Chapter 113 — Hoopa, One is Enough

It seems that although Unbound Hoopa is the embodiment of Hoopa's negative emotions, it's not completely impossible to communicate with it.

However, its mercy extends only to not killing Lysandre who released it, nothing more.

What Unbound Hoopa wants to do most right now is to first kill Balza, the descendant of Guris.

Then you're next, Sho... oh no, Confined Hoopa!

Then, Unbound Hoopa shifted its gaze from Lysandre back to Balza.

"Everyone run! Its target is me!"

Balza knew he was doomed, and all he could do was buy time for the others from the Valley of Creation.

The moment he finished speaking, Balza called out his other Pokémon Braviary and leaped up, preparing to fly in the opposite direction.

Every second counted!

However, Balza had barely flown ten meters on Braviary's back.

One of Unbound Hoopa's upper left hands raised, its index finger slightly extended.

Whoosh~

To the human eye, only a faint purple beam could be seen shooting from the fingertip of Unbound Hoopa's large hand.

However, Balza's body suddenly tilted in mid-air, falling directly from Braviary's back.

"Thud!" A heavy sound as he crashed hard onto the ground.

"No! Brother Balza!"

Luca screamed, breaking free from Xerosic's grip, and ran crying towards Balza.

Turning over Balza who was lying face-down, the little girl was completely shocked.

His, his heart was pierced through?!

"Was that... a Psybeam? So, so fast..."

Pachira thought with great trepidation.

No wonder even Yveltal was so terrified.

[Where's the other one? Nevermind, I'm tired of searching, I'll just kill everyone here]

Unbound Hoopa's gaze swept over everyone present, making them shiver with fear.

Who it was looking for was, of course, Balza's sister Meayri.

During these years of being sealed, it hadn't just been sleeping, but secretly observing, and knew that besides Balza, Guris had another descendant.

It must find and kill her too!

Moreover, Confined Hoopa was most likely with that person.

"Congratulations on your successful revenge, Hoopa."

However at this moment, Lysandre stepped forward again, bowing to Unbound Hoopa and saying:

"What are your plans now? As the Champion of the Kalos League, I do have some authority and can help you with all my power."

[Hmm?]

Unbound Hoopa raised an eyebrow slightly, observing this human who looked like a Pyroar for a few moments before asking after a brief silence:

[Where are Guris's other heir and that Confined Hoopa?!]

"Hmm?"

Lysandre was startled by these words, and in the next second, based on the intelligence provided by Alain, deduced that Unbound Hoopa must be referring to Balza's sister Meayri.

Lysandre began plotting in his mind, and after pondering for two seconds replied:

"Rest assured, I can help you find them right away, but before that, could you please help us transport Xerneas here? This is very important to us."

[Human! Do you want to die?!]

Unbound Hoopa roared, frightening Team Flare members except for Lysandre and Pachira so much they almost wet themselves.

This presence was too terrifying!

Don't think that just because Lysandre released Unbound Hoopa, he could order it around.

Being grateful was something friendly legendary Pokémon like Celebi, Ho-Oh, and Latias would do.

For Unbound Hoopa, who like Yveltal was hostile towards humans,

Not killing you on sight was already being polite.

You dare to try to bargain?!

"You misunderstand,"

Lysandre secretly swallowed and forced himself to stay calm, explaining:

"It's mainly because we need the power of both Xerneas and Yveltal to fulfill your wishes."

Lysandre's words were completely meant to deceive Unbound Hoopa.

If it discovered any flaws, he would meet the same fate as Balza in the next second.

No!

He might even die more horribly than him.

But he had no way to retreat now.

First trick Unbound Hoopa into bringing Xerneas, then use the ultimate weapon's power to defeat this monster and create a new world - this was Lysandre's current plan.

Unbound Hoopa narrowed its eyes, falling briefly silent.

The Team Flare members felt these few seconds stretch like years, terrified that Unbound Hoopa might obliterate them with a Shadow Ball in the next moment.

Suddenly, Unbound Hoopa raised one of its right hands.

The golden ring on its wrist flew out and fixed itself to the side, suddenly enlarging.

Then, the dimension inside the huge ring began to distort and churn.

Unbound Hoopa reached its large hand in, making a grabbing motion as if fishing for something.

Seconds later, everyone present saw a deer-like Pokémon, being held by its neck in Unbound Hoopa's hand, pulled out with an expression of pain.

"Xerneas!!!"

Lysandre called out the Pokémon's name with wild enthusiasm in his eyes.

Finally, finally, Team Flare's ideal beautiful world was about to be achieved!

However, at this moment Pachira couldn't feel happy.

Indeed, now they had both Xerneas and Yveltal.

But how were they going to deceive this fierce god Unbound Hoopa next?

Unbound Hoopa, as if handling a small cat, twisted Xerneas's neck and slammed it hard onto the ground, asking coldly:

[I brought it! Where is that Confined Hoopa?!]

Lysandre, who had just been in a state of wild joy, suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

He kept thinking about how to deceive this not-so-bright but godlike powerful monster Unbound Hoopa.

Finally, Lysandre gritted his teeth.

Although he didn't want to deploy this trump card unless absolutely necessary.

But now there was no choice, to deal with this demon-like Unbound Hoopa, he had to bring it out.

"Brother!"

[Balza!]

At this moment, Meayri and Confined Hoopa suddenly rushed into everyone's view, kneeling down upon seeing Balza's corpse, their faces turning completely pale as they nearly broke down:

"No... no... brother..."

"Sister Meayri..."

Luca looked at Meayri through tears, then pointed her small hand at Lysandre's group, her little face full of righteous anger as she shouted:

"It was them! They're the ones who killed Brother Balza!"

"To think they'd come back at this moment? Heaven truly helps me!"

Lysandre almost laughed out loud.

And when Unbound Hoopa saw Meayri and Confined Hoopa, it could barely contain its wild joy.

The two uppermost hands of its six raised high, instantly forming a Shadow Ball as large as a village.

"It wants to kill us all!"

Pachira was shocked, cursing inwardly at how quickly Unbound Hoopa turned on them!

[Die! Descendant of Guris! Confined Hoopa!]
