The old man sat in his seat and looked at the teenager who was kneeling on one knee to report to him about the matter, his eyes showed a satisfied look.
"Aohane did no problem, he is more stable and stronger, so it is normal for him to watch the outsiders from where he is." The village chief stroked his own beard and nodded, feeling very satisfied with what the youth named Aohane had done.
The youth hung his head low, a look of resentment showing in his eyes where the crowd couldn't see it.
"That's right, Aohane is really good! It's just that that outsider over there seems to be very strong, so Brother Aohane asked me to ask for help."
The teenager opened his mouth and said respectfully.
The village chief nodded and looked at the teenager in front of him with some disgust and said, "Jikan you've done a good job as well, but you still need to be a bit more steady in your work!"
Jikan's head lowered down once again, "Okay, Village Chief, I'll correct it!"
'Poor acting...'
The village chief sighed darkly within himself.
"Let's go, have Kikami bring a hunting team with you to help Aohane. be polite to outsiders. But if the other party refuses to cooperate with us..." a hint of ruthlessness appeared on the village chief's face, "then finish them off."
"Aye! Village Chief!"
Looking at the respectful teenager, the village chief narrowed his eyes and waved his hand, every time he saw this child he would feel a huge sense of regret... not because of the useless guy in front of him... but because of his older brother. A genius who died young.
"Let's go, go finish your mission."
"Yes!"
After saying that, the teenager left the village chief's room with a light smile.
And looking at his back as he left, a tall and strong man beside the village chief stared at the teenager with some ferocity.
"Village Chief...what's the point of keeping this white-eyed wolf?" The man sank his face, looking at Jikan with eyes that couldn't even be described as cold.
The village headman smiled, "What, you hate this little guy too?"
"No one in the village likes him...if it wasn't for him Jitetsu wouldn't have died..." the man's tone took on a hint of regret.
"Jikan is after all Jitetsu's younger brother, even if Jikan did something as over the top as he could, Jitetsu wouldn't be able to let it go. If he let go would you guys still like this person that much?"
The village chief asked with a light smile.
The man was stumped by the village elder's question. Recalling the time when they had relieved their backs to the body of that young man who was so many years younger than them...if it wasn't for the fact that his reputation was as good as it was...would they really have been so relieved of this man?
The village chief shook his head and said, ''Even if he was the one who killed Jitetsu, he was still his brother after all. Now that Jitetsu is gone, the rules that the village should have cannot be broken. Until he has the ability to face the forest on his own, we won't banish him either..."
"Of course, if he commits something...that's a different matter."
As the Mayor said this his eyes took on the same hint of coldness.
There was no such thing as not knowing that Jikan was a brute who had personally set up the death of his own brother for nothing more than the fact that his brother had said a few harsh words about him...the man was simply born evil.
Jikan walks down the village road and everyone looks at him with a look of disgust.
Instead, he looked at a Caterpie in a tree and licked his tongue.
The Caterpie felt a chill around it and hurriedly spat its silk away from the spot.
A wry smile appeared at the corner of Jikan's mouth.
He didn't go straight to contact the backup... heh, Lord Aohane was very powerful, it didn't matter if these backups arrived earlier or later.
So he simply returned home first.
As soon as he pushed open the door, a sexy woman dressed a bit strangely was sitting on his bed. But if one looked closely one would realize that this woman wasn't even in contact with the surface of the bed. It was as if if if it wasn't for the sake of not attracting attention...she wouldn't be near such filth.
"You're here again?"
Jikan spoke with a hint of an evil smile.
"Give me your information." The woman had no intention of chatting with Jikan for more than a couple sentences, saying the purpose of her visit and then she would leave after getting what she wanted.
Looking at the woman's seductive body, Jikan couldn't help but feel a little dry in the mouth. Although this guy is not old, he is definitely a sp. What's more, boys and girls like him, in the environment of the village, often have tasted the forbidden fruit.
It was only because of his reputation that even the ugliest girl in the village couldn't look at him as a brute.
"The information will be given to you. What about what I want?"
Of course Jikan was able to control his desires... to be more precise, he was always able to restrain himself when confronted with someone he was powerless to resist...
The woman's face lacked even a single expression. Casually throwing a pill that appeared out of thin air on the ground, he then said, "The same thing as before. Give me the information."
Jikan, however, did not answer her immediately, but after picking up the pill from the ground, he snapped a small piece on the not-so-small pill and then removed the Pokéball from his waist.
With a flash of white light, Houndoom appeared in front of him.
Jikan popped the pill from his fingernail into Houndoom's mouth.
The woman didn't care what Jikan did. It was just an idle move anyway. Came here to relax as well. Otherwise she wouldn't have paid any attention to such a filthy lowly native.
Thinking of this, the woman's mind couldn't help but see a figure in flame armor with fire wings on its back. That battle was still fresh in her mind. Although she only watched from afar as Chess One and that savior fought.
But that savior was too handsome. It really wanted someone to grab him and ravage him. Become something exclusive to himself.
"Unfortunately, it's an official employee of the 'company', something will happen if you really want to take him captive..."
The woman sighed mentally, but her face didn't change much.
She looked at Houndoom's body, which had grown in size. Eyes that had turned blood red, and energy fluctuations that had clearly grown much larger, Jikan nodded in satisfaction. Then he slipped the pill into his pocket.
"The man you mentioned before, he has come to the forest."
Jikan said still smiling.
The woman's indifferent demeanor froze abruptly. With a slight frown, she said, "Are you sure?"
This slight frown even more gave the woman's beautiful face a feeling of I feel sorry for her.
Looking at the woman's erect upper body and smooth thighs, the evil fire in Jikan's heart was almost about to explode.
"Snap! Thud!"
Jikan, who had a red mark on his face and was already lying on top of his clutter, the woman said indifferently, "If you ever look at me with that disgusting look again, I'll gouge out your eyeballs."
"Cough, cough, cough...don't dare, don't dare." Jikan coughed twice then said with a bitter smile on his face. It was as if how innocent he was as a person.
The woman didn't even bother to look at Jikan more than once. She was also the one who caused the bad luck to draw this mission. Otherwise where would she need to be watched by these inferior people.
Stupid people who didn't even know how big heaven and earth really were. They could only ever have this much talent.
Thinking so, the woman's left hand pulled in the void and then disappeared.
This person's usefulness was gone. As for shutting him up forever...it was completely unnecessary. Even if others knew that he was here what could they do. The big deal was that he would just be repatriated back himself.
It's all a small matter. Maybe even get to know that savior over there.
But alas, if memory serves, the people in the main universe basically evaluated the saviors as being talented and ambitious. Having high talent and ability, but on the contrary, they all seem to have little drive...
It was also unknown if this one had the heart to leave this lower world with herself and go to the main world.
In the blink of an eye, the woman went from the cabin she had just been in to the top of the tallest mountain near here. The woman who was stepping on thin high heels and wearing clothes that resembled an evening gown felt the searing source of energy. For a moment there was some infatuation.
This was the savior, even in the main universe it was the group with the highest talent. If these people had been recruited by the great powers of the Main Universe from the beginning, then these few such small people wouldn't have had the chance to get close to them...
So the woman's mouth grinned an expectant smile.
They weren't enemies, were they? It was just a sub-world, it shouldn't be an obstacle between them.
————————————
Rope suddenly stopped in his tracks looking towards a distant hill.
Whitley, who was following closely behind him, followed suit and stopped in his tracks, asking with a puzzled expression, "Rope, what's wrong?"
Rope didn't answer immediately, but instead stared closely at that hill over there. Like he was observing something.
Whitley and Diana also followed and looked over, but unfortunately the distance was too far, they saw nothing. Whitley looked at Rope with some suspicion. If she remembered correctly, Rope should not have the ability to see from afar as well.
Hoopa also followed and looked over.
"Hoopa, did you see anything?"
Rope suddenly asked.
Of course he couldn't see it, he couldn't even sense it with his energy perception. But Rope just somehow felt where someone was staring at him. And it was staring unkindly.
Rope was puzzled. But the feeling was real.
"I don't see anything."
Hoopa's eyesight was of course excellent. Pokémon's eyesight was generally much better than humans.
Not to mention that Hoopa wasn't simply an ordinary Pokémon.
"If Hoopa didn't see it... could it be that person has already left?"
Diana opened her mouth to speculate.
Rope, however, immediately shook his head, he didn't think so... because that feeling of being spied on still hadn't gone away. It was as if there was someone looking at you in front of you. But you couldn't find him for the life of you...
Rope's face became not very pretty. Flames also began to leap from his body. He stretched out one of his hands, made a fist, and then pointed in the direction of that mountain.
A large amount of energy from Rope's body began to surge towards the position of his fist.
Hoopa looked a bit chilled... and couldn't help but to move a bit more behind Whitley... seriously, if Rope's move landed on his own body... the odds were that he was going to be seriously injured...
And just as Rope's move was about to coalesce and complete, that feeling of being spied on disappeared without a trace. It was as if it had never existed.
But Rope knew that the feeling was really there...and that he was being stared at...badly.
And so a pillar of nearly searing white fire blasted straight towards the top of wherever the mountain was.
Whitley and the others saw landslides and flames before a huge boom exploded like dry thunder on flat ground.
Hoopa on the other side, however, turned directly into his liberated form, and then the six rings on his hands began to work at full capacity, and one after another, i.e., a greatly alarmed but unknown Pokémon, appeared.
Luckily, the mountain was an isolated one, and there weren't many Pokémon on it, so Hoopa was able to save it.
Rope breathed a long sigh of relief, then gave Hoopa a grateful look, and Hoopa shook his head at him, signaling that he didn't need to care.
This was nothing. Wasn't it normal for a god to get angry and destroy a mountain or something?
Even Hoopa didn't know how many times he had done this kind of thing. And Hoopa wasn't always in the mood to make amends for the trouble he caused.
Rope hooked his hand in that direction, and then a large mass of flames once again left its place and surged towards Rope's side. So Rope alone was flooded with flames.
Unfortunately, within that short period of time, a large chunk of that one mountain top had been blown apart.
It was good that Hoopa reacted quickly, or else these Pokémon would have lost their lives.
A few moments later, the flames were all collected into Rope's body, and Rope sneezed, spewing out some lava. Then sniffing, she said, "I feel better, let's go."
Whitley and Hoopa were fine. But Diana, this was indeed the first time she had seen Rope's power, so she gulped a mouthful of saliva and followed behind Rope.
The way she looked at Rope was no longer the way she looked at a researcher's seniors...but rather the way she was looking at cherished research materials...
That said, but this should be the reaction of any researcher when they see Rope's ability.
Unfortunately, not everyone was so calm...
Aohane, who was hanging behind them, watched the scene just now with his mouth so long that he couldn't close it for a while...
On one side, Bisharp only felt that he had escaped, he glanced at his own master who had been stunned, and then silently breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, his own master hadn't given any orders to go up and beat the person up and bring them back, or else he was afraid that he wouldn't be there now...
Rope and the others 'pacified' these Pokémon that had been transferred out for a while, and then proceeded to the depths of the forest, in the direction of the village.
"Cha? (Master... still want to watch them head towards the village?)"
The question was asked with a level head.
So Aohane fell into silence.
