Pokémon: All About the Breeding House

Chapter 253 May the Frost Milk Fairy Be Happy!

Alcremie has been at the nursery for a few days now.

He had a very fulfilling time every day during that period.

In the morning, I made some bread and desserts with Miss Goth and Monini. After breakfast, I went to the cottage with Miss Goth and tried to make some desserts myself. I then gave these desserts to the children in the after-school care center to taste.

When we returned to the pens in the afternoon and had lunch, Fangyan personally taught it how to make even more delicious desserts.

At this moment, Fang Yan was standing next to Soapcake, watching Soapcake slowly spread cream on a small cake.

"Yes, desserts are a very happy food because they can make both the person eating them and the Pokémon feel satisfied and happy. The role of us pastry chefs is to put the happiness we want them to feel into the desserts we make, and then let the person tasting them and the Pokémon discover it."

Fang Yan said, watching Frost Milk Fairy's careful movements.

With her eyes wide open, Sombra focused intently on spreading the cream and then placed a cherry on top of the cake.

"Ee-ma~"

Frost Fairy looked up at Fang Yan, who scooped up a spoonful and put it in his mouth.

Seeing the expectant look in Alcremie's eyes, Fang Yan first praised its progress, and then asked Alcremie, "Alcremie, do you feel happy when you make desserts?"

Hearing the question in dialect, Frost Fairy looked puzzled.

However, it still nodded.

Fang Yan fell silent upon seeing this.

I scooped up another spoonful of dessert and put it in my mouth.

Suddenly, she spoke up, "Alcremie, do you like the nursery?"

Before Alcremie could speak, Fang Yan continued, "Look at the nursery. Although it's covered in snowflakes, all the Pokémon are very happy. The Queen Bee and her three bees gather and brew delicious sweet honey, Miltank produces fresh and delicious Moo Moo milk, and Mount Goat and the others produce nutritious goat milk."

"Here, you can play with your Pokémon friends to your heart's content. When it snows, you can hide inside the house. When you are sad or upset, you can seek comfort from your good friends or humans."

Fang Yan smiled at Soapcake and asked, "So, Soapcake, does making desserts make you happy?"

Alcremie fell silent.

Seeing this, Fang Yan gently pinched its nose.

"Alcremie, you know what? When I first opened this breeding center, I didn't expect to be able to raise so many Pokémon. My encounters with them were always full of surprises, but also very reasonable. I love them, so I will give a lot to love them without thinking about what they will give back. I believe they think the same way."

"Alcremie, this is your home, so don't be afraid anymore, okay?"

Alcremie recalled its arduous journey. Originally a pastry chef in a family, its position was taken by other Alcremies, forcing it to wander. No one would accept it, and it was eventually captured by a Pokémon hunter and imprisoned for a long time. Finally, it escaped and traveled south with Rhyperior.

I recalled the few days I spent in the nursery. The Queen Bee would give me delicious honey, Shana would take me to the Lake District, I'd climb onto Lapras's back to play, Gengar would play pranks on me, Miss Sulkie would tell me stories, Gothic would take me to play with children, and Ninetales would bring me warmth—

Frost Fairy's tears dripped onto the table.

"Ee-mae————"

The Alcremie's crying attracted all of Gengar and the others.

Super Armored Rhino immediately squeezed into the kitchen, tore down the door, and after finding that Frost Fairy was alright, was planted in the snow by Miss Gothic.

The other Pokémon simply watched quietly.

When Frost Fairy stopped crying and was catching her breath, Fang Yan gently said, "We're family, aren't we?"

Creamy Fairy nodded emphatically.

"Ee-ma".

Ok.

Creamy Fairy wiped away her tears, then looked at Fang Yan and said, "Ee-ma."

I enjoy making desserts.

I'm no longer afraid of being kicked out for making bad desserts.

Fang Yan nodded.

"Only by liking something can you feel happy, right, Alcremie?"

Creamy Fairy nodded.

Miss Skirt seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Fang Yan and Frost Milk Fairy with tender eyes.

The flowers on her head began to emit a sweet fragrance, filling the entire kitchen.

Alcremie regained her composure, took out a bowl, made several blobs of cream in it, then poured in the sweet treats given to her by the Queen Bee, along with some Moo Moo fresh milk, and stirred it continuously.

Until the cream turns golden.

Then we started making the cake base.

Step by step, its little body kept running around the kitchen. Miss Gothic saw that it was a little overwhelmed and wanted to help, but Fang Yan shook his head to stop him.

"Goethe".

Humph.

Miss Goth stopped what she was doing.

Fang Yan watched quietly as Soap Fairy spread the cream on the cream and then made a flower shape.

The Creamy Fairy's special golden and sweet mini cakes are now complete.

Under the expectant gaze of the fairy, Fang Yan scooped up a spoonful and put it in his mouth.

The flavor is smooth and creamy, sweet but not cloying. In the midst of winter, one can feel the fragrance of spring, the aroma of flowers in a garden, the gentle caress of the spring breeze on one's face, and the slow flow of a gentle stream into one's heart.

"I felt myself running in the sunset, that was my lost youth—"

Fang Yan suddenly spoke up.

Frost Fairy didn't understand and was about to ask when she saw Fang Yan give her a thumbs up.

"What I mean is, the undisputed number one dessert master of the animal nursery, Alcremie!"

"Kou Jie"

Great!

Gengar floated over, then snatched the spoon from Fangyan and took a bite.

"Kou Jie—"

It tastes even better than what they make in the local dialect.

awesome!

While you're right, isn't it a bit inappropriate to say that to Gengar's face?

Fangyan tugged at Gengar's tail, and Gengar spun around in mid-air, deflated.

"You can't just wander around the kitchen, you know!"

While Fangyan was still trying to stop Gengar, Gothic and the others started tasting the little cakes made by Alcremie, and all of them gave Alcremie a thumbs up.

After Alcremie saw that all the Pokémon had tasted it, it picked up the small cake, ran out of the kitchen, went to Rhyperior, and handed it to Rhyperior.

The Super Armored Rhinoceros took a bite.

I gave Alcremie a thumbs up.

That's wonderful, Alcremie.

You did it!

Frosty Fairy smiled sweetly.

After Alcremie returned to the kitchen, Fang Yan said, "Tomorrow, the customers in Twinleaf Town can try Alcremie's desserts."

Creamy Fairy looked on with anticipation.

"Then I'll have to ask you for help next, Alcremie."

Alcremie, using a gesture she'd learned from Shana, patted her chest vigorously.

"Ee-ma~"

Leave it to me.

Fang Yan nodded with a smile.
