Chapter 1011: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes_2

However, at the moment, Nastina might be too busy to pay attention to Fang Yuan.

After Satoru left, Nastina's gaze remained fixed in one direction, never wavering.

And the gaze of Miss Caitlin, the Unova Super Power King, in that direction, was also fixed on Nastina, never shifting away.

Bang...

It was as if there was lightning clashing in the air.

"Bwoo..." The Eevee on Fang Yuan's shoulder flashed a sly expression, egging Fang Yuan on.

And Fang Yuan immediately had an epiphany, indicating he understood.

Fang Yuan, "Stop glaring..."

"If you want to communicate, just go over there."

After speaking, Fang Yuan started to encourage Nastina to chat with Caitlin.

He was totally unaware that this action would cause the other psychics on the cruise ship to twitch at the corners of their mouths rapidly. Wasn't this a situation waiting to explode?

The cruise ship isn't important anymore?

"She is Caitlin," Fang Yuan said.

When Fang Yuan investigated the powerful Trainers in this world, he paid special attention to Caitlin. According to a comprehensive analysis, she should be the strongest of the Four Heavenly Kings according to rumors. It was just unclear how strong she really was when it actually came to a battle.

If all of Caitlin's Pokemon were at the normal King level, then adding her strong superpower, it was indeed possible that her strength could rival that of a Champion.

One thing was for certain, Caitlin, who was already one of the Four Heavenly Kings, definitely took Pokemon battling more seriously than Nastina did.

"Just go if you're going to go."

Nastina pursed her lips, always feeling that Fang Yuan was expecting something... surely there must be something...

But Nastina, like Caitlin, could be said to have a kindred spirit among powerful psychics. She indeed wanted to exchange thoughts with Caitlin.

She felt that this person was very similar to herself.

The next second, Nastina Teleported and appeared next to Caitlin.

At that moment, the cruise ship fell silent once more.

And Fang Yuan smiled slightly, no longer concerned about what would happen next.

It was his test for Nastina, after all.

If Nastina could successfully befriend Caitlin, it would save him a lot of trouble.

If she couldn't, it wouldn't be too late for him to step in as her mentor.

"First, let's find something to eat and drink," Fang Yuan turned and said.

"Bwoo! (｡◕ˇ∀ˇ◕)" Eevee perked up; it wanted to drink Moo Moo Milk! Spirit Soda!

"Sure, let's mooch a meal and drink, then we slip away. We leave Nastina to train by herself here while we head to the island and wait for her," Fang Yuan thought wickedly.

Always following him around, it would be difficult for Nastina to make friends.

......

Fang Yuan's practice of leaving Nastina to hopefully make some psychic friends was very much like the trick he had used when he entrusted Darkrai to Celebi's care.

And at this moment.

On Caitlin's side.

Seeing Nastina Teleport right in front of her, the lady immediately covered her mouth with the back of her hand, starting off with a somewhat arrogant demeanor, "Who are you, impolite person? Don't you know that showing off your power so casually is rude?"

Nastina flicked her hair and smiled slightly, saying, "But I've heard that someone's superpower once went out of control and caused a great deal of trouble. Isn't that an even ruder behavior?"

"Pfft..." Nastina had just finished speaking when Fang Yuan, unable to hold back his laughter, clutched his stomach in pain.

No more, no more, I've got to slip away quickly.

Let Satoru and Caitlin's butler deal with the headache here.

Nastina's words left Caitlin expressionless.

It was not so much that the lady was expressionless as much as she was struggling to maintain control.

Emotion was one major factor that could trigger an outburst of her superpower; she had to learn to control her own emotions.

The more such moments arose... the calmer she needed to be.

"The lady has indeed grown up..." Next to her, Butler Shi Lan wiped sweat from his brow helplessly watching Nastina's approach. This Nastina wasn't as cold and ruthless as the rumors suggested. Instead, she seemed rather scheming, and he almost thought the lady's superpower was about to run rampant again.

The next second, Nastina and Caitlin's gazes met once more, both full of rivalry.

Though unspoken, both of them wished to prove that they were stronger in terms of superpowers than the other.

"How about we see who is better?" the two said in unison at last.

"Wait... wait a moment..." Butler Shi Lan promptly interjected.

"Um, Miss Caitlin and Miss Nastina, are you planning to compete with your superpowers? I think... why not compete to see who can break the seal on the relics first?" Shi Lan suggested, sweating.

Better not to have a confrontation if it can be avoided.

"Shi Lan—" Caitlin was dissatisfied with Shi Lan's interruption.

However, after some thought, she indeed found it to be the best way forward.

"Hmph, Nastina, right? What do you think of Shi Lan's suggestion?" Caitlin looked at Nastina.

"No matter what, I will win," Nastina said confidently.

"Is that so? But you didn't even notice that the person who came with you has run away," Caitlin said with a light smile.

"Huh?" Nastina frowned, not understanding what Caitlin meant.

A moment later, Nastina stood frozen in place.

She was in despair when she realized that she had lost Fang Yuan; there was no trace of him on the vast cruise ship.

Nastina: ???

......

Meanwhile, on the fog-enshrouded Base Island.

A figure rapidly crossed the seal and entered the interior of the island.

After packing some food from the cruise ship, Fang Yuan and Eevee immediately Teleported out of the cruise ship.

Then, they went ahead first back into the so-called Supernatural Relics, planning to quietly enjoy the show from behind the scenes.
