In other words, he lost to himself.

Chapter 208 I can't do anything...

Ash, lost?

The memories of those times spent with Ash finally stopped at the beautiful moment when he saved her from the monster's body.

The inner self and the outer self are constantly in denial.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Ash has never shown any weakness in front of them, I can't even imagine him losing!

He is the king of the Kingdom of Night!

He is Kamen Rider!

He was the one who had always guided us and helped us, how could he lose!?

"No, it's entirely possible."

Catherine stroked the difficult-to-heal wound on her chest and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, looking at Haruka who was unable to accept the situation with a slightly pity look.

"You guys, trust him too much, don't you? But after all, he only has a human heart."

"That's right. He has been bearing the burden of your trust all by himself, right?"

But it doesn't matter, I will help him transform from the inside out and become a high-ranking being like his mother.

"You Pretty Cures always take love and kindness for granted. Such laws don't apply in every world~"

how come?

In great pain, Haruka suddenly thought of the extremely conflicted tone in Ash's voice when he looked at Catherine and called her "mother", as well as his extremely sad look afterwards.

If I could have comforted him in time, if I could have been braver and stood with him.

If I hadn't taken it for granted that everything would be fine with him around, if Pretty Cure had been stronger enough to support his soul!

Wouldn't that mean he could come out of this stronger?

Compared to the infuriated Haruno Haruka, Catherine had no desire to spare her a second glance. She raised her hand and reclaimed the Satan Saber, which had transformed into a wand. She stirred the "energy of despair" that inexplicably resonated with her, drawing mysterious symbols in the air until this absolute dark force, born from deep within her heart, completely merged with her body!

"Unexpectedly simple."

The "power of darkness" in this world is indeed pure and powerful, but in terms of the degree of evil, it is probably not as evil as me, right?

Catherine, who had emerged from "despair", was wearing a gorgeous dress in a dark Gothic style. As she looked at her new outfit that symbolized "witch" with interest, she had already felt the power that was enough to allow her own ideas to reconstruct the world.

"It's a really beautiful dress. I don't dislike it~ Then from now on, I'm the new Witch of Despair."

I said I wanted to be a witch and that was a lie.

"It just so happens that I know all of Despia's arrangements. Then, let me fulfill this mission on your behalf."

As for the Pretty Cure who saves the world? Hehehe~ Sorry, it looks like this children's story will end with the good guys' tragic defeat and the villains' triumphant victory. Let those kids who burst into tears at the end go complain to the TV station, hahaha!

Catherine was in a good mood, humming a tune and preparing to take the lead in making the next arrangements, but a tiny force blocked her steps.

"give me back!"

Pulling at the corner of Catherine's clothes, Yao, who had no strength left, could only use this most primitive method to stop her.

"Give Ash back to me!"

"What do you mean by giving it back to you? Ash was originally mine!"

The huge power gap easily shattered the girl's thoughts, and she was thrown to the ground casually. The woman looked at the girl on the ground with disgust in her eyes.

"It was you thieves who stole him from me, otherwise he would have grown up according to my ideas."

I quite like this dress, who told you to touch it?

"Gu..."

"I'll tell you."

Looking at the girl screaming on the ground, a new idea came to the mind of the Witch of Despair, and she took out the princess perfume bottle that she had stolen from her before from her pocket.

"Do you know why I said before that you would never be able to achieve your dream of becoming a princess?"

I don't intend to kill you. I want the beautiful heart you possess to experience the same desperate reversal after witnessing Ash's reversal!

"That's mine!"

Haruka stood up with great pain and tried to take back the perfume bottle, but she cried out in pain as it fell from her hand.

So next, in front of Yao, Catherine began to tighten the princess perfume bottle in her hand little by little, causing the bottle, which was eroded by the energy of despair, to make continuous cracking sounds.

"do not want!"

"That's right, that's what happened!"

Click——!

There was no time for imagination at all. In front of the girl kneeling on the ground with her mouth wide open, the only possibility of turning defeat into victory turned into crisp fragments in the hands of the new witch of despair. Even the stars that symbolized hope turned into colorless glass fragments when they slipped from her fingers.

"You know? You know why the good guys always win in fairy tales?"

Suddenly approaching the girl with a dazed look in her eyes, Catherine lifted her chin and forced her to look at her.

"That's because all fairy tales are written by good people. Bad people are too lazy to write this kind of children's literature."

"So reality is the complete opposite of fairy tales! The good guys always lose, and the bad guys always win! Those so-called principles that justice will always prevail are just tools used by those good guys to numb themselves and underage brats like you!"

"Even that fairy tale about the 'Flower Princess' you've been reading, no matter your looks, talents, or status, you have nothing to do with a noble being like a princess!"

"Now that you've lost even this last bit of strength, you can't do anything, let alone help anyone!"

"Dreams are something you can only do in your dreams!"

Looking at that cute and pretty face that was gradually filled with despair as she spoke, Catherine's expression became even more distorted with the joy in her heart!

“I…I…”

After Catherine let go, her whole body fell to the ground as if all the bones had been pulled out. Curled up, Haruka faced Ash who was wrapped in darkness alone.

"I'm sorry Ash... I... I can't do anything..."

“Hahahaha, GOOD!!!”

Yes, this is what I want to see!

"With just a few stories from the past, I, Catherine Frederica, have brought such despair to everyone~"

"How is it, everyone?"

209

Chapter 209 The Destruction of the World.

"What on earth just happened?"

Suddenly, the Pretty Cures discovered that they were all separated. When they finally found each other again, it seemed that something big happened in the entire Kingdom of Hope that they had no way of understanding.

Although the Flower Castle fell silent due to the enemy's calculations, they did liberate the other three castles. Judging from the current situation, the light should have suppressed the darkness, and they are only one step away from liberating the entire world again.

But even now, when Ash, Haruno Haruka, and Catherine were nowhere to be found, they witnessed the dark miasma that brought despair expanding infinitely and gradually filling the entire world.

"No, it's no use!"

Hai Tengnan tried his best to use his purification ability. Although he was able to purify the miasma, it was just a drop in the bucket in the face of the infinitely expanding darkness.

"Why is this energy of despair so huge?"

We are clearly only one step away from defeating Disdak!

"Well done, Pretty Cure."

Catherine suddenly appeared above the world as a huge illusion, and clapped her hands at the girls below from above.

"I really want you to tell me how it feels to try so hard but still fall short at the last moment~"

"You are, that Catherine!?"

The girls who recognized the other person's entity at a glance also noticed the changes in her attire and temperament.

"Why you? Where's Despia? Where are Haruka and Ash?!"

"I am now the new Witch of Despair."

He spoke openly of the fact that shocked them greatly, and especially when they were suddenly stared at by those vertical pupils, the girls felt a chill all over their bodies.

"I don't intend to put you into eternal sleep like Despija did. As for asking your friends?"

I didn't plan to kill the original heroine, but she's probably still crying in despair there.

This kind of seed-seeking character can indeed easily become passionate with their enthusiasm, but it is also easy to break their defenses and make them despair, just let them see the cruel reality!

"They won't be coming back, so let me love you instead."

"you're lying!"

Yongjiu, the most angry, condensed his anger into a real fireball and threw it into the sky.

"They won't lose. Even if you become the new Witch of Despair, don't think Pretty Cure will let you do whatever you want!"

"Excuse me, but I can do whatever I want."

Catherine, who was clearly just an illusion, caught the fireball to their surprise and threw it back.

"And no one can stop me~ Aa ...

Amidst the tasteless laughter, the screaming girls were knocked to the ground by the counterattack fireballs. When they got up again, they found that the opponent's figure had disappeared long ago, and only more darkness was covering them.

"shit!"

Not only the miasma, they also noticed that the entire space had come alive, especially the thorny tentacles composed of the energy of despair, which twisted and wound their way to another world. That was...Earth?!

Could it be that this Catherine had seized the power of the Witch of Despair from Despia and was now planning to attack the entire world? She was clearly different from a pure creature of darkness like Despia; wasn't she also human? Why would she do such a drastic thing?

And Ash and Haruno Haruka, there's no way they'd just sit there and watch this happen. Could it really be...

"hateful!"

They were completely unable to understand and were even mocked by the enemy. They couldn't even find the reason behind it and could only roar in helplessness and rage.

"Someone please explain!"

"Qiluo, Nan! Everyone—Puff…!"

Puff, who was running at full speed with a look of fear on her face, accidentally stepped on her own long hair. The hair rolled all the way to Yongjiu's palm. The elf, who was so anxious that he stuttered, said hurriedly.

"Oh no, oh no, Puff!"

"Just now, Haruka and Ash—I was too scared—that's why Puff didn't come out..."

"Calm down. If you have anything to say, tell us slowly and clearly."

"Yes, I hid secretly and heard their conversation..."

That is indeed a "reality" that is too detached for the elves, the inhabitants of this "fantasy".

"!?"

-

Suddenly, a circus in strange costumes appears from nowhere and imprisons randomly captured passers-by and turns them into terrifying monsters. At this time, princesses in beautiful dresses will jump out to fight them. The final result is often that hope defeats despair.

It might sound absurd, but the people of Yumehama, where Pretty Cures actually exist, are used to it. Many people even look forward to seeing these girls in all their splendor.

But even this infinitely fantastic scene is still dwarfed by today's earth-shattering reality.

"What the hell is this!"

The overabundant energy of despair that materialized into a dark cloud blocked the light above. Countless thorns spread rapidly across the ground, and all those who approached had their souls taken away in an instant, becoming innocent human batteries that supplied the energy of despair.

The citizens who screamed in terror could do nothing but run away. Faced with despair, they only regretted that their parents had not given them two more legs so that they could run faster.

Their prayers of hope are being drowned out by overwhelming despair, and no one can hear their cries for help.

Why, why didn't Pretty Cure appear?
