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

She believed that with her excellent command, it would be easy to defeat Xia Mu in his current state.

Then...

She saw that Xia Mu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly smiled sarcasticly.

The other person silently opened his mouth and lip-synced to her.

J subconsciously followed Xia Mu's instructions and murmured

--"idiot."

This is what Xia Mu wanted to express, and J couldn't help but frowned.

With her mentality, she wouldn't be broken by a word of sarcasm.

What J couldn't understand was why Xia Mu could still remain so fearless after she had risked her own life to make a comeback.

Is it relying on the bombs underground?

Don't be ridiculous, the countdown is on her, and she still has quite a while to go...

J couldn't think any further when he was halfway through the thought.

Because she suddenly realized that she seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding that Xia Mu had designed for her from the beginning.

Since the opponent has the ability to bypass her manipulator and put the bomb into countdown.

Does that mean that Xia Mu can also bypass the countdown and detonate the bomb directly?

The moment he realized this, J broke out in a cold sweat.

She finally understood that Xia Mu's target was not only her, but also everyone on the airship behind her.

"Quick, get me out of here!"

J turned over and straddled one of the desert dragonflies beside him, giving orders in a rapid tone.

She had no time to care about the so-called airship at this time.

Let it explode, anyway, if you lose your men you can find new ones, if you lose your Pokémon you can catch new ones.

But if we don't leave now, it will be too late.

"Want to leave now?"

"Don't you think it's too late?"

Xia Mu calmly looked at J who wanted to escape, and gently grabbed with his palm, and let his mental power flow towards the desert dragonfly like a maggot on the tarsal bone.

Although the clothes on J can block super powers, it doesn't mean that the opponent's Pokémon can also do so.

"Rumble--"

As the Desert Dragonfly that J was riding fell to the ground unsteadily, the ground also made a violent sound that was about to reach the threshold.

"Boom boom boom——"

The stones on the ground shook slightly, as if something was about to break out of the ground.

Seeing this, J could no longer laugh. Her face looked more bitter and fearful than ever before.

She never thought that her life would come to an end just because she wanted to recruit a new partner.

She didn't struggle anymore.

Because she knew that with the power of the bomb she had planted, if she tried to escape now, she would not be able to survive unless Arceus showed up.

"Latios, take care of Tis."

Chapter 91 Ending

"Latios, take care of Tis."

The situation has been decided, Xia Mu said to Latios with a relaxed expression.

Although he felt a little regretful that he couldn't accompany Latias to the end.

But Xia Mu believed that with his long-term planning, it would be enough for the other party to spend the rest of his life in peace and happiness.

And with Latios around, Tess won't be too lonely.

"no, do not want!"

"How did you make me like this? You did the same to yourself!"

Seeing that the roar of the earth was getting more and more deafening, Xia Mu also said something stupid to him, which made Latios completely unable to remain calm.

If he was not in a soul state at this moment, one would have been able to see that his eyes were already bloodshot.

However...

Xia Mu didn't say much about his request, nor did he have time to say anything else.

The other party only had time to give him a gentle smile that was a little helpless.

Latios watched helplessly as the earth cracked and dozens of flames emerged from the ground, like devouring fire snakes, greedily and quickly devouring everything on the open space.

"do not want!"

Latios' eyes suddenly widened, and he wanted to use his skills to retain the figure in the fire.

But at this moment, he obviously did not have any ability to influence real things.

He watched helplessly as the skill he had unleashed passed through the flames, passed through Xia Mu, and finally disappeared somewhere unknown.

The bomb is very powerful.

So much so that no matter whether it was the sturdy speedboat or the well-equipped J, the moment they exploded and drilled out of the ground, they disappeared in the extreme high temperature.

"Boom!!"

A huge sound like the collapse of heaven and earth suddenly exploded on the island.

A mushroom cloud rose in the center of the isolated island, and the air waves caused by the explosion spread out in all directions carrying thick smoke.

Whether it was the green plants that were still intact on the periphery or the huge rocks on the ground, they were all blown away from the island under the impact of the air waves.

Sharing his brother's vision, Latias, who was still in a daze, was also carried out of the island by the shock wave.

It was not until she fell into the cold sea water at dawn that her numb senses finally began to fluctuate a little.

"Xia Mu..."

An unconscious murmur came out of Latias's mouth.

...........................

...............

at the same time

Latios in soul state was not affected by the bomb and he remained where he was.

But in front of him was an open space full of gullies and a burnt black color.

The violent explosion extinguished the fire that was originally burning on the island.

The price is... this once vibrant island has now turned into a lifeless scorched earth.

"why?"

Latios looked somewhat helpless.

In his original plan, he was clearly sacrificing himself so that Xia Mu would become his sister's new refuge from then on.

The one who should die is him, not Xia Mu!

But...but why did it turn out like this?

If this was Xia Mu's plan from the beginning, then he would never have agreed to it from the beginning.

Compared to Xia Mu, I, who just want Latias to stay on the island and live a peaceful life, don’t even have the qualifications to compare with him.

Then what qualifications does he have to ask Xia Mu to sacrifice himself in exchange for his life!

Latios' thoughts were already in a mess at this time.

However, at this moment, a ball of light blue light suddenly appeared on a flat open space.

Latios stared blankly at the ball of light that suddenly appeared. He didn't know what it was.

But he felt Xia Mu's breath inside.

"Xia Mu, is that you?" he asked excitedly.

If there was a way to resurrect Xia Mu, even if it meant turning him into the same state as himself, Latios would never hesitate.

But just as hope began to rise in his heart, the ball of light suddenly and spontaneously split into two.

The two balls of light looked like two suspended will-o'-the-wisp.

The moment the split was completed, one of them flew quickly away.

The other one went straight into Latios' arms.

The moment he touched the ball of light, Latios felt warmth at the point of impact.

He slowly widened his eyes. This was the first object he could actually touch after turning into a soul.

Then, Latios saw with his own eyes that his body and arms were becoming more solid bit by bit.

The originally translucent body gradually began to show its original blue and white color. The ball of light just now seemed to have played some kind of perfecting role, transforming his body from soul to entity.

But Latios didn't feel any joy at all.

He had already guessed that this was Xia Mu's work.

However, the ability to resurrect the dead out of thin air is almost impossible for ordinary people to master, except for a few legendary Pokémon such as Ho-Oh.

Xia Mu must have paid a huge price to be able to do this.

And now it seems that the price may very well be - death!

the other side.

Latias stared blankly at the deserted island.

This was the island where she and Xia Mu first lived together.

Now, it has become the place of our final separation.

She still couldn't believe that the other party would choose to leave her at this time.

But when she saw from her brother's perspective that the ball of light that the other party had transformed into repaired the former's obviously problematic translucent body, she realized that this might be a premeditated plan by the other party.

"why."

"Didn't you promise to travel with me? Why?"

After a long silence, Latias finally couldn't suppress the emotions in his heart.

A string of crystal tears fell down like beads with broken strings.

At this moment, a ball of light with faint fluorescence appeared in front of Latias.

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, sobbed twice, and recognized that this was the ball of light that had just separated from her brother.

From the ball of light, she felt Xia Mu's breath.

It is also the other party's only remaining breath.

She opened her arms and wanted to hold it in her arms, but as soon as her arms opened, the ball of light had already crashed into her arms.

In an instant, Latias felt as if his body was being caressed by a warm and familiar hand, bringing waves of warmth.

At the same time, her aura began to rise rapidly with the help of the ball of light, and soon exceeded her previous limit.

I have become stronger...

This is the thing that Latias understands most clearly.
