Several thoughts imdiately started rushing through Alex's head.
'Why does she want to go with Lars and protect him? Is he a baby that would need a babysitter? Why can't he just train alone? Wait a minute. Is this his first experience? Has Lars really not experienced any relatively dangerous situation in these 6 months? Is this really his first ti in a dangerous area? Even if that's true, why does she want to babysit Lars for his first relatively "dangerous" job? Is he very useful as a subordinate? He shouldn't be worth it that she wants to protect him like that.'
'Wait... That ans that Lisa considers Lars to be so important that she even wants to protect him in a relatively dangerous environnt for trainers.'
Suddenly there was a gleeful grin on the face of Alex.
'I can only imagine two reasons why Lisa wants to protect him. Either she sees sothing valuable in Lars, which is highly unlikely. Or... she has an emotional attachnt to him. If that's the second reason, I can use it pretty well if necessary.'
Although Maria and Lisa are friends, you never know what will happen in the future. Knowing Lisa's weak point is definitely an advantage that might co in helpful in the future.
Alex chuckled as he said, "Haha, Executive Lisa, I wasn't expecting that you would ask sothing like this from . I didn't know that Lars was so important to you. Hmm... I wonder why is that so?"
Lisa didn't say anything for a few seconds before saying in an ice-cold tone, "That's none of your business."
"No reason to be so rude. We're friends," Alex smirked as he said, "Don't worry, I'll protect your little treasure for you. Hahaha!"
Alex couldn't help but laugh out loud at the end. He didn't know why but he found this very funny. He suddenly found a way to annoy Lisa. The tables had turned.
He could suddenly hear a loud noise through the TRH device and then a male's scream.
'Lisa is probably venting her anger on soone else,' Alex thought when he heard this noise.
She said sternly, "Alex, co to my office tomorrow morning," and cut the call without waiting for Alex's confirmation.
Alex, who was not afraid of Lisa's anger, enjoyed his little revenge on Lisa.
Both of them annoy each other just for fun, and it doesn't influence the relationship they have with each other. And that's because neither is that stupid to take offense from a joke.
Alex had chosen Crobat to be the outside while they were in the town, so he was just there, overhearing this whole conversation.
He said with a disdain look, "Are you a kid? What was up with that?"
Alex's humor is peculiar, and it is rare for him to laugh out so loud. Maybe he was enjoying this mont a bit too much.
His jolly mood stayed unchanged when he heard Crobat. Alex said with an ironic look and a smirk, "You think that's childish? What about the childish bickering you and Scizor have every other day?"
Crobat, who couldn't think of a good counter, moved his head sideways and started ignoring Alex. He was suddenly on the lookout for hidden enemies... in the middle of the city...
Alex rolled his eyes (-_-) and found a place where he can safely change his face.
He planned to go back to the underground base of Team Rocket to sleep. He would go for Lisa's mission tomorrow.
...
Pewter City, Team Rocket Underground Base.
Alex opened his eyes and stretched his body. He slowly got out of his bed and went to the washbasin with his groggy eyes. He first splashed water on his face to get out of this sleepy state before going on to brush his teeth and take a shower.
After sending a ssage to Lisa and agreeing upon a ti, he started preparing breakfast for everyone.
Although he felt that it was a waste of ti to look after Lars for a whole day, it was worth it if he gets rid of all of Lisa's debts of favors in exchange for it.
After Alex and his Pokémon had their fill of the food, it was ti to et Lisa.
He went with his fake face in the direction of Lisa's office and only needed a few minutes before he stood in front of the door of her office.
Alex knocked and went into the room ONLY after hearing the words "Co in."
Only Lisa and Lars were there, sitting next to each other and having so kind of breakfast.
Alex suppressed his urge to greet Lars with the words, 'Lars, I'm surprised that you are not eating your breakfast under the table.'
He heard from Brand how he had once seen Lars under Lisa's table, and the "ntal damage" he received due to the imagination was not small.
Alex didn't say these words at the end because he felt that these words were a bit too disrespectful. After all, Lisa is still his superior, even if it's only in the na. And, he shouldn't overdo it with his jokes.
"Alex," Lisa smiled as she said, "Thank you for taking this assignnt."
"No problem," Alex gave a polite smile, "After all, I owe you the favor."
"Ok, I only have one request for you," Lisa gave a gratified smile, "Protect the life of Lars and his Pokémon while they train in this forest. I've already explained to Lars in detail how he has to behave so that you don't have to worry about him causing you a problem."
Lars just watched and said nothing when both talked about him.
Alex looked in the direction of Lars and nodded, "That's good. I was worried that it might turn out more troubleso than you gave out initially."
"Hmm, don't worry," Lisa looked at Lars and said with a sadistic but loving smile, "He won't disagree with an order from ."
Lars blushed and looked in the direction of Lisa with a warm look.
Alex, who saw this scene, suddenly wanted to leave this room as soon as possible. BDSM is not his thing, and this type of relationship makes him very uncomfortable.
"Ok, let's go, Lars," Alex said, not wanting to stay here any longer, "Also, Lisa, If I have an ergency, I'll contact you. So you don't have to worry."
Lisa nodded and gave Lars a particular look. Lars seed to have understood it as he nodded in reply.
Alex, who saw this exchange between Lisa and Lars, was 99% sure that Lisa was protecting Lars because of emotional reasons.
Although he didn't fully understand what great qualities Lars had that Lisa fancied, that had nothing to do with him. Just knowing this fact was beneficial enough.
