"But... what kind of person is Master exactly…"
Melusine tilted her head slightly, tapping a finger against her crimson lips, a look of deep conflict clouding her face.
"If I have to say… Master is just... Master?"
"...What kind of answer is that?"
Shidou felt like Melusine had just spouted a bunch of nonsense.

In his mind, interrogations had always been the domain of August, Blue, and Sabrina.
And those three — without a doubt — were the most important members of the Kanto branch.
So in Gary’s thinking, being involved in an interrogation = becoming an important member of the Kanto division.

Its staggering, off-kilter movements looked a little silly.
But with its swaying came a strange, rippling energy.
[Teeter Dance].
A chaotic dance that indiscriminately confuses all Pokémon nearby — allies included.
That meant Slaking would be affected as well. 2025-05-03 06:36:41 +0000 UTC View Post
Ariana’s words left the gathered Rocket members completely stunned.

Today, Kikukawa Kyo had decided to stay home. She steeped freeze-dried passion fruit chunks in cold water, added some ice, and just like that, she had a simple passion fruit tea. Since it was made with only freeze-dried fruit, it wasn’t too sweet—just light and refreshing.
Of course, she could have added some honey or syrup for e...
