Chapter 1148: Chapter 1365: Home For Dinner
Although he had obtained eternal life, paralysis was still paralysis. Julian took out a Cheri Berry from his pocket with trembling hands.
Seeing this, Gengar immediately tried to slip back into Julian's shadow. Half of its body had already disappeared inside when Julian grabbed its little tail and pulled it back out of the shadow as if yanking a radish from the ground.
"Gengar~"
Holding Gengar upside down so they were face to face, Julian said with a sinister smile, "Short-lived ghost, you'd better work hard."
"Gen~"
Gengar nodded "nervously."
It promised that it would become a First-class Legendary as soon as possible.
Gengar was currently a Peak Champion. Under normal circumstances, it would still need a great deal of time before reaching the First-class Legendary tier.
However, after White Kyurem defeated Yveltal earlier, it had extracted a portion of Yveltal's Death Origin Essence once again.
As long as Gengar completely absorbed that Death Origin Essence, the time it needed to become a First-class Legendary would be drastically reduced.
Of course, that was only on the condition that no other Gengar had become a First-class Legendary before Julian's Gengar.
If that position had already been occupied, Gengar would be unable to become a First-class Legendary.
And the only way would be to kill the one occupying the position, freeing it so that his own could become the new First-class Legendary.
"Good, as long as you know."
Julian nodded in satisfaction, and the moment he released his grip, Gengar melted into his shadow like a drop of water.

[Ding!]
[Hidden Mission Completed: Participate in the War of Gods, and emerge victorious.]
[Rewards: Invincibility Card (10 minutes), Rare Candy X3 (usable on Forbidden-class Pokémon), Unown Guidance Talismans X2.]
---
The System's voice suddenly rang out in Julian's mind, and a faint smile crept onto his face.
It really did give him exactly what he needed.
He had just been thinking that his greatest trump card—the Invincibility Card—had already been used.
Although he now had Hoopa, a mid-stage Forbidden-class Pokémon...
What if the next enemy he encountered was a Creator-class being? For example, Arceus.
In that case, Hoopa would be of little use.
Now that he had obtained another Invincibility Card, Julian felt like he was back in the game again.
As for the remaining two rewards...
The Forbidden-class Rare Candies could be given to either Hoopa or Mewtwo.
And the two Unown Guidance Talismans—they were exactly what Julian currently needed.
He was only missing two Unown now.
He immediately chose to use them, and very soon, the locations of the two remaining Unown appeared in his mind.
These two Unown were not together.
One was within a certain family in Drakoria, and the other was hidden within a Ruin that had yet to appear in the world.
As for that yet to appear Ruin, there was no telling when it would emerge.
Fortunately, Julian could afford to wait now.
As Metagross' period of invincibility came to an end, Julian glanced at Jirachi and little Hoopa, who were still "fighting" over his embrace, as well as Celebi, who was cheering Jirachi on from the sidelines.
"If you all don't have anything else to do, why don't you come to my house for a meal?"
Julian said to Rayquaza, Xerneas and Kyogre.
After all, these three had come at his request to help him.
As for Regigigas, that guy had already made its home at his place, so naturally it would be going back with him.
The three First-class Legendaries readily nodded in agreement. They all had an excellent impression of Julian now.
Rayquaza also wanted to ask Julian about that black Rayquaza.
As for Xerneas, after sharing its eternal life with Julian, its relationship with him had already become very close.
"Um... Can I come too?"
Just then, a timid voice rang out. Julian turned and saw Solgaleo looking at him expectantly.
Solgaleo realized that, throughout the entire battle, its greatest contribution had been helping Julian block a few waves of the battle's aftershocks.
After that, it had basically spent the rest of the fight standing around.
Compared to Rayquaza, Xerneas, Kyogre, and Regigigas, who had each fought First-class Legendary opponents, Solgaleo felt that it had really been assigned a very easy job.
"Of course."
Julian nodded. 'I almost forgot about it.'
After all, Solgaleo's presence throughout the battle had been rather low.
Not having thought of it sooner, Julian felt just as awkward as Solgaleo.
As the battle finally came to an end, people around the world erupted with excitement.

> "Hahaha! I knew Champion Walker could do it!"
> "Metagross is just way too awesome!"
> "Champion Walker has even captured Hoopa now. Doesn't that mean he can use Hoopa to summon all the First-class Legendaries Hoopa had already summoned before?!"
> "After shrinking down, Hoopa actually became this adorable! My maiden heart can't take it!"
> "Go, Jirachi! Defeat Hoopa and your position as the rightful lead will be secure!"
> "Champion Walker is still a scumbag as always. The moment he got Hoopa, Jirachi just dropped straight to the ground."
> "Jirachi, come into my arms instead!"
> "What were Champion Walker and Xerneas doing just now? It felt like Champion Walker just gained something huge."
---
People around the world were discussing the battle nonstop.
Although the War of the Gods had caused severe damage to some regions near East Africa due to the battle's aftershocks—even Drakoria had suffered a certain amount of damage—fortunately, the outcome had been a good one.
After inviting the Pokémon, Julian pulled out his phone and made a call.
Back at the Steel Guards headquarters, just as Julian's family was still celebrating and feeling proud of him, Love's phone suddenly rang.
Seeing that it was Julian calling, Love immediately answered.
"Dee~"
"Love, I'll be bringing a few friends over later. Prepare some good food."
"And... seeing as I just saved the world, can I have a second bottle of cola today?"
The dignified Champion Walker—the man who had stopped Hoopa and even captured it—now wore an ingratiating smile across his face.
Seeing this, little Hoopa instinctively asked, "Who's Love? Is she really that powerful?"
Taking advantage of the distraction, Jirachi landed a punch on Hoopa's face, then explained, "Do you think Metagross is strong?"
Remembering the overwhelming sense of helplessness it had experienced against Metagross, Hoopa nodded immediately. "Very strong."
"Then let me tell you this—Metagross doesn't even dare to raise its voice in front of Love."
"And there's another one just like Love at Julian's place."
Gasp!!
Hearing that, Hoopa sucked in countless breaths of cold air.
Metagross was already that terrifyingly strong, and yet Julian still had two beings even more powerful than it?
Now Hoopa felt immensely fortunate that it had already become a member of Julian's team.
If it had continued on its reckless, death-seeking path, the next one to step in would have been that even "mightier" Love.
"Dee~"
Love: "Just this once, then."
"Mm, mm, I knew Love is the best to me!"
Hearing those words, Love couldn't help smiling.
After hanging up the phone, Love suddenly noticed Tina staring at it with a resentful expression.
"Seriously... I'm that brat's mother. How come the first person he called wasn't me?!"
"Dee~"
Love said proudly: "The kindness of raising someone is greater than the kindness of giving birth."
Tina:(⊙o⊙)
