Mind Master of the Elf World

Chapter 58 Taking That Step (Seeking monthly votes at the beginning of the month!)

"Kou Jie~~"

Gastly floated in from inside the door, and without forgetting to open the door for Jing He, which made Jing He, who had just walked to the door with the key, feel slightly embarrassed.

Jinghe's eye twitched.

"Gastly, next time remember to wait until the door is open before going in."

"Kou Jie?"

Gastly turned around, looking puzzled.

Why?

Jing He took a slight breath. "Didn't you see? There's a notice posted in the community about thieves. If you just break through the door like that and someone sees you, we'll probably be unable to clear our names."

"Ghostly?! Σ(дlll)"

Seeing its astonished look, Jinghe nodded in satisfaction and closed the door.

"Got it?"

"Kou Jie?"

Jinghe, who was walking by, did not notice that Gastly's eyes were flashing with a sharp light.

It seems like this is really the case!
Jinghe didn't even notice it until it said so.

But, hehe—

"Ooh?"

Hearing the noise, Little Sixtail cautiously peeked out from behind the door, tilting its head.

Once it was confirmed that it was Jinghe and Gastly, the little guy's eyes lit up.

It rushed happily towards Jinghe.

"Ooh ooh ooh—"

"Wait, wait, Six-Tails, you..."

Bang!
Before Jing He could finish speaking, Xiao Liuwei pounced on him and knocked him to the ground, giving him a series of affectionate licks on his cheeks.

Wiping the frost off her face, Jinghe glanced at Gastly, who was laughing heartlessly to the side.

Pick up the little one and put him on the ground.

Don't let its small size fool you; aside from its fluffy fur, it's barely bigger than a kitten, but its strength is truly remarkable.

It would be easy to tackle an adult like him.

Moreover, what surprised Jinghe the most about Vulpix was its psychic ability; it didn't seem like an Ice-type Pokémon at all.

Just like now.

Just as he was about to get up, he felt a superpower envelop him, and then he slowly got up.

Is this an Ice-type Pokémon?
Is it the spirit of the duck god?

"However, her condition did recover very quickly."

This is the third day since Jing He captured the Ice Vulpix. In the Pokédex he can see, the Ice Vulpix's "Status" section has recovered from "Weak" to "Good".

"There's a fireworks display tonight. Get ready, we're going out in a bit."

Jing He stroked the little guy's soft fur and said with a smile.

"Ooh, oh?"

Upon hearing this, Little Six-Tailed Fox slowly took two steps back, its eyes revealing trepidation and even fear.

This is the current situation of the little guy. Besides not knowing how strong he is and possibly having a "violent" tendency, he is also very socially anxious and lacks self-confidence.

"Don't be afraid, we'll go together," Jing He said gently.

"Woo, woo"

With Jinghe's reassurance, the little guy finally agreed.

He turned around and started tidying up with Gastly.

Jinghe did not delve into the origins of the Ice Six-Tailed Beast.

on the one hand.

After all, it's a painful experience for the Ice Vulpix. Asking too many questions might touch on wounds it doesn't want to reopen. It's finally become a little more lively, so it's best not to ask any questions in the short term.

on the other hand.

He has already inquired with Officer Jenny at the Kanaz Police Station about the sale of Pokémon in the Alola region. If he gets the information, he won't need to go through Vulpix.

However, he still learned it through indirect means.

Ice Vulpix did indeed experience being abandoned.

However, it was never tamed; the person who abandoned it apparently only intended to keep it as a pet.

In Jinghe's opinion...

The past of Little Six Tail is important, but if we really have to weigh it, its future is definitely more important.

If you remain stuck in the past, you'll never take the first step forward.

It has to take that step eventually.

After half an hour.

People were walking through the streets of Kanaz City. Vulpix was perched on Jing He's head, gripping his hair tightly.

"Six-Tails, if you keep catching them like this, I'll have to become a monk."

"Ooh, oh!"

Little Six-Tailed Fox then realized what was happening and quickly released its claws, gently blowing on Jing He's scalp as if it were a pity.

ka ka ka-

A layer of frost has formed.

Jing He: "."

He wondered if, in addition to cherry and peach, he should also prepare some limu fruit.
Limousin: Relieves frostbite or freezing.

"Hehehe~~"

Compared to Vulpix, Gastly seemed much more at ease.

In particular, it pulled out a big red bow from somewhere in its house and put it on its head.

It's euphemistically called the same style as Ice Six Tail.

If Jinghe hadn't stopped it, it probably would have already run to someone else to ask if it looked good.

One is a social butterfly, the other is a social phobic—it's really something else.

"Uncle, this six-tailed fox is so cute! Why is it white?"

Suddenly, a little girl of about eight or nine years old, holding a baby dog, couldn't help but ask curiously, her eyes blinking as she stared at Xiao Liuwei.

uncle?

"Ooh!"

Little Six-Tailed Fox shuddered and grabbed Jing He's hair again, burying its head in the sand.

"hiss--"

Jinghe gasped and forced a smile, saying, "Call me...brother."

"Okay, Uncle, is this really a six-tailed fox?"

The little girl tilts her head in a cute pose.

suddenly.

Gastly appeared out of nowhere, grinning at the little girl and sticking out its tongue.

"Kou Jie!!"

For an instant.

The little girl froze, her eyes glistening with tears.

Oh no! Oh no!
Jinghe quickly pulled Gastly up, turned around and ran. He saw the little girl's parents nearby.

Trot all the way.

We finally arrived at the riverside park where the fireworks display was taking place. A large crowd had already gathered there, chatting and laughing, creating a lively atmosphere.

Jinghe, along with Vulpix and Gastly, found a patch of grass to sit down on.

"What the hell?" Gastly looked displeased.

Why are you pulling me away?
Didn't you see that little girl and think I'm so cute I want to cry?

Dark lines appeared on Jinghe's forehead.

Yes.

So cute.

"Vulpix."

"Ooh?"

"Didn't you notice? A lot of people have been praising you along the way, saying you're cute and pretty."

"Ooh, oh?"

Really?

"As long as you hold your head high and stand tall, you'll find that you're much more popular than you think."

Jinghe lifted Xiao Liuwei off her head and put her on the ground.

I touched my hair.

Good guy.

Hard.

But now is not the time to worry about that.

He gently stroked the little six-tailed fox's head and said softly:

"Walk forward a bit, and learn from Gastly."

Turning my head, I saw that Gastly had somehow run up to a lovey-dovey couple and was making exaggerated funny faces, showing off its big red bow.

The lovey-dovey young couple were so frightened that they turned tail and ran away.

Jing He: "."

"Hey, don't be like Gastly. Be yourself, take a step forward, and you might see a different view."

"Ooh!"

Encouraged by Jinghe's gaze.

Little Six-Tail gritted its teeth and closed its eyes.

She ran several steps with a "patter" sound.

Bang! !

Brilliant fireworks bloomed perfectly in the night sky.

The night sky was illuminated by flowing lights, as dazzling as stars.

Startled, the little six-tailed fox instinctively opened its eyes.

Then I saw the dazzling fireworks.

It painted the night sky, painted the white fur of the Ice Six-tailed Fox, and reflected in its pure eyes.

"Ooh~woo~~"

What a beauty.

Jinghe hugged the little Vulpix back into his arms, and Gastly returned to his side as well.

A person with two Pokémon sat on the grass, gazing at the flowers blooming in the night sky, and unconsciously smiled.

"Making a wish while watching fireworks is very effective," Jinghe said.

"Kou Jie?"

"Ooh?"

really?
Gastly and Vulpix exchanged a glance.

"Kou Jie——"

Gastly cackled loudly.

I, along with Jinghe and the little cutie, will punch the champion of Nanshan and kick the king of Beihai!

"Ooh~~"

Little Six-Tail blinked its eyes demurely.

Gastly said that Jinghe is destined to become an amazing trainer, and I must follow in his footsteps!
They all looked at Jinghe.

"The world is so big, I just want to take you to see it!" Jing He said with a smile.

Bang! !

Fireworks illuminated a golden Pikachu.
