Chapter 10: New Home, New Life

It had been a week since Soul moved out of Pallet Town. His parent's had sighed Aqua into the Pokemon School of Vermillion City. She would start next week, so Soul had to be prepared for that.

Sitting on the dock, Soul looked at the vast, endless sea in front of him. Right beside him was Lapras, who was happy for living near the sea. She sang more often than he could remember, sometimes, she would accidently use Sing and almost made all of them fell asleep.

Either way, Soul enjoyed the luxurious life that he currently lived in. He bought several fancy furniture that he liked, and some of the best PC out there. There was so much to spent that he didn't consider how much space it would take.

Seeing this as a problem, he had some building company to build a garage, so that he could store all of the unused items in there. He didn't want to put it in his inventory since it would take too much time to find it.

It got built quickly as they had help from Pokemon, and they wanted to impress Soul with their architect skills. Soul didn't think much about it but was happy that they built it fast and good, so he told them that if there were anything he would like to build, he would call them again.

He also went to buy groceries with a disguise on once in a while and bought tons of stuff back home. After all, not everything is for him, its also for his Pokemon who is a glutton when it comes to his homemade food.

Thinking about the last week he went through, Soul felt like a new man, one with responsibility.

Soul: 'Its almost dinner time.'

He thought as he looked at his new phone, it was a Lotus 13. While he was relaxing on the dock, his Pokemon went to train with each other in the forest. They exchange some moves, which scared all of the Pokemon around them as they fled away.

For today's dinner, Soul decided to make Poffin along with some Pokeblocks. He had already experience making Poffin before so it didn't take long for him to do that.

As for Pokeblocks, Soul bought a machine for doing it. All he had to do was to put berries and some other ingredients into the blender and turn it on. After the ingredients are blended, the blender would move down as a machinery sound could be heard from it. After a while, some Pokeblocks would fall out as you can grab it.

He also made some meals for himself as he made some KFC chicken with rice. He also made some orange juice to drink.

Finishing cooking everything, Soul called out to his Pokemon via. their thoughts that foods are ready. It didn't take long before he could hear several footsteps before all of the bowls except for one.

He could never get used to such a scene. Letting out a sigh, Soul picked up the bowl with telekinesis and gave it to Lapras, who thanked him for the food before eating it happily.

Soul also went to eat his dinner outside, where a table with four chairs could be seen. Settling his foods there, Soul began eating his food as he enjoyed the peaceful moment around here.

It was just what he needed, a quiet place where no one would come and bother hi-

*Ring* *Ring*

Soul: 'Seriously!? I'm in the middle of a meal! Who on earth could have called me at this time?'

Taking out his phone, Soul saw a name tag that said 'Professor Oak.' He sighed as he took the phone, this has to be something important or else…

Oak: Ah, Soul. You finally picked up.

Soul: What is it, professor? I'm in the middle of eating my dinner.

Oak: Sorry about that. It's just that I would like to ask you to come to Pallet Town for Ash and Gary trainer debut?

Soul: …

Oak: Hello? Are you there?

Soul: Yeah, I'm here…

Oak: So what your answer?

Soul: Tell Gary that I would come and watch his battle at the League. That should be enough to motivate him.

Catching on what Soul meant by that, Professor Oak nodded and ended the call. Soul put away his phone before he went to eat his dinner.

Soul: 'Hmm… I think I want to blow something up soon.'

Finishing all of their dinners, Soul washed up all of their dirty dishes in one go. He went inside where he turned on his PC. The first thing he did was to check on his company before he started gaming.

He found a game called Rise of Pokemon Empire. It's an online game where your main objective is to build a kingdom for your Pokemon. And also, you're a Pokemon too. You can team up with other players and make an alliance with them if you want. You can even betray them and destroy their kingdoms.

Its a fun and popular game. Soul rank is 8 in it. He didn't do any form for micro pay, so he came this far with only using his brain and resources. Today he would capture some Gyarados and add it to his army.

Suddenly he got a notification.

[Umomsux is attacking your city]

Soul: 'What the… what with the weird name?'

He went to check the status of the player, who's army is currently marching towards his kingdom.

Turns out it was just some newbie, who didn't know much about gaming or is a troll. Soul didn't do anything as when the Umomsux army almost reached his city, a trap detonated as all of his Pokemon armies died.

Soul: 'Wow… they didn't even know about traps. I don't even know what to say anymore…'

Suddenly he got a message from Umomsux.

{Why are you hacking!? Trash!}

Soul looked at the screen with a poker face as he moved his mouse cursor and blocked Umomsux. He then went to move his kingdom to a new place with much better resources.

The day ended with Soul catching a rare Shiny Gyarados to his army.
