7 Professor Birch's Assistant

"What's wrong!?"

While Alex was thinking, Professor Birch noticed his expression and asked.

"This..." After being discovered by Birch, Alex secretly regretted for losing his composure, but then he had an idea.

Touching the back of his head, Alex pretended to be confused and said, "When you mentioned this, I seem to have remembered it! My parents is just ordinary people. Just a week ago, they saved up 150,000 Union Coins and planned to give me all at once to fulfill my dream as a Pokemon trainer, but someone attacked us and after that I have never heard anything about my parents."

As he said, Alex also described Team Magma'a appearance and characteristics.

Hearing Alex's words, Birch's heart trembled, and he immediately thought of the notorious Team Magma in the Hoenn continent.

"So, maybe your parents are still alive." Birch comforted Alex, but he knew deep down what would happen when ordinary civilians met trainers from Team Magma.

"I don't know, I can't remember, I just know that I really hate those people!" Alex shook his head in confusion, but there was genuine anger in his eyes!

Seeing this, Birch couldn't find any clues, so he could only come up his own theory.

Alex's parents must have been killed, but Alex didn't have the money to become a Pokémon trainer, so he wandered outside. At the same time, because of that incident, there is an incentive for Psychic awakening!

"Alex, everything is fine. You can just live with me for now."

Feeling some sympathy for Alex, Birch reached out and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him, "You are my savior, you can rest assured. I will at least take care of your life!"

Having said that, in fact, Birch actually has his own plans. After all, Alex is a psychic who has successfully awakened.

Birch, has always been an experimenter. If he had an assistant or something, such a dangerous thing would not have happened to him.

Alex didn't know what Birch was thinking, but he had no one in this world he could trust and his foundation was also gone.

For the time being, he just listened to Birch's arrangement. In the end, he could only nod his head.

----------------------------------------------------

Time passed quickly. Three days later, Alex who was now fully recovered, breathed deep fresh air outside Birch's research institute, and beside him, Ralts also imitated him.

Seeing Ralts' cute appearance, Alex smiled, and reached out to stroke her long blue hair.

"Lalu!" Ralts suddenly let out a comfortable growl. Alex didn't know if it was his illusion but he felt that Ralts's little face seemed to have a little blush...

Perhaps due to awakened as a psychic, Alex clearly felt that Ralts was very close to him.

With that in mind, Alex looked at Ralts a little expectantly, he hoped that the latter would be with him forever.

Casually noticing that Alex's gaze towards her seemed to be a little different, Ralts's voice rang in Alex's mind, "Mo, what's wrong!?"

"I was just wondering, will you be with me forever?" Alex did not hide his thoughts, because he knew that Ralts could feel the emotions of him and if he lied to her, the loss would outweighed the gain!

"Yes!!" Hearing Alex's words, Ralts nodded seriously, "I was not liked in my group because of my hair color, so I wandered outside. Then, I decided to become stronger on my own, but I feel it as long as I'm with you I'll become more stronger than before!"

"Really!" After hearing these words Alex smiled.

The Ralts in front of him seemed to be different from the usual shy and timid Ralts, with unusually ambitious but yes, after all, it's a Shiny Pokémon!

"Alex, are you chatting with Ralts again?" At this moment, Birch's voice came from behind.

"Yes, Professor!" Hearing Birch's voice, Alex immediately stood up and turned his head slowly.

"Sorry to bother you, but I have a question to ask you now!"

Seeing Alex's appearance, Birch hide his excitement. Although Alex is only the lowest-level psychic, his ability to communicate with Pokémon is really impressive.

At least, because of his ability, doing field research is still very useful for him.

"Professor, please tell me!" Alex was very curious to see what would Birch ask.

"That's right, I looked into the matter and the Alliance does not have any record of you paying money. In fact, there have been recent reports of Team Magma attacks in the surrounding cities. So, there is no problem with your identity. Your parents should have been affected by them. Now, you should have nowhere to go. So, I just want to ask, are you willing to be my assistant?"

"Assistant?" Hearing Birch's question, Alex frowned, but after thinking for a moment, he nodded: "Okay, Professor."
