POKEMON: PICK UP THE MYSTICAL POKEMON DIANCIE AT THE BEGINNING

Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Flowing Water Dojo



After completing his goals for the day, Victor made his way to his second destination—Streaming Water Dojo.

Streaming Water Dojo was the ancestral dojo of his friend Tessa. It specializes in boxing techniques that flow continuously like water, with each blow stronger than the last.

Victor's purpose for visiting was to learn martial arts from a master, but not just any martial arts—he sought to learn the power of the waveguide.

A few days ago, Victor had confided in his parents and two best friends about his sudden awakening to the power of waveguide. While his parents were excited, Tessa offered help by arranging an introduction to Master Boster, a aura master from the crimson Alliance who would be visiting Streaming Water Dojo for an exchange.

Since the system had enabled Victor to awaken his waveguide power, his abilities had grown continuously. In the two weeks since his awakening, his waveguide power had more than doubled from when it first manifested.

Although Victor had learned techniques like waveguide exploration and telepathy on his own, he still lacked systematic knowledge. His parents promised to look for Master Boster to provide a secret manual for Victor, and thanks to Tessa's efforts, Victor learned that Master Boster would be visiting the dojo today.

Victor's goal was simple: to obtain an introductory manual from the aura family, which had a long-standing legacy in waveguide mastery.

Upon arriving at Streaming Water Dojo, Victor quickly called Tessa.

Soon, Tessa, dressed in training clothes, brought Victor into the dojo.

Inside, an elderly man with gray hair but a vibrant aura was sparring with a muscular man in the dojo's arena. The elderly man's punches flowed in a continuous, progressive rhythm, forcing the larger man to either defend or dodge.

What was even more surprising was that the muscular man had his eyes closed.

Victor thought that this must be Master Boster, using the waveguide to sense his surroundings. Through the waveguide, Victor could "see" the waveguide energy radiating three meters around the muscular man's body.

Despite using the waveguide for passive defense, the elderly man skillfully lured the muscular man into a trap, forcing him into defeat.

"I lost, I lost. As expected, Master Hulk, you're still as strong as ever. Even with the help of aura, I'm no match for you," the muscular man admitted with a hearty smile, sitting on the floor.

"Ha! In a few years, I won't even be able to walk. The world will belong to the younger generation," Master Hulk chuckled as he shrugged off his victory.

The two men bantered for a while before Master Hulk invited the muscular man into the nearby reception room.

As they entered, Tessa led Victor inside.

Master Hulk, sitting in a chair with the muscular man, smiled brightly when he saw them.

"Victor, come here!" he called.

Victor and Tessa walked over, and Master Hulk introduced them to the burly man sitting beside him.

"Boster, this is my granddaughter Tessa, and this is her friend Victor."

"Today, I have another favor to ask of you. Victor has recently awakened the power of waveguide and would like to learn from you."

"Tessa, Victor, this is the leader of our league, Boster ."

"Hello," Boster greeted them, nodding. Victor and Tessa bowed in respect.

Boster glanced at Victor, his interest piqued. "Since Elder Hulk has introduced you, I won't refuse."

"Let's get to the point. What do you want to learn from me?" Boster asked directly.

Victor, sensing the straight forwardness in Boster's tone, did not hesitate. "I want to learn how to use the waveguide."

"I see. You want to learn how to control and use the waveguide, correct?" Boster asked, confirming.

"Yes," Victor affirmed.

Boster leaned forward, a serious expression on his face. "Then let me explain the history of waveguides first."

"Waveguides are one manifestation of psychic energy. Both humans and Pokémon can possess waveguides. For example, the Lucario family are known experts in using waveguides."

"Most humans do not have the same innate power as Pokémon. My own waveguide power, for instance, can only extend about two meters around me at full strength. I cannot turn it into a wave missile to attack like Pokémon can."

"The founder of our waveguide family could even use aura sphere like Pokémon and was physically strong enough to battle monsters hand-to-hand."

"It's unfortunate that I haven't seen anyone capable of cultivating waveguide to such a powerful level in a long time."

"I am the most talented individual in my family's waveguide tradition. Currently, I can cover an area of two meters around my body with my waveguide, and I can control any movement within that space."

"Now that we've gone over the history, Victor, would you mind showing me your waveguide?" Boster asked, his curiosity growing. He wanted to gauge the power of this self-awakened waveguide user.

The waveguide clan's members usually trained from a young age, so Victor's ability to awaken it on his own was extraordinary. Boster, while excited, maintained a calm demeanor, knowing the rarity of such an event.
