Caroline didn't hesitate much. She raised her head and swallowed the pill after taking it.
Roy was startled when he saw this.
Was the queen really so easily willing to take unknown dicine?
Should he tell Elite Carter that he needed to teach his daughter the truth that dicine shouldn't be taken carelessly?
But Roy also knew that just as this pill had no harmful effects, it also had no powerful benefits either.
It could only help people regain their clarity for a short period of ti.
This was very suitable for headaches caused by psychic depletion after excessive use of psychic powers, as well as symptoms of ntal exhaustion.
However, the duration of this dicinal effect was also very short—it could only last for thirty minutes.
Soon, the coldness in Caroline's eyes gradually dissipated, and her hands, which had been clutching her head, slowly relaxed.
It was just that those previously calm eyes were still bloodshot, making her look sowhat imposing.
"How do you feel? Are you better now?"
Caroline nodded, with a curve appearing on her lips that Roy had rarely seen before.
"I won."
Roy was taken aback for a mont, never expecting that the first words Caroline would say to him were these.
Roy looked at Caroline, who rarely showed such childish emotions, and couldn't help but smile.
Could this be the sa as when she was at the Altar of the Sunne before—was she praising herself?
Thinking this, Roy nodded with a smile.
"That's amazing. You even defeated Kommo-o."
"That makes you the Island Kahuna of this island trial."
Hearing Roy's words, Caroline smiled even more happily, and even Gardevoir beside her seed to be in a very good mood.
The anxious atmosphere from just monts ago gradually dissipated.
"Thank you."
Suddenly there were rustling sounds behind them, causing Lucario to narrow its eyes and turn around quickly.
It faced the dense woods.
However, Mimikyu, who had been perched on Roy's shoulder, showed no interest and even let out a yawn.
The power of Aura didn't reveal any dangerous presence.
Well, whoever was approaching shouldn't have any malicious intentions.
The mont this thought appeared in Roy's mind, he saw a bald head suddenly pop up from the woods...
Ah, no—Master Amora's head popped up from the woods.
Takeshi Aihara and Henry followed behind him. It seed the three of them had traveled all the way here together.
"Huh? The battle's already over?"
"How rare that we rushed here in such a hurry."
Takeshi Aihara looked left and right, then glanced at Kommo-o, who had closed its eyes not far away and was completely unwilling to acknowledge anyone else.
Takeshi Aihara nudged Roy with his right elbow.
"Hey, that's the Totem Pokémon from lele Island, right? What was the trial mission?"
Both Henry and Master Amora looked at Roy with interested expressions.
The three of them looked as if Roy had completed this trial task and beco an Island Kahuna.
Roy quickly waved his hands—he couldn't claim soone else's achievent.
"No, no. The one who completed the trial is Senior Caroline."
"The trial mission was to defeat Kommo-o."
When they heard about this absurdly difficult trial mission, all three of them gasped in unison.
Setting aside the other trial-takers, the three of them had been present when they entered the Altar of the Sunne together back then.
Although they had been dazed by loetta's singing at the ti...
Ahem, let's not talk about that first.
But after seeing the injuries on everyone's bodies and the ruined state of the Altar of the Sunne afterward, everyone knew this was the handiwork of the Elite-level Pokémon, Kommo-o.
This was why, when they heard that Roy had co to undertake a trial involving Kommo-o, they quickly transford from lazy spectators into eager sharks and rushed all the way here to watch the excitent.
But their speed hadn't been fast enough, and by the ti they reached lele Island, the battle was already over.
After seeing the scenic attraction known as "Avi's Defeat," they hurried inside.
Unexpectedly, it was Caroline who had completed the trial!
The eyes of all three of them imdiately focused on Caroline.
Even now, the white clothes on Caroline's body were covered with dust and had beco dirty.
But still, no one dared to underestimate the true Psychic Queen.
The three of them weren't very familiar with Caroline. Even though Henry was Caroline's junior, he still held so respect for her.
Master Amora, being slightly older, was the first to recover and congratulated Caroline.
"Congratulations."
Caroline also nodded slightly, and the expressionless look returned to her face.
Her voice was cold and emotionless.
"Thank you."
It was no different from what she had said to Roy earlier, but it felt sowhat distant to normal people.
When the three of them recalled this incident to Roy later, Roy also scratched his head in confusion.
"...Is there a difference? I don't see one."
But Roy didn't know about these things yet, and the matter at hand wasn't about exchanging pleasantries—it was that Caroline's physical condition still wasn't even close to good.
They needed to hurry to Tapu Lele and seek its help.
Roy shared his thoughts with the other three, and they all said they could go to Akala Island with Roy to find Tapu Lele.
There was no expression of rejection or acceptance on Caroline's face, while Gardevoir beside her expressed gratitude to them.
As they prepared to leave, Roy deliberately walked at the back.
One second before leaving, he looked back on purpose, just in ti to see Kommo-o nestling on the tattered grass.
But one difference was that one of Kommo-o's eyes was slightly open, looking in Roy's direction.
Roy smiled knowingly—Kommo-o was waiting for him.
So halfway there, Roy said that he had left sothing behind and asked Blastoise to take the others to the beach first to wait for him.
"I'll be right there."
"Hey, hurry up then."
Henry looked at Roy's retreating back and called out, then muttered again.
"Why are you so scatterbrained despite being so big?"
He sounded like a worried mother. He was probably often scolded like this at ho.
The four continued walking, following behind Blastoise.
Caroline seed to sense sothing and turned her head to look in the direction Roy had left, but all she saw was an empty path, so she looked away again.
It had to be said that psychics always possessed an unexpected intuition about certain things.
Especially when this psychic was also a woman—her intuition instantly soared to maximum level.
Roy kept his steady pace, and the closer he got, the more Kommo-o's figure stood upright, looking in Roy's direction with piercing eyes.
