12. The Sevestar Prince Darker Version

Chapter 7

When the group arrives at Silkan City, it is just a normal city with a lot of people and Pokemon passing by, but in the middle of the city, there is a giant building in front of them. Ash says, "This is the famous RPA Company. In this region, RPA is the biggest conglomerate in this region. All the brands from other regions need to have a deal with us before selling their products here. We also have a lot of services."

"So how much money do you earn with the enterprise?" Steven decides to ask.

"I am not sure, maybe millions or more." Ash says, "We usually give a lot of payment to our employees, after all, RPA stands for Royal Pokemon Association."

A lot of people hear the prince and they have greed in their eyes, especially Iris, May, Dawn, and Trip. Lillie and Bonnie notice them and they can only show their face with disgust.

"Now this is not just an ordinary department store in Lilycove or the one in Unova Route 9. However, we also have a membership card for the department store. And newcomers will only get 2 stickers." Ash says as he gives the others each a membership card, with only access to the first floor and the top floor.

"There are a total of 11 floors. You can only access to the first floor and the top floor. If you want to access the other floors, you will have to collect the stickers."

"And where can we get the stickers?" Nemona asks.

"They are scattered around the region, you'll have to find them yourselves. Now we'll give you access to the top floor since that's where the Library is at. The library also serves as our Normal Type Gym, that's why it is why you'll be given the sticker immediately after you bring the card." Ash says as they all head into the elevator and head to the top floor, where the library is at.

"So how strong is Nate?" Selene asks, and Ash says, "He is usually the first choice for the beginners, however, he can also be strong if you have more than 1 badge."

After getting out of the elevator, everyone is surprised to see how many books there are on the shelf. Nate is sitting at the counter typing on his computer, he notices Ash and the others and he says, "Ah, Champion Red, Princess Aurora. Welcome."

"Hello, Nate. Are you ready for the test?" Ash asks.

"Of course, but just let me finish some words." Nate says as he continues to type on his computer. Cynthia asks, "Are you perhaps writing a new novel?"

"Exactly." Nate says. "The truth is, I got paid by a customer to make a story. He gave me a full summary, all I need to do is to expand it into a novel."

"What kind of story are you writing?" Brandon asks. "Can you tell us the full summary?"

"If I tell you right now, it won't be fun to read anymore." Nate stands up and says, "But since you're here, I might as well stop writing and have the battles that you wanted. So who is going to battle me?"

"That will be me." Leaf stands in front of him and says, "I'm Leaf Green from Viridian City, I was chosen by our Champion Adam to battle you."

"It will be my pleasure." Nate says as he walks towards a bookshelf, by putting a book into the shelf, the shelves are moving and a giant field appears, with glass walls rising from the ground and covering the field.

"Does your gym really need to make such a big deal?" Dawn asks.

"Those glasses are made with David's help. We're in a library after all, so some people who are reading need silence. That's why with the walls, we won't be disturbing the other people who want to read."

"That sounds amazing if you ask me." Lyra says.

As Nate and Leaf have their battle, the traitors decide to look into Nate's computer, hoping to find something useful for them. They manage to find the paragraph that Nate is writing.
