Kapitel 200: CHAPTER 10 : The new era is coming

Leaf on hearing her father in law explanation just held her head on her hand while laying her body on her chair for support..

" This kid just keeps jumping from one trouble to another. " She mumbled.

" I won't say trouble but I think he had a pretty adventurous journey so far. His encounters make me very envious. He got to meet mew and here I haven't even seen a shadow of hers. I am so jealous." Blue said with jealousy evident in his eyes. He fantasize about encountering different Legendary on his next trip outside.

A hard hit on the back of his head, courtesy of his dear wife Green, brought back Blue to the reality.

Of course the sniggering of Red angered Blue beyond anything and he shouted at him," You find it funny, aura boy. I remember someone fainting when he heard that his wife was pregnant."

This changed Red facial expression, he turned red in being reminded of that past embarrassment and it turned sour while Blue on the other hand was smug.

Everyone in the room such as Samuel and Green and even their own Pokemons knew if these two aren't stopped now then they would start another one of their very vocal fights which will only waste everyone's time.

So Green decided to stop the fight before it can even begin and slapped both of the childish adults on the back of their head hard. It is hard enough to make them fall on the floor, face first.

" We are discussing about young Alex now. If you idiots want to fight among yourself, do so when this matter is settled. Am I understood?" She said while looking at the duo adult troublemakers angrily daring them to object.

" Yes ma'am"

" We understood everything. Thank you for correcting our idiotic behavior."

The duo replied mechanically and in perfect sync as if they have said that multiple times.

Meanwhile other occupants of the room just shook their head in absolute dismay.

Samuel just smiled softly at their attics meanwhile the pokemons thought,' It seems idiocy is necessary to gain strength beyond most people.' while looking at their comedy acts.

" Now that everything is settled. Let's head back to the matter in hand " Samuel said and reinitialed the meeting.

" Father, how long do you think it will take for Alex to recover from the mental trauma he suffered during the entire duration of the Pokemon Tide?" Gwen asked her father in law worried about his mental psych.

" If it is any average ordinary trainer, I would say about two to three years. That level of bloodshed is difficult for anyone to overcome especially if someone has to lead during his very first Pokemon Tide." Samuel revealed his thoughts to everyone.

" But what about Alex? We all know Alex is anything but ordinary? He is monster even among monster. So what are your thoughts on the basis of his mental strength and past actions, Professor?" Red asked the elderly Professor with curiousity evident on his eyes.

Samuel just smiled and increased their anticipation for the answer. He was the one who spent more time with Alex than anyone of them. So his thoughts and opinions regarding Alex will be much more accurate than the one they made.

" Tell me what are your thoughts first and then I will tell you mine." He said mysteriously and looked at Red first asking him to reveal his thoughts.

Red didn't say anything or did anything to object and merely mumbled," about 15 months. He is an aura user. It takes longer time for aura users to overcome the mental impact.

They are sensitive to these cases and many aura users turned mad or went berserk and killed people around them when they are subjected to the situation Alex experienced.

It is tough. There was a reason I was out of the count for a couple months more than Blue when I first led the men. There are some other details behind the cause of berserk but I don't know about it entirely.

Alex hasn't shown any sign of berserk or turning mad so I think he will be fine but due to the gains and boons from the aura, he will suffer some harmful effect and take time significantly more time to overcome the situation especially considering his age. Above all else, He is just a twelve tears old. "

Blue interrupted him while mumbling," Eleven."

" What ? What do you say , Blue?" Red asked while puzzled by his intervention.

" He is eleven and a few months now. You said he was twelve. "

" I just round figured his age" Ted wasn't willing to lose from this rival of his in anything and countered back.

"Even if we round figure it, it will still be eleven. " Blue retorted.

And before things could escalate a cough disrupted their actions. Both turned to the source of the cough. It was Green and behind Gwen were some vines of Venasaur waving around waiting for his trainers command to act.

Blue quickly turned his tune and said," From what I saw him act and train in his times at the laboratory and taking into account his aura user ability, I believe that it would take him at least an year to recover.

What do you think, dear? "

Green blushed slightly at the question and said," I don't know him well enough. I only know about him from Daisy or what you all tell me about so I cannot say how long it will take for him to recover."

" Dad we all have expressed our view on this matter. Why don't you tell yours too." Blue said when he saw his wife glaring when he sniggered at her reply.

" It is already my turn, huh. If it was normal times it would take Alex almost a year to recover but it isn't the case now. Now, I think he would be completely fine within six months time. " this answer was way too surprising. To think it is almost the same duration of time it took to for most of these people ( Blue, green, red) to overcome the first Tide experience years ago.

" Why?" Red asked his elderly mentor.

Oak simply replied,"As for why I think so. He loves his brother and sister a lot. He wants to protect them ftom everything he could and not let them suffer.

His mother is pregnant. Her expected date of birth is a few days after Green's and a couple days before Delia's. His new twins siblings will be of the same age group as your kids.

Their appearance will help him penetrate the fog of confusion that shroud his heart and help him get over it. "

The other three were quite sceptic about this but they didn't object him.

Seeing none of them objecting him, Samuel just smiled but he inwardly thought, 'good thing they didn't ask more or i don't know how i will answer them.

I can't say I met an older Alex who mentioned about his first Tide experience to us back then and I use it as a reference for the treatment.' almost everyone even the Pokemons were convinced that this might work and this was why he did what he really did with Alex.

But his own pokemons just looked at him deadpanned knowing the actual reason and just shook their head in dismay.

Then Samuel said something which brought complete and utter silence in the room.

" Now everyone will follow our lead " Samuel said seriously.

Although he didn't clarify what the others will follow, they were smart enough to understand what he meant. " I don't know how many genius will perish in this new round of competition between the different regions." Red said and lowers his head regarding the chaos which is going to happen in the future.

" But it will greatly enhance the strength of this generation of trainers. I think some of them may even reach champion level before the age of twenty. I really look forward to their future. " Blue said.

" Yet the league won't do it now. It will only begin after Alex is completely fine and had restarted his journey." Green said.

" Indeed. The next step will begin when Alex takes the next step. " Samuel said," The era of my generation is over. Yours has begun and The new era of the monsters is also coming. The genius will be tempered and those who qualify would be the monsters of this generation." He said while looking out of the window at the setting sun.

How will the other regions react to Alex's participation in the Pokemon Tide? Stay tuned.
