Whitley couldn't help but gulp a mouthful of saliva as she looked at this huge pile of documents in front of her.
She pointed at the documents and spoke somewhat helplessly, "These are what you guys are working on these days?"
Eri and Yutsuki exchanged a glance, and Eri spoke helplessly, "It's just part of the work."
Whitley just felt the corners of his mouth twitch. This is great, this workload is almost half of Elite Four Lucian.
Yutsuki looked at Whitley with some envy and said, "It's still best to follow the professor on his quest."
But of all these people at the Institute, Whitley was the only one who had such a treatment.
Whitley sniffed and the corner of his mouth twitched, thinking back to the rocky beach he had just experienced the day before where he was almost pierced by a rock. Silently shaking her head, she said, ''The field will still be dangerous. And there are actually a lot of places Rope won't take us to."
For example, before Rope entered the cave in Eiichi's village, in like before Rope let them go first when they faced a siege, or when Rope was at the ruins of the village, he himself and Hoopa went down while they could only watch from this side.
Rope, while looking out for her and Diana's safety, is actually really, really not having an adventure. If Rope was going through constant danger, the girls in the back were just go, go, go, and run!
It felt like the top was out for an adventure, more like out for a workout...
Whitley shook his head and took a document off his workbench and read it.
The document was an analysis of the Legendary Pokémon's significance to the Pokémon by looking at some of the Legendary Pokémon's and regular Pokémon's familiars. The foothold is Relicanth and the Sacred Pillar King-Regigigas.
It's not a very distinctive foothold, but there are a lot of ordinary Pokémon that worship Legendary Pokémon. However, there are very few ordinary Pokémon that can really relate to Legendary Pokémon.
Especially when it came to race as a unit.
Whitley rubbed his chin, thinking about the merits of this paper.
"It's handed in by a newcomer, and I feel that the angle is quite original, she describes the relationship between ordinary Pokémon and Legendary Pokémon as one of overlord and follower. These so-called Favored Races are their intermediary linkers."
Eri saw Whitley staring at the paper and opened his mouth to explain where it came from and why he had taken a liking to it.
Whitley nodded and said, "Although I have never met the Sacred Pillar King-Regigigas. but I have heard Rope talk about it, and it seems that He does have so much to do with Relicanth."
"Still, I feel that this research angle, while clear, is somewhat less accurate, and as you can see, she barely gave the next example. Everything else is specious."
Whitley put it mildly. Compared to these two girls fresh out of school, Whitley had been visiting around with Professor Juniper since she was about ten years old. In addition to Rope's words and teachings over these times. She could be said to understand this kind of stuff at a glance.
And it was also true that she was able to say a thing or two.
Eri nodded as well, she was also a senior student of Celadon University, of course she wouldn't not be able to see such a problem.
"The selection itself was based on her ability to pick this angle. Rather than anything else."
Whitley nodded, such an explanation was quite reasonable. Although the Shallow Institute was in its infancy, because of Rope's relationship, the speed and efficiency of producing results was astonishing.
After all, the others were doing archaeology. They were doing interviews. There's a fundamental difference there...
"This is it, your institute's workplace, most of the researchers are over here right now, except for a few that have been dragged out into the field."
Blue's voice came from not too far away. Rope looked at the sight in front of him and nodded with quite a bit of satisfaction. He soon saw the three girls huddled together over there.
Rope smiled and greeted the three of them.
Yutsuki subconsciously grabbed Eri's arm and her face turned red.
And she kept mumbling, "So handsome, so handsome, so handsome..."
Both Eri and Whitley were speechless.
"Come on, young lady Yutsuki, can you be a little more reserved?"
Eri said to Yutsuki somewhat helplessly while greeting Rope as bashfully as possible.
Yutsuki was the cutthroat Onii-chan, her grandfather was the Union's General President Charles Goodshow. arguably the highest status person in the clear.
Though now in the Kanto region, Yutsuki, who was supposed to be Missy, has had her family's power pretty much usurped.
It wasn't Rope or Professor Oak or Daisy who ordered this.
They're on good terms with Chairman Charles Goodshow. And Charles Goodshow sent his granddaughter to Rope's institute. That's a gesture of goodwill in itself.
The main reason was that when the Oak family was expanding, it was inevitable that they would touch the Charles Goodshow family's sphere of influence. And the Charles Goodshow family pretty much retreated without a fight. The situation was ridiculously clear to see.
Because they all know that the Oak family's main purpose is not on the Kanto side, and most of their family has already migrated to the Alola area. Based on the movement of the Oak family, most of the families in the Kanto area are getting anxious.
The Oak family could basically take over the whole of Kanto right now, but their entire family is leaving the area. It's really easy to make very bad associations.
For example, everyone knows that Rope has been making big news lately.
Usually big news like that has to end with a big battle.
So is Kanto a battlefield that's already been arranged in advance?
People are selectively ignoring the fact that Rope has actually been hanging out in the Sinnoh area all these days.
It's like they don't care about Rope's movements at all...
They really don't care about Rope's movements. They only knew that in case they guessed right and this place was going to turn into a battlefield, should they build a wall and stock up on food. Or just run away.
Similarly, Sinnoh's family forces who knew Rope was over here were all in the same boat. They were anxious about whether to run away or make good defenses.
Of course, none of them could have imagined...that the Oak family is the greatest, the one with the highest state of mind!
(Oak family: Get lost! I don't want to!)
"Rope, you're here, the paper over here is quite interesting."
Whitley said as he greeted Rope with a smile.
Rope nodded and walked over towards this side.
Blue rolled her eyes and followed Rope up.
Rope took the paper in Whitley's hand and then looked at it carefully.
"The idea is quite groundbreaking, just that it doesn't quite match our research methods. Wouldn't it be better to just ask Legendary Pillars about this kind of thing?"
And so the corner of Blue's mouth twitched...Motherfucker...is this really the attitude of doing research????
But the three little girls in front of her were nodding as if they deserved it.Blue wondered if she should give her grandfather some heel wax. This research treatment was really too far off.
"Rope, you're here?!"
A surprised voice came from upstairs, Rope looked up obediently and sure enough it was Daisy.
"Long time no see... Daisy..."
Before Rope could finish his sentence, Daisy ran straight down the stairs with quick steps, then jumped into Rope's arms in a flash.
Daisy buried her head in Rope's chest and said sultrily, "I was so worried about you. You haven't contacted me much for so long."
Rope's face and its complexity, Blue was looking on from the side with a straight face, and then the excitement on his face was even greater when he saw Whitley's somewhat odd face.
Rope, this guy, doesn't understand the benefits of being single.
To be single, is to have a thrill beyond imagination while watching the Sea King Shura.
How sour it was before...ah shucks, what do you mean by sour. How much I despised the Sea King's approach before, how much more enjoyable it was now!
What was the meaning of heavenly justice, what was the meaning of retribution. Even if this was his sister's melon that he was eating, he was still very happy eating it ah!
After all, he has long understood his sister. To put it nicely is to support her free development. To put it in a bad way, it's a good word for a damn ghost.
Daisy is all about Rope. But it's just bad timing. It came at a bad time. And according to what they know about Rope. It would be better to expect Rope to betray Cynthia.
It would be better to expect Arceus to betray their world.
Is it possible that Arceus is still abandoning his world? Hahaha!
Blue couldn't help but laugh at his own thoughts.
In fact, Daisy had already realized that she had lost her temper, and of course, Rope's engagement to Cynthia would not be hidden from her family, but Professor Oak had thought about it for a long time, and even discussed it with Blue before deciding that Daisy had to be informed of it, and that Daisy had the right to know about it.
Daisy has the right to know this matter. On the contrary, they have no right to hide it from Daisy.
Daisy was dumbfounded for a long time when she heard this news, and in the end, she only smiled faintly and said, ''Good! This is a good thing! I should be happy for Rope. cynthia is a wonderful, wonderful girl!"
Looking at the smile on Daisy's face, Professor Oak's heart ached inside. Because he was the one who introduced Rope to Cynthia. It had actually started out as a joke.
People weren't thinking of setting these two up. The main reason was that Rope had never found a girlfriend, and Cynthia had never heard of anyone.
Professor Oak and Professor Carolina had the idea of getting to know each other on a whim. In fact, they didn't think it would work out. After all, both Rope and Cynthia didn't seem like the kind of people who would fall for each other after meeting once.
And both would be busy afterward. Without time to meet, where does a relationship begin?
In the end, with the help of Palkia and Dialga, the two of them became a couple.
Professor Carolina was happy, and so was Professor Oak at first. Until they go home and see Daisy...
Daisy had already dragged Rope around to look at some of the equipment and other literature organized in the institute.
The people present all coincidentally left the two of them alone.
There was no one who was right between the two. It was obviously wrong to say that Rope was the Sea King.Rope's first love was Cynthia.
At this moment, at the lake, Diana was sitting by a tree, looking at Sennogi, who was playing with the Milotic's not far away, with undisguised envy in her eyes.
Sennogi's face value was really high, so high that Rope would be lost in thought even if he looked at her at that moment. If Sennogi and Rope were locked up together for a week, it would be hard for Rope to endure it physically even if he didn't want to cheat mentally.
Not to mention Rope. Even Diana, a girl, feels that Sennogi is really beautiful.
And now the scene was the most beautiful girl and the most beautiful Pokémon Diana had ever seen getting together and frolicking. Simply.
"Diana! Come along and play!"
Sennogi had a big smile on her face before greeting Diana.
Diana silently shook her head, then continued to look out under the tree.
Sennogi cocked her head and looked at Diana with some confusion, and after a few moments, she waved at the Milotic's and walked over towards Diana.
"What's wrong? Something bothering you?"
Sennogi looked at Diana with a light smile and a deadly affinity.
Diana actually knew that Sennogi had absolutely no bad intentions towards herself. After all, they were both the same people, Arceus' familiars.
"I was just wondering what happened to the original divine power in me. I asked my mom, dad, and grandparents right after I came back, and they all said they had no recollection of it."
A distressed look appeared on both of Diana. This situation would really be quite hopeless. After all, the grandparents were already old-fashioned in the village. But they hadn't heard of idols or anything like that either.
If it wasn't for the fact that their village did have a strong connection beyond their normal relationship with Eiichi's village, she would really have to wonder if it would just be a coincidence that her village had a legend like that.
"And why does the Origin of Grass do nothing in my body? As you saw before, old grandpa Mizuiro he didn't have the full Dragon Origin, but he got a huge boost in strength."
Diana's face had a troubled and distressed look.
"But the Grass Origin in my body doesn't feel like it's doing anything."
Sennogi had nothing to say after hearing Diana's words. After all, there wasn't much Sennogi could do about such a situation.
But Sennogi actually had his own guess.
"Diana, I also had a deep connection with the Water Origin once before."
Sennogi pondered for a moment and spoke seriously to Diana.
Diana looked into Sennogi's eyes, ready to hear exactly what Sennogi had to say.
"The properties of the Water Origin are actually soothing, healing and slowing down aging."
Sennogi blandly said something that came as a bit of a shock.
Diana looked at Sennogi with some surprise, but didn't feel particularly surprised, after all, Sennogi had spent decades with the Water Origin. It wasn't that Rope was the strongest in all aspects.
Rope was just a human. He wasn't an all-knowing, all-powerful god.
"Did you tell Rope about this?"
"That's what Rope told me."
Diana froze for a moment, then quickly responded.
"Couldn't it have been you who told Rope and then Rope told you?"
Sennogi smiled at that question as well and said, "Does it matter? I don't know how to do that for real history. But if I can of going after history, it's a strange idea in itself."
Diana nodded thoughtfully as well.
"So Diana you don't have to think too much. Although I don't know what the properties of the Origin of Grass are, I think the Origin of Grass in your body is definitely not useless."
Sennogi still spoke to reassure Diana.
Diana also nodded, she also knew that there was no point in thinking about this. In fact, the most crucial issue was not the so-called Origin.
"You actually don't want to rely on Rope anymore, right?"
Sennogi seemed like she could read minds.
Diana looked at Sennogi in amazement, as if she was recognizing her for the first time.
Sennogi laughs softly, then stretches her moving waist and says to Diana, "Rope likes girls who don't have that much on their minds. Like Cynthia Champion, she's actually quite simple, with her head filled with nothing but combat, research, duty and Rope."
"Of course, that's what Rope told me before. It's best if I don't act too smart in front of him."
Diana looked at Sennogi, who made no effort to hide his wit and stature, and was a little lost for a moment.
"But Rope is getting engaged."
Sennogi's face froze for a moment.
"Diana, you're really not as good at talking as you are at zapping."
Sennogi leaned into Diana's wooing like she'd been poked and prodded.
"But I'm not giving up. Rope can't really put me down as long as I'm around...not that I'm that important to him. But he feels guilty about me."
Sennogi said sullenly.
Diana sighed, then cupped Sennogi's face and said seriously, "Sennogi, aren't you smart, this will only make Rope hate you...do I need to remind you of such things?"
Sennogi looked into Diana's eyes. She saw sincerity and compassion.
She subconsciously hugged Diana tightly.
"But what else can I do? Professionally I'm a decades old antique who doesn't know anything and can't help you guys at all. In terms of strength I'm not a trainer, I don't have a single Pokémon around, and Milotic and the others aren't fighting Pokémon."
"What use am I really to Rope?"
That question, in fact, was what Sennogi was really afraid of. Without Rope, where the hell was she supposed to go?
This village had disappeared overnight, and even if there were still those village people scattered around, but after decades had passed, what kind of people would remember her?
She wasn't relying on Rope, but other than Rope, she really didn't know who to rely on. She liked Rope, but she wished more than anything that she was awesome to Rope.
Diana stroked Sennogi's long aqua-blue hair, then said reassuringly, "It's not too late, you'll learn, you're so smart you'll be useful."
So in the breeze of the lake, the two girls inexplicably became close friends who relied on each other.
And the culprit of all this, Rope, at the moment still does not know anything.
