Chương 412: The Dark Knight
After Genos and his group left, Yuga contacted Flint to inform him about his two Eevee that he wanted to evolve into Glaceon and Leafeon.
Flint readily agreed to Yuga's request since he was currently on a journey and helping with such matters was convenient for him. He did mention that Yuga should be patient since he had some other things to take care of first.
Yuga had no objections to this arrangement. Evolving the Eevee wasn't an urgent matter, so he told Flint to proceed at his own pace, not wanting to disrupt his plans.
After a visit to the Pokémon Center to transfer the two Eevee to Flint, Yuga returned to the Day Care and bought a Water Stone from the League Store, preparing to use it on the remaining Eevee.
Not long after Yuga returned, Arata Sena excitedly approached him, telling him that he had successfully defeated and captured a Camerupt. He wanted to thank Yuga for his help.
Seeing Arata Sena's enthusiastic demeanor, Yuga couldn't help but sigh, thinking, "He's truly a child at heart."
However, when he considered his own age, he realized that he was just a year older than Arata Sena. It made him feel like a child himself. But with his soul being that of a man in his thirties, Yuga couldn't help but shiver.
"Enough with this child talk!" he thought.
Speaking of which, in this world, being 17 years old wasn't considered a child anymore. Here, 10-year-olds were already held accountable under the law, and 16-year-olds were considered adults. Marriages at 17 or 18 years of age were quite common.
Yuga vaguely remembered that Ash's mother was 19 when she gave birth to him. He wondered if he remembered correctly.
Arata Sena had come with his junior, Akihito, to deliver the news about Camerupt. When Akihito saw Arata Sena holding Camerupt's Poké Ball, he looked at it with envy.
"Boss, thank you," Akihito suddenly said.
Yuga was puzzled by Akihito's words. Why would Akihito thank him when Arata Sena had just captured a new Pokémon? They seemed quite close already.
Seeing Yuga's gaze shifting between him and Arata Sena, Akihito realized there was a misunderstanding. He quickly clarified, "I'm talking about Anya's matter!"
Yuga then understood that Akihito was thanking him for helping Anya.
"There's no need to thank me for that. Both of you are the pillars of the Day Care now. Properly nurturing you is my duty," Yuga replied.
Akihito nodded in response, making a silent vow to work hard and not let Yuga down for the kindness he had shown.
The busy day passed quickly, and in the evening, Yuga closed the doors and windows of the shop before heading to the second floor to sleep.
As it was approaching summer, he left the windows of his room open to let in the cool night breeze, making the room feel refreshing.
Under the gentle night breeze, Yuga gradually drifted into slumber.
At this moment, a shadowy figure, clad in black, entered Yuga's room through the open window, grabbing the foot of a Crobat to silently glide inside.
Crobat, being a nocturnal Pokémon, could enter without making any noise, even as it flapped its wings rapidly.
Once inside, the shadowy figure released Crobat's foot and silently landed on the ground. He then glanced at Yuga, who was peacefully asleep, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Subsequently, the intruder began searching Yuga's room with utmost caution.
However, after checking just a couple of cabinets, he suddenly felt his surroundings change dramatically. The small, cramped room vanished, replaced by a desolate graveyard.
The intruder was startled and fell to the ground. He looked around and saw countless dark graves, a total absence of sound, and an eerie silence that sent shivers down his spine.
Aside from the graves, the intruder also noticed the faint swaying of tree shadows near the graves, felt the chilling breeze on his skin, and saw wisps of eerie blue flames rising from the tombstones.
He wanted to shout or scream, but something seemed to have choked his throat, and no sound escaped his lips.
Slowly, he felt like he couldn't breathe, and he began to lie on the ground, clutching his throat and struggling desperately. He writhed with all his might, but it was in vain. He sensed that his life was slipping away from him.
Just when he was about to despair and closed his eyes, he suddenly heard a distinct "snap," which was very loud in the silent environment.
He abruptly opened his eyes and found that the graves, tree shadows, and ghostly flames had all disappeared. He was back in his room, and the room's owner, Yuga, was looking at him with a smile. Floating beside Yuga was a Mismagius, while his Crobat had long lost its ability to battle and lay motionless on the floor.
The loud "snap" was the sound of Yuga turning on the lights.
It turned out that everything he had seen was an illusion created by Mismagius.
"Nice to see you again, Butler!" Yuga said with a smile.
The person lying on the ground quickly touched the mask covering his face and realized he was still alive. He tried to speak, but no sound came out. When he saw Mismagius, with its eyes emitting a blue glow, he understood everything.
Seeing the nervous Butler, Yuga walked over with a smile and removed the mask from his face. It was indeed Butler.
"I knew it was you the moment you entered. Who else would sneak into my place for a break-in?" Yuga chuckled as he got up.
Seeing Butler's calm expression, Yuga couldn't help but laugh.
"Are you still waiting for Diane to come and rescue you? Wake up!" Yuga said.
As Yuga's words trailed off, a Gengar appeared in the room, and along with it were the unconscious Diane and a Kirlia.
"See, I told you!" Yuga pointed to the unconscious Diane and Kirlia. He had been cautious this time after the previous encounter. He didn't underestimate the situation.
Seeing Diane and Kirlia tossed carelessly on the ground by Gengar, Butler's face turned extremely unpleasant.
He hadn't expected Yuga to capture Diane so easily. Diane, with her Kirlia that could use Teleport flawlessly, was supposed to be the backup plan for security. But now, both of his contingency plans had failed.
After their previous showdown, Butler had a rough estimate of Yuga's strength. He thought that with Crobat as a safeguard, he could deal with Yuga, and even if things went south, they could make a quick escape.
However, he had greatly underestimated Yuga's abilities. He couldn't have anticipated that Yuga had a Ghost-type Pokémon, nearly on the level of Elite, as his personal guardian.
Yuga looked at the Crobat lying on the ground.
...

...
To be honest, Butler had learned a valuable lesson this time. The Crobat he had with him was indeed extremely powerful, just one step away from being pseudo-Elite level Pokémon. Its array of moves was also impressive.
Although Yuga didn't know how Butler had obtained this outstanding Crobat, it was clear that both he and Crobat were no match for Yuga pseudo-Elite level Mismagius.
