Ash glanced sideways, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
He had not spent all that time talking to himself for one person, yet the Supreme Angel beside him merely stood there expressionlessly, offering no response as she watched everything continue.
Though he knew his own "Valkyrie" was like one of those classic emotionless characters, uninterested in everything except him and not exactly a traditional hero...
But this would not do. A hero should at least show some reaction at a time like this. Wait.
"!"
Combining it with his earlier worries, a flash of inspiration split through the darkness behind Ash's head like lightning.
I have a great idea! And I shall call it Ash's Greatest Hero Raising Plan!
As the light bulb representing inspiration flashed above Ash's head, the expressionless Primum merely found it all boring.
If someone strong like Dust would get excited upon facing Pretty Cure and want to challenge her to prove himself, then she truly and completely ignored ordinary people with no power at all.
Including these people working so hard to rebuild. To her, they were no different from ants bustling around at her feet. They were merely part of the machinery maintaining this stage. Even protecting them was only for the sake of becoming Pretty Cure's... Why did Ash specifically care about them?
Was this interesting?
"Is it interesting~?"
Without even needing to read her mind, Ash could guess what the Supreme Angel was thinking. He actually took her hand and led her toward the other side.
"Why not try it yourself?"
"Try it?"
"It is not anything troublesome... You can accept this little suggestion from your boyfriend, right?"
Seeing that there was hope, Ash clenched a fist inwardly at his own eloquence and hurriedly led her toward the construction crew.
