Pokemon: A Mystical Journey - Chapter 304
They looked at it curiously thinking what they hold.
Their curiosity was answered when Alex explained it to them, ” These are the evidence along with the recording of the scene of action.
There was a hidden camera installed in the corridor for the sake of security which recorded all the things which happened there. ”
Hearing it is evidence for crime, Elsa asked worrying for Alex thinking he is breaking some rules and regulations by showing it to them. ” Is it alright for you to show it to us?”
Captain Bark knows these things cannot be revealed to any relevant people or people who have no relation to anything about that matter or incident yet a sensible trainer like Alex is showing them meant there is a deeper meaning behind all this and he decided to listen to everything quietly without interrupting them.
The reason why he is showing these things to the unrelated people is explained by his next sentence.
Alex explained it to them, “I have sent the original copy to the league earlier. After going through the recording as well as the photo evidence and their personal confirmation by a person they can trust, they have given me a free hand on how I deal with them.
But, they also mentioned I have to show it to you after I punished them personally. They mentioned that I should let Cynthia, Elsa, Lucian, and Julius see it without fail. ”
” If they have asked you to show it to us, then what’s the problem?” Lucian asked confused about why he gave them an option when he is ordered to show it to us.
Alex has an empty smile on his face and he said, ” If I have punished them then you would have asked me why I acted so ruthlessly.
To explain myself, I would show it to you. At that time, you will not understand my actions. In fact, I am sure most of you will be angry at me for not letting you vent your anger on them after knowing about their past actions.
I am showing it to you earlier, so you can join me and assist me in punishing them as severely as possible for their actions.”
He waits for them to understand what he said to them.
” Wait, you are doing it now because you hope to ask our views on how to punish them?” Cynthia asked.
” yes ” he nods upon hearing her.
Bill knows just how ruthless his friend can be if such a situation arises. But, he has doubt about why he said that “So, what do you wish to do? Do you wish to increase their punishment or lessen it, fearing you will be too cruel.”
Alex gave him a long look and finally said, ” I do have a good way to remind them of their folly and set an example for others. Yet I think I am still being lenient to them. I wish to punish them appropriately and so I thought all of you can give me a decent opinion.”
Cynthia asked him directly, ” So what type of punishment is adequate for them in your mind?”
Alex replied her directly without many thoughts, “Firstly I wish to give them some cuts on their body so they can bleed. They will bleed until they die completely due to blood loss.
But then I thought of hanging them to a pole in the deck under the scratching sun and let them die slowly.
They will be sprinkled with seawater to stop them from becoming unconscious in pain. The other role of this is that their pain will be amplified and they will be in severe pain throughout the course of time until they finally die. ” After gearing this, the group shudders and felt like they have seen Alex for the first time.
To kill someone like that would be too ruthless especially in front of people who just survived a near life-death situation.
” Isn’t it a bit too much?” Julius asked calmly but the shaking hand as well as fear in his years spoke out loud just how afraid he really is from hearing all that.
Alex shrugged and said, ” I originally thought of pulling their nails out with pliers, twisting their limbs in all directions as well as peeling their skin too.
And just before they die throwing them in a Cavanha infested water who will eat them up piece by piece.
But I remembered there will be kinds too and the yells from this will give kids nightmare.
His colourful words made them stunned. He has already planned so many ways to execute them but before that he added a little torture session too.
” Alex, isn’t it a bit too much?” Lucian asked who had the least contact with Alex other than Julius and Bark.
” Too much? I think I am letting them off pretty easily. If they don’t suffer a bit for their actions, there will be no use to punish them.
I wanted to drag their execution until they suffered enough, but they all are from well connected family. Their information can easily be transmitted. They can also hire some powerful mercenary to save them.
They are members who often fight for power with the league and can cause trouble if they are alive before the reinforcement comes.
So, I am telling you all this so you are mentally prepared. You know me well enough that I won’t push for these things unless they deserve it. ”
They know Alex isn’t someone who uses his authority brazenly or some who is drunk in his powers. He is someone who is pretty reclusive and doesn’t want to get involved in these sorts of power play.
” And who are these people who angered you so much that you wish to torture them before they die?” Cynthia asked him.
” There are a total of ten prime culprits with fifty other people and thirty crew members who supported them in their endeavour in the different Muster station.
They were crushed to their death. They were punished but not enough. I want these people to suffer. ”
” So you want to prolong their death? You wish to make them suffer.” Elsa summed up.
Alex then look at them with guilt and pity, ” You will know why I act like this after you watch this videocassette. I hope you all can remain the same. ”
And the video was played in this soundproof room.
