Chapter 112: The Book’s Shuddering - Kai’s Gravest Mistake!
Professor Elm smiled as he looked at Meg and Cyndaquil.
"You have shown great faith in me by letting me keep an egg, miss," he told Meg, surprising Kai. "I think I should return the favor, no? Haha!"
Meg's eyes flickered, moistening instantly.
In the next moment, she snapped back to reality. She shifted her gaze and looked at Kai, asking for his permission.
Kai ignored the gaze. -/Quite generous of you, Elm,/- he said. -/I am sure Meg's having a hard time controlling her emotions now. Haha!/- Inside, he thought, Come on! Give the third Pokemon to Petyr now.
"Haha! You are right!" Professor Elm laughed back.
Kai's mouth twitched ruefully.
On the other side, Meg's face gained the brightest smile, gaining a new Pokemon. She took out her Pokeball and let Cyndaquil fill its empty status.
"I truly hoped you could prolong your stay, Professor Desmond," Elm said, putting his hands in his pants. "But I won't stop you from doing what you love to do. Take care of Totodile and Chikorita for me. Let us complete the paperwork, then you can be on your way soon."
Kai smiled and followed the Professor back to the lab.
He didn't even correct Elm. By now, he had figured out Elm's personality. Taking the name of the wrong Pokemon was nothing compared to what Kai had seen the Professor ignoring and blundering.
