Manor Lord of the Elf World

Chapter 130 The Holy Swordsman Kyurem Appears!
Biligion, Gopalooon, Delaqion.

They originally lived a peaceful life on this land.

Until one day, humanity started a war, and countless Pokémon lost their homes, their freedom... and even their lives in the war.

Witnessing all of this, they were furious, so the three Pokémon formed a team called the "Swordsmen".

From that day on, they fought against humans to protect Pokémon that had lost their homeland due to human wars.

However, years of battles have made all three Pokémon realize one thing.

With their current strength, they are probably not enough to stop all of this.

In order to become stronger and to have the power to protect their kind, they began to train diligently day and night.

This time, they came here to become even more powerful holy swordsmen.

They decided to challenge the powerful Pokémon that lived there in order to achieve their training goals.

However, it seems someone has already taken the lead...

It was a human, a human with several Pokémon by his side.

"Hmph, Kyurem isn't a challenge for just anyone." Terakion, filled with hostility towards humans, sneered, "What an overestimation of yourself!"

Gopaleon remained silent, calmly gazing at the scene below.

The human stood for a long time in front of the cave where the Kyurem dwelled, and then slowly but firmly walked into the cave. His figure quickly disappeared into the shadows.

"Shall we go over there too?" Biligion said softly.

Humans are their enemies, and they don't need to care about them, but they cannot stand by and watch the Pokémon in the human's hand perish at the mouth of Kyurem.

They are ready to act at any time to "liberate" those fellow creatures from the human's hands.

"Hmph, let's go see how that guy gets utterly thrashed by Kyurem!" Terakion seemed rather impatient.

Gopalouon nodded slightly, then said in a deep voice, "Alright."

The cave of the giants was very dark.

To help Raven find his way, Victini focused the flames on his large V-shaped ears to illuminate the surroundings.

“Thank you, Victini,” Raven said with a smile.

"Nini~!" Bictini flew around him once.

Serperior followed behind Raven; the cold temperature here was somewhat unaccustomed to it, as it was a Grass-type Pokémon.

But as Raven's Pokémon, it could more or less sense the heavy and tense emotions emanating from its trainer at this moment.

"Woo?"

The monarch serpent couldn't help but turn its head to look over.

"What's wrong? Serperior?" Raven looked over, noticing Serperior's unusual behavior.

"Woo." A hint of worry appeared in the usually arrogant eyes of the Serpent Lord.

“Monarch Serpent…” Raven hadn’t expected Monarch Serpent to have such keen senses.

Well, he was indeed a little nervous. After all, Kyurem was a legendary Pokémon with terrifying strength. With their current power, they were no match for it.

Why fight a battle you know you can't win?
Raven didn't know the answer to that question.

The familiar faces in his territory, and the genuine smiles on the faces of those Pokémon, flashed through his mind.

Machamp, Builder, Dugtrio, Gyarados...

All he knew was that he had to do it. Chaos was imminent, and only by gaining the Kyurem's approval could they protect themselves in this turbulent world.

Raven's mind was racing with thoughts, and his feelings were incredibly complicated, but he still managed to comfort him, saying, "Don't worry, I'm fine, Serpent Lord."

The Serpent Lord remained silent, silently extending a slender vine and firmly grasping Raven's hand.

That look was as if he were saying to Raven: Don't worry, you're not alone, we're here for you.

Seeing this, Raven paused slightly, took a deep breath, his resolve hardened, and nodded emphatically:

"Ok!"

Suddenly, the space in front of them opened up.

Raven looked closely and realized that they had passed through the outer cave and arrived at the central crater!
The space here is vast, and even after so many years, traces of the meteorite impact are still preserved.

The massive meteorite that fell from the sky created a huge crater on the ground, breaking through underground water veins. A large amount of groundwater gushed out and gathered in the crater, forming a vast lake.

It was still dark here. Raven looked around warily, but he didn't see Kyurem.

But the almost solidified cold air and the terrifying sense of oppression told them that Kyurem was here!
Raven clenched his fist and shouted loudly to those around him:
"Come forth, Kyurem! I am Raven, the third prince of the Kingdom of Eindoark, here to challenge you! Reshiram and Zekrom have been born, and a terrible war will break out in the Unova region. Countless humans and Pokémon will lose their lives."

"I want to stop all of this, so we need your power—in return, I will help you regain your lost primal power to replenish your strength! Kyurem, come forth!"

The words fell.

For a long time, there was no response from the dimly lit cave; it was so quiet that the sound of water flowing in the underground water veins could be clearly heard.

"Not here?" Raven asked, somewhat unwilling.

"Um……"

Suddenly, a faint sound came from the depths of the cave shrouded in darkness.

The voice sounded deep and resonant, with an undeniable air of authority.

Immediately afterwards, something seemed to move deep within the cave, and billowing cold air spread out from it, swirling around the ground and continuously expanding outwards.

When this cold air came into contact with the huge lake, the surface of the lake froze instantly, and the ice layer spread. In the blink of an eye, the entire lake had turned into a frozen lake filled with cold air!

Accompanied by heavy footsteps, a weathered yet majestic voice rang out from the darkness.

"Do you deserve my power?"

Kyurem's massive body slowly emerged from the darkness, casting its gaze down upon the human boy on the opposite bank of the frozen lake.

An invisible pressure swept out from its body, mixed with an ancient aura and a chill that seemed capable of freezing everything.

Raven's body tensed up, and his hair, clothes, and the scales on Serpent's body were instantly covered with a layer of frost, as if they had been frozen.

Even the flames on Victini's body dimmed for a moment.

Is this a legendary Pokémon? It didn't even use any moves, yet its aura alone could have such a huge impact on others.

"I have to give it a try no matter what!" Raven said in a deep voice, meeting Kyurem's gaze.

Kyurem stared at him, remaining silent for a long time.

There was an undeniable sense of oppression in the air.

Raven's expression remained resolute.

After a long while, Kyurem finally spoke again, his voice carrying a hint of intriguing emotion.

"Hmph, very good."
