Pokémon: Adventures with Sirona

Page 103

"...?"

Sirona froze.

"I see, there are challengers."

"The schedule that Sirona said has been booked. The gym trainer can change it, but the gym owner cannot."

Kaim, who defeated Sumo in a fight the other day, was appointed as the gym chief, albeit as a substitute.Therefore, it cannot be easily absent.

Depending on the gym, the number of gym leaders may not be many, because they have other jobs, so they may not need to worry too much.

"It seems that the rumors about the replacement of the gymnasium director have spread. As far as I know, Denji and Suzuna, who are both gymnasium directors, know about this, but the challenger seems to know a lot."

Gym leaders are all league-approved trainers, so if they are replaced or replaced for any reason, they will be officially notified by the Pokémon League.In this case, the Pokémon League has announced that Sumo will be absent due to studying abroad, and Kaim will take over as the curator of the gym.The notification will be sent directly to the Gym Leader, and challengers will be able to learn about it from the Pokémon League announcement.So, there's nothing wrong with the challengers knowing this, but Kym, who just became the gym master, doesn't know how it works.

"Why did the number of challengers increase instead?"

"He's not the new gym leader, he's just a substitute. You think the substitute is weaker, so you can get the badge easily."

"sorry."

In fact, Cam is stronger now.To that end, several challengers have already been hit back by criticism as surrogates.

It was difficult for Sirona to forgive her disciple for being looked down upon, but she also understood that being angry with Sirona would have no effect.So I won't say any more.

"By the way, where is Xiao Xiangtao going to study abroad?"

Sumo Studying abroad is a factor in being a gym curator.Sirona had also heard this in Kaim's biography.Sirona thinks it's important to see the outside world and understand what power means to her, so Sumo's behavior makes sense.

And as long as you go to study abroad, there is a place to go.

“I heard you are in the Galar region.

"The Galar region! You've come a long way."

"The owner of the fighting gymnasium over there seems to be quite close in age.

"Working hard among gym leaders. That's a good thing."

"The Union will pay the full cost of studying abroad."

"Haha, this is a good deal."

Although it's the Pokémon League, Kaim doesn't think he'll pay full price, so he's surprised when he hears about sumo, but gets it right away.

“This is because Sumo has a record of being a gym captain.

"Yeah, it's a pity it didn't hit."

"That's it. It's bad."

"I can't help it. I'm the one who's going to speak at the meeting. I think it's a good stimulus for Cam, but I can't throw away my job."

As the curator of the gymnasium, he needs to deal with challengers, and because of the perfect transportation system in Towari City, the number of challengers is relatively large.In addition, I also have to manage the gymnasium, so I have to attend this academic meeting.

"Place?"

"This is the town of Alamos."

"time limit?"

"The announcement itself is the second day, but the whole conference is going to be four days. It looks like there will be a social gathering on the fourth night."

Cam poked his smartphone, which revealed an image of the town of Alamos.

"You haven't been to Alamos Town yet."

"Oh, are you interested?"

"Isn't this the city where the Tower of Time and Space is located? This is a tower that enshrines Dialga and Palkia in a different form from Mount Tian'an. I'm very curious."

The tower is associated with mythology and has historical value.Keim, although immature, is also a scholar.There is no reason not to be interested in getting involved in a professional field.

"Unlike the Spear Pillar, it's relatively new and hasn't existed since the Age of Mythology, but it's definitely related, so I can understand why you're curious."

"The public transport in this area is not very good, so it is difficult to get there.

The conscientious and responsible Kaim earnestly completes the work assigned to him and never gives up on his work.I understand, but I can forgive you for feeling a little disappointed.

“Let's go again next time”

"Yes"

We all thought, "I'm going to be lonely," but we didn't say anything.

With my hair blown by the wind, I pulled my suitcase and walked on the bridge leading to the city.

"Alamos, is it?"

Alamos Town, a city with huge towers.

It is not far from Mio City, but it is remote, and it is one of the few places in the Sinnoh area that Bai Nai has not been to.

The city was built on a large island floating in the center of a huge lake with a wide range of elevations.In addition, many buildings are very distinctive, with wavy roofs.

"It's a very distinctive city and I wonder if it's a bit like Alto Mare."

What the towns of Altomare and Alamos have in common is that they are both "water cities."Of course, Altomare is located in the sea and the town of Alamos is located in the lake. The geographical conditions such as altitude are also quite different, so the characteristics of the towns themselves are also quite different.

"There's only one bridge that connects the city and if that bridge goes down, we're effectively going to be an island."

The area around Alamos Town, even in the Sinnoh area, has few disasters.Disasters are rare in the Sinnoh region itself, but data suggests that the area around it is especially rare.Perhaps only one bridge connects the cities, as evidence suggests that a connection to the outside world is enough.

It is not known whether Dialga and Palkiya have the protection of Alamos Town to deal with those disasters.

There is a tower called "Tower of Time and Space", and there are few disasters in the city with that tower.I think there may be some kind of causal relationship, but it really can't be discovered by investigation.

Looking down from the bridge railing.The quiet water spread out, but because of the height, nothing could be seen except the water.

"This town is built on a large mesa, isn't it?"

The shape of the lowest part of the cliff has a typical mouse shape.This is the shape formed by the erosion of rocks by long-term water flow.

Girona believes that it was originally a layer that protruded due to crustal movement, but the lower layer is softer, so it took on this shape.

As soon as she entered the town, Sirona felt the calm and lively urban landscape that she couldn't feel in other small towns.

This is an exotic street different from Altomare, but the atmosphere is not much different from the Sinnoh area.Sirona was very excited to think about the history of this city.

"Wonder what kind of history this town has. I'm looking forward to it, Kai."

I turned my eyes to the right, but the figure of my beloved who was usually there was gone.Over the past few years, Keim has been showing up at places of historical interest and first-time visits.Out of habit, I almost called out Cam's name, but he wasn't here.

"I see. You didn't come this time, did you?"

I know, but I still feel alone.

But that's not to say you can't do anything without Cam.Sirona stands ready, completes the announcement and returns with dignity.

After storing her luggage at the residence, Sirona went shopping.

A lot of natural scenery is preserved in the city, and the shape of the buildings is also different from Kaminacho, where Sirona was born, and Mio City, where she lives now, or more precisely, the vicinity of Mio City.This may be the result of the optimal building shape for the land.Historically, the shapes of houses and buildings have been adapted to the climate and nature of the land.So is the shape of this building in the town of Alamos.

Chapter 52 Tower of Time

“It's a beautiful city”

After walking for a while, Bai Nai found something like an entrance, leading to somewhere.

Unlike the entrance to the Secret Garden of Altomare, it doesn't feel hidden.The gardens of Altomare are hidden because it is a necessary base to protect the city itself, but this is rare.I worry about a lot of people.

"Is this a garden?"

When I entered from the entrance, I came to a garden with a fountain.

The quiet and bright garden is a very cozy place.

"it's beautiful"

"Oh, is it?"

When I looked in the direction of the sound, I saw a blond woman standing there.Pink clothes paired with black tights give it a gentle vibe.

"Are you the champion Sirona?"

"Yes Yes."

"Wow! Amazing! I've never met such a famous person!"

The woman was a little excited, and corrected her place with a surprised voice.

"Sorry, I was so excited. I've seen it before on BattleTV"

"Hehe, I'm glad you saw me."
