Pokémon: The Sims.

Chapter 102 Alan and Liz

Background music: Flying to the distant sky (on repeat until the end of the next chapter)
------

On the frontal battlefield.

The Dragon and the Earth have entered into an all-out war with no reservations.

The sky had been clear just moments before, but now it was covered with dark clouds. The continuous drizzle felt gentle on her face, but it made Liz feel very down.

"Lady Liz, Ares and Artes are leading their troops and charging in from the rear."

One of Liz's generals, Yu Longlin, spoke calmly, his expression unchanged.

They were not alarmed by being surrounded.

Because they had long realized that this earth kingdom was no match for them in direct combat.

Said without politeness.

As long as no further trouble arises, they will eventually win even if they are surrounded.

At this moment, Yu Longfeng alone, leading a single force, was enough to deal with Hephaestus ahead.

"Let fire and mountains deal with them, the rest of you continue forward and defeat Hephaestus's forces first."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing the command, Yu Longlin immediately went to relay the order.

"This annoying rain just won't stop."

Liz tilted her head back to look at the sky, raised one hand and placed it in front of her breastplate, trying to calm her restless heart.

The war continues.

Blood dyes the earth red.

Liz rode her white horse along the Silver Mountain Road, and looking at the distant battlefield, she was deeply moved.

The corpses of humans and Pokémon were scattered throughout the battlefield.

Some people used their own bodies to block spears from the enemy in order to protect their Pokémon.

Some Pokémon fight alone against seven or eight rival Pokémon in order to protect their trainers.

Some people knelt beside the corpses of their Pokémon, overwhelmed with grief and losing their will to fight.

Some Pokémon, covered in blood, stood guard beside the Beastmaster's corpse until their dying breath, their eyes already filled with the will to die.

Many people who witness this scene inevitably fall into pain and struggle.

The same goes for Liz.

Even so, they still had to hold onto their weapons and continue fighting.

It was both to ensure that their comrades would not have sacrificed in vain, and to bring about true peace.

“Leon.”

Scorpion King looked at the Beastmasters and Pokémon, somewhat at a loss.

He doesn't know if what they're doing is right or wrong.

This left him feeling lost.

"War is necessary."

Liz murmured something.

It was as if she was explaining to Scorpio King, and also as if she was convincing herself.

"As long as humans continue to compete, Pokémon will continue to die in large numbers in an endless war, becoming victims of human hatred."

"I must win this battle."

"Only when there are no more wars between humans will there be a chance to completely improve the relationship and conflict between humans and Pokémon."

"Only then can that ideal of peace truly come to fruition."

Liz pursed her lips, gripping the spear tightly in her hand, her gaze fixed firmly on the battlefield.

"I want to live in a peaceful era with A-Lan and with all of you!"

Just then, a ripple appeared on the battlefield ahead.

Suddenly, the forces of the Dragon Kingdom appeared out of the Viridian Forest.

"Ah Lan is here?!"

Liz's face lit up with joy, but to her surprise, she did not see Wu Ge.

Liz had no choice but to think about it.

She led the remaining troops forward, crushing them from both sides, and joined forces with the troops on the other side to attack from both ends.

Hephaestus's light cavalry was completely unprepared for the presence of men in their rear. Having lost their escape route, they were quickly wiped out, and Hephaestus's head was pierced by Liz's own hand.

"Where's Ah Lan?!"

Liz, still not seeing Wu Ge, asked anxiously.

"Lady Liz, Lady Aran has remained on the sea route."

The fleet commander quickly informed Liz of what he knew.

“You, go and call Yu Longlin over here.”

For some reason, Liz's breathing became somewhat disordered after hearing what the fleet commander said.

She rested one hand on the horse's back, letting it go and call its deputy general.

"Lady Liz."

"Next, you will lead the troops to wipe out Ares and Artes, and then continue towards the capital of the Earth Kingdom. Do you understand?"

Liz quickly gave the order and dismounted.

The outcome on the main battlefield is already decided; the Kingdom of Earth has been defeated.

But her heart was filled with unease, so unease that she seemed to have forgotten how to breathe.

"Xiao Yan, hurry, fly south."

She felt a little weak, but she still quickly ran to Charizard's side.

"Lady Liz?"

"I'm going to find Ah Lan."

After leaving those words, Liz rode her fire-breathing dragon southwards.

Apart from the two Gyarados, the other Pokémon followed closely behind.

. . .

What is it like underwater?
Unlike what he had seen in the past, the ocean today seemed somewhat frightening to Wu Ge.

It is lonely, it is quiet, it is despairing.

Wu Ge's body continued to sink.

As he sank, his body gradually lost its temperature.

It wasn't very deep here; at least he could still see the sunlight coming from the sea, though he couldn't feel its warmth anymore.

If we continue down this path...
We probably won't even be able to see the sunlight anymore.

What kind of dragon protects the nation?
It's so pathetic to die all alone in a corner like that.
Liz
You will surely become the king of this land.

You will surely bring a brighter future to the Pokémon of this land.

Even without me, you can still do it.

but
'I don't want to die. '

Wu Ge moved his arms.

He tossed aside the now-cold Beedrill carcass and frantically tried to wade back into the sunlight. 'I can't die yet.'

Wu Ge struggled with all his might, trying to swim back to shore.

What he perceived as 'ample swings' was actually just a powerless swaying with the water's ripples.

The Scyther came into view.

Wu Ge's eyes could no longer see the scene clearly, but he could roughly see the flying mantis swimming up to his side, carrying him towards the sea.

Swish.

In the end, Scyther carried Wu Ge out of the sea and back to the shore.

But even so, what can be done?

The sky remained overcast and rainy, a sight that only made one feel depressed.

That wasn't a continued rainmaking ritual; the sky itself was weeping.

Does God cry?
For whom does God weep?
"Soulai."

Scyther lay down next to Wu Ge, while the other Scythers around him stood dejectedly in place.

He turned his head to look at the body beside him, which was beginning to turn pale, and let out a long, powerless sigh.

He never imagined that Wu Ge, so calm, intelligent, and powerful, would die before him.

All he wants now is to quietly accompany him on this final journey.

"."

Wu Ge's body movements were becoming increasingly faint.

He tilted his head, his blurry vision gazing silently at the sky above the Silver Mountains.

He is not afraid of death.

What does he have to be afraid of? He has a long future ahead of him.

but
In this life, he still has many things he hasn't done.

What he feared was...
I'll never see her again.

There will never be another chance to do it.

Ah Lan, you must always stay by my side.

it is good.

Ah Lan, from now on we'll travel the world together.

it is good.

Ah Lan, please don't leave me for so long again.

it is good.

Ah Lan
good.】

“Liz.”

'I feel like I can't keep the promise I made to you.'

Wu Ge's throat moved slightly.

Her once lovely and lively eyes were now dull and gray, and tears of resentment kept flowing from them.

Tears streamed down her face.

The blood flowing beneath him.

"Soulai."

Upon hearing Wu Ge's voice, the Flying Mantis stood up and glanced at him.

His eyes gradually welled up with tears. He raised his hand to wipe away the tears hanging from the corners of Wu Ge's eyes, then turned around and raised his arm to cover his eyes.

Scenes from the past flashed before Wu Ge's eyes like a revolving lantern, causing a smile to involuntarily appear on his face.

22 years ago.

A young Beedrill, who has not yet become a leader, encounters a human girl with a dusty face who has wandered into Silver Mountain.

He took her home.

She named him Ah Huang.

He knew her name was Liz.

Ah Huang often took Liz with him during that time, feeding her fruit, cuddling her for warmth, and bathing her.

Although it was only a few days, it felt as if Ah Huang had raised Liz.

He was 18 years old then, and she was 8.

He made a complete mess of his first life, living a miserable and unhappy existence, to the point that he even developed a desire to die.

2 years ago.

A gentle, intelligent, and powerful human queen meets a newly reincarnated mini-dragon cub.

She took him back to the palace and showered him with affection.

She named him Alan.

He learned that she was Liz.

Liz held onto Alan tightly, refusing to let go for even a moment. She insisted on doing everything herself, from feeding him with a bottle to helping him shed his skin and wiping his bottom when he caused trouble at school.

Then the tiny dwarf dragon grew and grew...
It grew into a beautiful creature that became famous throughout the country.

Alan took Liz and flew into the sky, into the clouds, and into the sea.

Snowflakes, clouds, and seawater were all delivered by Alan to Liz's hands.

He made her the happiest girl in the entire Dragon Kingdom.

Liz also gave all her tenderness and patience to her beloved Alan without reservation.

Although it was only half a year, it felt like Liz had raised Alan.

He was 18 years old that year, but she was already 28.

He felt that he was very happy in his second life, and he didn't want to die at all; he wanted to live forever.

To protect Liz and realize their ideals, Aran forced himself to become stronger, went to the perilous Silver Mountain to train alone for two years, and also found many companions for Liz.

Two years later.

Aran returned to the palace once again.

The usually aloof Queen disregarded all decorum and etiquette, stepping barefoot onto the lawn and leaping into Alan's arms.

The two vowed never to be apart again.

When the war ends, they will travel around the world together and work together to create a peaceful era.

They went to different battlefields.

but
It seems Ah Lan is going to break her promise.

I want to see you one more time.
One last look,
From south to north,

From start to finish.

"Ah Lan!!!"

A piercing and painful cry echoed from the Silver Mountains.

Along with this, there were also some Pokémon cries.
