Manor Lord in the Pokémon World

At the same time, Fangzhou arrived at the manor gate.

Pierre rode an armored rhinoceros, pulling a large wooden cart loaded with more than thirty pomelo saplings.

"Fangzhou, I've delivered all the saplings you requested!"

Pierre deftly dismounted from the armored rhinoceros, wiped the sweat from his brow, and pointed to the cart with a smile, "These are all the best quality seedlings from the Orange Blossom City nursery, guaranteed survival rate!"

"Thank you so much, Mr. Pierre, you've been a great help!" Fang Zhou quickly stepped forward and settled the payment without hesitation.

Then he directed the tropical dragons to move the fruit tree seedlings to the manor, ready to begin construction.

With these thirty-odd fruit tree saplings, plus the ten already planted, once they grow up, the manor will be a lush green even in summer.

Just then, a series of chirping sounds were heard, and the little fire monkey ran over in a panic.

Fangzhou's heart skipped a beat when he saw it like this, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.

He rubbed his temples helplessly, squatted down, and asked, "Didn't I tell you to let the mushroom rest after feeding it its medicine? What happened this time?"

"Chirp! Chirp chirp chirp!!" The little fire monkey waved its arms and legs excitedly, gesturing wildly, clearly very anxious.

(It exploded! It exploded! After drinking the medicine, the velvet mushroom suddenly exploded inside its body! Its whole body turned black!)

Fang Zhou's expression changed slightly after hearing this, and he immediately stood up. "Come on, take me to see!"

Upon entering the textile workshop, Ark couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for the drooling mushroom that had become unrecognizable and pitiful in just half a day.

He really didn't expect that Chimchar's bad luck would manifest so frequently, even causing it to explode after taking a medicine.

With a sigh, Fangzhou pointed to Kirlia, who had followed him, "From now on, Kirlia will take care of it."

If the little fire monkey were to take care of the breech-shroom, Ark would be worried that the breech-shroom might actually die there.

"Chirp~" The little Flame Monkey looked dejected, indicating that it understood and would stay away from Breloom.

After that, things were calm. With Kirlia watching over them, Breloom didn't dare to do anything and obediently focused on recovering.

As dusk fell, wisps of smoke rose from the cabin. Ark had prepared dinner for the Pokémon when he suddenly realized that Chimchar was missing.

His heart sank, and he quickly asked the other Pokémon.

"Ao Si~"

Tropical Dragon said it saw the little fire monkey walk towards the river, but it was busy planting fruit trees at the time and didn't pay attention.

Fangzhou walked towards the riverbank and followed the stream until he finally spotted a bright orange-red figure.

The little fire monkey was sitting on a large rock by the river, hugging its knees, staring blankly at the sunset in the distance.

Fangzhou sat down next to it.

The little fire monkey was listless, and when it saw the Ark approaching, it let out a soft cry.

Ark knew what was bothering it, so it patted its little head and comforted it, "It's okay, it's alright now."

The little fire monkey is very sad.

It is very kind and powerful, and it will help any human or Pokémon that needs help without hesitation.

But every time, his good intentions backfire, causing trouble for others instead.

Even getting close to it will bring misfortune.

It moved a little further away, worried that it might affect the Ark.

Sometimes I even think that I should find a place to live where there are no Pokémon or humans, so that I won't bother others.

Fangzhou then opened the Little Flame Monkey's panel, hoping to find some clues.

[Pokémon: Chimchar]

Gender: Male

[Characteristic: Fierce Fire]

[Growth Stage: Elite Level]

Skills: Spark (Mastery), Grab (Mastery), Flame Wheel (Beginner), Trick (Beginner)...

[Affinity: 60 (Ark is very strong, I acknowledge its strength)]

[Mood: -30 (Perhaps I should leave, find a secluded place, and live out my days in solitude)]

Seeing the little fire monkey's current state of mind, Ark felt very sad.

Have to think of a way.

Suddenly, he remembered the system reward he received when he captured the Chimchar.

Dialga's Fragment of Time!

Fangzhou didn't believe in any kind of unlucky constitution; he was more inclined to think that the little fire monkey was cursed, which was why it was so unlucky.

If we look into Chimchar's past, we might find clues and be able to find the right solution!

A cold, cool object appeared in my hand.

Deep blue scales, Dialga's fragments of time.

With a thought, the fragments of time vanished in my hand.

The world before my eyes trembled as if transformed into a black and white negative.

Once the scene stabilized again, Fangzhou felt as if he had entered a movie theater, with the entire world acting as a giant screen.

This is similar to the situation in the movie "Guardians of Water City," where Latios shows Ash what he sees and thinks through images.

Countless images flashed before my eyes, like a dream, moving forward at an extremely fast speed. It was as if the Ark was growing up with the young Flame Monkey.

Finally, one scene caught Ark's attention.

The little Chimchar looked up in admiration at the giant bird Pokémon in the sky.

Its entire body is interwoven with gold and red feathers, topped with a yellow crest, and its back is covered with colorful tail feathers, with iridescent light enveloping the surrounding area.

Ho-Oh!

[As a child, I was fortunate enough to meet Ho-Oh, and my exceptional talent earned Ho-Oh's praise and blessing.]

[Ho-Oh's Blessing: Grants the possibility of wielding the Sacred Flame to revive the dead, and doubles the growth rate of Fire-type moves. However, due to his low strength, receiving such a powerful blessing has instead resulted in an unlucky constitution; perhaps this is the tribulation one must endure to master the Sacred Flame.]

[After reaching the Heavenly King level, the unlucky constitution disappears.]

It turned out to be the case.

Fangzhou couldn't help but sigh. Ho-Oh was a symbol of good fortune, and the people of Edo City specially built a bell tower to worship Ho-Oh, hoping to receive Ho-Oh's blessing.

But what is called auspicious omen is a burden that ordinary people cannot bear.

When one is weak, even auspicious omens can be a curse.

Ark remembered Meloetta's blessing. Fortunately, at that time, Meloetta only helped Ralts evolve and taught it the move Ancient Song, without any other overpowered abilities.

As a top-tier deity with the power to revive the dead, Phoenix King's blessing was far too much.

A well-intentioned blessing, if it exceeds the limits of what can be given, may become poison for the recipient.

In any case, at least we now know how to overcome this unlucky constitution—break through to the Heavenly King level in terms of strength.

When I opened my eyes again, everything before me returned to normal.

Looking at the dejected little fire monkey beside him, Fangzhou felt a surge of anticipation.

Its exceptional talent earned Ho-Oh's praise. Chimchar's talent is probably the highest in the manor right now, and it's already at the elite level even before evolving.

Fangzhou patted the little fire monkey on the shoulder, feeling a little sorry for it.

The poor child was even thinking of secretly leaving the manor to bear all of this alone.

"Little Chimchar, I already know how to solve this."

The little fire monkey looked up in disbelief at the ark.

Have you ever seen a large, rainbow-colored bird? It was very beautiful.

The little fire monkey nodded.

Fangzhou explained the whole story to it.

The little fire monkey suddenly realized, "Oh, so that's how it is!"

Is it only a Heavenly King level being able to completely eliminate the impact?

Chimchar counted on its paws: above Elite level is Gym level, and then comes Elite Four level...

It wagged its tail, feeling incredibly distant; it was only at the elite level.

However, no matter what, at least we know the reason and have a clear goal to strive for!

"Chirp~" The little Flame Monkey asked if it would be better to leave the manor before reaching the Elite Four level.

Fang Zhou shook his head. He had an idea, but he didn't know if it would work.

Within the manor, the effects of negative statuses can be greatly reduced, including the negative effects of Ho-Oh's blessing.

This effect is strongest when combined with Ark's abilities, and should maximize the reduction of the probability of the unlucky constitution flaring up.

"From now on, you should stay with me as much as possible every day, including when you sleep at night. I'll go back and have someone make a small bed for you to sleep in the room with me."

"Chirp!" The little Chimchar nodded happily; this was a treatment only Kirlia received!

"Let's cheer each other on, little Chimchar." Fangzhou patted Chimchar's head; the fluffy texture felt wonderful, just like Big Tail's tail.

"You are part of the manor, and all the Pokémon in the manor are your family. We will never abandon any family member. Even if your bad luck strikes again, we will work together to find a solution and we will never abandon you."

"Chirp!" The little Chimchar's eyes were filled with tears. It nodded vigorously, wiped its face with its hand, and then showed an embarrassed expression.

I suddenly remembered that mushroom, which I had tricked so badly.

Fangzhou smiled and told the little Flame Monkey about the true identity of the Breathy and the previous battle, easing its guilt.

"Chirp chirp chirp chirp!" (So that's how it is! That wretched Breloom!)

The little fire monkey was furious after hearing this. It hadn't expected that the velvet mushroom had been deceiving it all along, and that it was actually planning to infiltrate the manor and cause trouble. It immediately decided to go and settle the score with it.

Fangzhou quickly stopped him.

There's no need for that anymore. Poor Mushroom doesn't even know when it will be able to regain its fighting strength. It's no longer worth paying attention to. Let it be.

……

As night fell, the Breloom on the bed twitched its ears. All around was quiet; it seemed the Pokémon had all gone to rest.

good chance!

This is the perfect opportunity to cause a ruckus in the manor!

It struggled to get up, then fell heavily back onto the bed.

My whole body aches~

It hurts so much!

The thought of that little fire monkey that was the culprit made Mushroom shudder.

Forget it, revenge is a dish best served cold. I'll rest for another day and take action tomorrow night.

It was truly exhausted at that moment...

The next morning, the door to the textile shop was pushed open.

The mushroom opened its sleepy eyes and saw the little fire monkey carrying a medicine bowl walking in from outside, instantly waking it up.

His body hair stood on end.

Don't come any closer!
