Rosa puffed out her chest proudly. She spoke about the battle against Lysandre earlier.
During the fight, that guy had been sweating all over and even tried to call for help. It was truly laughable.
"After all, his strength only goes that far," Damian said with a faint laugh.
Lysandre really was bolder than Cyrus. However, it was not surprising. After all, Platinum and the others looked very young.
"Besides the mission rewards themselves, each of the four of you will receive an extra 20,000 merit points," Damian said with a smile.
"Yay!!"
"Damian, I love you!"
"Damian is so generous! Hehe~"
Platinum and the other three girls were very happy. After all, merit points were something real and valuable!
"Also, Drayton and Kieran, you two performed very well this time too. You will also receive an extra 10,000 merit points."
"Lacey and Carmine, you receive an extra 5,000 merit points. As for the other team members, as long as they took part in this mission and helped with the cleanup work in Lumiose City afterward, they can also get 1,000 extra merit points."
Damian was very generous.
"Thank you, Boss~!"
"Boss is so generous!"
"Boss, I love you~!"
Lacey and the others were also very excited.
"Wait, wait, wait. Drayton, did you think I didn't hear you? It is fine for Rosa and the others, but you'd better not love me."
Damian did not know whether to laugh or cry. He joked as he scolded Drayton.
"Our sexual orientations are normal, okay?"
"Oh, come on. I just couldn't think of any other words at the moment."
Drayton scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.
"Hahaha~"
For a moment, the whole yard was filled with happy laughter. The atmosphere was very relaxed.
AZ had a smile on his face. He really liked this relaxed and cheerful team atmosphere. Believing in Damian was definitely the right choice.
"For the next few days, if everyone is not busy, I will have to trouble you all. Please help clear away those plants here in Lumiose City," Damian said to everyone.
This was a very good chance to build a good reputation. Team Rocket had not only helped defeat Team Flare, but they were also helping the people of Lumiose City rebuild their homes.
Wouldn't good reviews come flooding in because of this?
"Damian, what are you saying? This kind of thing is not hard work. We are very happy to do it."
"Lacey is right. Lumiose City is truly in a terrible state."
"Yeah, Team Flare went too far. Luckily, Lord Damian was there to deal with that Zygarde. Otherwise, I really wouldn't dare imagine what would have happened."
As they spoke, everyone started chatting. After all, they were all young people. It was easy to find things to talk about.
Damian looked at everyone with a smile. He casually poured the water out of his bag again. This Yveltal really leaked a lot of water. The bag was full again so soon.
At seven o'clock in the evening, a guest arrived at the villa.
"Miss Alexa?" Damian looked at Alexa with some curiosity.
"Damian, I am very sorry to bother you so late."
"That does not matter at all. Please, sit down first. But I do not know what Miss Alexa is here for?"
Damian gestured for Alexa to sit down. He smiled at her. One could tell that Alexa had specially changed into clean clothes before coming.
"It is like this. Damian, you also know about today's events. I recorded many scenes. It shows your Team Rocket fighting against Team Flare."
Alexa's voice was a little excited. That's right, she had not gone to the shelter today. Instead, she had stayed behind and filmed a lot.
"Oh? Miss Alexa, that was not very wise. It would not be good if you ran into danger."
Damian raised an eyebrow. This Alexa really had a lot of courage.
"Yes, but opportunity and risk exist together. I noticed something. That giant snake that summoned those plants... you were the one who defeated it, right, Damian?" Alexa asked Damian carefully.
"That was the Legendary Pokémon Zygarde. It was being controlled by Team Flare. Team Flare really dares to do anything."
Damian couldn't help clicking his tongue. To be honest, he really admired Lysandre. The Ultimate Weapon and Zygarde, these two trump cards showed he really had come prepared.
"But luckily, you were there, Damian," Alexa praised him. She had noticed from a distance that even Diantha could do nothing against that black-and-red Zygarde.
"You flatter me. Is there anything else, Miss Alexa?" Damian said with a smile. In truth, his words already carried the hidden meaning of asking her to leave.
He had already asked Diantha to come over tonight. Looking at the time, she should arrive in about ten minutes.
"Um... I wonder if you have time next time, Damian, to accept another interview?" Alexa naturally understood what Damian meant. She carefully chose her words as she asked him.
"As you know, people on the internet are very curious about you and your Team Rocket right now. Also, Team Rocket helped the League protect Lumiose City today."
"If you are willing to accept an interview, I believe it will definitely become very popular."
Damian's last interview video had become famous all over the world. But Alexa knew very well that it was only the beginning! However, the condition for all of this was that Damian was still willing to continue giving her interviews.
After she finished speaking, she saw that Damian's interest was low. Alexa understood then that Damian did not care much about this. She gritted her teeth. She did not want to give up this chance!
"As long as you are willing to give me a chance, Damian, no matter what you need, we will do it!"
"Oh?"
Damian became a little interested after hearing that. He couldn't help looking Alexa up and down. The living room suddenly became quiet.
Noticing Damian's gaze moving over her body, Alexa couldn't help pressing her legs together tightly.
"It seems Miss Alexa is not someone content with being ordinary." Soon, Damian laughed.
There was no mocking tone in Damian's words. Hearing this, Alexa bit her lip.
"I do not have your kind of talent, Damian, but... I also hope I can have a career of my own."
Yes, if she did not want to be truly famous and successful, she would not have taken the risk to interview Damian in the first place.
"Being able to say what is truly in your heart like that... Miss Alexa, you have made me see you in a new light."
Damian stood up. He stretched and looked at Alexa meaningfully.
"Since that is the case, come to my room. Let's have a good talk there. What do you think?"
What was there to talk about in a bedroom? Alexa was not stupid. She was a reporter. However, she only hesitated for a single second before standing up and following Damian.
What was there to hesitate about?
At this moment, not far from Damian's villa.
Diantha, who was in disguise, was walking along the road. Then, her phone rang.
"No need to come tonight. Someone is covering your shift."
Reading this message quietly, the expression on Diantha's face turned very ugly.
"I worked so hard to run all the way here to sleep with you, and I am almost there, but now you are telling me to leave?!!"
And she had even prepared a surprise for him today!!
Originally, because of Damian's performance today, Diantha had been in a pretty good mood on the way over. After all, if Damian had not acted, Diantha did not dare think about what the final result would have been.
But now, her good mood was gone in an instant. Diantha's teeth were almost grinding apart.
Which damn bitch seduced Damian?
Dammit!
