Gadelia is one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Ichishu region, but he was originally the owner of the Battle Castle, one of the battle frontier facilities in the Sinnoh region. At present, Gadelia is one of the Four Heavenly Kings, and it seems that Cochrane and the members of the Cochran family are the masters of the Battle Castle.

There is also the Gardelia family, which is headquartered in the Nou region. As a result, Gardelia occasionally returns to the Sinnoh region.

"I see, is that so?"

"I hope you can come here again."

"I see. Metagross thank you, I have to do it again. ”

When raising Metagross, Keim based on the method of raising Daigo and Cattleya. This was partly due to the fact that the original training theory had been established, and Metagros was able to gain abilities that counted as Kem's combat power relatively quickly. The benefits that Kem got were also huge, so I want to thank him again.

"Looks like we're going to be in the Sinnoh region for a while.

"Okay then, but isn't he one of the Four Heavenly Kings? Don't you have a job? ”

The Four Heavenly Kings are the top trainers of the Pokémon League. So, it should be busy, if not as busy as the champion.

"I heard you gave the job to the housekeeper."

"Butler? Mr. Cochrane? ”

"It seems to be from Mr. Cochran's house."

"It's hard to be tough"

The work of the Four Heavenly Kings should not be so easy. I don't think there's any butler who can say he doesn't like to be suddenly thrown at Gadelia, who is about to become the next head of the house. I don't know about the housekeeper, but in my heart, Kem feels sorry for him.

"Let's decide on the schedule again.

"Yes"

Cam rolled up the sleeves of his shirt and picked up the apron that hung from the back of his chair.

"Ah, are you going to make New Year's dishes?"

"Oh, I'll do what I can today, and get everything ready that I can only prepare while I'm still here. There are a lot of things that last a long time, but there are also quite a few. It's best to do it on the day. ”

With that, Kem stood in the kitchen. Lucario walked into the kitchen as if sensing that Kem was about to start cooking.

"Oh, can you help me?"

Hearing Cam's words, Lucario nodded slightly. Kem patted Lucario on the head and began to cook. The food is cooked crispy with skilled hands, but the number of royal festivals is large. So, even if you progress quickly, it will take some time.

Sirona looked at Kem, who was cooking quickly, and opened her mouth.

"Akagi reminds me of that, but have you heard about what happened after Team Galaxy?"

In response to Sirona's questioning, Kem's hand paused for a moment, but he began to move his hand again.

"Just in case. This is an organization that causes a lot of trouble, and the story spreads to the gym. It was not demolished, but it is said that it cannot be moved unless it is under the supervision of the dokan. "Pokémon League."

"Yes, the reason why it was not demolished was because there was almost no participation in that incident, and it seems that 90% of the members did not know about it."

"The remaining 10% are not told what they are going to do in the end."

It seems that even high-level officials like Mars and Jupiter don't seem to know Akagi's ultimate purpose. Maybe all they know is to "summon divine Pokémon to change the world in their way". I don't know if you know it's meant to make you lose your mind.

"Akagi's Pokémon: I trust Akagi from the bottom of my heart. But I don't know if you think that's unnecessary too. ”

"Maybe that's what you think. The hatred in his heart was so strong. ”

"So, is the loyalty of the higher-ups of the Galaxy Gang also superfluous?"

All members of the Galactic Gang have a strong sense of loyalty to Akagi. The reason why Akagi trusts and admires him so much is probably not only because of Akagi's own ability to grasp the human body, but also because he treats his subordinates properly.

Normally, this would be a good thing. But when the heart is gone, so is the loyalty. Sirona felt that something was not quite right.

"I want to know, Akagi's purpose is to erase his heart. So he must have thought that the loyalty of the executives would disappear, but did he find it 'unpleasant'? I don't even know what loyalty is. "It's ongoing."

"That's right."

Only Akagi himself can understand this. Shirona and I both feel that our hearts are precious. ”

“… Yes"

No matter how hard you try, you are an incompatible being. Shirona and Akagi feel this way for each other, but how did they get this feeling, and did they really think that way? I couldn't help but think.

"Because we have a heart, we can feel anger and sadness. But at the same time, we can also feel joy, happiness, and love.

Perhaps, the joy and happiness we feel is more than just good emotions, and we can't stand sadness and anger.

For Kem, the only reason he couldn't believe in his heart was that he had been betrayed by something. I don't know exactly how it happened, but if I was betrayed by something I believed in and I couldn't stand it, maybe it would be possible to deny my heart. That's what I thought.

"'The gibberish of those who have lived happily ever after.'" That's what Akagi told me. I'm sure Akagi doesn't have a good past. ”

"Maybe"

"If there was someone who could stand on Akagi's side, maybe she wouldn't be like this."

Of course, Hakuna can't forgive Akagi for what he did. But even so, if there was someone to rely on, Akagi might not be like this.

"If you can, don't think about it."

"Yes"

After all, there is enough to talk about by Bai Nai and others now. But even so, he couldn't help but think of Akagi, an existence who had tried to create the world he wanted with his "faith".

"It's getting dark, shall we change the subject?"

"Do you want to look back on the year?"

"Good. Speaking of this year, the first is the Shinto site. ”

Holy Ruins. It is an archaeological site that encompasses the culture of the Sinnoh and Johto regions, and is one of the topics of a paper written by Shirona this year.

"That place is quite an interesting ruin.

"That's right, it's a strange ruin, with two different cultures. There are "three layers" that represent time, space, and antimatter, so this is a relic created by the people of the Sinnoh region. I prophesied:

"yes. The gods mentioned in Sinnoh mythology, such as Yaluka, Palukiru, and Giratina, were all created based on assumptions. The gods enshrined in the Johto region are King Feng and Lokia. They are not Pokémon from the Sinnoh region. "Sinnoh mythology, so if you think about it, they are people from the Sinnoh region.

Shirona's view is that the people of the Sinnoh region migrated to the Johto area and created these ruins with their homeland in mind. Not only the gun column, but also the presence of "Unown", which symbolizes the ruins of Alf, was seen, so this is a plausible theory, in fact, the thesis, which was well received in the academic community in the first place, was written by Sirona, and there were no problems with the article.

"And then, you started the bullet journey, right?"

"I want to plan a little more."

Sirona may have intended to do this from the beginning, but Kem didn't know that. As a result, the trip survey was not planned at all, but there was no doubt that it was a good experience for Kem, although he complained about it.

"I'm sorry, let's plan it next time."

"Please do so.

Shirona is still the champion, but Kem is a candidate for the leader of the gym. Since it has not yet been confirmed that he will be appointed as the gym director, he is currently the gym instructor of Myokem, but considering the future, he is definitely in a situation where he cannot do whatever he wants.

"The first place I went to in the Johto area was Yoshino City, Altomare, to be exact."

"That's a nice place"

"Yes.

Muttering, Sirona gently stroked the red ring on the ring finger of her right hand.

In Altomaré, I got to know not only people like Caron and Pengola, but also Latias and Ladios. Our meeting may have been a coincidence, but that encounter allowed us to build a great relationship that we still keep in touch with today. Latias was particularly fond of Sirona, and Cuarón often contacted him to tell him that Latias wanted to meet him.

"It's time for Latias to feel lonely and probably start crying."

"Even though it's a neighborhood, we're busy, so we can't get there easily. Maybe we'll consider going there next time we're on back-to-back holidays. ”

"Maybe that's good. I'd also like to meet Ladios. "

Kaim also misses Ladias, but if anything, he has a good relationship with Ladias. Ladios, as cool as he is, not only feels sympathy for Kem, who is of a similar status to himself, but also gets along well with him.

"I want to study the history of that town a little more."

"Think about it, after learning a little bit about the history of Altomare, you're feeling unusually depressed."

Altomare has a history of using the power of Latias and Ladios to protect the city. However, this history is definitely not a mistake made by people due to arrogance, but the path chosen by the people of the city and the ancestors of Ladias and Ladios after painful decisions. This is not a history that makes you feel shy even when you feel sad.

"Yes. It's still painful to think about those who made these decisions. But that's why I also want to get to know the people who are able to make those decisions. ”

"The history of mankind is not always good. Understanding this, studying the history of suffering, and thinking about the lives and intentions of the people at that time, is the real joy of archaeology. ”

"Anyway, I'd like to go again."

For the two of them, the land of Altomare is a very impressive land, and a land where they have had beautiful encounters. Both history and friends decided to visit again.

"After that, I think that's where Donghe's classmates are."

"yes. Ubame Forest, to be exact. "

The two of them came to the forest where Tova lived because they fell into the time warp of Sherabi, who was being hunted by hunters, and jumped to another dimension. When Shelabi is injured, she uses the power of the forest to heal her wounds. These energies not only heal Sherabi's body, but also have the power to travel through time and space. At that time, the two of them were swept up in the passage of time, as they were at the very moment when Sherabi escaped through time travel to time without hunters.

"Why did it change from the forest of Upom to the forest of Tohwa classmates, I don't know what happened in the end."

"If you think about it, it's probably a way of thinking that unscrupulous people like us are involved and the coordinates are shifted.

"Got it"

"I think Sherabi may have instinctively felt safer in that forest, but I don't know."

Shelabi herself was seriously injured at the time, so it's likely that she only had the idea of "anyway, go to a safe place". Even if you think you've traveled through time in a frenzy to get to that forest, there's no sense of incongruity.

"That's where you met Towa-san, right?"

"Was he about the same age as Sirona at the time?"

"yes. Both in the past and now, Donghe classmates are my good friends. We're still in touch now. "
