Chapter 263 Lusamine: Wei Xin is truly a stunner!
Lusamine's situation is not ideal.
"In short, your mother's body has been eroded by neurotoxins. The rest of her body is normal, but her brain has been affected," the doctor said.
"What exactly are the effects?" Gladio asked worriedly.
"Simply put, although her spirit was protected and compensated by some forces, her brain underwent some changes that are difficult for modern medicine to explore due to the feedback from the changes in her body. Ultimately, these changes may affect her spirit, memory, and thinking. However, in theory, as long as she is well cared for, it will not have a significant impact on her life."
"I understand. May I see my mother?"
"Okay." The doctor opened the door.
Lusamine sat on the hospital bed, dressed in white. Hearing the noise, she turned her head and saw the person standing at the door.
"Gladio?"
Gladio breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that his mother still remembered his name.
"Mother, do you still remember Lillie?"
"Of course, Lillie is my daughter, and you are my son."
Gladgio stood in the ward, staring at his mother's pale face. Several times he wanted to speak but stopped, not knowing how to start. They hadn't had a normal conversation in a long time.
"By the way, Gladio, do you really like wearing women's clothes?"
Lusamine asked abruptly.
Gladio:
Why can't Nicholas Ito take his mother's memory with him?
After much explanation, Gladio finally convinced his mother that he didn't have any bad habits and that he was only wearing the clothes because it was a task he needed to complete.
After chatting for a while, the mother and son ran out of things to say, so Rosamund spoke up again: "Where is Wei Xin now?"
Gragio didn't understand why his mother would suddenly mention Wei Xin's name; he figured she was probably just asking about the whereabouts of her savior.
"He's right outside. Should I call him for you?"
"Yes, thank you." Rosamund said politely.
Grazio left the ward, and a short while later, Wei Xin pushed open the door with a blank expression.
As soon as I entered, I heard Lusamine's cold voice.
"Give me Xuwu Yide."
This woman really doesn't learn from any lessons.
"No!" Wei Xin refused sternly.
"Ultra Beasts are too dangerous; you are not capable of controlling them."
Wei Xin had made a decision: no matter what conditions Lusamine proposed, he would not hand over the Ultra Beast. However, Lusamine's answer shocked Wei Xin.
"Then forget it."
Forget it? Lusamine said forget it? Lusamine doesn't want Ultra Beasts anymore, is that reasonable?
It's like Steven suddenly saying one day that he doesn't like rocks, or Cynthia saying one day that she doesn't like Pokémon battles and mythology. Anyone familiar with them would react the same way.
"Tell me, where did you hide the real Rosamine?"
Wei Xin released the waveguide and found that Lusamine's waveguide was fine, without any impurities. It not only recovered very well, but was also very active.
"Was my answer really that surprising to you?" Lusamine asked rhetorically.
"More than surprised, it was downright terrifying!"
Wei Xin had already prepared for Lusamine to kneel before him, looking up and pleading, "Please, give me Xu Wu Yi De, I'll do anything."
After being rejected by himself, he kept repeating "Kugo Ito" under his breath, mentally preparing himself to fight the hospital cleaners for food with his knees.
"You seem to know me quite well. Did Gladion tell you? Never mind," Lusamine explained, "I'm fully aware of the dangers of Ultra Beasts, so I can forgo Nihilego and confront them—"
Lusamine turned her gaze to Wei Xin, her green pupils burning with a fervor and desire that surpassed even that of Niohuru Ido.
She clearly hated Wei Xin, and even once thought about finding an opportunity to have the Ether Foundation get rid of him and throw him into the sea in Alora.
But now, for some reason, from the moment she woke up and saw Wei Xin, she felt a strange flutter in her heart.
One can't help but sigh, Wei Xin is truly a rare beauty.
With a slim waist, slender legs, and a perky bottom, fair skin, a beautiful face, and a sharp mind, although she didn't like Wei Xin, she had to admit that Wei Xin possessed an irresistible allure. Seeing Wei Xin was like seeing an ultimate monster, making her heart itch and generating a primal urge.
He's like a pervert, a creep.
It had been many years since she had produced anything like this, and it excited her beyond measure.
Is it the effect of Nihilego? Lusamine doesn't know, nor does she care.
She really wants the guy in front of her right now, in every sense of the word.
I want it, I want it, I want it—
Want it at all costs.
"I want you!"
The intense heat of Rosamune's waveguide sent chills down Wei Xin's spine. Could Rosamune really be coming for me?
Did you damage your brain by hitting yourself?
He raised his hand, turned his head, pointed his index finger at the person, his gaze sharp, and warned, "Madam, please calm down."
"I am very calm."
"I don't think so."
"I didn't mean anything by it. It's just that when I was out of it, I vaguely heard someone complaining that my understanding of Ultra Beasts was less than his—by even a fraction!"
Lusamine emphasized the last two words.
She has devoted most of her life to Ultra Beasts, and theoretically, no one in the world knows more about Ultra Beasts than her.
But Wei Xin actually said he was no match for him at all—this is...
That's absolutely fantastic.
She wasn't a scholar, nor a PhD, and didn't care about academic status at all. She simply wanted to contain Ultra Beasts. Now that there was an expert more outstanding than herself in front of her, wasn't that a great thing?
If Wei Xin could be brought to the Ether Foundation, wouldn't her research and aspirations be easily fulfilled?
Wei Xin was slightly taken aback, recalling that he had indeed complained after defeating Xu Wu Yide, but so what? Wei Xin denied it, saying, "Sorry, you misheard me."
"But I also discovered that someone had previously sold me a portrait of the Gluttonous King for a million dollars."
Holy crap! Box!
So be it, Wei Xin is used to it.
"A family heirloom."
"Aren't you an orphan?"
If you keep swearing!
"That was picked up from the trash can. The final interpretation right belongs to the merchant. Once the goods leave the store, our store will not be responsible."
"Of course I won't ask you for a refund. A mere million is nothing to the Ether Foundation's daily expenses," Rosamune said with a smile, her gaze wandering over Wei Xin's body like an invisible hand. "I hope to hire you as an advisor to the Ether Foundation. You can name your salary."
"I don't lack money."
"You can name your price. As long as I have it, I can give you anything you want, no matter how outrageous it is, or even if it violates morality or the law. You know Alola is a small place, and the laws aren't as strict as in the East. If you like girls, I can find you lots of pretty girls. If you like Pokémon, I can get the Aether Foundation to spare no effort to find you the Pokémon you need and want."
Lusamine painted a lot of promises for Wei Xin, many of which, if the Alliance heard about, might immediately pull out their guns and riddle him with bullets.
"Stop, stop, stop! The hospital has surveillance cameras. If we keep talking, we might end up as cellmates in prison."
"Accomplice, that sounds good too. Even if we fall into hell, with you here, it won't be scary. Anyway, even if you disagree, I will continue my research on Ultra Beasts. The League can't do anything to us. You know, justice and cleanliness are two different things."
Wei Xin naturally knew what Lusamine was talking about. The League was not weak. If they were to enforce the law everywhere without stopping like he was, how could there be so many terrorist organizations like Team Rocket and Team Plasma? But the waters were too deep, and he didn't want to get involved.
He just wants to do what he likes and live his own good life, as long as others don't interfere with him or directly antagonize him.
Lusamine continued.
"As for the laws of the Eastern Empire, the Ether Foundation is not like other organizations; it would not be foolish enough to commit crimes in the Eastern Empire."
"In contrast, if you're willing to serve as an advisor, I can give you direct control over research on Ultra Beasts. Apart from me, you can command everyone in the Foundation to minimize the risks of the research. And another thing, research on Ultra Beasts isn't just my personal desire—"
"I know, it's just the Radiant God Necrozma."
He said it but Wei Xin knew that Necrozma was the number one Pokémon after Alpaca in the game's lore, and he was also troubled about how to deal with it.
"I knew you knew more about Ultra Beasts than I did," Lusamine said, her face beaming with delight. She was determined to take down Wei Xin at all costs. "If you're willing to help us, we'll support your other research, plans, and actions."
"Are you sure you can accept any conditions?" Wei Xin asked.
"Of course." Lusamine turned to the side, head held high, chest puffed out, and reached her hands behind her back to lift her hair. Strands of her platinum blonde hair fell loose, and her stunning figure cast an alluring silhouette against the white wall.
This is kind of exciting, Wei Xin swallowed.
"Any conditions are fine." Seeing that Wei Xin was somewhat tempted, Lusamine repeated in a seductive tone.
