---------------------

Daniel's strongest Beedrill was not only one level higher than stated but also an SS-ranked Pokemon with a Shallow Diamond Potential.

Alex wasn't surprised that this Beedrill could reach the Shallow Diamond potential considering this Beedrill is a Born-S rank Pokemon.

If a Pokemon is born with a Shallow Gold or Gold potential, it's relatively easy to achieve Shallow Diamond potential, with enough training and money.

With Alex's support, it's not difficult for Daniel to find good-paying missions and collect enough money.

Alex half expected that Daniel's level "52" Pokemon might not be an S-rank Pokemon as he that level from that Beedrill saw.

'That's probably why Daniel entered level 52 and not its real level. It's easier to hide like this. pretty smart.'

If there was a difference in level, nobody would notice it unless Alex tested it with a machine.

And even if Alex later had it tested with a machine, Daniel can say that it just leveled up and that he didn't put in the wrong data on purpose.

Alex sat down next to Daniel as he said with a smile, "I noticed that one of your pokemon levels up particularly fast this time."

Daniel just gave Alex an emotionless look as he replied, "What do you mean?"

Alex showed a harmless smile as he said, "Nothing. I'm just a bit of an expert at level-up speed, and I noticed that one Pokemon from your team is particularly weird... for its potential"

Daniel's emotionless expression collapsed upon hearing this and he looked at Alex with wary eyes.

He started to show panic in his eyes as he saw that Alex take a step closer to him.

Alex continued to smile harmlessly as he said, "You don't have to be scared. If I wanted to kill you, you'd already be dead."

Daniel calmed down a bit and said in a dry tone, "What do you want?"

Alex said with a casual expression, "Why do you think I want anything from you? I was just saying that I suspect you lied about the potential of one of your Pokemon and lied to me about it. That's not an unforgivable mistake but..."

Then he showed a serious expression. "I want to hear the truth first."

Daniel felt as if he was standing in front of a cliff that could lead to his death if he took one wrong step.

The completely indifferent and emotionless look that Alex showed him only reinforced this feeling.

Daniel said with a serious expression, "I really lied about the information on one of my Pokemon. Beedrill is not only level 53 but has an SS-rank Potential."

Alex showed a satisfied expression upon hearing this, "Very good. You didn't start to justify yourself... you're just telling the whole truth."

He flashed a faded smile as he said, "I forgive you."

Alex then said with a casual expression, "It makes sense that you're scared of telling someone stronger than you that you have an SS-ranked Pokemon. But.. It's also a bit stupid of you.."

Alex showed a slightly disappointed expression. "Have you forgotten what I said to you when we first met you? Your worth is higher than several S-rank Pokemon and not so easily replaceable for me. I thought you understood me a bit better now."

Daniel's eyes started to calm down again as he said, "I wasn't sure if the same applies to an SS-ranked Pokemon."

Alex revealed a smile as he said, "What am I supposed to do with a level 53 SS-rank Pokemon? Even if I kill you and try to steal this Pokemon, do you think it will listen to me?"

Pokemon above level 39 are extremely difficult to control and the only possible effective way to control it is if that Pokemon belongs to this trainer from an early level.

Alex then said in a calm tone, "Or did you think I wanted your Beedrill's corpse?"

Daniel didn't say anything for a moment.

Alex shows a disappointed expression as he says, "That's so stupid. You do realize that a corpse from an SS-rank mid-Elite Bedrill is worth less than multiple S-rank Pokemon below the elite rank, right?"

Daniel, feeling that his intellect had been insulted said, "I just thought that... that the SS rank is just too big of a temptation. But... Now that you point it out, my actions seem really... stupid."

Alex could understand why Daniel was so scared. An SS-ranked Pokemon is no small temptation to most trainers, and there are quite a few crazy people who would even try to capture and control it at level 53.

"Ok, let's not talk about it anymore."

Alex then showed his emotionless and cold eyes again as he said, "But, this is the last chance I'm giving you. Don't lie to me."

Daniel looked at Alex with a serious expression as he said, "Yes, boss. "

Maria interrupted the conversation by saying, "Elise, it's here." after that she left the room without a word to receive Elise.

After several seconds she can go back into the training room with Elise.

Alex looked at the information on Elise's Pokemon and found that everything about them was true.

He walked in front of Elise and said with a warm smile, "Are you ready?"

Elise flashed a charming smile as she said, "For you always, Boss."

Maria, who was standing behind Elise, looked at her with an ice-cold look. She just barely managed not to clench her hands in fists and beat Elise to the ground.

She felt personally offended that this b*tch dared to flirt with her boyfriend before her.

Alex recognized Maria's look immediately and he started showing a cheerful smile when he saw that deadly look from Maria.

'that's so cute'

Alex's perception of cute is very bizarre.
