Ash had thought that she would make the first move without saying anything when they met again. After all, she did have this character. But no matter whether it was a fist or a kick, it was all good, but this direct blow was so unexpected that he couldn't react at all.
"Ahem - I should be grateful that at least he didn't give me a butt punch like Erika did to welcome me!"
No, I am now as old as my daughter! He quickly put his distorted thinking circuit back on track, and used a back roll that showed no signs of unfamiliarity to distance him. Ash, who was half-crouching on the ground with one hand on the ground, had the luster of Burning Driver flashing around his waist!
"You still greet me in this way after I haven't seen you for a long time, so I won't be polite! Henshin!"
Although if the opponent is Supreme Angel, there won't be much difference if he remains unchanged, but Ash still puts on his posture first to see what Primum's reaction is. As a result...
"Puka? Puka... Puka!"
Holding a pair of rabbit ears in her arms, "Primum" looked quite flustered for some reason, as if she was eager to explain something to Ash, but all that came out of her mouth were "pukas" with unclear meanings. It was obvious to the naked eye that she was even more anxious when she was treated on the spot.
"You mean... let me attack with all my strength without hesitation? Okay! Then I won't be polite -!"
"Puka... Puka Kaka Kaka!!"
In the changing voice that was so sharp that it almost pierced the sky, Ash stopped abruptly as Rider Kick was about to take off.
"You are not Primum." He put down his fist helplessly. Although his appearance and uniform were basically the same, there was only one thing that was unmistakable. "But it turned into Puka, right?"
"P... Puka?"
Carefully, he raised the pitiful face with tearful eyes written all over it, as if he was wondering how Ash could see it despite the language barrier.
"Well, ask me why you can recognize it?"
Looking at the trembling rabbit-eared girl in front of him, Ash felt that this was obvious without any explanation.
Primum She is as arrogant as I was before I was cleared. I really can't imagine her doing such a thing.
"Besides, this was originally a habit you had when you couldn't speak, right?"
After all, I have spent so much time with you, but this is the only thing I won't admit.
"Then you not only changed into a human, but also changed from an elf into Pretty Cure? Although this kind of thing is not uncommon in Pretty Cure, then how about this form... call it Cure Puca (Puka Angel)?"
"That's it."
When she was knocked down before, I was so focused on her that I didn't notice her. Now if she looked around, it would be terrible.
It is obvious that I am not in my own home now, but in a place that is more familiar than home to a certain extent.
"Why are you here?"
Isn't this the place where you stay with the system every time you die?
As a person caught in the gap between the world, how did he get hit here by a hammer? Could it be that Puka's headbutt also has a special warp effect like Gentaro's rocket sword? That's pretty awesome.
As a gap connecting different worlds... Ash, who was thinking of something, looked around in Puka's confused eyes, and sure enough, he saw many pictures from different worlds above his head. And the people on the other side of the screen - isn't this Haruka and Miyuki? It would be better to say that everyone is here.
But Homi clearly said that everyone was just going out for business and would be back soon?
"Ash?"
Another familiar voice caught the man's attention. It was the fully mature royal sister version Aida Mana, judging from her dress, standing behind a door not far away, looking at him with confusion on her face.
"Why are you here? What happened?"
"Puka!"
Oh, I understand, so it was through this door that Puka hit me, right?
"Hurry up Ash, everyone is waiting for you."
After seeing Ash, Ai on the other side immediately waved to him with a smile. As a result, this made Puka next to him anxious.
"Puka – Puka!!!"
"Okay, okay, let me finish the business first, and then I can discuss with you how you became like this."
Gaixia put his palm on the top of the excited Puka's head, ignoring the protest and pushing her back the way she came. Ash turned to Mana, who was waving to him.
"I'm sorry, there was a slight accident, and we have to add an extra person to the seat today."
"These are not problems." As his wife, Aida Mana's affectionate eyes were full of love that was about to become connected with Ash. "Ash, we..."
"No!"
Two voices that were the same but completely different in meaning sounded almost at the same time.
In the scene that looked like a split, the girl-like "Aida Mana" broke away from the adult-like "Aida Mana" very strongly. Like the previous Puka, she bumped into Ash's arms and pushed him far away from the door.
"Love? How could-?"
Ash, who was sitting on the ground, looked at Mana, who was lying in his arms and was extremely excited, and then looked at Mana, who was still standing in front of the door, his eyes losing their highlights but still maintaining a weird smile. For a moment, he was even more confused than when he recognized Puka as Primum, and the sound effect of someone's transformation kept repeating in his mind like a single loop.
In order to avoid unclear explanations over and over again, Ai directly pressed their foreheads together and passed on what he saw and knew.
"That's not me... or to be precise, it's not who I am now."
He turned around and smiled bitterly at his other self behind him. The main reason was that Aida Mana himself couldn't say whether he would end up like this after getting married.
"Pukapu..."
Seeing Ash being stopped by Ai, Puka finally breathed a sigh of relief. He obviously suddenly sensed the aura of Primum, and finally used the feeling to activate the potential energy and successfully transformed himself into Pretty Cure. As a result, his language function suddenly deteriorated to the point where he couldn't speak and almost died on the spot.
On the other side, Ash, who had more and more questions, hurriedly asked Ai, the only one who could answer.
"Mana, what on earth is going on? What on earth happened——"
"Ash! That's not Mirai. Everything you and Homi have experienced is not real!" While pressing his hands on the man's face to convey warmth, it was also to make him look at his sincerity at the moment. "The reason why there is only beautiful Mirai is because all this is her dream!"
"Dream?!"
You mean, everything I thought was the world that Mirai will talk about later... is actually just like a set set up in a studio?
"But I can clearly feel that neither Rikka nor the world itself is fake!"
"Because these are all true."
Rikka They were attracted by such a gentle and beautiful dream and became its characters. The world itself is indeed real. Even I had antibodies that had a similar experience due to "Marlow" in the past, so I temporarily regained myself when I saw Ash.
"One that can create an entire world."
According to Ash's knowledge, there is only one person who can do this now!
Just like the floating pictures that are floating above their heads now, this is why everyone who is Pretty Cure fell into the trap!
"This dream brings us together, and because of this, it also allows me to see some secrets about her."
Feeling that she might be pulled back at any time, the love continued to strengthen her will. In order to persist no matter how long she would, she brought her eyes that were gradually blurring closer, just to make the man reflected in her eyes clearer.
Sorry Ash, I don't have enough time to tell you the details.
"She is a good child, but she was too eager and did something wrong. I can also feel her sadness, but what she needs now is to bear this sadness more than to escape. Ash, you have to help her accept this fact."
"Love!" The hand he subconsciously grabbed passed directly through her arm, leaving only the last words she left to herself when she was pulled back by him to leave.
"If she is really our daughter...Ash, then please come and save her!"
"!"
When he opened his eyes again, the Aida Mana he held in his arms seemed to be his fantasy. The only one left was Aida Mana standing by the door and continuing to wave to him.
"What's wrong, Ash?"
The so-called Aida Mana Mirai posture, right? She really grew up and became a beautiful woman as she said.
As long as you accept the invitation, all the happiness you desire will become reality. After all, these are all true.
"Aren't you coming?"
I really want to go there. However, the movement of Ash's feet was in the opposite direction of his inner thoughts, taking one step or two steps back.
"No, I can't go there yet."
As if he was afraid that he would regret it and accept it, after the man stood up, he hugged the man next to him who was still in a daze and didn't know what happened, and ran out in the completely opposite direction!
"Not yet - not yet!"
"Really..."
Looking at the man running to the limit, Aida Mana, who raised his arms and lowered his arms, did not let go of the smile on his face, but slowly lowered his head to the back like a blessing.
"Have a nice trip."
I would like to apologize again to all the readers who support me at this moment. I'm sorry! There is nothing that satisfies you... It's just that I really want to write something about this last part, and I just hope that everyone can support it when the time comes.
Chapter 256 Who was deceived?
"Hey, what happened——!?"
When the gushing light enveloped the entire world like a curtain, Sakagami Ayumi felt like he had just closed and opened his eyes and arrived at this strange place.
I don't know why similar things always have nothing to do with her, and she can't get involved even if she wants to. I don't know if this is considered lucky or unfortunate.
After searching aimlessly in the void, she actually found Ash and...Primum?!
"Puka! Puka! I am Puka——!?" Seeing that she was also very alert and put on a posture, she immediately wanted to repeat the previous operation of Ash. She was so anxious that she jumped up and down and finally blurted out. Puka was surprised to find that he could speak normally?! "In short, we were deceived, and Homi was also deceived into Puka! We now have to bring the real Homi back from this world into Puka!"
"Puka - turned into Precure? Ash?"
Ayumi, who received a nod of approval from Ash, didn't worry too much about trivial matters. Now she had more urgent things to inform them both. "I didn't see Homi, but I saw Ashu and her—"
Before he finished speaking, two groups of intertwined meteors landed not far away from the three of them like a disaster from the sky with a deafening roar. While the impact spread and knocked everyone to the ground, their explosive power even made the entire space between them tremble three times as if they were unstable!
"With what?!"
"You, you saw it yourself!"
If you take a closer look, who are these two "shooting stars" if they are not Ashu and Kaler who are fighting fiercely after transformation?
When Ashu and Kaler both show their true skills to fight at this moment, as representatives of each other who have stitched together all the power in their respective sets, the scene of these two fighting is really like a fight between gods!
Gorgeous flying pink ribbons and strange weapons fly together, and the sacred and noble light dances with the complex and powerful rainbow! If ordinary people were allowed to watch, even if they were not affected, they would probably have an epileptic seizure soon.
Hearing the movement, he glanced at the three people below with his peripheral vision. Seeing their Ashu, he didn't say a word. Instead, he gritted his teeth and continued to rush forward to fight Kalle even more fiercely!
"Ashu She is buying us time Puka!" Immediately, it was seen that her best friend wanted Puka to have a cold face, just like Supreme Angel stood up with a cold face during the battle in the past, but she said quite passionate lines. "In this case, I'm going to help her."
I am Ash's lover. If I don't do it, who will?
"Me too." Ayumi, who transformed into cure echo without any hesitation, made the same choice as Puka. "This time I won't let Ash carry everything by himself again!"
I am also Pretty Cure from Ash. Needless to say what I can do, right?
Although when it comes to probation, they are definitely better at their job as legendary warriors, but when it comes to who is the most suitable to do this, it can only be Ash.
Ash Without even saying a few words, the two ladies with full subjective initiative had already decided on the goal. "Then I only have one answer!"
Since Mana asked me, she is also my daughter. If I, Ash, don't come, who will do it?
"Come on, my Ash."
With a hug as the final farewell, the two of them let go and flew towards one of the meteors without looking back! After receiving the blessing of the two companion stars, the two sides collided again and again, erupting into even more dazzling brilliance!
"Go find Homi, find Homi first! Find Homi!"
We must not waste the hard-earned time on unnecessary things, and try not to let our attention be drawn away by the increasingly louder tremors and screams above our heads. At this moment, Ash, who is fully focused, can be said to have eyes and ears in all directions, and all his efforts are just to find a girl first!
"After I was brought out of the dream world by Puka, Homi should also have been taken out together. The question is, where is she now? Could she have fallen into other worlds... She must be found, she must be found!"
"Yo." Ash, who was searching frantically, was startled when he suddenly heard his own voice. He immediately looked in the corresponding direction and saw Kaler, who was knocked down and lying on the ground paralyzed to greet him. "Are you looking for someone?"
"Yeah, I really hope you can kindly show me the way out."
"Look over there."
"Oh, you thought I would get into something so simple -" Although he said this, he still subconsciously looked over there and saw the pure white figure that he had been looking for for a long time... Is it really there?! If nothing else, at least I recognize your honesty!
"Homi!"
She was about to say something else, but was punched in the face by the three women together. Kale flew further away. Ash stood behind her in three steps and two steps at a time.
"Dad!"
When he saw her unchanged voice and surprised expression when she turned around, Ash was finally able to let go of one of the two stones hanging in her heart. "Great, you're not too late!"
"You too! The sudden disappearance almost scared me to death..."
