A few blocks away
Ace appeared and stretched his arms, yawning. He took off the cloak and put it away as there was a gasp. Ace paused and looked over seeing a few teenagers looking at him. They ran over and surrounded him, "Wow! Mister! You were so cool! Is that a new movie?! When is it coming out!?"
Ace was overwhelmed and scratched his cheek with an embarrassed smile, "I… I'm not allowed to talk about it… Sorry." unexpectedly the boys and girls looked at each other and nodded, "That makes sense."
Ace looked at them with a smile and winked, "Besides, you don't want to ruin the mystery, right?" they froze and wiped their foreheads, "Yeah! Phew!" Ace chuckled and smiled, "But! I'm not stingy with my fans." he pulled out several black cloaks, giving them to the teenagers.
They gasped and hugged the cloaks happily, smiling at him.
After signing some autographs, the teenagers left while wearing cloaks, "Ahahaha! In the end, you were just that!" one of them even held his face exaggeratedly, like a real villain!
Ace watched them go with a smile, turning around to leave when he got a call. Is Rotom Phone floated up and answered for him, showing Elesa's face! Ace was startled, what does this crazy woman want?
Elesa clapped her hands, "That was amazing, Darling!" as she glued her face to the screen, looking at his bare upperbody up and down like a pervert! Ace could hear smacking lips… He coughed and rolled his eyes, "What do you want?"
Elesa leaned back and looked at him, giggling, "So cold, I might be frozen solid~" Ace rolled his eyes again and Elesa tilted her head, asking "By the way, I didn't know you were going to be in a movie?"
Ace coughed and walked on the street, explaining, "Well, I wasn't…" he explained all the details and Elesa's smiling face changed to extremely cold, "What." Ace shrugged and Elesa frowned, "Who does this bitch think she is?! Want to embarrass my darling, did she ask me?!" she sneered and Ace waved his hand, "Forget it…"
Elesa glared at him, making him swallow his saliva, she turned back and took out another phone, texting on it, "You're too kind. These kinds of people should be whipped in public! After all, going after my darling is like going after me! Hahaha! The last one who came after me… She's working on a farm now!"
Ace's scalp was numb and he persuaded, "Okay, okay, calm down…" he paused before muttering something. Elesa paused and looked at him, curling her lips, "What did you say~?" Ace mumbled and Elesa felt refreshed, "Louder pleasee~"
Ace blushed and said, "I love you!" Elesa let out a breath of satisfaction and tossed her phone away, smiling at the phone and giggling, "Oh yeah~? How much?" Ace blushed and looked around before muttering, "Million." Elesa giggled happily and kissed the phone, "Mwah~! I'll come visit you soon!"
Ace blinked and tilted his head, "Huh? Don't you have a show?" Elesa pursed her lips, "How did you know?" Ace froze and coughed, "What?! Oh Okay! I gotta go! Ok, bye!" Elesa laughed happily and said "Love you~" as Ace hung up.
He grabbed the Rotom Phone, "Okay, next time she calls don't answer! Send her to Voicemail… No, better yet, tell her I fell off a cliff!" Rotom giggled and nodded as Ace put him back in his pocket.
Immediately after this, he heard a laugh, "Ah~ Young Love~" Ace froze and turned mechanically, seeing Sycamore drinking coffee at a shop, sitting on the terrasse. Sycamore smiled at him, waving over, "Come sit!"
Ace put on a t-shirt and walked over, sitting down, "Today is really unlucky…" Sycamore chuckled and turned to the waitress, "Mademoiselle~ Coffee for my friend here." he turned to Ace, who said sullenly, "Double Espresso, no sugar."
Sycamore looked at the waitress, who nodded, walking away.
Sycamore looked at Ace and smiled, "How have you been? We didn't get the chance to chat last time." Ace leaned back in the chair, "Not too bad, same old." Mareep jumped to his lap and Noivern crawled on the table.
Sycamore scratched Noivern's ears happily, nodding, "This Size Device is really extraordinary. After it's normalized, I believe it will be quite the hit! Ah… Who doesn't want their lovable companions to be with them all the time?" Ace smiled slightly and pet Mareep as she laid there like a puddle, full of enjoyment.
Ace looked at Sycamore and smiled, "Actually, before we came here, we went to a Ruin in Mt Coronet…" Sycamore looked extremely interested, "Really?!" Ace smiled and nodded, "Some of Sinnoh's ancient History… Well, Cynthia's Grandmother has all the information. Nothing about Mega Evolution."
Sycamore's eyes brightened slightly, "Miss Carolina? I can't wait." Ace nodded and waved, "There's even a possibility of Ancient Pokemon variants coming back." Sycamore froze and stared at him in shock, "What!?"
Ace nodded and explained the situation as Sycamore listened carefully, gasping or sighing in wonder. He looked at Ace and laughed, "Really! I didn't see the wrong person, Ace! You can read those Ancient Runes, it's really extraordinary! C'est Magnifique!"
He leaned forward and continued, "Actually, there's many texts that have these Runes in my lab…" Cynthia suddenly appeared with a smile, "Are you trying to kidnap my precious Sinnoh trainer, Professor Sycamore?" Sycamore looked over and laughed, "I was found out~" Ace looked at Cynthia, Byron, and Bruno with a smile, "Finally! You know, Lumiose is so big, I thought you got lost."
Cynthia shook her head and sat down, Byron and Bruno sat down as well as Byron rolled his eyes, "It wasn't difficult to find you. We just followed a group of kids in cloaks…" Bruno gave Ace a thumbs up, "Hey, great battle!"
He paused before grinning, "Though, I'd rather head on…" Ace rolled his eyes and pointed out, "Then she would've won. The problem is that with Psychic Type Pokemon, there's almost no counter to their telekinesis other than using Ghost pokemon or locking them down like I did."
He stroked Mareep and sneered, "Besides, without Teleport tactics, she's not strong at all." Bruno's lips twitched and Byron chuckled as Cynthia smiled strangely.
They all thought 'No, it's you that's too strong, right?'
