"Is there anything else?" Cain continued to ask.
Next, Paul explained to Cain his main combat techniques and the tactics he might employ in various situations.
Additionally, to win Cain's favor, he even revealed Vexor's interests and little-known habits.
Paul told everything he knew without leaving out any details.
As a follower, it must be said that he really had deep knowledge and had "sold out" Vexor without any reservation.
"That's about it. I know so of his escape thods; it's likely a one-ti use enhancent item, but I don't have specific details—he never ntioned them."
"Don't worry, Lord Cain, there are many things I can't tell all at once, but if you allow to stay by your side, you'll have a great advantage when you face him next ti."
Paul talked until his mouth went dry.
Although much of what Paul said was useful to Cain.
Cain nodded to indicate he understood.
When Paul thought he might survive, Cain said, "Alright, thank you. Arbok, take care of him!"
"Wait, wait, wait, why? Why? I've told you everything, I swear I haven't lied at all. Besides, compared to Miyamoto, I think I'm a bit stronger. Even though my Pokémon have died, there are many Bug-type Pokémon in the forest. If you let capture one or two, I'll recover quickly! I'm more useful than Miyamoto!"
Miyamoto's face darkened.
However, Paul was telling the truth. If both were at their peak, he, with a certain advantage in Flying types, would be slightly superior to Miyamoto.
Moreover, Miyamoto specialized in Fighting-type Pokémon, which were hard to find on this island, while Bug-types, which he excelled in, were abundant on the island.
This way, his strength would recover quickly.
And since he knew Vexor so well, Paul would be the best ally for Cain to face Vexor, wouldn't he?
But Cain showed no interest whatsoever.
"What you say is true, and it's true you would recover faster than Miyamoto," Cain said.
"Yes, so if the lord accepts my submission, no matter how you wish to control , I can definitely do better than Miyamoto," Paul continued.
Cain nodded, acknowledging his point. "But there's sothing I can't accept."
Without waiting for Paul to ask, Cain continued, "You're truly repulsive; being so close to you makes feel very uncomfortable."
"Repulsive? But didn't you say you'd let go if I gave you information about Vexor?"
"Did I say that? I don't rember saying it. I'm sorry, you really give the creeps. Arbok, take care of him." Cain gestured as if he were looking at sothing disgusting.
"Shaah!" Arbok nodded and, without giving Paul a chance to speak, tensed all its muscles and quickly immobilized him.
The air in Paul's chest was imdiately forced out; unable to breathe, his face turned red, and his eyes opened wide.
He stared at Cain and Miyamoto, as if wanting to rember them both.
But he no longer had the ability to speak; with Arbok's strength, it took no more than a second to end him.
With the sound of bones cracking, when Arbok relaxed its muscles, Paul's body, lying on the ground, was completely twisted.
Cain, with a look of disgust, told Miyamoto, "Take everything he has. His storage space might contain so valuable items, although there will probably be many repulsive things. Don't show them to , just take what has value."
Seeing Cain's look of disgust, Miyamoto breathed a sigh of relief. He was genuinely afraid Cain might want to keep Paul to face Vexor.
After all, soone so disturbing both psychologically and physically was really infectious to be around.
Who knows how Vexor put up with him?
Cain approached the woman sitting on the rock, with a sowhat complicated expression.
Jasmine, one of the strong people among the participants on Trial Island, hadn't had much interaction with Cain, and they had avoided interfering with each other's affairs.
But Cain genuinely admired Jasmine for gathering the won on Trial Island and protecting their interests and physical and ntal safety.
If it weren't for Jasmine's presence, most won and girls without strength on Trial Island could only have survived by selling their bodies in exchange for protection from the stronger ones.
But were the truly strong so easily enticed by won's bodies?
In the end, they would only beco unfortunate people.
Jasmine had prevented this for three months, but in the final trial, soone had done it anyway, and the result was disastrous.
"I helped you kill him, so I don't think you'll object to giving that map fragnt," Cain said, looking her in the eyes.
In the woman's eyes, Cain saw gratitude, regret, hatred, and a desire for death. Without her Pokémon and her body useless, she no longer had any desire to live.
"I understand; I won't say anything about it. You can go in peace," Cain said after a brief silence.
Hearing his words, a trace of relief appeared in the woman's eyes, after which her expression showed no emotion, as if she were a plant.
"Haunter, hypnotize her," Cain said to the air.
Haunter, who had been hiding in his shadow, slowly erged and used the move Hypnosis on the woman, who imdiately fell asleep.
"Retrieve the map from her body and then inject the poison. Ursaring, dig a grave and bury her," Cain ordered.
Although Ursaring was now Miyamoto's Pokémon, it didn't dare disobey Cain's orders. It quickly ran over and began digging a hole in the ground, one of its specialties.
Quickly, Haunter, after finishing its task, approached Cain with a map fragnt in hand, while the woman's body, after being injected with poison, began to show a purple hue and stopped breathing.
"She's an unfortunate person. In your next life, make sure to have your own strength," Cain murmured as he watched Ursaring bury her in the ground.
Cain took the map fragnt Haunter handed him. His points device vibrated briefly before stopping completely.
