Chapter 159: 159

"One day, your father, Scizor (Scyther), and Crobat (Golbat) were walking through this forest when we suddenly came across a group of Pokémon surrounding a single Pokémon. This group included 8 Pinsir, and the one being surrounded was your mother."

"Your mother was many times stronger than the group of Pinsir and normally would have defeated them with ease. But your mother, who was weakened by your birth, was not in a fighting condition and could not fight like always after the surprise attack she received."

Gardevoir, who heard this, became a lot sadder and began to sob. She felt like her mother only died because she was born.

Alex, who heard this, knew that he had hurt Gardevoir with it but knew better than to lie to Gardevoir. Above all, he hoped that the Gardevoir will think back to her mother positively and not as a painful reminder even if it hurts now.

"Unfortunately, the Pinsir group badly damaged the egg and almost killed you. Your mother was so angry that she fought this group of Pinsir to death despite the injuries.

"With the grave injury, she was on the verge of death, so she quickly defeated the 8 Pinsir with 1 hit. But in doing so, she overused her remaining vitality and increased her injuries."

"At this point, I wanted to go to heal her and save her life. Even though she was grievously injured and in a critical situation, she could still have survived."

Alex paused for a short while before continuing. "Although your mother must have sensed my intention, she used Healing Wish without hesitation of a second and entirely used her vitality. She put all her life energy into this 1 move to increase the chance of saving your life."

"Your mother was willing to sacrifice herself for even the chance to save your life."

Gardevoir, who heard this, began to weep as she looked at her mother's tombstone. She didn't understand why her mother would do such a stupid thing. She would like to say to her mother, "It's not worth it." But unfortunately, she could only look at the tombstone.

Gardevoir and Alex sat by the gravestone for almost an hour and started talking about several things.

After the talk, even though Gardevoir's face was still messed up, she had at least stopped crying.

Gardevoir got up slowly and sadly began to walk away from the tombstone.

Alex, who saw this, couldn't help but feel that he really didn't solve this situation optimally. And that Gardevoir's pain had increased because of his inability.

He looked at Gardevoir with eyes full of guilty and said, "I'm sorry."

With worn-out eyes from crying for a long time, Gardevoir looked at her father confused and asked, "Why are you apologizing?"

Alex didn't say anything for a few seconds when he finally said, "I know that I'm not a good father or person and actually not a good influence."

"To be honest, I don't understand why your mother didn't teleport the egg to another location."

Alex paused for a few seconds when he said, "Honestly, your dad is a really bad person."

Gardevoir began to look at her father and said out loud, "What are you talking about? You are the best father I could wish for. If you dare to say something like that again, I'll get mad."

Alex slightly smiled as he said in a scornful tone, "I am greedy, arrogant, manipulative, and often apathetic. I have killed several people or got them killed. I even tortured Crobat at our first meeting so that he would listen to me. I see all living beings as useful objects and not as living beings, except for a couple of individuals."

Alex paused and started to laugh mockingly, "Haha! Although I'm not a monster, I'm really not a good person."

"Gardevoir, you are by far the nicest Pokémon or person I've seen and actually almost completely unsuitable to me."

"I know that a child sees his parents as..."

Before Alex could say anything further, Gardevoir suddenly shouted.

"I KNOW. I KNOW. So stop talking about it."

Gardevoir looked at Alex with anger and began to speak too loudly, "Why do you have to say that. I'm already ignoring what you're doing and not asking anything about it."

"You are my father! And even if you are a monster, which you are not. if you think that you can get rid of me with such words, then you can forget it. I am your daughter, no matter what you say."

Alex, who heard these words, didn't know what to say for a moment.

After a few seconds, he said, "I'm not trying to get rid of you. I really see you as my daughter, but I want you to understand what kind of person your father is."

The tears she had stopped with so much effort started rolling again.

She said with much effort, "I know my father. You are a much better person than you just said. I know that father is also very self-critical and judges himself worse than he really is."

Although Alex thinks the Gardevoir is living in a fantasy world, he said nothing. He put an arm around Gardevoir's shoulder and slowly walked in the direction of their family with her, who was starting to get worried.

All of Alex's Pokémon had gloomy expressions, and no one tried to say anything when they walked away together.

Alex, who saw the sad faces of his family, said quietly, "Let's go home."
