Chapter 193: This is Aura?
Chapter 193: This is Aura?
Perched on a branch near the crown of the World Tree, Jing He looked up to see a vast sea of white clouds stretching endlessly.
Looking down, the towering height of the World Tree was enough to make one's heart race with fear.
A cold breeze blew past, carrying a faint, refreshing fragrance that invigorated the spirit.
While noticing the changes around him, Jing He's attention was mostly focused on the cute, pink little creature with its bottom sticking out.
‘If Mewtwo knew its original form was this playful, its self-image would probably crumble.’
Jing He had already complained about this more than once in his mind.
But despite the complaints, the current issue needed to be addressed.
“Mew,” Jing He called out.
“Mewmew?”
Hearing the voice, the Mew, whose head was buried in a pile of toys, paused and slowly emerged.
These toys were collected by Mew during its many adventures outside. Many of them were quite old, reflecting Mew’s playful nature. Even after living for thousands, perhaps millions of years, Mew remained as playful as a child.
Some beings become serious and philosophical after just a few days, while others, like Mew, remain playful even after millions of years. This was perhaps the biggest difference between Mew and Mewtwo.
Mew cautiously poked its head out, looking left and right before finally spotting Jing He.
“Mew~”
Its eyes lit up slightly, but it was clear that Mew wasn’t in the best spirits, with its ears and tail drooping.
Jing He then released his Poke Balls, summoning Ice Six-Tail and the others.
When Mew saw Ice Six-Tail, it finally perked up a bit. It floated over to Ice Six-Tail, pulling it to its pile of toys and dug out a small horn, blowing it proudly to show off.
Then, it took out a spinning top, which began to rotate automatically when placed down. These toys were its most precious and beloved possessions.
“Ooh~”
Ice Six-Tail let out a gentle call.
Mew’s toys looked nice, but they were actually outdated and worn out.
“Mew?”
Mew tilted its head, blinking as it tried to think of something Ice Six-Tail might like. After a long while, it couldn’t come up with anything and simply smiled at Ice Six-Tail.
“Mew~”
Jing He sighed softly.
Mew’s innocent, playful, and even mischievous nature wasn’t without reason. If it spent every day like Mewtwo, pondering the meaning of its existence and why it was alive, it would drive any being mad over the span of millions of years.
It was precisely this eternal innocence that allowed Mew to live a carefree life. Its occasional mischief was merely a spice in an otherwise mundane existence. Sometimes, it longed for a playmate, but all it had were these outdated and even broken toys.
Jing He walked over to Mew and Ice Six-Tail, crouching down and asking softly, “Mew, are you okay?”
Mew flew around Jing He twice, its body glowing softly with a gentle white light, transforming into an Ice Six-Tail. It snuggled into Jing He’s arms, rubbing against him and sniffing hard. Then, it transformed back, closing its eyes contentedly.
“Ooh?”
Ice Six-Tail’s eyes widened in realization.
It was Mew.
The little Six-Tail puffed out its cheeks, its eyes sparkling.
Jing He reached out to pet it. He hadn’t realized it was Mew before, but now he felt a sense of achievement—being the first to pet Mew!
However, as soon as he touched the little creature, his brow furrowed.
Mew’s body temperature was a bit high.
“Is it running a fever?”
He looked at the Pokedex entry that appeared when Mew transformed.
Mew
Type: Psychic
Ability: Synchronize
Moves: Pound, Reflect, Amnesia, Baton Pass, Primordial Power, Life Dew, Feint...
Mood: Happy, Scared (Sensed a terrifying Aura force)
Status: Fever (Its temperature became abnormal after being startled)
Affection: 50 (You smell good)
‘This little one is quite perceptive, and it smells good too.’ Jing He’s eyes twitched.
He had seen the vast array of moves used by Nidoran and Nidoking before, but compared to Mew, they were nothing. Mew could learn any non-exclusive move, making it the true master of moves!
However, Jing He’s attention was now on Mew’s condition.
As he had suspected, Mew had indeed developed a fever due to a sudden fright, which was affecting the World Tree.
“Mew”
Mew, who had been somewhat lively, immediately wilted upon hearing Jing He’s words, seeming even more listless.
Seeing this, Jing He couldn’t help but smile.
This little one was just like an ordinary child. When sick, it didn’t feel anything until someone showed concern, at which point it would act as if it was seriously ill, seeking attention and care.
However, Jing He had no intention of letting Mew go. Instead, he held it even tighter.
The little one looked pitiful, having lived alone for so many years, with perhaps only a few who truly cared about it.
Jing He pulled out a few energy cubes.
"Mew?" The drooping Mew sniffed lightly, curious, and took the cubes with its tiny hands, taking a small bite.
Instantly, its face lit up with an expression of utmost happiness.
"Mew~~"
"Once you're full, you'll feel better."
Jing He didn't know how to treat the legendary Pokemon known as Mew, but he did know how to care for it.
He picked up the little one and ran toward the core of the World Tree.
Lucario, Gengar, and Weavile followed closely behind.
Initially, Weavile had some reservations, but seeing Mew's condition, those thoughts were quickly pushed aside, replaced by genuine concern.
At the core of the World Tree.
The area was filled with numerous crystals, the largest one at the center being intricately linked to Mew.
Mew's illness was evident as the normally emerald green environment was now intertwined with streaks of red.
Lucario almost immediately found the glove Alain had left on the crystal, along with a crystallized bouquet of flowers.
These were special "Time Flowers," capable of recording images.
Through these "Time Flowers," Lucario saw the moment Alain sacrificed himself, transferring all his Aura power to Mew.
The scene was almost identical to what Jing He had shown him in his dreams.
"Luca."
Lucario slowly stood up, his eyes filled with determination.
Alain left me here for this very moment!
[I know how to heal Mew!]
Weavile and the others looked at Lucario with worry.
His expression was resolute.
Gengar floated beside Lucario.
"Gengar."
Little Lucario, that's not how you save someone.
But Lucario paid no attention, completely immersed in the world of self-sacrifice.
Mew had just a mild fever, not a life-threatening condition. The World Tree's reaction said it all; there was no need to think so tragically.
However, from Jing He's perspective, this might be a good thing for Lucario.
To be reborn from the brink of death.
This determination was the bond that transcended time and space between Lucario and Alain.
'Let him release it.'
It would help him move past the painful memories.
Jing He gave the little ones a reassuring look.
He carried Mew to Lucario.
"Don't worry, I'll be with you."
"Mew~"
Mew gave a weak smile and nodded at Lucario.
Lucario's expression was serious as he extended his hands.
"Aura, be with me!!"
Buzz—
A surge of Aura power materialized, forming a deep blue aura that enveloped Mew in Jing He's arms.
[Alain.]
Lucario slowly closed his eyes, tears trickling down his cheeks.
[I understand, Aura is the power to help others. When you make a decision, this power will give back to you to the fullest extent. This is]
[The essence of Aura!]
Buzz—
Huh?
Lucario, immersed in his resolve for self-sacrifice, felt that he had only released a little more than half of his Aura power. He hadn't even begun to use the potential gained from the sacrifice.
He opened his eyes in shock.
Because he felt Mew seemed to... be recovering?
A brilliant white light burst from Mew, its eyes forming a crescent moon.
The massive branches of the World Tree trembled slightly, as if regaining vitality, and the red light in the crystals gradually faded.
Jing He, holding Mew, had a peculiar expression.
You were almost healed before even receiving treatment, huh?
You little trickster.
But to be honest, this personality does have a connection with me.
"Mew~~"
Perhaps sensing that Jing He had seen through it, Mew playfully stuck out its tongue.
Lucario, seeing this, felt a strange mix of loss and renewal.
It was as if... he had experienced life and death, and now saw through it.
He was about to stop the flow of Aura when his expression suddenly changed, becoming serious once more.
Mew also seemed to sense something.
"Mew?"
Mew examined Jing He from top to bottom.
At the same time.
Jing He, holding Mew, paused.
Hmm?
He closed his eyes.
[You indeed have the potential to become an 'Aura Guardian'!]
Under the influence of Lucario's Aura, he felt something becoming clearer.
Mew also took flight.
Its gaze swept over Jing He, Gengar, Weavile, Beldum, and Dratini.
It then smiled sweetly.
Its long, soft pink tail gently swayed, tapping Jing He's chest.
Buzz—
Lucario withdrew his Aura.
But Jing He, with his eyes closed, could now precisely sense the positions of Lucario, Mew, and the four little ones.
"Is this... Aura?"
