By the time Phoebe's Gengar reacted, the energy in Roy's hand had already been swallowed by the old woman's Gengar, which even smacked its lips with a look of enjoyment after finishing.
Phoebe's Gengar and about to go and complain to the old woman.
The old woman was also quite surprised; how could the energy in Roy's hand attract her Gengar?
Her Gengar is High-level Elite Four member, and normally wouldn't bother absorbing the Ghost type aura from Mt. Pyre.
Roy didn't care at all about the comparison. After all, even when Agatha's Gengar was around, it ate the Intermediate Pokéblock he made with Ghost Power. Although the energy in them couldn't meet Gengar's needs, they tasted good.
Seeing that Phoebe's Gengar was about to use "Outrage," Roy once again condensed a ball of Ghost Power in his hand and held it in front of Phoebe's Gengar, which finally made the big purple fat guy stop crying.
While absorbing the Ghost Power from Roy's hand, Phoebe's Gengar remained wary of the old woman's Gengar, worried that it might try to steal its food again.
The old woman was also puzzled. She looked at her husband and saw that his eyes were also confused. He didn't know why either.
The Ghost Power in Roy's hands was clearly inferior to theirs, and he couldn't determine its level.
It's not high-level, judging by its energy purity, but it's not mid-level either, yet it still manages to attract my Gengar.
Unable to figure it out, the two elderly people simply stopped thinking about it and helped check the condition of Roy's Pokémon.
Of course, it was only Ghost type Pokémon. As for Primeape and Snorunt, they were not in the checklist, but the old woman was very curious as to why this Primeape also had Ghost type aura.
After the old woman finished looking at the Misdreavus, Roy said there was one more Pokémon only be seen outside.
After bringing the two elderly people and Phoebe outside, Roy released the Palossand, which he had captured in the Safari Zone. Its enormous body was even taller than the old people's hut.
"Wow! A huge castle! It's Palossand!"
This was the first time Phoebe had ever seen Palossand Pokémon real life. She had only seen a picture of Palossand in a book in her study before, and that was a Flash Palossand.
Phoebe approached Palossand and gently placed her hand on Palossand mud-covered body.
Palossand knew that this was Roy's relative, so he quietly stayed where he was and let Phoebe touch his body.
After inspecting all the Ghost type Pokémon, the two elders nodded in satisfaction. It was truly worthy of Agatha's Coaching.
The old woman was certain that Roy's future achievements would surpass theirs.
In particular, Lampent was in very good condition, and Roy was specifically instructed to bring Lampent and the Dusk Stone he had given him to Mt. Pyre to complete its final evolution when Lampent Pseudo-Elite Four.
Are you going to complete your final evolution at Mt. Pyre?
Roy didn't understand why, but he believed the two old people wouldn't lie to him.
While Phoebe was playing inside the Palossand's body, the two old people went back into the small house. The old woman sat in a wicker chair, thought for a moment, and then asked the old man:
"Old man, did you sense the Ghost Power emanating from that kid?"
The old man nodded.
"Hmm, that's a bit strange, but judging from how much Gengar likes it, it really is the Ghost Power. He's a promising talent; he's probably the only one in the clan at his age who has achieved this."
"Sigh~ Maybe we should just give that thing to him. When Phoebe grows up, it's really too much for her to guard both the entrance to the Spirit World and those two things all by herself..."
"But he's not a member of the family, are we...?"
The old woman said hesitantly.
"Then let's talk to Roy tonight."
"Um."
By dinnertime, Roy still hadn't seen Cynthia emerge from the study. He had reheated the food again and again; it was practically mush by now.
Roy tiptoed to the outside of the study, pushed open the door, and saw Cynthia diligently studying the ancient book she had just read.
The only thing in the study was a classic kerosene lamp.
Under the dim light, Cynthia's already fair skin was bathed in a warm yellow glow, making her appear exceptionally soft.
A few stray hairs fell beside her cheeks, adding a touch of languid beauty.
Roy remembered that Cynthia had a light for exploration, but now it seems that the other party only used it for the sake of creating an atmosphere.
After a while, Roy coughed lightly, but Cynthia still didn't react. How engrossed must she be?
At this moment, Cynthia was completely immersed in the ancient books and the historical and mythological legends she had never seen before, and was completely unaware of Roy's arrival.
One of them is a myth about the Sinnoh Region, about Arceus and his three little brothers Giratina, Dialga, and Palkia.
Temples dedicated to the legendary Legendary Pokémon Time God and Space God have been set up throughout the Sinnoh Region, but records about Giratina are extremely rare.
I never expected to see this name in such a quaint study, especially in such a long piece of content.
She had no idea that the Ancient Sinnoh books in the study mentioned Giratina, the god of Distortion World from the Hisui Region.
The more she flipped through the pages, the more incredible it seemed. She had never encountered these historical and Mythology before. She wanted to read through all the ancient books and go back to tell her grandmother about them.
Roy quietly entered the study, gently poked Cynthia's shoulder with his finger, and when she didn't react, Roy waved his hand in front of her eyes.
Cynthia then realized that Roy had arrived. She looked up from the ancient book, saw Roy, and gave a faint smile.
"Hurry up and go eat..."
"Wait a little longer, I'll watch for a bit more, just a little while."
"Let's eat. We'll watch it after we finish eating."
Ignoring Cynthia's objections, Roy closed the ancient book and tried to drag Cynthia to dinner.
Seeing that Roy was determined, and with her own stomach Growl in dissatisfaction, Cynthia had no choice but to put down the ancient book.
She knew that she wouldn't have been able to see these ancient books without Roy's help, and she thanked Roy very sincerely:
"Roy, thank you so much for bringing me here. I've benefited greatly from the Mythology content here."
"Mythology? Is this about Mythology?"
Roy looked completely bewildered.
Don't you usually read the books in your study?
Upon hearing Roy's answer, Cynthia looked at Roy suspiciously.
"Me? I don't watch that stuff. What's the point of knowing all that?"
Roy had come to the study to browse the books before, but as someone who had seen the movie, he wasn't interested in the contents at all.
Not to mention, some of the text in the book is just scribbles, completely incomprehensible.
"How can you call it useless? Don't you know that divine Pokémon exist in this world? Understanding Mythology can help us better interact with divine Pokémon."
Hearing Roy's questioning voice, Cynthia frowned, her delicate oval face showing that she disagreed with what Roy had just said.
Her initial intention to go out to eat with Roy vanished, and instead she pressed Roy back into the chair she had just been sitting in.
[Teacher Cynthia's Mini-Class is Now Open!]
Cynthia took out her gold-rimmed glasses from her Spatial Bracelet, but unfortunately, she didn't have the small pointer that Roy had been hoping for.
A little disappointed...
Cynthia begins to educate Roy about the history of the Pokémon World, including how Arceus created the universe with a thousand hands and is the ruler and creator of the entire universe.
