271 Chapter 8 Cynthia vs Elsa (1/2)

While following August to the clearing, the other boy who arrived with Cynthia and August while the group wait for August has introduced himself as Lucian.

After hearing his name, Alex remember a little about an elite four with Cynthia having the same name as this boy.

He is Lucian, future elite four psychic leader of Sinnoh Pokemon League.

He is a purple haired boy with glasses on. He also have purple eyes and Alex could feel the psychic energy in his eyes. It seems his psychic powers has changed the original eye colour to purple.

” So you are Alex Bart from Kanto, I heard so much about.” Lucian greeted Alex with these words.

Alex who is still unaware about his fame in the other regions scratched his head, completely confused and said, ” You know me?”

Lucian is surprised by the fact that he isn't aware about his fame.

Bill also was confused on his discovery. He asked his friend,” You don't know how popular you really are, do you Alex?”

” Am I really popular?” Alex asked them.

” You aren't popular among the common people and low level official of the league, but people who are at the top as well as the top trainers at least know about your existence.” Bill explained it to him.

” As for how I know who you are, I know that Cynthia is one of the strongest there is, yet the fact that you can subdue her especially when she is angry along with your age reveals your identity.” He said while looking at Alex's eyes deeply he continued,” After all, you are the one, who is the undisputed strongest trainer of this generation or so I heard from the others.”

Although Lucian said this, his tone showed he doesn't seem to believe those words and wished to confirm this.

Normally Alex would have no objections about a quick battle but the fact that he wishes to get a Togepi along with August's revelation of a possible future test made him vigilant.

He wants his pokemons to be in full health for the next upcoming test, so this battle can be averted for later.

Alex said,” If you wish to confirm whether this title is true or just an exaggeration you may have your battle, but it has to wait.

August needs me for something and I want to be at 100 per cent for that time. After that thing is settled, I will be ready for you.” Alex didn't seem affected by Julian ridiculing his title and anything.

He simply wishes for a proof and Alex can make sure that he gets his proof and make sure no one else will doubt his strength. It is also that Alex feels he doesn't want to lose in front of others especially in front of the recently met future champion Cynthia and the Almia princess Elsa.

” It seems we may have another battle at hand after they fight. it seems your battle maniac nature affects the people around you, Alex.” Aurea joked about Alex.

” Indeed. You should have seen his brother and sister, they have contest among themselves. When I asked them why did they have so many competition, do you know what they say to me?” Bill said with mirth in his eyes.

Everyone ears were focused on Bill wishing to hear some personal details about the strongest trainer of their generation while August just wish to know by inferring from it, what his true nature is so he can decide how to test him.

” It is something Alex taught them. He told them that this way they can find who is the better one without fighting and settle their dispute.

They keep record for their contests and every time their fight escalates a certain limit these record help settle the things between them, without any dispute.” Bill said.

” Who knew you can solve things without a fight and even so peacefully.” Elsa said with wonder in her tone.

They have mostly seen Alex deal with things either by threat, his pressure or by a battle, never once did they see him handle things peaceful. So this peaceful solution made them surprised.
