Chapter 350: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [350]
Lillie's hands trembled as she held the teacup, Luo Yuan's words sending a chill down her spine.
She felt like a helpless Mareep trapped in the jaws of a Mightyena, unsure whether to swallow the tea already in her mouth or spit it out.
Seeing Lillie's terrified expression, Sabrina shot Luo Yuan a pointed glare.
"Luo Yuan is teasing you," Sabrina reassured Lillie. "Our identities are real. You can verify them with Professor Kukui or Principal Samson Oak."
"Really?"
Lillie let out a sigh of relief, her tension easing. Just moments ago, she'd been on the verge of tears. Thankfully, it had only been a joke.
She didn't stop to consider that Sabrina's reassurance might have been a lie too—after all, neither of them had provided any actual proof.
Sigh, too trusting... Luo Yuan thought, resolving to use his role as a teacher to teach Lillie about the dangers of the world.
"Lillie, may I see it?" Luo Yuan asked, pointing to her bag.
Though hesitant at first, Lillie placed her bag on the table and opened it.
From within, a gaseous Pokémon with a shimmering blue body floated out, starlight glittering within its form. It drifted weightlessly above the table.
