"What?! Elesa, you're going back?"
When Ash brought Elesa and the others to Sabrina's house, he was met with the news that Elesa was leaving. Elesa said helplessly, "That's right. My grandfather and the others have finished their training, so I can go back. Moreover, the Unova side also told me, the Gym Leader, to hurry back..."
Elesa had no choice. After all, she was a Gym Leader of the Unova region, and since her family had produced three Champion-level trainers, she, the hero of this achievement, had to be present. Although the real hero was Ash, in order to prevent the rest of the family from bothering Ash, they could only give him more gifts when the time came.
Ash perfectly understood Elesa's difficulties. It's a family, and it couldn't just be Elesa's immediate family in it. Now that Elesa's family had three Champions, Ash, the hot commodity, had become a super delicious prize in many people's eyes.
"Sigh. I originally wanted to watch you win the championship. Looks like I won't be able to. But I'll cheer for you on TV."
"Alright, but I should also contact your mom and the others."
"Sure. My mom happens to have something to tell you."
Seeing Elesa trying to hold back her laughter, Ash knew that his and Elesa's relationship had probably been discovered.
Just as Ash thought, although Elesa's mother looked at Ash lovingly through the video call, the look in Elesa's father's eyes behind her was terrifying.
"Ash."
"Yes!"
"Don't blame me for calling Elesa back. Although you two are already engaged, it's best not to get pregnant before marriage, at least." Elesa's mother didn't say much else, but her father's glare at Ash grew increasingly terrifying.
"Get lost. If you don't want those broken eyes, you can throw them away."
Elesa's grandfather kicked Elesa's father away, then smiled at Ash and said, "Thank you so much for what happened this time. But we aren't ungrateful. Even though you are Elesa's fiancé, we must still reward you. So, Ash, we're going to send you something. According to the legend of our Levin family, it's something only a Pikachu can use."
"Something Pikachu can use? Could it be..."
"That's right, it's a Light Ball. I'm sure your Pikachu will become even stronger with it."
Elesa's grandfather, Raika, looked at the Pikachu on Ash's shoulder, and said with a hint of melancholy, "A low-tier Legendary beast-level Pikachu... I didn't expect one to actually exist."
"Pika pika!" Hearing Raika talk about him like that, Pikachu puffed out his little chest proudly. Ash patted Pikachu's head in amusement and said, "Isn't that obvious? My Pikachu is my very first partner. Of course, Meowth is the second."
As he spoke, Ash lifted the Meowth beside him, and Meowth greeted Raika.
"Hello there, meow."
"Oh, is this the Mr. Meowth who is beloved by countless professors? I've heard so much about you. But I truly didn't expect Mr. Meowth to be at the peak of the Elite Four level."
Looking at Ash's Meowth, Raika also confirmed that the video previously banned from broadcasting by the Pokémon League was real; Ash really did have a bunch of overlord-level Pokémon under his command. If that was the case, he could completely shut those elders up. Those brainless fools trying to threaten them by suggesting breaking off the engagement with Elesa—his granddaughter wasn't theirs to control. If they had the guts, they could go tell him themselves!
"Alright, the Light Ball will be sent to you later. Elesa does need to come home for a bit. You two lovebirds take this chance to play a little longer. Also, if anyone from our family tells you anything in Elesa's name, don't believe a word of it. Our family isn't that shameless, but I can't say the same for the other branches."
Ash instantly understood what the old man meant, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, if someone really uses Elesa's name, I'll let them know why the Grass-type Pokémon in the mountains behind Pallet Town are so strong."
"Then I am relieved."
"By the way, do you guys mind if I give Elesa a bodyguard?"
"A bodyguard?"
"Yeah. It's a good chance for Elesa to meet him too. Come on out, Ekans."
As Ash threw a Poké Ball, a deep purple Ekans appeared before everyone. This Ekans merely glanced quietly at everyone before quietly wrapping itself around Elesa's arm.
Looking at the color of Ash's Ekans' body, Raika's expression turned grave. He understood that the darker an Ekans' color, the stronger its toxicity, and the color of this Ekans was truly terrifying.
"Ekans, from now on, you'll be responsible for protecting Elesa. Also, she's your trainer from now on. Make sure you get along well with her."
Petting Ekans's head, Ash looked at this child of his Arbok; it had perfectly inherited its father's deadly poison.
"Ssss~"
Ekans nodded, and Elesa looked at Ekans with great interest and said, "Please take care of me from now on."
