Chapter 125

"You seem happy," Aizen commented when he sensed the cheerfulness of his Machoke, and the way the Pokémon shied its eyes away, intrigued him a lot. "Heh... did something good happen?" He teasingly asked, and the Fighting Pokemon glanced in the direction of a Machamp, a female one, who was busy with her morning exercises.

The Prince laughed inwardly and did not tease his Pokémon more.

"Do you want to stay here for a few more days?"

"Machoke?"

"Yes, we are leaving today." He smiled when he watched his Pokémon shake his head, telling them that he wanted to go with him. "Alright. Say your goodbyes and meet me at the gate. Tell them you will visit them again when we come to the city in the future."

"Machoke." The bipedal humanoid Pokémon nodded his head and went straight to the female Machamp to inform her that he was leaving.

Aizen chuckled when he saw them both hug and start talking. He then turned to look towards Sabrina, who was standing with her Machamp, listening to Terri speak to her about something.

A few minutes later, Sabrina and his Machoke joined him at the gate, and after he recalled his Pokémon, they left for the train station.

The train network of Saffron City connected it to both Cerulean City and Celadon City.

Misty and Daisy were going their separate ways now, heading to their home so that they could prepare to leave for the Blanc Island as soon as possible.

As for Aizen, Sabrina, Leaf, and Anira, they were going to Celadon City, the most populous City in Kanto and the 8th most populous City in the world. It was also called the City of Rainbow Dreams, due to the diversity of cultures, natural beauty, and architecture. And it was also the city in Kanto with the most skyscrapers.

Misty really wanted to come with them, but she was not too sad about it. She had visited Celadon City a lot of times with her sisters, and she gave them pointers on where to buy the best perfumes in the world.

After saying their goodbyes to the Waterflower Sisters, the four of them boarded their train from Platform 9, and exactly one hour later, they arrived at their destination.

Leaf and Anira were quite excited to see the place, but their excitement died down when they saw bodies and bodies of people swarming the streets.

There were just too many people here, and it was very noisy as well.

This place was definitely not for people who liked peace and quiet.

However, when they finally entered Perfume Street, which was a High-End Street, their smiles returned.

There were not many people here, and they could finally explore things in peace and at their own pace.

The girls visited one store after the other, testing their perfumes, and they purchased whatever they took a liking to, not even glancing at the prices.

Their behaviour soon attracted some unwanted attention to Aizen, where girls started believing that he was some very rich guy, and the bold ones even approached him, not masking their intentions of giving him their bodies for him to become their Sugar Daddy.

Money was one thing, but being handsome as well as a deadly charm, and seeing what was happening, Anira's Psychic Focus started getting agitated.

"Get lost." She unkindly whispered when a girl approached him and grabbed his arm, and since she used her Psychic Powers, the poor girl started trembling all over before she scurried away to save her life.

Sabrina curiously observed her behaviour, and then his little Princess decided to teach her future sister-wife that this was exactly what she was supposed to do if some bad and dirty girls approached him.

The Moonheart seriously listened to her words, and Aizen sighed in heart, quite sure that his life was going to become more interesting than it already was.

Eventually, he too joined them in buying some perfumes, and he found the ones he was looking for at Erika's Perfumery, which surprisingly belonged to the Gym Leader of Celadon Gym, who was the daughter of the Guardian of the City.

"Thank you." Sabrina indifferently thanked him when he gifted her a Perfume that he felt suited her the most, but then as if she remembered something, she stepped forward and lightly kissed him on his lips.

"You're welcome." He chuckled at her behaviour, and when he turned to look to the side, he found Leaf furiously blushing and shying her eyes away from their direction.

The girl from Pallet Town bought a lot of things for her Mother, and she made sure that she paid for them herself from the money she had earned from challenging trainers, by winning the tournament on St. Anne, and the race she had won with Tauros at the Laramie Estate.

Since they had purchased a lot of things, and she wanted to surprise her mother, they visited a logistics company and paid for the things to be delivered to Professor Oak's laboratory.

Of course, Leaf made sure to ask for his permission and she used Anira's PokeNav+ to make a call to the Professor.

At noon, they stopped at a restaurant and had their lunch. And quite frankly, the food here was tastier than what they had at the Imperialis last night.

At 1 pm, when the Breeder's Lane, also known as the Scissor's street, opened after the lunch break, the group headed there to visit Suzie Coron's Salon.

The receptionist apologised to them that the day was already booked, but after Aizen showed her his Trainer ID and asked to see Suzie, the girl immediately ran towards the room where her Boss was grooming a Pokémon and also teaching her assistant the art.

"Boss says that she will meet you inside her office in a few minutes." The bespectacled girl politely informed them after she returned and then led them to the Office on the top floor.

Anira and Leaf were busy looking at the walls where portraits of Suzie from the days of her biggest achievements were displayed.

The two girls were happily chatting with each other when a curious Vulpix, who was hiding behind one of the Portraits, moved it, revealing a cosy secret room of its, and both of them gushed at how pretty its coat was and how beautiful it looked.

"Vul..." The fox enjoyed their ministrations as they scratched its jaw and ran their fingers through its coat, and then it started laughing as Anira played with its belly.

Its laughter was cute enough to bring a smile to Aizen's lips.

A minute later, the door of the office opened, and an amiable-looking girl, with teal hair and brown eyes, entered the room.

Her eyes widened in surprise when she found her young Vulpix playing around with Leaf and Anira, something she had never seen it do with any stranger, and this piqued her curiosity a lot.

"Suzie Coron." She gave her name as she approached Aizen and drew her hand forward.

"Aizen Orayen." He smiled at her when he found her curiously inspecting his features.

A faint blush crept on her cheeks when their eyes met, and the girl retracted her hand and then greeted the others who had come with him.

"How did your Gym Battle in Saffron City go?"

"We have our Marsh Badge on us." He told her, and she smiled before congratulating him and Leaf.

As their talk continued, both Anira and Leaf expressed their desire to get a new haircut from her, and once they started talking about it, Aizen and Sabrina were completely left out.

The Moonheart simply did not care, so, he was the only one who felt a little awkward.

"You should get one too. Your hair have grown too long." Suzie suddenly said to him. "I would love to give you a haircut if you are up for it." And expressed her desire to groom him.

It was not every day that you met a boy so handsome that he could put all the models in the world to shame. She really wanted to see if she could enhance his appeal even further.

"I will be more than happy to have one of the finest Stylists in the world cut my hair. However, I do like my hair slightly long."

"I won't cut them too short." She promised.

When she asked Sabrina if she would like a haircut as well, the Moonheart simply refused.

She did not care about her appearance and blessed as she was, she did not have to care about it either.

Aizen, Anira, and Leaf were more than happy at their newly trimmed hair and styles, and even if they already knew who Suzie was, they were still impressed by her work.

Her achievements were certainly not for show.

The teal-haired girl also wanted to cut Eevee's hair and groom it, but the proud fox simply refused and did not even get off Aizen's shoulder.

Only Aizen and Anira knew how narcissistic Rinko was, and it was proud of its ethereal beauty that no other Eevee could match.

Why would it need a haircut? Only ugly ones needed a haircut.

Suzie was already aware that some Pokémon hated a change in their appearance, so she did not insist on it.

Afterwards, she cancelled her afternoon appointments and led them to her Breeding Farm, which was on the outskirts of the city, right behind her Mansion.

"Hi! You are the Prince, right?" A young man in his early twenties, the same age as Suzie, greeted them at the Farm.

"Yes." Aizen smiled as he shook hands with the boy. "Zane Silvesters, right?" He asked, and the boy was shocked that he knew his name.

"Yes." He happily nodded his head.

"It's nice to meet you. Not everyone can enter the Top 100 Charts in the Pokemon Breeder's Exams."

Zane laughed at his words and shook his head.

"Your name is 9th on the list, Mr. Orayen, and only because you were the ninth person to get the perfect score." He humbly shook his head and then led them inside the Farm.

Aizen and the girls learned that Suzie and Zane were childhood friends, having known each other since they were kids. And right now, both were engaged to each other.

Zane was helping Suzie operate the Breeding Farm, and the Vulpix that was reserved for Aizen, belong to his pair of Ninetales.

"It's a stubborn fellow, unlike its parents and siblings, and it hates getting groomed. You can style its hair, but if you cut it, it will not even look at you for the coming weeks," Zane informed them. "We planned on keeping it at the Farm as a future Breeder, but this one is more interested in fighting and proving its might."

"When Juniper contacted me and informed me that you needed a Vulpix, Xeno came to both our minds." Suzie smiled.

"Xeno? That's a cute name." Anira giggle.

"Yes. It means strange or wild. Fits him perfectly." Zane nodded his head and then led them into the room where the said Vulpix was comfortably sleeping in its soft bed.
