Cyllene put away the task list and then looked at Ash and Cynthia.
"Since you have completed this task, from now on, you are members of Team Galactic."
"Team Galactic will provide you with accommodation, and you will also receive a fixed salary every month."
"In return, you need to complete at least one commissioned task every month."
At this point, Cyllene's tone became slightly heavier.
"Team Galactic doesn't support freeloaders."
"If you want a stable life in Jubilife Village, you must take on the corresponding responsibilities."
This is also why many people flock to Team Galactic.
In today's chaotic times, a stable residence and a fixed salary are enough to make most people struggle to obtain them.
Cyllene continued, "There are levels within Team Galactic."
"The more commissions you complete and the higher the task evaluations, the more your level will increase."
"High-level members can not only learn how to craft Pokeballs but also various survival tools."
"If you want more resources, work hard to take on tasks and improve your star level."
Ash's eyes lit up.
The method to craft Pokeballs and survival tools?!
While these things might not be rare in modern times, they hold great value in this era.
Moreover, if they want to operate in the Hisui Region, they indeed need some tools that fit the era.
Especially Pokeballs!
Their modern Pokeballs can't be exposed, making those from this era even more necessary!
Cynthia also nodded slightly.
This step of joining Team Galactic was smoothly completed.
Cyllene paused for a moment and then said, "Additionally, Captain Kamado has returned."
"The leader of the Diamond Clan and the leader of the Pearl Clan are also here."
"They are discussing a very important matter right now on the top level."
Cyllene looked at the two.
"You can go up now to report on your joining."
Kamado, the leaders of the Diamond Clan, and the Pearl Clan are upstairs discussing important matters.
Yet Cyllene is sending them up now to report on joining.
The meaning is very clear; whatever important matter it is, it's likely related to the two of them.
Cynthia still had a light smile on her face, but her gaze became more serious.
Ash also sensed the change in the atmosphere, and his previously relaxed expression became somewhat restrained.
"Okay."
Cynthia took Ash's hand.
"Let's go up and take a look."
With that, she pulled Ash out of the office door.
Pikachu lay on Ash's shoulder, its ears twitching slightly.
Ash glanced back at Cyllene's office and then looked up at the stairs leading to the upper level.
The ones they'll meet next should be the three most authoritative figures in the Hisui region. This kind of messy situation bothers him the most.
Better to leave it to Cynthia...
"Garchomp, you wait here for me; it's not good for you to come up." Cynthia turned to Garchomp and instructed.
In terms of appearance, Garchomp is still too imposing, and going up might not make for a friendly atmosphere.
So Cynthia let Garchomp wait here.
Garchomp nodded and then casually found a corner to sit, completely lacking the domineering aura it had when subduing the entire Kricketune group.
...
At this moment, inside the office, the expression on Cyllene's long calm face finally changed.
The expression on her face now can be described as strange.
Coldness mixed with shock, seriousness blended with confusion, four expressions combined on her face, creating an incredibly bizarre look.
The coldness and seriousness were inherent in Cyllene's expression.
The confusion and shock were her true emotions at this moment.
Knowing so many things about Ash and Cynthia, it's impressive that Cyllene managed to keep a serious face while speaking with them.
How Garchomp's aura intimidated everyone, how they could communicate with Pokemon and calm down the frenzied Boss Kricketune.
Even the Mount Pokemon blessed with the Venerable Sinnoh's power treated them warmly...
How did these two grow up?
How could such freaks exist in the world?
Exceptional at training Pokemon, skilled at communicating with Pokemon, and capable of making the legendary Mount Pokemon voluntarily approach them.
Compared to these two, the people in Team Galactic are practically useless!
Moreover, neither Cynthia nor Ash seemed to hold Team Galactic in high regard.
Although Cynthia behaved courteously and respected Team Galactic, joining Team Galactic seemed like just a dispensable step in their plan.
As the experienced leader of Team Galactic in recognizing talent, Cyllene believed she wasn't mistaken in this matter.
Do they look down on Team Galactic?
This contradicts the words they spoke.
Could it be that they initially heard rumors and thought Team Galactic was powerful but discovered through firsthand experience that Team Galactic wasn't as impressive as where they came from, leading their attitude to gradually change?
If that's true, Team Galactic indeed seems to be underestimated by the two of them.
Having established such a scale in the dangerous Hisui region within just two years, Team Galactic is definitely not a weak organization.
But the problem is... Cyllene suddenly fell silent at this thought.
It seems their Team Galactic really doesn't have much leverage over these two people.
