I've seen many people raising wives, but this is the first time I've seen someone raising

This is an activity he performs every day for a year.

Although Fishmelt has no fighting ability, he did not throw the opponent into the pond to fend for itself like some trainers did.

On the contrary, Xia Mu specially developed a number of energy cubes that suit the other party's taste, and would say some compliments to Chouchou Fish from time to time.

Because it is said that this can increase the chances of the Clownfish evolving.

"correct."

Xia Mu took out a rainbow-colored scale that looked like a necklace and put it on the fin on the back of the chou chou fish with his own hands.

This is the beautiful scale that he asked Daigo to find for him.

Considering the other party's wealthy family background, it is easy for him to find an evolution item.

However, just as Xia Mu took his hand out of the water, the ugly fish in the fish tank suddenly emitted a white light.

Chapter 53 What are you doing?

Xia Mu looked at the changes in the ugly fish in the fish tank with some surprise.

As a trainer, he naturally knew what this meant.

As the white light continued to shine, the Clownfish jumped out of the narrow fish tank.

In mid-air, the body that was originally similar to that of a Magikarp gradually became slender, with two long braids divided from the rough surface and several tail fins appearing at the tail.

"miu~"

Along with a light and pleasant voice, the white light dissipated.

A slender, cream-colored snake-shaped Pokémon with clear blue scales on its tail appeared in front of Xia Mu.

Compared to the dull-colored, expressionless Pokémon just now, the Pokémon in front of him had undoubtedly undergone a drastic change.

"Mienshao." Xia Mu whispered the name of the Pokémon.

His expression also showed some surprise and surprise at this time. He didn't expect that Merlot would evolve into Milotic so quickly.

"miu~"

Hearing Xia Mu's call, Milotic swam with its flexible body and slid in front of the former.

With a gentle curl of her tail, Xia Mu was irresistibly pulled into her arms.

The cold scales scratched across his body, making Xia Mu shiver unconsciously.

But before he could react, a thin, long tongue with a hot breath began to move around his neck.

"Meenas!"

Suddenly stimulated by this, Xia Mu hurriedly stopped this Pokémon that was becoming too intimate with him after its evolution.

Maybe Xia Mu's order worked, or maybe it was some other reason.

Milotic quickly stopped her evil act of turning the tables. She blinked her big watery eyes, looking peaceful and beautiful.

It has not lost its reputation as the most beautiful Pokémon at all.

However, before Xia Musong could breathe a sigh of relief, a cold voice suddenly sounded from the bottom of his heart:

"What are you doing?"

Latias, who appeared out of nowhere, stood at the door, frowning as he looked at the scene in the room.

Her voice was more serious than ever, as if she had seen her own child doing something unhealthy.

This was the first time Xia Mu heard Tess speak to him in such a cold voice.

Faced with the pressure, he unconsciously lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong.

"Tess, listen to me..."

"What did you call me?" Latias interrupted coldly.

Xia Mu was stunned at first, then said in a muffled voice:

"Mother..."

Seeing Xia Mu being so obedient, the unknown fire that had risen in Latias subsided a little.

It is normal for trainers to be close to Pokémon.

But for some reason, after Latias opened the door and saw the scene just now, a sudden anger devoured her reason in an instant.

It's like something that belongs to you has suddenly been taken away by someone else.

Latias thought that this might be a sign that she cared about Xia Mu, nothing more.

[That night, you coaxed Tis for a long time before she calmed down.]

[During this period, perhaps considering the identity of Tis's "mother", Mienshao was quite cooperative and admitted his mistake. ]

[But even so, after you calm down, you still feel strange, because according to your observation, Des is not a person who hates Pokémon. You don't know why she has such a big reaction. ]

【You intuitively feel that this is also related to the other party’s secret. 】

[The following year, you became interested in becoming a breeder and began to study the production of energy cubes.]

"Xia Mu, what is this?" Latias leaned over.

After noticing the pink square in Xia Mu's hand, she sniffed and smelled an extremely tempting fragrance.

A feeling of hunger welled up in my stomach.

Latias was sure that these small cubes were more delicious than any berries she had eaten before!

"Energy cube."

Seeing Tess's curious look, Xia Mu smiled, picked up one from his hand and handed it to the former's mouth.

"Would you like to try one? Although this is Pokémon food, humans can eat it too."

When the delicious food was handed to her mouth, Tess wanted to take a big bite.

But when she heard Xia Mu explain that this was "Pokémon food", she couldn't help but pause.

"Since it's Pokémon's food... I'd better not eat it."

Latias's eyes darted around, she was afraid of any action that might reveal her identity.

However, Xia Mu could see that she wanted to eat but was extremely patient.

Although he wondered why his mother was so insistent on this matter, he also had ways to make her eat it obediently.

"You really don't want to try one?"

Xia Mu shook his palm seductively, and the energy block in his hand brushed against Tess's lips faintly.

The aroma spread across his lips, and Latias couldn't help swallowing, the desire to swallow it all in one gulp becoming more and more obvious.

But the last bit of rationality made her turn her head away firmly.

However, this line of defense that was built with great difficulty collapsed at the sound of Xia Mu's words.

"If you don't try it, all these energy cubes will end up in Mienshao's stomach."

As he spoke, a cunning light flashed in Xia Mu's eyes.

He believed that as long as the mention of Mienshao was mentioned, Tess would never be able to remain as calm as she was now.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the other party's warm little mouth had already bitten the energy cube.

I don’t know if it was because he used too much force, but Xia Mu’s fingers were also sucked in.

"Well..."

After eating the cube, Latias came to his senses and realized that he had fallen into Xia Mu's trap again.

She snorted softly and ran into the house with a red face.

[From then on, you began to find ways to secretly add powdered energy cubes to your meals.]

[As expected, Dessie's appetite is much better than before, and she is amazed at your improved cooking skills.]

[The other person's praise makes you fall into deep thought. You don't know if it's because your mother's natural taste is more inclined towards Pokémon, or...]

[You didn’t tell anyone about this conjecture, but kept it in your heart.]

[But later, in your spare time, you will start to purposefully check which Pokémon can turn into humans. ]

Chapter 54: Do you think there will be Pokémon that blend into human society?

"Mom, do you think there are Pokémon that can transform into human form and blend into human society?"

During dinner, Xia Mu suddenly asked.

Latias, who was originally immersed in the delicious food, trembled violently when she heard the words. She quickly raised her head, as if she wanted to find clues on Xia Mu's face.

After making sure that the other party was just being as curious as ever, she breathed a sigh of relief.

“Probably not.” Latias tried to make his voice sound steady.

"Pokémon are Pokémon, how can they become humans?"

"is it?"

Xia Mu nodded without comment, his eyes never leaving the notebook in his hand.

For a moment, the dinner table fell into silence.

Latias' heart was pounding. She didn't know why Xia Mu suddenly asked such a question.

Is it just pure curiosity?

Or maybe I noticed something...

Especially the other party's thoughtful look made her feel uneasy, and she wanted to know more about what was recorded in the notebook.

"What, what's wrong?"

"Why do you ask this suddenly?"

After a long while, Latias, unable to bear it any longer, broke the silence first.

The moment she spoke, she felt her heart had risen to her throat.

"Ok?"

Hearing Tess's question, Xia Mu was stunned at first, then he smiled gently.

"I'm just curious. If there is such a Pokémon, I would really like to raise one."

As he spoke, Xia Mu took a bite of the food in the bowl and closed the notebook.

Seeing this, Latias couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But what concerned her more was the second half of Xia Mu's sentence...

"Would you like to have one?"

These were the most reassuring words she had ever heard. Her heart, which had been hanging so high, finally showed signs of settling down.

[In the same year, your cultivation level increased rapidly, and you concluded that Des liked to eat sweet and sour energy cubes.]

[Obtained Item: Latias's Favorite Recipe x 1]

[8 years old, you recently heard some bad news—poachers are active near Kanaz City.]

【The school therefore implemented a policy of starting classes late and leaving school early. Many students cheered for this, but you felt a little uneasy.】

[But there is also good news. The evolved Milotic has shown extraordinary talent and strength. Apart from liking to tie you up and ravage you, she is already a qualified main force.]

[My only regret is that for some reason, the relationship between Milotic and Tiss has become less harmonious.]

"Go back to your Poké Ball. Xia Mu will sleep with me tonight."
