Pokémon: Rise of Evil

Chapter 578 Undercurrent

"why?"

Ah Quan asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Sayuri pointed to the ceiling and said:

"Because the woman he loves the most is now on the rooftop, hypnotizing the entire building with telekinesis.

No one can go out with a secret.

Except for a few people, of course, like you and me, and a few of those women, or the few she would believe."

"is that so?

She should be more sad than you and me, after all, she is the one who has spent the longest time with the Führer and has the closest relationship with him. "

"I guess so. Who knows how many romantic debts he has owed?"

The two women looked at each other, then sighed, but then smiled at each other.

But both of them soon stopped laughing because the occasion was inappropriate and they couldn't laugh because the man was lying there quietly and might never wake up again.

Wiping away the tears that were about to fall from the corners of his eyes, A Quan said goodbye to Sayuri, and then went to the roof alone.

I don't know why, but the wind was so strong late at night, as if it was a sign of dark clouds pressing down on the city, ready to destroy it.

Facing the cold wind, A Quan slowly came to the top of the tower. When he looked up, he saw Gardevoir standing on the top of the tower, looking calmly at the darkness in the distance.

"Madam President, I have something to report."

Hearing the voice coming from behind, Gardevoir turned her head slightly, her face looking a little haggard and tired.

“No need to say more, I understand, the Thunder Slate is lost, right?

You can tell by looking at the vast expanses of darkness in the distance.

But it’s actually more than that, isn’t it?”

“Yes… yes.

The emerald green slate and water-drop slate used by Qiuye Town to significantly increase food production also disappeared one after another.

The steel slabs used by Fuyan Town to mass-produce steel are also missing.

The fist slate we used for training also disappeared, as did the dragon slate...

According to subsequent investigations, they disappeared without a trace at the spot where they were.”

"Your name is Aquan, right?"

"Yes, Madame Fuhrer."

“Don’t be so reserved, and don’t blame yourself for this, it’s not your fault.

Everything happened so suddenly. After he fell, everything happened so suddenly."

As if she had thought of something, Gardevoir forced herself to free herself from her sadness and began to ask Aquan.

"Achao also died heroically, right?"

"Yes, it is."

Ah Quan replied with a choked voice.

"I don't know how to comfort you now, but I have something he left behind, which was originally given to you."

As he spoke, Gardevoir took out two medals from his arms, and then handed them to Aquan using telekinesis.

“According to him, it was the Iron Cross, the highest honor a soldier can receive.

You can hang it on both of their graves tomorrow or tonight."

Looking at the shining red Iron Cross medals in front of him, A Quan took them with trembling hands.

"Thank you, thank you..."

“You’re welcome, this is what I should do.

If you have nothing else to do, you can go down. I want to stay here alone for a while."

"Yes...thank you..."

Looking at Aquan who left with sobs, Gardevoir didn't know what she was thinking about, and tears fell from the corners of her eyes involuntarily.

"Master...I'm so scared..."

……

Far away in the mansion of the Yuto family in the Kanto region, lying on a large golden nanmu bed, the elderly Yuto Chiyo seemed to feel something, opened her eyes instantly, and began to mutter to herself.

"Impossible! Impossible!

How could this happen? How could this happen?

Jiaozi, she is dead!!!"

Hearing the noise coming from the room, Uncle Fu, who was guarding the door, opened the door and rushed in immediately.

"Miss! What happened?!"

"Quick! Xiao Fuzi! Tell me this isn't true! This isn't true!

Why? Why did I lose? Why!

Impossible! I won't lose! I won't lose!!

Take me to see that person, quickly!"

"Miss…"

"Stop talking nonsense and take me there!"

"Yes…"

In a manor in Yanmo City located in the northeast corner of the Johto region, an old man was kneeling under the eaves with his hands clasped together. He looked at the sky with cloudy eyes, as if he could see something.

"Grandpa, you're acting so strange today. You usually stay in the Dragon Temple and never go out of the front or back door.

How come you are free today?"

"Xiaochun, be quiet, Grandpa is praying."

Yu Longdu, who was standing nearby, warned in a low voice.

But Xiaochun just rolled his eyes at him and said "tsk".

"Cousin, you're not funny or humorous at all. I don't know why so many girls like you."

The two were about to start arguing, but were stopped by a hoarse voice.

"Xiaochun... there are guests coming, go greet them."

Xiao Chun pouted, glared at Yulongdu, and then strode away.

"Grandpa, you spoil Xiaochun too much."

The Dragon Elder shook his head and didn't say much, but continued to pray to the sky.

Time passed by minute by minute, and with the footsteps of three people slowly approaching this side, the so-called guests also arrived.

"Grandpa, the guests are here."

"Okay...Adu, Xiaochun, you two go down first."

After hearing what the Dragon Elder said, A'du and Xiaochun looked at each other and answered in unison:

"Yes, Grandpa."

"Don't imitate my speech, A'du."

"Have some manners, Tsubaki. I'm your cousin."

"Humph~"

As the sounds of the two men's fighting and scolding faded away, the only ones left were Elder Dragon, Yuto Chiyo and Fu Bo who had rushed over.

But before Yuto Chiyo could speak first, the Dragon Elder said quietly:

"To be honest, you disappoint me."

"Sir! Please give me another chance, please!"

Yuto Chiyo knelt down humbly and knocked her head on the floor with a bang. Then she kept her head buried in the ground, not daring to raise it.

Uncle Fu, who was standing nearby, saw this scene but did not dare to help her up, because when he was young, he had already experienced how terrifying this old man in front of him, who had lived for who knows how many years, was.

For a moment, the scene became quiet and dead silent, and the only sound was the ticking sound of the bamboo timing rod under the running water.

However, the Dragon Elder's next words soon broke the tranquility of the moment.

"Chance? I've already given it to you, but you didn't cherish it.

Besides, trash is trash. No matter how many chances you give them, they are still useless.”

As he spoke, the Dragon Elder slowly stood up, turned his back to Yuto Chiyo and said:

"You shouldn't have come here. Maybe you could have lived a few more years."
