Latios's "Conspiracy"

After dividing up the spoils, Lu Ze finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that today's matters were over, they would have nothing to do until the World Youth Championship began.

Diancie's matter had been settled. They had found Xerneas, and everything had gone very smoothly.

Although Diancie still could not fully control her power as a Legendary Pokémon, she was much better than before.

Likewise, after their wager with Seymour from Great Britain Island ended, the spoils they had won had all been distributed.

All that remained was to wait for the World Youth Championship to begin.

There were around ten days left. During that time, they should train hard.

They had to strive for a good result in the World Youth Championship.

That way, when it was time to return home, they would not have to swim back.

Although Zhuge Ziyu certainly would not make them swim home, it was still a goal they could set for themselves.

While Lu Ze and the others happily divided the spoils, Seymour and the others were considerably more miserable.

Not only had they failed to obtain the Flame Gem, they had even lost the Frozen Gem.

After returning, Seymour and his two friends who had also lost did not dare make a fuss about it.

However, paper could not contain fire forever. The disappearance of Montanelli's Fire Emblem was eventually discovered.

Under questioning from his family, Montanelli finally told them what had happened.

But after learning that Montanelli had lost it in a wager, there was nothing they could do.

After all, wagers were very common in the Pokémon world.

If they went looking for trouble because someone had lost a wager, that would be truly disgraceful for a family like theirs.

Still, swallowing this insult was clearly not their style.
