Chapter 307 - Gengar's Adventure In The Sub-World (4)
The Dusclops soon brought the Gengar and Mismagius towards a weird-looking forest area, few trees in this forest are lit up in a pattern that it makes a way deeper into the forest, lighting up the path.
Dusclops seems a little annoyed with Gengar as he looks at the grin on his face, for some reason he felt something was wrong and he has seen this Gengar before.
Dusclops [You, have we seen each other before?]
The Dusclops asked as he looked at Gengar.
Gengar [Me, Gegege, I don't know you, you might have met some other Gengar]
Gengar chuckled and said to Dusclops, Dusclops really felt something was off but he couldn't tell what.
Gengar chuckles once again, which causes the Dusclops to get more tensed up.
Dusclops [Shut up and follow me]
Gengar [Gegegege]
While this happens Mismagius just keeps staring at Gengar, she is really worried but when she looks at Gengar, she sees he is not scared at all and his reaction says that he is enjoying this.
Mismagius 'What is up with this guy'
She thinks and quietly follows Dusclops, they soon arrived outside a very creepy mansion, Gengar looks around and sees the whole mansion is filled with powerful Ghost Energy.
Gengar [Gege, Where are we?]
Gengar asked.
Dusclops [Shut up and just follow]
Dusclops said and dragged the both of them inside the mansion, as Gengar and Mismagius entered the mansion he saw the statues of few ghost pokemons on it, there is a Gengar, Dusknoir, Mismagius, Sableye, Spiritomb, Froslass, Golurk, and in the middle of these statues is the statue of a Marshadow.
Behind all these pokemon is another statue and this is of a human, the statue doesn't have a face but from the outfit the man is wearing, it seems his hood would always cover his face making it not visible.
Gengar looked at the nine statues of the pokemon and his eyes sparkled, he had not seen few of the species of pokemon from these statues, he has seen a Mismagius and Dusknoir but never has he seen a Sableye, Spiritomb, Froslass, Golurk, and the tiny one Marshadow.
Gengar [What are those species of pokemon?]
Gengar asked.
Mismagius [I know, apart from the three, Gengar, Mismagius and Dusknoir, the rest of them are Sableye, Spiritomb, Froslass, Golurk, and the mythical ghost pokemon Marshadow]
Mismagius told Gengar, she couldn't believe how ignorant Gengar is, he didn't even know about the pokemons of his own typing.
Gengar [Gegege, Ignore me, let move ahead]
Dusclops didn't even know that his words were of no value in the group, as Gengar said so they moved forward.
Finally, they arrived in a huge room, Gengar looked down and saw weird writing and pattern on the floor and the walls of the Gengar is intrigued by them as he could tell that they are the reason behind the tree that could suck the lifespan of the pokemons that were near the area.
Dusclops [Be on your knees as the lord will come and judge you]
Gengar [Lord? who is this lord?]
Dusclops [You don't have the right to ask, just wait]
He said and floated away, Gengar started to look around and tried to figure out how the life span of these pokemons was being taken away.
While he was looking around, Mismagius seemed quite worried, she is now trapped with Gengar for no reason, she really couldn't believe how bad her luck is.
Gengar didn't get enough time to look around because the Dusclops came back but this time he is with a Dusknoir.
Dusknoir [Are they the ones responsible for burning down the sacred tree?]
The Dusknoir asked and looked at Gengar who is grinning at him, for a second Dusknoir suddenly had a flashback about meeting a Gengar that had chased him for a whole day, scaring him shitlessly.
Dusknoir never forgot how terrifying it was when he was chased by that Gengar.
Dusknoir 'I still can forget that whenever I see a Gengar I get scared from that experience'
Dusknoir thought and looked at Gengar once again, for some reason this Gengar made him shiver more than the others he has encountered in the past after that horrifying experience he had from that day.
Dusknoir [You two, his majesty has asked for you, follow me]
The Dusknoir said and brought them to the main room and in this room there and Gengar saw something special, there is a huge throne in the middle of this room and on that throne sits a little pokemon, still a baby, in fact, a Marshadow.
On the Marshadow's right is an old Froslass, she looks old and about to die after a few years due to old age, there is also an Aegislash on the left of the baby Marshadow.
Gengar's grin goes wider as he found the culprit behind the one who is stealing the life span, its the Froslass, she might look old in other's eyes but not in Gengar's he could easily see the pulsing validity inside her, she is the one who is taking in all the life span that the tree is sapping from the local ghost pokemons.
The little Marshadow looked at Gengar with wide eyes, even though it is young it can tell if a ghost pokemon is special or not, it is an advantage of being a mythical pokemon.
Marshadow 'What pure ghost energy, even granny Froslass doesn't have this pure energy'
Marshadow thought.
This Marshadow was just born weeks ago so it doesn't know much, the person who was there when it came to the world is the Froslass.
Pokemons know never to trust anyone except their parents, because they have a similar aura to them, Froslass is completely different from it, so it never trusted the Froslass to the fullest but it is the only one it can rely on.
When the Marshadow was born it was crowned the king that instant.
It has no clue what is happening as everything is taken care of by the Froslass, so the Marshadow could only depend on the Froslass for now, and it was the only ghost pokemon it saw that had a very concentrated powerful ghost energy.
Now it has seen Gengar and saw how pure his Ghost energy is, compared to Froslass it was like comparing mud to pure water.
