"It's still very different from other regions. Come to think of it, Garrell's champion, like Sirona-chan, has been undefeated in official competitions for a long time. “

"I'm pretty sure it's Mr. Dande."

"yes, it seems to be strong."

Shirona asks a question to Isana, who says it's someone else's problem, but it's actually someone else's problem.

"I've heard from Kaim that Miss Isana's martial arts skills are pretty good. Why don't you stop being a trainer? ”

According to Keim, he has considerable talent. First of all, it took less than three months to conquer the gym badge, which is already quite fast. It took Sirona more than half a year to conquer it in half the time.

Despite his words, he has resigned from his position as a trainer and has not participated in many battles. Trainers aren't the only jobs involving Pokémon, but Shirona is curious about why.

“？ Ah, not a big deal either. “

Isanna drank the contents of her glass and said nothing.

"I don't want to say that myself, but I think I'm very talented in combat, and it would take a year or two for most people to get the Gym badge, and it took me three months. But even though I'm fighting, I can't be hotter than myself. ”

"I can't be hot"

"I don't hate it, but I haven't liked it to the point where I want to dedicate my life to it. It's not that I don't like Pokémon getting hurt, it's that I just don't want to. I crossed the championship and gave up. ”

As the so-called road to the championship is easy, but the road to the championship also has its hardships. Itsana may not seem like a big deal, but he must be a very good trainer.

"I feel like I can't continue to do things I don't like."

"Yes. You won't fall in love with me. On the contrary, sometimes you fall in love with someone who is not talented. ”

Sirona thinks that Kem and Isana are diametrically opposed when it comes to trainers. Isana is talented, but not interested, so she doesn't aim to reach the top. I can't aim at Kem because he doesn't have talent. The end result is the same, but the process is very different.

"Talent.

Isana smiled self-deprecatingly and poured the water into the glass.

"This kid is too servile, isn't he?"

"That's right. You may say that you underestimate yourself, or rather, you underestimate your abilities. ”

This is exactly the weakness that was exposed in the battle with Alice. Kem has a weakness inside himself and does not believe in himself, but tries to believe in what others have accumulated. I was able to overcome it, but it will take time to overcome it completely.

"It's probably my fault."

“？”

"I used to be a very nasty person. I can't understand the feelings of a person who can't do anything because they can do anything. Now that I think about it, he really is a very nasty person. ”

Although he was smiling, there was a glint of regret in his eyes.

"I don't think I said too much to my friends, but I think I said some very harsh things to Kem. I don't want him to suffer and put in the effort because he's a lovely little brother. I don't want to see it because it's painful and I don't understand the meaning. ”

The figure of young Kem resurfaced in Isana's mind.

Kem has less and less time to play with his friends, he uses Pokémon to learn and train his body, and it is somewhat painful to see Kem's appearance. No matter how hard she tried, she scored lower than her sister Isanna and was always compared to her. Originally, I was a child who didn't laugh much, but because of this, I stopped laughing. At some point, the only person who can smile is Pokémon.

Isana couldn't see Cam like that. I want you to find what you can do and what you want to do, and not go your own way. With that in mind, I have a word for Kem.

"No matter how hard you try, you know you don't have talent, right? Do you want to do something else? “

No matter what Isana thought in her heart, what she said was true. Young Cam couldn't take these words. As a result, he lost faith in everything and became shy. Maybe it's because he's a twisted person that he spares no effort, but even then, he loses faith in what he's doing and underestimates him.

"That's part of the reason why I'm probably hated. That's why I try not to get involved. ”

I have all sorts of ideas for Isanna, who is smiling awkwardly. Everyone is generally immature in childhood. So you may make a big mistake and the relationship will break down because of it.

But not now. Both Kem and Isana are now adults. Shirona thought she would understand if I told her. So I decided to tell Isana about it.

"Isanasan. I've known him for three years. From the time we met, Kem was indeed a servile, immature, and unconfident young man. But now he's not perfect, but he's got over that. He's no longer the young Cam he used to be. Kem does say a lot about you. But he never said 'I hate you'. Please take a look at it, and I'm sure you'll understand. ”

I know because she has a younger sister. Brothers are the closest strangers. Because of the proximity, there is a lot to talk about. It's impossible for us to know everything about each other, but even so, I can assure you that we will convey so much information.

"Hehe, I was preached by my sister-in-law."

“？！“

"Oh, I see. You're not engaged yet. ”

I turned my face away from Ishana, who grinned and bared her teeth. It's to hide his flushed face, but it doesn't make much sense, because the ears are red after all.

"Sirona-chan"

“… Yes"

"Thank you. I'll talk to Kem later. ”

"Please do so. I'm sure it will be communicated. ”

"I'm glad I'm a good boy"

Isana tried to pour the wine out of the bottle, but Yukan, who was beside her, entered the house with the bottle.

"Ahh

Without looking back at Isana's voice, Jukan put the bottle back in its place.

"Maybe I shouldn't have let him travel with Kem. He looks a lot like Kem, doesn't he? ”

"Whew, by the way, the dull stop is very similar to Kem."

In the case of Kem, this often happens when she nags. He didn't accept it silently like the previous Zhu Kane, but even so, his semi-forced acceptance was very similar to Kem's.

"Ah, yes. Speaking of traveling, you said it at dinner, but the two of you are going to a place for some reason. “

"Yes. It's a very special place. ”
