Chapter 30
Ash and Lillie leave for a while since they are going to give some job papers for the trio, who agrees to leave Team Rocket. Then he also asks Adam and Mohn to wipe out some people's memories since they don't want to reveal this to a lot of people. So they manage to wipe out the girls, Cilan, Clemont, Max and some of the people's memories since they are not in a mood of telling them about their status, then they bring the others, including the Champions, to the Sevestar Island. And after that, they enter the castle and those who didn't know about it are shocked.
"You have a castle here? Not only that, an Island as well?" Kristen says in shock as Lillie says, "We are rich. With the wealth of RPA Company, after all."
Then the four staff members of RPA stands besides Ash and Lillie as Ash says, "You see, Alice, Drandon, Felix and Eve here are our students as well as the executives in the RPA, four of the 18 to be precise. And the other 14 are in the RPA as staff members."
"So is it really true that you are the owners of the RPA Company?" Amber asks.
"Why yes." Lillie says. "In fact, I was the one that gives Ash the idea to start a company."
Lusamine is surprised and she says, "So you owned a company behind our backs? Is that what you mean?"
"Yes." Ash says as he nods to Alice and the others, who goes into the castle and then the Champions are confused. "What are they doing?" Lance asks.
"Preparing for lunch." Ash says. "Now if you wonder how we opened the company, you can say it is three years ago when we first step into the Galar Region."
"What? You have gone here three years ago?" Brock says in surprise.
"Yes. Though I didn't know that I was the prince of the Galar Region. But I know that Chairman Rose of the Macro Cosmos is my uncle." Ash says. "And he has been teaching us some of the business skills and at first he helped us with the funds of the company. But after a year our business is a success and we didn't need anymore help."
Delia says, "You said that you have been to Galar...does that mean..."
"I challenged the league? I do." Ash says, "With Lillie's help of course, I won all 18 gym leaders and even Leon, who was said to be undefeatable."
Leon says, "Indeed. Ash here sure is a prodigy, and it is because of them that Galar is really a success."
Goodshow says, "I can tell. They sure are very talented."
Then Alice, Felix, Drandon and Eve all come out with the uniforms and with the food, then they are surprised to see that they are actually the same food from an expensive restaurant. "No way...even though I am a Champion, this restaurant is very hard to be reserved..." Diantha says.
"Indeed." Ash says, "Because we design the food together and it sure is hard to make. Helen is also one of the students that I mentioned, and we had been cooking together for some time."
Kristen says, "So let me get this straight, you and Ash have been having this company for three years? Does that mean you have billions worth of resources under your belt, right?"
Lillie says, "I think so. Since we also expanded our departments into the other 7 regions."
Ruka knows what this is going as she hits her back and says, "You are not going to ask them for money for your projects."
"Okay, I am sorry Mom..." Kristen mutters. Ash asks, "What projects?"
Gladion says, "Kristen has been trying to make a Silvally, but without the resources, we can't 100% sure that it will be a success."
Lillie says, "Oh that, don't worry, there is a lab making it in the Alola Department." This causes everyone to look at them crazy. "But enough of that. I am sure that you want to know about what happened when we are in the Galar Region, right?"
They all nod, except for Leon who already knows what happened. Then they start to talk about their adventures, from their meeting with Zacian and Zamazenta, until defeating Eternatus who was called the Darkest Day. The story has been like watching a movie and a lot of them seems to enjoy it, except for Kristen who is jealous for Lillie to be this close with Ash.
"From what I heard, those Gym Missions sure are hard." Lance says.
"You're right. But I am glad that Dad had given me and Gary some basic trainings so that I managed to surpass them." Ash says. Gary groans at the memory and then he says, "Don't remind me of that..."
Delia turns to Adam, "What training did you give them back then?"
Adam says, "Well, some music playing, contest lessons and basic material training. But I can see that Ash inherited the same interests back then.
Brock says, "But he didn't seem to show those when we were traveling together..."
Ash says, "Dad's disappearance had an influence on me. After he was gone, I didn't feel like doing these until I met Lillie. It is like that she picked those shattered glasses and fixed it by herself."
"I see." Delia says. Then Lusamine turns to Lillie, "Now for the next question I want to ask, I wanted to know what you were doing in Kalos with Ash. You said that you were under the alias of Serena, right?"
Lillie sighs as she nods. Diantha says, "Don't be nervous. From what I have seen, you really are a good actor. I have been acting for years and I couldn't figure out your disguise when we met in Kalos."
"Thank you for the compliment, Diantha." Lillie says. "Well, I tried to take part in the Showcases back in the Kalos Region, that is what I was doing there."
"We all saw it in the news, though it is a shame that you didn't win against the Kalos Queen Aria." Amber says.
"I was injured at that time. My mentor Palermo also wanted me to forfeit back then..." Lillie says.
"Mother did? She must have cared a lot about you..." Delia says. "By the way, even though we already met and talked in my Coronation. But how was she back then? What is her reaction when she found about you two?"
Ash says, "Mom. She was very glad to see us again, but at that time I almost forgot about what happened to Dad and it was because of her that I managed to refresh my memory."
Adam and Delia nod as they decide to continue the story as they are having a good time in the Sevestar Island.
Here is another new chapter, well, this chapter is basically a short chapter of what happened and I hope you like it.
