Pokémon: The Sims.

Chapter 479 Not afraid to shed tears, as long as this bond is worthwhile
The seaside near Guxiang Town.

"Wow~ Cynthia, look, look~ I'm going to sink~"

Tianxi's excited voice came through.

Cynthia, who was learning dolphin swimming from Wu Ge, turned her head and was terrified.

Suddenly, Diancie, who was wearing a swim ring, punctured the ring that was around her.

The little princess is sinking.

Unfortunately, she was unaware of the danger of drowning.

咕噜 咕噜
Bubbles appear on the surface of the water.

Before Tianxi could show any pain, Wu Ge had already picked her up.

"Ahem! Wu Ge, you're amazing!"

Tianxi coughed twice, then clapped at Wu Ge.

"Now you know how terrible drowning is, right?"

Wu Ge looked at the little princess helplessly.

A mythical beast almost drowned in this world.

But there's nothing we can do about it.

Tianxi's physical structure destined her to never learn to swim.

And swimming rings are easily punctured by the sharp edges of her body.

"Mmm! That feeling of helplessness really makes my heart flutter."

Tianxi patted her chest.

He was clearly quite frightened.

She was so excited to see the ocean for the first time.

It turns out that seawater isn't icy cold; it's actually quite warm under the sun.

"Lucario swims so fast, and his swimming style is just like Piplup's."

Cynthia slowly walked over.

She wanted to say it when she was learning dolphin swimming from Wu Ge.

Why is it that a Lucario living in the mountains can swim faster than a human and even more Water-type Pokémon?
"Perhaps, I was a Piplup in my past life?"

Wu Ge grinned slightly and turned to look at the ocean.

He didn't actually like the sea that much in the past.

However, after meeting a girl with fiery red hair, he fell in love with the azure ocean because of her.

puff!
Suddenly, a huge thing appeared on the sea next to us.

"Roaring Whale!"

Cynthia was already used to this.

The existence of the Sea Crown.

She had known about it for several years.

So she wasn't surprised at all that Water-type Pokémon would often appear around Lucario.

On the contrary, they were very interested in the suddenly appearing roaring whales.

Pokémon like Wailord are not common.

Although they are numerous, they generally only linger in the deep sea.

For humans who have little experience exploring the ocean, Pokémon like Whaley are still not easy to encounter.

"He's so round, like the beach volleyball those kids are playing over there."

Tianxi, who was being held by Wu Ge, pointed in the direction of the beach.

"quack"

The roaring whale nuzzled against Wu Ge, and a single tear squeezed out of its two tiny, beady eyes.

"What's wrong with this child?"

Cynthia reached out and stroked the skin of the Howling Whale.

The skin is moist.

It's clear that the loss of small pearls wasn't due to any physical problem.

"Run away from home."

Snapped!
Wu Ge reached out and patted the crown on Diancie's head before saying:

"They got separated from their tribe."

"Oh dear, how pitiful. Shall I contact Sister Monet?"

"No need, I remember there are rangers patrolling the nearby beach, go and look for them."

Wu Ge shook his head.

The howling whale got lost, and he didn't have a good way to help it find its pod.

His current waveguide sensing limit is 500 meters.

Within a 500-meter radius.

He can 'see' any living being and any movement.

On land, this is an extremely powerful ability; among the more than a thousand known Pokémon, only Lucario's Aura Sensing can achieve this.

But this waveguide has a sensing range of 500 meters.

If you put it on the ocean, it's really a bit too short.

Anyway, it's probably not enough to find a pod of howling whales.

However, leave professional matters to professionals.

Those rangers are definitely used to this kind of thing, so there shouldn't be any problem leaving it to them.

"Then I'll have Garchomp take me to search in the sky. Lucario, you keep an eye on Diancie and Wailord for now."

"Ok, I know."

Wu Ge nodded.

Cynthia then returned to the beach, and then rode Garchomp into the sky to search for the figure in red nearby.

It shouldn't take more than a few minutes to find it.

After all, the beach in Guxiang Town is only so big.

Watching Cynthia gradually disappear into the distance.

Wu Ge withdrew his gaze.

He glanced at the princess of the mining country he was holding, then at the little round whale in front of him.

He placed Diancie on the Howling Whale's head.

"This is the first time I've seen a Pokémon like you. Let's be friends!"

Tianxi lay on the back of the howling whale and reached out to stroke its skin.

"quack"

The howling whale was in a bad mood and didn't pay much attention to her.

"Don't be sad. You're not completely destitute. At least you still have the face to go home."

".?"

The roaring whale straightened its face, shook its body, and shook off the little, silent creature on its head.

Wu Ge helplessly reached out and caught Diancie as she fell.

Why is he angry?

"Because you can't speak."

"I think I spoke quite well."

"Don't think about it anymore."

Wu Ge sighed.

In just a short while.

Cynthia's voice came from the distant sea:

"Roaring whale~"

"Qua~"

The howling whale heard someone calling its name and responded immediately without even looking to see who it was.

She's a very polite child.

"Wu Ge, I'd like to soak my lower body in seawater, could you do that for me?"

"Ah."

Wu Ge nodded slightly and lowered Diancie's posture. This little princess is quite polite, but she's not very good at speaking.

When Machima traveled the human world, she learned too many different things and couldn't distinguish between good and bad. She learned everything and then taught it all to Diancie.

A sidelong glance.

Cynthia arrived on a dragon riding the waves, accompanied by a female ranger in a red uniform.

Just look at Pokémon.

This patrolman is probably specifically responsible for matters concerning the sea area around Guxiang Town.

"Howling whale, this ranger will take you back to your pod."

"Leave it to me. I know many of the Water-type Pokémon in this area. I can ask around and find out where there are any Wailords. I can take you back in no time."

The ranger patted his chest confidently.

The dragon beneath her also raised its head and let out a triumphant cry.

It's as if he's saying he'll take care of it.

pat.

Cynthia jumped off the back of the dragon into the water.

Then it patted the howling whale's back:

"Go on, and stay close to the ranger and Chenglong."

"Qua~"

Roar excitedly flapped its wings.

That looked quite comical.

This made Wu Ge and Cynthia unable to help but chuckle.

However, Diancie, watching the joyful whale fly away, couldn't help but show a hint of disappointment on her face.

"what happened?"

Wu Ge keenly sensed her waveguide.

"We've only just become friends."

Tianxi lowered her head in disappointment, absentmindedly kicking the seawater with her lower body.

'I don't recall anyone agreeing to be your friend.'

Wu Ge pursed his lips.

Is friendship such a fragile thing?

"no."

Cynthia answered the question in place of Wu Ge.

She took out the diamond that Tianxi had given them earlier.

The pink diamonds sparkled brilliantly in the sunlight.

"Look, it's been a whole night, and it still hasn't disappeared."

Wu Ge smiled and took the opportunity to speak.

"It turned out to be true!"

Tianxi's eyes widened with excitement.

Without saying a word, she conjured another pink diamond and held it in her arms.

"If you ever meet the howling whale again, I think he'll greet your friend whom you met once before."

probably.

Wu Ge casually made up a sentence.

"But... wouldn't it be sad to part ways after becoming friends? The thought of separating from Wu Ge and Cynthia in the future already makes me feel lost."

"If you want to build bonds with others, you have to take the risk of shedding tears. We are not afraid of shedding tears, as long as the bond is worth it."

Wu Ge reached out and patted the crown on her head.

I don't want to shed tears.

"Do you want to never have any friends?"

"I don't want to either."

"Well, so you have to choose one."

Wu Ge nodded slightly.

The vast majority of gods in this world have chosen the path of not creating bonds.

They adhere to the idea that those who are mindful will be burdened, while those who are indifferent will not care.

Either.

They only associate with their peers, that is, Pokémon with the same infinite lifespan.

"Let's just be friends then. I don't want to lose Wu Ge and Cynthia."

"Tianxi~"

Hearing Diancie's words, Cynthia happily hugged her.

“Cynthia, Wu Ge, come with me to the Diamond Country in a few days.”

“Okay, I want to see the legendary sacred diamond.”

"Well, of course."

after that.

Under Wu Ge's succubus attributes.

A steady stream of Water-type Pokémon gathered, and eventually they even rode on a wild Gyarados, experiencing the thrill of surfing on the sea.

This is not unfamiliar to Wu Ge.

However, it was a novel experience for Cynthia and Diancie.

They felt the water splashing in their faces.

very excited.

The waves shattered into tiny, snow-like pearls beside my ear.

Wu Ge also immersed himself in the feeling of riding the waves for the first time in a long time.

past.

He was on Lapras's back with Kona.

Time flies so fast.

Distance from that time
About a hundred years have passed.

The salty smell in the wind was no different from that of the ocean in another world.

The only difference was that the carefree red-haired girl behind him wasn't there anymore.

Look up and gaze at the boundless sea stretching out before you.

The scenes from the past still vividly appear before my eyes.

If only you were still here with me.

That way, I wouldn't need to rely on fragments of past memories to fill in the chapters of this long period of time.

"Lucario~"

Snapped!
The impact from behind was gentle, and long, slender arms wrapped around his chest.

"Ok?"

Wu Ge turned his head slightly and glanced at the blonde girl behind him.

The sunlight made her blonde hair shine even brighter.

"Hehe, your fur is all wet."

"Soaked dog~"

A sullen voice came from the side.

Wu Ge's cheek twitched, and he shook his head helplessly.

"When we get back, I'll help you dry off, dry all that sadness and all that seawater together."

Hirona's caring and gentle voice reached his ears.

original.

The golden retriever noticed.

I just didn't ask.

It seemed she had already guessed it, but he didn't want to say.

".good."
