He opened his eyes: "An unfamiliar ceiling."

"Naza, you're finally awake! Daddy was so worried, waaaaah..."

"Dad? Aren't you the lolicon uncle next door to Naza?!"

"So, are you trainers from Pallet Town really incapable of having a normal brain?!"

"Is it... Daddy...?" Sabrina spoke softly, her voice sweet, neither as cheerful as when she laughed before, nor as cold as at the end of the battle, but just a girlish voice that made people feel very comfortable.

"It's me, it's Dad, I'm here." The uncle quickly grasped Naz's hand and said with tears streaming down his face.

"I'm sorry for the trouble I caused everyone earlier," Naza said to Kyosuke.

Previously, due to his childish nature, he had no limits on his pranks. Once he gained superpowers, he naturally used them recklessly, which led to a series of events that followed.

While her aloof, cold, and stubborn personality also leads her to misuse superpowers, she avoids going too far due to her understanding and awareness of society, as well as her self-control.

The uncle always thought that the child's mindset was the real Naz, but he never expected that children were the coexistence of angels and demons.

Fortunately, in the end, when Kyosuke miraculously defeated Natsume, everything came to an end.

"The cancellation of the 'Smiling City' rating, the large-scale loss of population, the decline in the city's evaluation, and the large number of complaints are not major problems. We can solve them one by one," Kyosuke said earnestly.

Naz's smile froze on her face.

"But the fact that there were no casualties is the best outcome," Kyosuke added.

Naz didn't know what expression to wear when facing this strange person.

Of course, all you need to do is smile.

So Naza gave Kyosuke a smile.

Just then, Nurse Joy came in pushing a cart with Chansey on it, which contained several Poké Balls.

After handing everyone's Pokémon to their trainers, Nurse Joy and Chansey skillfully examined Sabrina and said, "Sabrina, you're recovering very well and can be discharged now." They then bowed and said, "Thank you so much for saving Goldenrod City." They then left the ward.

"Huh?" Naz was now confused.

She didn't lose her memory; she clearly knew that the incident was caused by her.

What does this gratitude even mean?

Naza looked completely bewildered, while the older man and Kyosuke burst into laughter: "Haha ...

Then, Sabrina got infected too: "Hahahahahahahaha."

After laughing, Naz finally asked, "How exactly did you explain this to the outside world?"

Naza finally realized that the only reason that the two of them hadn't told the truth was because of this.

The older man and Kyosuke exchanged a glance and began to explain.

After defeating Sabrina, Kyosuke wanted to report her to the League and have her locked up, but the old man's plea made Kyosuke soften. Besides, if the faith of psychics were sent to prison, it might cause a psychic riot, which would be difficult to handle.

Finally, the two realized that if they wanted to remove Naza from the blame, they needed to find a scapegoat or an organization to take the fall. So...

Rockets, it's you!

After some embellishment, the incident was transformed into a story about Team Rocket attempting to take control of Saffron City, only to be stopped by Saffron City Gym Leader Sabrina.

Meanwhile, Natsumi suffered a head injury during the final battle and fell into a coma.

The two then took Sabrina to the Pokémon Center.

After hearing the ending of the story, Sabrina couldn't help but feel sorry for Team Rocket. This time they really had no involvement and were forced to take the blame, but who can blame them when they're the number one evil organization in the Kanto region? They're the first thing that comes to mind when you think of bad things.

Of course, the most important thing is to thank Kyosuke.

"Thank you, Kyosuke," Sabrina said earnestly.

"It's nothing, actually I do have a small request." Kyosuke scratched his head sheepishly.

"The golden badge, is it? I'll make the decision for Sabrina, it's up to you." The older man quickly interjected to make his presence known.

"I already defeated Sabrina, so the badge is rightfully mine, okay?" Kyosuke looked at the old man with disdain. "I just wanted to borrow Sabrina's superpower, don't overthink it."

The trainers in Pallet Town aren't as innocent and kind as they used to be. The old man sighed.

Sabrina sat up straight and said, "If it's a superpower, I shouldn't have any problem. Just give it to me."

After successfully completing the discharge procedures, the three of them walked along the road.

Why not use Instant Teleport? Because Sabrina wants to see more of the current Goldenrod City.

Due to the previous events, the population of Golden City has decreased significantly. The streets are no longer crowded with pedestrians as before; instead, there are only small groups of people gathered together.

The trees and other plants along the roadside were also almost completely destroyed in the subsequent riots.

The older man silently put his arm around Naz's shoulder and whispered, "It's all over now, everything is over."

Naza's body trembled, but she didn't say anything.

Even if you walk slowly, you will still reach your destination.

Kyosuke arrived at the Saffron Gym for the third time.

The dojo's exterior doesn't look much different, which is a blessing in disguise.

Sabrina led the two into the gym, which was littered with various odds and ends, mostly left behind by the group of extremely weak psychics when they fled. Apart from these, only the battle arena was in a complete mess.

Insect silk and stones were scattered everywhere, and many walls and floors were broken. Combined with the colorful paint, it created an indescribable feeling.

Fortunately, superpowers are indeed powerful in some aspects. Sabrina cleared all the trash from the entire gym in just one minute. All that's left is some renovation. It won't be long before it can reopen for business.

How can we survive without wealthy superpowered individuals to help us learn?

However, now is not the time to think about money. Sabrina waved to Kyosuke and the old man, signaling them to follow, and then opened the door behind the battlefield.

Kyosuke had expected the room to be filled with things that Sabrina would like, but instead there was only a cushion.

"This is my meditation room," Sabrina explained, then manipulated a box to fly up, opened it, and inside was a golden badge.

"Then, the Saffron Gym Badge is yours."

A badge floated up from the box and flew to Kyosuke's front.

Kyosuke accepted the badge, thanked Sabrina, and tucked it into his coat.

"Seven badges now, just one more to go. Cinnabar Island Cinnabar Gym, I absolutely have to go." Kyosuke looked at the two rows of badges, realizing that he was only one step away from the League.

"So, finally, what is your request?" Naz asked with a smile.
