Chapter 331 Appointment Order

"Mr. Anjie, I have something to attend to. I'll talk to you later. I'll send you Professor Oak's contact information later."

"Okay, you go ahead and do your thing," Anjie said with a smile.

"Goodbye, Mr. Anjie." With that, Ash's image disappeared from Anjie's sight.

Shortly after ending the call with Ash, Angel received a message from Ash containing Professor Oak's contact information.

Anjie immediately dialed the number.

After a series of beeping sounds, the call was quickly connected, but it wasn't Professor Oak who answered; instead, a brown-haired boy answered.

Anja immediately recognized him as Professor Oak's grandson, Gary.

"Hello, I'm looking for Professor Oak," Ange said first.

Xiao Mao stared at An Jie for a few seconds, then suddenly said with a look of surprise, "You are Mr. An Jie from Carlos."

An Jie was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and nodded, saying, "It's me."

Xiao Mao asked, "Are you looking for Grandpa?"

Anjie nodded and said, "Yes, I have something I'd like to ask Professor Oak for help with. Ash gave me his contact information."

"Oh, it's Ash." Gary suddenly realized. "Okay, wait a moment, I'll go get Grandpa."

Anjie then heard Gary calling out to Professor Oak from the other end of the phone.

"Grandpa, someone's looking for you!"

"Coming!" came an old voice in response.

Before long, Anjie saw an old man with a bob on his head appear on the projection. The bob looked furious and kept pecking at the old man's forehead. No one knew what the old man had done to it.

"Ouch~~~ It hurts, it hurts, it hurts~~~"

This old man is Professor Oak.

"Hello, Professor Oak," Ange greeted him first.

Professor Oak looked at Angie and said, "So it's you! I've heard so much about you and always wanted to meet you, but I never had the chance."

Anjie smiled and said, "That would be my honor."

Professor Oak asked, puzzled, "By the way, what did you want to see me about?"

Anjie quickly explained the reason, "It's like this, I heard that you have seeds of Cordia lotus, so I wanted to ask if you could give me some."

The lotus that Genesect liked was scientifically called the Cordia lotus.

"The seeds of the Cordia Lotus?" Professor Oak pondered upon hearing this. "I think I do have some, but I can't quite remember where I put them. I'll look for them later."

Anjie exclaimed in surprise, "You're willing to give it to me?"

Professor Oak thought for a moment and said, "Giving it to you is no big deal, but you have to grant me one request."

Anjie quickly replied, "Please speak."

Professor Oak immediately rubbed his hands together excitedly, "Hehe, I'd like to study your Pokémon, I wonder if that's alright?"

"You mean you're coming to Carlos?" Angie asked in surprise.

Professor Oak said, "Yes, your house is worth visiting."

Anjie hesitated and said, "This... I need to discuss it with everyone. If they have no objections, I would certainly welcome you to visit."

"Of course, of course, ask away, and then give me your answer," Professor Oak said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll get back to you as soon as possible," Anjie nodded.

After the matter was settled, Anja ended the call with Professor Oak.

During dinner that evening, Ange told everyone that Professor Oak wanted to visit, and specifically sought the opinions of Xerneas, Yveltal, Latios, Latias, Volcanion, Diancie, Magearna, and Darkrai.

Because Anjie knew that Professor Oak's main purpose was actually these legendary and mythical Pokémon.

No one objected to Professor Oak's arrival; as long as Angel felt it was okay, they felt it was okay too.

So after dinner, Anja called Professor Oak to tell him the good news.

Professor Oak was very pleased and said that he would bring the seeds of the Cordia Lotus to Angel when he came to the Carlos region.

Several days passed in the blink of an eye, and Professor Oak soon arrived at the capital city of Azoth.

Upon receiving Anjie's reply, he immediately set off from the Kanto region.

That day, Anjie received a phone call from Ji Meiya.

The royal family is hosting a welcome banquet for Professor Oak tonight and has invited Angie to attend.

In the evening, Anjie chose a pure white dress to change into, and dressed Tianxi in a pink and white tulle dress. Then she took it with her and set off for the palace.

The royal palace often hosts social banquets, but Angie usually doesn't like to attend.

Upon arriving at the palace gate, the guards respectfully bowed to Anjie and readily allowed her to pass.

Led by a maid, Anjie quickly arrived at the venue.

When he entered, the banquet was already in full swing, with almost all the celebrities and nobles of the Kingdom of Azot present.

Seeing that Ji Meiya and Edward seemed to be talking to someone important, An Jie didn't go over to disturb them.

"Your Highness!"

Just then, a voice called out to Angel. Angel turned around and saw that it was Mephistopheles, accompanied by her boyfriend Angel.

The two young people finally got together.

"Your Highness, it's been a long time." Mephisto stepped forward and greeted Ange.

Angel also said, "How have you been lately? You haven't been to the shop in a long time."

"I'm fine," Anjie said with a helpless, bitter smile. "It's not that I don't want to go to the store, it's that I can't, and you know why."

Mephistopheles and Angel nodded in unison. Angel was too famous now; if he showed up at the store, it would definitely cause a commotion.

Sure enough, after Anjie had only exchanged a few words with Mephistopheles and Angel, people started coming over to chat with him.

Although Ange was not very happy about this kind of socializing, as a member of the royal family, he could not be impolite, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and deal with it.

Mephistopheles and Angel stayed by Angie's side, helping her deal with the guests and saving her a lot of trouble.

Shortly after, Professor Oak appeared with Gary.

That's right, Xiao Mao came this time too.

Unlike Ash, who remained committed to becoming a Pokémon Trainer, Gary embarked on the path of a Pokémon Scholar after participating in the Silver Conference in the Johto region with Ash.

Now that he has the opportunity to see a legendary Pokémon, he certainly won't miss it.

As soon as Professor Oak appeared, many people crowded around him to talk to him. After casually responding to them, he walked straight toward Ange.

"Your Highness Ange, we've finally met." Professor Oak smiled and raised his glass to Ange.

Angie raised his glass to Professor Oak as well, saying, "You can just call me Angie."

Professor Oak readily agreed, "Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony, Ange."

Professor Oak then added, "I was initially reluctant for His Majesty Edward to host this banquet, but I have something to announce, so I have no choice but to hold it."

"Is there something to announce?" Anjie looked puzzled. "What is it?"

Professor Oak smiled mysteriously. At that moment, Princess Himeya walked to the front of the banquet hall, holding a microphone, and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Royal Family is hosting this banquet today not only to welcome Professor Oak back, but also to announce something very important."

Upon hearing this, the guests all looked at Ji Meiya, their eyes filled with doubt.

Himeya continued, "Now, let's invite Professor Oak to announce this good news for us."

Professor Oak walked onto the stage with a smile, took the microphone from Mia, and cleared his throat.

"Ahem~ Ahem~ It's a pleasure to be a guest in the Kingdom of Azot. As the birthplace of mysterious science, it is an ancient country with a charming style and culture, and it has also produced many outstanding talents, including His Highness Ange."

The news I'm announcing today concerns His Highness Angie.

At this point, Professor Oak suddenly paused, leaving everyone in suspense.

After a long silence, he slowly spoke: "By decision within the alliance, Ange Azot is hereby appointed as one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Carlos Alliance."

Upon hearing Professor Oak's words, the guests below were first surprised, then overjoyed, and then burst into thunderous applause.

"Now, let's invite His Highness Ange to come up and say a few words," Professor Oak said with a smile.

Anjie was extremely embarrassed and felt a chill run down her spine.

Nobody told him about this, and as an i person, he is now filled with resistance.

"Hurry up and get on!" Professor Oak urged.

Anjie had no choice but to quickly walk onto the stage, and everyone burst into enthusiastic applause once again.

As he passed by Ji Meiya, he muttered a complaint, "Why didn't you tell me beforehand? I wasn't prepared at all."

Himeya said helplessly, "We only found out about it from Professor Oak at the last minute!"

Okay, Professor Oak is so unreliable. Why didn't you say something so important sooner?

Anjie walked to the microphone and greeted all the guests present, "Hello everyone."

Seeing that everyone was looking at him expectantly, waiting for him to say more, he had no choice but to continue: "I am honored that the alliance has chosen me, and I am also very happy to serve as one of the Four Heavenly Kings."

During my tenure, I will certainly fulfill my responsibilities and work with everyone to make the league and Azot a better place.

Ji Meiya knew An Jie well enough to know that An Jie couldn't continue speaking, so she immediately led the applause. After the applause ended, she went on stage, took the microphone from An Jie, and finished speaking for An Jie.

After stepping off the stage, Anjie let out a long sigh of relief.

Mephisto and Angel trotted up to him, and Angel excitedly said, "Your Highness, you've become one of the Four Heavenly Kings!"

Anjie nodded and said, "That's right."

Angel grasped Ange's hand tightly. "That's wonderful! That's wonderful! Our Azot finally has its Four Heavenly Kings! Your Highness, you are truly amazing!"

Mephistopheles didn't speak, but his face also turned red with excitement.

As the children of the Minister of Agriculture and the Minister of Finance, they were acutely aware of the difficulties Azot had faced in its development.

Now that Anjie has become one of the Four Heavenly Kings, all his difficulties will be resolved.

Professor Oak finished speaking and returned to Ange's side.

Seeing that Professor Oak seemed to have something to say to Angel, Angel and Mephisto tactfully said, "Your Highness, we'll be leaving now."

"Go ahead," Anjie nodded.

Seeing this, Professor Oak said to Angie, "Shall we talk somewhere else?"

Anjie nodded and said, "Okay."

The two avoided the others and went to the balcony.

Professor Oak first handed over what he had promised to Ange.

"Here are the Cordia lotus seeds you requested."

Anjie took the paper package, opened it, and saw black lotus seeds lying inside. Each seed was about the size of a fingernail, plump and uniform, and it was clear that they had been carefully preserved.

"Thank you, Professor Oak," Ange said gratefully.

Professor Oak waved his hand and said, "You're welcome, it's an agreement."

After putting the lotus seeds away, Anjie heard Professor Oak say, "Receiving such an appointment so suddenly, it must have caught you a bit off guard, right?"

An Jie said with a wry smile, "That's right, I wasn't prepared at all. When I went on stage just now, I was sweating profusely."

Professor Oak laughed heartily and said, "I'm really sorry, but I only received a last-minute notification from the League to announce this order to you."

Anjie suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

Professor Oak continued, "This order of mine was specifically issued to you, Azot, by the League."

After a while, you may need to go to Miare City to assist the Carlos Alliance in officially issuing an appointment order to the public.

The league should contact you soon; just wait for their message.

Anjie nodded and said, "I understand."

After saying this, Professor Oak suddenly rubbed his hands together excitedly and said, "Then when are we going to your house?"

Anjie said, both amused and exasperated, "Anytime is fine. If you'd like, we can set off after the banquet. You can stay at my house for now."

"Great, that's exactly what I've been waiting for!" Professor Oak patted Ange on the shoulder.

After chatting for a while, Professor Oak patted Angie on the shoulder and said, "Alright, let's go back. You're the main character today, and everyone will have complaints if the main character isn't here."

Anjie laughed and said, "Aren't you the main character?"

An old man and a young man walked into the banquet hall, chatting and laughing.

Back in the banquet hall, the two found that there were far fewer guests. After asking around, they learned that there were Pokémon battles taking place in the battle hall next door, and everyone had gone to join in the fun.

So Professor Oak and Angel decided to go and take a look as well.

When they arrived there, they discovered that the two sides fighting were Angel and Shigeru, and their battle had already reached a fever pitch.

Gary's Pokémon is Arcanine.

Arcanine is a legendary Pokémon, a single Fire-type Pokémon. It is classified as a legendary Pokémon because many legends about it circulate around the world, but it is not actually a legendary Pokémon.

Arcanines have an imposing presence, and the raging flames burning within them allow them to run with incredible agility, as if flying. Throughout history, countless people have been captivated by their graceful appearance.

Angel used a Shrimp, a Pokémon unique to the Kalos region.

Shrike is a launcher Pokémon with a single Water type. It possesses a giant pincer that can fire powerful energy waves, thus gaining the Mega Launcher ability. It gains a 50% power boost when using Pulse-type moves.
