"You - such an answer is too bad!" Akane was so frightened when she heard this answer that she almost turned around and gave Ash a shove in the head.
"As I said, I'm not a good person. I'm very self-centered and very greedy. I know what to do is the right solution for you and me, but I still can't help but want to reach out. You're right to say it's bad." When he said this, Ash's voice was unexpectedly calm, maybe he had accepted the fact. "Also, you can actually curse out, which will make you feel better. Why don't you give it a try?"
"We don't know how to curse!" He angrily put the freshly baked Okonomiyaki on a plate and brought it "heavily" in front of Ash. Akane also supported her chin with her hands and looked at him. "Besides, it's even more impossible to say that to a guest!"
"Thank you so much." With another look, Ash put the hot Okonomiyaki into his mouth. The just right heat combined with the wonderful sweetness, the wonderful taste immediately made Ash's eyebrows soothed. Seeing the change in his expression, Akane also showed a happy expression on her face.
"Delicious."
"Of course, this is our proud work!"
Watching Ash eat the food in front of her at a leisurely pace, the girl who felt much more relaxed also began to think about the meaning of the man's words.
However, it's not a direct rejection, but maybe you can't respond to me?
"I think there's nothing wrong with it, right?"
Ash stopped his chopsticks, took Akane's tissue and wiped his mouth.
"If we like Ash, that's our own mood. It's your choice whether Ash responds or not. It doesn't mean that you must get a response from the other party if you like it. Rather, that would be too cunning."
"So, no matter what the outcome is, the happiness I feel when I'm with you is real. In the end, we just need to have a clear conscience!"
"Huh——" She let out a long breath in front of Ash, and Akane showed a very bright smile. "Ahaha! I didn't expect that I actually said it all. We feel much happier now!"
However, even though I said that, when I think back on it, I still feel a little sad...
"Akane."
"Huh?"
When Akane, who was distracted, was brought back to her senses by the sudden voice of Ash, she looked up and saw a very serious face on his face.
"Actually, I still remember everything you said to me that night."
"Eh?"
Seeing Qian's surprise, Ash smiled, not the usual fun, but simply happy.
"It's true, just like your flame, the burning words that I think of now also set my heart on fire."
"Ehhhhhh-"
"Qian, you are such a good girl. I am very grateful to fight with you. You will definitely continue to grow as a good wife in the future."
Not good, not good! Not good! Ash What are you talking about? I'm so happy! I was so happy when I heard this. Now, the happy expression is about to show on my face!
"Wife, wife, whatever - besides, don't tease me about this kind of thing again!" She hurriedly covered her already hot cheeks, and her covered arms prevented Ash from seeing her current expression clearly. "I am a tomboy who always likes to play sports and hang out with boys. There is nothing feminine about me!"
No, no, no! I can't let Ash see my current expression, otherwise I will turn into a superficial character who can't find anything to say but only praise a few words, and I will be looked down upon!
"No, it has nothing to do with femininity. You are a beautiful and good woman. I just need to have a clear conscience about this."
This is what I said before, so cunning!
Just when Akane was about to open her mouth to defend herself, she felt a delicious taste appear in her mouth. It turned out to be Ash holding the remaining Okonomiyaki and putting it into her mouth.
"You taste just like this Okonomiyaki. Underneath the spicy and refreshing skin, there is a sweet heart that makes people want to eat it in one bite."
"Gulu... what is that?!" Akane, who was angry and ashamed, hurriedly bit off the remaining part in her mouth, chewed and tasted it carefully, and the taste seemed to be more delicious than the food she made. "Also, using Okonomiyaki to describe girls is too weird!"
"Don't like it?"
"We didn't even say we hated it!"
Akane Hino Now, there are words I want to write in that book.
"[Ash, is a very annoying person.]"
"[He beat us up indiscriminately. It's difficult to trust him like Miyuki, let alone him taking advantage of us for fun. It's really too much!]"
"[However, Ash is really handsome when he takes it seriously, especially when he is on our side! I will probably never forget that adventure of peeking into the universe.]"
"[Everyone, including everyone at Ash, it is only with them that I can work hard to do what I like. It is really great to be able to meet everyone as Pretty Cure!]"
"[Today or tomorrow, Akane Hino, who is full of passionate power, likes Ash the most!]"
"[Everything with you is my irreplaceable treasure!]"
I will write these words after I have spent this pleasant time!
"Ash~!"
"Huh?"
Akane also smiled and picked up a piece of okonomiyaki with chopsticks and brought it to Ash.
"Come on, ah~~"
Chapter 196 The beginning, the beautiful ending
In the Tragedy Kingdom, Piero sat on his throne and opened his eyes.
After cooperating with the fragments left in Gagu's body to force his spirit to absolute despair, Piero now seized Gagu's extremely powerful body and once again became the emperor representing the dark power in this universe.
After completely merging the main body with the Aguru belt, Piero, who gained complete control, was quite surprised at how powerful this body was due to the degree of mutation. But what really shocked and surprised him was the "darkness" and "tragedy" contained in this belt.
What Piero saw was that Gagu had mercilessly slaughtered his entire ethnic group with very cruel methods, and then burned all the life on the planet, in order to take the power of life and push him to greater heights.
After that, he traveled to many worlds in cooperation with that "Catherine", and also did many such evil things that killed the goose and took the eggs. The ending of each time was bound to be a "tragic ending" full of blood, until in this world, he finally ushered in his own bad end.
The blood and tears of countless innocent people, burdened with the wails and pain of several worlds, these "tragedies" caused by the executioner Gagu were all in front of Piero at this moment, turning into Tragedy Energy that was almost solidified and pouring into it. This was also the key to its astonishing speed in rising again.
"So this is - the tragic ending of other worlds?"
It seemed that after being "dead" at the hands of Kamen Rider and Pretty Cure, Piero no longer simply followed instincts as in the past. At this time, he was thinking about the matter in front of him.
These Tragedy Energy are actually large and pure. So, is the tragic ending that Gagu did ultimately lead to, the one you wanted?
In the memory he got, a human in blue armor fell at his feet, and Gagu, covered in innocents, was in ecstasy. He was laughing for the satisfaction of his desires, he was laughing for the power he had plundered, and he stood on the tragedy of the weak and laughed crazily.
"Wrong."
Piero gave a negative answer.
"It's just pure killing. Even if such an ending is tragic, it is too ugly!"
I am the Dark Emperor Piero, and I will definitely draw a permanent mark of tragedy that represents the end of everything, including Fairy Tale Kingdom, the earth, and the universe. However, the end of the world as a result is not what I want!
What I long for after waking up now is actually...
The head of a thick book containing the color of chaos was condensed by the center of energy and fell on its hand.
"[Book of Loss (The Book of Lost Things)]!"
Piero decided that all "beauty", "hope" and "effort" must be crushed before it can be regarded as the real "final".
"Tragedy would be meaningless without beauty."
"Burning a hundred pieces of trash is not as touching as destroying a beautiful piece of art."
Opening the storybook that imitated Wonder Ride Book, four jet-black qi burst out from the title page in sequence. After falling on the ground, they slowly solidified and turned into the appearance of the four cadres of the Tragedy Kingdom!
The ghost card was originally a part of Piero, so it was naturally easy to resurrect it. The three monsters Wolfurun, Witch Reina and Akaoni were originally characters in the story. As villains, they were inspired by darkness and became its subordinates. Now they have been awakened by Piero again.
And thanks to the existence of the Aguru belt, the four-body power of Almighty, Titan, Pegasus, and Azure Dragon gave Piero and Reference great inspiration. After investing some fragments and power, the strength of the reshaped four cadres is now far better than before they were alive!
"Now, wake up!"
The re-created "four cadres" raised their weapons one after another with strange missions in their eyes.
"The necessary plot has begun, now let's open the title page of the final chapter."
Tragedy Kingdom, which was originally fixed in a different world, began to shake violently at this moment. Under Piero's control, it seemed as if it was about to break away from this world.
"Pretty Cure, Kamen Rider. This long story full of your joy and pain is coming to an end."
"When hope turns to despair, it's up to me, Piero, to create something that matches yours——"
"What an incomparably beautiful tragic ending."
"Reika, I know you are at home, don't hide in there and keep silent!"
Knocking on the door in front of him again, Ash sighed regretfully.
"How indifferent, Reika."
His keen senses could hear subtle sobbing through the wall, but the door still didn't open. Of course, the biggest reason was that he couldn't just break in. After all, that would be meaningless.
"Reika, it's okay to listen to what I have to say."
To be honest, I don't hate what you did at that time. The so-called right and justice sometimes mean this.
Ash, who was considering what to say next, was about to open his mouth when a sudden wind blew up in the back of his head. He turned around and looked up. He saw a storybook fluttering in the air and flying towards him. Then Tangtang was thrown out of it, and the pink lamb that spun and attacked hit him directly in the face.
"3!"
Ash, who subconsciously shouted out, grabbed the dizzy Tangtang, thinking that it had gone back to the Fairy Tale Kingdom before. When he was wondering why she was working overtime continuously this time, Tangtang impatiently stated his purpose first.
"No, no, no, Ash ku! Tragedy Kingdom, it's Tragedy Kingdom over there!"
"Tragedy Kingdom What's wrong? Please tell me clearly."
"Tragedy Kingdom is going to hit Kuru this way!"
Before he even uttered the second word of doubt, a violent shaking almost knocked Ash to the ground. However, when he was even more moved and surprised, at the same time, there was a sense of topsy-turvy transformation coming from the surroundings that instantly flowed throughout Ash's body.
This feeling is very similar to that pink Rider space-time wall!
"No more..."
"It feels so uncomfortable..."
Looking around, all the passers-by that could be seen lay down on the ground with expressions of disgust, and Tragedy Energy flowed out of their bodies and flew in a certain direction in unison.
But what is even more eye-catching is the changed environment. Dark and strange buildings are mixed with high-rise buildings. The sewer system seems to be flowing with lava. The green belt is covered with dead trees and brings miasma. It can be said that a hundred ghosts are walking in the night and the devil is dancing! This is simply the result of mixing two worlds together!
"Is this a forced fusion of the tragic world with the earth's space?!"
Ash showed an extremely troubled expression. He had seen similar situations before!
"What's going on! Is Piero returning?!"
"Ah, looking at it this way, it can only be it, right?"
Xun Sheng looked back. Ash, who was gritting his teeth, and Aoki Reika, whose eyes were slightly red, turned their heads at the same time. They stood face to face and looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes.
Chapter 197: Turn to the last page (4K)
Both of them have imagined the scene when they meet. It may be awkward, it may be silent, or more likely it will be conflicts that turn the two of them into an ugly quarrel.
But the two people who were looking at each other at the moment stood there, speechless for a moment. Even Tangtang, who didn't know what was going on in his arms, shrank his head and didn't dare to speak.
"Ash... that... me."
The darkness above our heads is quickly taking over the light in the sky. The skin of the building is falling off in pieces, and the plants are quickly withering and decaying. All life within the range has also begun to fall one after another with the effect. If someone can start to look down at the earth from outer space, they will find that this corrosive force is rapidly expanding to the entire world!
Unfortunately, now is the worst time to communicate.
Reika, whose eyes were red, was speechless for a moment and was about to turn around and run away when an irresistible force grabbed her by the back of the collar and threw her over, forcing the girl into the back seat of the Gatling motorcycle.
"Really, where are you going?" He put Tangtang into her hand angrily, and put the helmet on her head without waiting for Reika to say anything. "Now that you are with me, is there any problem?"
"No, no problem..."
He kicked off the kickstand and tightened the accelerator to let the engine start to warm up and roar, and both sides accelerated towards the source.
"Listen up Reika, no matter what you want to say, you can tell me later, okay?"
"... Hmm."
Feeling the strong wind that almost blew him over, he held Tangtang with one hand and put the other hand forward to wrap around Ash's waist. Reika closed his eyes and pressed his upper body tightly against Ash's generous back.
Can I be forgiven?
"Is this here?"
