Chapter 361: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [361]
Hearing Luo Yuan's words, Lillie's face lit up with joy.
Doesn't this mean that Mother might have been kept in the dark and didn't know about what was happening in Aether Paradise?
The thought immediately lifted the weight that had been pressing on her heart for days.
Watching Lillie's sudden excitement, Luo Yuan could easily guess what she was thinking.
Unfortunately, you're destined to be disappointed, he thought.
While Lusamine may not have known about the attack on Lillie by Nihilego, she was very much aware of—and actively involved in—researching Ultra Beasts.
But Luo Yuan had no intention of shattering Lillie's newfound optimism.
Sometimes, ignorance really was bliss.
"So, are we going to Aether Paradise now?" Lillie asked eagerly.
"Not just yet," Luo Yuan replied calmly. "The timing isn't right."
What he didn't mention was that Team Rocket's preparations were still incomplete. Confronting Lusamine now would be premature.
