Alex—sitting on the floor of his personal room—was in a meditative stance while his Pokémon were training.

The main focus of this was to better control his Psychic-energy in his body through this practice.

Although Alex has the reserves of a Tier 3 Psychic, he still has to learn how to use his energy effectively in order to learn really important skills.

Only when he has good enough control of his energy is it worth training his skills, according to Alex.

*buzzz*

Alex had kept his TRH device on silent mode since the sound it makes when it vibrates due to the new notification was enough to grab his attention.

When he checked what it was, he found a message from Maria, "Hey, playboy~ Are you watching TV?"

Alex was momentarily speechless. He called her and asked the first thing that had stuck in his mind, "Really? Playboy? You still plan to keep on calling me that?"

"Why not? Even though a second-class, you are a playboy nonetheless. And I also think that it's a good nickname. Much better than honey or sweetheart."

"Wow! I'm not only a playboy but also a bad playboy? Did I forget something important today? Or else why are you hitting me with an insult combo?"

"Not bad, right?"

Playboy is the name Maria started using as a romantic nickname after they got together and started chatting with each other on a daily basis.

Alex had heard/read this name for 2 weeks constantly and found it very funny.

He thinks that he generally has a bad relationship with the female gender if you exclude Maria.

Nina Braum and Misty both have a poor relationship with Alex.

Alex is often indifferent to Lisa, though Lisa is a special case.

He felt that this nickname had nothing to do with reality and that he was a proud and serious man. Well, most of the time.

"You know, what? I was just thinking about a good name suitable for you. What do you think of the name, 'small'." Alex counterattacked.

Maria thought for a moment before she understood what he meant by that.

Although Alex is taller than she is, she is already quite tall for a woman's standard. So he definitely didn't mean her height by this name.

Maria didn't say anything for a moment, but anger was bubbling inside her.

After a few seconds, she said in a dry voice, "Ha-ha. You're making fun of my small breasts, how original. But two people can play this game."

"I'll call you small from now on too, in public to top it off. Let's see who gets more embarrassed."

Alex, who was above average, understood what people would think if Maria called him that.

Alex couldn't control his anger this time, "You bitch! That's a lie, and you know it."

Maria's angry voice could also be heard through the TRH device as she said, "And that I have small breasts isn't a lie, you bastard?"

"I just wanted to make a joke."

"Me too."

...

Alex and Maria didn't say anything to each other for a moment.

After a few seconds, Maria said, "I hope you know, I would never try to humiliate you like that in public."

Alex answered with an apologetic tone, "My joke was really a bit too much this time. I hope this joke didn't hurt your feelings."

She said softly, "Don't worry... Love you, playboy."

The happy smile had found its way back on Alex's face as he said with an invigorated tone, "I love you too, Maria."

After this romantic moment, Alex suddenly said, "And I checked, you really have above-average breasts for your age."

Maria started to slightly smile as she said seductive, "Hehe~ What a coincidence. I also checked the size of your piece. Not bad~."

This seductive tone had done its charm as Alex's libido had increased. "..When are you coming back?"

"I've only been on the island for 2 weeks, and I want to stay on it for at least 1 month." Alex was disappointed hearing this.

"...But I can fly back for a day tomorrow." This sentence alone made Alex's emotions go 180.

Alex grinned, "Sounds good."

Although both had a small argument today, neither was really angry with the other and tried to be considerate against each other.

Both know that neither gets really hurt by insults. So both sometimes use insults like bitch or bastard.

It was a weird relationship but a very solid one.

"Ahh, I almost forgot why I called you. Did you turn on the TV?"

Alex was confused about why Maria wanted to talk about it now. "No, why? Something interesting happened?"

This topic doesn't come up in their usual conversation. Alex knows that Maria doesn't watch TV very often, so he believed something important must have happened.

Maria said, "In 2 minutes, there will be an interview with a future Gym Leader who has been approved by the Alliance. I don't think I have to tell you who it is."

"Misty?"

Maria said nothing for a moment and said indifferently, "How is your relationship with her?"

Alex said with laughter, "Haha! Do you really think I would develop feelings for a child?"

"Hasn't she turned 14 this year? It's only 2 years away to be considered an adult."

Although every trainer is an adult, it is only in the eyes of law.

In this world, 16 is the age when one is treated as an adult and also for non-trainers to be legally regarded as an adult.

Alex said with a cheeky smile, "You're so cute when you're jealous."

"Go suck your ****."

Alex wanted to say, "I think that's your job," but refrained from doing so since he didn't want to ruin his chance for tomorrow for a joke, no matter how good a joke he thinks it was. Though he had to struggle a lot with himself to not say it.

He said with a smile, "Misty and I have a very bad relationship. I don't have her contact details, and I have no interest in getting them."

Maria, who was satisfied with this answer, said with a slightly happy tone, even if she tried to suppress it, "Good. But you should still watch this interview to understand the general situation of Kanto."

Without waiting for Alex to answer, she said, "Okay, the interview is about to start, so I'll hang up. See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."
