Journey Towards Greatness

Chapter 80 - Assassin



After three days from the incident happening in Shadow Legion headquarters, we are back to Kanto Julian is currently looking at the stock market details, he had received some information from Jimi about the current stock market and investment methods. After doing some research he finally turns off his computer and sighs.

Julian "If things go as Jimi said, it will be great" ​​

He gets up and walks out of his room to get some fresh air, he covered his face with sunglasses and a scarf as the hotel he was staying always had eyes staring at it, reporters would be in disguise to take photos of him or any Elite four member they see.

After successfully escaping from them Julian hops onto his bike and rides of to the near hill site, when he reached there he saw a herd of Tauros running around scaring the pokemons which came in their way, he takes a deep breath and releases his pokemons so that they could walk around as well, he laid down on the grass and closed his eyes, he eventually fell asleep after sometimes he started to dream, he saw two crystal revolving around one was green and another was blue.

He suddenly woke up after seeing these crystals, he felt a little dizzy when he suddenly heard a beep in his head.

System 'Host has sensed something related to of the future'

Julian 'Future? how far is it?'

System 'Future timeline cannot be predicted'

Julian shook his head and thought about these two crystals he just has seen.

Julian 'I don't remember seeing these two crystals or have I, why would I see them?'

Julian was lost in thoughts, after spending his day walking around the hillside and training his pokemons he finally decided to go back, as he was about to leave he sensed someone watching him from behind a tree, he extended his Omniforce towards that tree to sense a man standing behind it, he had a gun in his hand, Julian was surprised by this.

Julian 'An Assassin, and it looks like he is here for my life. Who could it be that I have offended? could it be Giovanni, It might be him but let's not jump into speculations so soon'

Julian crouched down and pretended he hasn't noticed anything, he picked up a small pebble and rolled it a few times between his fingers, then suddenly he stood up and throw the pebble with full speed towards the tree, the pebble went straight through the tree and hit the assassin's hand which was holding the gun, his wrist got instantly dislocated as he screamed in pain and rolled around the ground. Julian slowly approached the assassin, he lifted the gun then he crouched near the assassin who was holding his wrist and gritting his teeth.

Julian pointed the gun at his head and pulled the rear sight of the gun to load the bullet into the barrel.

Julian "Tell me who sent you, if not it won't be your hand but your head"

The assassin got scared not just because of a gun pointed at his head but because he felt suffocated by an unknown fear which sent chills down his spine so he told Julian everything he knew.

Assassin "I am just a contract killer, I was given money by a man in a black suit to assassinate you that's all, I don't know anything about him."

Julian believed what he said as he had put the pressure on his soul itself so he couldn't lie.

Julian 'So somebody is behind my life and is very careful about it, this man in a black suit cannot be the mastermind, there is someone above him who gave the order, looks like I have to wait for him, I don't want to go search for him myself let him come to me'

Julian then looked at the assassin who was still scared.

Julian 'If it was my old self I would have killed him right now but I am not the person from my past'

Julian placed his hand on the assassins head and sent a wave which knocked the man unconscious, Julian had erased his memory of him every meeting him and also about the contract the man in the black suit assigned him.

Julian then walked away leaving the assassin behind.

Julian 'I could have completely changed his mind and put him on a good path but I didn't, who knows how many people he has killed, if my guess is right he will be killed by the man in the black suit so I don't have to worry about my hands getting stained by blood'

Julian returns back to his hotel but hets swarmed by reporters as he had completely forgotten about them, after escaping from them he finally entered his room and took a deep breath.

Julian 'I hate these reporters, this is really a downside for becoming famous'

He then walks to his computer and surfs the internet to search about his next opponent Bruno, after researching for a while he finally takes a rest.

Julian 'Bruno and Fighting-type expert, his teams main pokemons are Hitmontop, Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, Onix, and Machamp. He also has a Poiwrath and Golem but they are not his strongest pokemon. His main and strongest Pokemon is his Machamp, to uses Onix to counter against trainers who using Flying types and keeps his team balanced.'

Julian thinks about it for a while then decided the pokemons he will use against Bruno, as the days goes by he eagerly waits for his next battle.
