Pokémon: An Encounter with You

Chapter 468 Lost Ruins

At this moment, Manaphy, who had been ignored, couldn't help it and jumped from Shi Qiu's head to the table.

Satisfied that the Rotom system and Shi Qiu's attention had finally returned to him, Manaphy pointed at himself.

"(Shi Qiu, I want to fight!!)"

Shi Qiu: “……”

There was silence.

The aqua-blue elf clattered closer, blocking the ruins information projected by the Rotom system. It stretched out its little hand and grabbed Shi Qiu's face without any hesitation.

"(You said it! There will be fights when we come to the Pokémon Center!)"

Xiao Pacai, it's your turn to go on stage, will you beat others or be beaten?

Shi Qiu was complaining in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface. He just put on a helpless look: "Didn't I say that the battle field in the Pokémon Center is empty, and no one is setting up a challenge field anymore..."

Manaphy was itching with hatred.

It is an elf that is proficient in the mind, how could it not hear the crickets in Shi Qiu’s heart?

How could Shi Qiu not know that it couldn't hear?

Manaphy, who was hinted at subtly, didn't fall for this soft and hard approach: "(Who do you say is Xiao Pa Cai! Huh!? Who is? ! ! I am the Prince of the Sea who inherited the Crown of the Sea! I can beat ten people like you!)"

"Okay, okay, let's not just beat ten, a hundred won't be a problem, right?"

Half at most.

"(you!)"

“Come to think of it…” Shi Qiu broke free from Manaphy’s little hand that was pinching his face, supported his chin with one hand, and looked at it with interest.

"In my impression, the priesthood of the Canghai Prince has its own particularity, and it requires fulfilling the obligation to protect the sea."

"Don't you need to follow the Sea Temple to the sea?"

After the four secret islands were connected, the Temple of the Sea quietly disappeared from under the island paradise.

At the same time, Manaphy fully gained the power and authority bestowed by the Crown of the Sea.

He and N were both ready to say goodbye to Manaphy.

But who knew that this little guy could not only pretend nothing happened and stay here, but also show no signs of backlash.

"Don't play dumb." Shi Qiu supported his face with his left hand, bent his right hand, and gently flicked Manaphy's little head, "I don't believe that these things are not in your inherited memory."

Even Fiona has inherited memories, not to mention the pure fantasy elf, Manaphy.

"(Because you are the one the ocean loves 0v0.)"

Shi Qiu: ... ...Ah?

The ocean that Manaphy guards is the ocean of the elven world, which disappeared long ago with the destruction of the world.

The ocean of this world has nothing to do with Him.

"(You have been recognized by the Crown of the Sea. Therefore, only the open and unopened sea areas in the secret realm are my responsibility.)"

The "power blessed by the ocean" that both Gulis and Naz had felt before was the best certification.

Before this, Shi Qiu had always ignored the so-called "power of the ocean" in his body. He always thought that it was a characteristic bestowed by the "Song of the Ocean" set in the system set.

Surprisingly, it was what he already owned.

Not knowing what he was thinking, Shi Qiu was slightly absent-minded.

“(…Don’t hate me.)”

Suddenly, he heard Manaphy say this in a muffled voice.

Shi Qiu was surprised: "When did I hate you? Little Prince, I asked these questions because I am afraid that you will be swallowed by your power. I am not chasing you away again. Of course I..."

“(You hate the ocean.)”

Shi Qiu was interrupted and frowned.

"(The ocean has sensed it, so it doesn't dare to show up.)" Manaphy's eyes lit up with blue light, and the red gem on his chest sparkled.

Among the many special powers, only the "Power of the Ocean" blessed by the Crown of the Sea seems to have never shown its power.

Shi Qiu understood.

What he hates is not the ocean, but Kyogre of the ocean.

It was the deep hatred towards Kyogre that was sensed by Manaphy, and then, it was sensed by the "Ocean" which was closely connected to Manaphy.

The faint smile on his face disappeared completely. He put away his hand that was supporting his chin and sat up straight. He looked seriously and earnestly at the little elf on the table who had closed his eyes as if waiting for the verdict.

After a while, Manaphy closed his mind power, silently closed his eyes and waited for Shi Qiu to drive him away, then he felt the boy's hand gently patting his head.

Shi Qiu's voice was calm but serious: "I will never hate you. You have nothing to do with my hatred. You are a victim."

Manaphy opened his eyes and looked at Shi Qiu carefully.

Maybe some people will think that Shi Qiu is being pretentious, and maybe some people will think that Shi Qiu is making a big deal out of nothing.

However, his heart bled when he saw in Fiona's mental vision how the Thorn Dragon and Greninja were turned into lifeless stone statues in the burning energy column.

He hated Groudon and Kyogre very seriously and persistently.

"I don't hate the ocean either."

If he hated the ocean, he wouldn't have bottled up his hatred and allowed it to take root and grow painfully deep in his heart all the time.

It was because he knew that if Groudon and Kyogre were to die, the continent and the ocean would definitely become strange in an instant, so he never tried to track down the traces of the two ancient gods.

Because he was not sure if he could control himself from taking action if these two people really appeared in front of him.

"So don't worry, Manaphy."

Shi Qiu smiled again.

He will not let hatred taint his entire life, but he will not forget it, and cannot forget it.

“There’s a place I’ve walked out of, but I’m not going far away.”

…………

…………

Ten o'clock in the morning.

Shi Qiu propped up Manaphy on his head, holding a mobile phone in his hand, looking at the path displayed by the Rotom system.

"This place is the lost ruins at 8-658 Road in District ."

"It is said to be an abandoned relic. An exploration team organized by the official alliance has conducted several investigations, but they found nothing except some ancient books, and they are of very low value."

"It is just that due to its uniqueness, it has been attracting many traveling trainers and adventurers to explore here. It can be regarded as a semi-public ruins."

No wonder there's no one guarding it.

This kind of place, which is of low value and useless like chicken ribs, will indeed be secretly packaged by the alliance as the best adventure place.
