Chapter 74 - Conditions

Alex followed Samuel inside the laboratory. There they entered a room in the living hall and sat on the sofa. Daisy too followed them inside the lab and went to her room.

" so Alex Agatha told me you wanted to be an assistant professor. " Samuel asked him

Alex nodded in agreement and said," I have some research ideas pertaining to pokemon evolution as well as some inheritance moves.

I wanted to release some papers on these topics but my grandpa stopped me on the ground that I have noone to support me. My ideas may clash with some research of other big people who might accuse me of the time and may even impose restriction on my research."

" Indeed I think it might happen. Your King's rock evolution is a section of evolution research and the current head in the field of evolution, Professor Rowan will himself sue you in case of theft of research and you will be punished.

Banned for lifetime or even imprisonment."Samuel replied and agreeing with Alex.

Alex said," He told me all these cases might happen and I should wait until I become strong or have a backing."

" Yet you told Agatha about your research. You didn't tell her the entire truth did you. And your discovery of new type is also phenomenal.

Agatha called me and asked you to be your guarantee. I thought whether or not should do it or not ." Oak said while thinking,' I owned you enough that I could help you without worry or even Charles will come to help you out. But if I don't act reluctant you might find something odd and won't join us.'

" And what do you want in return?" Alex asked directly without any hesitation.

" Aren't you afraid I too will steal your research. This topic isn't your main research topic and you are already strong and don't need to chat with me. Others need reputation but you already are very reputated.

And I don't think you will try to Sully your reputation just for this. And you also a t as guide for young trainer and researcher who might contribute to the world. Now the world think you as a teacher and if I become famous your reputation itself will increase

Also you created the pokedex. It already is an epoch level creation on par with ancient pokeball. Nothing in the world could match this.

You don't lack money or power so you won't steal my works." Alex said

"I will help you. But you will have to do something for me. Are you ready for it?"

" What is it that you need my help with?" Alex asked

" I want you to collect data about different types of Pokemon and also catch some back to the Lab." Samuel said

" this is easy. I can do that but what else?" Alex asked

" You should also be Daisy's teacher." He said.

" What?"

" Daisy is a smart kid and she is also spoiled by us. I need a teacher who could bear her temper and teach her well.

Your battle showed that you have that mentality and you won't let our prestige affect your teachings." The older man said

"But why me? There are people better than me and still reaching these criteria."

" Because you are young she will mingle with you well and she could also get a friend." He said

" Also you only need to start teaching her when she is ten and start to travel. By then you will both have reputation and power to help her.

I only need you to guide her for few months. You will also be paid for it. There are still around four years left. " He said

These calmed down Alex but " But aren't

you making this decision too early. By then you may find someone better."

"Because I saw your potential so I made this choice. Do you agree?"

" No problem. I will do it."

And then Blue entered the room with another man with a red hat.

He was Red Ketchum, the previous champion

Alex luck was really great. People don't meet a single champion level people in their lifetime and yet he met three in a single day.

Red on entering the room looked at Alex and said,"Your battle was impressive. I really want to battle you. How about an agreement between us. We will have a official battle a month before the league tournament for your practice."

This shocked Alex but before he could reply Blue roared at Red," Don't steal my opponent. I met him before you I will face him."

" But I challenged first " he countered

" You cheated. You didn't let me speak." Blue retorted

" I didn't close your mouth earlier."

" No matter. I will face him first"

" Me"

"me"

" Me"

" " Me""

" Me"

" Enough "Samuel shouted ," You both are still so childish. Let's get to the matter we are all together "

they all quiet down and sat .

Alex was puzzled about this and asked," What is the matter?"

" The thing is about you joining the Oak Laboratory."

What matter are they going to discuss about? Stay tuned
