BXBX NOVEL Chapter 54 - Pokemon Master Of Tactics: 54
Lisa said with a flirtatious expression, "Ahh~ Alex, my darling. I heard that you caught a lot of valuable Pokémon in very little time. I\'m really impressed with your talent."
Alex thought, "Why is she praising me? She knows that I have no interest in her and is still flirting with me. Fck, I hate this sadistic b*tch."
He said with an impassive face, "Thank you very much for your praise, Executive Lisa. Can I do something for you?"
Lisa was expecting this kind of answer. She said with a smile, "As you must have heard, I only recently became an Executive, and now I need a lot of talented people who can help me. I think that you have outstanding talent and are an optimal subordinate for me."
Alex said, "Executive Lisa, do you mean that I should be your direct subordinate?"
Lisa smiled and said, "Yes, that\'s exactly what I mean, my darling. But don\'t worry, I won\'t treat you poorly. As my direct subordinate, there are many advantages to be enjoyed."
Alex got goosebumps and thought, "Direct subordinate of a sadistic woman? Fckkkk. Why me? Why am I so unlucky to exchange Pokémon with a direct subordinate of her? No wonder that Brand was acting so friendly. The worst thing is that I\'m too weak to refuse this request. As soon as I have her pissed off, I\'m dead. She has 100 ways to kill me. Fck why I am so weak?"
Alex tried to put a fake smile on his face and said, "Of course I will take this position. I am happy to be a direct subordinate of such a talented person."
Lisa said, "Ohh~ I know that you don\'t want to be my subordinate. You don\'t have to lie just because you\'re too scared of me. You can speak your real opinion. I can promise you that I won\'t get angry no matter what you say. But before you answer, don\'t you want to know the benefits you can get as my direct subordinate? "
Alex looked at her and thought for several seconds.
He then said, "What advantages are you talking about, Executive Lisa? And which position do you want to give me?"
Lisa smiled and said, "Ohh~ I like direct boys. The position is very high. As my direct subordinate, you just have to listen to me. Of course, the Boss (Giovanni) can also command you if necessary. You also get to have my precious one\'s items easily. Such as the blood of a Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon."
Alex knew how hard it is to get good Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon blood in the black market.
Although Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon have good potential, they are not necessarily stronger than other Pokémon. There are many young Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon that are weaker than Alex\'s Golbat and cannot produce very useful objects (scales, blood, etc.) The stronger the Pokémon is and the better the potential is, the better the items of this Pokémon are.
You can buy valuable items from Half-Blood Legendaries in the Team Rocket Shop, but that has two primary disadvantages.
1: You don\'t know how strong the LV of the Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon is when you buy the items. Most of the time, the items are sold by weak Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon.
2: It\'s pretty expensive. Especially if you want to know how strong the Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon is from whom you buy the items.
Alex thought for a moment and asked, "So you are saying that I can buy the blood and a scale of your Lugia. That sounds great, Executive Lisa. But I don\'t know if I can afford it. Besides, I don\'t know how helpful it would be for me."
Lisa knew that Alex had enough money and just wanted to know how strong her Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon is.
She didn\'t say anything and called Lugia out from her Pokeball.
Alex suddenly saw a 3 meter tall white Lugia appear in front of him in this big office. This Lugia was very composed. It was giving Alex pressure by just standing in front of him. Alex knew that this Lugia is very young and will be much larger (Legendary Pokémon grow much slower than normal Pokémon).
-------------
Pokémon: Lugia (Half-Blood)
LV: 41
Type: Psychic / Flying
Abilities: Pressure
Gender: Female
Potential: Shallow Diamond
Moves: Weather Ball, Whirlwind, Gust, Dragon Rush, Extrasensory, Rain Dance, Hydro Pump, Aeroblast, (Perfect Talent) Ice Beam[E], (Perfect Talent) Roost[E]
(E/N: Perfect talent is just a better version of Innate Talent)
Alex suddenly heard a voice in his head.
System: Hidden Quest "Meet a Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon" successful.
Reward: slight improvement in potential
(Then potential is displayed more precisely like:
Shallow Bronze, Bronze, Deep Bronze
Shallow Silver, Silver, Deep Silver
Shallow Gold, Gold, Deep Gold
Shallow Diamond , Diamond , Deep Diamond)
Alex thought, "Fck, I can upgrade the system too? Why does nobody tell me about this system? And why is this upgrade not very helpful? Is this even an upgrade at all? I should calm down first. After all, it is not entirely useless. I can now determine the potential of Pokémon more precisely. "
Lisa thinks Alex is shocked by her Lugia and smiled satisfyingly. Then she took Lugia\'s Pokeball and called Lugia back.
Alex noticed that he hadn\'t said anything and suddenly smiled, "Executive Lisa, what a strong Lugia. It would be an honor to be able to buy Lugia items from this one, but I have one last question. What exactly would be my orders that I have to complete for you if I agree?"
Lisa understood Alex\'s concern and said, "Don\'t worry, I\'m a nice boss. You should just become my right hand and do things I can\'t do myself."
Alex was stunned by the fact that she offered him such a high position. Although Alex had good strength (weak Team Rocket Captain), he was not strong enough for such a position. To become the right hand of an Executive you should have at least have elite strength.
He asked, "Why me?" With an astonished expression.
Lisa smiled and said, "Due to your potential. You are getting strong insanely fast. I am sure that you can become an elite trainer within 6 months, and I don\'t have to worry that you are a spy from another executive. Think of this as an investment."
Alex thought, "6 months? She underestimates me quite a lot. My luck is pretty good for being underrated by my boss. So at least I don\'t have to worry that she thinks I will get stronger faster than her.
Hmm, I probably won\'t get stronger than her as long as I can\'t get any valuable items from her.
She has a Half-Blood Legendary Pokémon that has shallow diamond potential. That is a ridiculous trump card.
No matter how I see it, the pros are higher than the cons."
Alex looked at Lisa and said, "Should I call you Boss now?"
