Pokémon: Adventures with Sirona

"I feel like I can't keep doing things I don't like."

"Yes. You won't fall in love with me. On the contrary, sometimes you will fall in love with someone who has no talent."

Sirona sees Cam and Isana as opposite trainers.Isana has talent but no interest, so she doesn't aim to reach the top.I can't target Kaim because he has no talent.The end result is the same, but the process is very different.

"Talent.

Isana laughed to herself and poured water into the glass.

"Isn't this child too servile?"

"True. You might say that you underestimate yourself, or rather, that you underestimate your abilities."

This is exactly the weakness that was exposed during the battle with Alice.There is a weakness in Keim's heart. He does not believe in himself and tries to believe in what others have accumulated.I was able to get over it, but it took time to fully get over it.

"It might be my fault."

"?"

"I used to be a nasty person. I can't understand the feeling of a guy who can't do anything because he can do everything. Now that I think about it, he really is a nasty person."

Although he was smiling, there was a twinkle of regret in his eyes.

"I don't think I said that much to my friends, but I think I said some really harsh things to Kem. I didn't want him to suffer and make an effort because he was a sweet little brother. I didn't want to watch to it because it hurts and I don't understand what it means."

The image of young Cam reappeared in Isana's mind.

Kaim spends less and less time playing with his friends. He uses Pokémon to learn and train his body. Seeing Kaim's appearance is somewhat painful.No matter how hard she tries, her grades are lower than her older sister Isana and she is always compared to her.Originally, I was a child who seldom laughed, but because of this, I stopped laughing.At some point, the only people who can smile are Pokémon.

Isana can't see Cam like that.I want you to find what you can do and what you want to do instead of going your own way.With that in mind, I have a word for Cam.

“No matter how hard you try, you know you have no talent, right? Do you want to do something else?”

No matter what Isana thinks in her heart, what she said is true.Young Cam couldn't take those words.As a result, he lost confidence in everything and became shy.Maybe it's because he's a twisted person that he spares no effort, but even then he loses faith in what he's doing and underestimates him.

"That's part of the reason I might be hated. That's why I try not to get involved."

I have all sorts of thoughts about Isana who laughs awkwardly.Everyone is generally immature as a child.So you could make a big mistake and the relationship could end up falling apart.

But not now.Cam and Isana are both adults now.Sirona thought she would understand if I told her.So I decided to tell Isana about it nicely.

"Isanathan. I have known him for three years. From the time we met, Keim was indeed a servile, immature, and unconfident young man. But now he is not perfect, but he has overcome this. He's not the same young Cam anymore. Cam did say a lot about you. But he never said, 'I hate you. Please take a look and I'm sure you'll understand.'

I know because she has a younger sister.Brothers are the closest strangers.Because it's so close, there's a lot to tell.It's impossible for us to know everything about each other, but even so, I can assure you that we communicate so much.

"Hehe, I was preached by my sister-in-law."

"?!"

"Oh, that's right. You're not engaged yet."

I turned my face away from Isana, who was grinning and showing her teeth.It was to cover up his flushed face, but it didn't make much sense, because the ears were red after all.

“Girona Sauce“

"…yes"

"Thank you. I'll talk to Cam later."

"Please do. I'm sure it will be communicated."

"I'm glad I'm a good boy"

Isana tried to pour the wine from the bottle, but beside her Jukan entered the room with the bottle.

"Ah, hey, Ten Kane is here!"

Without looking back at Isana's voice, Zhukan put the bottle back in its place.

"Maybe I shouldn't let him travel with Cam. He looks a lot like Cam, doesn't he?"

"Huhu, yes, the action of blunt stop is very similar to that of Cam."

In Cam's case, this often happens when she nags.He didn't accept it silently like the previous Zhu Kane, but even so, his semi-forcible acceptance method was very similar to Kaim's.

"Ah, yes. Speaking of travel, you said it at dinner, but the two of you are going somewhere for some reason."

"Yes. It's a very special place."

Chapter 66 Sirona's Charm Value Explodes

"Are you going to investigate?"

"It was more out of curiosity than research.

"If you're interested, there's nothing you can do~"

“However, it is doubtful whether we will be able to go.”

The ship itself exists, but the current situation is that no one can operate it.So tomorrow I decided to go to the harbor with Cam to catch some sailors.

"Ah? Why? Is it so dangerous?"

"It's a bit dangerous because wild Pokémon are very powerful, but my kids can do it with no problem."

"Then why?"

"There is a person who can lend me a boat, but he seems to be unable to investigate with me because of something, so I plan to go with Cam tomorrow to find someone who can take the helm."

Although Cam was originally from the South Zone, he didn't seem to have any relationship with the sailors.I was going to ask Nada and Taki, but that's just Sirona's situation.You can't get involved too much.

"Ah, there's no point in owning a ship if there's no one at the helm."

"Yes, although it is not easy to find, but I will try my best to find it."

"Since you haven't found it yet, let me look for it?"

Isana's words made Sirona open her eyes wide.

"?"

"Oh, didn't you hear me?" "No, I heard you Isana, can you pilot this ship?"

"Yes. My husband is a sailor. I can do it because he taught me. I also have a license. I can operate ferries from large to small.

Sirona was suddenly taken aback by the pilot who appeared in an unexpected place, but it would be better if it was really entrusted to her.

"I'll discuss it with Cam first, but is it okay if I ask for a while?"

"yes.

“Really high standard”

"I have a good memory. Who can lend me a boat?"

"My name is ikuri and I'm from Renesity. I'm a gym manager."

"Ah, Mikuri?"

Mikuri is a famous figure in tournaments and battles.So it was not surprising to meet Isana, but Sirona asked Isana, and Isana spoke as if she had really seen him.

"Do you know each other?"

"Yeah, we are the same age, and we met while traveling."

Sirona is no longer surprised by Isana whose specifications are too high.

ー ー

It was late at night, listening to the sound of waves echoing quietly on the desolate road, Cam rode his bicycle to the location of the accident.

The destination is a cape with a lighthouse.There is already an interviewer, Mikuri.

"Hi, Mr. Keim. I'm sorry it's late at night."

"No problem. They're relatively nocturnal."

It's past ten o'clock now, but for Cam who usually works until late at night, this is not a particularly late time.

I parked my bike and walked towards Mikuli. Instead of the fancy clothes you see on the playing field, ikuri wears casual shirts and tights.

"So? Something happened."

"But the main reason is that I want to talk to you."

"with me?"

"As you know, I've known Daigo for a long time. I often hear him talk about you."

Daigo has high communication skills, has a good relationship with the Four Heavenly Kings and gym leaders, and has many friends.The unspoken truth is that many people are attracted to his personality, but it does not make people feel that he is the heir to the Devon Group.For this reason, Kaim also has great trust and friendship with Daigo.

However, to Kem's surprise, his story was brought up by many influential figures and celebrities.

"Because he was the only one in Daigo's story who didn't know his identity. It made a good impression on me."

"It's an unknown trainer."

"He doesn't have any particular talent, but he loves Pokémon, and he says he's a caring trainer who puts in more effort than anyone."

"Who cares about the bastard"

It's all true, but Cam doesn't like being treated as he pleases.First of all, Cam is not a caring person, but a caring person.I don't do it because I like it.I complained to Daigo in my heart that I just couldn't let him go.

"I've never seen Dawu talk about things other than stones so happily. I've known you since I was a child, but Dawu trusts you very much."

"Because we are friends."

"Hoo hoo, good friend."

Mikuri sat on the steps below the lighthouse, and Cam sat next to her.

"Okay, let's get back to business. I mainly want to talk to you, but there is another reason."

"I guess"

Otherwise, I wouldn't have made a point of calling him the night before leaving Hoenn tomorrow morning.

"Actually, I have a request.

"I owe you a favor, and I'll try to listen."

"thanks.

"?"

Kem unconsciously raised his voice in response to this unexpected request.
