Journey Towards Greatness Chapter 17
Advertisement
Julian is on the ship's rooftop looking at the approaching Vermillion city waiting for his next gym battle.
Julian 'The main storyline has already started both Ash and Gary have started their journey and I have to get ready for the future and it's only possible as I also become stronger with my partners'
Alice came to the rooftop and sees Julian and stands next to him.
Alice "Beautiful city, don't you think Julian?"
Julian "Yes indeed"
Alice "So this is where we say goodbye huh?"
Julian just stands there without a reply
Alice "So goodbye then Julian hope we meet again"
Julian smile at her and says "Goodbye"
Even though they spend weeks together they got closer but didn't develop any feelings towards each other their relationship was full of lust and nothing else.
The ship arrives at the seaport as Julian gets down the ship with his bike as he heads towards the Pokemon center, after reaching pokemon center Julian hands over his pokemons to Nurse Joy as he rents a room there and goes inside
Julian 'the system has already updated, let's see what new thing did it get, System display your new features'
As Julian commanded he heard a sound in his head and a screen popped in front of him which only he could see.
____________________
System updated
New features
* store an infinite amount of data
* process and modify the existing data and run virtual simulations

_____________________
Julian 'great not many features added but I don't need any more than this the options that are present now are perfect, let's see modification, can I modify the project Mewteo lets see'

Julian 'System, copy all the data in this drive and start to modify the project Mewtwo which has no side effects and won't contain harmful DNA modifying method' Julian takes out the drive containing the information about team rocket and project Mewtwo.
System 'Coping all data, successfully copied, modification of project Mewtwo starting'
System 'Informing host that modification of the project Mewtwo is complex, the time is taken to modify is 370 days, would host like to continue the modification process?'
Julian 'well it doesn't hurt anyone, continue the process'
System 'Affirmative'
Julian 'Well that problem is solved and now I just have to wait till it finishes and see what the future brings to me, if I want to catch a Mew I will need a dark or ghost type pokemon, I hope I can find one here, let's not think about it'
Julian sits down on the carpet and starts to meditate to calm his mind from all the foreign thoughts and so half a day quickly pass without him even realizing when he wakes up from the trance he finds himself grown stronger and sharper.
Julian 'System what happened to me'
System 'Host has reached the next stage and has broken the shackles of the mortal body, Host can now sense the spiritual energy around him increasing host's stats.
Julian 'My stats, I haven't checked it until now, System display my stats'

Julian 'Enough of this let's go and take my pokemons back'
Julian goes to Nurse Joy and gets his Pokemons as he heads towards the forest nearby to train his pokemons.
As Julian encounters many pokemons in the forest he mainly uses Pidgey as he wants Pidgey to evolve soon as he may help Julian to catch a ghost type pokemon, now Julian is facing a Raticate
Julian "Pidgey use gust"
Raticate is blown away but again gets up and climbs a tree and jumps on to Pidgey using hyper fang
Julian "Pidgey dodge then use quick attack"
Pidgey simply glides sideway as Raticate misses as soon as this happens Pidgey flies up at full speed and dives down and hit it with a quick attack while it was still in the air sending it crashing down and it faints, Pidgey flies an lands on Julian's solder.
Julian "You did very well" as soon as he says this and pats Pidgey's head he starts to glow and becomes bigger and turns into a Pidgeotto
Julian 'good thing that he evolved, system show stats'

Julian 'Bond? system what does bond mean?'
System 'It is the bond and trust between trainer and pokemon, 100% is the limit'
Julian 'I see and look at his stats he has become very powerful and there is still room to grow'
Julian "Look at you, you have grown so powerful"
Pidgeotto "peeeee" Pedgeotto excitedly chirps and fly around happily
Julian 'I think its time to head back'
Julian "Pidgeotto come let's go back or we will be late"
He calls back Pidgeotto and heads back to the city, he visits some shops to restock his good and continue towards the pokemon center, when he reaches there he sees a twelve-year-old kid taking his unconscious Bulbasaur which was pretty badly hurt to the pokemon center, seeing a pokemon hurt so badly he didn't like it so he followed the boy, after the boy gave his Bulbasaur to nurse Joy Julian went to Nurse Joy
Julian "Nurse Joy why is that Bulbasaur hurt so badly"
Nurse Joy hearing his question figured out that he is not the residence of the vermillion city
Joy "You must be new here, the gym leader of the Vermillion city gym is very brutal when he is battling the challengers, he is either defeated or because of him a pokemon is admitted to the pokemon center"
Hearing Nurse Joy's answer Julian could do nothing but shake his head as he knew that pokemon battle can be like this but he felt bad for the Kid and he couldn't do anything
Julian 'This Lt. Surge really like to play rough huh? well, I would also like if he plays rough with me it will be fun' Julian smiles thinking about this, If anybody looked at this smile right now they will shit their pants on the spot as it looked like the smile of the devil itself.

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!
