Chapter 611 Story from Natsu

...

Aether Heaven.

The Aether Foundation is still very good, and arranged a one-family villa for Natsu in Aether Paradise, not far from Lusamine's private home.

And in the courtyard of the villa.

Natsu sat on the ground with a book in his hand, reading silently.

Ahead of him, Vulpix and Eevee were playing around.

"Ev~~Evv~~"

"Vuull~~"

The laughter is endless.

On Natsu's other side, across the grass where Eevee and Vulpix were, stood a little girl.

Dressed in a white dress, wearing a wide-brimmed hat, holding a Clefairy doll in her hand, looking at Vulpix and Eevee playing with hope.

Only.

Every time she mustered up the courage to charge forward, she always had a frightened look on her face and didn't dare to come any closer.

It remained in this state, Natsu and Lillie didn't make a sound, only the laughter of the two small Pokemon could be heard.

so!

After reading the last bit of information about the "Totem aura" left in his hands, Natsu closed his notebook.

The effects of "Totem aura", "Ultra aura" and "Sparkling Stone" have become more specific.

This helps him develop and mine Beedrill's "Boss aura".

Tapu Bulu uses the "Sparkling Stone" to further stimulate Beedrill's "Boss aura", or more precisely his "Totem aura" -part of his "Boss aura".

This gave Natsu some more ideas.

Is it possible to complete the combination "Boss aura" and "Totem aura" in Beedrill?

And black Spar was given to him by Tapu Bulu.

Natsu never understood what it was.

If possible, he hoped that the information in the Aether Foundation would be of assistance to him.

Natsu lifted his head, looked at Lillie who was still stuck there, wanted to come closer but didn't dare, and smiled.

"Afraid?" Natsu's soft voice, as if with a special charm, reached Lillie's ears.

Hearing Natsu's words, Lillie stunned, first shook her head, then hesitated, then nodded.

"Sit down here."

Natsu patted the grass beside him.

Lillie looked at Natsu, then at Vulpix and Eevee who were still playing around.

After hesitating for a while, she moved away from Vulpix and Eevee and came to Natsu's side.

She didn't sit either, just stared at Natsu silently.

Lillie knew that her mother had hired Natsu, so she didn't go against Natsu's words.

It was only for strangers, strangers she didn't know very well, she wouldn't be sitting next to Natsu all of a sudden.

Natsu didn't push either.

said with a smile: "Let me tell you a story."

"Story?"

"Wanna hear it?"

"Um." Lillie responded with a faint mosquito sound.

"Once upon a time, there was a Pokémon named Ralts"

Natsu starts telling clichéd stories that the Pokémon world has never had.

Types of stories that can be added to a story by simply changing the name.

For adults of course too naive, but for a little girl like Lillie, this was completely new.

...

...

The other side.

Lusamine Office.

"Are they still together?" Lusamine asked.

Even though Natsu doesn't let them watch, Lusamine believes that with the Aether Foundation's technology, she can still keep an eye on Natsu.

But.

Everything they do is within Natsu's perception and Dragapult's watchful eye.

But it doesn't matter, Natsu just mentioned it and wouldn't fully believe them.

"Lady Lillie came to Mr Yanxia's side. Although I don't know what Mr Yanxia said, Lady Lillie laughed happily." said Wicker.

"Laugh?"

Lusamine was a little surprised.

Lillie hasn't laughed since that incident.

It's good not to cry, but no smile.

This calmed Lusamine's drooping heart a little.

At least, she wasn't trying to find anyone or anything in a crisis.

But they are relaxed.

Faba, who was standing beside her, didn't look so good.

If Lillie recovered, he might be the first to suffer.

The Ultra Wormhole was opened because he was looking for profit.

than something unexpected.

Although Lillie was suffering, it wasn't too serious.

It's just that Faba used some means to prevent Lusamine from knowing that Lillie was in danger because of his impulsive nature, and withheld some of Lillie's memories.

But Faba wasn't very good at this method. While holding back Lillie's memories, he wasn't giving her any spiritual support, and had to strengthen a kind of fear in her heart.

It's almost like what Natsu once did to Joanna.

It's just that Natsu uses the Aegislash ability to control people's hearts, and combined with Psychic Alakazam, Joanna's support for Natsu is strengthened.

Because Aegislash's ability is more thorough.

This practice cannot completely control a person, but it can guide one's thinking.

Over time, a kind of thinking habit can form.

And.

It depends on the will of the person being manipulated.

Like Joanna, Natsu is already at his limits. Later, she was supplemented with her own actual actions and evidence to deepen his impression.

But Lillie was a little girl, and she was in a coma at the time. There was no need to say how much she would have.

Maybe if it was Gladion, Faba would have failed.

In addition, Faba only uses Psychic "Hypnosis" from Hypno.

This seemed really rude to Natsu.

Traces may fade over time.

But it's only been a few days, and it wasn't difficult for Natsu, a Psychic, to understand.

That is, Lusamine doesn't let go much because of guilt and because Lillie's condition is so bad.

Otherwise, anyone who met a strong Psychic could more or less understand this matter.

Of course, it's possible that Faba has a few more hands involved.

So when Natsu arrives, Faba, an arrogant man, follows Wicke to get him.

He was afraid that Natsu might have a bad influence on him.

"Then be it, leave them alone, and drop all scrutiny." Lusamine waved her hand decisively.

...

...

"So Princess Gardevoir is living happily with seven Munchlax?" Lillie winked, as if expressing sympathy and longing for what had happened to Princess Gardevoir in that story.

This was one of the stories Natsu told her.

The story of Princess Gardevoir and the Seven Munchlax.

There are also several such as "Gothitelle's Slipper", "The Big Houndoom and Delphox with the Red Riding Hood", "Slowpoke Prince" and many more.

It's not just that Natsu and Lillie managed to get closer.

It also makes Lillie's fear of Pokémon less overwhelming.

At least.

Unknowingly, Vulpix and Eevee had slipped into Natsu's arms, and while listening to the story with great interest, Lillie didn't seem stiff and scared.

Wants to heal Lillie.

As part of her memory was withheld.

But the fear in her heart was the most important thing.

Without Natsu, they can only choose this tricky way for now.

Though, Natsu also has a simpler way.

But that seems too simple.

And maybe dangerous for Lillie.

No matter what the Aether Foundation is, no matter what happens to Lusamine, this little girl is at least a kind person.

For good people, Natsu naturally uses good methods.

After all, he is a "good guy".

"Brother Yanxia, ​​​​tell me one more story, just tell me one more." Lillie took Natsu's arm, shook him gently, and stood up pleadingly.

This was definitely the first time Lilie had heard a story like this.

"Eevvv!!"

"Vuull!!"

The two little Pokemon also begged.

You see, isn't this just standing on a united front and having the same topic?

Even Lillie didn't notice.

Natsu laughed helplessly.

"Okay okay sit quietly."
