Chapter 453: Becoming a Dad Again
If this guess is true, then there might be big trouble today.
The Alva from decades later...
Must master very incredible mysterious science and technology!
For example, the [Mega Wave] that will come out more than ten years later, he must have already mastered it!
"Hehe, long time no see, Volcanion."
The old Alva glanced at Will and Volcanion, then raised one hand,
"Watch closely, this great power!"
Only saw a ring shaped like a Key Stone on his index finger shoot out rings of black-purple halos.
The halo wrapped Metagross inside; soon his figure couldn't be seen.
"Roar roar roar!!"
In the halo, Metagross let out a heart-tearing roar.
When the black-purple halo dispersed.
What reappeared in place was actually a Mega Metagross with eyes glowing purple!
Sure enough!
This guy is the Alva from the future!
The Mega Wave is a technology Alva invented using innovative mysterious science; what this person used just now is the Mega Wave from the anime!
And.
In this period now.
Even the Pokémon League doesn't have the concept of Mega Evolution yet, let alone others.
No concept.
Naturally cannot research in the direction of Mega Evolution.
This also rules out this person being Alva's ancestor or grandfather generation character.
It must be someone from the future who fully understands Mega Evolution who could develop the Mega Wave!
In the anime.
Which is more than ten years later.
The approximately forty-year-old Alva's bewitching of the little prince died halfway, and he also encountered obstruction from the eldest princess and Ash's group, welcoming a failing ending when about to succeed.
But!
The Alva at that time should have successfully escaped!
Although Ash-Greninja threw a Water Shuriken destroying Alva's escape backpack, it didn't destroy it completely.
The end of the scene only showed Alva falling from the spaceship towards the forest, but didn't give his specific ending.
Perhaps.
Alva survived from then.
Then invented some incredible technology allowing him to come to this era, and persuaded himself in this period to act in advance!
But in that case.
This Alva should have also encountered them once at the age of 27 or 28.
But looking at Alva's attitude, it was obviously not like that.
He only knew Volcanion.
Obviously didn't know Will.
This also means this old Alva didn't meet the Alva from the future when he was 28, much less experience what is happening now.
'A future from a parallel world?'
Will only felt the more he thought, the more outrageous it became.
But.
Traveling from the future back to decades ago, knowing Volcanion but not knowing Will.
There is only one possibility.
That is Will didn't exist in that world itself.
"Hey! Stop spacing out! Leave this guy to me, you go save Magearna!"
Volcanion's eyes were scarlet.
His gaze stared deadly at Alva and Mega Metagross, eyes full of disbelief.
But what's more important right now is Magearna!
"Mm!"
Will nodded.
Tapped his foot.
Extreme Speed and Agility opened simultaneously; he instantly disappeared in place.
Inside the cockpit.
'The Metagross here can Mega Evolve; then the Charizard Cynthia is facing over there wouldn't also...'
Will was slightly worried.
But only a little bit.
With that Charizard's strength, even if Mega Evolved, he might not necessarily be a match for Cynthia and Garchomp.
Considering this.
Will immediately started observing his surroundings.
Then he found Magearna paralyzed in the corner.
Just that at this time Magearna's chest was hollow; the originally red eyes became dim and ashen.
Magearna in this state was no longer her true self.
This is just a shell without a soul.
The real Magearna...
"Found it."
Will ran to the deepest part of the cockpit.
There was a high platform here; on the platform placed a container composed of several continuously cross-rotating copper rings.
And right in the center of these copper rings was exactly the Soul-Heart storing Magearna's soul!
At this time the Soul-Heart bloomed with pink brilliance.
It was constantly outputting energy to supply the flight of this flying fortress.
"I remember it was..."
Will recalled the plot of the original work.
Ash used Alva's walking stick to destroy this thing back then, then could retrieve the Soul-Heart inside.
So.
"Just need to destroy this thing."
Will muttered.
Raised his hand and waved.
An Aura Sphere was instantly smashed onto those rings of copper rings.
Boom!
Crack.
The device from 500 years ago was more fragile than imagined; collapsed instantly blasted by Will's Aura Sphere.
Rumble~
The whole flying fortress trembled.
The flying fortress having lost its energy source couldn't hold on for long; afraid it would soon fall towards the earth.
Underfoot is the Azoth Kingdom.
Once this thing is allowed to fall in Azoth, things will be quite bad!
Will reached out picking up the Soul-Heart, walking quickly in front of Magearna.
He pinched the Soul-Heart gesturing a bit.
Tentatively placed the round mechanical heart into the vacant spot on Magearna's chest.
Automatically closed.
Perfect fit.
Waited for a moment.
Will watched Magearna's eyes reappear with pink light, so he stepped back two steps.
Now there is a problem.
Magearna's Soul-Heart being taken off in this process, is equivalent to undergoing a formatting.
Used on a mechanical creature.
Means already dead.
Even getting the Soul-Heart back, reinstalling it on this body, is just reinstalling the system.
In other words.
This cannot be called resurrection.
Reincarnation is more suitable.
This means although this mechanical creation is still Magearna.
But very likely already lost her original memories, becoming a new Magearna who only has level but understands nothing.
In the anime.
Magearna logically was already dead.
This point was certified by Meowth, indisputable.
And when initially reinstalling the Soul-Heart, Magearna indeed was in a completely unconscious state; others talking to her she also looked like she couldn't understand, making no response.
Until Volcanion returned from battle.
Magearna then retrieved her memories and consciousness.
Probably achieved true resurrection relying on some mysterious power like bonds again.
And right now.
Will is not sure if that situation can be reproduced.
After all, Volcanion is still battling outside now, not here.
That is to say.
Although this Magearna woke up.
But might be like a baby just born understanding nothing.
How should Will explain the current situation to her?
Magearna, having "opened her eyes", stared blankly at Will in front of her, curiously tilting her head.
"My name is Will, the situation is like this now..."
Will seeing this appearance of Magearna suddenly felt a headache.
He quickly spoke briefly explaining the ins and outs to her.
Actually he highly doubted whether Magearna was listening.
Because this child's Aura was full of bewilderment.
Magearna didn't respond, continuing to stare at Will.
"Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? The situation is relatively urgent now; if your condition is okay, I hope you can help us defeat the bad guys outside, with Volcanion's strength he's probably struggling to cope."
Will reached out pressing on Magearna's head, using Aura Power to detect Magearna's body.
He turned his head looking out the window of the cockpit.
Although having expectations, seeing it with his own eyes still couldn't help being surprised.
Volcanion was actually chased and beaten by Mega Metagross.
Will could tell.
It's really not Volcanion being weak, but that Mega Metagross is too strong.
In the end.
That Metagross is abnormal.
Had a height of 4 meters before Mega Evolution; an ordinary Metagross is only 1.6 meters.
Presumably affected by too fast strength growth; mostly an [Alpha] in the past.
Magearna beside didn't pay attention to the battle outside.
Staying in place, quietly looking at the blue light blooming in Will's hand.
"Your body has no problems."
Will retracted his hand.
A touch of doubt flashed in his gaze.
The doubtful place is, why hasn't this flying fortress fallen yet?
Lost Magearna's Soul-Heart providing energy.
Shouldn't this spaceship fall?
It's been two or three minutes since then.
Besides trembling at first, there's been no movement at all afterwards.
Suddenly.
"Diri duru."
Magearna reached out her hands hugging Will.
"Uh."
Will's face was a bit subtle.
Became a dad again.
And.
Regarding Magearna suddenly calling him dad.
Will actually didn't feel surprised.
He was the first person Magearna saw after rebooting; generally Pokémon just born will regard the first creature they see as parents, taking time in growth to slowly understand why they look different from "parents".
Zubat and Sprigatito back then were exactly this reason.
So Magearna regarding him as a father, in Will's heart was actually somewhat taken for granted.
"Magearna, can you help me?"
"Diri duru."
Magearna nodded without hesitation; her two pink eyes flashed.
An Aura of "joy" arose on her body.
Seeming to feel glad she could help her father.
"See that red one and that one with four arms outside?"
Will reached out.
Pointing to Volcanion and Mega Metagross respectively.
"Diri duru."
Magearna nodded, then looked at Will.
"Right, help that red Pokémon, defeat that one with four arms."
Will's voice fell.
Magearna [Received Command] finished, walking out of the cockpit with him.
Then raised one arm.
The arm split open into a petal shape.
Pink Fairy-type energy gathered in the "petals".
Boom!!
The pink beam shot out instantly.
The whistling sound echoing in his ear gave Will symptoms of tinnitus.
The speed of this move even exceeded his psychological estimate.
Magearna's exclusive move [Fleur Cannon], whether it's lethality or release speed is stronger than he imagined.
Looking up.
The Mega Metagross flying in the air pursuing Volcanion had already been hit by the pink light pillar.
Just because of having a 2x resistance.
So it seemed not to cause much damage.
