Around the campfire.

Xiao Yao carefully wiped the water droplets off Xiao Zhi's body with a towel.

As Xiao Yao gently moved, the fire that had been burning inside Xiao Zhi's body was gradually extinguished.

Literally, it means to relieve internal heat.

"Xiao Zhi, you've gone a bit too far this time."

"It's because it said Pikachu deliberately abandoned me."

"That's because you said some really hurtful things to Lucario."

Xiao Yao gently stroked Xiao Zhi.

“Lucario is already pitiful. He has been asleep for thousands of years. Everything he knows has become history, and even the truth he sees may not be true.”

"Because of these things, Lucario began to have some doubts about the bond between humans and Pokémon."

Of course, I didn't say it was all Ash's fault.

Lucario must have made some mistakes too, Ash. We've all seen the bond between you and Pikachu.

We all know that neither you nor Pikachu would abandon each other.

But Lucario doesn't understand. Because of that incident, Lucario has doubts about the relationship between humans and Pokémon, which is why it said those things.

Imagine you were Lucario. Pikachu said it was abandoning you and sealing you away, then told you it was all a lie. How would you feel?

After listening to Xiao Yao's words.

Ash actually fell into deep thought.

If that were really me.

"I'm going to go crazy."

Ash gazed at the bright moon in the sky and murmured.

At that moment, Ash seemed to truly understand Lucario.

"So, Ash, when you meet Lucario later, make sure to have a good talk with him~ You two will definitely become good friends."

"Yeah...I will."

[Qianli: As expected of my daughter, she's so understanding!]

[Hanako: Yes, Xiaoyao would be perfect as a wife~]

Seeing Xiaoyao's performance, Huazi became even more convinced of the comments mentioned in the system reward manual.

Gentle, virtuous, and understanding.

This description is indeed very accurate!

……

In the picture—

Lucario leaned against a large tree, looking up at the starry sky that was no different from a thousand years ago.

Perhaps a thousand years ago at this moment, Aaron was also gazing at the same night sky.

Time seems to freeze at this moment.

At this moment, a figure gradually walked into the frame.

This person was dressed in green and wore blue glasses.

He is Xiao Yao's younger brother, Xiao Sheng.

Xiao Sheng walked up to Lucario.

Lucario glanced at Xiaosheng but didn't say anything more.

Lucario had a decent impression of this kid.

Seeing Lucario's gaze, Max mysteriously took something out from behind him.

"Lucario has never eaten this before!"

'what? '

"This is chocolate! They say that eating something sweet can cheer you up when you're in a bad mood!"

As he spoke, Xiaosheng broke off a large piece of chocolate and handed it to Lucario.

"Come on, have a taste."

Lucario did not refuse.

It reached out and took the chocolate from Xiaosheng's hand, sniffed it, and then ate it directly.

Perhaps it was Xiao Sheng's words, or perhaps it was the sweetness of the chocolate.

Lucario actually smiled slightly.

Its initially anxious heart gradually calmed down.

[Musashi: Stop! Dogs and cats can't eat chocolate!]

[Kojiro: That's right! When my family had a Growlithe, it accidentally ate a piece of chocolate, and it almost died if it hadn't been rescued in time!]

[Ash: Ah! There's such a thing!]

[Xiao Gang: Yes, Pokémon, while magical creatures, retain some animal characteristics to a certain extent. For example, dogs can't eat chocolate. Chocolate is highly poisonous to dogs!]

[Xiaoxia: Why do you seem so unconcerned about Lucario, Brock?]

[Xiao Gang: Because although Lucario is a dog, it has the Steel type, and the Steel type is immune to poison.]

[Ash: Brock! You're amazing!]

[Xiao Gang: That's right, I'm going to become the world's number one breeder! That's common sense!]

[Xiao Sheng: Whew! That scared me to death! I thought something bad was going to happen!]

Guandu, Baiyin Town.

Musashi and Kojiro looked at each other in bewilderment.

They...seemed a bit embarrassing.

"Kojiro, it's all your fault."

"Yeah, you made us embarrass the Rockets again, meow."

"We're doomed! Our year-end bonuses are ruined!"

"Wasn't it already canceled, meow?"

"That's right! Let's find a way to catch Pikachu, then we'll have our year-end bonuses covered!"

"Maybe I can even get a promotion and a raise!"

"Become a cadre!"

"This feels amazing! Meow!"

Professor Oak: Wow, there's such a thing? I'll have to look into that someday.

[Hanako: Both of Chisato's children are excellent. Xiaoyao will be a virtuous wife in the future, and Xiaosheng is so understanding; he will definitely become a good husband.]

[Qianli: Hehe, these two kids are my precious darlings! And their excellence is all their own doing. Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng have always been like that! They live only to be themselves, not to strive to be someone else's wife or husband.]

[Hanako: I'm sorry, it was my oversight.]

[Itagaki: I envy kids like that.]

The thought of Xiaoyin gave Banmu a headache.

This kid is always going against his father!

……

In the picture—

Thanks to May and Max's efforts, Ash and Lucario overcame their grudges against each other.

Of course, expecting to reconcile immediately is unrealistic.

But at least the atmosphere won't be so oppressive when we're together.

at the same time.

Pikachu and Mew, who had spent the whole day playing inside the World Tree, collapsed from exhaustion.

Pikachu misses Ash a little.
