That afternoon,
After parting ways with Momondo and the others, Li Wei went to Sword of the Vale Castle to see Steven again.
Steven had become hooked on his research and planned to stay in Eindoak Town for a few more days.
Surveying the underground Dragon Vein, along with the White Ruins, Dragonspiral Tower, and Sword of the Vale Castle.
These were all things Steven wanted to investigate thoroughly.
Dragonspiral Tower and the path leading deep beneath Sword of the Vale Castle were both things Steven wanted to figure out.
Thanks to Ash, the recognized Hero of Ideals, and Cynthia, the Hero of Truth,
Steven had obtained permission from Zekrom and Reshiram.
If possible, Steven even wanted to study the Light Stone and the Dark Stone...
When Li Wei and Cynthia appeared at Icirrus Airport, the passengers greeted them with enthusiastic cheers.
As word of the Team Plasma incident continued to spread, compounded by the events in Eindoak Town over the past two days,
Li Wei and Cynthia's prestige in the Unova Region had reached its peak.
So many passengers gathered to watch them that Victini hid from sight.
Meloetta would have done the same in the past, but by now, she had long since grown used to it.
The fans of the Theme Park's girl group were even more enthusiastic.
Fortunately, Li Wei and Cynthia had bought business-class tickets, allowing them to rest briefly in the VIP lounge.
"Look, it's Champion Alder!"
Another buzz swept through the airport.
Knock, knock-
The person knocking was none other than Alder.
Li Wei and Cynthia rose from their seats in the lounge.
"Mr. Alder."
Smiling, Alder motioned for them to sit down.
"Please, sit. I only came to see you off and thank you in person while I was at it."
