The floor-to-ceiling windows filtered the afternoon sunlight into a honey color, which slanted across the dark green velvet sofa.
The copper chandelier casts a fine speck of light across the oak tabletop, making the gold rims of the bone china cups flicker. The air is filled with the burnt aroma of freshly ground coffee, mingled with the scent of buttery scones wafting from the kitchen, slowly fermenting against the languid jazz trumpet music.
Occasionally, you can see a few unique Pikachu sitting at the counter ordering coffee, while their owners are "standing" beside them.
In the corner of the cafe, a man and a woman were looking at each other face to face.
The man sitting on the left side of the cafe was slowly spinning the metal spoon in his hand clockwise while staring at the woman's face with a faint smile.
The woman's expression was obviously much more serious. Although there was also a cup of hot coffee in front of her, she obviously had no intention of touching it.
"How? How are you thinking?"
"This is your only chance to save Roz."
"You don't want President Luo Zi to be executed directly, do you, Miss Olivia?"
Zi Yu picked up the coffee and asked her with a smile.

Chapter 222: Reward
Yes, after saying goodbye to Mary and Cucumber, Zi Yu did not take Lurina directly to Padia District Zero as originally planned, but went directly to meet with Olivia.
If we look at her identity alone, Olivia is just an 'ordinary secretary' of Roz.
Looking at the entire Galar, this person seems to be a big shot.
But in the final analysis, she is merely an extension of Roz's will. All her rights and status come entirely from Roz himself, and she cannot really be compared with people like Roz and Dan Di.
So the question is, is it really true that we don't need to pay attention to Olivia?
The answer is of course no.
Olivia is not as simple as she seems. She is in a much deeper situation than it appears.
Although many people believe that it was Sonia's grandmother, Dr. Mulan, who developed the Maximus Bracelet, Olivia was actually one of the developers.
Therefore, she is definitely no less knowledgeable than the doctor in terms of Gigantamax research, but this identity has always been covered up by the title of "Secretary Luo Zi".
And even if we ignore Olivia's achievements in this area, her power within the Marrocomon Group is greater than it appears on the surface, and much greater.
Although theoretically Roz is her superior, in reality, most departments in Marrokomon have to report information to her...
This means that as long as Olivia wants, she can secretly manipulate the direction of certain things or conceal certain things.
And after the whole process is over, Roz might not even notice any problem at all, and was deceived by Olivia from beginning to end.
Of course, Roz could have investigated without going through Olivia.
But the premise of all this is that Roz must know what to ask.
If he didn't even know what Olivia was hiding from him, he wouldn't know who to ask for confirmation, let alone how to ask.
No matter how much authority Roz has, he can't do such a thing.
Besides, some things cannot be checked.
What if something is really found out?
Therefore, if Olivia really betrayed Roz, he would definitely suffer a loss even if Roz was the one in power in Marrokomon.
Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult to do this, or even almost impossible.
It's clear to everyone that Olivia is Roz's biggest fan.
Anyone could betray Roz, but Olivia would definitely not look good.
However... Zi Yu had other ideas about this.
Loyalty can sometimes turn into an opportunity for betrayal.
He stopped stirring the cup and slightly raised the corner of his mouth towards the OL woman in front of him.
"So? Have you thought about it?"
"Or, even now, you still have hope for your President Roz?"
"As a Pokémon researcher, you should be well aware of what it means for the Alliance to arbitrarily utilize an uncontrollable Level 1 God, right?"
Zi Yu picked up the cup and took a sip of the liquid.
"Furthermore, the person your Guild Leader, Luo Zi, provoked wasn't some lowly First-Class God, but a ceiling-level being like Wujitai."
"With all due respect, by that time, the Alliance wouldn't even need to take action. The aftermath of Wujitai alone would be enough to send Ross to the gallows."
Zi Yu did not lie.
Although the Pokémon world is a world very similar to utopia, the Pokémon League has very severe penalties for the unauthorized use and capture of uncontrollable first-level gods.
Moreover, the greater the influence caused by those first-level gods who were exploited, the heavier the punishment would be after the criminals were arrested.
A major event like Mugen Tail's loss of control, which could potentially wipe the Galar region off the map, is definitely enough to strangle Ross 114514 times.
However, Olivia was not scared by Zi Yu, because she didn't think that what Zi Yu said would definitely happen.
Yes, she believed in Roz and believed that Roz could handle everything properly.
As for the basis for her belief in Roz...is that kind of thing important?
Believe it, there is no need for a reason to believe! Olivia has always believed in Luo Zi unconditionally.
“The president will take care of everything, and that Pokémon hasn’t escaped containment yet.
"Even if it does escape, the president already has a way to deal with it."
"Is it really?"
There was a hint of mockery in Zi Yu's words.
"Actually, you guys can't suppress Wuji Taina for much longer, right?"
"I even dare to conclude that within the next six months, Wuji Taina in Quanguan City will definitely get out of control."
"And there's no way that the Dantei and other Pokémon Trainers you prepared for this will be able to stop it."
“Even if you add them all up, it’s the same.”
Zi Yu's tone was extremely firm, as if he was not making a guess but simply stating a fact.
"Why do you think so? You really underestimate the power of the Dan Emperor."
Olivia frowned deeply.
She didn't think that what Zi Yu said just now was all nonsense. The fact that Zi Yu could accurately mention the address "Quanguan City" could explain a lot of problems.
Although everyone knows that Quanguan City is Galar's energy city, very few people, even in Marlokomon, know that the Eternal Tail is there.
But what Zi Yu said was too "defeatist".
She didn't think that the Dan Emperor didn't have the strength to compete with a first-level god.
Even though Zi Yu kept emphasizing that Wujitai was stronger than the average first-level god, she didn't think Dan Di would lose.
The strength of the Dan Emperor has long been deeply rooted in their hearts.
However, Zi Yu laughed again at this.
This time his smile was no longer a kind smile, but a glaring sneer.
"I don't think I underestimated Dan Di, but you underestimated Wuji Taina."
"Then let me ask you, have you ever seen Wujitai's true appearance?"
"What does it really look like?"
Olivia seemed a little confused.
As one of the researchers of Mugen Taina, Olivia had certainly seen Mugen Taina in person and had roughly assessed his strength.
But... she didn't find that Wujitai had the so-called second form or the "true appearance" that Zi Yu mentioned.
Although there have been some speculations in the past, they have never been able to successfully confirm those speculations.
"Yes, don't you find it strange?"
"All Pokémon can Dynamax, and some can even Gigantamax. How could it be that the source of Dynamax, Eterna, doesn't have a similar ability?"
"..."
Olivia neither refuted nor agreed with Zi Yu's words. She just pursed her lips and sat there quietly.
Of course she understood what Zi Yu said.
In fact, she had had similar guesses a long time ago, but later she gave up the idea because she didn't find anything.
But now it seems... Could it be that she missed something?
"Whether you believe it or not is irrelevant. What I can tell you is that the Infinite Taina not only possesses similar abilities, but is also far more terrifying than the so-called Gigantamax."
"There's no need for a so-called energy source, nor any Gigantamax bracelet. As long as the Infinite Taina completely unleashes its own power, it can undergo Gigantamaxing, instantly increasing its strength by more than two times."
"Its size will be magnified countless times, and its image will become more like a giant snake coiling in the air."
"Only when Mugen Taina is in this state can he be called 'Dark Night'."
"The sky will be obscured, darkness will continue with the long night, all wishing stars and Dynamax energy will become the driving force of the Infinite, and finally be assimilated into the seeds of destruction of all Galar."
"As for your fate..."
"I think it will probably be moved to the History Museum, along with your map of Galar."
Zi Yu said this and sneered at Olivia twice.
"I wouldn't mind supporting you then. After all, I've been to Galar before, so I can be considered a witness to history."
"Is it really as serious as you say?"
Now Olivia was also a little surprised and confused.
In fact, if Zi Yu put the conclusion in front of her without any basis, she would basically not believe it.
But the problem is...Olivia knew that what Zi Yu said actually had a lot of truth to it.
Olivia had studied the Eternal Tana and its legends, and knew very well what the characteristics of the Dark Night were. Coincidentally, the information about the Eternal Tana that Zi Yu had just mentioned was very similar to it.
Originally, Olivia thought that Wujitai's appearance had changed over a long period of time, but now it seems that this is not the case.
What's even worse is that the legend mentioned that "Dark Night" was eventually defeated by the sword and shield, but where can they find the so-called sword and shield now?
They didn't even know what the sword and shield referred to. Was it the Shield Blade Monster?
Does the Shield Sword Monster have that kind of power?
"It's more serious than you think, and it's much more serious."
"A Gigantamaxed Gigantamax is an opponent that normal Pokémon Trainers can never defeat. In ancient times, it was also put into a deep sleep by Deus Ex Machina."
"Then... what are you planning to do by telling me all this? Even if we knew this, it wouldn't be of any use, would it?"
Olivia became increasingly confused and uncertain.
She originally knew that matters involving a first-level god were not simple, but she really never thought that it would come to this.
If what Zi Yu said was true, then she and Luo Zi behind her were actually in a desperate situation at this moment.
Save Galar?
Ha! I’m afraid they can’t even protect themselves.
Once this matter is exposed to other alliances, it is hard to imagine how alliances in other regions will react.
I'm afraid they'll have to start a global manhunt.
"Because I can save you."
"Although it's inevitable that Wujitana will escape, we just need to deal with it as soon as possible while it's still trapped."
"While Ross will inevitably face some imprisonment, considering that Evertina didn't cause much harm to Galar, his punishment won't be too severe."
"So, do you understand what I mean?"
Zi Yu drank the remaining coffee in one gulp, but then he frowned because of the overly sticky taste.
Olivia naturally didn't care what Zi Yu thought of the coffee in this coffee shop. She just kept staring at Zi Yu's face.
