Late at night
Roy lay in his coffin, just wondering how much Popularity Points he had, when he turned his head and found a Gengar staring at him.
It's the old woman's Gengar.
"Ghost."
Why did they send him to the summit of Mt. Pyre at this time?
Although he didn't understand, Roy followed Gengar to a place resembling an Altar next to the top of Mt. Pyre.
Two hunched figures were already waiting for him.
"You've arrived?"
Seeing that the two elderly people were still awake so late, Roy asked in confusion:
"Why aren't you sleeping so late, old man? You're staying up all night too. Be careful you don't lose your last two teeth too!"
The old man was speechless and looked at the old woman.
"Roy, my husband and I are hoping you can do us a favor."
Hearing the old woman's solemn tone, Roy also shook off his drowsiness, while still harboring some doubts:
"Help? We're all family, why are you talking about helping each other?"
Seeing that Roy didn't seem to care, the old woman nodded, produced a small wooden box, and handed it to Roy. Roy tried to pry it open but couldn't.
He didn't understand what the two elderly people wanted to do.
The old man gestured to Roy that he could use his Ghost Power to open the wooden box. Roy obeyed and used his Ghost Power to penetrate deep into the wooden box. With a "click," the wooden box was opened.
The two elderly people breathed a sigh of relief the moment the wooden box was opened; it seemed that the energy in Roy's hand was indeed the Ghost Power.
Inside the wooden box lay two precious beads, one red and one blue.
This is!

Two precious pearls?
Just as he had expected, the two precious pearls were in the hands of the two old men.
Roy was surprised, but he remained outwardly calm.
"This is?"
"These are the orbs needed to summon two ancient divine Legendary Pokémon, and they have been guarded by our Mt. Pyre Clan for generations."
Roy certainly knew that these two orbs could awaken Groudon and Kyogre, but surely the other party couldn't just show them to him like that, could they?
Seeing Roy's questioning look, the old man explained:
"Roy, we hope you can help take care of these two jewels. Phoebe is still young and her mind isn't mature enough yet. We also have something else to do, so..."
Before the old man could continue, the old woman interrupted him. Realizing he had said too much, the old man fell silent.
Something to do?
What's up?
No matter how much Roy asked, the two old people wouldn't tell Roy what it was about.
Seeing that the two elderly people were unwilling to talk about it, Roy did not press them further. Looking at the two precious pearls in the wooden box, he readily agreed.
"I see."
Hearing Roy's agreement, the two elders breathed a sigh of relief, as this would reduce Phoebe's responsibility for guarding the two precious pearls and the entrance to the Spirit World by half.
With Roy's talent, he will inevitably surpass them in the future. Moreover, Roy has a teacher like Agatha, and most importantly, they trust Roy.
Roy put the box into his Spatial Bracelet. Unbeknownst to him, the moment the Red Orb entered the Spatial Bracelet, the Golurk's Mega Stone was attracted to the Red Orb inside the wooden box.
A stream of red energy flowed from the Red Orb inside the wooden box into the Mega Stone, adding an "Ω" symbol to Golurk's Mega Stone.
The next day, Roy woke up from his sleep and the first thing he saw was Phoebe's Gengar. Seeing that the Gengar was about to lick him, Roy nimbly rolled over and dodged it. The Gengar, which missed the lick, looked disappointed.
When Roy came outside, he found Phoebe and Snorunt playing on the sand slide that they had made on Sand Palossand.
After sliding down the city wall, Phoebe entered through the gate of the Palossand continued sliding down its walls. Her face turned bright red, showing how happy Phoebe was.
Phoebe found Roy's captured Pokémon quite interesting; Roy's Drakloak could even carry her, who wasn't very big, as they flew over the entire Mt. Pyre.
Suddenly, Pokémon wearing a hat shaped like a magician floated over to Roy's side.
It is the evolved form of Misdreavus, Mismagius.
This Mismagius is also Phoebe's Pokémon, but it was caught after Roy left, so it's normal that Roy doesn't recognize it.
The Mismagius came to Roy's side and, after smelling the pleasant scent emanating from Roy, was unwilling to leave.
This affectionate behavior was so annoying that even the Misdreavus couldn't stand it anymore. She was already annoyed by Snorunt, that little green tea bitch, and now that another one had appeared, it was even more annoying than before.
The Misdreavus pushed the Mismagius away, preventing it from getting close to Roy. But how could the Mismagius, having just caught a whiff of Roy's pleasant scent, possibly give up? The Mismagius and the Misdreavus locked eyes.
"Dream!"
"Dream!"
