Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game.

"It doesn't matter. There are no cities to the west, so let them make a fuss."

"Aren't all the trainers in the Albil Mountains human? What if Yveltal keeps destroying everything?"

"Isn't that better than landing directly in densely populated cities like Yingxue City or Baike City?"

"Stop arguing! Yveltal seems to have landed in the forest!"

The noisy barrage of comments immediately fell silent.

Yveltal actually stopped?

For the people of Yingxue City and Baike City, the sword of Damocles hanging over their heads has temporarily disappeared, which is undoubtedly great news.

The Carlos Alliance also breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, as this meant that a large-scale casualty incident was unlikely to occur in the short term.

Having addressed the immediate security needs, what remains is a deep sense of doubt and curiosity.

What exactly is it that is attracting Yveltal's attention?

This question simultaneously appeared in everyone's mind.

As if sensing the viewers' questions, the streamer sped up the drone, carrying their curiosity towards the spot where Yveltal had landed.

…………

It's clear that this content creator spent a lot of money on this drone; it boasts outstanding performance in both speed and battery life.

The drone covered a distance of 30 kilometers in just ten minutes.

Soon, in the dense forest, a bare place where flowers, grass, and trees had all been crushed appeared in the camera carried by the drone.

Undoubtedly, this is the place where Yveltal just landed.

On the open ground littered with tree "remains" and leaf debris, a shrunken version of Yveltal came into view.

The audience was surprised. Was it because they didn't have enough energy? Or was it because the legendary Pokémon originally had the ability to change size at will?

However, that doesn't seem to be the main point right now. On the open ground, opposite Yveltal, there was actually a person and an elf!

The viewers in the live stream were shocked. It turned out that Yveltal really did choose not to go to Snowdrift City in order to track down someone!

It's no exaggeration to say that this person is a hero of the entire Yingxue City!

Who is this hero?

The champion who arrived early? Or some superstar?

People's curiosity is growing stronger.

Without wasting any words, the streamer immediately controlled the drone to keep getting closer to the person.

As the camera zoomed in, the hero and his elfin appearance were revealed to the audience.

It wasn't the Carlos champion Cenares that everyone imagined, but rather an extremely young, handsome man with an elf that wasn't known to many people either.

But a small number of people who knew them immediately gasped in surprise.

"Xia Chen!"

"Sylveon!"

…………

Xia Chen?

The name was very familiar to the people in the live stream. It was he who issued the warning this morning that "Yveltal is about to awaken," but he was questioned and insulted by everyone.

It was him again. After Yveltal awoke, he fearlessly used his own body to draw the Grim Reaper closer, saving the city of Ephemeral from despair!

The live chat exploded with excitement!

"Holy crap, I thought that given Master Pigeon's personality, he would have left after issuing a warning, but he actually did..."

"Master Pigeon, why are you doing something so foolish? The Carlos people aren't worth it! If you repay evil with kindness, how will you repay kindness?"

"As an ordinary person who mocked him this morning and is now trapped in Yingxue City, all I can say is sorry and thank you."

"Whether one person dies or the entire city dies, faced with this magnified version of the trolley problem, Xia Chen, an observer who wasn't tied to the tracks, chose to sacrifice himself to buy precious time for reinforcements. He is a true warrior!"

“Sylveon stood in front of Yveltal with a calm expression, as if it were just a normal Pokémon battle. Many Elite Four Pokémon can’t even do that, right?”

"Damn it, the more I think about it, the angrier I get. If the Yingxue City government could do something, would Xia Chen and Master Yi have to go through all this?"

"Xia Chen and Sylveon are heroes of Kalos!"

"What's the use of the title of hero? I just hope that Master Ge and Master Yi are alive and well. I haven't had enough of your live streams yet, waaaaaah."

Everyone was shocked to see a man and a cloth, with a mortal body, facing a divine beast.

Moved, regretful, guilty, and saddened – complex emotions were displayed through the barrage of comments.

Clearly, everyone regarded them as heroes who saved Yingxue City.

At the same time, everyone believed that they had almost no chance of survival.

…………

Xia Chen had no idea that there was a drone filming him in this remote, remote place, nor did he know that he had been forced into this situation and was now being hailed as a hero by everyone in Carlos.

Even if he knew, he wouldn't be too bothered. If he could, he'd trade this damn hero title for a way to save his life.

Because the sense of oppression emanating from Yveltal was simply too overwhelming.

Xia Chen felt as if he were standing on a single-plank bridge, and below the bridge was an abyss from which there would be no return.

He swallowed hard, wanting to greet the aloof legendary elf, but his throat felt like it was sealed with cement, and he couldn't utter a word.

Yveltal didn't seem to be in a hurry to do anything to Xia Chen and the others; he simply stared silently at Xianbu, who was standing in front of Xia Chen, with a blank expression.

Its target isn't me, but Senbu?

Xia Chen was stunned, but he didn't relax at all. After more than half a year of companionship, Xianbu had become an inseparable and important partner to him.

Important

Xia Chen took a few steps forward, shielding Xianbu behind him, and looked fearlessly at Yveltal.

His current mindset is no different from that of someone who has given up entirely.

So what if I die? It's not like I've never died before. Being able to spend such a wonderful year in the world of elves that I've always dreamed of, it's not a wasted trip.

I just hope that if there's a chance to be reborn, Arceus will throw me into a less dangerous world.

Xia Chen's action attracted Yveltal's attention. It glanced at Xia Chen but remained expressionless.

There's no need to pay attention to someone who has no energy fluctuations and poses no threat whatsoever.

"Buyi!"

Xianbu, feeling both touched and helpless, used the silk to pull Xia Chen back.

What an idiot! Can you withstand one of its Deathwing attacks or its Dark Pulse?

She stood before Xia Chen once more, meeting Yveltal's gaze once more.

…………

Ten years of experience and the confidence gained from Xerneas's Horn made Xerneas less fearful. She took the initiative to ask, "Xerneas—(Respected Xerneas, what do you wish to do?)"

Although not flustered, Xianbu still kept a low profile. It's not shameful to be a little cowardly when facing a divine beast of this level.

Suddenly, a voice came from Yveltal's throat, "Eefu? (What is your relationship with Him?)"

The voice sounded ancient and mysterious, like the whispers of an ancient god from the abyss.

Xenbu's heart tightened. Was he asking about himself and Xerneas?

She paused for a moment, pondering this question that could very well influence Yveltal's attitude.

A pair of sworn enemies who love and hate each other. When faced with an elf whose aura is very similar to that of its enemy, what kind of relationship would Yveltal hope to have with Xerneas?

Successor? Challenger

Xianbu had absolutely no clue.

But she dared not think for too long, fearing that a legendary elf like Yveltal might have the ability to see through truth and lies, so she could only reply bluntly, "Buyi—(It has nothing to do with me; I'm just a lucky one who found the Horn of Xerneas.)"

Silence fell over the forest in an instant.

Yveltal silently gazed at Xenbu, who was anxiously awaiting a response, and suddenly said, "Eefu—(Then let me see if you're worthy.)"

Before the words were finished, Yveltal's blood-red wings, which were suspended in mid-air, fluttered slightly, bending and spreading like tree branches, and then suddenly burst out with an extremely terrifying energy aura.

In an instant, pitch-black evil energy, like a black hole, surged wildly from the Bloodwing, then quickly condensed in the air into energy balls containing explosive energy, roaring like a vicious dragon trying to devour its target.

Sylveon!

"Ibu, get out of the way!"

Xia Chen, who was on edge, was the first to react, but at this moment, all he could do was offer a reminder.

However, Yveltal, who lacks martial ethics, releases its moves too quickly, almost in the microsecond. How can a mere veteran-level Pokémon face the might of a legendary beast?

As he watched the waves of evil energy, seemingly capable of devouring everything, about to engulf the Fairy Cloth, Xia Chen almost succumbed to despair.

At that moment, a dazzling five-colored light suddenly erupted from Xianbu's body, its power no less than that of the Evil Wave!

Chapter 165 Xenbow vs. Yveltal

The light was so dazzling that Xia Chen couldn't look directly at it, but he still tried to open his eyes to make sure that Xianbu was safe.

The wave of evil collided violently with the unknown technique that seemed to come from nowhere. The two terrifying energies, one bright and one dark, collided like Mars colliding with Earth, exploding with a deafening roar the instant they made contact.

The extremely high temperature generated by the energy collision caused an instant explosion, and layers of flames spread wildly outwards, distorting the air in the area to a considerable degree.

Clearly, Yveltal's sneak attack gained no advantage whatsoever; the two attacks were evenly matched!

Xia Chen was stunned. The energy that Xianbu had just unleashed had actually withstood Yveltal's attack?!

how can that be!

However, before he could even ponder this absurd and unbelievable event, a terrifying explosion generated by the attack swept through the air and hurtled towards him.

The city gate caught fire and affected the pond fish.

The aftershocks of a battle between mythical beasts, even without going all out, are something an ordinary human could not withstand.
