Three Visits to Xerneas

By the end of every meeting, people were always haggling while dividing up the benefits. Xia Chen could not be bothered to take part in such things.

After handing the remaining work over to the Donghuang League's representatives stationed in Alola, he prepared to head to Kalos to find Xerneas.

Naturally, Father Xia and Mother Xia would also fly over under the care of a medical team.

After all, Xia Chen had no confidence in asking Xerneas to travel all the way from Kalos to Alola. It was more sincere for him to bring them there himself.

Before leaving Alola, he went to visit two people: Lusamine, who had insisted on seeing him, and Lillie.

The place where Lusamine, once a major figure, was being held was extremely secretive—on a small isolated island between Melemele Island and Aether Paradise.

Still, the environment there was decent, and the League had not treated her too harshly.

When they met again, Lusamine appeared little changed apart from her somewhat poor mental state.

"Thank you for coming to see me."

In the room containing only the two of them, Lusamine said calmly, "You're the only one who can visit me now."

Xia Chen fell silent. He understood what she meant.

Lusamine had spent many years building her influence in Alola, and her connections ran deep. Someone might use a visitation as a pretext to stage a prison break.

After all, in a Pokémon World with extraordinary powers, that possibility was far from zero.

And the reason the Alola League was comfortable letting Xia Chen visit her was simple—

If he wanted to break her out, would he need to use a visit as a pretext?

With Koraidon and Deoxys, no—even just one of them would be enough to charge in and settle the matter.
