best friend the color of her underwear, has been preventing her from confessing to the two of them until now.

"What?!" The Elf Ribbon, who was listening in, was stunned upon hearing the reason. "But, you just said you told that Precure person named Ash about your identity!"

It is very dangerous to let others know the true identity of Pretty Cure, not to mention telling a dangerous character like Ash who is actually an "enemy"!

If you are obviously shy to talk to us, why tell him!

"I don't think Mr. Ash is a bad person."

Although some people are weird, some don't pay attention to details and are actually rude...but I still think so.

"But!" Hearing this, Hui, who was inexplicably competitive and somewhat indignant, "questioned" Yuko: "Why did you tell him first and then tell me?"

"Because," Yuko explained matter-of-factly. "Keiko is a close friend, and it's embarrassing to say it out loud."

"Ash is a stranger I just met. We got along very easily, so I told him."

"What kind of reason is that..." The girl pouted without hesitation and stretched out her hand in front of Yuko. "In this case, Sweet Angel has also joined our Happiness Charge Pretty Cure—"

“That’s great.”

Curled up on the sofa next to her, Snow White, who had been silent until then, suddenly spoke up. "In this case, the Pretty Cure of Hikari-no-Oka will be just two people again."

"Hime!" Hui became anxious upon hearing this. "No! No matter what Hime is like, we will never exclude you!"

"No, I'm not complaining." The girl, who had always been very noisy, shook her head at her with an overly "calm" look. "I'm just happy for you guys right now."

Even the gods have said that although there are many Light Transformation Mirrors, each Pretty Cure has a unique one... There is no way anyone else would give the right to transform to a shameful guy like me.

"Well... if I lose my transformation device and can't become Pretty Cure, there's nothing I can do about it."

Besides, having committed such a heinous mistake, I am not qualified to be friends with good people like you.

"If you were good friends, you would definitely be more useful to me if you could become a team."

"Xiaoji..."

"Shirayuki-kun~!" Yuko Omori called out the other person's full name seriously, holding down the blue-haired girl who was about to run away with a trembling body, and pressed her on both sides of the shoulders, making her look into her eyes that had lost some of their "color".

I had only heard the story before and it wasn't very clear to me, but now that I see it...

Mr. Yaxiu, you really went too far in this matter!

"I'm going to the place Mr. Ash mentioned later and have him help me with combat training. It might be hard, but I'll try my best to endure it because I think it's worth it!"

"!"

Hearing this, Snow White's eyes dimmed even more. She felt that she could not compare to Yuko Omori who worked so hard. When she was about to "shrink" into the crack of the floor to hide herself, she was forcibly pulled up again.

"I remember that Mr. Ash also made a similar agreement with you, Hime-chan, right?"

"I...my words won't work..."

If I'm not worthy of being a Pretty Cure, then so be it... Anyway, I can't do anything except being willful.

"Hime!" Ye Hui finally couldn't stand hearing such depressing words anymore. She also turned serious and stared at the girl in front of her who was "playing badly". "You only say things like 'no' when you admit defeat!"

"Even though I would be scared and run away when I was alone, but when you fought alongside me, didn't you, Princess, never give up and always try your best to defeat the enemy?!"

Hearing Hui's words, Snow White also remembered how she had endured her fear and fought desperately for her friends.

"But...."

That man said that being strong is something that only you can change yourself, so how could I possibly do that on my own?

"Xiaoji!"

As a proof of their friendship, both Kei and Yuuko called out her name at the same time.

"If you give up before you even start!"

"This is the real end!"

A tiny light seemed to emerge again from the depths of the girl's pupils.

Chapter 43: Two Girls Separate and Two Girls Meet

"Well..."

Ms. Ainoe, who always looks full of energy and smiles in the eyes of outsiders, became a little distressed after the other two went to "Ash" one after another.

The culprit behind her troubles was the "destroyer of the world" that she had been warned about. Now Hui has also remembered his real name... It's "Ash", right?

The girl who had fought fiercely with him knew very well how tricky his fighting ability was. In addition, his ambiguous attitude towards good and evil made it difficult for a "simple" girl like Ai Noe to figure out how to get along with him.

After all, for a girl like her who is an "altruist" who loves to help others and always radiates joyful energy, a man like Ash who completely follows her temperament and seems to have no bottom line is really a tit-for-tat incompatibility.

Fortunately, with the encouragement of her childhood friend Seiji, Kei decided to use her best friendliness to impress him and form a friendship with him! It would be even better if she could stop him from attacking Pretty Cure.

Not to mention that the mystery surrounding this man was also arousing the girl's curiosity, making her want to get closer to him.

However, the girl who had worked hard to make friends until now had a vague feeling in her heart.

"It seems that whether it's Youyou, Xiaoji or the angel of destiny."

It seems that they all already know him, and even have a close relationship with him! Because of this——

"Why do I..."

The girl, who felt that she was not very good at reading the air master's mind, instinctively felt it from Ash's attitude towards her several times before.

He said he was optimistic about my warrior side, but seemed to be deliberately avoiding me?

This feeling of deliberate "alienation" makes the girl feel indescribable discomfort whenever she thinks about it.

"Could it be that he actually hates me... or is this just my own illusion?"

"~" Just as the girl was feeling depressed, the phone on the table next to her, which was used specifically for Precure affairs, rang, and the anxious expression of a certain god appeared on his face.

"Oh no, Hui, the Phantom Empire has started to move in the Hill of Light again!"

"No way! At this time?"

Thinking about the fact that Snow White and Youko were going to Ash's place for "special training" together, Hui's expression suddenly became indescribable and a little ugly. Now she really wanted to ask the people from the Phantom Empire whether they had deliberately chosen this good opportunity.

"Now, if I'm alone..."

------

"Xiaoji, do you want to stay outside?"

Standing at the address Ash left for them, a deserted photo studio that looked a bit like a "haunted house", Yuko turned around again and looked at the hesitant little figure behind her.

“I want to go in…!”

After receiving encouragement from her two friends, Snow White, rekindled her reluctance to give up, and naturally wanted to take her transformation device back from Ash in a fair and square manner. But after really getting to this point, the girl, standing in front of the house, could no longer take the final step forward.

"Come here and take back your pride yourself," that person said to me at the time.

He's clearly an arrogant lunatic who knows nothing about me and acts recklessly based on his power, making him even more arrogant than me! Yet, he keeps talking down to me like a teacher teaching a student!

If I could be as powerful as you! Of course I would fight to prove my resolve, so that you, the bastard who bullied me, would see my powerful side again and regret looking down on me!

"But...why?"

He lowered his head and glanced at his hands and feet. They were all trembling like sieve chaff. He didn't look courageous at all.

Why can't I muster up the courage to be in front of him? Is it because I'm a loser who doesn't deserve the title of Pretty Cure?

How could Yuuko be so calm? I was so scared... so scared I couldn't even hold my hand.

"So Yuko, help me, let's go in together..."

I can't help myself...

"No."

Under the somewhat desperate gaze of her friend, Yuko hardened her heart and walked into the door of the photo studio alone, leaving Snow White outside with her heart filled with confusion.

"Xiaoji, it's a bit difficult."

"No one else can help."

I can't help you here.

------

"Well--"

Putting down the red, swollen, and painful arm that was blocking her face, Hui looked at the obviously "refined" evil beast in front of her, showing off its might alone, with some difficulty.

Really... The Phantom Empire attacked when Youyou and Xiaoji were not here. I am alone, and the opponent is so obviously strengthened. Can I win?

"This time, I, Oreski, will avenge my humiliation!" Standing on the ground gradually transformed into ruins by the forces of darkness, Oreski, still bandaged and in plaster, spoke to the girl with an air of "I have the upper hand." "Cure Lovely, I'll grant you this privilege. Become a stepping stone for my comeback!"

"I won't lose to you!"

Although Hui would never retreat during a fight, cold sweat still ran down her cheeks in the current situation where she was in a completely helpless situation.

The enemies are obviously different from the previous ones, and there are more of the most evil soldiers and miscellaneous soldiers than before, which puts a lot of pressure on Hui.

"Let's see how long you can hold out. Come on!"

When dozens of the most vicious soldiers pounced on Hui who was on high alert, a sharp purple lightning flashed through the tense air in front of the girl, blasting these miscellaneous soldiers into a beautiful scenery along the way.

"Yes...!" Through the gap between the two arms blocking her face, Hui was surprised to see a purple tassel standing up in front of her. "It's the Angel of Destiny! You're here too!"

As expected, since you are also a member of Hikari no Gakuen Pretty Cure, you also came to help at the critical moment!

"but..."

Hui, who had just gained the great general "Yuko Omori" not long ago, felt helpless and sighed at the dashing and capable purple figure in front of her.

Hui also knew that there was a conflict between her and Snow White that she could not reconcile, so Hui couldn't pull her into her camp even if she tried, not to mention that she seemed to have a complete lone ranger strategy...

"Want to come together?"

The Angel of Destiny, who had always refused to fight together in the past, now took the initiative to extend an invitation to Ainoe.

"Huh?" Hui, who hadn't reacted, was stunned for a moment before she took the initiative and happily shook the purple-haired girl's hand. "Okay!"

Are you finally willing to become our companion? !

As for why the Angel of Destiny is now going against his usual behavior and taking the initiative to talk to Hui about "teamwork".

Maybe it’s because I remembered what that person said.

"Is this the only way a Pretty Cure should live..."

Not forgetting these words, the pink and purple Pretty Cure now stood shoulder to shoulder. Even though there were so many enemies in front of them, they were inexplicably full of confidence and had no fear at all.

Is the role of teamwork as powerful as you say?

Let me see it for myself!

Chapter 44: Spanking and Iona's Invitation (4K Chapter)

"Domo, Mr. Ash, I'm Cure Honey, Omori Yukodesu."

On the clean and tidy tatami with a dojo atmosphere, the blond girl and the black man knelt opposite each other. The girl took the opportunity to dart her quick eyes around and began to carefully observe the surrounding environment.

To the girl's surprise, the photo studio, which looked dangerous and eerie from the outside, was actually meticulously renovated and clean inside, with even brand new tatami mats on the floor. The stark difference between the inside and the outside was like a deliberate attempt to scare people.

"What are you looking at? You've been looking around since you came in."

Having lost the relationship that allowed him to stay with someone and not bothering to build a secret base, Ash, who had been "traveling on a budget" while challenging the Pretty Cure around the world through the Aurora Curtain, has not had a fixed residence. Even this "photo studio" that served as a trial was temporarily converted from an abandoned building on the outskirts of Hikari Hill. Apart from the tatami mat he had brought from the Goki Dojo and used as a base, Ash himself didn't know what was good about it.

"Haha, I thought so." Yuko, who had been excited and nervous with unrealistic expectations, laughed sheepishly. "Is there a scene where a stick is swung at me the moment I step through the door, and if I dodge it, I'm considered a pass?"
