Elves: Angler's Rainy Day Team

Chapter 774: Where the Dream Begins
It’s the 40th day after returning to the Orange Islands, and it’s sunny.

In the morning, the rain stopped and the sky cleared up...

Yu Hai woke up slowly on the bed in the villa. The sunlight poured in through the window without reservation. The light was blindingly bright and the warmth instantly enveloped him. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and walked to the balcony in his slippers.

When he opened the door, fresh and moist air rushed in, carrying the unique fragrance of grass and trees after the rain. He took a deep breath, feeling refreshed, stretched out his body, and his muscles and bones made a light "crackling" sound.

The noise of getting up woke up Moon Eevee. The little guy ran over from the bed and came to the balcony. He first shook off his fluffy hair, then squatted on the table, stuck out his pink tongue, licked his paws carefully, and began to wash his face.

Seeing this, Yu Hai couldn't help but reach out and gently touch the Moon Eevee's head. The Moon Eevee raised its head and rubbed his palm, then continued to focus on his cleaning work, washing his face and then licking his fur.

When he woke up this morning, he would say goodbye to Luoyan and the others, leave Jingan Island and return to Xiagan Island. When the elf recovered from the injury in the competition, he would set off and embark on the elf's promotion journey.

As for where to go first?

He hasn't thought it through yet. It's unknown when the elves will break through to the level of Heavenly King. Even if he doesn't run around, he can just stay at home.

But such a life is too boring. After traveling to the elf world for so long, he still hasn't seen this world properly. He went out twice before, once for a competition and once to treat Zapdos. This time he wanted to go out for fun just for himself.

The only important things right now are the battle for the Four Heavenly Kings which will be held at an unknown time, and the hot spring resort which is under construction.

He had no idea when the battle for the Four Heavenly Kings would start, so just waiting would be useless. He couldn't just do nothing but help the elves become Heavenly Kings!
He didn't need to worry about the construction of the hot spring center, and he really couldn't worry about it, as everything was the responsibility of the housekeeper of Xia Gan Dojo.

He knew nothing about building, decorating or even operating a hot spring spa, so he had to hire a professional manager to take care of it after it was built.

But there is no need to worry about this. There are many hot springs in Honglian Island, and there must be talents in this field there. If you can't find a suitable store manager, just ask Xia Bo to recommend a few.

Is there any question about choosing the first stop of your journey?

Since he didn't know where to go first, he could go to where his dream began. And the place where his dream began was exactly...

As he thought about it, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he knew where to go first...

"Boss, do you want to have breakfast?" Luo Yan walked down the stairs and saw Yu Hai standing by the window on the second floor.

At this moment, Yu Hai was staring into the distance motionlessly, his gaze seemed to penetrate everything in front of him.

"No, you guys eat first." Yu Hai didn't turn around, just raised his hand and waved.

His eyes were still fixed on the endless blue sea in front of him, where there was an uninhabited primitive island.

In his heart, that uninhabited island was where his dream began, not the real New Town.

He continued to be in a daze on the balcony for a while, until everyone got up and went downstairs. Then he slowly walked down the stairs carrying a black backpack. The Moon Eevee on his shoulder was yawning lazily, and its pink little tongue would occasionally come out to lick its paw pads.

"Good morning, Brother Hai!" Xiao Shun was doing warm-up exercises in a corner of the front yard of the villa. When he saw Yu Hai appear, he immediately stopped what he was doing, put on a smile on his face, and greeted him enthusiastically.

"Train the elves well, I'm leaving." Yu Hai nodded to Xiao Shun with a smile, then looked around at everyone in the villa.

Some people were warming up vigorously, some were running along the path in the front yard of the villa, and some were training with their elves, with shouts and footsteps intertwined.

After spending last night together, Yu Hai felt a little reluctant to leave, but he knew he had to say goodbye to everyone and return to the new home he had just purchased, where a group of friends were waiting for him.

"Boss!" Luo Yan still had half a piece of bread in his mouth. When he heard Yu Hai say that he was leaving, he didn't even have time to swallow it. He was stunned for a moment. The scene of the team building last night was still clearly echoing in his mind, as if it happened just now.

"Brother Hai..." Xiaoying still had the mask on her face, but even so, she couldn't hide the reluctance in her eyes.

Like Xiaofeng, he planned to continue living in the villa for a while, at least to figure out the confusing knowledge from last night before leaving.

"Brother Hai!" Keita and Meiqi walked up quickly. They opened their mouths, as if they had a thousand words to say, but when they looked around, there were too many people at the scene, so they swallowed their words back, their eyes full of confusion.

"Work hard, and I hope you'll be able to stand on your own when we meet next time." Ukai smiled and stretched out his hand, gently patting Keita's slightly thin shoulder, his eyes full of encouragement.

This simple action made Keita's eyes red, tears welled up in his eyes and soon burst out.

"And you, if you have any problems, just find Luo Yan. We can always solve it by discussing it together." Yu Hai looked at Meiqi, still with a gentle smile on his face.

Maggie is still young, after all, she is just a little girl, but she has come this far carrying a deep blood feud. It must have been very difficult. It is not easy for her to persist until now.

It's really hard for a little girl. Maybe it would be easier if she changed it to a mortgage. At worst, she can just give up...

"Let's talk about it later." Yu Hai smiled and interrupted Mei Qi's hesitation. He slowly glanced at the remaining people, Xiaoying, Xiaoming, Xiaofeng, Xiaoshun, Ah Man, Shingo...

Everyone has experienced a lot with him. At this moment, there is no need for words. When their eyes meet, thousands of words are expressed without words.

"Everyone, keep up the good work. I look forward to seeing you next time!" Yu Hai raised a carefree smile on his face, waved his hand while laughing, then turned around resolutely, took steady steps, and slowly left the villa.

“Boss…” Luo Yan stood there, his lips trembling slightly as he murmured softly. His voice was full of reluctance, but Yu Hai was already walking farther and farther away.

"Brother Hai..." Xiaoying followed Luoyan. Although he was wearing a mask, his slightly trembling body revealed his complicated emotions at the moment.

Seeing Yu Hai turning around and leaving, everyone in the villa hurriedly chased after him.

Yu Hai seemed to sense something, turned around and shouted with a smile: "Everyone, stop seeing me off, let's all go back!"

He took out the Poké Ball from his waist and gently pressed the button. A white light flashed and the silly body of Slowking appeared before his eyes.

He walked forward, raised his hand and placed it firmly on King Dai's broad shoulders, and whispered to King Dai: "King Dai, let's go!"

"Ah-dong!" King Daidai nodded heavily, and his eyes instantly lit up with a mysterious blue light.

In an instant, the air around them seemed to tremble, and in the blink of an eye, King Dai Dai and Yu Hai disappeared without a trace, leaving only an empty ground.

"Brother Hai, let's go..."

I don't know who it was, but he sighed softly, turned around silently, and walked back with heavy steps.

Everyone looked towards the empty space where Yu Hai disappeared, with loss, regret and sorrow in their eyes, and then they gradually dispersed. Only one or two people who were reluctant to leave stood there for a long time, staring at the empty space with dull eyes, as if they were still looking forward to seeing each other again.

It was several minutes later that the training calls and the elves' cries woke them up from their thoughts.

A few people slowly came to their senses, turned around and walked into the villa, quickly integrating into everyone's enthusiastic training, and sweat soon soaked everyone's clothes.

They have not forgotten the agreement with the boss. Everyone of them is holding back their energy, hoping that the next time they meet, they will be able to stand in front of the leader as a new and stronger self.

……

At the same time, Ukai asked Slow King to perform teleportation.

In an instant, the scene before their eyes distorted and changed, and when everything returned to normal, they were already at the seaside.

He quickly took out the Poké Ball from his waist, pressed the button, and white lights flashed one after another, and his Pokémons appeared one after another.

"Everyone, it's time for breakfast!" Yu Hai shouted. The elves happily gathered together and enjoyed the delicious food.

After the meal, Ukai thought for a moment and only kept Blastoise, Megalodon and Umbreon.

Then, he held Moon Eevee in his arms, jumped onto Blastoise's broad back, and shouted to Blastoise, "Bluse, let's go back to Xiagan Island!"

"Kamei, kamei," the Blastoise let out a loud roar, flapped its limbs, and slowly swam towards the depths of the sea.

The sea was sparkling, and a megalodon was swimming happily around, splashing white waves. This time it could finally roam the sea, and the shark jumped out excitedly and disappeared in an instant.

Ukai sat cross-legged on the back of Blastoise, estimating the time. If the voyage went smoothly, they would be able to reach Xiagan Island this afternoon. He looked into the distance and gently stroked the soft fur of Umbreon. Umbreon squinted its eyes comfortably and made a soft snoring sound in its throat.

His hand unconsciously reached for his backpack, and just as he was about to take out his old friend, the thrilling experience of yesterday suddenly emerged in his mind. He frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally gave up the idea of ​​fishing.

On land, facing the siege of a large group of Megalodon and Gyarados, he naturally would not be afraid because of his powerful Pokémon.

But now he is in the vast ocean, with no footholds except the sea water. If he is besieged, he will be in big trouble and might be beaten badly.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he sighed helplessly and thought to himself: "Forget it, I'd better go back honestly."

During the rest of the voyage, there was no fishing and everything was indeed safe and sound.

In the afternoon, the speed of the dart turtle gradually slowed down, and the outline of Xiagan Island was looming in the distance. He stood on the back of the dart turtle and shouted excitedly: "We are almost there!"

After arriving at the shore, Yu Hai retrieved the Megalodon that had been playing all the way, and the Blastoise that had been swimming for the whole morning and looked a little tired.

He released the Slow King again and shouted, "Slow King, take us back to the lakeside cabin."

Slow King's eyes flashed blue, and he used instant teleportation again.

The scene in front of him was distorted and changing, and when Yu Hai came to his senses, he was standing steadily on the grass of the wooden house by the lake.

At this time, there was a drizzle in the sky, and they had noticed it when they approached Xiagan Island.

However, now that he had returned home, Yu Hai didn't care about the rain at all. He opened his arms and shouted loudly in the rain: "Everyone, we are back!"

The voice echoed in the rain, as if announcing his return to this familiar land.

"Mee-ee-ee?" Butterfree was resting comfortably in the rocking chair. It keenly caught the familiar cry and instantly raised its antennae.

Its compound eyes, which were originally half-closed, suddenly opened wide, full of surprise and excitement. It flapped its wings and flew up from the rocking chair. Raindrops splashed on its wings as thin as cicada wings, but it didn't care at all and flew straight towards Yu Hai in the heavy rain.

"Yo!" The fast-swimming frog sat cross-legged under the eaves, engaging in his daily meditation.

When it heard Yu Hai's voice, its tightly closed eyes opened instantly, and a gleam of light flashed in its eyes.

Then, it pushed the ground hard, leaving shallow footprints. It ran towards Yu Hai, barking, and splashing water along the way.

"Luca?" Lucario had his eyes closed quietly, feeling the waves around him. He immediately sensed the sudden appearance of Yu Hai. His ears trembled slightly, and he instantly recognized that it was Yu Hai's voice.

It suddenly opened its eyes, filled with uncontrollable excitement, and rushed into the rain without hesitation, running towards Yu Hai.

It had never thought that it would miss a human being so much, even though they had only been separated for two days.

At the same time, the toucan gulls were circling happily in the air, making excited "bei li li" sounds, as if expressing their joy for Yu Hai's return.

"Beep, beep, beep," the Pidgeot stood on the branch. When he heard the sound, he spread his wings and made a loud bird call, equally excited.

The electric monster was so excited that its muscles were tense. It roared and beat its chest with its strong arms, "Bang, bang, bang, roar..."

The roar echoed in the rain, venting the excitement in his heart.

"Woo woo," the Nine-Tailed Fox swung its nine fluffy tails like a burning flame, broke through the rain curtain, ran towards Yu Hai, and made a soft call from its mouth.

Not only that, the giant crab waved its huge claws, making a "clicking" sound, and approached Yu Hai eagerly.

The giant mantis flapped its wings and flew over quickly.

Foretos rolled over and came quickly from a distance.

The agile bug darted quickly through the grass.

Gyarados created a huge splash in the lake, poked its head out of the water, and let out a low roar.

Three gophers quickly emerged from underground.

Lotte Kappa happily jumped and ran towards Ukai in the rain.

The little boar grunted and ran towards Yu Hai with its short legs.

The gemstone of the jewel starfish shimmers red as it rises from the lake.

Kentaro swung his three tails and rushed towards Ukai.

The stinging jellyfish poked its upper body out of the lake and moved its tentacles in the water towards Ukai.

The catfish king also floated up from the bottom of the lake...

"Haha, everyone slow down, slow down!" Before Yu Hai could react, he was instantly pressed down on the wet grass by a group of enthusiastic elves.

Some elves couldn't wait to stick out their tongues and lick his face, "Little pig, don't lick, don't lick..."

He shouted loudly, but his voice was instantly drowned out by the elves' shouts.

By the time everyone calmed down, Yu Hai and the elves were already soaked, with rain running down his hair and cheeks.

He simply sat on the grass, reaching out his hands to touch the enthusiastic elves one by one, with a happy smile on his face, and shouted to the elves: "Everyone, let the rain stop and have a sunny day together!"

“Woo woo woo, roar hoo, wow wow wow…”

Various unique cries intertwined together, and the elves who had mastered the Sunny Day move raised their heads and opened their mouths, spraying dazzling beams of light into the sky.

The elves who could not wait for the sunny day were not to be outdone. They sprayed extremely destructive death rays into the sky with all their strength. Beams of energy crisscrossed the sky.

Boom, boom, boom——

A deafening roar sounded, and the heavy rain clouds that had been accumulating over Xiagan Island for days were finally torn into pieces under the impact of the powerful force of the elves, as if they were torn apart by an invisible giant hand.

The sunlight that was originally obscured by dark clouds pierced through the gloomy sky like a sharp sword.

In the blink of an eye, the rainy day was replaced by a sunny day.

As the sky cleared up and the warm sunshine shone on his body, Yu Hai felt obviously much warmer. He slowly stood up, took out the Poké Ball, and released the vest Pokémons he had brought with him.

As soon as these elves came out, they ran and played happily with other elves on the green grass. Some chased and played with each other, and some rolled on the grass. He turned and walked into the house, opened the wardrobe, and chose a clean and comfortable set of casual clothes to change into.

Then he picked up the old friend that had been with him for a long time and walked to the lake with brisk steps.

The breeze blew gently, ripples appeared on the surface of the lake, and the water shone golden under the sunlight.

"Ah dong." Seeing Yu Hai preparing to hang bait for fishing, King Dai Dai swayed his round body and slowly floated to Yu Hai's side.

It remembered that when it was studying with Grandpa Dunmei, it often saw Grandpa Dunmei's A-Dai, who would always float quietly beside Grandpa Dunmei and meditate. At this moment, it also wanted to do the same, so it closed its eyes and began to meditate with concentration.

"Yo." Seeing this scene, the fast swimming frog also came to Yu Hai, crossed his legs, sat down steadily, closed his eyes, and began to feel the wave force flowing around him. The air around him seemed to become quiet because of the elves' concentration.

"Luca." Lucario also walked over quickly. For some reason, as long as Yu Hai was around, its heart would become extremely peaceful and it could devote itself to a state of meditation.

Yesterday, because Yu Hai was not there, it couldn't calm down no matter how hard it tried, and even suffered from insomnia last night.

At this moment, it approached Yu Hai, adjusted its breathing, and gradually entered deep meditation.

"Woo." Ninetails lay quietly on Yu Hai's legs. It could meditate while lying down. It enjoyed the feeling of lying next to Yu Hai. Perhaps it was influenced by Luo Ke. After listening to Luo Ke's story, it liked this intimate way of getting along more and more.

As for what Luo Ke is doing now?
After returning to the Deep Gray Gym, rumors of ghosts spread in the gym. Because the ingredients in the gym were often moved, sometimes there would be a table of delicious food waiting for Xiaogang, who was exhausted after the gym battle, to enjoy.

Lakeside cabin——

Since Ukai was fishing, it created a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

Those elves who like quietness and meditation come here one after another and sit quietly.

As time went by, the team added more Pokémon such as the Gem Starfish, Poison Frog, Magneto, Clay Giant, and Haxorus.

They each found a comfortable position, floating in the air or squatting on the grass, and immersed themselves in this peaceful atmosphere together.

Time passed quietly until the sun set and the sky was dyed orange-red.

In the evening, a sudden and gentle shout broke the tranquility of the lake and echoed in the silent lake for a long time.

"Ahai, I'm here to see you..."
