"Do something big! Do something big, girl! GO!"
"Crack-!"
A thick dictionary was thrown into the young man's face, causing him to fall backwards and fall deeper into the ruins, sending up another burst of rubble and dust.
The girl standing at the door with flushed cheeks maintained her throwing posture, and the next second she let out a sharp cry that was comparable to a sonic attack.
"Thief! Pervert, exhibitionist!!!"
"It hurts... I'm not a thief."
"Exhibitionist, pervert! Shameless!"
"This is worse than a thief."
Touching the red marks on his face, A's face was throbbing with pain and his teeth were showing.
It hurts so much... Is this body that has no power at all so weak?
"I... my holiday homework!"
Nanairogaoka Academy's holiday homework assignments were much simpler than those at Ayumi's previous school, so she worked hard to finish the homework in the first few days, thinking that she could have fun in the days after... like this?
So how do I explain it to the teacher now? To be honest, I originally finished it, but a naked man came from the sky and destroyed it... No more! I don't want to be a school celebrity like Miyuki!
"Uuuuuu——"
Holding the pieces of the homework book in his arms, Sakagami Ayumi was about to cry without tears... No, he had actually cried.
"Cough cough cough!"
Tightening the belt around his waist, A adjusted his new clothes on his upper body. This white leather jacket was a bit too big for his current body shape, but it was not funny, at least it was better than running naked and exposing his butt.
"Don't you have more handsome clothes?"
"What? I secretly took the clothes from my father's room, and you didn't even bother to thank me, but you were still picky!"
With her cheeks swollen with anger, the girl raised her head and shouted to the boy on the other side of the hole in the ceiling.
He is obviously a handsome guy, but he turns out to be not only an exhibitionist, but also extremely shameless!
"Mom will come back later. This is the hole you made in my house. You promised to fix it!"
"Cough, cough, cough, I know..." After coughing twice more, A reluctantly picked up the hammer at hand. "You will be satisfied, Miss."
If I hadn't been chased by a monster before and had no choice but to jump down betting that a Leap of Faith wouldn't kill me, I wouldn't have ended up in such an embarrassing situation. No, A, you should think on the bright side. At least you really have faith and didn't fall to your death all of a sudden, right?
"Dang Dang Dang——"
Under the "supervision" of the girl, A used his frail body to do civil engineering work.
"That..."
Hearing another sound coming from below, A poked his head over and saw the doubtful look in the angry eyes of the girl sitting on the ground.
"Who are you...?"
Ayumi has always been an introverted child.
Even though she became friends with the enthusiastic Miyuki and others in the Nanairogaoka Academy, her fear of interacting still made her afraid to take the initiative to talk to other strangers.
But things were different now. Not only was A's overly shocking appearance causing her mixed feelings to overwhelm her social fear instinct for a while, but also because of the other person's inexplicable and wonderful temperament, which reminded her of someone.
A person who is as weird and unique as this guy, who stands out from other normal people.
A person who always laughed with Miyuki and the others, but in the end disappeared completely, and at the same time, he accidentally changed himself...
alone.
"Me? Of course I am undoubtedly a human being. No, to be precise, I should be half... a quarter of a human being, right?"
After all, it was Pretty Cure's desire and thought that responded to their "Ash", and then took away the original Assassin Matter and the result of Ash being split into two...
That's me.
The tinkling sound of mending on the boy's hands acted as the narration between the two of them.
"If you ask, I am the unwanted, abandoned adult part."
"Liar!" Ayumi, who thought he was being tricked by the other party's weird words again, protested. "You obviously look about the same as me, but you're only a little older than me at most!"
It seemed that he had forgotten his own social identity. Ayumi suddenly started arguing with A.
"I am a boring and useless adult who has forgotten about dreams." A shook his head, and the smile on his face became a little ironic. "He is a child who only cries and makes trouble unreasonably."
After all, the existence of Ash is actually divided in the eyes of Pretty Cure.
Vicious violence without any reason.
Love and tenderness that can be sacrificed for them.
That's why I'm here.
"The meaning is unknown..."
Unable to get any more valuable clues, Ayumi changed the topic.
"A is just a letter symbol, it can't be considered a name, right?"
"What's your real name?"
Swinging the hammer head to drive the nails into the board, the pale boy smiled at the girl below.
"I don't have a name."
"I have only been born in this world for half a day."
"Humph, if you don't want to say it, forget it."
Ayumi Stop paying attention to this liar, she won't believe his lies!
But this time it was indeed Ayumi who guessed wrong. In a sense, A was true without a single lie.
Not long ago, Ash, who had collected all the objects of his longing, decided to devour these props that originally belonged to him, repair the body of Assassin Matter, and complete the seizure of its body.
As a result, because some essential reasons were accidentally exposed during the fusion process, the special effects scene was really unsightly. As a result, at such a critical moment, two Pretty Cure, one black and one white, came to the door, and a shiny black and white swirling flash came over.
That skill was different from other Precures' purification skills in memory. It contained powerful destructive power, which directly caused the repair and fusion process to collapse on the spot, and even caused the destruction to cause splitting.
This is the reason why the individual named "A" was born.
"Ha~"
If those two Pretty Cure knew that they were the ones who caused everything to happen, what would their expressions be like?
No, if you think this way, wouldn't you want to call them mother?
Thinking of this, A couldn't help but smile like an adult again.
Chapter 8 The true form of the contract and the existence of Ash?
Sakagami Ayumi, who was sitting on the ground, looked at half of the room, including his own bed, which had been destroyed. His heart was filled with aggrieved suffering.
Obviously, until this age, no one of the opposite sex other than my father has entered the room. But now, not to mention the feeling of being in the same room with others for the first time, the room has completely disappeared, okay?
What's more, this guy who calls himself "A" and speaks incomprehensible words always says that he wants to sign a contract with him... This sounds very suspicious, okay?
Why are you clinging to me for no reason? Because I am Pretty Cure... Yes, I am Precure! When the darkness that shrouded the whole world came out that day, and even black holes appeared in the sky, I still bravely fired the first shot. I should be considered to have contributed to saving the world, right?
Why is it that I have to suffer this kind of sin? Who in the family understands?
The sunlight shining on Ayumi's face from above her head was blocked, and the momentary change of light in the room also brought back the girl's consciousness of thinking alone.
"A?"
He actually did it. Even such a big hole in the roof was repaired. It's amazing!
"A, what's wrong?"
I called the other party's name again but waited for a long time without getting a response. When Ayumi looked up for the first time and saw that the hole had been patched up, he was still confused, but he heard the boy's voice coming from the window on the side.
"Yo..."
With one hand lying outside the guardrail, A, who was sweating profusely, showed a forced smile to the girl who quickly opened the window.
"I originally wanted to roll in directly... but I overestimated my strength in this state. I won't be able to hold the window open."
"Well, you see, I have shed blood and sweat for this home. For the sake of at least helping you repair the roof just now, how about giving me a hand?"
After Ayumi, who was in a hurry, used all his strength to drag A up from the window, the two of them, who were already exhausted, simply unfolded themselves into a big character together. They were so exhausted that they lay on the ground without caring about their image, taking a big breath of air mixed with dust, and then started coughing together.
"Cough cough cough - is your body so weak?"
He was obviously taller than me, and the muscles exposed on his chest looked stronger than mine... I couldn't help but think of the white-haired boy's wheat-like complexion when he was naked before. Ayumi quickly covered his red face and turned it to the side, for fear of being noticed by the other party.
"The part that belongs to strength is now on the other side..." As if to confirm this sentence, the boy, who was shaking like a sick man after strenuous exercise, coughed twice and almost didn't cough up his lungs. "Forget it, you can't understand it now."
However, physical problems don't matter. Anyway, this body is just a defective product after being accidentally "struck out by lightning" and filled with boring thoughts. The most important question now is how to make this girl who can lend me my strength trust me...
Just when A felt helpless from the bottom of her heart, she felt a pair of soft palms climbing up her back, actually helping her up. Only when she turned around to face her did she see the apologetic and worried look in her eyes.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know your body was like this... I was afraid that when my mother came back, she would tell me what to do, so I forced you to help me repair the roof!"
What surprised A was that the girl with her hands clasped in front of her was sincerely apologizing to him.
"A, you smashed through my house like that, you didn't do it on purpose, right? I ended up being so unreasonable that you almost fell down..."
She thought of a person, the person in the new school who took the initiative to become friends with her - Hoshizora Miyuki.
The reason why Miyuki became a celebrity in her school was probably because he was seen being picked up by a person named Ash at the school gate several times. In fact, there have been bad rumors about Miyuki among the students. Under such circumstances, Ayumi feels that if it were Zi Zuoji, he probably wouldn't have the courage to contact other people until graduation, right?
But Miyuki is different. She doesn't care about any of this at all. She simply relies on her stupidity that never fades away from her smile and her attitude of still being friendly with everyone to eliminate the existence of strange rumors. No one in the school is unwilling to make friends with this girl who is always honest and sincere to others, including Ayumi... To be precise, she envies Miyuki's mentality.
But I didn't even have the courage to talk to others, so even if I became Pretty Cure, I didn't dare to talk to anyone. I was always just in a daze.
Even now, there are obviously better choices, but I only think about myself and almost hurt the other person. It is because of such a despicable me... that I am not qualified to have friends like Miyuki, right?
Just when Ayumi was complaining about himself and feeling regretful, the imaginary blame did not come. Instead, a palm gently covered his head to spread the warmth.
"Well, nothing happened to me?"
Ha, really, what am I worried about... Obviously, whether it's Mana or Lei's, I've seen so many of them, am I still not convinced?
Will be selected as Pretty Cure.
"He is indeed a good boy."
I really want the few demons in the next shed to learn from a girl like you.
"Well, please don't touch other people's heads..."
After being stunned for a while, he dodged the palm on his head in a panic. But at this time, Ayumi's attitude was no longer sharp. Instead, he shrank his shoulders shyly and glanced at him from time to time.
He is obviously a strange person that makes people not want to have anything to do with him at first... but unexpectedly, does he have a gentle side that he understands?
Feeling, surprisingly not so annoying?
Ayumi Unconsciously, the shyness that always failed to muster the courage in front of strangers disappeared from A's face.
"Okay, now let's talk about the contract."
He clapped his hands and sat across from the girl. A's face turned serious in a second and he was ready to talk about business.
"Don't worry, this is not a contract to trade your soul. Oh, to be precise, you have made a profit. It is so beneficial to you that it can be called a grand opening with a huge amount of money and free shipping!"
"What exactly does the contract do?"
Hearing that the other party finally took the bait, A also snapped his fingers.
"You saw the monster rampage on the streets earlier, right? It's easy to tell if you saw it."
"The content of the contract is: You must join me to defeat the culprit behind this change!"
Seeing Ayumi's expression of dementia, A nodded with satisfaction.
"How about it, it makes sense, right?"
"What is this? A coin, doesn't it look like a Japanese yen?"
