This elf world is a bit strange

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

"Filio! You're so cute to me!"

As soon as I walked out of the cave, a nimble fat man "flew" towards me from a distance. At a quick glance, I saw his slightly round face right in front of me, and every hair and every pore was filled with excitement.

Filio even doubted whether his senior, McKen, still wanted to hug him and kiss him.

Tsk...horrible.

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and Firion took a half step back, creating some distance, before greeting with a smile: "Senior, nice to see you again! You came really quickly."

"I received the report yesterday, so of course I had to bring everyone here to investigate immediately. So, the one who is close to the water gets the moon first. After I got the news from you, of course I came here directly!"

McCann patted his chest proudly to show off his wisdom, and the plastic packaging made a "swish" sound, which showed that he had not hidden anything in his clothes.

"Oh yeah, speaking of this, I just remembered that there was something special that interfered with our perception, so why didn't I have any problems along the way?"

"I always feel like you're a little different now than when we first met..." Facing the self-indulgent Mikan, Filio shook his head helplessly and pointed to the distance, "It's been resolved. An unknown device was turned off in a cave, and then they all turned to ashes and disappeared. Before I and everyone else showed up, they had no memory of that time except me. Moreover, it seems like half a day has passed directly, from yesterday afternoon to this morning."

Except for hiding the matter about Priscilla, Filho told his whole experience in detail.

Macon didn't doubt anything. As long as the problem could be solved, he didn't care. He patted Firion's shoulder happily and smiled: "You are really my lucky star, little brother. That will save me a lot of trouble! Just investigate the geological activities and repair the damaged areas~! It's comfortable!"

As he spoke, he rummaged in his pockets and generously took out two plastic bags filled with homemade cookies and stuffed them into Filio's hands.

Sniffing the sweet aroma coming through the gap in the bag, Firio grinned: "Your pocket is like a small arsenal. But well, your craftsmanship is good."

"Small? I don't agree with that!" Macken raised his eyebrows, very dissatisfied, grabbed Firio's arm and walked towards the cave, "I must show you what a sufficient inventory means!"

"Bu…Buyi?"

The Sun Ibrahimovic, who was unable to get a word in from beginning to end, stared blankly at the two people arm in arm. He couldn't match the giggling, slightly plump middle-aged man in front of him with the one from a few days ago.

After a long pause, it finally figured it out.

This is obviously a request for help!

"Buy!"

With his cheeks puffed up slightly, the little Eevee hurried forward.

......

......

"Ah... my wallet hurts, and I feel pain too... but at the same time I am filled with a strange kind of happiness..."

In a corner of the cave, Mikan was holding a Gyarados and Charizard X's Mega Stone in each hand. He was in pain and happy after losing nearly half of his savings.

Even for a quasi-elite trainer with outstanding strength or the head of the alliance branch in a major town, it is not easy to come up with a large sum of money in a short period of time.

Earning more means spending more, which is the norm for excellent trainers.

For the sake of these two priceless evolution stones, he gritted his teeth and took out half of his savings over the years. After several rounds of fundraising and exchanges within the branch, he finally got two pieces of top-grade non-melting ice and three high-quality ice stones. When combined with his own treasured cold rock, he finally met the needs of the exchange.

But when he thought that his Gyarados was about to break through the bottleneck that had been restricting him for a long time and reach a higher level, he felt very happy.

"It's okay. You can use this Charizard Mega Stone to give Mr. Kurokizuchi a good beating later, right?"

Looking at the Ice and Rock Monsters who were cheering for getting the precious resources, and then at McKen who was holding the mega stone and wanted to kiss it, Firion felt like he was coaxing a child, but it was inexplicably interesting.

For many people, happiness doesn’t require any specific reason. Just let the mood take its course.

"Ahaha, yes, I can just give that guy with muscles in his head a run for his money. He will be able to find a rich woman sooner or later anyway, so it doesn't matter whether he has money in his pocket or not!"

Nodding in agreement, McKen gave Filio a look of approval as if he were a fellow traveler, and the pain in his heart was immediately alleviated by a lot.

Although Filio felt that given the temperament of Mr. Black Iron Pillar (crossed out) Thornton, there was a high probability that he would use a 50% discount on the cost price to rob people.

Especially after knowing the friendship between these two.

But he wisely chose to keep silent, agreeing with his happy senior, admiring the "youthful spirit" of someone who wrote down the identity of a branch director in disguise - it was just a little bit incongruous, but not a big problem.

After the celebration, McCann, who was clamoring to show off his "arsenal", also joined the party. Like a magician, he took out bags of snacks, which drew cheers.

Then, the snacks disappeared at a speed beyond his imagination.

Even the Sun Ibrahimovic, who had already eaten his fill, stepped forward to grab a few pieces, chewed them ravenously in front of McKen, and swallowed them up as if to show off.

Mikan was dumbfounded. "My...snack?"

Firio deadpanned, "No, there are no more snacks for you."

"Do not!--"

A shrill wail sounded from the cave, reaching far away.

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

"This is the first time I've been asked to eat for free and got counter-eaten... You little guys, and the one who snatched the food, are really good."

After eating and drinking, they walked out of the cave. McKen was still upset that all the snacks were finished while he only ate one or two bites.

It was even more painful than being taught a lesson by Thornton in the last battle.

"Senior, you are really..." Firio didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Can you go back to the way you were a few days ago? The image of you in my mind is about to be shattered."

Macken said firmly: "No! That's what the old man asked. I don't like hypocrisy. It's so tiring. Don't you think you're doing fine like this?"

"headmaster?"

“Ah…” McCann, realizing that he had let the cat out of the bag, felt his legs go weak and he nearly fell. He smiled awkwardly and quickened his pace, “Ahaha, that’s not true! Well, I still have to lead the team to investigate, so I’ll leave first!”

After saying that, without waiting for Filio to ask any more questions, he started to run away. He was so agile that he didn't look like a fat man at all, and was as agile as Shashajin.

"Dr. Bratano has already told me that he will come to inspect the site in a few days! His laboratory wants to study these mega stones and mineral veins of yours!"

Last but not least, the words that Dr. Bratano repeatedly urged me to convey in person were just blown away by the wind.

I wonder what he would feel if he knew about this, as he is far away in Yingxue.

But this is definitely not what Firio needs to worry about, he has other important things to do.

For example...

"Cure!"

With the rumbling sound of heavy footsteps, the old ice monster, who was obviously full, walked out of the nest and came behind Firion.

Even without looking back, Firion could feel its joyful and eager gaze.

It must be very happy at this moment.

By relying on the transaction of mutual benefit and "turning waste into treasure", the problem that has troubled it for a long time has been solved. Several young ice treasures and ice rock monsters have obtained suitable high-quality resources, and the increase in strength is just around the corner.

This ethnic group, which had been facing some difficulties due to its growth in size and reduction in environmental resources, has regained the motivation to develop.

"Cure..."

The old ice monster became happier and happier when he saw Firion's back, and he even liked the ice baby who quietly slipped to his side even more.

This little fellow, who still hadn't figured out what had happened or what it meant, was just happily hanging on a piece of unmelting ice, humming a meaningless melody, wandering around, and going wherever there was fun.

But such a simple-minded little guy accidentally brought about an important friendship and immeasurable and irreplaceable help without even realizing it.

Looking at the Ice Baby who came close to Firion and played with the dream demon that was staggering over, the Ice Rock Monster began to think.

We always have to do something, not a transaction or an exchange, but a mutual transmission of goodwill.

Bingbao's talent is irreplaceable, and he has no intention of leaving home. If that's the case...

Looking around, I saw a big-mouthed kid with a mega stone pendant walking towards me with his glittering evolution stone swaying up and down, which was quite stunning.

Not far behind, the son, who had eaten and drunk his fill, was sleeping at the entrance of the cave, his huge body rising and falling with his even breathing.

The wise old man's eyes lit up.

There isn't much that Pokémon can do, but it's direct and effective.

In this land of ice and snow, no tribe or Pokémon dares to say that they are stronger than it and its family.

The experience driven by this powerful force is the best gift it can give to the person in front of it and his companions.

......

......

"Cure!"

The deafening roar almost shook off the ice that had frozen on the rock wall, and the majestic aura of the overlord displayed its tremendous power.

The burning gaze was tinged with gunpowder as the old overlord responded to the challenge that the young newcomer had put forward since they first met.

Although it is not as blessed as the genuine "natural aura" of the Alola region, as a regional overlord who owns a vast territory, he also has a majesty that cannot be ignored.

At least it is enough in front of this younger generation who only has a rudimentary form and is far from touching the essence of the overlord's aura.

"Madge?"

The dream demon, who was having fun, turned around in confusion and their eyes met.

The burning desire to fight was transmitted between hearts without any dialogue.

"Madge!"

Although the brave challenger is young, he never knows what fear is.

There is no time to hesitate, because the gears of fate have already started turning.

"Madge!"

"Cure!"

The momentum that almost condensed into a entity collided and impacted in the air, making the fight difficult to separate.

The harsh and eerie aura like a polar ice cave came first and in a moment, it pushed back the challenger who was as deep as a ghost cave.

Although this overlord Pokémon is old, it is still powerful enough not to be underestimated.

But this is exactly the purpose of the dream demon.

The seed planted by Xerneas has begun to sprout and needs watering.

On an empty platform far away from the crowds and Pokémon habitats, beside a steaming hot spring, a fierce battle between two opponents of unequal strength quietly begins.

The overlord Pokémon, who is not good at speaking, conveys his own feelings and experiences in the most direct way, depicting the purest name of "overlord".

"boom--"

Water splashed, and the steaming healing hot spring surged with the shock of the explosion, and the hazy white mist gradually spread.

The huge iceberg is fighting fiercely with a tiny "dust".

The exciting aura spreads far away, bringing deep fear to all potential "troublemakers" who dare to approach.

......

......

Outside the cave not long ago, the colliding glances conveyed an invitation to fight.

Filio was surprised by the sudden enthusiasm of this "old and young" couple.

But on second thought, the purpose of coming to the frozen cave has been accomplished, so there is no need to leave in a hurry.

The old Ice Monster in front of him was extremely powerful and had a domineering aura that was extremely rare in normal times. Although it was not as good as Alola, it was indeed rare. Now that he took the initiative to invite him to train, there was no reason to refuse, so he readily agreed.

But just as they were about to pack up and leave, the old ice and rock monster persuaded Firion to stop, and pointed his strong forelimbs as strong as jade pillars at his confused son and the big-mouthed baby who was digesting his big meal.

So, there was the previous scene.

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

"Kachi! Ka~chi~!"

In the open space outside the cave, the jumping Ice Pokémon were shouting loudly, and at the same time cheering for the two Pokémon standing opposite each other in front of them.

The two who are about to start a battle are its most doting father and its favorite handsome big-mouthed baby.

The little guy didn't know which side to stand on, so he just chose to stand on both sides.

"Cure..."

The Ice Rock Monster was already feeling a little depressed after being woken up just after falling asleep. He felt even more upset when he saw his daughter, who had been held in his palm for a long time, had her elbows twisted outward.
