Mind Master of the Elf World

Chapter 498 Little Chrysanthemum: I'm your fan! (Seeking monthly votes!)

April 12, Saturday, sunny.

"If you didn't know better, you'd think you'd arrived in Miare City."

Jinghe, who had just arrived in Zijin City, couldn't help but smack his lips and sigh as he looked at the aerial view advertisement of Zijin City on the roadside.

Zijing City wasn't originally like this, but thanks to the efforts of Grandpa Tiexuan, it was transformed into a ring-shaped city similar to Miare City in the Carlos region.

In the center of the city stands a tower called the "Corner Tower," similar to the Prism Tower in Luminaria City, symbolizing the friendship between Luminaria City in the Carlos region and Mauville City in the Hoenn region.

When something happens in Violet City, the Corner Tower will emit a bright light alarm.

"Gengga! Gengga!"

Gengar called out excitedly.

Now that we're in Zijin City, we should head straight to the Zijin Food Plaza; our stomachs are already itching to get there.

Hearing the chubby little purple-skinned boy's shouts, Jing He smiled helplessly.

"Let's go."

Hop on your bicycle and head to the Purple Violet Food Plaza.

After the Devon Company successfully built the Green Tunnel, the journey from Kanaz to Violet City became much easier. There was no need to take a detour or wade through mountains and rivers; one could simply pass through the tunnel to reach Violet, making the trip much more convenient.

This tunnel will also further stimulate interaction between the two major cities in the Hoenn region and promote development.

This is also why the Green Tunnel had to be built in the first place.

Fortunately, at Jinghe's suggestion, the wild Pokémon in the Green Mountain Range were properly taken care of.

Perhaps because of Xiaoju's fashion show, there were quite a few people in Mauville City, and you could see trainers or ordinary people with Pokémon everywhere.

A bull riding a Dodori to work, a postman with a Delibird, an old man walking a hyena, and a twin-tailed girl hopping around while holding a Pichu.
We cycled slowly, enjoying the scenery of Zijin City.

Although Violet City and Kanaz City are not far apart, they have completely different urban styles.

After cycling all the way to the Mauville Food Street that Gengar had been longing to visit, the street was covered with promotional posters for Little Daisy's fashion show.

It's clear that the food court's business has improved considerably since Xiaoju'er arrived.

but
These things have little to do with Jinghe.

After putting the bicycle back into Gengar's belly, he summoned the little guys and began to enjoy the food.

"Boss, takoyaki, please!" As Jing He approached a takoyaki shop, she was about to call out her order when she glanced at Gengar drooling beside her and Larvitar standing on tiptoe.
"Ten servings, please."

"okay!"

The boss happily agreed and quickly called over his Pokémon Octopus Bucket to help.

Octopus bucket?
Grilled takoyaki?
Jinghe's expression was strange.

The octopus pieces in these takoyaki balls can't possibly be...
His gaze fell on the several bright red octopus legs in the octopus bucket.

Clearly, Jing He was overthinking it.

The reason for asking Octopus Barrel for help was because Octopus Barrel has many tentacles. One Pokémon is equivalent to three or four people. In no time, all ten servings of takoyaki that Jinghe ordered were ready.

Pour the sauce over the takoyaki and sprinkle with bonito flakes. The bonito flakes, as thin as paper or as thin as wood chips, curl up as soon as they come into contact with the hot takoyaki and sauce.

After Jinghe distributed the boxes to the little ones, she picked up a box herself and started eating with a toothpick.

have to say.

Takoyaki made in an octopus bucket. Just right.

And these takoyaki were just the first stop on Jinghe and his friends' food court trip.

"just!!"

Sure enough, after eating only a few, the master blacksmith set his sights on a cotton candy shop across the street.

Since they had decided to come and eat, Jinghe wouldn't complain about this being unhealthy or that not tasting good. The most important thing was to eat and drink what she wanted and have fun.

"Boss, ten skewers of cotton candy, please."

"Boss, ten village sandwiches, please."

"Boss, ten servings of glutinous rice balls, please."

"Boss, ten servings of Magnetic Pieces, please."

The so-called "small pekoyaki" is actually a round pancake made of eggs, water, and flour baked on a griddle, and then sprinkled with ingredients such as bonito flakes, onions, cabbage, mung bean sprouts, and pork.

It's essentially okonomiyaki, but the griddle is heated by the Magnemite shop, hence the name Magnemite okonomiyaki.

"Rotom, I think we can replicate this."

Jinghe suggested while eating the Magnetic Monster Yakitori, which she thought tasted pretty good.

“Loto.(PД`q。)·。'゜

Rotom covered his face.

We're already working like oxen and horses, and you want us to do even more?

Rotom channeled his grief and anger into power, taking a big bite out of the Magnemite.

Mmm, so delicious~
Before long, Jinghe and his friends were holding food in their hands, eating it in their mouths, and stuffing it into their bags, becoming an unmissable "big customer" in the food court!
It tastes good, but it costs a lot of money, Jinghe thought to himself.

But he didn't say.

Since we're already here, let's ignore the money issue for now, so as not to spoil the little ones' fun.

"I did my research before coming here. The most famous snack at Zijin Food Plaza is Zijin Mixed Noodles."

Jinghe took a bite of a glutinous rice ball, then a bite of a small glutinous rice cake, alternating between sweet and salty flavors – truly unique.

Seeing the little ones looking at him, he smiled and asked, "Who else can eat?"

shhhhh--

The little ones, all with food in their mouths, stopped talking and raised their hands in unison.

Jinghe nodded with tears in her eyes.

Sure enough, asking was pointless. If these little ones were allowed to eat freely, they could turn the entire food court upside down.

"Let's go."

quickly.

They arrived at a noodle shop with a large storefront and a lot of customers.

The place was packed with people; it didn't look like there were any seats left.

Therefore, many customers choose to take their food to go and then find an empty seat in the food court to eat.

"Jing He?"

At this time, a familiar voice came.

Follow the sound.

"Pony, the Heavenly King?"

Then I saw Bonnie, dressed in a lady's outfit and wearing a wide-brimmed hat that covered most of her face.

At this moment, Jinghe remembered that Bonnie seemed to be a regular at the Zijin Food Plaza, and her favorite restaurant was Zijin Mixed Noodles.

But
Isn't Bonnie the Heavenly King very busy?
How come you still have time to come here to buy noodles?

"Have you bought everything? Shall we go out to eat?" Bonnie invited with a smile.

"it is good."

Despite the large number of customers, the noodle shop was indeed very quick, and soon packed up all ten portions of Jinghe's food.

The two sat down at a public table in a corner of the food court.

The little ones can't wait to show off.

Gengar, in particular, loves noodles and other pasta dishes. He was tricked by Jinghe with a bucket of instant noodles back then.

The sound of "slurping" could be heard continuously.

Jinghe and Bonnie didn't say anything either, focusing on the mixed noodles first, as they wouldn't taste good if they got cold.

Not a moment.

"Phew—" Jing He let out a long sigh and drank a few mouthfuls of noodle soup.

It has to be admitted that there's a reason why this noodle shop is so popular; the mixed noodles really do taste great.

"Genga."

Gengar smacked its lips and stared longingly at Jinghe.

Seeing its expression, Jinghe knew exactly what it was up to, and waved her hand with a smile:
"go Go."

"哓GA!"

Gengar immediately stood up, waved its hand, and led the little guys back to the noodle shop.

One bowl of noodles isn't enough to eat!
At the same time, Bonnie, the Heavenly King, elegantly wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and said, "It seems you like it too."

Jing He smiled and said, "The taste is indeed quite good."

Seeing that Bonnie had finished eating, he asked, "Queen Bonnie, what are you doing?"

Bonnie clearly understood what he meant, gently rubbing her temples and giving him a slightly annoyed glare.

"It's all because of you shirking your responsibilities."

Jinghe felt ashamed and decided not to respond.

Moreover, he's neither one of the Four Heavenly Kings nor a high-ranking or senior executive in the alliance. What does he have to do with him? Jing He thought to himself.

"Xiao Ju'er's fashion show." Bonnie knew she couldn't blame Jing He, so she got back to the main topic.

Ok?
Jing He was slightly taken aback. "Is it because of this?"

Are the Four Heavenly Kings starting to take charge so quickly that they're even paying attention to a celebrity's runway performance?

That’s too scary!
There's too much to live!

However, Bonnie quickly offered an explanation: "It's for the Young Masters World Championship."

Jing He quickly understood the meaning behind her words and asked, "So... the event will be held in the Unova region?"

“Yes,” Bonnie replied.

Jinghe immediately realized. No wonder Xiaoju'er had come to Fengyuan to perform a fashion show. He had thought it was Grandpa Tiexuan's idea to organize an event to attract more people to Zijin City.

In retrospect, Xiaoju'er's fashion show was actually a promotion for the "Young Masters World Championship".

This explains why Bonnie came to Violet City because of this.

wrong.

Perhaps Bonney chose Mauville City as the location for the promotion, partly because Mauville City is located in the center of the Hoenn region with convenient transportation, making it easier for residents of other towns to come over.

On the other hand, it's probably so that they can take the opportunity to eat a bowl of noodles.
"Aren't you going to participate too? Don't you know it's being held in Unova?" Bonnie asked back.

Jing He chuckled awkwardly.

Although he wanted to participate, he hadn't really paid much attention to it; it was just that Genji said he had signed him up.

He figured that since he was just participating in a competition, there was no point in knowing so much; he could just arrive at the venue when the competition was about to start.

Jinghe thought to herself, "I haven't been to the United States region yet."

The Unova region is said to be based on America, and there are many similarities, such as Pokémon Hollywood and the American soldier appearance of Lt. Surge.

The Unova region is relatively far from Kanto, Johto, Sinnoh, and Hoenn, but is actually closer to the Alola region.

"The venue is in Flying Cloud City in the Unova region," Bonnie added.

Feiyun City?
As one of the largest cities in the Pokémon world, it is also a city where cultures blend together, including many things that have never been seen in other regions.

The two chatted for a while longer, mostly about the "Young Masters World Championship".

“Oh, right,” Bonnie said, as if she had just remembered something, “that Ghost’s giant submarine was acquired by the Devon Corporation.”

"German? Submarine?"

Jing He's brow twitched; she suddenly had a bad feeling.

It has been confirmed that Groudon is not sleeping on Mt. Chimney, so it is highly likely that it is sleeping in an underwater cave along with Kyogre.

However, the underwater cave is located in the deep sea, making it impossible for ordinary people to approach, and it is also protected by a very strong seal.

In Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire, Team Aqua built the submarine Deepsea 1 using the submarine technology of Devon Corporation.

The drill, powered by limitless energy, broke the seal on the underwater cave, awakening Groudon and Kyogre.
Never mind, Jinghe has already given up.

In the special episode, Team Magma and Team Aqua used a different method to awaken Groudon and Kyogre, which is different from the version in the anime.

Hard to guard against.

The key lies in the vermilion jewel and the indigo jewel.

"Whatever," Jinghe thought to herself, "I'll just wipe them all out with one Flying Dagger."

“Yes, so you’ll have a lot to show for it this time,” Bonnie said with a smile.

Devon is known for its deep pockets; they acquired a huge submarine, and Jinghe will inevitably get a share.

Of course, given the relationship between Devon and the Hoenn Alliance, Devon's contributions to the Hoenn Alliance and the entire Alliance, and their research direction in acquiring the submarine, it was destined that the acquisition price would not be high.

Even so, at least Devin paid for it, which makes Jinghe's benefits more realistic than leaving it to the league.

Giving money is a good thing!
"Let's go, shall I take you to meet Xiao Ju'er and Grandpa Tie Xuan?" Bonnie suggested.

See Xiaojuer?

"it is good."

He stood up, a hint of confusion in his eyes. "Why haven't Gengar and the others returned yet?"

Didn't you go to buy mixed noodles?
I've already finished talking to Bonnie, and they still haven't come back?

suddenly.

Jinghe's heart skipped a beat.

Oh no! Oh no!
He quickly got up and walked briskly towards the noodle shop, and then he discovered...
"This Gengar is amazing, it actually ate so much?"

"It's not just Gengar; Dragonite, Urshifu, and Larvitar are all very strong."

"If you ask me, the most amazing one is Larvitar. Its size is nothing compared to Gengar, Dragonite, and Urshifu, but its appetite is just as good."

"."

Listening to the discussions around her, Jinghe, who had squeezed into the crowd, looked ashen-faced.

I saw the little guys buried in "Kongwan Mountain".

Ice Nine-Tailed Fox, who has the smallest appetite, ate ten bowls!

A guy stood next to Gengar and the others, his eyes scanning the surroundings before settling on them closely, as if afraid they might run away.

Jinghe rubbed his forehead.

What should I do if I want to run away now?
Bonnie, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but chuckle when she saw this.

Teacher Jinghe's Pokémon are really quite interesting.

“Bonnie, the Heavenly King,” Jing He said in a low voice.

"Ok?"

"Hey, chatting with you caused the Pokémon to accidentally eat too much. Can you reimburse me for that?"

Bonnie the King: "."

"Genga."

Gengar wore a smirk—no, a fawning one.

Young Giras lowered his head and followed cautiously behind Gengar, feeling that Gengar's back was so majestic.

Everyone ate together, but Gengar carried the pot all by himself. What else could he be but the eldest brother?
In Gengar's words: As the leader, one must be prepared to take the blame!

Jinghe gave it a disgruntled look, but didn't say anything.

He only ate a few extra bowls of noodles, what could he possibly do to these little brats?
Aside from the slight financial strain, everything else is fine.

Seeing this, Gengar secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It knew Jinghe wouldn't say anything to us, hehe.

Purple Violet Dojo.

A dojo building with an earthen-yellow exterior and a huge golden lightning bolt mark on it.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

As soon as I entered the dojo, I heard a very cheerful and happy laugh, "Bonnie, Jinghe, you're here."

As a senior trainer, Tetsuya is Bonnie's predecessor and a veteran trainer of the same generation as Genji. His strength should not be underestimated.

"Old man."

"Master of the Iron Whirlwind Pavilion".

Bonnie greeted Jinghe.

“Jinghe, you don’t come to Violet City to play much even though you’re in Kanaz City. That kid Dianci always talks about you.”

Grandpa Tie Xuan is a typical E person, with an outgoing and familiar personality. He speaks as if he is quite familiar with Jing He.

It's just that Jinghe already knew the old man's temperament, otherwise she really wouldn't have been able to adapt quite well.

"I'll definitely do it next time," Jing He said earnestly.

"Good good."

Da da da--

Just then, the crisp sound of horses' hooves approached from afar.

Then a tall, slender girl with long blonde hair, wearing a novel headset, riding a lightning zebra came into view.

It is none other than Kiku, the gym leader of Raven Gym in the Unova region and the star of this fashion show!
"哓GA!"

Gengar exclaimed in surprise upon seeing Chrysanthemum.

We found one alive!

Little Chrysanthemum also turned her gaze to Gengar's voice. When she saw Jinghe, her eyes lit up immediately. She patted the Thunder Zebra beneath her, and its speed increased slightly as it approached the group.

Little Ju jumped off the Thunder Zebra's back, ran to Jing He, her cheeks slightly flushed, and exclaimed:

"Teacher Jinghe is alive and well!"

This posture is just like that of a girl who is a fan of a celebrity.

Ok?
Why do you look just like Gengar?

"Teacher Jinghe, can we take a picture together? You're my fan, oh no, I'm your fan!" Xiaoju asked, her eyes sparkling.

"what?"

Jing He was stunned.

Why does it feel like it's a bit reversed?

Bonnie and Tie Xuan looked at each other, clearly somewhat taken aback.

Gengar, on the other hand, rolled its bright eyes around a couple of times, seemingly lost in thought.

Then Xiaoju took out a poster of "Meow Meow and Pichu" merchandise and asked, "Can I get your autograph?"

Upon seeing this promotional poster, Jinghe understood.

That's it
Xiaoju is a big fan of "Meow Meow and Pichu".

It's perfectly reasonable for a trainer specializing in Electric-type Pokémon to like the mischievous and adorable Pichu.

"Okay, okay," Jing He replied, caught off guard.

He quickly signed the poster for Xiaoju'er, while thinking to himself, "The Rocket Team's merchandise promotion is pretty good; it's even spread throughout the Unova region."

It seems he'll get a significantly larger share this year.

After signing the papers, Xiaoju hoped to take a photo with the group.

When Jinghe saw Gengar holding a phone and Rotom filming nearby, her heart skipped a beat.

“Genga~()”

"Teacher Jinghe, shall we have a match?"
