This elf world is a bit strange

After all, the principal and Firio are still in the relationship of master and disciple.

He responded in a deep voice, took the box and manual that the old principal handed to him with some difficulty, turned around and left, quietly closing the office door.

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

At the same time, in the training ground of the Refining Tower.

"Little Cucumber, did I provoke you? Why are you so cruel today?!"

Firio was running away frantically on roller skates, and Korni was chasing him relentlessly, gritting her teeth.

"I'm just too nice to you, that's why you bully me so recklessly! I must fight back today! Lucario, wave missile!"

"Luca!"

Korni gritted her teeth and gave an order. A light blue ball of light condensed and flew at high speed towards Firion.

"boom--"

"I'm telling you, I'm just being polite with you, don't force me!"

Firio dodged sideways in a panic, threatening as he ran away.

"Do you think I was scared? Lucario, keep beating him until he begs for mercy!"

With her high ponytail bouncing up and down, Korni looks murderous and heroic while running, but her youthfulness cannot be concealed. Although she looks a little fierce, she is more cute.

"Little Dream Demon, fight her, Shadow Ball!"

Amid the clanging sounds of clanging, nothing happened in the refining tower today.

On the high platform, Cocobul appeared at some point and did not go down. He just watched the two people chasing and escaping silently with a gratified smile on his face.

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

"Eh? Firio, why do you look so disheveled today?"

The next morning, in Thornton's office, several teachers of the combat class gathered around, looking at Firion, who was in a very bad mental state. They seemed to be asking about his well-being, or as if they were there to watch the fun.

The room was filled with a happy atmosphere.

"It's nothing. I was just playing with the cat at night and got tormented by it." Filio said expressionlessly, "Teacher Thornton, are you looking for me?"

Thornton, who was always serious at work, couldn't help laughing. He patted Filio on the shoulder and asked, "Where did you train yesterday that made people so exhausted? If the effect is so good, I think you can stick with it and maybe win a championship."

Thinking of Korni, who was like a crazy little orange cat, Filio sighed tiredly: "Oh, Mr. Thornton, forget it, I want to live a few more days. What do you want to talk to me about?"

"Oh, yes, that's right. The principal asked you to come here today." Thornton came back to his senses and stopped teasing Firion. Instead, he said more seriously, "Two things. The first is that I hope you can capture two or three more Pokémon as soon as possible. Although the Dream Monsters are very strong, they also need to be replenished. The second is to give you a gift as a support from the school."

As he spoke, Thornton opened the black metal box that had been on the table.

A lilac light lit up, and a faint fragrance filled the air.

"Is this... a poisonous orb? The one that belongs to the principal?"

Firio's tone was a little ambiguous. This unique fragrance made him realize that this was probably the precious collection that Millia saw when she took him to the principal's house to ask questions.

"Oh, you are really good at knowing what's good! That's the one." Thornton gave Firion a meaningful look and handed him the yellowed training manual. "The principal said that the nightmare can also learn to use poison. Let it learn it well and use it well. After it learns it, it must return the rest to him."

"In addition." Seeing that Firio wanted to say something, Thornton's expression became serious, and he took the lead and continued, "The school hopes that you can make a breakthrough in this year's tournament. We don't have any special trainers this year, so you are our trump card. You must be aware of this, understand?"

"Yeah... I understand, Mr. Thornton, I'll get it done."

After looking at Thornton for a moment, Firio nodded solemnly.

"Madge!"

The little dream demon, who had been awakened from his dream by the energy of this mysterious and poisonous gem, also floated into the air and patted his chest, indicating that he would rely on it.

"That's it. Take it back with you. Do you know how to use the orb? Or do you want me to teach you?"

With a satisfied smile, Thornton closed the metal box again and handed it to Firio, saying half-jokingly.

"Don't worry, I know how to use it. As long as you absorb the energy carefully, you won't be poisoned. I will also prepare the antidote."

The box, which could completely lock energy fluctuations and prevent them from escaping, was also made of extraordinary material. Firio only felt a heaviness in his hand and a coolness in his palm. He added a little more strength to hold it and answered seriously.

"Do your best, little Filio. It won't be long before Thornton can't beat you. Then we'll all watch you beat him up!"

"But before you beat him up, you have to get good grades for our school first. You haven't been able to do that for so many years. This time it's up to you."

......

......

The other teachers in the office also looked at Firio with burning eyes, either joking or expressing encouragement.

"Don't worry, teachers. Leave it to me and Little Dream Demon."

Gently touching the little dream demon that sat back on his shoulder, Firion felt that the weight of his hand seemed to have become a little heavier.

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

That night, on the beach outside the Refining Tower.

"Little Dream Demon, you need to experience the transformation of energy, just like when we practiced electromagnetic waves."

"Madge!"

"Yes, that's right. Toxins are a special kind of energy. We need to absorb some of it from the orb and use our bodies to feel it a little, but not too much. We need to grasp the right scale."

"Maggie! Maggie?!"

"It's okay, it's okay. It's always like this during the first training session. Just take the antidote and it will be fine."

"Maggie..."

In the hazy night, Firion and the little dream demon seemed a little confused.

Compared to meditation, poison is simpler and less dangerous, but big things are always accompanied by small things, which always make Firion worry and become confused.

"Okay, Firion, and little Dream Fairy, take a break and don't practice anymore. Little Dream Fairy, here are your favorite puffs~"

In the distance, Korni walked over slowly with a tray and sat down on a small viewing platform not far from the beach.

"Ah, thank you, Kornie. We are a little tired too."

Holding the little dream demon who was a little exhausted, Firio walked towards Korni and thanked her softly.

"Machi~!"

In his arms, the little dream demon struggled to fly out. With the surge of mental power, a cream puff that looked quite good floated into the air and was eaten by it in big mouthfuls, with its mouth covered with white cream.

"Madge! Madge!"

While eating, Xiao Mengyao invited Korni to join her. As a dessert lover, Xiao Mengyao liked to share with Korni.

"I won't eat it. I have to maintain my perfect figure!"

Patting her flat belly, Korni spoke with pride, then reached out and scratched the top of the little dream demon's head.

"I suspect you've already eaten in there, and I have evidence, such as the saliva at the corner of your mouth."

"Where?!"

Firio put down the cup and said something out of the blue, which startled Korni so much that she quickly reached out to wipe it, but she wiped nothing.

"Look, I tricked you into revealing yourself, didn't I?" Firio said with a teasing look on his face, but when he saw that Korni was on the verge of going berserk again, he quickly withdrew and said, "However, your figure is already perfect, you don't need any extra control. My suggestion is to go a little deeper, otherwise the little dream demon will be embarrassed to eat too much."

"Madge?"

"Hehe, it's not that good!" Under the doubtful gaze of the little dream demon, Korni's mood immediately turned from gloomy to sunny. She scratched her head a little embarrassedly, and her smile was sunny and full of youthful vigor and brightness. "Then I'll have another one~"

"That's right, give me more, you're too thin."

Just like he was feeding his own big cat, Firio picked up the cream puffs with a faint smile and stuffed them one by one to Korni, who was eating with a happy face, enjoying the ultimate happiness comparable to raising a cat.

"Maggie? Maggie!"

Seeing that most of his snacks were gone, the dream demon could no longer sit still. He kept shouting, pounced on the small plate and began to protect his food.

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

In this way, a week of peaceful days passed.

On the first weekend after school started, in addition to watching a movie with Antoine and Ina, the little dream demon finally found some tricks according to the old principal's training manual and released the poison completely.

The originally bright poisonous orb was now slightly dimmed.

Meanwhile, in the Refining Tower, empty bottles of antidote potions filled the trash can.

Although there were some bumps along the way, the result was good in the end. With the successful experience of the first time, things went smoothly afterwards.

The energy in the poisonous orb dissipated little by little, and the little dream demon became more and more proficient. It even seemed as if it had developed a blood connection with this skill, as if it was supposed to be this way.

In Firio's eyes, the proficiency level of the skill [Poison] also began to rise layer by layer.

At the same time, although he tried his best to compress the energy in his body, with the stimulation of the poisonous orb and the accumulation of high-level energy blocks, the little guy was already very close to the limit of level 42.

Maybe this is the magic of the principal's poisonous orb...

Thinking of this, Firio felt even more grateful.

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

A few days later, on the morning of March 3, I was in the principal's office.

As the old principal looked at the alien, Firion returned the orb that had lost most of its energy and the manual that had obviously been read countless times.

"You have learned this...?"

The old principal stood up suddenly with a bang on the table, which made Filio even a little worried whether his old waist could bear such a load.

However, the old man obviously didn't care about this. He rushed out from behind the desk, grabbed the little dream demon who was still a little sleepy, and looked at him carefully.

"Geng Ga?!"

From the shadow behind him, a round purple fat man also emerged with an expression of disbelief.

In a hurry, he couldn't even fully control his own momentum, which shocked Firion so much that he took two steps back, and the little dream demon suddenly woke up.

"You really learned it? That's too fast, little Filio."

From the vague aura of the dream demon, the old principal made a rough judgment, but he still couldn't believe his eyes.

Although there is the poisonous orb and Firion is a person with special super powers, such progress, especially the need to guard against poisoning, is indeed beyond his imagination.

He thought it would take at least a month.

Firion nodded, "Yes, Principal, I have learned it. Little Dream Demon, demonstrate it. Just use it on Gengar. It is very powerful and immune."

"Madge!"

After receiving the order, the little dream demon jumped up and aimed at Gengar, who was laughing and sticking out his belly with full of expectation.

The bright purple energy liquefied instantly, but did not spray out. Instead, it turned into three thin lines that crisscrossed and surrounded Gengar, but soon it no longer took shape and turned into liquid.

"Geng Ga?!"

"?!"

The old principal and Gengar fell into self-doubt.

"I'm really sorry, Principal. I haven't studied the property changes you mentioned in the last few pages. But I have taken note of them. Later, I will follow your instructions and conduct in-depth research from the three perspectives of liquefaction subdivision, gas volatilization, and solid puncture."

Felio bowed slightly and said modestly.

"Um, ah... huh?! Wait a minute, kid."

The old principal was about to respond subconsciously to Filio's humble and polite attitude, but then he was startled and grabbed Filio's shoulder.

Immediately afterwards, Gengar, who had already had a tacit understanding with him, picked up the black metal box and put it back into Firion's hands.

"Take it, develop both the liquid and gaseous property changes, and don't give it back to me! Remember to put the solid state aside first, as it's more troublesome."

The old principal looked serious and spoke in a firm tone.

Firio kept refusing: "This... Principal, this is your treasure, how dare I use it all?"

"What kind of treasure is this? Let Meng Yao continue to learn until he has mastered it."

The old principal glared at him, and the Gengar beside him stuck out his tongue, as if he would lick the person if they dared to say anything more.

"Machi~"

The little dream demon made a leap and landed on the old principal's slightly sparse head, and started to act coquettishly.
