This elf world is a bit strange

"click"

With a serious look, the psychic power restraint of the Sun Eevee was instantly broken free by "Shadow Firion".

"I don't like you a little bit. Do I have to say it out loud? It's really embarrassing. I guess I have to change the way I address you next time. By the way, I'm not a 'program'. I'm just not a human either."

"Shadow Firio" shook his head helplessly and waved his hand. The world emitting faint white light immediately became colorful.

The grass, the sunshine, the breeze, everything, are moving closer to the real world, except that there is still no life.

"The 'Mirror Kingdom' you mentioned is a mirror of the real world, but we are not here, at least not yet. We are just fragments and things in the cracks. Only your memories and spirits can enrich this world for us, just like this."

"clatter"

With a snap of Shadow Firion's fingers, a jumping Sol Eevee appeared at the end of the sight.

Next up are the Nightmare, the Big Mouth, and the Pogamon.

The rumbling Plomb and the howling hairy trolls...

Pokémon appeared one after another in the distance.

"So, what you need is just the information we show in battle and other actions, right? Until you think it's enough. It seems that this is not the first time for us, and it won't be the last time. From this perspective, trapping us and making things worse is not in your interest, right?"

Seeing through everything, Firio sat leisurely on the ground, calling on his victorious companions to form a circle around him.

At this time, he no longer needed to be wary of attacks from his opponents.

"That's right. Although 'if you don't leave before dark, you will stay forever', I didn't say we won't let you out before dark. This is just your own thinking and understanding."

"Shadow Firion" shrugged and said nonchalantly, with a playful smile in the corner of his eyes.

But soon after, his body gradually became blurred and transparent, and his words were filled with emotion.

"This is the first time I've met someone like you who can really defeat us. I'm obviously stronger than you, both in energy and strength. But I didn't expect that you could make real progress without any external help. It's really enviable. I wish we could be like this."

"One day, it will happen, right? When your world is rich enough and breaks through certain limits, it will become complete and become a true 'Mirror Kingdom'. It will then have the possibility of some kind of growth, rather than being a simple copy."

Looking at the gradually disappearing "Shadow Firio", Firio waved his hand as a farewell.

"Since you helped my friends correct a lot of their minor flaws and practiced a few skills, I won't blame you for killing me so many times. After all, I probably opened the door to your world by accident. So we're even? I wish you good luck in the future."

"You are being a bit hypocritical, which makes me very upset. However, next time it will be our turn to bully others with such words. I am happy just thinking about it..."

The voice became vague and the body gradually disappeared, until finally it was completely silent.

"click"

"click"

“Kaala…”

The perfect world began to show cracks in front of Firion's eyes, like cracks in glass.

"Click"

But when the cracks spread across the entire field of vision, everything in front of me shattered in an instant, and everything turned pitch black.

But in just a moment, the scenery in the mirror cave, which still seemed dim under the effect of the light moss, appeared in front of Firion.

Also appearing are Blanca and Alex, who are still in shock.

Unlike Firio who knew everything, the two of them were still struggling to find a way out of the fight, and they only had a glimpse of the way.

Until they returned to reality at the last moment, they still couldn't figure out what was going on.

They were completely confused and only knew that they were rescued, but they didn't know how it happened, let alone who saved them.

In this regard, Firio, who did not want to cause trouble, did not point it out. He just stood up silently, comforted the two of them, and walked towards the place where he had just fought with Blanca, where the mirror wall was.

On the mirror wall that had returned to its original state, a blurry figure flashed by, as if smiling at Firion.

"...The world is so big, there are so many strange things."

While muttering to himself, Filio lowered his head and looked at his watch. Only two or three hours had passed.

"Madge!"

The little dream demon came forward and gently pulled Firion's earlobe to stop him from thinking too much.

No matter what happens, it will always be by Firion's side.

----------------

"Do you know what's going on, Firion?"

Behind Firio, Blanca and Alex also came over and asked in a deep voice.

"The world in the mirror is also very interesting. It is very strange to see ourselves who are exactly the same as us. Although it feels bad to die, I think it is quite rewarding. What about you? Maybe we can train together for a while and absorb what we experienced today."

Instead of answering the question, Firion turned around, looked at the two of them with a smile, and made his suggestion.

In the mirror world behind him, a faint light slowly emerged.

It was as if some creative upheaval was secretly taking place within it.

Chapter 107: Mountain Road Journey (1/2)

"You're leaving so early. We were thinking of training with you for a while longer. These few days are truly the most exciting and fulfilling days I've had in Mirror Cave!"

"It can't be helped. Filio will be attending the Miare Conference next year, and he will also have to tour the eight major gyms. He doesn't have much time."

In the early morning of July 7, at the southwest entrance of Mirror Cave, Alex and Blanca saw off Firio who was about to leave.

"May!"

Little Diamond came skipping over, put his cheek against Little Dream Demon, and said goodbye affectionately.

Its long lifespan has allowed it to experience countless such separations, and it has long since let go.

"I'm very happy to be able to spend time with you and train with you these days! Anyway, I have contact information, so you can contact me anytime if you have any questions. Especially Alex, just relax, I will definitely come to play with you when I arrive in Miare."

After waving goodbye to the two people he had been with for many days, Firio packed his backpack and clothes, turned around and walked out of the cave, returning to the bright sunshine.

"Hiss... I'm still a little uncomfortable. Is the sun so bright this early in the morning?"

It's a nice day today too.

Behind the good weather is a good sign for returning to a peaceful travel life!

After letting go of his hands that were blocking his eyes and adjusting to the not-too-bright sunlight in the early morning, Firion stretched himself, picked up the big-mouthed kid who was reluctant to join him, and walked happily to the southern section of Route 11.

-----------------

Route 11 is divided into three parts.

The northern starting point is south of the city of Sala, which is the road that Firio took when he entered the Mirror Cave.

The middle section spans the mountainous area between Sala and Shixiang.

The southern section goes down the mountain and leads directly to the end point, Shixiang Town.

After coming out of the Mirror Cave, Firion walked a short distance to the southern section of Route 11.

However, although it is called a road, it is not actually a highway in the traditional sense, but a very rugged and winding mountain road. It does not completely overlap with the road across the mountain, and the two will not merge into one until you go down the mountain.

Countless crystal pillars rise from the ground. Their material is not much different from the mirror walls in the mirror cave. They are not very hard, but have a smooth surface and sparkle in the sun. Many people living nearby like to use these crystal pillars as raw materials to polish some simple jewelry or home decorations.

Going down from the mountainside, although the land is not fertile, the wild flowers all over the mountain still make the mountain road quite pleasant and completely fill the sight of Filio and his party.

“Qido…!”

The beautiful big-mouthed baby leaned in Firio's arms and pointed into the distance.

Following the fingertips of the big-mouthed baby, Firio looked over and saw several gorgeous light pink flowers.

After tapping the big-mouthed baby's forehead and putting her on his shoulder to sit, Firio jumped off the road and ran towards the flowers.

......

......

"Qido~!"

One is dotted on the top of the head, and the other is gently hanging on the top of the big jaw. The simple and elegant wild flowers complement the bright and lovely big-mouthed baby. They neither overshadow the main feature of the baby, but also have a good supporting effect.

Looking at the small mirror that Pogaman held up for it, Big Mouth Baby put his hands together in front of his chest, smiled gently, and his beautiful big eyes sparkled.

"Machi~"

"Buyi~"

The little Dream Fairy and the Sun Eevee, who also wore a small flower, stood on the left and right, praising the big mouth baby affectionately. The little guy felt a little embarrassed when he heard it. He jumped lightly and hid in Firion's arms, and started to act coquettishly for the first time in a long time.

"Very beautiful flowers, indeed very suitable for our Kog'Maw, Eevee and Sucker Punch. However, no matter how beautiful the flowers are, they can only fully display their charm when they are on you."

Gently stroking the big mouth baby's back and feeling his friend's happiness, Firion himself felt better.

The fragrance of flowers permeates the summer breeze, lingering around everyone.

In the quiet mountains, you can only occasionally see one or two nearby residents or passing travelers. They greet each other from a distance and then go on their way.

In the sky, Mukker and the Mukbirds are practicing flying under the leadership of a Mukhawk. For flying Pokémon in the wild, flying is the most important ability, whether for survival or for finding food, and they always strive to fly faster and more steadily.

In the grass beside the road, you can occasionally see a few Nidoran and Nidorang running together. Not far away are their parents and even ancestors, the powerful Nidoking and Nidoqueen.

On a ridge farther away, a striking ghost and a throwing ghost were fighting. It looked exciting and intense, but in fact it was just a daily sparring match. Their strength was not that strong, but the scene was quite lively.

"Swish"

Suddenly, a figure flew across the air.

"bang"

Then she jumped off the warrior eagle and landed steadily on the ground.

"Hello, I'm Sky Trainer, my name is Misora, are you a Traveler? Your roller skates look impressive! Do you want to have a competition? The tester shows that your Pokémon are very strong!"

The girl with beautiful wavy golden hair extended her hand generously and issued an invitation to fight.

The elegant Colorful Butterfly and the majestic Warrior Eagle stood on the left and right. Compared with many trainers in the cave, this sky trainer who had left a little trace in Firio's memory was much stronger.

"Of course, my companions will be happy to compete with a strong opponent. I am Firion, a traveler."

Gently putting down the big-mouthed baby who was still acting coquettishly, Firio stretched out his right hand and held hands with the other party.

......

......

"Qido~!"

The big-mouthed kid was holding a few energy cubes and eating them in big mouthfuls. There were only a few tiny scratches on his body. Not far away, a colorful butterfly with elegant patterns was lying on the ground.

"Machi~Machi!"

The little dream demon lay on top of Firion's head, pointing fingers at the warrior eagle who had just said he would give in to him.

Right in front of the little guy, the warrior eagle, whose whole body was numb from the 100,000 volts of electricity, was in great pain.

"Huh! No, no, I still can't beat him!"

Picking up a small bottle of sports drink and drinking it down without any regard for manners, the sky trainer named Misora ​​patted Firio's arm carelessly, as if he was very familiar with him.

She doesn't look like that arrogant young lady at all.

"As expected, Huayi-chan and our new school girl named Dorothea are right. You are really a very powerful trainer! No, you are even more powerful than they said."

Putting down the drink, Misora ​​sighed.

"Dolotia, has she already gone to the Sky Trainer School? I thought it would be a little later."

After hearing the familiar names and the names that were both familiar and unfamiliar, Firio figured out most of the details and asked with a smile.

He was quite concerned about this classmate who participated in the tournament like himself.

"On the morning of the 7th, she was the first one to arrive, and I personally brought her to school. She heard that I was going back to Shixiang to do something, and she specifically asked me to say hello to you on her behalf if I saw you while traveling~"

While thinking, Misora ​​took out her own medicine and sprayed it on the Colorful Butterfly and the Warrior Eagle.

It was just an ordinary sparring battle, and the injuries of the two Pokémon were not serious. They can recover to a large extent after a short rest.

"Okay, now that I've greeted you and said hello, I'm off now! I wish you a pleasant journey. Next time we meet, I'll let you see my army of colorful butterflies~!"

A red light flashed, and the two injured Pokémon were taken back into the Poké Ball. Misora ​​jumped up and flew away on another flying Pokémon, leaving only the cheerful voice floating in the wind.

Comes and goes like the wind.
