So, some things, even if they don't like them, they have to temporarily follow the rules here.
Cynthia quickly gathered her thoughts and once again showed a faint smile.
"Since Captain Kamado has said so, we'll come to find you after our Star Level rises to Three Stars."
"Don't worry, it won't take long."
Kamado nodded.
"Thanks for understanding."
"Next, let Laventon take you to your accommodations, I've already arranged everything for you."
One condition of joining Team Galactic is that you can get accommodation, Kamado wouldn't play any tricks on this point.
Besides, he has a favor to ask of them now.
Ash and Cynthia exchanged a glance, nodded tacitly, and then indicated to Kamado that they would be excusing themselves.
As they walked out of the room, they encountered Cyllene who was standing outside the door.
Cyllene was apparently attracted by the commotion just now.
However, she didn't barge in directly, instead, she always waited outside the door.
Seeing Ash and Cynthia come out, her gaze stopped on Ash for a moment, then she glanced at Kamado inside the room.
There's no need to ask; clearly, the loud noise earlier was likely related to this young man.
"Leader Cyllene."
Cynthia greeted with a smile as if nothing had happened.
Ash also followed up: "Leader Cyllene, we're heading to the accommodations now."
Cyllene was silent for a moment, then nodded.
"Yes, Professor Laventon is already waiting for you downstairs, and he will take you there."
After the two left the Team Galactic Building, sure enough, they saw Professor Laventon waiting at the door.
He seemed unaware of what happened upstairs, but upon seeing Ash and Cynthia come out, he immediately smiled.
"You're out, let's go, I'll take you to the accommodation allocated to new members by Team Galactic."
The night was gradually falling.
Lamp lights in Jubilife Village were lighting up one after another.
The streets, bustling during the day, had now become much quieter.
Even if Ash and Cynthia wanted to go out immediately to take on tasks and quickly raise their Star Level, it's not suitable to act now.
The Hisui Region at night is far more dangerous than during the day.
Led by Professor Laventon, the two quickly arrived at the temporary accommodation arranged for them by Team Galactic.
It was a wooden cabin not considered large.
Inside the house, there was a hall and a room, separated by two sliding doors.
Although the place was simple, it had basically everything needed.
The hall had a box wardrobe, a mirror nearby, and a tea table.
The room contained two small beds.
Outside the house, there was a place to hang clothes.
For Ash, who travels outside all year round, such accommodation was already quite nice.
For Cynthia, who often stays near relics for ten days or half a month during archaeology, this environment wasn't hard to accept.
The only slightly awkward thing was that they had to stay in the same room.
But it's just one room, and since there are two beds, it's not a big issue.
After Professor Laventon briefly explained the use of the accommodation, he left.
He was also quite exhausted today and needed to organize records about Kricketune and Ash's abilities.
Once Professor Laventon left, Ash felt like he finally relaxed and directly sat down beside the tea table.
"So tired, sis..."
While looking around this temporary accommodation, Cynthia casually asked: "Is it because of the burden on your shoulders?"
Clearly, he was only fifteen, yet he had experienced things many peers couldn't even imagine.
Now, having arrived in the Hisui Region a thousand years ago, he still had to shoulder the task left by Arceus - finding Arceus's Stone Tablet and a way to return home.
Feeling weary was also quite natural.
"Nope." Ash waved his hand, "Though these things aren't easy, what makes me feel tired is the people here, their way of speaking is so strange!"
Ash didn't understand workplace language, nor did he understand sarcasm and implied meanings.
But his instincts were very keen.
He could sense that besides the girl who looked like May and the big brother-like Adaman, others spoke in riddles.
It's impossible to guess what they really wanted to convey.
They say one thing.
The true intention is another.
Fortunately, Cynthia was always there to intercept those words.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even have a chance to understand.
Also, because Ash didn't have to say too much, he could serve as an observer, slightly understanding the meanings of Cyllene, Kamado, and others.
If Cynthia weren't by his side, even if Ash could detect that Kamado and others' words had issues, he might be led by their words.
He might even inadvertently reveal his true origins. Ash didn't know what would happen if he disclosed his true origins, but things certainly wouldn't go as smoothly as now.
"Haha, Ash, you have too little experience." Cynthia chuckled lightly, "But you are only fifteen, which is quite normal."
"It's just that you'll eventually go through these things, the adult world is not as simple as you think."
Ash scratched his head, showing an embarrassed expression.
"Sounds troublesome."
"It is indeed troublesome." Cynthia walked to Ash, gently squatted down, reached out to pat his hair, "But for now, you only need to focus on your own dreams."
"No need to consider all those confounding things."
"Let's first find a way to return home. In the Hisui Region, I'm mainly responsible for dealing with people, while you focus on handling Pokemon."
"That's good enough."
Though she spoke about Ash being young, she wasn't much older herself.
At the age of twenty-five, she's in her youth, and calling her a young girl wouldn't be too much.
Yet, as the Sinnoh Champion, she had to understand more, but she didn't have any complaints about this.
Quite the opposite - she felt grateful, grateful... she was fortunate to be the Sinnoh Champion.
If she weren't the Sinnoh Champion and didn't know the ways of diplomacy, then after arriving in the Hisui Region, wouldn't she have become a mere decoration?
Before Garchomp arrived, the only thing she could do was assist Ash in negotiations.
But now, what she could do was a bit more...
However, matters concerning Pokemon and Kings still had to be handled by Ash.
"Hehe, Miss Cynthia doesn't seem that much older than me! Why speak in such an old-fashioned way?"
Following Cynthia's consolation, Ash also eased the fatigue in his heart slightly, and a smile reappeared on his face.
"Really? Does sister look so young?"
"Of course!"
"Hehe, such sweet talk~ But remember to call me sister in the future, and not Miss Cynthia, even privately, to avoid mistakes."
"Got it!"
After slightly relieving Ash's pressure, Cynthia began to sort through the current situation.
To collect all the Stone Tablets as soon as possible, they must quickly elevate their level to Three Stars, and then take that task to suppress the King.
Neither people in the Hisui Region nor themselves can afford to wait!
However... just rising to Three Stars may not be enough.
"... As per usual routines, Three Stars perhaps can only allow entry to the Obsidian Fieldlands, but not elsewhere."
"Because Kamado just said that the King of the Obsidian Fieldlands is only the lowest level King."
"Just facing the King of the Obsidian Fieldlands requires us to upgrade to Three Stars. Against later Kings, we might need Four Stars or even Five Stars."
Cynthia's analysis made Ash overwhelmed; how are there so many twists and turns here! More complex than the modern world!
In the modern world, he only needed to train Pokemon and defeat strong foes, but here the rules are as abundant as stars!! It sounds incredibly troublesome!
"I don't get these, just leave it to Sister Cynthia to handle!"
"Anyway, whenever you need a fighter, call me! I won't hesitate!"
Ash patted his not-so-muscular arm and said to Cynthia.
"Pfft... Then I'll rely on you as my solid backup~"
"No problem!"
