Pokémon Simulator: Stealing Opportunities from the Destiny Child

"How about adding one more low-quality Thunder Stone?" Jayden gritted his teeth and suggested.

"You're looking down on me?" Ethan's expression changed as he pretended to be angry.

He got up and shouted toward the living room, "Luna! Show him out!"

The deal was done.

Ethan had already secured the Thunder Stone and Fire Stone.

As for the most critical piece—the Pokémon shop—its full ownership, including the land rights, was transferred to Ethan.

Even if Jayden's family refused to follow through, there was no way Ethan would return the items.

"No problem!" Jayden agreed resolutely.

However, the moment Jayden left, the warmth on Ethan's face vanished, replaced by a cold sneer.

"Champion? You better pray nothing happens to you tomorrow!"

In his previous life, Ethan didn't agree to this deal.

That decision resulted in disaster.

The next day, when he entered the breeding house, he was attacked by a crazed terrorist.

Although his life wasn't in danger, he had to spend ten days in the hospital recovering.

It wasn't until right before the semester started that he was discharged.

Due to the attack, the Master's Home breeding house was forced to temporarily shut down, costing Ethan his chance to get a Pokémon ahead of others.

But they say every loss comes with a gain.

Back then, when Ethan rejected the trade, Jayden left without taking Pidgey and Oddish.

Thinking it was fate, Ethan decided to keep both Pokémon by his side, which led to his deep bond with Bellossom.

As for whether Jayden would survive the next day—Ethan had no intention of warning him.

In his previous life, Ethan was devastated by his parents' disappearance.

Jayden's family took advantage of the situation, claiming everything under the guise of family responsibility.

When Ethan tried to reclaim his parents' assets, he was ruthlessly humiliated.

The most painful part?

Jayden's family sold him and his cousin Elena out to Tyler—a so-called 'Child of Fate'—to curry favor.

Elena, who was incredibly close to Ethan, refused to join Tyler's faction.

For that, Elena and her Bellossom were killed by Cassandra, a woman working for Tyler.

That tragedy was the main reason Ethan fell into despair and jumped off a cliff.

Ethan wasn't stupid.

He figured it all out—Jayden's family targeted him because of Tyler.

Tyler, who had once been his close friend, became his greatest enemy over a girl.

While Tyler, blessed by fate, grew stronger, Ethan was relentlessly suppressed and destroyed for something as trivial as 'liking Aria.'

That deep-seated grudge wasn't something a second chance at life could easily erase.

[Cassandra…]

[Jayden's family…]

[My parents, Elena, Bellossom…]

[They all suffered because of the Child of Fate.]

A chilling killing intent flashed in Ethan's eyes.

Since fate had chosen him to oppose the Child of Fate, he didn't mind being the villain this time.

"Tyler!" Ethan thought.

Even if the world favors you, so what?

You may have fate on your side, but I have the system.

I know every step you'll take in the future.

From now on, I'll always be one step ahead.

I will take your women.

Take your Pokémon.

Take your opportunities.

Take your glory.

And in the end—

I'll destroy your life.
