Chapter 608: Shizuru's Class
Chapter 608: Shizuru's Class
Despite her curiosity, Bai Lei Ya didn't immediately seek help from the Trainer named Shizuru.
It was better to first understand the situation and see if he believed in the contents of the Crimson Violet Tome. It would be embarrassing if it turned out to be a misunderstanding.
After a brief introduction to the teachers, Principal Sy Lan chuckled and said, "Alright, that's it for now. You can come to the academy for class at this time next week."
At that moment, the Director of Instruction reminded him, "Principal, you haven't introduced the new teacher to the students yet!"
"Oh, right! I almost forgot about that!" Principal Sy Lan tapped his head. "Let's go, I'll take you to greet the students!"
"Okay," Shizuru nodded, indicating that it was fine.
The two left the faculty office, walked down a long corridor, turned a corner, and arrived at the entrance to a row of classrooms.
Following Principal Sy Lan, Shizuru listened as he introduced, "This is the classroom where theory lessons are usually held. The first floor is for first-year students, the second floor for second-year students, and the third floor for third-year students. Each grade has four classes."
"Although it sounds like a lot, it might be challenging to manage in one morning. However, to save time, we've arranged for your class to be held in a large lecture hall. Students from the second and third years will come to listen to your lecture."
Shizuru: "..."
Principal Sy Lan was certainly maximizing his utilization.
"The students have already gone to the classroom to wait. It's on the fourth floor, let's go!" Sy Lan said.
The two climbed the stairs, and soon arrived at the large lecture hall as described by Principal Sy Lan.
Principal Sy Lan asked Shizuru to wait outside for a moment while he went in to inform the students. Then, he would come back for him.
Shizuru nodded, indicating that he understood, as he was familiar with this procedure.
So, Principal Sy Lan stepped into the classroom.
As he entered, the students in the classroom quickly quieted down, all eyes turning towards the podium.
However, a few students continued whispering among themselves.
"Hey, Nali, did you hear? It seems like we have a new teacher at school today!"
A girl named Nali adjusted her glasses, remaining silent for a moment before calmly reminding her friend, "Danyu, Principal Sy Lan is speaking. It's impolite for us to whisper here, and it's wasting everyone's time."
Danyu pouted and propped her face on her hand, sitting in her seat and gazing out the window with boredom. Listening to lectures together was so uninteresting!
On the podium, Principal Sy Lan smiled at the students and said, "I believe you've all received the news in advance. Today, our school will welcome the addition of a new teacher."
As soon as he finished speaking, the classroom erupted in a buzz.
"A new teacher?"
"What kind of new teacher will it be..."
"I have no idea, but it seems like we're currently lacking in breeding teachers. Could it be that the principal specifically found an exceptional Pokemon breeder?"
The students couldn't help but start speculating.
"Regarding this new teacher, I think many of you might have heard the rumors about him," Principal Sy Lan said, intentionally leaving them hanging.
It wasn't until the students below couldn't hold back their curiosity that he finally continued, "Some say he's a farmer who works in the countryside."
"Others say he's a legendary Trainer whose skills surpass even the Champion, and even legendary Pokemon are captivated by him."
"He runs a ranch and has set up various trials within it, allowing passing Trainers to challenge themselves and improve their skills."
"His reputation has spread throughout the entire region, and even Trainers who haven't embarked on their journeys yet greatly admire him."
"He's from the Paldea Region and is known as the 'Strongest' by the local Trainers—Mr. Shizuru!"
After hearing this, Shizuru: "..."
Help! This was so embarrassing!
At this moment, Principal Sy Lan turned excitedly towards the door, gesturing for Shizuru to enter while leading the applause.
Shizuru felt a tingling sensation on his scalp. He steeled himself and stepped into the classroom, instantly feeling countless gazes upon him.
He walked to Principal Sy Lan's side and nodded towards the students below, saying, "Hello everyone, I'm Shizuru. From now on, I'll be teaching you methods for breeding Pokemon and battle knowledge."
Upon hearing this name, Danyu, who had been boredly looking out the window, immediately turned her head. She stared at the familiar figure on the podium, her mouth hanging open in disbelief.
Nali, who was usually calm, was now wide-eyed with surprise.
It was that Trainer!
Suddenly, Nali noticed her friend's expression.
It was clear that the person she recognized was someone she knew.
Nali maintained her composure and asked, "Danyu, do you know him?"
"I-I-I know him! Of course I do!" Danyu's eyes lit up with excitement.
She never expected to see Mr. Shizuru here at the Blueberry Academy!
It had been several years since their last meeting.
During this time, Danyu and Utsu had started attending the Blueberry Academy, but unfortunately, they didn't have much free time, or else they would have definitely visited Mr. Shizuru and Ghoul Pom in the Paldea Region.
Wait a minute!
Is Mr. Shizuru here to teach at their academy?! Danyu suddenly realized.
Overcome with excitement, Danyu even waved enthusiastically, greeting Shizuru.
Shizuru and Principal Sy Lan immediately noticed this.
The two looked up, and when Shizuru recognized the figure, he froze in place.
It's...Danyu?!
He clearly remembered the incident from a few years ago when he went to Beishang Village for agricultural exchange and met Danyu and Utsu.
But how did Danyu end up at the Blueberry Academy?
Principal Sy Lan also looked surprised at Shizuru's expression.
"Do you know that child?" he asked.
Shizuru nodded, "I had an agricultural exchange with Beishang Village before, and that child's hometown is Beishang Village."
"Oh, I see!" Principal Sy Lan suddenly understood, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Fate is indeed quite intriguing!"
At that moment, word of Shizuru's arrival quickly spread among the students.
The rural rancher, the farmer, the Champion Trainer, the hidden boss of the Paldea Region, the man who had captured many Legendary Pokemon...
When all these titles were attributed to one person, it made his identity shrouded in mystery.
Such a formidable figure was now invited to be their teacher!
"Teacher Shizuru, when do you plan to come and teach us?"
The students, who initially weren't looking forward to this class and even disliked the extra lesson, suddenly changed their attitude and became eager for the upcoming class.
After all, he was a Champion Trainer! A formidable existence on par with the Unova League Champion, Alder!
Shizuru looked at the student who spoke and smiled, "Next week, I'll be here to teach you."
"That's right, Teacher Shizuru has his own affairs to attend to, and he can only spare half a day each week. You must make good use of that time, understand?"
"What? It's that long?" The students felt a sense of disappointment.
It's not just the duration, but the fact that it's only half a day...
Principal Sy Lan said, "Teacher Shizuru has a ranch and a newborn baby to take care of, and it took a lot of effort to arrange for him to teach you for half a day!"
Hearing this, the students felt that half a day was already quite good.
Shizuru looked at the children with surprise; it seemed like they were eagerly anticipating his lesson.
He paused for a moment, then leaned over and whispered a few words to Principal Sy Lan.
After listening, Principal Sy Lan's eyes lit up, and after giving some instructions to the students, he left the classroom.
The classroom was now left with only Shizuru and the group of students.
Amidst their puzzled and curious gazes, Shizuru slowly spoke,
"Since everyone is looking forward to my class next week, today, I'll use this time to have a brief chat with all of you."
"What do you think is the relationship between humans and Pokemon?"
"Partners!" a student replied.
Shizuru nodded and looked at the others, asking, "Anything else?"
"Friends!" another voice chimed in.
"That's right."
"Family!"
Shizuru followed the voice and saw Danyu, who was visibly excited.
"Danyu's answer is also correct," Shizuru smiled and nodded at her.
Hearing this, Danyu was thrilled. Yes! Teacher Shizuru still remembered her!
"There's no fixed answer to this question. Unbeknownst to us, Pokemon have become an indispensable part of our lives. They spend more time with us than our parents, spouses, or children."
"From the moment we meet them, until we grow old and leave this world."
Hearing these words, the students below couldn't help but contemplate.
Shizuru smiled slightly, then shifted the topic.
"Training Pokemon is not just about intense training and physical exercise. Strengthening the bond between you is also very important."
"Your bond is also a form of power."
"As your relationship deepens, Pokemon may sometimes persist in battles to avoid upsetting you, or resist falling asleep when hit by Sleep Powder."
"So, I hope you all treat your Pokemon companions well. That's the first lesson I want to teach you."
As the students contemplated his words, Shizuru nodded at them and then turned to leave the classroom.
It was already late afternoon, and after finishing their tour of Blueberry Academy, it was time for him to return to the ranch to look after the Pokemon and Little Tree.
As for the rest, he'd save it for the next official class!
Shizuru bid farewell to Principal Bai Lei Ya and rode Gogoat back to the ranch.
Not long after his departure, in the staff room, Bai Lei Ya once again submitted her application to enter the Paldea Crater through her computer to the Partida League.
At the same time, at the Partida League headquarters...
Xin Li looked at the application on the computer screen and paused for a moment. She then spoke to Ye Ci, who was sitting next to her:
"Miss Bai Lei Ya has submitted another request to enter the Paldea Crater."
"Hmm?" Ye Ci was a bit surprised. "Hasn't she given up yet?"
In fact, Bai Lei Ya had been applying to enter the Paldea Crater for quite some time.
As a descendant of Hei Ze, Ye Ci didn't mind Bai Lei Ya entering the Paldea Crater for exploration.
However, the issue was that the Partida League was currently collaborating with Dr. Aurene and Dr. Futo.
The two doctors had not yet planned to reveal the existence of Paradox Pokemon.
Under these circumstances, if outsiders were to enter and explore, they would discover the secret research being conducted by Dr. Aurene and Dr. Futo deep within Zone Zero.
As part of their collaboration, Ye Ci and the Partida League had agreed to help them keep this matter hidden.
Ye Ci sighed helplessly, "It's a bit of a headache." Then, he said, "As before, reject Miss Bai Lei Ya's application. As for the reason, just say that the crater is extremely dangerous, and only Champion-level Trainers are allowed to enter."
Ye Ci had met Bai Lei Ya before, and through their interactions, he understood that she was currently a teacher at Blueberry Academy, not a Trainer, and didn't possess much battle prowess.
"Yes!"
Xin Li wasn't too surprised.
She nodded and then responded again.
[Partida League: We are sorry, Ms. Bai Lei Ya, but the Paldea Crater is extremely dangerous, with numerous hazardous Pokemon residing within. For your safety, the Partida League will deny entry to anyone who hasn't reached Champion-level strength.]

At 3:00 PM, Gogoat landed in the ranch.
Shizuru dismounted and checked the time on his Lotad Phone.
3:02... They had left Blueberry Academy at 2:40 PM, and the trip only took twenty minutes, so it wasn't too far.
Everything was as usual at the ranch.
The weather was warm and pleasant, with the afternoon sun shining brightly over the entire ranch.
Even the Pokemon that usually stayed indoors were out, lounging on the grass and soaking up the sun.
Several Eevee were comfortably exposing their little bellies.
Qi Shu brought out the cradle and let Baby and Larvesta sunbathe inside while she sat beside them, gently rocking the cradle to lull Baby and Larvesta to sleep.
The Pokemon gathered around them, creating a lively atmosphere.
Emperor Flame, Thunder, and Water Lord, the three large cats, were lying nearby, keeping an eye on the future Rainbow Hero while enjoying this rare moment of relaxation.
Upon seeing Shizuru return, Qi Shu immediately looked over.
To avoid disturbing Baby and the Pokemon napping nearby, she mouthed, "Back already? How did it go?"
Shizuru nodded and then went to the living room to fetch a stool and sat down on the grass.
"It went well. Blueberry Academy is truly spectacular, and the Ecosystem Egg... I mean, the Ecosystem Dome has over two hundred different species of Pokemon living within it!" He couldn't help but share his experiences from the day.
"That many?" Qi Shu was slightly taken aback.
"That's why I said it's spectacular! Even the ranch and the World Tree combined don't have that many Pokemon!"
"Principal Sy Lan said I could freely catch the Pokemon inside. Next time I go, I'll definitely take a good look around the Ecosystem Dome!"
Qi Shu: "Hey, we already have so many Pokemon here. If we have more, we won't be able to take care of them all!"
Gogoat, standing nearby, nodded in agreement.
"Ah, come on!" Shizuru: "..." He just really liked those adorable Pokemon!
Pokemon like Alolan Weavile, Pyroar, Tauros, Floatzel, Gengar... they were all cute, and the ranch would be even livelier with them around!
