My Pokémon Story of Seasons

Chapter 230 The Study of the Witch

Tong Hua followed Mu Mu through rows of bookshelves, finally stopping in a corner by the window.

Mumu pointed mysteriously ahead, and Tong Hua looked in that direction and was stunned.

Ritsumi and Koyo were sitting side by side on a bench by the window, with a book open in front of them, but neither of them was clearly reading it seriously.

Ritsumi's cheeks flushed slightly, and she occasionally stole glances at Hikaru beside her.

Huang Yao, on the other hand, sat up straight, looking as tense as if he were taking some important exam.

Wow.

Tong Hua unconsciously revealed a "motherly smile" on her face. Sure enough, this kind of innocent romance is an indispensable part of campus life, or rather, "youth"!

"Bree~" Tibrim covered her mouth with her little paws, her eyes curving into crescents. As a witch, she was clearly powerless against topics related to romance.

However, the good times didn't last long. Huang Yao seemed too nervous and accidentally knocked over the pencil case on the table. With a "crash," pencils and erasers scattered all over the floor.

"I'm sorry!" Huang Yao hurriedly squatted down to pick it up, but bumped his head on the corner of the table with a dull thud.

Ritsumei couldn't help but laugh out loud, and squatted down to help him tidy up: "Strange, I remember you were having a stroke of good luck recently, right? How come you've suddenly become so unlucky today?"

"I...I just—" Huang Yao stammered, unable to speak, his ears turning bright red.

"However, this clumsy appearance can also be considered a charming and adorable side."

"C-Cute?!" Huang Yao suddenly looked up, only to bump into the table with a "thud".

Ritsumi finally couldn't help but burst out laughing. Her clear and melodious laughter stunned Kyou for a moment.

Tong Hua and Mu Mu tried their best to suppress their laughter behind the bookshelf, while Tibrim was already laughing so hard that she rolled around on Tong Hua's shoulder.

Just as the group was engrossed in watching, Riolu and Forest Lizard had somehow joined them.

Riolu unconsciously revealed the same expression as Tong Hua, while the forest lizard shook its head helplessly, seemingly puzzled by this human behavior.

"What's this? When you and Celebi were being affectionate, you were even more ruthless than those two. Right? A forest lizard kiss?"

""

Riolu grinned mischievously and nudged the forest lizard with his elbow.

The forest lizard's face instantly turned bright red, and it frantically waved its paws, groaning, "Partner! Don't, don't talk nonsense!"

He subconsciously cast a pleading look at Tong Hua, forgetting that Riolu and Tong Hua were essentially the same person.

At this moment, Tong Hua was looking at him with a mischievous "I see" smile, and even Tibrim on his shoulder showed a meaningful expression.

At the same time, while picking up stationery, Kyou accidentally touched Ritsumi's hand. Both of them quickly pulled their hands back as if electrocuted, and the atmosphere instantly became even more ambiguous.

"I'm sorry!" Huang Yao stammered as he apologized.

Ritsumi lowered her head and said softly, "It's okay—"

At this crucial moment, Mumu, trying too hard to suppress her laughter, accidentally bumped into the bookshelf. Several books fell to the ground with a "thud," shattering the idyllic atmosphere.

"Who's there?" Huang Yao immediately stood up alertly.

Tong Hua quickly pulled Mu Mu to hide behind a more secluded bookshelf, while Tibrim cleverly used her superpowers to catch the books that were about to fall and gently put them back in their original positions.

Lu Mei and Huang Yao looked around in confusion for a while, and only breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that there was no movement.

Afterwards, Tong Hua and Mu Mu were too embarrassed to peek anymore. The two of them and the Pokémon found an empty table and decided to start working on their report assignment.

The research topic was naturally decided by Tong Hua, who unhesitatingly chose "The Legend of the Witch" as her subject.

question.

"The legendary red-haired witch from the Galar region, a hundred years ago."

Let's investigate what makes Brimwyn, with whom she has a close relationship, so special.

Tong Hua spread out the manuscript paper, and Tibrim sat obediently to the side.

"Ooh." "Kuku."

Riolu and Forest Lizard nodded. "Anyway, you're going to research Brimwyn, right? Then let us help you find the information!"

Mumu curiously leaned closer: "So where should we start our research?"

This article doesn't contain a single detailed name or place; it only contains this one photo.

After thinking for a moment, Tong Hua suddenly remembered the badge hidden in the photo that Tibrim had just pointed out to him.

"Let's start with this," Tong Hua said, pointing it out to Mu Mu in the photo.

"This should be the crest of a family in the Galar region from a hundred years ago. Although the image is a bit blurry, as long as we can find out which family it is, we should be able to trace it back and confirm the identity of this red-haired witch."

After Tong Hua finished speaking, he glanced at Tibrim beside him.

This little guy clearly knows everything, but he just won't say. But that's fine, it arouses Tong Hua's curiosity and desire to explore.

"In that case, let's start by investigating the cultural history of the Galar region."

I know where the relevant books are. Riolu and Forest Lizard, please come with me to move the books.

"Junior brother, you think about how to write the report. I'm counting on you!"

"No problem, you can go ahead." Tong Hua nodded and watched as Mumu led the two Pokémon toward the bookshelf section deep inside the library.

After they walked away, Tong Hua turned to the side and pretended to be cute, Tibrim.

The little guy was still looking at that old photo when Tong Hua tried to use her waveguide power to secretly establish a connection between the two of them so she could read their minds, but she easily thwarted her attempt.

"Bree~"

Tibrim gave Tong Hua a smug look before immersing herself in her memories again.

Half an hour later, Tong Hua and Mu Mu finally found the key clue in a book called "A Study of the Heraldry of the Galle Nobles".

"Found it!" Mumu excitedly pointed to a badge pattern on the page. "This is it! The combination of stars and a wand—it's the Wanda family crest!"

At the same time, Tong Hua also found records of this family in a history book from the Galerian Kingdom era.

"Among the royal families of the Galar region are the Sord family, whose emblem is a sword, and the Hilde family, whose emblem is a shield—"

There is also the Wanda family, which is little known to the world because they didn't have much of a role in Dark Legends.

Although there are few records of it in legends, the Galar region and the neighboring Carlos region fought a war that lasted for hundreds of years in the history of the Kingdom before the Alliance calendar.

Ultimately, the war was ended by the ultimate weapon from the Carlos region. And it was the first head of House Wanda who preserved the hope of the Galar Kingdom under the devastating blow of the ultimate weapon, allowing the kingdom to recuperate and quickly restore its strength.

Tong Hua continued reading the records in the book, her voice filled with amazement: "The Wanda family is skilled in—spatial magic?"

Before the final weapon attack, they used spatial magic to relocate key areas of the capital, preserving the foundation of the kingdom.

Mumu leaned closer to look at the illustration in the book, which was a very complex magic circle pattern.

"Magic? So—does such a thing really exist?"

Tong Hua's gaze involuntarily drifted to Tibrim on her shoulder. The little guy was intently staring at the magic circle pattern in the book, his little paws unconsciously gesturing as if he were trying to recall something.

"Whether it exists or not, these are research topics we can include in our report."

"Hmm————" Mu Mu nodded subconsciously, trying to follow Tong Hua's train of thought.

"So, that red-haired witch from 100 years ago was a descendant of the Wanda family. And she had a special Brimwyn, which is what we need to study?"

So, were all those things I just mentioned part of the research background?

As soon as Mu Mu finished speaking, she saw Tong Hua write a long section of research background on the draft.

"Because they did not covet power and pursued peace wholeheartedly, coupled with their powerful magical abilities, which aroused the jealousy of other royal families, the Wanda family gradually declined."

This red-haired witch seems to be the last inheritor of the family's magical skills —
