The next book he took out had a picture of an Alakazam in meditation. In this case too, the book didn't open no matter how much force he tried.
He thought it may contain information and knowledge pertaining to the psychic energy. So he thought of using psychic powers.
He tried using psychic powers of Haunter, even then it didn't work but when Butterfree tried the book it only shook but didn't open.
Seeing he couldn't open the book, he thought of using his slowking later to help him.
He put it on the side and took out next book. It had an image of a Lucario in battle position with an aura sphere in it's hand.
He once again tried to open just for sake of confirmation but it didn't open.
He thought what might be the key for opening it. He placed the psychic and ghost type book in front of himself along with this one and tried to see a connection between these three.
After some thoughts on what linked these three different energy sources it clicked him.
The key to opening each book is the pure energy of that particular type. Haunter could use both ghost and psychic power along with poison. But it's main energy is ghost and on evolution poison too is in much pure form of energy than other.
So his psychic energy didn't open the book. Similarly since it had the aura pokemons as well as aura, only a fighting pokemon strong enough to mobilize the aura can be the key.
These books according to Alex also may be the key to mastering different energy sources humans can master.
The psychic master , occult master or aura master. Anyone of these can help him increase his strength in least time but he wasn't in a hurry.
There was still time to make a decision on this matter. Who knows if after he choose one due to incompatibility he may nit be able to learn the other two.
He then placed these three in the backpack safely and pulled out the last book of the collection. This book was without any cover image or sign. It didn't even have a title to itself.
Since the other three were so precious he felt this one too could be of use. He opened the book to find d some writing in it. They were written just like the other two but this one didn't have a key or mysterious energy needed to open.
This made Alex feel it's value was less compared to the other two. But Alex's doesn't know is that all three were linked together.
If someone managed to open one book he may be able to unlock others too of conditions are reached. And this book too had a connection related to the others.
Others checked energy signature but this one checked the mental capacity or brain power. This one is to check whether one was smart enough or his brain was developed enough.
It has to be known the brain. of genius are more developed than ordinary people. This book scanned the brain development of the owner.
If passed it will open if not it wouldn't open up.
As he opened the book he saw some writings. They weren't written in the current language but Alex had done some research on languages too.
If it was too old he couldn't understand but it was only few generation old language. On his visits to the library he learned some old language for sake of convenience in case he visit an ancient ruin to test his luck.
The words in the first page of book stated:
' To the current owner of the book, you may have found this book. So congratulations for getting my research and it's fruits at a cheaper rate, you cheap bastard. Anyway, since you got you are the winner as I am either killed or dead by old age. Anyway death is also another adventure. This book contains the research of my lifetime. Since you can open this book, you are smart as well as managed to open one of the other books of this collection.
They all are linked by a seal with my awesome knowledge. You could bow in front of my awesomeness if you want.
Here are works which may even destroy the world but they will only be revealed when you reach a certain level in mastering things in this book.
You may think how it still has powers and how it keep things in order. So let me tell you stupid fool that : it is due to mew and the tree of beginning.
Once there was a problem in it but I being the great merciful and kind-hearted person I am helped preserve it. So I asked mew to bless my research book and she enchanted it with the power of the tree.
Only when certain conditions are reached can the book be opened. And Mew too added a restriction that the person isn't someone with destructive tendencies.
you know if he is like that, how much work she had to do to protect the world and all the things after.
Anyway, this book will be destroyed when the tree of beginning has a problem like it's being destroyed or something. The only problem that happened was on time of sir Aaron a couple hundred years ago.
This might not be a problem with some defense mechanism I set up there. But who knows what happen in the future.
As my successor and only student, I hope you will make use of my inventions and research and not just store them thinking that they are too destructive or something.
And most importantly, I know the book chose you for it checked your personality matching what I want in my student yet as your teacher I once again stress, you are the student if the greatest alchemist.
You must explore the world, it's unknowns and it's mystery. Even though I spent my whole life, I only know so much.
My hope is you continue to explore because knowledge is unlimited and the mysteries in this pokemon world is at every corner.
So you should continue your research and exploration there while I will do mine in the Afterlife or whatever world there is after death.
Your most awesome and brilliant teacher,
The Greatest Alchemist.'
Reading the words in the book, he came to a conclusion that the writer was arrogant, proud, funny and also a good guy.
But he wasn't all to concerned about what impact his works bring on this world. He also got Mew's help and now he knew that only key energy will open it.
He was a tried scientist though. He even on his death thought of the next discovery. He was worthy of being respected for that.
And he somehow became a successor to an unknown scientist.
He read lod enough for his pokemons to hear and they cane to only one conclusion that,' He was senile.'
Now we know the past of the book collection but what knowledge do they contain that he revealed it may destroy the world? Stay tuned.
