Chapter One Hundred and Twenty-Eight: Revival! Cure Moonlight!

“Such an attack… hmph, what?”

Amidst the dark clouds covering the sky, the dark blue mage bullet dragon successfully summoned from Strike Dragon Sword was instantly blown away by the sudden burst of dark power.

“Can you let this happen?”

“It won’t do any good.” Turning around, the Dark Pretty Cure faced the swordsman charging at her in blue light, raising two fingers. Amidst Eddie’s terror, she managed to catch the strike of the Dragon Slayer Sword with her bare fingers! “The attacks of the unworthy will never work, no matter how many times they come!”

“Kaaah——!!!!!”

Eddie, who couldn’t react fast enough, only saw the opponent’s fist approaching him from beneath his armor in a terrifying manner. Then everything went black before he experienced a dizzying disorientation, his helmet’s lower half shattering into pieces, leaving him upside down. He spun out like a living gyroscope.

After sustaining severe injuries, not a part of his body didn’t ache as he rolled down from where he had been flung. The grass beneath him skinned off as he scraped along the ground until he could no longer support the Magic Bullet Armor and his transformation automatically deactivated. The man with his mouth closed and eyes shut painfully held his chest.

“Mr. Eddie!”

The three people supporting each other tried to get up to assist their comrade but could not muster the strength due to the pain and energy depletion.

“What happened? Why is she so much stronger today?”

Lei’s indignant voice echoed everyone’s thoughts. Through continuous battles and growth, they believed that uniting their forces would be enough to counter the powerful Dark Pretty Cure.

But for some reason, today’s Dark Pretty Cure had unleashed unprecedented vigor and power, far surpassing anything they had seen before. Even though Lei and the others fought desperately together, they were no match against the dark girl. They were all sent flying when Eddie arrived midway to help.

“Hmpf, thinking unity would defeat me?” She pressed her high-heeled shoe onto Eddie’s chest, provoking another cry of pain from the man. “There’s no way it’s that easy. I’m invincible, and even more of you weaklings would still fail to challenge me.”

“If you don’t want more pain, hand over Tsukikage Lily and that man right now!”

“Sternly!” Wuki clenched her fists, stepping in front of the others. Although they collectively intended to protect Lily and the owner, none of them could even protect themselves now.

“Are you waiting… hmm?” The Dark Pretty Cure halted, looking down to see Eddie, whose face was swollen from the fight, gripping her ankle, which was lodged in his chest.

“Heh… No matter what, I’m also a Magic Bullet Warrior of SCSO… Would you make me do this?”

“As you wish, then.”

In the少女’s cold gaze, her clawed hand gathered destructive power in the form of dark lightning. But this time, Eddie held on, determined to the end.

Just as she was about to destroy him, sudden radiance filled the Dark Pretty Cure’s surroundings. Not just points of starlight, but more light appeared in response to something, shining through the tree canopy, grass, and nature.

“Glow of Heart Tree… what?”

The Dark Pretty Cure kicked free, the unwelcome mass cast away. A silver-red electric train appeared on an empty track, passing before her amidst petals of light.

As the train drove away, leaving her presence, two figures emerged, with Tsukikage Lily standing sharp and radiant in full purple glow. Next to her, Ash stood, shouldering the large sword embedded with four electrified masks and holding the Den-O belt and Rider ticket case.

“Lily and Store Owner!”

The三人, seeing Eddie unconscious but unharmed, joyfully called out. Ash waved back with flair.

“The posture of Lady Lily… could it be?”

Seeing Lily and Ash return was a great delight for the girls who also noticed their most noticeable attribute: their increasing power and the new light in their eyes.

“The change in Store Owner’s gaze?”

Lei’s words reminded Ash of recent words from Momotaros and others.

‘We were worried sick! Thought something happened, turns out it was good news indeed. That manly look he has!’

‘Tch, such a headache. If it weren’t friends lending to anyone except Ryotaro, we’d never consider. This time I’m not saying much about what you plan, but do your best!’

“Hmpf, heroes are all fools. Only fools can be heroes.”

Holding the Den-O belt to her waist after slinging it, the buckle sealed tightly around her. “K”TAROS was earlier installed at its center. Finished, she propped up the “Electro Mask Excalibur,” mimicking a famous painting, as Ash looked eagerly at Lily beside him.

“Tsukikage Lily… You, this!”

Alarm bells rang in the Dark Pretty Cure’s mind, alerting her to a dire situation. She felt the lost parts of herself from the past had returned, making her once formidable enemy stand before her again.

“Courage, love, friendship…”

“Gentleness, sadness, joy.”

Lily glanced tenderly upon everyone behind her, with her mother, Kuron (and the unknown figure on the ground) included. Her most crucial people stood alongside her, cheering her on and fighting beside her.

Taking off her glasses allowed her eyes, unobstructed, to meet Ash’s steady gaze silently asking a critical question.

“Oh, it’s all set.”

And Ash responded.

Three spirits seemed also summoned, holding the heart seed-filled ‘Heart Pot’ and placing it in Lily’s outstretched hand.

This, the effort of the Precures, the beautiful fighters who battled fiercely to save everyone, served as evidence of their struggle!

“These hold all emotions, hearts of everyone.”

“I will fight, for the hearts of everyone!”

Her hands, holding shards of purple heart seeds, were now fully illuminated by uncountable light.

Ash raised his wrist and inserted the Rider Ticket into the Electro Mask Excalibur’s slot, triggering “[Liner Form!]”.

“PrecureOpenMyHeart!”

“Hen- Shin!”

In the dual interwoven lights, the two heroic characters stood side by side.

Radiant purple flowers drifted through the air in delicate, noble elegance.

“A flower under the serene moonlight, Cure Moonlight (Moonlight Angel)! ”

Or the shadow of four differently colored super trains crossing the span of time.

“This one presents himself.”
