This elf world is a bit strange

"You're still coming? This is almost ten servings. Are you really going to eat twenty? Aren't you afraid of getting too full?"

Firio raised his eyebrows, thinking of the physical training at Miare University, and deliberately provoked him.

"Who are you looking down on? Twenty servings can sustain me? I can eat until you close in the afternoon!"

Sure enough, Shashajin was like a pile of dry firewood, which caught fire at once. In an instant, his fighting spirit soared to the sky, and he ate the cake a little faster.

......

......

"I'm sorry I'm late, Firion! But I did promote you!"

It was almost noon when Haiyun, who had just woken up, came in. After eating two pieces of cake and a glass of ice drink, he breathed a sigh of satisfaction and handed the phone to Philio.

Firio half-jokingly said, "Oh, I forgot that our Haiyun is also a big blogger. But it's wrong for you to emphasize appearance. I make a living by my cooking skills!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately attracted the disdainful gaze of Shashajin who was busy eating.

With the help of friends' publicity, customers gradually lined up around the stall.

On the display board next to it, the number of small yellow stars is also increasing.

Even compared with several well-known pastry chefs who have booming business, Filio is not far behind, and is even catching up gradually.

......

......

Just as Filio was busy and his four assistants were running around enthusiastically, a brown-skinned barefoot girl appeared in his sight not far away.

She was already holding six or seven bags of various sizes in her hands, and was happily eating a crepe.

At the same time, the other party's gaze happened to be cast over here.

Gently touching her still flat belly, the girl seemed a little conflicted and walked over with a shaky step.

"I...I want...ah...no, forget it..."

Looking at Shashajin eating with relish, her eyes were struggling. She felt the attraction, but was also worried that consuming too much sweets would lead to calorie out of control. In the end, she gritted her teeth and turned away.

"Are you Miss Caidou from the Suchuan Arena? Since you're out here to have fun, you might as well eat a little more. Sweets can make people feel happy and can also give you motivation to exercise."

Just as she was about to leave, Firio, who had just given a child a special wind fairy-shaped cookie as a gift, spoke softly.

"Eh? You recognize me?"

Caidou turned around in surprise.

"Of course, the most outstanding successor of Galar Karate in a hundred years, the next gym leader of the Suden Arena, Ms. Caidou, right? Would you like a piece of cake? My girlfriend is also a fighter and gym leader, she likes this flavor very much."

Firio smiled and stretched out his hand, palm facing up, leading the way to a bar seat that had just been cleared by Pogaman.

"Boga!"

"Elu!"

Pogamon and the Wind Fairy also came forward and greeted happily.

"Ah...Okay then...Then I'd like to have the dessert you recommended, the soufflé cake, thank you...Yeah, that's it."

After putting the unfinished crepe back into the paper bag, Caidou sat down somewhat awkwardly. After placing the order, she seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Okay, wait a minute, one soufflé cake, Big Mouth Baby!"

With a bright smile, Firio turned around and called out to the big-mouthed kid who was cutting the cake.

"Qido!"

"Doo-doo-doo"

The nimble Big Mouth Baby completed the task in an instant, and several portions of soufflé cakes were neatly stacked on the tray.

"Madge!"

The superpower's glimmer lit up, and each piece of cake landed on a small paper plate.

Although it is not as sophisticated as the Sun Eevee, and can't even directly help Firion to mix raw materials, the superpowers of the Eevee are not weak either. At least it can use telekinesis to do some daily chores without any problem.

"Okay, use it lightly."

After politely handing the paper plate to Caidou, Firio turned around and greeted the guests in the distance.

"You're pretty strong...?"

After looking at the little dream demon hesitantly for a few times, Caidou picked up the knife and fork beside her, cut off a little and put it into her mouth.

"...!"

A happy smile bloomed on his expressionless face.

But it was just a fleeting moment.

Then, Caidou suddenly lowered her head and hid everything embarrassedly.

The knife and fork were waved repeatedly, and a large piece of cake disappeared in the blink of an eye.

......

......

"Boss, another serving please."

"Ms. Caidou, this is already the fourth piece of soufflé cake. Don't you want to try another dessert? Although this kind of cake is indeed softer, it is also quite a large portion."

Looking at Caidou who kept his head buried and whose eating efficiency was no less than that of the gourmet Shashajin, Firio kindly reminded him with a smile.

"...Alright."

Caidou stared at the table without blinking, and her voice remained calm, like a cute little ostrich with its head buried in the sand.

"Okay, one serving of peach cookies and one serving of chocolate mousse cake, little Eevee, please!"

"Buyi~!"

The long tail gently wrapped around Firion's hand, and the little Eevee smiled sweetly. Its super powers were released, intertwined with Firion's super powers, and then slowly dissipated.

......

......

"Okay, Miss Caidou, enjoy your meal... Eh? Isn't this Master Chaklo? You're here for some snacks too, what would you like?"

Just as I gave the cookies and chocolate cake to Caidou and turned my head, another motionless black shadow appeared in front of me.

"...Excuse me, I'll just take a look. I have a rock climbing competition later, so I can't gain too much weight."

Chaklo, who is thin, always dares not eat sweets in order to control his weight. Even in occasions like today, he suppressed his desire and just came to the counter of Philio and stared at it, satisfying his eyes.

"Brother Chaklo! Why are you staring at the counter again? Can I treat you to a meal? Be normal, I'm scared."

Shashajin looked at Chaklo who was sitting next to him with a smile and tears in his eyes. He felt that his fat had suffered a great insult from the big brother in front of him.

You keep saying you want to lose weight, but what am I?!

The little fat boy from Alola shouted in his heart.

But he would never dare to say this even if he was beaten to death. After all, Chaklo, who possessed the king-level Ice Dragon and the Monster Jaw Dragon, had really beaten him in the gym more than eight or ten times.

"Master Chaklo, it should be fine to eat a little. Korni often eats the desserts I make. Just increase your training a little bit!"

Filio was amused by the desire and struggle in Chaklo's eyes. His neck, which was slightly longer than a normal person's, was stretched out, making him look even more amusing.

He couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so he took the initiative to persuade them.

"...Korni? You are...ah, now I remember, you are the champion of this year's tournament."

Chaklo, who was struggling, raised his head when he heard the voice, looked at Firio in confusion, and suddenly recognized his identity.

Although he did not go to Miare during that period, he had some impression of Firion through the exchanges between the gym owners.

"Well...that's what Kornie said...then I'll...have a piece of chocolate mousse cake too!"

With the psychological comfort of "Korni did the same", Chaklo gritted his teeth and growled as if he had made some great decision.

......

......

"Huh...I feel better. You're right. Sweets can really make people feel happy and give them motivation to exercise."

After eating a piece of cake, Chaklo's dark face became a little rosier. Although he had a small appetite, he was already quite satisfied.

"I'll leave my stars to you! No wonder Kornie likes the desserts you make so much, they are really delicious. Compared with the disciples of King Shimi who specialize in desserts, they are not inferior to them in my opinion."

Satisfiedly taking out the little stars he had received and sticking them on the display board, Chaklo suddenly turned around and asked, "Speaking of which, Firio, when you went to Haruka, did you want to challenge the gym?"

Firion nodded and said, "That's right. Please give me your guidance when the time comes."

"Then I'll be ready and waiting for you at any time, Boss Filio. For today's dessert, I will show my true strength to compete with you! Come on with a smile!"

Smiling and waving, Chaklo left quickly. It looked like he was going to go directly out of the street. I guess he was going to find a place to practice more.

"Mr. Chaklo is very self-disciplined, unlike some people. I don't think there will be any suspense about who will win the rock climbing competition this time."

Haiyun was leaning back in his chair with a drink in his hand, glancing at Shashajin with a half-smile.

"I am also very self-disciplined. I eat five bowls of rice every meal, no more, no less. This is the source of nutrition and strength." Shashajin is very proud of his muscular body. "Besides, this time's wild rock climbing is Brother Genard's forte, and Brother Chaklo may not be able to beat him. The result will be clear in two weeks."

"Rock climbing..."

Caidou, who was quietly eating snacks nearby, also raised her head and whispered.

She originally came to Carlos to relax and have fun, and was very interested in such activities, but it seemed a bit troublesome for her to sign up as she was only 16 years old and not yet an adult.

"Why, Miss Caidou, are you interested too? I remember that you fighters seem to have some training in rock climbing, right?"

Firion picked up the wind fairy who was sweating from the scorching sun, buried his head in its little belly, and asked with a smile.

"...Yeah. There will be some. I haven't decided whether to go yet."

Caidou's face was calm, but there were still a few cake crumbs at the corners of her mouth. Beneath her calm appearance, she showed a bit of the innocence of a girl.

“When traveling, you should focus on your own happiness. You can’t always live to achieve one goal after another. That’s too deliberate and will make you unhappy.”

As the wind fairy struggled half in a coquettish and half shy manner, Firio also found a seat, sat down, and picked up a cup of iced coffee to drink.

Several Pokémon gathered around him, eating and drinking, it was very lively.

After working for half a day, the number of customers finally decreased, and he and his partners finally had some free time to sit down and chat.

"Too deliberate...? Well, thank you, boss. This is for you."

Caidou nodded thoughtfully, took out a golden star from her handbag and placed it in Firio's hand.

Another star was added to the densely packed display board.

"Also... I have a question, Boss." After hesitating for a long time, she still wanted to clarify her initial doubt, "The girlfriend you are talking about, is it Miss Korni from the Sala Gym?"

"That's right, so you can rest assured. My cucumber has a lot of experience in weight control, so a little snack is nothing."

"Is that so? That's good. Sugar intake is also essential. When we get to Sala, I'd like to ask her to fight with me."

......

......

As we chatted and laughed, the sun hanging high in the sky slowly set in the west.

The flow of people in Firio's stall and on the entire street went from dense to sparse.

"clang clang"

When the final bell sounded, competition staff in uniform came to the booth.

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

"By the way, you were busy chatting with us this afternoon. Is that okay?"

While waiting for the result, Haiyun asked worriedly.

Shashajin spread his hands indifferently: "There are fewer customers in the afternoon, so it's not a big problem. Besides, he prepared so many raw materials, they are basically used up now, right?"

"What you just ate is the last piece left for the Big Mouth Baby and the Wind Fairy. I suggest you think about how to deal with them."

Firio leaned back in his seat and looked over with ill intent.

"Ok?"
