"I'm afraid she's talking about the time you threw Dark Evolver over." Kain, who disappeared for a while, then reappeared, quietly reminded her in her ear.
"Huh?"
[Dark Mephisto will absorb the light of Nexus. ] The system that had previously pretended to be dead also popped up this time to explain to Ash. [She is probably referring to the light you absorbed from them before. ]
"..."
Ash was stunned for a moment, what the hell, whose light are you talking about?
Wait, isn't that thing broken and only the plastic shell is left? Where does the light come from? I can't even come?
"Besides, didn't you just defeat the monster from another world that tried to attack me?"
Seeing "Heart Tree" facing his innocent smile, Ash turned his face to one side in discomfort.
"Just because of... such a thing..." Ash whispered unbelievable words with his unusually dry lips.
I obviously have no intention of helping you at all.
"In fact, when I first saw you..." Heart Tree was silent for a while, and then gently placed his green fluorescent palm on Ash's back. "At that time, your heart was completely dark. I did regard you as a new enemy, but..."
As the aggregate of human hearts in this world, Heart Tree is extremely sensitive to the inner things, which also allows her to see things at a deeper level.
"Heart Flower."
The simple words made Ash, who had been full of doubts and irritability from the beginning to the end, sweep away all other emotions, leaving only shock in his heart.
"In a dark and lonely desert, Naraku Flower withered but did not wither completely." The eyes of Heart Tree, who used the Cure Flower appearance, showed a very human sadness. "How could I not want to help you when I see Heart Flower looking so sad?"
At this time, the first emotion that arose in Ash's heart was "anger." Just like a boy's secret that he had hidden under the bed was uncovered and exposed to others, of course he would be angry.
But before he could express his anger, Dashu's next words left him speechless, and he couldn't feel the slightest bit of blame.
"Then, I saw that your life was constantly being consumed. In this case, even if those children can help you, your body will wither before your Heart Flower blooms."
"After I became aware of this, before I made any judgment on your behavior. When we first met, when I put on the ring, and now, all I can think about is helping you."
"!"
Ash remembered that when he and Anmei came to Heart Tree, he clearly showed his weakness but stood up immediately. When I put the ring on, I felt inexplicably comfortable, so I liked it very much. And now... I can feel that my body is recovering faster than normal!
The reason why I was able to stand up even though I didn't care about my life was not because I fooled myself through things like momentum, but because Heart Tree secretly transferred my life force and helped me!
"This kind of thing..." Even Ash opened his mouth wide in surprise, unable to utter a single word.
I have seen that there are as many unfounded malices as you want!
But what about the goodwill that has no origin, or even the goodwill that the whole world shows to itself?
"Why...?"
Facing Ash's eyes full of confusion and doubts, "Heart Tree" gently tapped his round chin with his fingers. After thinking for a while, he gave the answer with an extremely loving smile.
"You don't need a reason to help others, right?"
The overly gentle wind blew the pale pink hair around the tree's ears.
"Peng!!"
Clenched fist, hit the ground hard!
But it's not enough, again, again, and again! Until the ground was covered with cracks in spider webs, until his fists were stained with his own blood, the silent and terrifying Ash still waved his fists.
"Ash, what are you doing? Stop it!"
"Heart Tree" hurriedly stepped forward to stop his self-mutilation. When she looked over with an angry attitude, she saw Ash's face full of indescribable distortion and pain.
"Why is this... Everything I did, what happened now...?"
Ash is an egocentric person who only thinks about himself. As long as he is happy, he will do anything else.
But this does not mean that he can sit back and watch evil things happen and take pleasure in the ugly things.
Playing his own "little game" of harming others with peace of mind, while shamelessly accepting other people's good deeds, is obviously not something Ash would accept.
Even he has his own dignity!
Ash cannot describe how he feels at this moment.
"Are you kidding, are you kidding, bastard!"
"Ash, don't do this, you will only hurt yourself!"
Just when Ash was suddenly breached and on the verge of collapse, Yuri, who was being looked forward to by Ash on the other side, was standing in front of Heart Tree's body, having a conversation with Kolon.
"Thanks to everyone's continuous fighting and collecting a lot of Heart Seed, Mirai's Heart Tree gradually regained its extraordinary vitality under the influence of light."
"I also have a chance to recover and talk to you through my past body."
Kolon, who had two memories of Mirai and Mirai at the same time, still calmly explained to Yuri who was holding him.
"Since my soul returned to Heart Tree, I have been watching you."
"There is nothing happier than being able to see the stubborn you in the past gradually opening up to others."
After explaining the whole story, Kolon didn't get an immediate response from Yuri. He just quietly hugged his reunited partner until her tears fell on his head.
"It's so nice to be able to hug you like this again..."
"Kelong, I am such an idiot."
She thought of something she had been asked by Kolon. He asked her why she was looking for other Pretty Cure colleagues, and she replied that she did not need companions. She felt that the senior Cure Flower could defeat Duen alone, so she could do similar things.
"Obviously you reminded me at that time, saying that compared to the Desert Apostles in the past, there were more Dr. Sabaku and Dark Precure."
"In the end, I was arrogant and said that Pretty Cure is enough for me alone, and that I won't lose to anyone, but in the end I still lost..."
Thinking of this decision that he had regretted countless times, Yuri burst into tears. "It was all because I believed in my own strength too much that I killed you..."
It was this thought that kept biting her heart that made her sign a contract with Imagin by accident, hoping to go back to the past and change everything.
"Kelong, you already know Mirai, right? If you become a partner with me, it will end up like this, so... don't be with me now..."
Even though he knew that time could not be changed, Yuri still said it, saying the words that made him feel extremely painful.
Chapter 127 What he/she can do
"What a fun game, what a happy goal... In this case, wouldn't it be meaningless at all?!"
Tangle, blame, hardship, these expressions that should have nothing to do with Ash, who implements the principle of freedom of life, are now all concentrated on his face.
It's not like he hasn't encountered all kinds of troublesome and tangled things before, but Ash's handling of situations is usually face-to-face confrontation. He simply overturns the table without any moral kidnapping that the other party wants to prepare. Anyway, as long as I am unhappy, I will just do it if I don't accept life or death. It's such a simple thing.
But now Ash is completely unable and does not want to use angry violence to solve the problem.
Not to mention that the other party had never thought about moral kidnapping. After understanding the other party's repayment with kindness, Ash couldn't say anything ugly and weird just in front of her smiling face that didn't ask for an answer. The nonsense in this situation was too ugly and petty even by his own standards.
Now Ash is being tortured by his own self-esteem, which makes him so exhausted that he can't even muster any energy at all.
"Obviously, people like me are like mayflies floating in the universe, like meaningless dust..."
"It's wrong to think like this, Ash."
Halfway through his words, he was interrupted by "Heart Tree" in front of him, and he gave up on himself. At the same time, he was lovingly grabbed by a soft hand.
"Although it's not good to feel your heart like this." Holding Ash's hand, Heart Tree passed on the warmth filled with vitality. "I can see that you have been trying to hide your feelings, but just like lying, your way of deception is too straightforward, so I can understand what you mean."
"In your heart, the withered Heart Flower is filled with the emptiness of desire, but you have not allowed malice to arise from the emptiness, so I believe that what you did was not wrong!"
Facing the encouraging eyes of "Heart Tree" in front of him, Ash remembered and understood something.
In the past, he was also empty, looking for some kind of feeling that would make his heart "surging". It was at that time that a woman with the name of cure heart jumped out and used her own efforts to satisfy his surging heart, which also made him long for the miracle of Pretty Cure.
It's just that although the "surging heart" that I longed for has been satisfied... but what happens after that?
Just because you had a big meal today and you are full, it doesn't mean you don't have to eat tomorrow.
Therefore, as if returning to emptiness, he longs for the "miracle" he once had a glimpse of, and takes the initiative to contact Yuri and Lei as a store manager, hoping to witness the miracle by pushing them.
But Ash found that with the development of contact and relationship, he actually began to be immersed in getting along with them, and even indulged in the leisurely feeling brought by emptiness. This was unacceptable to him, so he also maintained another identity of "Timons" to confront them and remind himself of his original wish.
The many indecisions and actions in this world are exactly the decisive difference from the previous world and the result of the emptiness of the lack of clear goals.
And now...
Ash, who had been keeping his head down, went through a fierce ideological struggle. When he raised his head again, his bloodshot eyes were filled with determination and clarity that he had never seen since he came to this world.
"Are you going to change, like that kid Rei?"
"What they can do is not feasible for me. I will not change my plan... but I also have the ambition to be a man!"
The things I plan to do will not change, but the goals to be achieved will increase. What is needed next is their persistence and my determination!
"When what you think in your heart and what you hear in your ears are in agreement, what you should do becomes clear!"
At this moment, Ash, who was clear about his true feelings, swept away all the previous confusion and the man's eyes changed, looking at the blurry figure on the other side of the barrier.
"I've decided."
"Yuri, everyone including you will definitely be able to decide."
Ash was chanting in her mouth Yuri. At this time, she was letting go of the thoughts that had been suppressed and bothering her for a long time. With tears flowing but feeling much happier, she wiped her wet eyes and waited for Colon's answer.
"No, Yuri, that's not the case." Faced with Yuri's statement, Kelong did not look shaken, but comforted her as calmly as if he were still alive. "You know better than anyone else the importance of Pretty Cure's responsibility as a Heart Flower who desperately protects mankind."
Kolon, who has the memory of Mirai, can also see how hard Yuri, who became Pretty Cure, worked hard to fight Desert Apostles.
"That's why you plan to bear everything by yourself and fight alone. You think it's enough to bear everything by yourself, and you don't want others to suffer harm."
"Whether it was Mirai or now, besides you who are so gentle, is there anyone else who can be my partner?"
Even though he knew that he Mirai would die if he continued, Kolon was not sad at all, only smiling with no trace of wavering on his face.
"Yuri, whether it's you now or Mirai, I don't mean to blame you. Rather, it's great to be able to partner with you."
"Kelong..." The flowing tears stopped in the girl's eyes.
"You have to recognize yourself, Yuri. Now you have gained Lei and the others... and the irreplaceable friendship with that Ash, right?"
"Being able to do this means that you are decisively different from your past self." Sensing that his time limit was approaching, Kelong still encouraged him unhurriedly. "As long as you can realize this kind of thing, as long as you have the heart to fight for the important people, you can gain the power to fight Desert Apostles again."
Hearing this, Yuri opened his palm, and his half of Heart Seed was lying quietly on the palm of his hand.
"As long as I want to fight with everyone and protect this world and the important people."
"You will definitely be able to transform again!"
The shattered and mutilated Heart Seed was precisely the shape of his heart after losing to Dark Precure and losing the shape of his heart, so even his own Heart Flower looked withered.
However, the friends gathered through that irreplaceable cafe, the smiles of the friends, the smiles of the important people, and the smile of that guy are all before my eyes at this moment.
As long as I think of these, think of the way that guy threw Heart Seed to me when he faced Imagin alone (Yuri perspective), think of what he said, the empty space in my heart has begun to slowly fill with new light again.
"Don't let everyone down..."
Holding the Heart Seed that glowed in the palm of his hand, Yuri saw that a shadow that was exactly the same as Colon's was separated from behind and merged into the Heart Tree in front of him.
The girl who thinks in her heart and the voice she hears in her ears agrees, and what she should do is clearly visible, and uses the loudest voice from her heart to convey her wish.
"Heart Tree!"
"I want to fight again!!!"
Unpredictable light emitted from the Heart Seed, which was no longer incomplete in the girl's hand, and enveloped her graceful figure.
Chapter 128 Resurrection! Cure Moonlight!
"An attack of this level... Humph, what?"
Now that the sky was shrouded by dark clouds, the blue Magibullet Dragon that had finally been condensed from GekiRyu Ken was blown away by the concentrated burst of dark power.
"Would it make you do this?"
"It won't work." Turning back to the swordsman who turned into blue light and rushed towards him, Dark Precure raised two fingers. In Eddie's extremely horrified eyes, he actually caught Dragon Strike Sword's offensive with his fingers! "No matter how many times we attack you, it will never work!"
"Quah————!!!"
Eddie, who couldn't keep up with the reaction and was bullied, only saw the opponent wiping his armor and approaching him with a terrifying fist from bottom to top. Then his eyes went dark and the world turned upside down. After the lower part of the helmet was smashed into pieces, it was already on his head and feet, turning into a living top and rolling all the way out.
After being severely injured, there was no part of his body that was not in pain. He was knocked off the ground and rolled all the way down. Even the grass underneath him was scraped off a layer of skin. The magic bullet armor on his body that could no longer support it automatically detransformed. The man with his mouth and eyes closed covered his chest in pain.
