Journey Towards Greatness

As all the papers were signed, it was time for Julian to pick a name for his faction, he has not thought about it much but he understands that a name is very important for a faction, a name is the first thing someone hears about a faction and it needs to be good and should sound cool for people to take them seriously.

He thought about it for a while before finally naming it. ​​

Julian "How about Omni Guardians?"

He asked while looking at Cynthia.

Cynthia "It sounds really good, Omni Guardians it has a really imposing character to it"

She said and nodded her head with a smile.

Charles "Hahahahaha, good, Omni Guardians it is then, now there is only one thing to do and we will let you handle it, young Julian"

He said with a big smile on his face.

Julian "So where are they being kept?"

He asked.

When he entered the League Headquarters he noticed that everything was very simple down there, the staff were working and doing their jobs, it wouldn't be possible if the league is keeping prisoners inside the headquarters.

With so many guards being arrested by the league, there will be a tension in the air, these people are just staff members, they would get intimidated by the huge number of criminals being held right inside the same building that they are staying in.

So Julian figured out that they are probably not here.

Charles "Haha, looks like you noticed, the Elite Guards are not here, they were sent in one of our secret facilities in this city, don't worry it won't take long for you to get there, I will give you the location, you can go there and talk to them"

He said and then passed a gold badge to Julian/

Charles "When you reach the place, show this badge to the person sitting in the counter, he will take you to them"

He said and smiled.

Julian understood and nodded his head and took the badge, the badge had a big L engraved on it, this badge seems to be some kind of special object that is used by the main members of the league.

Charles soon gave Julian the address of the secret place where the Elite Guards are currently being held, Julian bid his farewell to Charles and headed directly to the place where the guards are currently held, Cynthia also followed him there.

It didn't take long before Julian and Cynthia reached the place where the map is showing them, but when they look at what is in front of them, they are surprised, even Cynthia doesn't know what is going on.

They saw a small noodle shop in front of them, it looks very old, the wooden walls of this shop are covered with dirt and there are even some plants growing around.

Julian looked at Cynthia for answers as she is the Champion of this region but he saw the same clueless look on her face as well.

He decided to check it out but before he walked in he took out his mask, he hasn't used it for quite a while now, he then removed his coat and wore it inside-out, the color now is even darker than before, he pushed his hair back and completely transformed.

The legendary trainer is back, seeing this change Cynthia chuckled, the mask he is wearing is very big so people cannot figure out his facial structure at all, and he even changed his hairstyle.

Julian "Why are you laughing?"

He asked.

Cynthia "When you put that on, you look like a completely different person"

She said.

Julian "Well, that's the point of it, Ok let's go in"

He said and walked into the noodle shop, as he walked in he saw a middle-aged man sleeping on the counter as he had no customers, Julian walked in front of him and called him but the man didn't wake up.

He then knocked on the counter but the man still didn't wake up, he called again but it was of no use.

Julian [Gengar]

Hearing Julian Gengar did his iconic laugh and appeared right below the chair where the man has his butt placed, Gengar covered his laughter with one hand and suddenly pinched one of the butt cheeks of the man sleeping.

The man screamed and jumped up and finally woke up, he looked around and saw Julian, he felt a stinging pain on his butt cheek but he couldn't explain why he is in pain right now, he saw a man in a mask and Cynthia but he realized that they couldn't do it.

'Must be an insect'

He thought and lazily looked at the man in the mask again.

"What do you want?"

He asked as he yawned, he didn't even cover his mouth while doing so, seeing this Cynthia frowned and started to have second thoughts about this shop, there was no way this shop could belong to the league and the shop seems so small from the inside as well.

Julian didn't say anything and slid the gold badge that Charles gave him.

When the man saw the badge he suddenly changed his behavior and got serious, he gave the badge back to Julian and placed his hand under the desk, it is as if he is trying to press a button and that is exactly what he did.

As soon as he pressed the button the wall behind him started to shake a little and suddenly opened up widely revealing an underground pathway through the stairs, this pathway is well lit by lights so it is not dark at all.

Julian and Cynthia looked at this pathway and nodded their head realizing that this is really the place they were meant to come.

The man then told both of them to follow him into the pathway, as then entered the door behind them closed completely.

Julian 'An underground facility and even Cynthia didn't know about it, the League has a lot of secrets of its own as well'

He thought and continued walking down the stairs.
