Then I think you must be the important... orphan whom He entrusted to me.
So please let me, too, believe in your miracle a little bit.

Chapter 141 Everything starts from here.
"I'm sorry, what I did to Ashu before was indeed too much."
In the past, I stubbornly believed that as long as I apologized, I would lose, so even if it was really my fault, I would not want to apologize under any circumstances. But now when I say this again, I feel surprisingly relaxed.
"It's okay, I never blamed Ash-sensei."
In response to Ash's sudden apology, the girl, who was stunned for a moment, only shook her head gently in response. She didn't say anything more, but continued to smile to maintain the silence.
After coming to this world, the reason why she suddenly seemed to be a completely different person was because Ashu she slightly remembered some things from the past.
From the first time I opened my eyes, I looked at each other while sleeping Ash...
When she was just born, not only did she not receive the blessing, she also had to endure the unreasonable and endless pursuit from her "brother". Filled with fear, fear, confusion and other emotions, in order to survive, she had to arm herself with an armor called "evil".
No one is afraid of a kind-hearted person. Even if she is a "Precure", she must be as bad as the villain Pretty Cure.
Well, in order to get the power of Precure that I didn't have yet, I plotted against them... Although I felt sorry for some people in the end, it was a good ending at least to let them meet again, right?
"... I'm sorry."
Thinking of this, Ashu couldn't help but apologize in a low voice to them who were far away.
Perhaps what I don't want to admit is that I am a little jealous of these Pretty Cures. I am jealous that they can actually stand with him and provide the most important help. I am jealous to the extent that "Pretty Cure only needs me."
In the end, I was still a little too proud... I took a long detour and then came back here again.
Which is more useful to the current Ash, the me now or the old me?
She couldn't find the answer she wanted yet.
"Oh, what a pity."
They originally thought that sneaking into the enemy's base camp would lead to an exciting stealth story. After finally avoiding various dangers, they accidentally triggered the alarm at the last moment when they were about to escape, and then forcibly staged a classic drama such as a full martial arts show.
The result... Because Ashu was by their side, they didn't trigger any alarm function at all when they reached the home world of the Hundred Realms Base. Even the door locks around them were all green with smiling faces. It could be said that their home was completely sold.
"I thought I could show off my ninja abilities this time."
"There will definitely be plenty of opportunities in the future."
The frustrated Ash could only throw the cardboard box aside.
"After all, I was one of them."
For Ashu, the authority is the same and she is the leader, so there is no need to worry about this.
After passing the three prismatic stone tablets suspended above his head, Ashu once again pointed in the direction of the secret object hidden in another dimension.
"Actually, I have also heard that in addition to the three of them, there were other versions of Ash-sensei that were created before me... for example, the Metal Hero version of Ash?"
But I am indeed the last one to be created.
"Really, what happened to him in the end?"
Metal Hero logo lightsaber, support machinery or anything like that, I didn't see one.
"Honestly, I don't know."
I guess... the main body of Metal Hero series is missing, it's just the same.
"If there are others, maybe they can be persuaded to come and become our companions!"
"I think it would be better if there were fewer people like this."
Listening to Ashu's words, Ash feels a headache just thinking about it. He is obviously the only one in the multiverse who does not have the characteristics of parallel individuals. What is the purpose of creating such a bunch of clone multiples... Hey, you have to pay the copyright fee when I charge you!
After breaking through the dimension this time, the device that appeared in front of them was a little different from what they had seen in other worlds... No, it was very different!
Countless pure black steel pipes that cannot be built by manpower freely shuttle across the earth, connected to the only main body in the center: a huge lighthouse that reaches the sky, standing above this world.
The transparent lighthouse that is reminiscent of myths and legends is continuously absorbing Dark Echo from other worlds with efficiency visible to the naked eye. But when these existences containing countless darkness and ugliness gathered at this moment, the light they emitted was so pure and great... Just like a sun that shines on all things, the platinum-gold light that only Ash can look directly at sweeps across everything in front of them.
"This is [Babel Tower], a device used to store and operate all Dark Echo so far and ultimately reshape the world."
If Ash-sensei hadn't forcibly taken away half of Dark Echo in that sudden awakening battle, delaying a lot of time for re-collection, Baijie and the others would have completed their ultimate plan long ago.
"So..."
Ash asked while stroking the wall in front of him with countless energy flowing through it, making sure that it was impossible to destroy it in any way.
"Is that all there is to it?"
"Yes, whether it is all Dark Echo, the hostages captured by the Hundred Worlds, or the driver belt that is being produced as the core, they are all included."
"Babel Tower was originally built bit by bit by the system through Dark Echo collected by Ash-sensei. Unexpectedly, it was finally completed in the hands of Dust and the others."
"Really? That means everything starts from here."
Still without any obstruction, the two of them embarked on the road to the Tower of Babel unimpeded.
"It looks like this is where it all ends."
"Hey, you are saying that you just received a signal from Ash?!"
Surprised, pleasantly surprised, almost cheering expressions were on Rabbit Squad's face. After fighting off a certain alien black hole man, they had already repelled more than a dozen waves of assassins. They were confused in the reality that they had gained nothing. They didn't expect to "run into" Ash here. Now they are really dozing off. Someone give them pillows!
"If that's the case, let's follow!"
Without even thinking about it, Sento made the decision immediately.
"No problem?"
Hana is a little confused. After all, these brothers and sisters said they wanted to give Ash a good beating before, but now they say they want to follow in his footsteps is a bit...
"Of course!"
Not to mention the numerous other problems, big and small, but one thing can be completely confirmed.
"Ash is definitely not the kind of person who chooses to sit back and wait for death when encountering difficulties!"
"The fact that we can find him now means that he is walking on the same path as us!"
A hero cannot abandon his companions!

Chapter 142 An unexpected enemy.
"Just take this opportunity and let me absorb all the Dark Echo... Okay, I'm just kidding, don't stare at me with that look."
It was rare enough to be able to forcibly snatch half of Dark Echo from Dast and the others, and let this energy stay in the body without doing anything evil until now. Now if the remaining part is absorbed... Even if Ash is an immortal in a certain sense, he cannot guarantee what his existence will become in the end.
Therefore, Ash, who could only choose to step into Babel Tower, was mentally prepared to experience non-stop fierce battles.
"I thought it was another classic tower climbing plot."
"It turned out to be nothing!"
Leading Ashu all the way up, not to mention the elite BOSS that blocked the road, we didn't even encounter any monsters at all. Ash, who was running smoothly throughout the whole process, felt that if he continued like this, he would be so bored that he would transform into a complaining robot.
No, in other worlds you can throw your men all over the floor like Sami, but in the end, you don't put any guard force in your hometown. Is this reasonable?
If Ashu was not familiar with the internal structure of "Babel Tower" after it was fully built, Ash would have pointed straight at the target all the way and succeeded in stealing the chicken from the regretful eyes of the three people who were far away and had no time to return home.
"It always feels like I'm playing an asymmetrical game..."
"I also feel like I can't keep up with Ash-sensei's memes."
If the huge mission of stopping the Hundred Worlds Organization conspiracy ended like this... it would be boring just thinking about it. If it were published as a novel, it would definitely be sprayed all over by readers.
"What's wrong? We are about to win. Why do you look so unhappy?"
After he rescues all the hostages and destroys the internal core, Baijie will completely lose the initiative no matter how powerful it is. At that time, he can unite all the heroes to start a vigorous theater version, and send these three traitors away as the theater version BOSS to the joy of "Dududu"~
And this time I will achieve great results! Isn't this Land of Light allowed to build an 800-meter-high "Lord Ash Gratitude Monument" for me in the city center?
Oops, just thinking about it makes me happy.
"This..."
Faced with the question from Ash, who was obviously in a happier mood, the girl with a smug face could only lie to one side while tilting her expression to one side.
"There's nothing, it's Ash-sensei's illusion."
Just thinking that the happy time with Ash-sensei is coming to an end makes me a little sad...
Huh? It would be nice to go back with Ash in the future, but why do I feel like it's over? Am I so clingy?
"Oh oh oh! Found it!"
Like an adventurer who finally found the ashes of a campfire after drinking all the orange juice, like an adventurer who finally found a treasure chest after exploring the dungeon for a long time, Ash, who had repeatedly confirmed that there was no "mimic", kicked open the door and broke into the tightly sealed room.
"Are they all here?"
Rows of Spark Dolls are neatly arranged like the tombstones of heroes, while characters that are not suitable to be made into Spark Dolls are lying quietly in capsules nearby, obviously being compressed and frozen.
"Let me count, 1, 2...53...211..."
Ash, who confirmed the number of people caught here, couldn't help but snap his fingers mockingly.
"Ha, you also said that all the heroes have been wiped out by them. It's a complete lie!"
"The numbers don't match up at all. At least half of the transformed heroes are still outside fighting against them. No wonder they didn't have time to come back since their hometown was stolen!"
Ash, who repeatedly confirmed that all the victims had lost consciousness after being incapacitated, and that there were no actual casualties, immediately called Ashu and asked her to help.
"I'm sorry, now I can only ask you to squeeze into the economy class."
"Ash-sensei."
Ashu, who used various shield skills to build a big box to contain people, confirmed to him.
"Is this okay?"
"That's it! I was worried that you might hold me back before, but now it seems like this is a good thing."
"Hehe~ If it can help Ash-sensei... Ash-sensei! Be careful!"
Since he couldn't let go of the thing he was holding in his hands, when he confirmed the presence of some abnormal existence and called out... it was already a step too late.
"!"
The invisible barrier divided the room where Ash was in two, with half of Ash inside and half of Ashu outside. This was the boundary that separated the two people.
"Ash-sensei, Ash-sensei!"
"Let's go!"
The girl whose expression also changed drastically immediately put on the belt, turned her back to the girl and shouted angrily.
"Desire Driver (Desire Driver)!"
"How is that possible!"
The fist wrapped in black and white kept hitting the invisible wall in front of him. Even Ashu, who did not waver at all, had no desire to stop.
"How is it possible for me to escape alone and then leave Ash-sensei here -"
"Idiot, are you alone now!?"
"!"
"Heroes are the hope of those who are saved, and now you are the hope of heroes."
Seeing the dolls and capsules carefully installed in the shield assembly, Ash smiled knowingly and then changed his tone and suddenly became serious.
"So I ask you to go back the way you came, go back and find someone! Find anyone who has a righteous heart! They will help you!"
"And I'm not planning to die. Just wait a moment and I'll follow right away."
Run, Ashu, run!
"Me too, I'll be back soon!"
