Chapter 63 Enemy? friend?
Chapter 63 Enemy? friend?
In the evening, the seven of them gathered around the dinner table. Heaven knows who came up with this idea, probably Qin Ni, who actually ate hot pot in the middle of summer. Luckily, Qi Hao was there to provide some relief.
"You know what, you really have to admit, it's really refreshing with the class monitor around." Tianshui picked up a piece of steaming hot meat in front of her, stuffed it into her mouth, and then leaned against Qihao, enjoying the contrast of hot and cold.
"Here, good brother, I've heated some up for you too." Tianshui directly put some food from his bowl into Wan Xingqing's bowl.
"Thanks," Wan Xingqing replied, and then... then the meat disappeared, and the high collar of her clothes wasn't pulled down, but she still managed to eat it. What a skill!
"Wow, amazing!" Qin Ni, always eager for drama, quickly stopped Li Linfeng, who was frantically piling food onto his plate. "Linfeng, don't grab it! I put the mushrooms in there!"
“What’s wrong with eating some of yours! I’m, oh, I’m not the strongest now, my dad is the champion!” Li Linfeng shoved the edible food into his mouth in one go, not giving him a chance to take it back.
"You bastard!" Then Qin Ni took out some ice jelly and cold noodles and went to eat them. "You guys eat the hot ones, I'll eat the cold ones."
"It's okay, you can have mine." N pushed the bowl to Qin Ni, which was filled with hot food. He really was... I'm so sad. After all, what kind of bad person can someone who likes Ferris wheels be?
"Don't worry, I have more." Ma Ling'er arrived like a hero, carrying two large baskets of ingredients out of the kitchen. One basket was for them, and the other was for Qi Hao.
Qi Hao cooked a separate pot and showed off his food like crazy.
None of the elves were particularly large, so they were simply left to eat in the courtyard.
Li Linfeng's Salamence, Garchomp, and Deino are all pseudo-legendary Dragon-type Pokémon. Hopefully, he won't get completely destroyed when he encounters Azurri with the Huge Power ability and Playful Nature.
Q-boy, Swampert, and Pelipper from Tianshui are definitely heading towards becoming an extreme rain team.
Wan Xingqing's Blaziken, Torkoal, and Magmar are just as extreme as Tianshui's, but they happen to have a good relationship.
Soroark of N, Tropical Dragon, Daruma Baboon, caused by the world line?
Ma Ling'er appeared with the same Lollipop, Explosive Mosquito, and Pheromosa as in the last battle.
Oh wait, the pheromones aren't outside, they're stuck to Ma Ling'er inside. Qi Hao just wants to know what it feels like to have a cockroach the size of a person sticking to you... Pheromones don't seem so bad, do they?
Little Iron and Lollipop were playing together, while A-Ren sat quietly to the side. Yi-Yi didn't even come out; she was playing with a model in her Poké Ball.
"Qihao, if you're free tonight, could you come to my room for a bit? There are some things I'd like to say." Ma Ling'er handed Qihao a glass of soda, which he took and downed in one gulp.
"Okay, that's exactly what I was thinking of doing." Qi Hao swallowed the last bite of his rice. Li Linfeng and the others had also finished eating and went home.
N and Qin Ni went straight back to their room.
"Why are they walking so fast?" Qi Hao helped Ling'er tidy up the table while Ling'er was washing dishes in the kitchen.
“They went back to study. They still need to maintain their grades for the unified exam in a week.” Ma Ling’er put down the bowl in her hand. “You don’t actually need to help me. I can clean up very quickly.”
"Come on, are you the class monitor or am I? If I let you do everything, wouldn't it be irresponsible of me to be the class monitor? By the way, what are we reviewing?" By the time Qi Hao finished tidying up the table, Ma Ling'er was almost done too.
"Let's go, let's talk in my room." Ma Ling'er opened the door to her room, and what came into Qi Hao's eyes was a huge assembly table-like machine, followed by the bed. That thing was too big, taking up most of the room, and the arm armor from last time was placed on it. It seemed that Ma Ling'er was making improvements to it.
Ma Ling'er turned around and sat down in the chair in front of the workbench, facing Qi Hao directly. She pointed to another stool next to her, indicating that Qi Hao should sit down and have a proper chat. "Since I brought it up first, I'll get straight to the point."
He then snapped his fingers, and a purple void appeared. "Necrozma, come out, I've brought the person."
A dark figure emerged from the void, over two meters tall and resembling black crystal—it was Necrozma.
The Poké Ball on Qi Hao's chest glowed blue, and then Kyurem shrank and jumped out to prevent it from collapsing the house.
"It really is you, you hateful black thing!" Kyurem opened his mouth as if to blast a frozen world at him.
Necrozma held out her hand. "There are other people here. Do you think there will be any good land left here if we start fighting?"
Upon hearing this, Kyurem swallowed the Frozen World back, as if it were broken ice. "So what are you trying to do? Shouldn't you be obsessed with swallowing Solgarleo and the others?"
"Hehehehe, don't worry, that day will come, you don't need to worry about it." Necrozma was clearly an old underworld elf. "But you, why are you speaking properly now? If you can't go back to your old self, you should be even crazier than me, hehehehe."
Oh my god, is Kyurem going to take this lying down? He got so angry that he turned evil, transformed into his dark form, and charged forward.
Qi Hao grabbed Kyurem's tail, his expression urgent: "Dad! You can't do that! If you go into the Ultimate Dimension, you won't be able to get out!"
"You bastard, just you wait! When you get out, you'll see if I treat you to a meal at Frozen World!"
“Alright, let’s get back to the main topic, Qihao, do you have a dream?” Ma Ling’er pushed up her glasses and continued, “Do you know that more than four hundred years ago, there were no elves on Earth? Because of the appearance of elves, the class system, national defense, education, economy, technological development, and laws all changed. And I, Ma Ling’er, have a dream.”
"It's about sending all the Pokémon back to where they came from. So, what about you? Will you choose to stop me, or join me?" Ma Ling'er's purple eyes stared directly at Qi Hao, Necrozma's ultimate aura emanating from her, making the space feel oppressive. Ma Ling'er's gaze became scrutinizing, and Qi Hao was momentarily stunned. Then, Kyurem flapped its wings, instantly dispersing the purple ultimate aura. (Ling'er's eyes really are purple.)
Qi Hao also came to his senses, his blue eyes looking directly at the other person: "I have no dreams, but I can protect other people's dreams, and I can also help other people fulfill their dreams."
"And what about mine? Even if it's a dream like mine, can you really say it out loud?" Ma Ling'er looked at Qi Hao with great interest, eagerly awaiting Qi Hao's answer.
Qi Hao shook his head: "I'm sorry, I'm not as open-minded as you think. The 'others' I'm referring to are just the few I've thought of myself."
“I won’t help you, but I won’t stop you either. Although I have a feeling we will eventually have a battle, it’s not now, since you haven’t done anything unforgivable yet.”
"Before this, you were just my classmate, and I was just your class monitor." Qi Hao turned and walked towards his room, his back to him. "You said you were sending the elves back and didn't intend to hurt them, right?"
"Right? Hehehe, hahahahaha!" Ma Ling'er pushed up her glasses with one hand and laughed. "Maybe. Thank you for your understanding, class monitor. At least we're still classmates until I finish my plan."
Kyurem followed behind Qi Hao, then returned directly to the Poké Ball on Qi Hao's chest. "Has your dream changed? Heh, looks like you've grown up."
Back in his room, Qi Hao had a headache: "Damn it! I forgot to ask Ling'er what she needed to review! Oh well, I might as well just go through everything."
"Are you ready?!" Qi Hao brought the elves to the training ground the next day.
"Jin! (All done!)"
"Blade. (OK.)"
"Cloth! (Let me rub it a little more!)"
Qi Hao scooped up Yi Yi and gently put down the tools in her hands. "Stop working on the model! You have exams in a few days! If you don't concentrate, I'll pet you until you're bald!"
"No! (No to that kind of thing!)" Yi Yi begged for mercy immediately. With Qi Hao's energy, he could easily rub her all night long.
"Then let's start training. By the way, Xiao Tie, you guys come over here, I have something to say."
