Pokémon: An Encounter with You

Chapter 150 Sacred Diamond

"You are right." Minister Zuan said in a serious tone, confirming Shi Qiu's conclusion.

"The sacred diamond has a lifespan, and it requires the energy of each generation of Master Diancie to maintain it."

"So every time the previous Princess Diancie leaves, the new Princess will be responsible for creating new sacred diamonds."

"Before this aged sacred diamond passes away."

“This is the eternal path of the mining country.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Diancie, who was high up, raised her little hand, and pink diamonds began to appear all over her body.

Gradually, as Diancie's energy surged, a sacred diamond of the same size, only a few sizes smaller than the current one, was condensed.

However, the diamond only lasted for a few breaths before Diancie became somewhat exhausted and was forced to stop.

The sacred diamond that had just condensed also dissipated with the wind.

The little diamonds were whispering among themselves, and even the Minister of Diamonds sighed.

Diancie lowered her head in a gloomy mood and carefully looked at the expressions of the little diamonds, including the Diamond Minister.

"(Failed again...but the princess has tried her best.)"

"(The princess has been trying for more than 300 days in a row. She looks so tired. Should she take a few days off?)"

"(Princess, don't lose heart. You will be able to do it one day!)"

Diancie moved closer to the Diamond Minister: "Diamond Minister..."

This seemingly serious and stern little diamond seemed to be familiar with the process and comforted her with some words that Shi Qiu thought were just clichés.

And it was obvious that Minister Zuan's real attention was all on Shi Qiu and his group.

Shi Qiu: “……”

He coughed twice in a low voice, turned his head as if trying to cover his ears and steal the bell, and concentrated on helping the foam squirrel to tidy up its hair.

"Emissary of Lord Xerneas, please give us the direction to move forward."

Minister Zuan hesitated for a long time, then suddenly spoke in a solemn and earnest voice and bowed deeply to them.

Shi Qiu was startled, and quickly dodged to the side, saying helplessly:

"I really don't know any Xerneas. You may have mistaken me for someone who possesses the power of Evergreen."

He released life energy, and a light green light emanated from his hands.

"The life energy I release is more grass-like in nature, and is gentler and duller. Xerneas's life energy, on the other hand, is fairy-like, and more active and agile."

"The best I can do is try to help you from my perspective."

"...The power of Viridian?"

"So that's how it is..." Minister Zuan lowered his head, as if he finally believed it.

Diancie stepped forward, was baptized by the power of Evergreen, and regained her energy.

"Thank you for your help, I'll try again!" Diancie said after bowing and expressing her gratitude.

After saying that, the fairy energy in his body rose again, and he used his own unique skill, Diamond Storm.

Shi Qiu was standing nearby this time. After a brief perception, he nodded: "Sure enough, compared to the original sacred diamond, this one has enough fairy energy, but it lacks the [fairy life]."

He infused it with the power of Evergreen.

Instantly, the entire diamond emitted a brighter light than before, and it even materialized directly.

"Success!" Diancie said excitedly.

Shi Qiu shook his head: "No, I failed."

As soon as this small sacred diamond was created, its vitality began to dissipate madly, fading a thousand times faster than that of the surrounding diamonds.

A minute later it dimmed and disintegrated.

The disappointment after having hope became even more obvious. The little diamonds looked visibly depressed, and even the Minister of Diamonds sighed.

"As expected, only Master Xerneas can help the princess..."

Why are you so obsessed with Xerneas? Because of his fairy aura?

But Diancie's fairy attribute energy is enough.

[Race: Diancie]

If Shi Qiu remembered correctly, in the previous life's movie, Diancie grew up completely by her own power and created a sacred diamond.

"How did you know that Xerneas could help Diancie?"

It can't be like in the movie, where this Diamond Minister was also saved by X-Deer when he was young.

It was Princess Diancie who answered Shi Qiu: "The sacred diamonds of all generations contain the inheritance of all the previous generations of Diancie."

"Not to mention that Xerneas-sama has appeared from the first generation of Diancie-sama to the modern times."

"Most importantly, we have clearly obtained the memory information of the 24th generation Diancie-sama being helped by Master Xerneas in his inheritance."

Shi Qiu was silent.

He felt that this help might have only helped the Mining Nation resist the attack of Yveltal, rather than the leap evolution of the Diancie race.

"I think that you are the only one who can give birth to fairy life." Shi Qiu whispered to Diancie.

"I am the only one who can give birth to fairy life?" Diancie pointed her little finger at herself and repeated in confusion.

Shi Qiu nodded.

This is a training that belongs to Diancie herself. She must have her own deep understanding of life.

Diancie fell into deep thought about Shi Qiu's words, and the following playfulness became much less intense.

Although Shi Qiu took the initiative to give up the identity of "Xerneas Envoy", the attitude of Minister Diamond towards them did not change much.

“That’s because your aura is so unique.” Diancie whispered.

She moved a little closer to Shi Qiu with reserve, her big, beautiful eyes like gems filled with pure and innocent joy.

“When I’m with you, I feel very relaxed, as if all the pressure has turned into motivation. Negative emotions disappear in an instant!”

Diancie said happily.

If she wasn't afraid that Minister Zuan would see her and give her a lecture, she would have thrown away her reserve and gotten very close to this human boy.
