This elf world is a bit strange

“Long live understanding.”

"...Yes, I understand."

A feeling of mutual understanding and appreciation, called "every family has its own problems", spread between the two people during their first conversation.

"You two look familiar with each other?"

"Did you call me out for shopping just to meet this guy?"

After a round of verbal confrontation without a clear winner, the two women turned their heads at the same time. They had already noticed the subtle emotional fluctuations between the two people who not only did not come to join in the conversation, but seemed to have become familiar with each other in a short period of time.

The calm and even gentle gaze conveys the signal of an unprecedented huge crisis.

【Danger】

The big blood-red words were engraved on the foreheads of the two poor men at the same time, shining brightly.

It is impossible for such a thing to happen logically in such a situation and with such parties involved.

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

"In other words, you traded your own appearance information with this profiteer for the player information?"

Walking out of the square and coming to the slightly quieter street, Nancy looked at Firion with complicated eyes.

Filio answered as a matter of course: "Yes, after all, it is a regional meeting, we must always pay attention to the opponent, and Gobert does have some strength in this round, right?"

Nazi held her forehead with one hand: "Isn't that because you are too obsessed with three in a row?"

"After all, we have gone through a long period of special training and everyone has made great progress. Moreover, Heart Scale Treasure and Wind Fairy have never shown themselves on such a large platform. Of course, I must find a way to create some opportunities for them."

Firion gently touched the wind fairy that was still clinging to his head and smiled after receiving its crisp response.

"Hmph, you are considerate..." Giving Firion a coquettish look, Nancy backed off as soon as she heard something behind her words and simply changed the subject, "What do you say about the next game? Let your Dragonite show off?"

"Buzz...buzz..."

Just as Firio was about to speak, he felt a tremor in his waist.

As it was difficult for Dragonite to appear in public, it could no longer control its temper and was staggering in the Poké Ball, trying to attract Firion's attention.

"Let Dragonite take the lead in the next match, but the opponent doesn't look weak either. I'll have everyone prepared and make adjustments based on the field, with King Nabo and Sun Eevee leading the charge."

Before he finished speaking, Firion flicked his finger at the Poké Ball, and Dragonite immediately calmed down, shook twice with contentment, and stopped making any more sounds.

Nazi covered her mouth and chuckled, "You and Little Radish Head are completely different. She may not even know who her opponent is before she goes on stage."

"That's Korni, after all."

"You seem quite proud?"

"Of course, the same goes for you."

"Bah! You're quite glorious... and you don't even know how to blush!"

......

......

Nancy, who had never been able to withstand Firio's straight balls, was defeated in just a few words. She could only spit lightly, quicken her pace, and leave him behind with the sound of her high heels clicking.

"I'm going back! Don't tell anyone that we met today!"

Leaving only her back, Naz left as if she was escaping with such brisk steps that one would worry that she might sprain her ankle at any moment.

"Besides, I'm not eating salad tonight! Are you raising rabbits?!"

"……Know it!"

Firion waved his hand with a helpless smile, and after a long pause he responded loudly. It was unknown whether Nancy, who had already run far away, heard him or not.

"She was the one who wanted to eat the salad, but now it's my fault. I'm in a difficult situation... Let's go buy some ingredients. I'll give you a snack tonight to celebrate the victory of the first battle against the wind goblins. The master-level energy cubes that I asked Senior Woolley to buy are also arriving soon. I can eat as much as I want this time. Just leave some for me to use in experiments! There's no rest tomorrow, so I have to get enough rest to prepare for the next round of battles."

"Elu~Elu~!"

The wind fairy's silver bell-like laughter echoed in the streets in the evening.

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

The sun sets and rises, and it's a new day.

After a whole morning of intense and exciting fighting, Aqiao and Bilanqi defeated their opponents easily. After lunch, they went to the stands to rest and wait for the afternoon battle.

Ah Qiao naturally mingled with her two travel companions, while Bilanqi kept muttering to herself. She was "escorted" by two security guards who followed her closely whenever she entered the venue and stayed in a special VIP area. No matter how she explained that her superpowers were under control, even bringing in the owner of Bai Ke Pavilion, Ge Jihua, it was of no use.

The tragedy three years ago has left a lasting psychological shadow on the organizer of the conference, the Mi'ale Arena. If Bilanqi, the instigator, had not been a contestant, she would have been blacklisted.

"You are looking at people through tinted glasses! You are discriminating against people with super powers!"

Miss Bilanqi clenched her fists tightly, feeling indignant as there was no one around her except the security guards within a dozen meters.

She also wanted to join the crowd in the carnival.

Unfortunately not.

......

......

Let’s put aside Brigitte’s experiences and resentments for now. As time goes by, new stories are happening in the waiting area.

"Crack, click, click..."

In an inconspicuous little corner, a tall young man with brown-red hair was eating large bags of food.

A closer look at the packaging reveals that they are all famous snacks from all over Miare. If you don’t queue up early, it would be difficult to buy them quickly.

Looking at Meow Meow wearing boots, Firio frowned slightly, feeling that the person looked familiar. After some thought, he finally remembered the other person's identity from the corner of his vague memory.

According to the normal timeline, it should be the next Saiyou Conference champion in July this year, Tetsuya.

In the previous few days' matches, it seemed that because of the grouping, Filio had never seen him before. Now there were only sixteen left. All the players either stayed in the audience seats or gathered on both sides of the main venue of the tournament which had just started, divided into the red and blue teams and waiting for the start of the game. Only then would he have a chance to see him.

"Hmm? Hello, Contestant Firio, do you want to eat something too? You should eat more during afternoon tea, otherwise you will be tired later. Besides, you guys in Carlos have so many delicious foods! I never get tired of eating galettes!"

Just as he was thinking, Zhe, who was eating heartily, seemed to notice Firio's gaze, raised his head, and handed over a bag of snacks in a friendly manner.

Seeing him eating enthusiastically, Filio also felt a little hungry. He subconsciously took the package and opened it, then searched for snacks in his backpack to return the gift.

However, because the dinner party last night was too joyful, the excited little Dream Fairy used up all her snack reserves with a wave of her hand and stuffed them all into the stomachs of the bottomless appetites of the Tyrannosaurus, Emperor Nabo and the evolved Scaled Dragon.

Both the backpack and the little dream demon's shadow space were empty at this time, without any snacks left.

"Maggie..."

Hiding behind Firion awkwardly, the usually carefree little dream demon felt a little embarrassed.

"Haha! You didn't bring any food? Then eat more of mine." Seeing Firio and Meng Yao's embarrassment, Zhe also waved his hands generously, "It just so happens that I bought too much and couldn't finish it. You guys are helping me. Otherwise, when I bring it back to the hotel at night, it won't taste so good. Good things should be shared and eaten when they taste the best. This is my creed."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, grabbed Firion's arm, and pulled him to sit next to him without saying anything, and said half-jokingly: "You guys in this Miare Conference are really terrifyingly strong. It's worth bragging about eating with the favorite to win the championship. Oh, I almost forgot, let me introduce myself, you don't recognize me yet, right? My name is Tetsuya, from Hoenn Violet, nice to meet you! After eating my snacks, we are friends, right?"

After just a few words, Firion knew why he was able to quickly become friends with Satoshi and his friends in Hoenn.

His hearty smile makes a great first impression, and his outgoing, calm and considerate personality makes it hard for people to dislike him.

Gently unwrapping the snacks, he smiled and stretched out his hand, shaking it with Tetsuya: "Nice to meet you, come and try my cooking skills later? This may sound a bit arrogant, but I am quite good at making desserts."

"Oh? Then I must give it a try." She smiled, her white teeth reflecting light slightly under the sunlight and the lights in the venue.

......

......

After a brief exchange, Firio understood Tetsuya's situation.

Just as he had expected, this cheerful and enthusiastic player with a very Hoenn-like character was in another half of the group. He came to Kalos to compete this time for the purpose of training his Donjia and Iron Palm Warriors.

With many years of travel experience, his goal is not the Miare Conference that is right in front of him, but the Caiyou Conference that will start in a few months.

There is no doubt that after going through so much hardships, the only thing in his eyes is the golden cup that symbolizes the right to challenge the Four Heavenly Kings of Hoenn.

At this moment, although he is still a little short of his potential, he is a powerful Pokémon that possesses several quasi-king Pokémon. Except for the weaker Falcon and Ironclad, he is almost the same as Aqiao and Brilante.

He appeared on the stage before Firion and did not hide his powerful strength. He attacked with Metagross, Lizard King and Cunning Tengu in turn. He lost only one point and easily defeated an equally powerful opponent from White Sandalwood City, and stepped into the quarterfinals with his head held high.

When Zheya returned, he happened to run into Firio who was about to go on stage. He blinked lightly and passed him by.

At the same time, in the blue team's waiting area, Kornie yawned slightly and woke up from her nap. She looked with interest at Maple Leaf, a top student from Kanto who seemed to be heading to the execution ground, with a relaxed smile on her face.

The duel between Phileo and Maple Leaf was the penultimate game of today, and she was the last one to play, which was the grand finale in the true sense.

After enjoying the delicious lunch that Firio had prepared in his spare time, she avoided the annoying old woman with the company of Lucario and took a long and leisurely nap. Now that she had enough rest, she had just enough time to watch Firio's game.

A perfect day that could not be faulted in any way.

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

When the host announced the start of the battle, before the voice faded, a blazing white light burst out from the Poké Ball.

Then, Firion pressed his fingers on the small key stone, and the dreamy colorful light suddenly became like countless ribbons, tightly wrapping around him and Dragonite.

"Boman!——"

The colorful light faded, and the blood-red crescent moon was already floating in the sky, emitting a terrifying aura.

"Me... mega evolution?"

"B…Bana?!"

Looking directly into Mega Dragonite's cold eyes and hearing its deafening roar, Maple Leaf and his Bulbasaur, who were still planning their tactics, froze in their places at the same time.

"Violent Dragon, then use the self-sacrificing charge."

"Boman!"

Before Maple Leaf came out of his shock, Firio had already given the order with certainty.

Carrying destructive surging energy, a blood-red dragon descended from the sky, and its figure slowly enlarged in front of Venusaur's terrified gaze.

The faint fear that came from deep within its genes caused this powerful Pokémon, which had experienced many battles, to feel its energy flow slightly sluggish.

......

......

Not only were Maple Leaf and Venusaur on the field shocked by the evolution of Dragonite, the noisy stands and the suddenly quiet commentary booth also confirmed the shock and surprise of the people at the powerful quasi-god mega form.

Even in Carlos, where mineral deposits are relatively abundant and mega evolution has become a standard feature of powerful trainers, mega stones of quasi-god Pokémon are still rare, and each one is precious beyond imagination.

"...I never thought that in addition to the well-known Mega Mouth, Firion actually has another Dragonite that has successfully completed mega evolution. It's really... really surprising. Gym Leader Citron, what do you think?"

In the commentary booth, the official commentator of Miare TV was silent for a long time and then kicked the ball to Hitron, whose facial expression was a little out of control.

"Gudu..."

Swallowing his saliva silently, Hitler sighed and looked at Bulbasaur who was defeated after a little resistance.

In the face of Dragonite's overwhelming speed and strength advantage, Venusaur's proud tonnage and protection became meaningless. After several rounds of hard attacks, although the skill [Sacrificial Charge], which she had just mastered through the skill disc, was still very crude, it was enough to overwhelm Venusaur.

A powerful Pokémon that was only a step away from becoming a quasi-king was unable to put up any effective resistance.

By the time Hitlon came to his senses, it had already fallen to the ground, stirring up a huge cloud of dust.

"To be honest, I'm surprised. I just found out about it." Listening to the referee announcing the result of the match, Citron shook his head slightly and spoke with difficulty, "If Dragonite still has shortcomings such as speed and defense, then Mega Dragonite... apart from the rage caused by its life transformation, it's hard to say that it has any shortcomings - but Firion's Dragonite, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like the type that is affected by rage. The only thing that can be used against it is probably its attribute restraint."

"As far as I know, Maple Leaf is a top student in the Combat Department of Yuhong University, specializing in poison and grass attributes."

"Then maybe..."

Hitlon hadn't finished speaking, but his meaning was already clear.

In the previous battle, Maple Leaf's ace Pokémon Gengar, Arbok and several other main players have already made their debut. They are quite powerful and can be regarded as the seeded players of Group A. They are slightly better than Gobert, but there is still a fundamental gap when facing Firion.

......

......

"Arbok! Shoot with your junk!"

"Violent Flying Dragon, another Dragon Wave!"

"boom--"

The beams of light in the sky were like a rain of arrows that blocked out the sunlight, completely defeating Arbok's garbage shooting with great force.

Amid a deafening roar, a giant dragon flapped its wings and flew over the field, looking down from high above at the smoke-filled and potholed battlefield, with a look of disdain and pride.

But there was also a faint purple-black scar on its abdomen, which was long, narrow and deep.
