Chapter 450 Leaving the Reversed World

"Gulu~"

Zhang Heng swallowed hard, then tried his best to steady his trembling legs, and did not forget to use the power of the dragon to contact Zekrom and suppress its urge to attack.

“Giratina, your power to control the Reverse World is awe-inspiring. Your responsibility to protect the balance between the two worlds has led many humans in this world to regard you as a god who safeguards peace.”

Zhang Heng's voice, tinged with the viscous energy of a reversed world, was clear in every word.

"But that's precisely why I can't understand it—with your insight, why are you so certain that Dorgonmesia was abducted?"

The ferocity in Giratina's blood-red eyes materialized, and the energy waves formed by dark matter surged continuously in the Reversed World, but suddenly stopped half a meter away from Zhang Heng's face.

"Woo~"

Dorromesia frantically blocked his way, its butterfly-shaped tail glowing blue, colliding with Giratina's oppressive aura and creating tiny sparks of electricity.

It seems that Doromecia can also communicate with the antimatter energy in this world, helping Zhang Heng withstand many waves of antimatter energy.

"Weak human, do not try to confuse the world with your words!" Giratina's roar cracked the space around him. "The duty of a divine messenger is to find a compatible one, but you are not! You forcibly abducted it!"

"Forced abduction?" Zhang Heng suddenly laughed, reaching out to gently grasp the trembling, illusory body of Dorgonmesia, calming its tension.

"Do you know what it faced when it first hatched?" Zhang Heng's voice trembled slightly because he was actually a little scared, but he could say he had a clear conscience.

"If it weren't for my appearance, Dorgonmesia would have been captured and taken away by those who threaten the balance of the world as soon as it hatched. I don't think I did anything wrong!"

The current in the Czech Rom Dragon Horn suddenly surged, swirling around Zhang Heng as if resisting the pressure from Giratina.

“Pluto Dragon, Zhang Heng is my soulmate, an ideal person, not the evil person you asserted he is. Doron Messiah’s aura is also extremely pure, not like someone who has been harmed or bewitched.”

Giratina's six wings folded slightly, and the dark purple mist stopped churning, but it still stared intently at Zhang Heng.

Facing that oppressive gaze, Zhang Heng continued, "You protect the order, but order shouldn't be based on blind suspicion. Doronmesia is with me because we've been through life and death together—we've protected its safety and witnessed its growth."

The Reversed World fell into an eerie silence, with only the rapid breathing of Dorgon Messiah clearly audible.

Giratina remained silent for a long time before suddenly leaning down, his blood-red eyes almost touching Zhang Heng's face.

Zhang Heng resisted the urge to back away, letting the aura of the divine beast spray onto his face.

Giratina then shifted its gaze from Zhang Heng. It had been observing this human from another world for a long time and had witnessed his growth. At times, their thoughts even aligned to a certain extent.

"Open your mind." Giratina's voice carried an undeniable pressure.

Lightning suddenly erupted from between the horns of the Czech Rom Dragon, enveloping it like a wild dance of purple lightning, and the burst of current scorched black cracks into the nearby dark matter ground.

Its wings spread wide, and with each tremor, ripples spread across the space of the inverted world. The lightning power wrapped around its tail tip evaporated the surrounding mist into fine white smoke.

"Giratina! You have ignored my warnings time and time again!" The legendary Pokémon roared with the power of thunder, causing fine stardust to seep from the spatial rifts. "Even if you rule the Reverse World, you have no right to judge living beings based on mere conjecture!"

Zhang Heng staggered to his feet, ignoring the blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, and raised his hand, saying, "Wait! I believe he will make his own decision."

Zhang Heng gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with determination as he looked at the imposing Giratina ahead.

A chilling, bone-piercing force, like a venomous snake, burrowed into his brow.

His consciousness became entangled with Giratina's in an instant, as if he were being drawn into a vortex of time and space, and the surrounding scenery rapidly receded like a shattered mirror.

The dark purple light carried both of their consciousnesses, causing them to plummet rapidly into the abyss of consciousness. A sharp whistling sound rang in their ears, like the wails of a million souls.

"Uh..." Zhang Heng's temples throbbed, and a strong feeling of dizziness surged over him like a tide.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Heng finally touched solid ground in the haze of consciousness. He shook his throbbing head, barely opened his eyes, and found himself in a strange space of consciousness.

His memories floated around him, like fragments drifting in the air.

"Human from another world, what is your purpose in coming to this world?"

In this space, Zhang Heng could not see Giratina, but Giratina's voice, like that of a judge, questioned Zhang Heng with undeniable pressure.

Zhang Heng recalled that the scene was just like the first time he met Zekrom, but Zekrom was not so aggressive, and his question was only about Zhang Heng's ideals.

The current situation is different. If Zhang Heng does not answer well, the god who maintains the main world and the reverse world will not hesitate to annihilate him in this consciousness.

A dryness rose in his throat, but Zhang Heng forced himself to look up and speak in the direction the voice came from: "I never imagined I would travel here."

His consciousness stirred fragments of memory, bringing to light the shattered scenes of time and space he had traveled through. "But since fate has thrown me into this world, I want to be a part of it."

"I love this world with Pokémon; it's the place I've always dreamed of."

The space fell silent again, but Zhang Heng knew that the oppressive force pressing down on him had not lessened in the slightest.

"Such idealistic remarks, no wonder they were recognized by Czechoslovakia, but in my eyes they are so opportunistic."

Zhang Heng's breathing became increasingly rapid, and his consciousness began to sway. He suddenly reached out and grabbed a fragment of memory beside him.

“I admit I’m idealistic. But I’ve never lost sight of my principles! Jekrom chose me because I believe that true idealism is not about suppressing everything with force, but about protecting the right of every life to choose!”

Giratina remained silent for a long time before suddenly withdrawing its oppressive aura, its illusory form gradually dissipating: "You are a human from another world. I have been monitoring you since you arrived in this world. Your actions are correct to some extent, but I cannot be sure whether you pose a threat to this world."

Zhang Heng was shocked. He never expected that the legendary Pokémon in the Pokémon world had such a deep understanding of the rules of this world that even he, a person who had transmigrated from another world, had already been locked down.

Giratina continued, "You and that Water-type legendary Pokémon from another timeline—I sense something different about you both. This makes me uneasy, makes me feel the uncertainty surrounding the existence of this world, so I will keep a close eye on you..."

Just then, from outside the consciousness space came the rippling water and the anxious roar of the martial arts bear master.

Amidst Zekrom's furious roar: "Giratina! If you harm him, I will turn this inverted world upside down!"

With a roar from Zekrom, Zhang Heng's figure vanished from the reversed world, silently returning to the beach.
