Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

Little Dot patted its chest with its paw and assured Lin Xuan.

However, after Lin Xuan entered the bedroom, Xiao Dian sat on the sofa and fell into a thinking mode.

He knew that Lin Xuan's recent expenses had been quite high because of him, so he wondered what he could do to earn some money to supplement the family income.

After sitting for a few minutes, Xiao Dian suddenly remembered what Cheng Yin had said in the battle club that morning.

If you win the provincial championship, you'll get a prize of a whole million!

Although Xiaodian couldn't even count how many tree fruits this amount of money could buy, she knew it would definitely be enough to make up for her recent expenses.

Thinking of this, a fighting spirit suddenly ignited in Xiao Dian's eyes. He wanted to become stronger, win the provincial competition, and then... make money!

He only participated in the competition for three things: making money! Making money! And damn making money!

Perhaps because she had a goal in mind, Xiao Dian suddenly felt motivated, took out the manual again, opened the window, and prepared to go out to find a suitable place to train.

But the moment Xiaodian flew out the window, she suddenly remembered how worried Lin Xuan had been when she suddenly left not long ago. So she turned back and arranged things in the room for two minutes before finally leaving satisfied.

Before leaving, they didn't forget to take a few tree fruits with them, since they could eat them when they were tired from training.

She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland.

"Holy crap! How long have I been asleep?"

Lin Xuan looked at the orange-red sunlight shining through the curtains outside the window. He had slept through the entire afternoon.

"I slept all afternoon, what a waste!"

Sure enough, Lin Xuan checked the time on her phone and saw it was already six o'clock. She could still see that Li Yuan had wanted to play games with her at noon. She silently replied to him: Asleep, get lost!

Then Lin Xuan got out of bed, mainly because he was hungry. He hadn't eaten lunch and went to sleep, and ended up sleeping until dinner time.

If his mother finds out, she'll probably nag him for a long time.

"What's Little One doing? Why is it so quiet?"

Lin Xuan noticed that it was unusually quiet outside the room. She wondered if Xiao Dian was watching a TV series at this hour.

When they went outside, they found that Xiao Dian had disappeared, and there was a note stuck on the ground.

The top of the note was blacked out, and Lin Xuan could see through the gaps in the black lines that Xiaodian seemed to have tried to write something, but what she wrote was so ugly that she eventually crossed it out.

After all, with just those three tiny claws, how can you expect him to write well?

As for the lower middle part of the note, there were some simple line drawings. Although they were also ugly, Lin Xuan's understanding of small dots... made it impossible for him to understand them.

The painting appears to depict a small mouse with wings, a sun in the sky, and something painted in dark black... which seems to be a tree?

Xiao Dian's abstract art style was indeed beyond the comprehension of someone like Lin Xuan from the mortal world. However, looking at the open balcony window, Lin Xuan guessed that this guy must have gone out to train on his own.

It wasn't that he guessed anything from the painting; he still couldn't understand it. It was simply because the secret manual on the table was gone.

It's a good thing that Xiao Dian is ambitious, so Lin Xuan just ordered takeout and didn't bother with it anymore. Anyway, this guy will come back on his own when he's hungry, so she just ordered takeout first.

Just as Lin Xuan finished her takeout and was about to start her live stream, Xiao Dian flew back through the balcony window.

"The takeout is in the microwave, be careful not to burn yourself when you take it out!"

Hearing the noise outside the room, Lin Xuan knew that Xiao Dian had returned, and reminded her of it.

However, since he had already started broadcasting, question marks began to appear in the comments section.

【? ? ? 】

[Tell me! Have you been secretly doing something cute behind our backs?]

Is Mimikyu-sensei usually this gentle?

[Waaaaah, I also want to hear Mimikyu-sensei's gentle yet loud roar!]

[When Teacher Mimikyu is with Mengmengda, can you think of me? I'd like to feel a sense of participation.]

Lin Xuan's lips twitched. What was all this about? Could he say that his tone was because he wasn't fully awake?

Chapter 63 The Forsaken Child

"There's no cuteness! I'm saying it again, there's no cuteness!"

Lin Xuan solemnly announced this to the viewers in the live stream.

"Little one just ran out by himself and is back now."

Lin Xuan originally thought that the comments would become more normal after she explained these things, but unexpectedly they became even stranger.

[Could Teacher Mimikyu explain using the same tone as before?]

[I want the gentle limited edition Mimikyu]

[They're all heretics! A live stream without loud shouting is soulless.]

"Cough cough cough! I was just a little sleepy, stop it, let's continue the explanation."

Lin Xuan coughed twice and picked up the water glass on the table to drink some water to refresh herself, feeling that her condition had returned a little better.

"Thanks to [Can Teacher Mimiqiu scold me?] for the awesome comment, uh... no. Also, although people's preferences are free, I still want to advise this netizen... don't go crazy here."

Congratulations to the boss for paying to be scolded!

Where's Xiao Zhong?! I haven't seen him all day? Does he have a match tonight?!

[No, today is still the round of 128 to 64. Xiao Zhong's match has already finished.]

The chat was a bit strange; Xiao Zhong, who's been watching Lin Xuan's livestream almost every day, wasn't there today. He should have been the one spending money to get flamed at this time.

However, Lin Xuan didn't find it strange. After all, it was during the competition. It would be strange if Zhong Mingyi were to be constantly chatting in the group and getting insulted at this time. He probably had something important to do.

"After today's match, the subsequent matches will be held over the weekend. I'll go cheer him on then... I mean, give him some encouragement."

【? ? ? 】

[Teacher Mimi Qiu is going to act inhuman again.]

Haven't you gotten your revenge for last time?

"You can't say that. I just went to cheer on Xiao Zhong."

While explaining to the chat, Lin Xuan clicked into a live stream of a match, which was about to start in three minutes.

"Our player today is also very strong. In previous matches, he defeated all his opponents with only one Pokémon, so no one has seen his second Pokémon yet."

There aren't many truly formidable Pokémon that can sweep through the enemy ranks with just one Pokémon. Pokémon capable of such a feat are usually at least four-star level. Even Zhong Mingyi's attempt to show off with a three-star Venusaur backfired thanks to Lin Xuan's assistance.

[It's just one blow through, our Xiao Zhong can do that too!]

[But why have I never heard of this player before?]

Indeed, they don't seem to be particularly famous.

Lin Xuan frowned as well, because he couldn't find any information about this player either. There was no record of him participating in any tournaments before this one, as if he had appeared out of nowhere.

"Never mind all that, just know this player is very strong, the match begins!"

As the countdown began on the screen, both players simultaneously released their Pokémon. The opposing player released Absol, while the mysterious player released Flygon.

"Flygon, as everyone knows, is a Ground/Dragon type, and that guy who can't use Dragon Dance is also known as Little Flygon! I don't need to say more about how powerful Flygon is, especially since our player used Flygon to directly defeat the opponent before."

Lin Xuan could tell at a glance that this Desert Dragonfly was definitely four-star level. As for its opponent, Absol, its strength might also be at the top level among three-star creatures, but there was still a clear gap.

[No suspense here!]

The gap in strength is too large.

[Waaaaah, Absol is so handsome! So pitiful!]

The viewers in the live stream could still roughly tell the difference in skill level.

"Alright, Absol showed no fear in the face of the formidable enemy, charging straight in with a surprise attack! Absol's in! Absol unleashed a full-force strike! Ugh! I'll fight you to the death... Absol falls!"

Lin Xuan fell silent as he watched Absol, who had been struck by a desert dragonfly's claw and lay motionless on the screen.

Although he knew Absol was relatively fragile, he didn't expect it to be gone with just one claw strike, before he could even finish his lines.

"I hadn't even finished my lines, and it's already over? Desert Dragonfly's lunchbox was completely taken away! Only rice, no vegetables, not even a single leaf! They're not cooperating at all! There's no entertainment value whatsoever!"

[Deduct lunchboxes! Deduct lunchboxes!]

[This desert dragonfly is amazing!]

[It arrived in a single paw strike, what's there to say?]

[It's over!]

After Absol, the opposing team sent out a Butterfree, but it was still just a matter of a Dragon Claw in the hands of Flygon.

"If all the Pokémon that follow this player have this level of strength, it will probably become one of the obstacles for Xiao Zhong to win the championship."

After a careful analysis, Lin Xuan said that although he had not seen Zhong Mingyi's main Pokémon in this tournament, this Flygon was definitely no less powerful than the previous four-star Garchomp, and was equally terrifying.

[Understood, start breastfeeding!]

[Find an opportunity to jinx Xiao Zhong before he even gets a chance to meet him!]

You guys are so mean, but I love it~

Although the opposing player only had one Pokémon left, this was the main event. If Lin Xuan remembered correctly, the opposing player also had a four-star Pokémon.
