Chapter 371: Pokemon master of tactics: Chapter 371
In an underground base in Saffron City, there was a particularly luxurious room.
There were several very expensive pieces of jewelry on the wall and even the furniture in this room was made with only the finest wood and enriched with many beautiful gemstones. In addition, the huge room had many high-quality electrical devices and even a huge TV on the wall, which worked without any problems even in this belowground base.
Two young men and a young woman are sitting in this large, luxurious room.
The first young man was very tall for his age and almost 2 meters tall, even though he was under 18 years old. he was not only tall but also relatively wide. He had a big belly, broad shoulders, and very muscular arms that didn't match his face at all. The face of this man could almost perfectly be described with the words "babyface".
the second young man had short black hair and a muscular body. He almost looked like a perfect handsome man if he didn't have those eagle-like eyes that made him look very dangerous. But even with those dangerous-looking eyes, this young man was very popular among the opposite sex.
These two young men were named Marco and Leeroy.
The woman in this room was a pale young woman with purple eyes and purplish hair, the latter being tied by a yellow ribbon. She wears a scarf, a belt, and white socks that were similar to the Gym leader Koga.
Janine was the name of this woman and she sits across from Marco and Leeroy.
Marco looked at Janine with a slight smile as he said, "I'm glad you could come. Can I get you something to drink?"
Janine just looked at Marco emotionlessly as she said, "No. Now, don't waste my time and tell me what you want."
Marco's eagle-like eyes gazed at Janine with a serious look as he said, "I heard you had trouble finding good subordinates."
Janine's face turned cold when she heard Marco's question. "do you want to die?"
Marco answered in a calm tone, "No and I don't think you can change this ."
The room went deadly silent for a few seconds and neither of them said a word.
Marco suddenly started saying, "I'm going to offer you a deal."
Janine showed a suspicious expression as she said, "A deal? is that a joke?"
Marco showed a serious expression as he replied, "Wait till you hear what I'm offering before you make fun of it."
He glimpsed at Janine's eyes as he said, "I'll help you win the test and win the position in Hoenn."
Janine showed a surprised expression as she said, "What... that's a lie. Why would you do that? what do you gain from it?"
Marco started to smile as he replied, "Happiness? Satisfaction? Pleasure? These are the emotions I would feel if you won this test instead of Alex."
Janine showed a confused expression. She couldn't understand why Marco would be so happy if Alex didn't win this test.
She asks with a confused expression, "Is it for revenge? Has Alex done anything bad to you?"
Marco said with a careless expression, "No. Me and Alex don't have any hatred."
Janine got even more confused than she was before, "W-What... But.."
Marco said with an annoyed expression, "But that doesn't change the fact that I despise Alex's talent and it wouldn't give me great pleasure to see him fall to the ground and crawl onto the ground like a worm."
He looked at Janine with almost maddening eyes as he said, "I've gathered so much information from that bastard and the more I found out the stronger this feeling got."
Marco then started to show an expression of anger as he said almost screaming, "This BASTARD is a one-of-a-kind prodigy and comparable if not better to Giovanni in terms of talent."
"He hasn't even been a trainer for a year and a half and his Pokemon have already a better average than my Pokemon have."
"I'VE BEEN A TRAINER FOR 4 YEARS. I TRAIN EVERY DAY AS MUCH AS I CAN WITH MY POKEMON. I WAS BORN INTO A RICH FAMILY. I HAD THE HELP OF TEAM ROCKET FROM THE VERY BEGINNING."
"AND I AM STILL SO MUCH WORSE THAN AN ORPHAN WHO HAS BEEN A TRAINER FOR LESS THAN 1 ? YEARS. WHY? WHY AM I SO MUCH WORSE? JUST BECAUSE MY TALENT AS A TRAINER IS WORSE? ONLY BECAUSE OF THAT?"
After only Marco's screams could be heard in this room, this room became completely silent again. Nobody said a word.
Marco started to calm down a bit after saying that.
He said in an almost soft tone, "I hate that monster named Alex. You know... There was a time when I thought I was a talented trainer."
Marco looked at Janine as he said, "You, me, and even your father are just normal geniuses."
"And I want to bring this extraordinary genius down. I don't care if he later becomes many times stronger than me. As long as I can trip this monster once, I'm satisfied."
Janine looked at Marco with a calm expression as she said, "You're jealous."
Marco didn't get angry upon hearing this and he just said with a smile, "Yes, I'm jealous. Like a kid who doesn't get their favorite toy. But, I don't care. I don't care if it's just an emotional reaction and my behavior is childish."
He looked at Janine with a smile as he said, "You're pretty lucky. Even if you just get the help of a jealous kid."
Janine and Marco talked for a few more minutes before Janine left the room with an apathetic expression.
Leeroy, who hadn't said anything the whole time, started to sit down next to Marco as he said softly, "Okay, she's gone."
Marco showed an unemotional expression when he said, "Good."
Leeroy then asked with a smile, "That was a lie, wasn't it?"
Marco said in a soft tone, "depends on what you mean"
"If you mean when I said that I'm going to help her win the test then yeah that's a lie."
"But you things I said about Alex are pretty much true."
Leeroy showed a surprised expression upon hearing this.
Marco revealed a smile when he saw that, "What are you so surprised about? I'm only human too. It's not easy not to feel anything when you're so much worse than others even though you work so hard and long."
After a short break he continues, "But that's exactly why Janine believed my lie."
Leeroy said in an approving tone, "Because your jealousy really exists."
"Boss, your talent for lying is really impressive."
Marco showed an annoyed expression when he heard that. He looked coldly at Leeroy with his eagle-like eyes.
"Shut up"
