Manor Lord of the Elf World

Chapter 234 New Pokémon

Wow, so many Pokémon!
Looking at these familiar yet unfamiliar Pokémon, Raven's eyes lit up.

Rowlet, Litten, and Popplio are the three starter Pokémon for the Alola region in the future!
Little Dolphin, the gatebird of Alora.

The Dugtrio, Rockruff, Amanita, and Ursaring that follow are Pokémon that are very characteristic of Alola!
Especially the shroom, this Pokémon emits a bright light at night, dispelling the darkness, making it a natural, non-consuming, and pollution-free lighting tool.

As for the Alolan form of Vulpix... it's so cute it melts your heart!

Jolteon is a pseudo-legendary Pokémon in the Alola region.

"Excellent, excellent!" Raven praised repeatedly.

The group of newcomers looked around at their surroundings with great curiosity.

Some remained timidly in place, while others boldly ran around on the gleaming marble floor.

"Everyone, let's go back into our Poké Balls for now!"

Columbus grinned and ordered his sailors to put the Pokémon from the Alola region back into their Poké Balls. Next, he was going to introduce Pokémon from two other regions.

"After leaving the Alora Islands, our fleet continued sailing on the vast ocean, and about a month later we arrived at another expansive land."

"That was a place called Carlos, which was ruled by a country called the Kingdom of Carlos. We were invited to go to the capital to meet King AZ."

"Upon learning of our purpose, the king was quite surprised. He ordered his ministers to make a deal with us, but life there seemed to be quite turbulent... According to the local commoners, the Kingdom of Carlos is currently at war with a country called the Kingdom of Galar."

"Oh?" Raven frowned upon hearing this.

The war in Az, the Carlos region, and the Galar region... has it already begun?
So here's the question: Did Huayedi die in the war? Has the ultimate weapon been created yet?
According to information from the Ladari Institute, AZ possessed talent and technology surpassing that of the era 3000 years ago, and the ultimate weapon he created was called "the tool of God" by his brother.

The ultimate weapon, a terrifying war machine invented by AZ that does not belong to this era.

Although AZ created it only to revive his own Flareon, he turned it into a weapon to destroy both sides of the war and end it because he wanted revenge on those who killed his beloved Pokémon.

The end result was that AZ was affected by the energy of the ultimate weapon and gained immortality.

When Az's Flowerleaf realized that Az had caused the deaths of many Pokémon in order to revive it, it left Az.

This war not only caused enormous losses to the Carlos region, but also brought a terrible disaster to the people of the Galar region.

The final result can be described as a lose-lose situation.

This led to mutual animosity between the people of the two regions, resulting in a very poor relationship that only improved after the formation of the modern Pokémon League.

As for the ultimate weapon, it was buried underground and permanently sealed by AZ's brother until modern times, when it was unearthed by Flare Team's Vladari and reactivated.

Raven tapped the throne idly with his fingers.

He was thinking.

He pondered what he could do and the hope he had always sought called "immortality."

If he could have a lifespan as close to eternal as AZ's, then he could stay by the side of Dragonite, Serperior, and Volcarona forever.

"It seems necessary to make a trip to the Carlos region," Raven thought to himself.

Columbus continued his report: "...In return, the King of Aztecs also generously gifted us many Pokémon unique to the Kalos region."

After saying that, Goblin ordered his men to bring out another box of Poké Balls.

With flashes of white light, Pokémon brimming with the local customs and culture of the Kalos region appeared before Raven.

Halili Chestnut, Fire Fox, Froggy Frog, Digging Rabbit, Little Arrow Sparrow, White Butterfly, Little Lion, Flower Leaf Stem, Mounted Sheep and Mounted Goat, Mischievous Panda, Single-edged Sword Sheath, Umbrella Electric Lizard, Dongdong Mouse, Little Diamond Shard...

Raven glanced at it.

These Pokémon are also very useful.

Chespin and Froakie can be bred and given to new trainers in the Unova region as starter Pokémon.

Diggerbuck is good at digging burrows for farming, Viva can spread pollen, and Pokémon such as Flower Leaf and Pancham can enrich the Pokémon ecosystem in the Unova region.

Needless to say, the lambs and goats used for riding are also helpful to humans, producing milk as well.

This Pokémon has a gentle nature, and if it has water and sunlight, it can generate energy using the leaves on its back to live.

It is the earliest Pokémon to live alongside humans, and some records even indicate that this Pokémon has been assisting humans in their work since 5,000 years ago.

"Not bad." Raven nodded slightly in satisfaction.

Columbus recalled the Pokémon into their Poké Balls, and then continued:

"After leaving the Kingdom of Carlos, we traveled south along the continent. That land was much larger than the United Kingdom where we were. Therefore, at the southern end of the continent, there was a country called the Kingdom of Padia."

"A treasure-hunting craze is sweeping the area. After extensive investigation, we have finally discovered that in the center of that land lies a massive pit called the 'Padia Pit.' It is said that a great treasure lies beneath it, and whoever finds it will gain unparalleled fame and wealth, attracting countless adventurers and explorers to the place."

Padiya...the Padiya region.

Raven thought for a moment; as far as he knew, the distance between the Padia and Carlos regions was indeed very close.

Images of the past god Milton and the future god Milton, along with the appearance of that group of Pokémon that had been corrupted, flashed through Raven's mind. With great interest, he asked:
"Oh? What kind of Pokémon did you encounter there?"

Columbus clapped his hands, and the sailors beside him finally brought out the final spoils of the voyage.

With flashes of white light, one after another, the figures of Pokémon never seen before appeared in front of Raven.

New Leaf Cat, Babu Groundhog, Family Mouse, Puppy Bag, Twisted Dog, Orion, Salt Stone Treasure, Charcoal Little Servant, Little Blacksmith, Motor Lizard, Milly Dragon.

Raven was overjoyed to see the Pokémon in front of him.

While the Puppy and the Twisted Dog aren't good at fighting, their role in agriculture far surpasses that of ordinary Pokémon!
The alluring scent emanating from these two Pokémon helps the wheat crop grow.

The people of Unova have now learned to live by the power of Pokémon, and Landorus has injected new vitality into the land of Unova, making it fertile.

Now, with the addition of the Teddy dogs, Raven is confident that within a year at most, his people will no longer have to worry about going hungry!

It's not just about puppies and teddy bears.

Orion, the final evolution of the Pokémon Orichalcos, produces delicious and nutritious olive oil, which can be extremely useful in cooking.

The Pokémon Saltstone can produce large quantities of high-quality rock salt, which even possesses some very magical powers.

It is said that if you sprinkle it on an injured Pokémon, no matter how serious the injury, it can heal immediately.

Raven then turned his gaze to the other Pokémon.

Charcoal Servant: Their bodies can generate high temperatures, making them skilled in combat and also helpful in starting fires. Little Blacksmith: Possessing immense strength and expertise in forging, while they may not play a significant role in the future, in this era they are undoubtedly the best apprentices for blacksmith shops!

In addition, there's the gentle-natured motor lizard, which can also serve as a means of transportation.

Looking at the Pokémon in front of him, Raven's eyes lit up. His decision to start the Age of Exploration was indeed the right one!

With the addition of these Pokémon, the Unova Kingdom's development speed will be greatly accelerated!

Thinking of this, Raven was in high spirits and immediately waved his hand, saying to Elif, "Reward me!"

Columbus was overjoyed and immediately knelt down, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty! We plan to rest for a few days, and once the fleet is ready, we will set sail again!"

“Alright!” Raven said, “If you need anything, just let me know.”

"Yes!"

Columbus and the others gradually withdrew.

Raven returned to his study, pondered for a moment, then took out paper and pen and wrote down the general information and strengths of the Pokémon on the paper before handing it to Elif.

"Elif, have someone take those Pokémon down here and raise them properly. Once they've adapted to life here, we can gradually introduce them to other places," Raven said.

Introducing Pokémon is not something that can be done overnight.

Releasing them directly into the wild could cause significant damage to the local ecosystem.

Therefore, human intervention is necessary beforehand to minimize the damage.

“Yes, Your Majesty,” Elif replied softly, holding the information written by Raven, and bowed as he withdrew.

The heavy wooden door to the study closed slowly, completely shutting out the noise from the outside world.

Raven sat back down behind his large desk, his fingertips lightly tapping the smooth surface, his thoughts churning like waves on the sea.

Outside the window, the setting sun was slowly sinking into the distant horizon, dyeing the castle and streets of Raven City in a warm golden-red hue. Several Swellows spread their wings and swept across the sky, while the subjects and Pokémon below continued their orderly work, presenting a peaceful and prosperous scene.

This is the Unova Kingdom that he built single-handedly over several years.

There is fertile land nourished by the Land Cloud, a stable order throughout the territory, a beautiful home where humans and Pokémon live in harmony, and a powerful force capable of protecting this land.

He created all of this single-handedly.

From a penniless transmigrator to a unified king, he relied on his understanding of the world and his loyal Pokémon partners to reach where he is today.

But Raven's eyes were not entirely filled with satisfaction.

Alora, Carlos, Padia...

What Columbus brought back was far more than just new Pokémon and products; it was a gateway to the entire world.

The War of Carlos, the Immortal King, the Ultimate Weapon...

"Immortality...?"

Raven murmured softly, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the windowsill.

He possessed power, a kingdom, and countless loyal subjects and companions. Dragonite, Serperior, Volcarona... they accompanied him from humble beginnings to the pinnacle.

No matter how long a Pokémon's lifespan is, it will eventually come to an end.

Human life is as fleeting as morning dew.

He was not afraid of battle, not afraid of power struggles, and not afraid of the thorns on the road ahead.

What he fears is the ruthlessness of time, and watching helplessly as the people he cherishes most leave him one by one.

However, the immortality Raven desires is not the cursed, blood-stained eternal life of AZ.

Instead, they can stay by the side of their partners like Dragonite, Serperior, and Volcarona for a long time, witness the continued prosperity of the Unova Kingdom, and protect all that is before them for eternity.

However... the Carlos region is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Several names flashed through Raven's mind.

Xerneas, the god of life.

Yveltal, the god of death.

And Zygard, the god of order and overseer and guardian of the ecosystem.

He slowly stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the land he had protected, a determined light gradually igniting in his eyes.

The fleet has opened up a sea route to the New World.

The Pokémon from Alola, Kalos, and Padina will gradually integrate into the Unova ecosystem and become a driving force for the kingdom's development.

Agriculture, forging, transportation, and people's livelihoods will all experience a leap forward because of these new forces. Before long, his people will completely bid farewell to hunger and scarcity and live a truly prosperous and stable life.

And after that... he will personally embark on the journey to Carlos.

Go see the immortal King AZ, explore the secrets of the ultimate weapon, stop the war that is destined to end in mutual destruction, and protect the innocent Pokémon that should have died because of the ultimate weapon.

And, for yourself and for your companions, seek a truly bright and eternal path.

A gentle evening breeze swept across the terrace, carrying the sweet scents of flowers, grass, and Pokémon. Kyurem, who had been lying quietly to the side, seemed to sense Raven's feelings.

It slowly raised its head and let out a low, majestic hum.

"It seems you've made up your mind again."

Raven smiled and said to Kyurem, "I just want to do what I should do, to seek my own ideals and truth."

"Besides, now that I'm here, I can't just stand by and watch so many innocent lives die because of this."

“And…” Raven glanced at the Dragonite, Serperior, and Volcarona beside him, “I also want to stay by everyone’s side as much as possible.”

"Hmm..." Kyurem slowly exhaled two breaths from his nostrils, his majestic gaze fixed on Raven. After a moment, he nodded and said, "In that case, go. No matter what, we will face it with you."

"Don't worry, we have a long way to go," Raven said softly, his gaze drifting out the window.

The whole world seemed to unfold slowly in his eyes.

On this evening of the 152nd year of the Alliance Calendar, the king of the United Kingdom had already turned his gaze to a distant place even more vast than the sea.
