Pokémon: Adventures with Sirona

It has been two years since Kaim came to the Sinnoh area, and he seems to have adapted to life here.A few years ago, he never imagined that he would be in the Sinnoh area, but life is like this, you never know what to expect.

Cam raised his head and looked at the room where Sirona was sleeping.

Chapter 2 Can you be my assistant?

When Cam became a senior student, he was assigned to the laboratory of a professor who communicated with Sirona.

Knowing from the professor that the university would hold a seminar on the archeology of Sirona, Keim attended with his classmates.Of course, the seminar was well attended by a significant number of students, even non-archaeology majors were present.After all, it is not easy to hear the current champion speak. Even if you do not specialize in archeology, you can understand the mood of wanting to listen.

The seminar went well.Sirona starts off with a conversation about the mythology of Sinnoh, explaining various histories, and her image shines through.

After the seminar, Sirona was surrounded by many students for question and answer.Although the condition was that only seminar-related questions could be asked, many students raised their hands to ask questions.

Keim, anticipating that this would take quite some time, left the lecture hall.Although he really wanted to listen to Sirona's speech, he didn't want to spend too much time, so he quickly returned to the research room.

After returning to the research room, Cam has been working on the task, and before he knew it, it was getting late.He thought it was time to go home, and when he was arranging the materials at hand, the door of the research room was opened.

There was Sirona.

Cam was surprised by the sudden visit, but he remembered that the professor in this laboratory communicated with Sirona, so he was able to keep calm.

"Oh, are you a student here?"

"Ah, yes. My name is Cam."

"Yes, Kem-kun. I'm Sirona. I'm working as an archaeologist in the Sinnoh region."

Sirona, who speaks elegantly, looks very beautiful up close.

Her hair extends to near her knees like silk, her beautiful silver-gray eyes, and her confident mouth.

Cam looked at Sirona, thinking that such beauties are rare, and felt a little out of place.

"I know. I attended the seminar just now."

"Oh yeah? Great. What do you think?"

"The content was interesting. I learned a lot as an archeology major."

"thanks."

"I'm here to see the professor."

"Yeah. The climax of the students' questions has passed. Let me ask a good question."

"Sorry, I'm in a meeting right now. It might take a while. I just went out not long ago, so."

“We just missed it. Bad timing.”

Sirona's eyes fell on the information on Kaim's desk.

"This is?"

"Ah, this is a proposal for my research topic. The topic is about unknown totems that have not yet been explained."

"Totem Unknown. It is indeed a very interesting subject. May I have a look?"

"Okay, but even if the students' stuff is shown to professionals, it's only entertainment, right?"

"No. It doesn't mean that things made by people with little experience have no value. Even if the experience is not deep, as long as it is made by that person with all his strength, even if there are mistakes, it still has great value."

"yes"

It really deserves to be a champion, or rather, it seems that it cannot be compared to an ordinary student, Cam thought so, and handed the report to Sirona.

Sirona took the report without saying a word and began to read it.

After a moment of silence, Sirona took a deep breath, returned the report to Cam, and said:

“Excellent, this report.

Cam's expression on Sirona's flickering eyes was indescribable.The fact that the report was praised by a professional archaeologist was very gratifying, but his mind was twisted into thinking it was a compliment, and his mood did not allow him to be genuinely happy.

"Uh, thanks"

"Ah, do you think this is a compliment?"

"Yes"

"Really, can't you be sincerely happy. But, the report is really good"

"Where is it good?"

"The first is the observation of Unknown Totem. Unknown Totem is a very mysterious Pokémon at present. There are writings called unknown script in ancient ruins, so we know that it is a Pokémon that has existed since ancient times. But about them Almost nothing is known about their ecology. Although their habitats can be determined and limited to a certain extent, their breeding methods and food are almost unknown. So you focus on the habitat first."

"How can a student understand things that even adults in society have not been able to thoroughly investigate? So it is natural to start with what we can understand first."

"Yes. But surprisingly, not many people can do this. Gradually deciphering their ecology is very time-consuming."

Ecology can be summed up in only one word, and there may also be significant differences due to individual differences.Therefore, studying ecology requires the collection of a considerable number of samples.

"It's really not easy to do it. It's not easy to actually do the research."

"I know. But in this report you have collected samples based on what you know from the internet and reference books, and when you decide to do it, you do it, right?"

"Then do it."

"You see, your passion is real. And your observation point is not only these. The shape of the habitat, sums up the characteristics of the place. So this method is a very good perspective study.”

""

Having never experienced such direct praise, Keim was confused.

"I didn't expect you to praise an unfinished report so much."

"It's because the observation point is good."

"thanks."

“For the archaeological community, people with this new perspective are indispensable. While inheriting the excellent traditional culture, it is also important to introduce new ethos.”

"Then Sirona is enough in this regard."

"It's not going to work with just me. If there's no one following, then when I'm not around, it's over."

"It seems to be based on the premise that I entered the world of archaeology."

"Isn't that right?"

"Maybe."

Cam cast his gaze out the window.

The sun had completely set and the street lights illuminated the college campus.

“I came to university to find what I wanted to do, but I couldn’t find it. I chose archeology because I like history and Pokémon, but I don’t know if I really want to do it.”

"That's right. What you pursue and what you like are not necessarily equal."

“I was always thinking too much and getting lost. These guys are not good looking either.”

Cam stroked the Poké Ball on the table and lowered his head.

Seeing Cam like this, Sirona crossed her arms.

Then, she suddenly said something unexpected.

"Cam, would you like to be my assistant?"

The proposal comes out of the blue, causing Cam to lose his ability to speak.

"what?"

"You're looking for something you want to do, right? So would you like to study archeology with me? If you can find interest in studying archeology with me, that's great too. By my side, you can see A different world, maybe you can find something you want to do. And next year I’m going to be so busy that I need an assistant. How? I don’t think it’s a bad idea.”

This offer is definitely a mouthwatering opportunity for other students.Even Cam himself appreciated the offer enough to nod without hesitation.

But even if he accepted the offer, Keim had one major doubt.He could not accept the offer until this doubt was resolved.

"Thank you so much for the offer, I'd love to say yes right away, but"

"Oh, do you have any questions?"

"Why would you care so much about a student you just met?"

Cam and Sirona just met.Even if he had a good eye for archeology, it would be hard for him to imagine her being so generous to him.

Sirona is both a scholar and a champion, and her time is precious.Why should she take time out to care about Cam?Cam didn't understand.

"Because you have merit I can see that you take Pokémon very seriously."

"?"

“And I have confidence in the human eye. You can’t let a young guy with potential go to waste just because he doesn’t know what he wants to do.”

Cam didn't doubt himself because of the champion's words.While there were still some places where she couldn't quite believe it, her enthusiasm for her own immature point of view made him smile a little.

"Because you said so, I have no reason to refuse."

"So, would you like to be my assistant?"

"After I graduate, right? Please wait for that time."

"It's okay. I'll teach you a lot before you graduate. I can even give you instructions on how to fight."

Facing Sirona who gave provocative eyes and stretched out his hand, Cam didn't know how to respond, he held Sirona's hand with a wry smile, and shook hands.

Afterwards, they exchanged contact information, and Cam occasionally turned to Sirona for questions, corrections and guidance, and Sirona would get back to him whenever she had the time.

However, as the contact continued, Cam discovered that Sirona was actually quite lazy.

First of all, when contacting him, Sirona basically used a personal computer with a camera to make calls, but there were always research materials and other things scattered behind her, and it was hard to say that it was a tidy room.Also, due to her busy schedule, she doesn't seem to care too much about her diet.It is said that she sometimes only solves breakfast with ice cream, which is completely at odds with her usual elegant demeanor and confuses Cam.

Sirona is also a person. Cam doesn't think she is a perfect superman, but because she plans to rent a room near Sirona's laboratory and residence to receive her guidance after graduation, the thought of going to her room is a headache.

Cam is a bit on the neat side and wants to do everything right.While he won't force others to be tidy, he can't stand if the other's lifestyle is too unhealthy or lazy.As a result, he was called "Mom" among his schoolmates.

In his absence, Cam himself cannot handle Sirona's room.He decided that the first thing to do after graduation was tidy up Sirona's room.

"Some time ago, I met a girl who was traveling."

"Oh?"
