Red Sun’s face had lost its ever-present, nonchalant expression.
The two ga-level Digimon could easily rival a 12th-floor contestant by themselves.
Just like a Magical Creature of C- Grade, equivalent to a 7th Floor Contestant in strength, was capable of matching the strength of a 9th Floor Contestant, the sa was true for Digimon as well.
For Beelzemon to not only admit fear, but also outright throw up his hands, ant that no matter how much relentless Red Sun was, it wouldn’t matter at all.
Two ga-level Digimon and his own Inheritance of Humanoid Typhoon combined might not allow him to survive even a few monts against the Space and Ti Legendary Pokemon.
And that... was concerning.
It wasn’t like Red Sun had to face off against Palkia and Dialga.
A Main Mission of that caliber would already be dood, no matter the tiline.
However, Red Sun wasn’t in this tiline for the Main Mission alone. He was here as a mber of the White Serpent Pirates and under the strict orders of Captain Red himself.
Captain Red had no intention of claiming the two Space and Ti Pokemon, but what he did want had absolutely everything to do with them.
For that, Red Sun would have no choice but to co face to face with at least one of the two Legendary Pokemon, if not both of them.
As Tonio and others began examining the weirdly distorted stony pillars, the scientist claiming them to be an effect of the disturbance in the spaceti continuum, Red Sun brought out his Mission Notification, as if trying to stumble upon so loophole.
At the sa ti, in the Unown Dinsion, the Avatars of two Half-Deep Ones again attacked each other with their strongest moves, causing another supernova and annihilating millions more Unown Pokemon.
The shockwaves of the destruction caused by Palkia and Dialga’s attacks seeped into the Pokemon Dinsion in the next mont.
Massive, mystical waves, distorting reality itself, shook the entire world.
The rumble and tremor were so powerful that they sent even Red Sun stumbling. The storyline characters had already fallen on the ground, their Pokemon shouting by their sides.
And then, it happened.
In front of the group, a path led into the forest.
Suddenly, all the shadows of trees falling onto that path shifted.
It was like there was a blurry, black fish made of shadow, swimming under the top layer of soil.
The atmosphere seed to darken instantly.
The wild Pokemon, lingering at the periphery of the forest, dashed deeper. A few of them instantly covered themselves up with the leaves and branches, as if trying to hide from a predator.
Gallade, one of the resident Pokemon near the Space-Ti Towers, jumped in front of everyone, sword-like protrusions drawing out from its elbows.
"What’s..." Ash said, standing up with everyone else. "... going on?!"
As if those words were a cue, all the squirming shadows gathered at a place on the path before they left the ground, taking the form of a dark figure.
Simultaneously, as all characters gasped, Red Sun’s gaze landed on the Mythical Pokemon through the dull gray color of the Notification.

Main Mission: Darkrai’s Nightmare
Mission Summary: Arceus, the Original One, is about to awaken, riling up Palkia and Dialga in their dinsions as a consequence.
Soon, the fight between the two Legendary Pokemon will engulf the entire world, crossing dinsions, and threatening the destruction of the spaceti continuum.
At the heart of this battle lay Alamos Town, its Space-Ti Towers, and the Mythical Pokemon — Darkrai!
Infiltrate the inner circle of Ash and his friends and subtly sabotage their plans once the main storyline events are about to reach a defining mont, before dealing a massive blow to Darkrai, weakening the Mythical Pokemon.
Mission Objective: Capture Darkrai just after the completion of storyline events
Mission Ti Limit: 6 months
Mission Grade: B

...
"Do not..." A dreamy, harsh voice penetrated all ears, making their eardrums buzz. "...co here... outsider."
Red Sun’s face instantly fell, a chill running down his spine.
First sentence, and the Mythical Pokemon had already diverged from the storyline events, recognizing his Contestant-status.
Red Sun gulped.
Darkrai’s cyan-glowing gaze wasn’t as demonic as Captain Red’s, but... the will they carried was almost the sa.
In lower-grade tilines, this wouldn’t have mattered.
But this was a tiline with B Overall Grade.
Which ant that, at least, this Darkrai was a Magical Creature of B Grade!
Which ant the Mythical Pokemon had enough strength to flatten any Contestant from even the 13th Floor... easily!
Red Sun already had doubts regarding this mission when Captain Red had assigned him the Mission, wounding his morale.
Beelzemon’s words rubbed a bucketful of salt over those wounds, then.
Now, with the Mythical Pokemon outright targeting him right after making an appearance, the little hope that had left in Red Sun’s heart also vanished, making his lips go dry.
And yet...
Red Sun had no choice.
In the back of his mind, he could hear the Emperor’s low chuckle.
Against Darkrai’s incontestable strength, Red Sun feared Captain’s chuckle even more.
Like poison countering the poison, the two fears brought a strange sense of peace in Red Sun’s heart, forcing him to take a deep breath to calm his nerves.
Darkrai’s eyes narrowed as the Pokemon fully ca out.
From behind Red Sun, Ash, Brock, Dawn, Tonio, Baron Alberto, and Alice ca forward too, shocked at the Mythical Pokemon’s appearance.
Whether he liked it or not, Red Sun realized that he was already in the thick of it.
Either this Mission would push him into the Billion Club, or, as Captain had said, he would... perish, losing everything... including his son.
The Five-Crowned Prince is my ladder to the top, Red Sun thought within, recounting the words he had told himself before joining the White Serpent Pirates. But... I must not forget that it is I who must climb the ladder myself. I cannot bla anyone else if my foot slips and I fall into oblivion. I can’t...
ShineGreymon laughed at that, the Digimon steeling his resolve along with his trainer.
Now I rember why I agreed to follow you, Beelzemon added, sensing Red Sun’s will, too.
Sadly, as the storyline events picked up the pace, with Baron Alberto commanding Lickilicky to attack Darkrai with a Hyper Beam, another problem had already appeared in the tiline, piling up on Red Sun’s buried, hopeless misery.
A 12th Floor Contestant from Quasi Cipher Pol —
— with an order to assassinate Red Sun!
