99.2% Journey Towards Greatness / Chapter 1369: Time?

章 1369: Time?

Julian "Do you have any idea where he could be?"

Julian asks, as Wes is the only person who knows how to reverse the effect of shadowfication.

Eugan "No, he just disappeared five years ago,"

Eugan answers.

This is not the answer Julian wants to hear, and it sets a frown on his face.

Eugan "Why are you looking for Wes?"

Eugan asks.

Julian "Isn't it obvious? He is the only one who knows how to cure shadow pokemons. Without him, those poor pokemons will continue to suffer."

Julian answers.

Hearing this, Eugan sees Julian in a new light. He realizes that Julian is not here just to avenge but also to help those suffering.

Eugan "... You don't need him,"

Eugan suddenly speaks up, grabbing Julian's utmost attention with his words.

Julian "Do you know how to cure shadow pokemons?"

Julian asks with some hope in his voice.

Eugan "You asked about that platform, right?"

Eugan says signaling to the platform with his head.

Julian "Is that the cure?"

Julian looks back at the ancient crack-riddled platform.

Julian 'It does make sense for Crystal to be attracted to it if it holds some unique power,'

He thinks.

Julian 'I need to get a closer look,'

Eugan "It's just one part of it,"

Eugan says stopping Julian's train of thought.

Julian "What's the other part?"

He asks curiously.

Eugan "Celebi"

Eugan says causing a long silence to follow.

Julian "You mean the mythical Pokemon Celebi?"

Julian asks to confirm what he just heard.

Eugan "Yes,"

Eugan confirms it.

Julian "How does it work?"

Julian asks. If he knows how it works, then maybe he can replicate it.

Eugan "As you know, Celebi is a Pokemon that can travel through time, and that thing over there can be viewed as a power amplifier.

Celebi can't control time in general, but with the help of that platform, it can concentrate on a certain amount of things, whether they are living or inanimate objects, and can influence them with time."

Eugan then begins explaining how Celebi managed to cure all those shadow pokemons

Julian "You are saying that five years ago, Celebi used this platform to cure all those shadow pokemons by reversing their body and soul using time?"

Eugan nods.

Eugan "But it requires a lot of energy. Wes was beside Celebi when they cured all those shadow pokemons. He had to continuously feed Celebi with energy for it to manipulate time on such a large scale,"

Eugan revealed.

Julian "This just complicates everything,"

He murmurs, as he will have to find Celebi to cure all those poor shadow pokemons.

Julian "What about Celebi? Do you know where it was last seen?"

Eugan "It doesn't matter. You will have an easier time finding Wes than Celebi. Celebi travels through time. It might be in the past, future, or some completely different region,"

Julian "You are right,"

He also didn't have any confidence in finding Celebi. Unless fate intervenes, Julian can forget about even getting a glimpse of it. Celebi is an extraordinary Pokemon and theory suggests that there is only one Celebi throughout time.

The Celebi of the past is the same as the one in the present and will be the same in the future as well.

Julian will have an easier time finding most of the mythical and legendary Pokemons than finding Celebi.

Julian 'Looks like I will have to stick to the current plan,'

Julian thinks and brings his attention back to Crystal. He approaches the platform while Eugan keeps close to him.

As soon as he steps within a certain radius of the platform, Julian is hit by a blast of thick Omniforce.

Julian 'I can't doubt the old man's words with what I have in front of me.'

He thinks as he checks out the platform.

The signature of the Omniforce coming from this platform is not something foreign to Julian. He has felt this before.

Julian "Dialga..."

Julian murmurs as he now understands how Celebi was able to access the power of time on such a large scale.

Eugan "DId you say Dialga?"

Eugan, who was close to Julian, heard his murmur and immediately questioned.

Julian "Well, it's the only logical explanation,"

Julian doesn't reveal much. He doesn't want people to know that he can feel the energies of time.

Eugan "Make sense,"

He says and brings his attention back to Crystal, who is by now bored looking at the platform and seeing nothing happen.

Crystal turns its head to look at Eugan, who doesn't interest it much. it then looks at the Pikachu that is sitting on Eugan's shoulder.

Seeing there is someone new to play, Crystal approaches Pikachu and greets it.

"~Mew~" "~kacuuu~"

They both greet each other and instantly become fast friends. They then quickly run off playing whatever game they invented.

Eugan "Is that a Mew?"

Not being able to hold his curiosity any longer, Eugan asks.

Julian "Not exactly. Crystal is a mutant."

Julian didn't lie. Crystal might look like a Mew but because of Omniforce, Crystal's DNA structure is very different and much more advanced than your typical Mew.

Eugan doesn't know what to think of this as the creature in front of him is one of a kind. He knows he will never see anything like Crystal ever again and this makes him happy.

When he was young, Eugan traveled around the world, catching pokemons and learning about them. Seeing Crystal made him reminisce about his childhood. The feeling he got from coming across a Pokemon he had never seen before during his young days traveling is definitely worth cherishing.

章 1370: Mt. Battle

Inside a small house on top of Agate village.

Eugan "I didn't expect someone outside of Orre will be concerned by Cipher's shenanigans,"

Julian "Well, they are no longer satisfied with just influencing Orre. They want the whole world under their control, and until I am around, I won't let it happen"

Julian says as he looks at his Crystal chasing around the little Pikachu.

Eugan stares at Julian as he wonders how strong Julian really is to make such a bold statement.

"Sorry for the wait dear," an old woman walks in with a tray in her hand. She then hands Julian a cup of tea.

Julian takes the cup with a smile and thanks her. He sips the tea and is presently surprised by how fresh and delicious it tastes.

Julian "This is amazing,"

He praises the sweet granny to which she smiles at him and leaves Julian and Eugan alone.

Julian "I am looking for someone named Vander. Do you know anything about him?" 

Julian asks. Eugan being a wise old man, Julian expects him to know a thing or two that other people might not be aware of.

Eugan "Vander? Yes, I know him. He is a good lad and is fighting a good fight against Cipher. Why are you looking for him?"

Eugan asks.

Julian "I need something from him,"

Julian doesn't say much. He thinks it's better to keep the details to himself, as he doesn't want anything to come back and bite him. He doesn't suspect Eugan, but it is better to be safe than sorry.

Eugan is smart and wise enough to know that Julian is not telling him everything, but he doesn't bother forcing it out of Julian. He is an old man, and his only job now is to keep Agate village safe as its head.

As for the whole Orre region, he will have to leave it to the youth of this land because where evil flourishes, heroes always rise to take them down.

________________________

Though Julian didn't learn anything about Vander during his stay, he did uncover a massive piece of information about what happened five years ago.

A trainer named Wes was able to defeat Cipher and also help shadow pokemons recover with the help of Celebi.

Now Julian knows how to deal with this shadow Pokemon situation. He might be able to look for an alternative. But finding this alternative will be extremely difficult as well, an alternative that can control time.

Julian hasn't heard of anything like this before, but this world is magical, so he might stumble up on something. He just needs to look harder. Or he can just look for Celebi if he wants to waste a lifetime.

Julian doesn't stay in Agate village for much longer and continues on the trail towards Mt. Battle. The longer he takes to find Professor Krane, the more the chance of him ending up in a very bad situation.

The drive towards Mt. Battle was not easy as the terrain was not friendly on wheels and it would take too long by foot.

So Julian had no other option but to use Charizard and fly toward the top of Mt. Battle.

Once high up in the sky above Mt. Battle, Julian looks at the town below him. He can't believe people actually live here up on top of a volcanic mountain and it looks like a thriving place.

Julian orders Charizard to land close by so that he doesn't trigger the guards stationed around the town and think of him as a hostile presence. It will be a hassle to deal with.

On foot, he approaches the gate of Mt. Battle and two people in official gear immediately stop him. They are the gate guardians of Mt. Battle. These two are responsible for keeping trouble out of the town.

"Sir, please stop," One of them stops Julian politely. Even though they look rough and burly, they seem to be respectful, which Julian appreciates.

"You don't look like a residence from this town. Please show us your ID or entry pass if you don't have an ID with you," the other guard asks.

Julian then takes out a card that was given to him by Lily. She said that he would need it to enter Mt. Battle.

Julian "Here,"

Julian hands over the pass to one of the guards. The guard takes a scanner and scans the card, causing the device to light green.

"Here you go." He hands the pass back to Julian. "Welcome to Mt. Battle," The other guard says and finally lets Julian enter the town.

Mt. Battle is a special town and has been known for its incredible heritage. Kings of the past lived here and ruled all of Orre. So controlling Mt. Battle is like controlling the whole Orre region.

The person in charge of Mt. Battle is Vander and Lily said that he works as a double agent for them, trying to free Orre of Cipher's control.

Mt. Battle Mountain itself is impressive as it is an active volcano and it looks incredibly grand from the outside, but Julian finds the town no less impressive from the inside as well.

Massive platforms connect forming large bridges that the townfolk use to move around. And since this town is built on top of an active volcano, these platforms have special machinery to keep the surroundings cool.

He feels the temperature here is much more pleasant than outside as he looks down from the edge to see boiling lava.

While looking around, he feels someone watching him. He turns his head to find a tall man with red hair and black glasses looking at him.

Julian is immediately on alert as he feels the man's intention, even though his eyes are hidden behind the glasses.

Julian 'This man wants to kill me. But why? Is he a Cipher member too?'

Seeing that Julian is looking at him, the man approaches Julian with a smile on his face.

"Welcome," he greets Julian with the most friendly smile possible.

Julian 'This bastard... Let's see where this goes.'

Julian thinks and decides to play along.
