BXBX NOVEL Chapter 437: Stay
Chapter 437: Stay
"I\'m sorry, Big Brother Shimizu, it\'s all because of me. If it weren\'t for me, you wouldn\'t have gotten hurt."
Seeing tears welling up in Gon\'s eyes, Yuga gently patted his head and comforted him, "It\'s okay, don\'t cry. I\'m fine, and look, we\'ve resolved the issue, haven\'t we?"
"Big Brother Shimizu, let\'s leave here quickly!"
Gon suppressed his tears and pleaded with Yuga.
"Leave? That\'s not an option. We haven\'t collected our winnings yet! Once she wakes up, she still needs to teach you how to use psychic powers!" Yuga pointed at the unconscious Sabrina on the ground.
Having won the bet, Yuga wasn\'t keen on leaving without claiming their reward, especially after he had been injured. Some compensation was in order.
Just as Yuga and Gon were debating whether to leave immediately, a middle-aged man with a stubbled beard suddenly rushed in.
"Sabrina!"
Seeing Sabrina lying on the ground, the middle-aged man hurried over to help her up.
"Who are you people? What happened to my daughter?"
Holding Sabrina, the middle-aged man looked at Yuga\'s group with suspicion.
Yuga\'s group was left speechless. They were the ones who had suffered, yet this man was acting as if they were the culprits!
Fortunately, this uncle seemed to be reasonable. After hearing Yuga and the others explain the situation, he sincerely apologized to them.
"I\'m truly sorry. My daughter has caused you trouble!"
It turned out he was Sabrina\'s father.
Looking at the bearded uncle in front of him, Yuga couldn\'t help but marvel at the wonders of genetics. How had he managed to father such a beautiful daughter as Sabrina?
"Don\'t worry, I\'ll make sure Sabrina fulfills the bet she made with you. If she refuses, I\'ll make it happen myself."
Sabrina\'s dad continued to speak.
As it turned out, Sabrina\'s father was also a psychic, and her psychic powers were inherited from him. Sabrina just happened to be exceptionally talented.
Psychics were typically born with their abilities, and it was rare for them to awaken later in life. Sabrina had displayed extraordinary psychic talents from a very young age, but her obsession with honing these powers had gradually led to her becoming reclusive, cold, and twisted in character.
It was precisely this personality that had made countless Trainers who came to challenge the Saffron Gym suffer.
However, Sabrina\'s father had always believed that his daughter had a fundamentally good nature. He had been trying to change her personality over the years.
Shortly after, Yuga\'s group was invited to Sabrina\'s home and received a warm welcome from Sabrina\'s parents.
The fear that Gon had developed due to Sabrina\'s actions began to subside in this warm and welcoming atmosphere.
In fact, Sabrina\'s family had a long lineage of psychic power inheritors, but the strength of their psychic abilities varied from generation to generation. Sabrina had simply outshone them all.
Originally, Sabrina\'s father was very happy about this, but as Sabrina\'s character became increasingly twisted, he couldn\'t find joy in it anymore. He would have preferred his daughter to be a normal person rather than a psychic with a twisted personality.
Thanks to the timely intervention of the Ghost World Origin Stone of Yuga\'s mind, his injuries from Sabrina\'s psychic outburst were not severe. Under the Heal Pulse of Chimecho\'s, he was completely fine.
Due to the chaotic state of her psychic powers caused by the psychic outburst, Sabrina had fallen into a state of confusion, leading to her prolonged unconsciousness. However, with the help of her father, who was an experienced psychic, Sabrina woke up after a while.
Upon learning that Sabrina had awakened, Yuga\'s group went to her room to visit her.
Sabrina seemed very happy to see Gon but appeared to avoid eye contact with Yuga. It seemed like she was quite fearful of him.
Yuga was puzzled by Sabrina\'s frightened expression. Was it because I\'m ugly? Or does she think I\'m going to eat her?
"Gym Leader Sabrina, you won\'t go back on your promise, will you?" Yuga asked Sabrina.
"Nn, I won\'t," Sabrina replied curtly before quickly turning her head away, avoiding looking at Yuga.
What in the world?
Seeing Sabrina\'s actions, Yuga was left half-exasperated!
Upon Sabrina\'s agreement, Gon seemed reluctant. He would have preferred her father to teach him instead.
Sabrina smiled at Gon, which was a rare sight. However, her smile looked incredibly stiff, almost scary, and nearly frightened Gon half to death.
Sabrina had a very positive impression of Gon. When she was with him, she felt as relaxed as when she was with her Alakazam. It was the first time she had ever felt this way with a human, which was why she brought Gon back.
Unfortunately, her actions had frightened Gon half to death.
Besides, Gon wasn\'t considered a human in the truest sense.
So, Yuga ended up staying temporarily in Sabrina\'s house with Gon. Gon would learn from Sabrina how to use psychic powers, including how to meditate to rapidly enhance his psychic power, how to maximize his Pokémon\'s strength, and various psychic techniques.
One day, as Gon left the house to train with Sabrina, Yuga stayed in his room, reading a book, when he heard someone knocking on his door.
Yuga: "Come in!"
Since his door was not locked, the visitor pushed it open right away.
"Eusine? What\'s up?"
Seeing that the visitor was Eusine, Yuga asked curiously.
"Yuga, I want to discuss something with you." Eusine stammered.
Yuga: "Go ahead."
"Are you and Gon going to search for the Ho-oh? Can I join you?"
"Join us?"
Yuga knew that Eusine had already learned about his and Gon\'s mission because of Sabrina.
"Yes, my biggest dream is to tame Suicune. As long as I\'m with you guys, I\'m sure I\'ll meet Suicune. Last time in Cerulean City, Suicune met you guys, right?"
Eusine became more and more excited as he spoke. Meanwhile, Marshadow quietly peeked out from Yuga\'s shadow, unnoticed by anyone.
Yuga hadn\'t expected Eusine to say something so absurd and felt a bit helpless.
"Eusine, are you seriously saying you want to tame Suicune?"
"Of course, I\'m more serious than ever!"
"It\'s not that I underestimate you, but with your current strength, taming Suicune is impossible. Besides, Suicune has already appeared once; it\'s not going to happen again."
Yuga earnestly tried to persuade him.
"No matter what, I have to give it a try. Otherwise, I\'ll regret it. Please, I beg you."
Seeing Eusine\'s unwavering deterEusinetion, Yuga reluctantly said, "Fine, have it your way."
Yuga figured that when Eusine realized he couldn\'t meet Suicune, he would naturally give up.
With Yuga\'s agreement, Marshadow once again slipped quietly back into Yuga\'s shadow, still unnoticed.
Upon hearing Yuga\'s agreement, Eusine said happily, "Thank you so much, Yuga."
Just as Eusine finished speaking, the door to Yuga\'s room opened with a "bang," and Sabrina and Gon stood at the doorway.
"I want to go too!"
This statement came from Sabrina, but she still avoided eye contact with Yuga, her expression showing fear.
