Wait, Ash, how did you start eating it so naturally?
"That, that!"
Looking left and right, I could see that everyone was smiling inexplicably. Towa, who seemed to be the only one who didn't understand, simply sat in front of the cake angrily and moved his knife and fork.
"No matter what, I want to eat too!"
"It's so cute ~ Like a little animal ~"
"Who says it isn't?"
Putting the removed helmet on the table, amid the background sounds of "ah ah ah ah", the three people's eyes were firmly fixed on Ash's face.
No matter the black hair, black eyes or faint smile, it seems that there is no change. Ash is still the same Ash in front of them.
"Long time no see, Ash."
That's good, that makes people feel at ease.
"It hasn't been that long, right?"
Unlike others, you are the Pretty Cure who have been separated from me for the shortest time... although you didn't even have time to say goodbye at that time.
"Please don't underestimate a girl's mood."
Wandering her delicate fingers, Nan put down the tea cup and said seriously, "The longing produced during separation is not directly proportional to the length of time, but depends on the discretion of both parties' hearts."
Even if the time sequence of getting along cannot be compared with the seniors you met earlier, we will never lose the weight of our hearts to anyone.
"... Miss Nan, who can say such amazing words of love in a serious manner, is indeed a talented woman in the family. She is so powerful that people want to admire her."
"Love, love words and so on..."
Nan Ye, who was suddenly told this, was able to do it in a second. She pretended to look to one side as if nothing happened, and even though her cheeks were shaking unnaturally, she couldn't hide her red ears.
"Dark Night King-sama is as smooth-tongued as ever and is good at coaxing girls~"
Thinking that he was one of the victims of being "cheated", Kirara pointed his finger on his chin and couldn't help but want to make some fun.
"But this time I didn't just learn someone else's greasy love story line. Because it's original, I can give you extra points, HuiHui~"
"Kirara If you want to hear it, I can keep you awake all night without repeating it."
"Ah, ah~ But Kirara, I'm still a model. As an agent, shouldn't Ash-sensei be a little bit less suspicious?"
Even though she said that, just looking at Kirara's expression of being so amused that she couldn't stop laughing can tell how happy she actually is.
And you couldn't sleep all night long...Ash You still have the nerve to say that! Last time, I really treated people so badly without any mercy!
"~"
And in the atmosphere of laughter and laughter, it seemed that time had returned to the past. Miss Yao, who put her hands on her cheeks, rarely became calm and maintained a smile, and quietly extended her hand to Ash.
"Don't worry, I won't disappear without saying a word again."
Feeling the small palm covering it, he also covered it with his other hand.
"Isn't that why I'm coming to find you this time?"
"No, I mean."
The hands holding each other conveyed the girl's feelings and pressed them tightly together.
"This time, it's up to us Princess to protect King."
Although in fairy tales, Rider has always protected Princess... But this is not a fairy tale, but our story. There is nothing strange about the other way around, right?
Chapter 36 I want it!
'Blink. '
If you say Ash, you must understand what I mean, right?
'Romantic wink~'
As two people who have actually communicated with each other in the depths of their souls, for them, there are many words that they can understand even if they are not said aloud. It can be regarded as a little secret between the two of them.
"It's great, such a little secret of flirting~"
Seeing the eye contact between the two of them without saying a word, Kirara complained sourly.
"But Kirara I'm so sad to be excluded~"
"No, not anymore! Of course Kirara is with me!"
"Including the last time we were in bed?"
"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
Remote Princess Unit No. 1, announced overheating and silence.
"Ahem!"
Ash, sensing that the atmosphere was starting to get rogue, immediately changed the topic again.
"It's almost time for us to get down to business."
For example, what is going on in this kingdom and why do you appear here...
"Could it be that my Yao suddenly couldn't move after hearing about Princess?"
"Why, how can you say that to others!"
Miss Haruno's ears immediately turned red when she heard such subjective speculation. When she wanted to wave her fists to defend herself, she saw that her companions next to her were all hiding their smiles.
"Big, everyone?"
"Uh-huh~ Lord, it's mainly because Ash said it seems like there's nothing wrong with it."
Although in the final battle against "New Witch of Despair", the girl who transformed into "Grand Princess" together with everyone finally realized her dream of becoming the real Princess. But in everyone's hearts, no matter how mature she has grown, Miss Haruno is still the "little girl" who can hold the Princess picture book and have romantic fantasies~
"Don't laugh! For girls, beautiful dreams are necessary!"
Yao Yao, who rarely started to show off his temper, turned his gaze away with a snort. It wasn't until he was touched by Ash that he slowly calmed down like a small animal.
"However, what I want to say is indeed very similar..."
After the fun, the three of them also told Ash the story of what happened after they parted ways that day.
After listening to the explanations about this country from the girls, Ash thought for a moment and came up with a simplified answer.
"So after you came to this country accidentally, in order to protect this kingdom that was under attack, you spontaneously decided to stay and protect it as Pretty Cure."
"That's pretty much it."
Haruka, who slightly held up the corners of her pure white skirt, looked like a blooming flower. Since that time, today's Yao naturally has more ways to show his charm than before.
"During this period of time, we were respected as Princess by this country without Princess, so we accidentally stayed for a while longer."
"As a responsible person, I am very much like you... But, you said the name of this country is Pumpkin Kingdom?"
Sorry, I skipped here after chopping melons and vegetables. Apart from the magical-style buildings that really fit the description in fairy tales, he really hasn't seen anything related to pumpkins here. If this is a real name, then it's too unworthy of the name, right?
"Because it's too dangerous outside, we asked everyone to hide in the palace and not come out for the time being."
Following Nan's greeting, she opened the curtains next to her, and sure enough, many trembling Pumpkin Sprites crawled out from underneath.
"That's it."
Ash nodded, this is understandable. However, if this was the case, there were also some cunning thoughts that were not so upright and upright, creeping into his mind.
"So Ash, have you seen the guards outside?"
"Kill them all when they see them."
"They should welcome... ah?"
"Huh?"
The girl and Rider stared at each other, and they suddenly realized that there might be some parts that they didn't understand and they were talking about each other completely.
"So, you are saying that the owner here has some kind of control ability, so the monsters outside are recruited by him to defend the country through his ability?"
I see, that's why they looked like guards in the first place.
"That's right. We have worked together to repel several enemy attacks before..."
Nan, who felt that things were getting difficult, looked like his head was hurting.
"Although I guessed that you might call me without saying a word, I didn't expect that it would actually turn out like this. How will you explain it to others after this?"
Ash The girl was quick to dodge the headache that was about to hit her forehead. It seemed that she had a subconscious reaction after experiencing it too many times.
"What are you worried about?"
Ash, who did not believe in evil, continued to stretch out his hand, leaving a red mark from above with great persistence in response to the girl's resentful eyes and "Ouch" sound.
"As long as I'm here now, you can just rely on me at any time!"
"You are my Princess, just smile for me alone is enough!"
"What a domineering king."
"?"
Feeling as if something had happened, Towa raised his little face with a mouth full of cream.
"What happened?"
"It's nothing. If you want to eat, just keep eating."
"Oh."
Looking at the other three Princess, although they also complained, the curvature of the corners of their mouths could not be suppressed at all. Feeling relieved, Towa also turned his attention back to the cake.
Anyway, compared to other troubles, it is much easier as long as you believe Ash.
"It's not good, Master Princess!"
Not long after, a gloomy and well-dressed young man broke in calling the name of Precure. Even dressed as a gentleman, he could not conceal his own panic.
"Those monsters who protected our country were all defeated by unknown persons——"
The minister, who finally regained his breath, smelled something bad. Princess adults who usually should have rushed out in anger when hearing a crisis, why didn't they see anyone now?
"Master Princess? Master Pretty Cure?"
"Stop looking for it."
To the other party's surprise, it was an unfamiliar male voice that responded to him at this moment.
"They won't respond to you because I'm here now."
"!"
As the overhead lights swayed inexplicably, the bright light illuminated the human figure in the shadows. And just when he saw the man who carelessly inserted a piece of pumpkin cake, a sense of crisis shot up from his heels to his spine, making him stand on the spot.
What's wrong with me? Is it because this man... is very dangerous?
"I'm sorry."
Despite suppressing the inexplicable fear in his heart, the man still showed impeccable etiquette.
"I am the minister of this kingdom, who are you?"
For this man, compliments and hypocritical manipulations were completely retained in his instincts. During this moment, his eyes were rolling and he was planning a new plan in his stomach.
Being able to come here, and this guy who gives people an unusual feeling, must not be confronted head-on! But everyone has their own desires and ideas, so let me inquire about them for a while before making any plans.
"Is your name Pumpkin Kingdom?"
However, there was no intention of following his answer at all. Ash, who did not follow common sense, just continued to talk to himself.
"The pumpkins here are really delicious."
"Please, what does this mean?"
Just when his head was filled with questions and doubts, the man leaning on the seat with his arms crossed changed his posture and answered his questions with a smile.
"I'm complimenting you, that's what I mean."
"I want it."
