章節 663: Ralts

First of all, Axel was happy that this was not the end of its ability's powers. There was also stage III. He didn't know what Slowemperor would receive when it reached stage III of 'Monarch', but it must be very good.

The second stage of Monarch targeted specific Pokemons, namely Slowpoke line and Shellder line. But the ability of the second stage was just too good to be true.

It basically said that Slowemperor could only be one until it dies and all the Slowpoke line and Shellder line would follow every command of it.

So, if Axel was having a battle against another trainer and by some luck that trainer used Sl\owpoke line or Shellder line Pokemons, that trainer would automatically lose the battle.

This ability was especially a godsend in the tides. If Axel and his Pokemons were to face Slowpoke or Shellder and its evolution and variants, then the battle would be over in an instant. Slowemperor could also use those Pokemon and order them to fight their own friends.

Axel then looked at the new move. It was an active move but the move was somewhat unusual.

---

Monarch Indifference (Lvl max): A Monarch should be focused on their goals and objectives. Think about a goal or objective and then use the move to enter into a special mind zone where the user would do anything to achieve that goal or objective.

Condition: The trainer or any other being could not instruct or order the user to use this move and the user has to use this move on its own violation.

Warning: This move would completely change the mind perspective of the user to achieve its goal. It is recommended for the user to use it only in the case of life and death situation.

---

The move was very unusual. First of all, the level was already maxed out and Axel could not improve this move any further. Secondly, it said that while using this move, the user (Magnus) would do everything to complete its goal. Did that mean that before it had never given its best? Of course, it had. So, why was the move saying so?

Axel wanted to try out this move but there was a condition that he could not tell it to use this move and the user would have to use this move under its violation, without any influence from other parties. This was a very unusual condition because it was very harsh.

The harshest condition, he had received was the conditions from the move 'Transform' of Charizard but this condition was even more harsh than 'Transform' as Axel could not tell it to use this move.

The description also said that the move should only be used in life-and-death situations. When he read it, he knew that the move was not so simple but its description was so vague that he could not understand most of it.

"Let's leave it. I cannot do anything about it right now.", mumbled Axel to himself.

Axel didn't receive another main mission when Stage I of 'Monarch' was completed. This could mean that Stage III was the last stage of Monarch. However, he was already happy with the effects of stage II.

###

A couple of days passed like that but they could still not see any Pokemons in the forest. This was very unusual and Kizaru was now getting nervous. Was the whole part of this forest, making plans to attack them? If this was the case, then there was no way that they were coming out of here alive.

Only a day was left before they could step on Axel's land. Kizaru now had to make ample preparation to run or fight given the circumstances.

"Guys, we are now getting near to the land. So, make a tight formation. I will also call out my Mr. Mime and ..., you will call out all of your psychic-type Pokemons and make a tight formation of them. If something happens, I will give you guys a shout and you guys will call out all of your Pokemons in the balls and these psychic-type Pokemons will teleport us far away.

I want you to call out your most effective and trusted Pokemons now but don't call out all of your Pokemons. We need to get ready. I feel that we will be facing something worse now.", said Kizaru.

"Kizaru, my Magnus could also use 'Teleport'. They can also join the team of your psychic type Pokemons.", said Axel.

"No, I would not suggest that. My Pokemons and the Pokemons of ... had trained on this joint teleport for a long time. They have perfect coordination and can act very fast given the situation. Adding a new variable like your Pokemon would increase the risk chances of something bad happening. I can not risk it."

That was a reasonable explanation but Axel still felt unwanted after hearing. However, he knew that he had to think of a bigger picture. It was nice to know that the expedition team had such strategies with them during their time of need. This team was clearly more advanced than what he had met before.

All of them did as they were told and they started to move slowly and carefully. Axel called out Slowemperor, Shedinja, and Gogoat for his protection. Shedinja was inside his shadow so nobody knew of its presence. Slowemperor was for quick teleport if something happened and he was riding on Gogoat. The land of Axel would start after 10 km now and it was already late afternoon. They were going to cover this distance in a couple of hours.

###

After a couple of hours, they were near the border of the land. Axel was a bit excited to see his new land. He had acquired it more than a year ago but never had the chance to see it. He had some plans for this land but first, he would have to see if the Pokemons there welcomed him and his plans.

"Hey, is that a Ralts?", asked Jin looking a bit far away.

All of them looked in Jin's direction. They could see the cutest Ralts playing with a trunk of trees. There were multiple heavy trunks of trees lying around it and with the help of its psychic powers it was flying those in the air and trying to catch it.

This Ralts was very small indicating that it was just a baby but seeing a baby able to use telekinesis to lift multiple trunks of trees in the air made Axel and the group stupefied. How monstrous would it get when it evolves and ranks up to a higher rank?

Since this Ralts was busy playing with tree trunks, it didn't notice the incoming humans and powerful Pokemons. Axel and the group also didn't notice any aura of this Ralts.

It must be noted that Axel was an elemental rank human and he had trained a lot in sensing aura but he was not able to sense this Ralts. Kizaru might be even more powerful than Axel but even he didn't sense it. If Jin had not pointed it out, they might not have even noticed it.

At the same time, this baby Ralts noticed some movements and it immediately turned around to see a group of unknown humans and powerful Pokemons with them. Ralts was a special Pokemon and it had an ability that very few Pokemons had. It could sense the emotions of others.

This Ralts sensed that all these humans were very wary of it and they didn't have any good feelings about it. It knew that it was in trouble. Its mother and father had told it to not go outside alone. It knew that it was going to get scolded by its parents but first, it would have to get out of here alive.

Being a wild Pokemon, it was obviously well-versed on how to protect itself. So, it shouted in the minds of every human present saying, 'Bad Humans!! Go away!! Go away!!'

This was telepathy which was its hidden ability. This also shocked Axel cause a baby Pokemon had already unlocked its hidden ability which was very rare. Normally, Pokemons took some time to unlock it.

After saying that it started to teleport back to Axel's land. The teleportation was not a long distance but multiple short distances.

"Oh shit!! That Ralts has already informed its parents about us. Be ready for battle.", shouted Kizaru.

"Why can't I sense any presence here?", asked Axel as he was also confused.

"I don't know why but we must be ready.", replied Kizaru and he was right. Within a few seconds, multiple Pokemons came into their vicinity.

There were 8 pseudo-king rank Pokemons, 5 king rank Pokemons of various tiers, 3 pseudo-champion rank Pokemons, and 1 champion rank Pokemon. A total of 17 Pokemons. Among them 7 were Gardevoir and 10 of them were Gallade. The champion rank was a Gallade.

The champion rank Pokemon came forward and asked, "Humans, why have you come here to disturb our peace? If you don't give me a good reason, none of you would go out of here alive."

The feeling of hostility was heavy in the air as Axel gulped his spit to calm down. This was a champion-rank Pokemon and if it really wanted, then they would really die here. Even Kizaru didn't have a champion-rank Pokemon with him.

Axel was surprised at how could there be a champion-rank Pokemon here. Champion-rank Pokemons were extremely rare to find in the wild and unfortunately, they had encountered one of them.

"I have come to meet with Serena who lives beyond this land. She said that I could come here anytime to meet with her.", said Axel as he came forward to talk.

The champion rank Gallade stared at Axel with piercing eyes for a few seconds. These seconds really felt like hours for Axel and the group.

"It looks like you are not lying. If the leader wants to meet with you, you are welcome but why did you bring so many humans with you? They are not permitted inside."

Gallade just like Ralts could tell what Axel was feeling and thinking. So, it was not hard for it to determine that Axel was telling the truth. The leader had also informed them that one day a human would come and they should welcome him.

"These are my friends who came here for my protection. I have never been here before, so naturally I fear for my life.", said Axel.

"The leader said that we are to welcome you when you come here but didn't say anything about your human friends. So, they will have to return back."

Axel could hear that its voice had become a bit soft when Axel said who he really was but it was still telling others to return back. Axel could not risk this.

Serena seemed like a genuine Pokemon/ human but he would have to have a backup. He didn't know what was going to happen there and so if these Pokemons didn't allow them to come together, then he would have to return back.

As Axel was going to request again, the leader's face changed. It looked like it was having a telepathic conversation with someone. Axel didn't disturb it and after a few seconds, it said, "The leader just talked to me. All of you can come inside and all of you are welcome."

All of them were surprised. The drone had spotted Serena somewhere in the center of Axel's land. So, the place was like a few thousand km away. If this leader could communicate from a few thousand miles away and it had a champion rank Pokemon as its subordinate, then it was not a simple Pokemon.
