Knock! Knock!
"Coming"
After talking with Amaterasu, Itsuki had just finished taking a bath. Itsuki hurriedly wore a T-shirt and his knee-length pant before opening the door.

"Who are you?" Itsuki looked at the man who was wearing a butler uniform. The man was about the same height as Itsuki and looked like he was about 25 years old. The man had short navy blue hair and a birthmark on the left side of his forehead.
The man politely smiled and then bowed his head. "I apologize if I have disturbed you." The man then raised his head and looked at Itsuki. "Lady Drasna wishes to meet you. I wonder when Mr. Kagami will be free for the meeting."
.
'Lady Drasna, isn't she one of the elite four members of the Kalos region. If I remember correctly, she specializes in Dragon-type Pokemon. I wonder what caused Drasna, one of the Kalos regions Elite Four members to have a meeting with me.' Itsuki thought for a moment. "Just give me the location, I will come there after having breakfast. By the way, what is your name?"
"Sir, my name is Robert." After giving the meeting location to Itsuki, Robert took his leave.
.
Itsuki then changed his clothes and wore his blue suit. After that Itsuki went to Serena's room to call her and had breakfast with her. After breakfast, Itsuki briefly separated from Serena as she was going to meet with some of her friends.
.
Itsuki came to the given location. The location was a cafe where Isaac saw an old lady enjoying her drink with a smile on her face.
Seeing her face, Isaac knew who she was. 'Drasna is a member of Kalos' Elite Four. Out of all the Four, she is declared the kindest one.'
Drasna is an old woman, who has dark blue hair with two pigtails. Drasna wears a brown shirt with a yellow sash around her belly and also wears a striped dark red dress with rippled ends. Along with her dress and high-heeled shoes, she wears dragon accessories resembling dragon's teeth, which are connected by green and orange decorations.
.
In the entire Kalos region, Drasna is very popular not because of her strength she was famous because of her kind and gentle personality. Drasna's popularity just didn't end in the Kalos region. Even in foreign regions, Drasna's name is popular among trainers. The people of Kanto loved and highly respected her.
The most surprising thing about Drasna is that she is from Sinnoh, specifically Celestic Town. Drasna came to the Kalos region when she became an adult and got the Kalos region nationality. Over time she managed to earn her place as one of the elite four members. But on one criticized Drasna for her nationality.
.
Ding!
Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Itsuki as soon as he entered the cafe. Many people wanted to ask for Itsuki's autograph but they didn't know that Itsuki was probably here to meet Lady Drasna.
Drasna herself looked at Itsuki with a kind smile. She has to admit Itsuki was very handsome and she wouldn't mind her granddaughter marrying Itsuki. 'It looks like I will have to introduce my granddaughter to Itsuki.'
.
If Itsuki were to know about Drasna's thoughts, then he would just turn around and leave. Itsuki had no plans of getting any finance, at least not this soon. Unlike the people of this world, Itsuki still had that mentality of Earth.
Itsuki walked up to Drasna who sat at the corner. "Good morning, Lady Drasna. I hope I haven't made you wait too long." Itsuki still stood in front of Drasna showing how much respect he was giving her.
.
Drasna noticed this and felt more satisfied with Itsuki's character. Itsuki's simple action told Drasna many things about his character.
Drasna with a smile on her face gestured for Itsuki to sit down. Itsuki nodded his head and sat opposite Lady Drasna. Robert, the butler of Lady Drasna kept the crowd from occupying the table near Itsuki and lady Drasna. Robert didn't want people to hear his lady's conversation.
.
"Good morning, Mr. Kagami."
"Please, you can call me Itsuki like everyone else does." Unknowingly Drasna was testing Itsuki. She purposely addressed Itsuki in a formal way to see how he would react. If Itsuki hadn't said those words and had not reacted, then Drasna would have assumed Itsuki as someone who is arrogant and prideful. Drasna believed that these days youngsters have forgotten to respect their elders. Only a very few young people respected the elders. Itsuki saying these words showed that Itsuki respected her.
.
"Before we start talking let's order something to eat." Saying that Drasna handed the second menu to Itsuki.
"Lady Drasna, I just had breakfast before coming here so I will just go with something light and easy." Drasna nodded and then signaled the waitress to come and take their order.
.
"I would like to have a vegetable sandwich with a latte."
"I want green tea with extra sugar please."
"Oh my, I didn't expect you to be a sugar lover." Drasna looked a little surprised.
Seeing her gaze, Itsuki awkwardly nodded his head. "I just like to have extra sugar when I am drinking tea or coffee."
.
"Itsuki, I have to admit, what you did yesterday really shocked me. I never knew I would live long enough to see technology progress this far. You have no idea what reaction the three other elite members had when they saw the [A1]. Just within one day, you have bought earthshaking changes to the entire planet. Even the most brilliant scientist have to recognize your geniuses." Itsuki felt a little embarrassed. He wondered what reaction the whole world will have if he ever told them that what they think is a genius creation is actually a copy product.
.
"Lady Drasna, surely you didn't come here just to praise me, right? I am sure you have lots of things in your hands." Itsuki was indirectly hinting at Drasna to get straight to the point.
Drasna couldn't help but smile inwardly. 'It looks like Itsuki is really sharp as well.' Drasna really liked Itsuki's character. The more Drasna talked with Itsuki the more she came to like Itsuki and find him the perfect candidate for her granddaughter.
.
"Actually, this question the very question that I am going to ask you now has gotten all of us curious. I and the other three elite members would like to know the reason. I would like you to be honest with me." Drasna now that serious look on her usual kind and smiling face.
Itsuki also became serious and nodded his head. From the beginning, Itsuki has been expecting one of the elite four members to approach him. Or call Itsuki for a meeting. If Itsuki was some ordinary citizen or ordinary trainer then the elite four wouldn't have given much attention. Itsuki was anything but ordinary.
.
"Why did you leave the Kanto region, the same region which is currently the strongest and number 1 powerful region in the whole world. You were a citizen of the strongest region yet you left Kanto and decided to become the citizen of a weak region. We want to know the honest reason." Itsuki knew that he can't feed lies to the elite four. The lies he told in front of millions of people were not going to work for the elite four.
.
"If I am perfectly honest, there were several reasons why I left Kanto. Surely you and the other three elite members must have smelled the corruption within the Kanto Association." Drasna nodded her head in agreement. Unlike the general public, the Elite four were the supreme guardians of their region. The elite four had knowledge of things that the general public had no idea of. Drasna and the other three have heard how Oak has almost taken control of the Kanto Association. No one came forward to speak the truth knowing that they will have to face Kanto's wrath.
.
"Let's just say that I used to work for Oak. Under his teachings, I became the youngest scientist in the world, though this information is not available to the public." Drasna nodded her head. She has heard Itsuki's name even before he became a trainer.
"I found Oak's true face due to a certain incident. I no longer felt safe in Kanto, knowing that there was someone who control almost everything in Kanto from the shadows. I didn't hesitate to move my family to Kalos knowing Kalos was one of the safest regions in the world."
.
"As for why I changed my identity, let's just say that I was not interested in working for a corrupted Organization that will probably fall in the next few years. That's the use of even cleaning a house when the owner of the house has destroyed everything inside the house. The house will probably fall even if I were there to support it." Drasna didn't need to ask who the owner of the house was. All the elite four other regions knew that Oak was the real controller of Kanto.
