Chapter 112: I'm Not Really a Greedy Person
Chapter 112: I’m Not Really a Greedy Person
“Isn’t this a bit too much?”
Jing He looked at the Energy Block Making Handbook in his hand, his face filled with hesitation.
Clearly, this handbook came from Micheli.
In the Pokemon world, Pokemon Breeders and Coordinators are generally skilled in making energy blocks.
Of course, their expertise isn’t limited to just energy blocks.
For instance, Pokemon Breeders, in addition to making energy blocks, must also master skills like Pokemon breeding, reproduction, and even Pokemon massage and postpartum care.
Pokemon Coordinators, on the other hand, specialize in training Pokemon for the Pokemon Contests. They focus not only on their own appearance but also on the Pokemon’s appearance, the elegance of their moves, and the execution of those moves.
In short, making energy blocks is just one of their essential skills.
Micheli, who trained under the top Coordinator Adam, is also deeply invested in the Coordinator career, making him exceptionally skilled in making energy blocks.
Many of Dianthus’s energy blocks are actually bought from Micheli.
The Energy Block Making Handbook he offered combined the experience of both Adam and himself, making its value undeniable.
Micheli smiled slightly.
“I heard from Dianthus that you, Teacher Jing He, often make energy blocks. This might provide you with some help.”
And not just a little help.
Before Jing He could respond, Micheli continued:
“Master always says, don’t hoard your treasures. When someone truly in need appears, don’t be stingy with your abilities. Besides—”
“You have unconditionally helped me.”
Hearing this, Jing He looked down at the handbook in his hand again.
Honestly, this handbook would be more helpful to him than some move tutors or items.
“Since you put it that way, I won’t be shy. It will indeed provide a lot of help.” Jing He said.
His current energy blocks were decent, but who could refuse the chance to make even better ones? It would benefit him and his Gengar and others.
“However, some of the energy blocks in this handbook focus more on enhancing the Pokemon’s appearance. I’ve made adjustments to some, but not all. You might need to make your own judgments.” Micheli reminded him.
As Karna’s battle with her opponent concluded, the "Youth Performance Match" was far from over.
The audience would still get to see several other well-known trainers battle.
However, Jing He and the others were no longer paying much attention to the performance match.
Looking at his phone, Jing He’s expression was somewhat peculiar.
[Dragon Messenger]: Jing He, I have something to do, I’m leaving.
Is he afraid of Karna’s “hunt,” so he’s sneaking away?
There aren’t many people who can scare Dianthus, but Karna is one of them.
Cynthia also informed him that Karna, due to her schedule, left hurriedly after her battle, urged on by her manager.
Then Jing He received another message.
[Eternal Eighteen]: Excuse me, where are you in Hoenn?
[Jing He]: Currently in Lilycove City.
[Eternal Eighteen]: I’m also in Lilycove City, on Third Street, at the ice cream shop next to the Whiscash plushie store. I wonder if—
Jing He gently rubbed his chin.
Why does he have a feeling that he might know this person?
“What’s wrong?”
Cynthia, who was busy arranging a fruit platter with her Glaceon, noticed his expression and asked.
Thanks to Glaceon’s “effort,” the fruit platter had somehow turned into a Manaphy.
You guys really have time to spare.
But, it does look quite similar.
“I have an online ‘patient’ who happens to be in Lilycove City and wants to meet me in person.” Jing He said.
Hearing this, Cynthia tilted her head.
“Do you want me to go with you?”
Thinking of Mismagius’s condition, perhaps Manaphy could provide some stimulation, Jing He nodded.
“Sure.”
Lilycove City is a massive city shaped like a volcanic crater, with high terrain around and low in the center. The city’s unique geography, combined with the influx of seawater, has created numerous waterways.
Visitors can travel through the city on Lilycove City’s unique boats, reaching most places.
Jing He and Cynthia took a boat to Third Street, where "Eternal Eighteen" said they were.
The Whiscash plushie store is a well-known attraction in Lilycove City, easily recognizable from a distance due to the large Whiscash advertisement, making it easy to find.
They arrived at the ice cream shop next to the Whiscash plushie store.
Cynthia and Gengar were immediately drawn to the ice cream displayed in the freezer’s window.
“Jing He, it looks so delicious—”
Cynthia looked at Jing He, her eyes twinkling.
Having just sent “I’m at the door” to "Eternal Eighteen," Jing He didn’t hesitate to say:
“Buy some.”
But after he said that, he noticed Cynthia and the three little ones staring at him expectantly.
Alright.
The three little ones had no money, and Cynthia, despite having money, was indecisive and would probably take forever to choose. By the time she picked something, the sun would be setting.
So, he stepped forward to help.
“Two Emperor Walrein Giant Sundaes, and one Sealeo Ice Cream—”
Buzz—
Cynthia’s Poke Ball on her waist suddenly opened, and Eevee jumped out.
“Eevee~~”
“—Five Sealeo Ice Creams, then.”
At that moment.
"Teacher Jing He, and Miss Cynthia?"
A voice laced with surprise came from the side.
Konn claimed to be nonchalant as she hid the Whiscash plushie behind her back, her eyes flicking between the two of them, clearly taken aback.
"Konn?"
"Miss Konn?"
Jing He and Cynthia exchanged glances, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.
Then, Jing He's expression became a bit strange.
Aldith, Konn, Daimao, Mikuri, Cynthia, and Karin. So, this "Youth Exhibition Match" really became a "Patient Exhibition Match"?
It seems they make up half of the participants.
Under the umbrella outside the Seel Ball Ice Cream Shop, Jing He, Cynthia, and Konn sat around a table.
Gastly, holding two "Dewgong Mega Ice Creams," couldn't help but cackle, licking one side and then the other, thoroughly enjoying itself.
Meanwhile, Little Smith, Eevee, and Weavile sat on the table, eating their ice creams contentedly.
"So cute..."
Konn couldn't help but comment, but she quickly seemed to realize something and cleared her throat, composing herself.
She threw out a Poke Ball.
"Chuun?"
A bewildered Smoochum appeared.
"Chuun!"
But when Smoochum saw the Weavile on the table, her eyes lit up instantly.
Bouncing on her short legs, she jumped onto the table and, under Weavile's confused gaze, hugged it tightly.
Her face pressed against Weavile's, she began to nuzzle it fiercely.
"Chuun~~ Chuun~~"
Weavile, hehe, it's Weavile, hehe.
Weavile then saw a pair of thick lips puckering up, ready to kiss it.
"Oh, oh wow!! Σ(дlll)"
Weavile kicked frantically, trying to push Smoochum away, but Smoochum was relentless, determined to give Weavile a kiss.
Gastly watched, wide-eyed.
This one is even more direct than I am.
Konn facepalmed.
Jing He couldn't bear to watch either.
He had thought Smoochum would see Weavile as a rival, but instead, she became a little fangirl?
Indeed, online psychological guidance can sometimes have a bit of a cognitive bias. Meeting in person is still very necessary.
Cynthia, on the other hand, seemed to be enjoying the scene.
"It looks like Smoochum really likes Weavile."
Feeling that Weavile was being "bullied," Little Smith quietly grabbed a hammer nearby, his eyes scanning Smoochum.
"Chu?"
Head? Rear? Head, definitely?
Seeing this, Jing He's face changed.
If that hammer hits Smoochum's head...
Konn was quicker, already recalling Smoochum with a Poke Ball, looking embarrassed and awkward.
But she felt that after meeting her "idol" like this, Smoochum would become more motivated when she returned.
The three of them chatted a bit more.
Jing He gave Konn some additional advice and suggestions regarding Smoochum.
When Cynthia casually mentioned that Aldith had already left, Konn, whose ears had been slightly red, immediately became serious.
She stood up, apologized to the two of them, and left a box as a thank-you gift for Jing He before turning and running off.
"Hmm?"
Watching Konn leave quickly, Cynthia asked in a low voice, as if just realizing something:
"Miss Konn and Mr. Aldith, are they not getting along?"
Sister, you're just noticing this now?
"Not exactly. There's a saying, 'beating and scolding is a sign of love, and if you don't love enough, you beat to death.' Konn and Aldith have a karmic connection."
Jing He took the box, jokingly saying.
Opening the box, he found a "Non-melting Ice"!
[Non-melting Ice: Carrying this item increases the power of Ice-type moves.]
This thing isn't cheap.
And the quality of the Non-melting Ice Konn gave was clearly high, likely worth at least a million.
Jing He took a deep breath.
Konn was born on the fourth island of the "Seven Isles," where there is a "Freezing Waterfall Cave" that produces Non-melting Ice. Owning the "Freezing Waterfall Cave" is probably worth several of Daimao's mines.
They're all rich people.
He had only wanted to help trainers and Pokemon online for free, but he always ended up receiving unexpected "gifts."
Truly...
I'm not a greedy person.
He skillfully put the Non-melting Ice and the box into his pocket.
"What about Miss Haruka?"
Cynthia believed Jing He's words, and there was even a hint of "gossip" in her tone.
So, every girl has a bit of a "gossip" heart.
"Cough, don't worry. Although the waters are deep, Aldith is a good flyer and knows his limits."
Aldith is far from that.
The future Red will be the one who leaves his mark everywhere without getting involved.
"Hmm?"
Cynthia blinked.
She felt that Jing He's words had more than one meaning.
Suddenly,
Cynthia smiled, a bit teasingly.
"What about you?"
