"Your truth... what is it?"
Damian raised an eyebrow when he heard this question. Because of the telepathy and the word "truth," he easily guessed who was speaking.
Wasn't this the Reshiram with two tails?
It seemed that coming to Icirrus City was a good idea. Reshiram was already trying to contact him.
However, the voice stopped speaking after that one sentence. Damian did not know what was happening.
Damian smiled slightly as he watched Hilda run away into the distance.
Normally, if Damian were not here, Reshiram would probably look for Hilda, right?
After the battle with the Shadow Triad, it was clear that Hilda was already as strong as a member of the Elite Four.
Also, she was a rookie who had only started her journey this year. She reached this level of strength in only half a year. This showed she had amazing talent.
But it was a pity.
"Kyogre, a telepathic link just connected to me. Did you notice it?"
"I felt something. What's wrong, Damian? What did the one who linked to you want?"
Kyogre asked Damian using its deep telepathic voice.
The local Pokémon were very rude. Did they not know that Damian was the trainer of Kyogre?
If that rude Pokémon was looking for trouble, Kyogre would make them use "Water Spout" in front of Damian!
"Don't be nervous. It's not a bad thing," Damian said. He could hear that Kyogre was annoyed.
"Can you sense the source of this telepathy?"
Damian asked Kyogre. Since Reshiram had found him, he wanted to respond.
Damian was only interested in "Truth," not "Ideals."
Damian did not have any grand or noble ideals. N had extreme ideals, but N truly wanted to change the world with a sincere heart.
You could say N's ideals were wrong, but they were still big and pure.
Damian did not want to fight N for Zekrom.
This was because Damian wanted to put the Team Rocket flag over the entire world and other parallel worlds. This was an ambition, not an ideal.
It was difficult to call that an "ideal."
But "Truth" was different.
"I can't sense it," the "Kyogre answered honestly.
"Fine then," Damian said. He was not disappointed. It was hard to find someone's location through telepathy.
It did not matter. He would go to Dragonspiral Tower tomorrow. Reshiram was probably there.
Damian walked with Caitlin and Elesa toward the center of Icirrus City. He took the three members of the Shadow Triad to the police station.
Officer Jenny almost gave Damian a special award banner, but Damian said no politely.
Since it was summer, Icirrus City was full of green plants. It did not look like the "city covered in silver ice" from winter photos online, but it was still very beautiful.
The three of them went to their hotel. Then they prepared to find a place for dinner.
Hilda contacted Elesa. They both had each other's contact information. Hilda had returned the Larvesta to its owner. She was coming back to Icirrus City with her friend.
Damian agreed, so Elesa told Hilda the name of the restaurant.
Damian was surprised when Hilda arrived with her friend.
The friend had famous twin buns in her hair. She wore a tight blue and white shirt with long sleeves. She also wore black leggings and yellow short pants.
She was a bright and pretty girl. She was Rosa, the female protagonist from Black and White 2!
Damian felt like he had seen this before as Hilda and Rosa walked toward them. It was a meeting between two main characters.
But Rosa looked very tired.
"Hello, hello! Sorry, are we late?"
Hilda put her hands together to apologize. There was already a lot of food on the table.
"Not at all. The food just arrived. You're just in time," Damian smiled. "Sit down first. You two must be hungry."
"Then we'll join you," Hilda said as she sat down. She pulled the sleepy Rosa with her.
"I don't think we've introduced ourselves yet. I'm Hilda from Nuvema Town. I just started my journey this year."
Hilda was a very friendly person.
"I'm Rosa from Aspertia City. I'm also a trainer who just started her journey this year. Hello to everyone," Rosa said quickly after she woke up a little.
"Hello. I'm Damian from Kanto. This is my good friend, Caitlin," Damian answered with a smile.
"Damian, you're so handsome," Rosa said.
She patted her face to wake up. She looked at Damian with a lost look.
She liked good-looking people and was very bold.
"Thank you. You're very cute too, Rosa."
Damian smiled. He knew he looked good, but people rarely called him handsome the first time they met.
"Chuckle~ lots of people say that!"
Rosa laughed and stuck out her tongue. She was very cute.
Hilda rolled her eyes but said nothing. Her friend was very popular.
Hilda was as pretty as Rosa. However, Rosa's twin buns and black leggings made her look very stylish.
Also, Rosa's body was more developed than Hilda's. Her chest was even larger than the buns on her head.
Caitlin looked at Rosa's chest and then at her own. Her expression changed.
"Rosa, did you not sleep well last night? You have quite heavy dark circles under your eyes," Damian asked because he was curious.
"Ah... it wasn't just last night. I haven't slept well for the past two days."
Rosa dropped her shoulders. She cared about her looks, so she was sad that Damian saw her dark circles.
"Do you mind telling me why?" Damian asked.
"Emm... Hilda, you tell them."
Rosa did not know how to explain, so she asked her friend for help.
"It's like this. For the past two days, a mysterious voice has been appearing in our minds," Hilda said.
"A mysterious voice?" Elesa asked while she was eating.
"Yes, it's really creepy!" Rosa said as she rubbed her face.
"Sometimes it appears for half an hour or an hour. It just suddenly starts in our heads. It's terrible!"
Rosa was being tortured by this voice. She could not take it anymore.
"I can't even focus on battles. It says a sentence every now and then."
"It happens during the day and it is worse at night. I even hear it in my dreams. I can't rest."
"If I find it, I will not let it go! Ahhhh!"
Rosa complained because she was very angry.
"Could it be a prank by a Ghost-type Pokémon?" Caitlin asked.
"No, I think it is the telepathy of a mysterious Pokémon. This voice started more than two days ago."
Hilda shook her head. She was sure about this.
"About half a month ago, the voice appeared. I was in Nimbasa City and Rosa was in Mistralton City. But we heard the same voice."
This was more than just a ghost story.
Caitlin and Elesa started to think. If it were a ghost, it would be a prank by a Ghost-type Pokémon.
Ghost-types liked to do things like that. But the situation for Rosa and Hilda was different.
"Did that voice say anything to you?" Elesa asked.
"Truth... Young lady, what is your truth? Tell me your... truth..."
Rosa made her voice low to copy the sound perfectly. Damian's face looked strange.
"That's exactly how it is. It never stops. When I try to answer, it goes silent. I really can't stand it!"
Rosa leaned back. She had no energy left.
"I only slept for three hours last night, wahhh! The noise kept me awake."
Suddenly, at that moment.
Truth... your truth... tell me...
The quiet and empty voice sounded inside Damian's heart. It was in his mind again.
Damian started thinking deeply because...
"It's starting again! It's starting again! I'm begging you, please stop harassing me!" Rosa screamed.
Hilda also looked like she was in pain. She heard the voice too.
Wait... so this is a broadcast to everyone?
Damian thought about this. What did the Reshiram mean?
"Then, why did you two come to Icirrus City?" Elesa asked. She could not hear the voice.
"Actually, there wasn't a specific reason. I don't know how to describe it. It felt like someone was leading us. Both Rosa and I came here."
Hilda shook her head. She only realized Rosa was here too after they talked in Icirrus City.
"Perhaps it's because the owner of that voice is near Icirrus City."
Hilda sighed. She was also tired of the voice, but she was stronger than Rosa.
Hilda had a guess, but she was not sure. Also, she did not know what her "truth" was.
Damian thought this was a difficult situation. The dragon was sending "harassment messages" and leading Hilda and Rosa to the city.
Is this Reshiram... really proper?
There were already three people who might be the Hero of Truth. Damian wondered how many other people Reshiram had contacted.
Was the Reshiram planning to hold a talent show??
