Chapter 386: Oh No, I'm Surrounded by Eevees!
After bidding farewell to the trio, Naoki finally returned to the ranch with his basket.
He took out some of the mushrooms, planning to cook a delicious chicken and mushroom stew for dinner, while the rest would be dried and saved for a tasty treat during the snowy winter months.
Additionally, Naoki shared with Lei Guan Wang the encounter he had just experienced in the mountains.
Naoki: "I met more human trainers who idolize you. They even came specifically to visit the Bountiful Shrine."
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Lei Guan Wang's face.
Recalling the events of the past two years, even this ancient Pokemon felt a sense of emotion.
The life it led now seemed like a dream.
Humans who admired, sought its legend, and placed their trust in it were being born in this very land.
Who could have believed that, a year ago, it endured loneliness and sorrow alone in the Crown Snowfield?
Lei Guan Wang: "...I am very pleased."
Naoki added, "By the way, this year will be the first time we hold the Harvest Festival. I wonder what it will be like."
Naoki had attended the festival last year, and even then, the number of participants was overwhelming. Now, with Lei Guan Wang's fame spreading throughout the Padia region, he could only imagine how many more people would be drawn to the event.
Perhaps the entire mountain would be packed, with tourists crowding the Bountiful Shrine.
Lei Guan Wang nodded slightly: "I'm looking forward to it as well."
With the summer heat subsiding, the Pokemon had left the comfort of the air-conditioned rooms and ventured out into the ranch to play.
As Naoki tidied up the mushrooms, he stepped out of the house, intending to pluck a few onions from the fields for stir-frying.
However, as he stepped outside, he spotted an airborne taxi in the form of a red-eyed pigeon slowly approaching the ranch.
Hmm? Naoki was taken aback.
Who could be visiting the ranch now?
The red-eyed pigeon taxi landed on the grass, and a man with blond hair, wearing a brown coat, jumped out of the car.
His expression was serious, and he gave off the air of being meticulous and strict.
Naoki was momentarily stunned. Was this man Yasaku?
Yasaku, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Padia region, the Dragon King, an expert in Dragon-type Pokemon, and the young master of a Dragon Tamer family. He also served as an art teacher at Padia College.
"Hello, Mr. Naoki," the man said. "I am Yasaku. I have been entrusted by the Principal to deliver a gift to you."
Naoki was perplexed. What gift? Could it be that Ye Ci had already helped him collect 1,000 Padia ancient gold coins?
Confused but polite, Naoki replied, "Hello, Mr. Yasaku."
Then, to his surprise, Yasaku started bringing down from the taxi seven Pokemon eggs with brown patterns on their shells.
Naoki was utterly bewildered by this sight.
"...What are these?"
Yasaku: "These are the gifts that the Principal has entrusted me to deliver to you. They are Eevee eggs."
Wait, Eevees?
How did Ye Ci know about his desire to collect Eevees of all attributes? Naoki's mind raced, and he soon recalled the afternoon when he had shared with Kishu and Gulu Xia his plan to build an Eevee Paradise.
This was too much, even for Ye Ci!
Naoki felt grateful for her help in collecting the Padia ancient gold coins, and now she had suddenly presented him with seven Eevee eggs. What was she planning?
Yasaku: "I have delivered the gift as instructed. I must return to the college as there are matters that require my attention. Farewell."
With that, Yasaku prepared to depart in the airborne taxi.
However, his sharp eyes spotted the numerous Haxorus and Axew roaming the ranch.
One, two, three... a total of nine.
As the young master of a Dragon Tamer family, they only had five Axew in their entire family!
And now, the number of Axew in this ranch was even more than in their entire family...
At this moment, a strange thought popped into Yasaku's head: "Who are the real Dragon Tamers here?"
Naoki, on the other hand, didn't notice Yasaku's reaction. His attention had been on the Eevee eggs, and hearing Naoki's departure, he politely invited him to stay a bit longer.
"So soon? Won't you stay for a cup of tea before you leave?"
Naoki snapped back to reality and realized that it was already getting late.
"No need, I have some other matters to attend to. I should get going. Thank you for your hospitality," Naoki replied.
"Alright, if you have things to do," Zhishu said, not wanting to keep him any longer. He bid farewell with a simple "Take care."
Naoki boarded the airborne taxi and left the ranch, leaving Zhishu alone, staring at the pile of Eevee eggs on the grass.
"Ai Yi?!"
Ai Guanshi, Zhishu's younger sister, emerged from the room, intending to head to the Pokemon Tavern to organize some ingredients. She was startled to see the sudden appearance of numerous eggs on the ranch.
Her exclamation attracted a crowd of Pokemon, including Frost Mama Nidoqueen, Mudkip, Haxorus, Axew, Espeon, Glaceon, and more. They all gathered around, astonished by the sight of the eggs.
"Umm... these eggs were brought by a gentleman who asked me to take care of them. They're all Eevee eggs," Zhishu explained, seeing the confused expressions on the Pokemon's faces.
Hearing this, the Pokemon reacted in various ways.
Frost Mama Nidoqueen and Mudkip were bewildered, realizing that each egg meant another Eevee. They felt surrounded by the prospect of so many Eevees.
The Haxorus and Axew, on the other hand, were curious about the unhatched eggs. They flew up and circled the eggs, occasionally sniffing them with their big noses and pressing their ears against the shells to listen for any sounds from within.
Glaceon's face wore an expression of shock, as if it couldn't believe what it was seeing.
What was going on... how could there be so many Eevees?
Did that mean seven more Eevees would be vying for Zhishu's attention and affection? In that instant, Glaceon felt like the sky was falling, and the world had turned dark.
Espeon, on the other hand, didn't seem too concerned. Its ears twitched, and it quietly walked forward to observe these eggs of its own kind.
"Alright, alright, let's bring these Eevee eggs inside for now!" Zhishu waved his hand, signaling for the Pokemon to start moving the eggs.
Together, they carried the eggs into the house and placed them on the bed in the incubation room upstairs.
Staring at the multitude of Eevee eggs, Zhishu felt a headache coming on.
While he was happy to have collected a sufficient number of Eevees, the sudden influx of so many eggs made him worry about his ability to care for them all.
Zhishu could already envision the scene of seven newly hatched Eevee babies clinging to him, demanding milk and cuddles.
Was he going to become the father of this Eevee family?
No, he would need help from the other Pokemon! Zhishu turned to the approaching Glaceon and Espeon, his expression serious as he addressed them, "From now on, you two will be the leaders of these Eevees. Glaceon, you will be the big sister, and Espeon, you will be the second sister. I'll need your help in taking care of this new group of Eevees!"
"Bu yi?!"
