Pokémon: The Sims

The fate of the nation weighed heavily on him, far more so than he had initially imagined.

His concerns extended far beyond war and internal affairs.

The responsibility and burden on his shoulders made it difficult for him to even breathe.

Feeling upset, Rami wanted to go for a walk.

As he walked the streets of Eindook, seeing the sorrow and worry on the faces of the people, Rami couldn't help but lower his head in shame.

"Your Majesty~"

Just then, a middle-aged woman's voice came from behind Rami. She caught up and stood beside Rami, a forced smile on her face.

“I am Pete’s mother. Pete has been well taken care of by you all these years.”

Upon hearing that name, Rami lowered his head again, which he had just raised.

He turned his head slightly away, not daring to look at the woman.

Pete.

That was the boy who had been by his side for five years. He was about the same age as him and was the only son in his family.

There were only two people in their family, Pete and his mother.

To spare her mother from such hardship, Pete resolutely chose to join the army and stay by her side.

Rami trusted him very much.

The task of guarding the defensive line was handed over to the young Pete.

But just yesterday

The defensive line had been destroyed, and countless soldiers had sacrificed their lives. Rami didn't even have the courage to check among the countless corpses to see if Pete was there.

Because Rami really didn't dare.

He was terrified to see Pete lying somewhere on the battlefield.

“I received a letter from Pete saying that you greatly admire him and that you would do anything for him.”

"Sigh, this child ran off to join the army all by himself. I wonder how worried his mother must be. It's really a headache, haha."

"Well, although it might be a bit inappropriate to say it this way, I would appreciate it if Your Majesty would take good care of Pete. That child is rather impulsive."

Rami couldn't hear anything the woman said after that.

His eyes were lifeless, staring blankly at the ground. He walked forward aimlessly with his head down, even forgetting why he had come out in the first place.

Rami had no idea when he had ended up on the rooftop of the Earth Sword.

Only then did he dare to lift his aching neck and look at the distant sky.

“My people are waiting for their children to come home.”

"But the king they trusted caused their warriors to perish on the battlefield."

"Teacher, you always tell me to stand tall and face everything, but I really don't know how to face them."

Rami pursed his lips, tears of helplessness welling up in his bloodshot eyes.

He knew that as a king, he shouldn't be moved by such things.

But if he could truly control his emotions.

What about people?

A person who is too emotional is not suited to be a king.

Rami realized this, but it was too late for him to turn back.

His eyes were filled with confusion and fear.

It's not about fearing Kazan.

It was the fear that his people, though anxious and worried, still looked at him with trust and tenderness.

It is the pale, pained face of the fearful warriors, yet still brave and resolute on the battlefield.

Rami wanted to ask her teacher what she should do.

Just like in the past when he was afraid to make a choice in front of the maze, the teacher would gently take his hand and lead him to the right path.

"Teacher, why am I always like this?"

"In the end, I'm still the same weak and timid Rami I was when I was a child."

Rami wiped away the tears on her face and lifted her tired eyelids.

Even if this path is painful.

He will continue on this path.

Even if he's all alone, he will still keep going.

To reach the world where success has shaped that ideal.

or.

Walk to death.

This is the awareness that was recognized by Czechoslovakia.

. . .

A town in the southern part of the western continent.

Kazan sat on the sofa, eating with a blank expression, listening to the intelligence reports from his subordinates.

"Is Fuguang planning to launch an attack on Eindook?"

Kazan raised his eyelids slightly.

"Yes."

The intelligence officer nodded cautiously, then continued,

"The Kingdom of Fuguang is planning to take advantage of the chaos in our Great Kingdom to reap the benefits. They have already amassed a large number of troops in the northern part of the central continent, and it seems that they are preparing to launch an attack on Eindook after our war."

".snort."

Kazan grinned and waved his hand.

"I'll have all the troops stay put for the next few days. Rahiram and I will go to the Kingdom of Blessed Light."

"Yes!"

That night.

The golden flames ignited the capital of Fuguang, and the plains near the capital were engulfed in flames.

The Kingdom of Fuguang spent a great deal of manpower to extinguish the fire, but the losses were extremely heavy, with tens of thousands of people and Pokémon killed or injured.

Having witnessed the dragon's immense power, King Fuguang could no longer harbor any desire for anything.

He was also worried that Kazan might suddenly decide to destroy his Kingdom of Blessed Light.

So they hurriedly recalled the troops gathered in the north to garrison the capital, and began living in constant fear.

Wait until Kazan returns.

The wars of the Northern and Southern Dynasties resumed.

But he wasn't in a hurry at all. He would strike from the left one day and from the right the next, slowly maneuvering against his elder brother.

None of Kazan's subordinates knew his purpose in doing this.

Only he knows.

at most.

There's also a teacher whose whereabouts are unknown.

. . .

Tourmaline Cave.

As if sensing something, Wu Ge turned his head to look upwards.

"Roar?"

The red-faced dragon looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"There's some noise up there, very close. Let's go check it out."

"Roar."

The red-faced dragon's eyes lit up, and he nodded.

Something interesting finally happened.

They temporarily left the dragon vein cave and turned to head outside.

The tourmaline caves are very large, with at least a hundred paths intertwined.

The reason for this is quite simple.

These paths were created by mantle rock and electric spiders eating their way through.

The electric spiders eat the electricity on tourmaline, while the mantle rocks eat tourmaline that has lost its electricity.

Because of this characteristic, the two races have lived in peace in this tourmaline cave since ancient times.

I've been eating this for so many years.

Naturally, they discovered many paths through their eating habits.

The tourmaline caves will only be more spectacular a thousand years from now.

Even Wu Ge.

They found this place using the Earth Scepter and the Core of the Earth.

Even if he were allowed to go out now, he would probably need to spend more time finding his way.

now.

Following the waveguide's perception, Wu Ge headed towards the target location, encountering some dead ends along the way.

About half an hour later.

Wu Ge arrived at a dark and gloomy tunnel.

This tunnel is still within the area of ​​the tourmaline caves.

However, there were only a few tourmalines in the passage, which were clearly left there intentionally for lighting purposes.

Keng.

Keng.

The sound of metal clanging came from the end of the road.

Upon hearing this voice, Wu Ge roughly understood what was going on.

It must be the people of the Earth Kingdom mining tourmaline.

But what puzzled Wu Ge was...

Is it really necessary to come all the way down here to mine?

Coming down is easy, but going up is difficult.

It wouldn't be surprising if an ordinary person came in and got trapped and died here.

and.

Why not use the power of Pokémon to collect tourmaline?

Wouldn't that be more efficient and less strenuous?

Wu Ge didn't know which of the two princes had occupied the tourmaline cave.

Driven by curiosity.

He and the red-faced dragon headed towards the end of the road.

He didn't take a few steps.
