Julian 'let's leave it for now, I should challenge the Gym today don't want to stay here for too long'
Julian gets dressed and is ready to go to the Gym on his way out he sees Steev training with his Bulbasaur
Julian 'Good for him'
Julian hops on his bike and rides off toward the gym when he reaches the gym he sees an orange building with whitetails covering the front door and huge lightning symbol hanging across each side of the door, Julian walks in to see two people wearing military type uniforms fixing some creators in the battlefield, when they see Julian coming in they already guessed that he is a challenger and next victim for their boss Lt. Surge, these two assistants were very arrogant and bullied young and inexperienced trainers using their boss's fame, Julian new this and didn't like them even before meeting them and now seeing there faces really annoyed them and now seeing them walking toward him with a grin which clearly showed ridicule directed towards him, it really got on his nerves
Julian "What are you two fools laughing at go and bring your boss"
Hearing Julian call them fools first they were dumbfounded as nobody had ever called them fools and now they were angry
Assistant 1 "What did you call us, say it again"
Assistant 2 "Ya say it again"

Julian "Are you two fools also deaf didn't you hear what I said bring your boss here"
This time he said it with a cold voice sending chills down their spine, they were now scared and didn't want to confront Julian so they went to call their boss after some time they came back but this time there was an extra person in front of them who was very tall and walking towards Julian with very large strides.
Lt. Surge "I heard you called my two assistant fools'
Julian "Yes if I had talked to them I would have lost some brain cells just by seeing their faces I get irritated, I don't know how is your brain still intact, you should fir them and hire some decent ones"
Lt. Surge hearing Julian talk to him like this really got embarrassed and glared at his assistant for picking a fight with this sharp tongue brat
Lt. Surge "I see you are an arrogant one, It's going to be a fun battle"
Julian "Let's get on to it I don't have much time to waste here"
Julian didn't even bother hearing Lt. Surge and just walked towards the battlefield and stood at one end of the battlefield, seeing such an arrogant fellow for the first time he was really angry and thought to injure his pokemon really badly, he walked towards the other side of the battlefield
Lt. Surge "Let's see how are you going to be so arrogant after I crush you with a devastating defeat"
Julian "ya ya I heard you now can you start the battle or are you going to just blabber around"
This time Julian really frustrated him and now he decided to be even cruel in this battle
Lt. Surge "Ok you want to battle then so be it, we both will use one pokemon each, the first pokemon which is unable to battle will lose, go Raichu" he calls out his Raichu
Julian "Finally, go Ivysaur" as he calls out his Ivysaur as Ivysaur lands on the battlefield dust rises as he is stronger, bigger and heavier than any other Ivysaur, seeing such a big Ivysaur both Lt. Surge and his Raichu gets nervous.

Assistant 1 "Hey isn't that Ivysaur a little too big"
Assistant 2 "Yes it really is big I hope boss can win this"
Listening to his assistants not having any confidence in him got him more angry and nervous at the same time
Lt. Surge "Lets starts, Raichu thunderbolt"
Julian "Ivysaur counter it with energy ball" the energy ball was created in a second as Ivysaur had got used to it and now he could shoot multiple energy ball one after another, as the energy ball and the thunder bold collided the thunderbolt was easily dispelled and the energy ball continued and hit Raichu and send him flying, Lt. Surge couldn't believe that his Raichu's move got defeated so easily as he greeted his teeth
Julian "Here, I didn't know that you were so week and after seeing so many pokemons being sent away to the pokemon center, I thought that you would at least pose a challenge, looks like I was wrong, Ivysaur lets finish this use leach seed"
Ivysaur launches a leach seed towards Raichu
Lt. Surge "Raichu quickly dodge it" Raichu dodges the leach seed by a hair inch but he didn't get a second chance to dodge the upcoming attack
Julian "Use vine whip and grab his leg and slam him till he faints"
As Raichu was still in the air after dodging the leaf seed it didn't have any means to support itself to dodge the next upcoming attack as his legs got wrapped around by vine whip and was slammed 5 times on the ground, seeing his Raichu completely toyed around like this couldn't help but feel very uncomfortable and hurt him very much as the match stopped Raichu was seen on the ground fainted and had some injuries on him, Lt. Surge ran towards Raichu and picked him up
Lt. Surge "Raichu are you okay?"
Julian "Hurts doesn't it seeing your pokemon in such bad shape, this is what you do to every other trainer who comes to challenge you, next time try to be more lenient by not injuring others pokemon how you did in the past"
Julian turns towards the two assistant and looks at them coldly
Julian "If I see you fools running around and bulling other trainers with your boss's fame, next time it will be you guys who will be badly injured" they just put their heads down not willing to make eye contact with Julian
Lt. Surge stood up and send his Raichu back to his Pokeball and walked towards Julian and handed over the Thunder Badge and walked away without saying anything, Julian also didn't say anything and called Ivysaur back
Julian 'well looks like he is still arrogant but I hope he changes his method and stops injuring other trainers pokemon so badly'
He puts the Thunder Badge in the badge case with his other three badges and walks out of the gym
Julian 'My next gym battle will be in Saffron city's gym, The gym leader in that gym will be a trouble to handle, I don't want to go and challenge that weird girl looks like I have to visit other gym and hope that brat Ash arrives there fast and turn her back to normal, lets go to the pokemon center and look at the map and see which city should I visit next'
Julian rides to the pokemon center he gets a detailed map from Nurse Joy as the one he had was a very simple one and didn't show proper terrain, he went back to the room and looked at the map
Julian "Looks like the only city which I will be able to go now is Fuchsia city, the gym leader of this gym is Koga a poison type user well I have Heatran so no worries there but before going to Fuchsia city I should visit the lavender town I know there are a large number of ghost sitings and ghost pokemon living there, hope I can catch one, so its decided Fuchsia city it is".
Julian decides and starts to prepare to head out for his next destination by buying a huge amount of food rations and ingredients for making pokemon food for his growing pokemons.

Viceroy's Pride
This story could be about the Tellask Empire, ruler of a thousand suns and faced with imminent peril at the hands of the Orakh hordes. It could be about Paltai Amberell, the scion of a noble elven House, fallen upon hard times and seeking to find the key that will restore his family's name and save the Empire itself. It could be the story of his voidship, The Viceroy's Pride, powered by magic and crewed by a team of crack marines as they search for adventure and the solution to the Empire's myriad problems. Instead, this is the story of Daniel Thrush, human electrical engineer, befuddled researcher and survivor of the debacle that was first contact with a spacefaring civilization. Due to a combination of luck, magic, hard work, and more luck he is thrust into the center of events as Earth is shoved onto a much larger stage rife with semi-immortal elves and magical kingdoms that predate the Earthly invention of agriculture. Earth is outnumbered, and we have precisely one wizard. Dan. He's not very good at it, but he's going to have to learn in a hurry or watch everything he knows get torn apart by massive spacefaring empires straight from the pages of a fantasy novel. ---------- Some readers have noted that the MC tends to be weak willed and pushed around a bit. A significant portion of the story is his character growth into not being a pushover (i.e. him being passive is in the early chapters on purpose). I'm just including this caveat/warning to make sure that readers aren't surprised/upset and that they stick with it until he learns to stand up for himself. His arc begins to crystallize around chapters 25-27. If that's too long to wait, I get it, I'm just trying to do my due diligence and warn you that the character development is a bit of a slow burn. This is NOT a harem novel. Nothing against them, just not what it is. --------- Updates Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday Feel free to bother me on our discord- Discord!

What would you wish for? What is your truest desire, Saelina?" "Power." The answer came without deliberation or pause. "The power to never starve, to stand on my own, without someone holding me up. To reject whomever I want, whenever I want." Tahlisa's gaze became more intent and she moved close to her rescuer. "Say you had that power, right here, right now. What would you do?" Saelina smiled cruelly. It was a wholly new expression, yet it somehow made her features terrifyingly beautiful, Tahlisa realized.
