Aspiring to become a Pokémon trainer

Privileges are privileges, and personal relationships are personal relationships. They can be used to shorten procedures, but they cannot be abused in private matters.

"Sylveon, Magearna..."

She called out the names of the little creatures one by one. Upon hearing the girl's voice, both the pink and white little beasts and the mechanical dolls raised their little faces and looked at the girl's beautiful eyelashes.

"Let me take a good look at these Pokémon."

By getting close to the screen and looking through the projection, the old man carefully examined the spirits surrounding Nanyin.

"Ah."

Make room for Eevee and Magearna to come to his side. As these adorable little beasts blinked their eyelids and peered curiously, Fu Ye nodded frequently, his interest growing.

"More than half a year has passed. Thinking back to when we first met, Eevee was quite thin and weak, and even his legs were a little weak. Now, not only is his fur shiny, but his overall demeanor has also undergone a tremendous change."

If Eevee was originally just a disheveled Cinderella, it has now become a princess who is both gentle and dashing, sweet yet fierce.

"With its smooth curves and explosive power, Nan Yin, you might even surpass me in your nurturing skills."

The student surpasses the teacher, and even though he felt a pang of sadness at his own aging, Master Fu was genuinely pleased with his apprentice's growth.

"You flatter me, Master. I still have a lot to learn."

The reading of books, the casting of dolls, and the reshaping of masks—these experiences broadened the girl's knowledge and expanded her horizons.

It can be said that even without systematic learning, her practical skills and general knowledge of real-world situations far surpass those of most students from academies.

"Haha, with this apprentice's heart, you can keep improving on this path and go further and further."

Even if one is childless in old age, having such a cheerful and intelligent apprentice is more blissful than anything else.

There was nothing more to say after that, only casual conversation and concern for each other's well-being. As dusk approached, the phone call finally came to an end.

The girl's heart was pounding with excitement, while the little animals continued their playful antics.

"Bang!"

Fluttering its wing membranes, fulfilling its duty as a predecessor, the Scorpion King is struggling to lift the Armored Dragon, bringing it into the air and gradually mastering the feel of flight.

Looking up at the sky and pursuing flight is the instinct of the fledgling dragon. As the elder, guiding the younger is a responsibility that the scorpion beast willingly shoulders. The help they provide day and night has become a tacit understanding between the two children.

Looking around at the peaceful and serene scene, Nan Yin did not say anything to break the silence. She simply rested her head on her right arm, looked at the little beast, and let the soft flesh of its cheeks create a slight indentation.

"Compared to the past, this kind of life couldn't be better."

His features softened, and with a few soft thuds of earth being covered, several bright diamonds emerged from the ground, timidly offering a stone slab with inscriptions.

Those were tiny diamonds from the Kingdom of Mining and Diamonds, while the words that flowed into her eyes were the princess's deep longing.

[Seeing this letter is like seeing you in person, Nan Yin, I really miss you.]

[And that day isn't too far off.]

Such concise and succinct language conveys profound emotions.

Chapter 130 Becoming a Champion? First Encounter with Team Rocket

The next morning, at exactly eight o'clock, accompanied by a soft sound from the entrance hall, a pleasant scene came into view.

Deep blue chiffon, sleeveless blouse, following the shape of her beautiful bust, white hair draped over her shoulders, the thin clothing also undulating like the mountains.

The lower body is also light and comfortable, with a knee-length gauze skirt that reveals the whiteness of the calves, giving people room for imagination.

Although it wasn't the first time she'd seen her friend dressed casually, Korni couldn't help but admire the former's outstanding style and natural flair.

With her waist bent in a delicate arc, Nan Yin lowered her fingertips, lifted the zipper of her mid-calf boots, and then lightly stomped twice to completely fit the gap at the edge of the shoe.

"Are you ready?"

Once everything was ready, she turned back to look at the blonde girl and asked her this question.

As the phrase implies, their trip was to participate in this grand competition.

"Uh-huh!"

Nodding hastily, Korni echoed her sentiments repeatedly, afraid that the other party would discover her little scheme.

After all, Nan Yin's posture of bending over and tilting her head was too graceful. Although she was bending over, her legs were straight, and only her round buttocks and slender figure filled the view.

It even twitched in front of its own eyes, accompanied by a small, quick movement of lifting its fingers and stomping its feet.

For some reason, Korni felt a dryness in her throat.

"what happened?"

However, the more one tries to conceal it, the easier it is for the girl to notice something amiss.

As she moved closer, Nan Yin leaned forward, letting her delicate features come close to Ke Erni's face.

They were so close that even the finest downy hairs on their faces were visible, but thankfully, the former looked away after only a moment.

Although it was somewhat unclear, Nan Yin had a slight idea of ​​what was going on. Her friend's gaze had been a little uneasy, as if a cat had set its sights on a fur ball.

Even after she stood up, a hint of regret appeared in her eyes.

It seems a bit dangerous.

Well, girls can be shy with each other too, so leaving some space is good for everyone. Anyway, Nanyin has its own limits.

Not caring much, she picked up her handbag and beckoned the children out of the house, where they wandered into the vast streets and alleys.

"Wait, wait for me!"

Only after the girl's figure disappeared into the distance did Korni break free from the lingering feeling and hurriedly chase after her.

"Ah."

Hearing the hurried breathing, Nan Yin smiled faintly and slowed her pace accordingly.

Clearly, she was waiting for her friend, but didn't want the friend to notice.

Under this silent understanding, the morning light grew brighter and brighter until it shone on the earth, leaving behind a clear and bright sky.

It was a bright and sunny day.

......

On autumn mornings and afternoons, there is still a thin mist, and a cool breeze is always present.

The scenery outside the window flashed by, the whistling breeze rustled the branches, echoing the station's familiar broadcast.

[Passengers, welcome aboard this train. Please refrain from smoking, and keep an eye on children and the elderly. Also, please do not release large Pokémon...]

Listening to the broadcast over and over again, the boy wearing a light green headscarf leaned back on his arm, seemingly uninterested in the tall buildings along the way.

"Ruby."

A girl was calling to me, and I could feel her breath on my ear.

"Do you find it boring?"

“Indeed, although Miare City is known as the City of Light, at its core it is just a large cluster of castles, not much different from Glass City. In comparison, Safia, you don’t seem to feel anything.”

Upon hearing her lover's statement, the chestnut-haired girl smiled brightly and spoke frankly without any reservations.

"Actually, the scenery isn't important. Carlos, a place I've never been before, and this trip together, is a rare opportunity for us to travel together after all the things we've been through. I'm already very happy to be with you, Ruby."

"Hey! Safia, this is a public place!"

Panicked, Ruby's ears turned bright red. He quickly reached out to cover Ruby's lips, but seeing the smiling face, he lowered his head and gave up.

"Then, let's keep it down."

"Okay, but Ruby, you said you'd participate in this Grand Contest, have you made any specific preparations?"

Initially uninterested, the boy became focused upon hearing Safia's question and began to recount the events in great detail.

"Of course, after all, my master will be participating as a judge this time, and if I don't perform well, I'll definitely get a lot of criticism from him. Besides, exchanging and learning from outstanding breeders around the world is also a way to accumulate experience."

“Mr. Mikkelsen wouldn’t be blaming you on purpose. It’s just that you, Ruby, found the life of training too boring, so you thought of coming to the tournament to relax for a while.”

Knowing that her lover referred to the champion, Safia could understand his thoughts. After dealing with the atrocities committed by Team Lava and Team Ocean, their lives did indeed return to a peaceful routine.

"Hey, Safia, you really understand me. But let's not be so blunt about this. I have my pride too."

He had intended to change the subject with a joke, but a glance from her left Ruby momentarily stunned.

"...So beautiful, not just in appearance, but also in spirit and energy, far surpassing ordinary beings."

He murmured these words with a hint of disbelief, and this change in expression undoubtedly caught Safia's eye. Following her lover's gaze, she caught sight of a young girl with flowing white hair and delicate features.

Her clothing is simple and natural, yet she possesses a beautiful temperament. She has a lovely face and figure, yet she exudes a sense of tranquility from the bottom of her heart.

Involuntarily comparing it to her own unfashionable attire, a surge of anger rose within her, which was difficult to extinguish.

"You bastard, you get lustful just because you see a pretty girl!"

Grabbing the boy's earlobe and twisting it slightly, a series of screams filled the entire cabin in an instant.

"Ouch, ouch! Safia, I wasn't talking about that girl, you, look at Sylveon next to her!"

Distracted like this, Safia realized she had misunderstood Ruby, but her anger had not subsided, and it was difficult for her to apologize at this moment.

"Sylveon?"

"Yes, look at that little guy's glossy fur and perfectly proportioned body; he's absolutely adorable!"

Ruby's accumulated experience and excellent vision as a breeder prompted him to utter a hymn of praise.

Upon closer inspection and careful examination, the girl had to admit that what her lover said was not untrue.

Although she didn't pursue a career as a breeder like Ruby, she still possessed basic observation skills. That Sylveon not only had an outstanding appearance, but its strength was probably not to be underestimated.

The commotion nearby was so loud that even though Nan Yin wanted to close her eyes and rest, she still noticed the gazes of the young man and woman.

Recalling the images from her memory and comparing them to the current scene, she quickly recognized the two individuals.

—Ruby, the protagonist of the Fengyuan Special Episode.

Surprised, she had to admit that she had only planned to take the subway to the Union Center, but unexpectedly ran into these two people during the half-minute journey.

There was no intention to take the initiative to greet them. If the other party was also involved in this grand competition, then their confrontation would happen soon, and there was no need to deliberately make friends.

She doesn't have any biases towards the characters in the drama. Nan Yin has always been pragmatic and only uses her own eyes and ears to distinguish the facts and judge right from wrong.

"Buy~"

No longer focusing her gaze, she merely nodded slightly to indicate her enjoyment before lowering her neck and shoulders to groom the small animal's fur as before.

Having received such a reply, Ruby understood and kept quiet, refraining from further doubt.

Having experienced so many incidents, big and small, how could he not have this kind of insight?

"I really look forward to Master performing on stage at the opening ceremony of the Grand Contest. I'm sure Milotic will be the one performing."

"Huh?" Safia's dark eyelashes fluttered slightly, a hint of confusion in her eyes. "Why do the judges also have to participate in the performance?"

"It wasn't a requirement of the conference; it was Teacher Mikoli who volunteered to perform, as a way to show everyone the direction of coordinators and nurturers."

Recalling his master's revealing everyday clothes and daring outfits, even Ruby could only rack his brains to come up with a reasonably plausible explanation.

"I see."

The casual conversation during the drive came to an end, and with the arrival of a gentle autumn breeze, everyone packed their belongings and departed, enjoying the cool air.

[Thank you all for traveling from afar to Miare to witness this grand event with me. I am your reporter for this event, and I look forward to the exciting opening ceremony!]

As you approach, the stirring sound precedes the building's outline and fades into people's ears.

Colorful flags fluttered, cannons roared, and high in the clouds, a Whale King-shaped airship projected images of many famous actors.

Mikoli, Karuni, Melissa...

Not only formal stalls, but even street vendors spontaneously gather on this land, seizing every available business opportunity.

"Ice cream cones, star-shaped cream puffs, and all kinds of plush toys—don't miss out, everyone!"

"There's the sweet-tasting Tanabata Bluebird, and the refreshing Tundra Panda~"

"Eating it is also good for your skin! Come and check it out!"

As the streetlights came on one by one, the ice cream stand with its huge cat sign stood out among the row of stalls. The staff seemed to be in a hurry, bustling around.

"Here's your manberry ice cream."

"A very reasonable price of 20 yuan. Welcome to visit again!"
