Manor Lord of the Elf World

Chapter 189: Cooperating with Land Cloud to make the land of United States even more bountiful!

Cooperation?

Upon hearing this, Mikumo stopped and turned to look at the strange human in front of him.

Raven nodded, his gaze slowly sweeping over Sanyun, and explained:

"It means you help me with some things, and I will help you with some things in return, so as to achieve a win-win situation."

"For example, the land cloud is good at making the soil more fertile and the crops more abundant. It helps the common people under my rule to have a good harvest, and in return, I will help it fulfill a certain wish."

Upon hearing this, Tu Diyun's heart stirred.

"How is it?" Raven asked.

The thundercloud and the tornado cloud looked at each other but did not speak immediately.

Instead, the Earth Cloud, who had transformed into a large orange tiger, used telepathy to ask:

"Can you make this land beneath my feet grow lush flowers and crops?"

Raven paused for a moment, looking at Landorus's expression and recalling the scene of Landorus refusing to participate in the battle. He then understood and asked:
"You want this land to be covered with flowers and crops?"

Land Cloud nodded its tiger head; it was more interested in farming and raising animals than fighting.

That is why, after absorbing the energy of wind and thunder, it does not keep it for its own use, but instead spreads it to this land.

In order to make this land more fertile, to make the flowers and grass grow more vigorously, and to make the crops in the fields have a good harvest.

Whenever the land cloud sees this vibrant scene, it feels a sense of satisfaction and looks forward to seeing it become even better.

Upon seeing the appearance of the Earth Cloud, Raven's eyes lit up.

I enjoy planting things and watching the crops grow beautifully on the land...

Land Cloud's preferences are exactly the same as his!
He immediately assured me, "No problem. If you're willing to cooperate with me, I'll have people cultivate the land and plant crops and flowers. We'll cooperate until the soil of this entire land becomes fertile and bountiful!"

Although Landorus doesn't have the same power as Calyrex, it's still very strong compared to other Pokémon.

"So, Land Cloud, would you like to cooperate with us?" Raven asked.

The large tiger in front of them tilted its head as if in thought, and after a moment, it nodded.

“I do,” said Tudiyun.

“Very good.” Raven then turned his gaze to the lightning cloud and tornado cloud beside him. According to his observation, the land cloud needs to absorb the energy generated by the other two clouds during their battle in order to make the soil fertile.

This means that the energy of a single land cloud is not enough.

“Thunderclouds, tornadoes, what about you?” Raven asked again.

Upon hearing this, the thundercloud and the tornado cloud exchanged a glance.

Then, Thundercloud asked somewhat impatiently, "Can you make me stronger?"

The tornado cloud beside it nodded in agreement, clearly sharing the same idea as the thundercloud.

"To become stronger?" Raven immediately realized Thundercloud's wish.

Thunderclouds and tornadoes seek immense power.

“Of course, not only that, I can also make sure that every human being on this land knows your names, that your names spread to everyone’s ears, and that they know how powerful you are,” Raven said.

Upon hearing these words, a glint of light flashed in Lei Dianyun's eyes.

Who could resist such temptation?

Enough talk, let's do it!

The thundercloud and the tornado cloud immediately agreed.

Immediately afterwards, Raven also received three notifications.

LandCloud has joined your territory!

[Thunder Cloud has joined your territory!]

[A tornado has joined your territory!]

Like the previous three holy swordsmen, Gopaleon, Virizion, and Terakion.

This means that Raven can now view detailed information about the Three Cloud Gods and Baosheng's resume.

However, he didn't rush to check. Instead, he smiled slightly and welcomed them, saying, "Then, welcome to the team."

San Yun Shen nodded.

The holiday was not over yet. Since the three cloud gods had hardly ever been in contact with humans before, Raven was not in a hurry to return to Raven City. Instead, he took them back to Ripple Town to continue his three-day holiday.

When they returned to Ripple Town, it was already evening. After the storm, the sky was clear and bright, with large patches of sunset floating on the horizon, and a gentle sea breeze caressing the golden sand.

Nobles and tourists who came here for vacation strolled along the beach with their families, quietly enjoying the beautiful scenery of this seaside town.

"It's so beautiful!"

Gazing at the calm sea and the beautiful sunset, Raven couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

"Woo..."

Dragonite sat to Raven's left, Serperior stood to Raven's right, and Claydot and Burning Bug nestled in Raven's arms, watching the scene with him.

Land clouds, thunder clouds, and tornado clouds floated not far behind, watching this scene with some confusion, wondering what was so interesting about it.

However, Raven didn't mind. He simply enjoyed the peaceful time with his Pokémon. He knew he would be busy again once he returned to the royal city.

Raven played in the sand with the Dragonite and the others for a while, and then took the opportunity to check the information of the three Cloud Gods.

Without a doubt, these are three powerful Pokémon.

However, their favorability rating was rather low, but Raven could understand it, since they were only in a cooperative relationship at the moment.

“Thunderclouds, tornado clouds, land clouds… I think there should also be a lingering cloud,” Raven pondered.

The Cloud of Longing first appeared in the game "Pokémon Legends Arceus".

Legend has it that the Cloud of Longing will cross the sea to the Xicui region as the harsh winter is about to end, and its compassion will cause new life to sprout on the land of Xicui.

Therefore, the cloud that clings to spring is also known as the god of spring.

However, judging from the current situation, it seems that the Cloud of Longing is not in the Unova region?
Or perhaps, as the only female among the four Pokémon, she doesn't like to hang out with the other three male Pokémon?
Unable to come up with an answer, Raven simply asked Landcloud.

“Land Cloud, do you know about the Cloud of Longing?” he asked.

Land Cloud nodded: "It left this land a long time ago and went to other places. We don't know where it is now."

Upon hearing this, Raven thought to himself, "Just as I expected."

If he's not mistaken, the Cloud of Love has probably reached the Sinnoh region, which is the former Greenland region.

Unfortunately, it's not possible to gather all four bonds in a short time... Raven felt a little regretful.

The three-day holiday came to an end quickly.

Three days later, Raven rode his Dragonite back to Raven City.

As soon as he landed, he heard Elif come to report.

"Your Majesty Raven, the Royal City has received news that a strange storm has recently occurred between Ripple Town and Black City. Local villagers witnessed two unknown Pokémon battling in the storm!"

Raven raised an eyebrow. The news had reached Raven City so quickly?

Elif continued with a relieved tone, "Fortunately, those two Pokémon didn't cause any damage to the village... According to the local villagers, the storm was eventually stopped by another Pokémon, and that Pokémon even released a magical power that made the village's crops ripen instantly."

"I heard that the villagers there are planning to build a Shrine of Abundance to honor that Pokémon."

Shrine of Abundance?

Raven paused for a moment, then a strange expression appeared on his face.

He recalled the Shrine of Abundance used to worship the Earth Cloud in the anime. Could this be the origin of the Shrine of Abundance?
"I wish that Pokémon that can make crops ripen instantly could join our territory..." Elif couldn't help but feel longing.

In this way, the people of the kingdom will no longer have to worry about hunger.

Hearing this, Raven smiled, then waved and shouted, "Land cloud, lightning cloud, tornado cloud."

As soon as he finished speaking, the three cloud gods slowly floated out from behind him. They looked at Raven with expressions that seemed to ask: Why did you call us?
Upon seeing these three Pokémon he had never seen before, Elif was immediately taken aback, and then looked at Raven with some suspicion.

"Your Majesty, this...this is?!"

"These are the Pokémon that the villagers saw, the ones you just mentioned." Raven said with a smile, "Let me formally introduce them: Tornado, Thundurus, and Landorus. Landorus is the Pokémon that makes crops ripen instantly."

"Of course, that wasn't just the power of the land cloud alone; it also owes a lot to the tornado cloud and the lightning cloud."

"My God!" Elif was so shocked that he couldn't say a word.

Your Majesty... Your Majesty only went out for a short while, and you actually brought back these three Pokémon!
Seeing Elif's expression, Raven smiled and said, "Don't be so surprised, Elif. Landcloud and the others have agreed to cooperate with us humans. Let's gather everyone together; I have some things to arrange."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Elif quickly came to his senses, turned around and left the castle to summon all the officials in the royal city.

Between the thrones, Raven sat upright on his throne, his gaze sweeping over his subordinates below, before slowly speaking:

"Everyone, I'd like to introduce the three new Pokémon that have joined our territory."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze toward Raven's side.

There, three strangely shaped Pokémon, arms crossed, sat atop a cloud.

"These are tornado clouds, thunderclouds, and land clouds."

"As you can see, although they look very much like us humans, their true identity is still Pokémon."

"To be precise, they are legendary Pokémon."

"They possess immense power. Tornado clouds and thunderclouds can stir up the atmosphere, create storms, and unleash thunder. Land clouds can absorb energy from them, making the soil more fertile and allowing crops to yield a bountiful harvest instantly."

It stirred up the atmosphere, unleashed storms, and sent down thunderbolts...

At first, everyone was simply surprised by this terrifying power.

But when they heard that the land cloud could make the soil more fertile and allow crops to yield a bountiful harvest in an instant, their faces showed an even more shocked expression.

"W-what?"

An elderly man who worked as an administrator in the agricultural bureau stared wide-eyed, his excitement barely concealed.

"Is what Your Majesty said true?"

Raven smiled and nodded: "Of course. I don't know if you've all heard about the storm that happened between Ripple Town and Black City recently. The local villagers witnessed it all, and after the storm, the crops in the village grew instantly."

"And all of this was the work of these three people."

it is true!
Upon hearing this, the old man became even more excited, as he had come from a poor family when he was a child.

It was during a time of war. The enemy empire destroyed the fields, and famine was rampant everywhere. To prevent him from going hungry, his father and mother left all the food for him, and then both starved to death.

Therefore, the old man deeply understood the importance of food...

Upon hearing that this Pokémon possessed such power, the old man was so moved that he burst into tears.

With it around, no one on this land will ever starve to death again!
"Currently, LandCloud and others have agreed to cooperate with us."

After everyone had processed their emotions, Raven continued:

"Next, I plan to send people with seeds, land clouds, tornado clouds, and lightning clouds to travel to every piece of land in the kingdom, and with their power, make every piece of soil in the kingdom more fertile and abundant."

"Excellent!" the old man exclaimed. "Your Majesty is wise!"

"However, everyone should note that this measure is intended to improve the soil quality within the kingdom. Even though the land cloud can make crops ripen instantly, it is ultimately just an external force for us humans and cannot last."

"We cannot rely on it too much; ultimately, humanity must rely on its own strength to go further."

Those present were all intelligent people, and they quickly understood the meaning behind those words.

Making all the land within the kingdom more fertile and abundant is already a terrifyingly powerful force.

The future is predictable; the kingdom will see an unprecedented bumper harvest!

"Land cloud, lightning cloud, tornado cloud, now please cooperate with us humans to make this land beneath our feet even more bountiful!" Raven said.

The Earth Cloud's eyes gleamed. It had never imagined this before, but now that humans were cooperating, its wish might truly be fulfilled perfectly!

"Also, Christina, I need you to publish this in the newspaper. I want everyone to know what the land clouds and lightning clouds are doing for us humans."

Raven hadn't forgotten his promise to the Thundercloud and Tornado Cloud to make them stronger and more famous.

“Yes!” Christina replied quickly.

Upon hearing this, the thunderclouds and tornadoes nodded in agreement.

Not bad!

They have already imagined the scene where people all over the world will be calling out their names, building shrines for them, and expressing their gratitude.

That feeling... was so great!

　Asking for a monthly ticket!
