>”Attcius-dono! Get a hold of yo…”
>Nemo:”Hold on!”

>”Attcus-dono has lost consciousness right?”
>!marv:”Indeed! I have to nurse him back….”

>Nemo:”Just now, when it looked like Letty lost consciousness Atticus-dono said [I won] right?”

>"Look!"

>”Letty is still conscious! And she can still fight!”

>”The boss himself decided that if the trainer themselves lose conscious than the opponent wins so,”
>”Letty won the boss battle then right?”
page 6
>GruntA:”Certainly…”
>GruntB:”Yeah, the star mobile is busted as well…”
>GruntC:”Eitherway it’s not as if the battle can continue if the trainer faints right?”

>!Marv:”Atticus-dono!”
>Atticus:”Thi-this is my loss…”

>”Violet-dono, forgive my discourtesy."
>”I will now perform the detoxification jutsu.”

>”Do not fret. this is for when humans are stricken by a pokemon’s poison an antidote for humans so to speak.”
sfx:”shah”
>”I also used this when I nursed you two back to health last time.”

>Nemo:”Wow! So stuff like this exists.”
>”Ms.Poison’s mark of….”

>Clive:”It means that it’s a remedy made by an authority on poison from another region.”
>”By the way Nemona, where are my glasses?”

>Nemo:”ah, my bad!”

>Atticus:”Once the boss loses a raid then his destiny is to be banished from the hideout.”
>”I will accept this fate and leave this place .”

>Clive:”Atticus, I want to hear you out before I leave.”
>!marv:”Clive-dono, there is no one over there.”
>Atticus:”Eventhough he isn’t afflicted by my jutsu it seems like he isn’t able to see nearby things as well.”
>Nemo:”It’s because I held on the glasses too hard…”

>Clive:”I want to know all the details.”
>”What is Operation Star exactly?”

>Atticus:”Who art thou?”
>!marv:”Clive-dono is a student from the academy that is investigating the circumstances around Team Star.”


page 8
>Clive:”because members of team star keep skipping school longterm, are a nuisance in and out of the academy and exhibit bad behavior, ”
>”they either have to disband or get expelled.”
>Atticus:”indeed”

>Clive:”From what I found out so far,”
>”All the bosses are waiting for a reply from the big boss AKA team star’s founder after trying to consult them or at least that’s what I was told.”
>Atticus:”it’s exactly as you described.”

>Clive:”I want to know more about this Operation Star.”
>”Just now some of the members said that the current team star is just like the academy before Operation Star.”

>Atticus:”Operation star was the starting signal for the weak that were persecuted to rise up so to speak.”
>”No, rather than a starting signal it was a flashy firework that marked the end.”


page 9
>“It might even be a firework that misfired.”
>Clive:”Firework that misfired?”

>”Could it be that Operation Star was launching a surprise attack on the school riding a flashy machine and rout out all the teachers and students?”

>!Marv:”No that’s not it!”

>”They never even brought out the flashy machine, all the teachers and students ran of on their own.”
>Clive:”What do you mean, Youssef?”

>!marv:”I don’t know all the details.”
>”For I didn’t have the courage to join team star….”

>”I just wanted to immerse myself in my hobby with Atticus-dono without any reserves.”


page 10
>”All I know is that it is because of Operation Star that Uva academy,”
>”Became a place where you can freely live in peace without getting bullied or made fun of for your peculiarities. ”

>”Ironically… Despite being the one who set everything in motion Atticus-dono got spurned by the academy for being one of the ring leaders of team star and its members that started the uproar.

>”I was tormented by regret for abandoning my compadres,”
>”But feeling the change in the academy I started to think that maybe the members from Team Star could come back. So I started frequenting the base in the hopes I could convey this to them.”

>”However the star members from that time who wanted to become hoodlums that everyone was afraid of obstructed me and literally shut the door in my face…”

>”During my tireless pursuit I came across the safe house made by the members who deserted the base and came to know them and as I did I started to get along with them.”

>”There are even a few members who secretly attend school…”
>Clive:”What! Is that true!?”


page 11
>Grunt:”Youssef-kun…”
>Grunt:”We told you to make sure that the boss wouldn’t find out….”

>!marv:”My-my apologies!”

>Atticus:”hahaha, I’m not the boss anymore.”

>”Besides… being in this hideout became suffocating at some point.”

>”That’s why I kinda feel relieved that someone raided us.”

>Letty:”You say that now after gleefully making me suffer like that?”

>Atticus:”That is…,”
>”It’s because I always got made fun of and bullied. So I got carried away by my emotions…”
>Letty:”Stop always playing the victim.”

>”Was it fun bringing your opponent down after thinking for so long that you were powerless?”
>“If you keep using your past as an excuse to indulge in that kind of fun then, ”
>”One day you’ll be just as bad as the bunch that bullied you.”

page 12
>Attcicus:”Me…”
>“Become one of the bullies….”

>Nemo:”Are you going already, Letty?”
>Letty:”I completed my commission. I have no reason to stay here any longer.”

>Nemo:”But I haven’t finished the star barrage yet…”
>Letty:”That is none of my concern.”

>Nemo:”I wonder if they’ll let me do the star barrage if the members decide to remain at the hideout.”
>”Something like a casual star barrage without all the rules surrounding the raid…”

>Clive:”Letty”
>“Did Violet go from being called ‘Prince’ to having a nickname based on the ‘let’ part of his name because they grew closer? I wonder.”

>”Atticus, Hironobu I had a few more questions regarding Operation Stat….”

>Nemo:”What do you wanna do next, Letty?”
>Letty:”I want to look around the watchtower in west Paldea area 3 we just passed through.”

>Raif:”Is this Scarlet? It's Raifort.”

>Raif:”There is something I had to tell you ASAP.”
>Letty:”Do you have new info? If so, I'll head straight to the academy.”

>Raif:”No, that’s not a good idea at the moment. I’ll head over to you. Where are you right now?”
>Letty:”I’m heading towards the watchtower in west Paldea Area 3”

>Raif:”Ok, let’s meet up there.”

>””uhm… right now is….. I am currently with a friend…”
>”Uhm, I currently have stuff to do with my friend, so is it okay… if we come together?”

>Geeta:”THis friend you’re talking about… is it Letty perhaps?”
>Nemo:”Huh!? You know about Letty?”

>Geeta:”This is for champion ranked trainers only.”
>”Please make sure you come along.”
>phone:”beep”


page 15
>Letty:”Go on ahead,”
>Nemo:”But…”

>Nemo:”Both you and Atticus, why is it that you two keep letting things like best friends and compadres distract you from your own goals?”

>”Does the title of champion mean so little to you?”
>Nemo:”uuuuuurgh!”

>”Don’t do anything bad! It is ABSOLUTELY forbidden, okay!!”
>”If you’re gonna leave the watchtower you ABSOLUTELY have to tell me where you’re heading neeeeext!!”

>Rotom:”About that…”

>”Around the time I wanted to make a reservation, an emergency came up and the head chef is absent now.”
>Arven:”Aw man again!”

>”Hmm?”


page 17
>”Wasn’t the owner and head chef Kofu also the cascaraffe gym leader?”
>Rotom:”What about it?”

>Arven:”To borrow Larry-san’s words, taking measures to prevent anything bad happening around your jurisdiction is also part of a gym leader’s duties.”

>”If there has been a missing person report made around his hometown,”
>”There is no way that a gym leader would stand by and do nothing right?”

>Box:”kofu lounge”

>Arven:”You lost contact with Kofu-shi!?”

>Worker:”We got a call from the treasure eatery about their worker who hasn’t come back from buying ingredients, so”

>”I wonder where he is and what he is doing right now”

>”According to the GPS the treasure eatery worker, ”
>”Currently hasn’t moved an inch from the colonnade hollow which is located at the northern end of the asado desert.”

>Rotom:”Even if we are talking about a titan pokemon,”
>:”I find it hard to believe a gym leader would just sit still when it attacks.”

>Prince:”Perhaps some unforeseen circumstances occurred.”
>Arven:”Alright, let’s go!”
