Pokémon: Trainers Returning from Monster Hunter

"what?"

Oreki never expected that five or six years after graduating from Orange Academy, someone would still recognize him.

Hmm... I'm nowhere to be seen in the academy anymore, but my legend still circulates?

Thinking back on his experience studying at Orange Academy, he had a lot to say.

The academy accepts people from all regions and of all ages, which is commendable.

However, the content taught was mostly related to Pokémon.

Some classes also require participants to bring their Pokémon to participate in friendly battles within their groups.

This was hard for Oreki, who was afraid of Pokémon at the time, to accept.

Even so, his theoretical course grades were among the best, and he even graduated first in all courses except for Pokémon Battle and Training.

Unfortunately, because he absolutely refused to catch Pokémon, he received zero marks for the two courses that required Pokémon cooperation and had high weight.

This resulted in his final score being less than ideal.

Even so, there are still people who can remember you.

So, academic achievers always have an aura of excellence, right?

"Hehe~"

Knowing that his reaction was a bit too strong, Qishu tried to get away with it by being cute.

"For someone like me who's terrible at theory courses, Oreki-senpai is someone I have to 'worship' before every exam, hehe~"

Okay... it turns out it's the classic "hang up Kobe posters, but not Conan posters" segment.

Because failing a course is harder than not failing one!

Real-life exam questions are not as simple as those in the game from my previous life.

You really will fail your courses if you don't study hard, although it won't affect your graduation.

That's a good point too.

After this little incident, the comments section became noticeably more active.

Some people have even started praying, hoping they won't fail their midterms.

This gave Oreki the illusion that he had already passed away.

Since no one else is asking, I'll ask! Senior, did you really not have a commander during your battle just now?

at last.

Oreki found a question he could answer.

He didn't hesitate; he was straightforward.

"Of course there's a leader, and it's a leader who commands with his heart."

Can I interpret this as a tacit understanding between us?

"No, using the 'heart' to command refers to 'telepathy.'"

【? ? ? 】

【¿ ¿ ¿ ¿ 】

【ah??】

The comments section went completely wild.

[Not a senior? Are you serious?]

[This makes us loud, yelling trainers look really stupid.]

Kiju didn't expect Oreki to say it so simply and plainly.

The reason she said she didn't know what to interview was because she suddenly felt that asking such a question directly would be an invasion of the other person's privacy, and she was too embarrassed to ask.

The way streamers are: viewers in the chat can just say whatever they want, but the streamers have a lot more to consider.

She timidly raised her right hand, which was covered by a long sleeve, and asked, "Does senior mean you possess special abilities, like superpowers?"

"That's right."

Origami nodded.

"Meow~"

The dozing New Leaf Cat responded softly.

Oreki never intended to hide his talents.

After spending so much time in the New World, if you finally manage to travel back and are still hesitant and timid, then all that time spent there was for nothing.

This can be seen from the fact that he revealed the contents of the stone slab to Zhu Lan without reservation last night.

The same principle applies to cat food.

Even when New Leaf Cat's abilities upgrade in the future and he is able to make higher-level cat food, he will consider selling the lower-level cat food.

High-grade energy cubes can be sold, and so can cat food!

Make money, not shabby.

As for potential dangers.

All I want to say is—the Hoenn stage is here, come if you dare.

You can beat Shin-Ye-Nyan, but can you beat me?

I have a question for you!

Having said all that, Qi Shu didn't hold back and asked the question she most wanted to know.

"Was Shin-chan's use of the claw attack to inflict burns on Asahi also part of your plan, senior?"

Boom boom boom!

Just then, a knock sounded on the door.

"I'm coming in, Oreki-sensei."

The door to the lounge was pushed open, and Du Juan, holding a learning machine, stared at the two people sitting side by side in the room, and immediately froze on the spot.

"Did I... arrive at the wrong time?"

"No, no, no!"

Qi Shu quickly waved his hand, "Miss Du Juan, you've come at just the right time!"

"what?"

"Hmm?" Qi Shu tilted his head, puzzled. "Don't you want to know why Shin-Ye-Nyan could burn Chao Bei-Nose?"

"Ah! You mean that?! Of course I want to know! Hahaha..."

Du Juan smiled awkwardly.

Really!

What are you thinking? They're still live streaming!

Du Juan, you're punished by not being allowed to read Miss Wanlong's teen novels for three days!

After "punishing herself with three cups," she quickly moved a chair over and sat obediently next to the two of them, placing her hands on her thighs in pantyhose, just like a good student listening attentively in class.

"There's no need to be so formal..."

As soon as he said it, he thought about it again and realized that the other person could indeed be considered his student, so Oreki let her go.

"The reason why Shin-Ye-Nyan was able to burn Asa-Nii-Nose is because of a special dish."

"Similar to an energy cube or a Padia sandwich?" Qishu asked rhetorically.

"almost."

When the topic of Padia sandwiches came up, Oreki fell silent.

Question: Which cover artist can be bribed with just a sandwich?

So, where can I buy it?

it is good!

I love how well the comments match up.

Oreki replied casually, "You can't buy them. These are homemade by Shin-chan and me."

Upon hearing this, the live chat erupted once again.

[Huh? Is that right? A mythologist? Possesses telepathy? Can even cook special dishes?]

Name your price, I'll have my housekeeper come and pick it up myself, I'll take as many as you have!

[Senior, do you still need any Pokémon?]

"..."

Although some strange comments appeared, overall it met Oreki's expectations.

The opportunity was rare, and he needed to attract as much attention as possible to pave the way for his ultimate goal.

So far, everything is going smoothly!

With the help of bullet comments and generous gifts, the number of viewers in the live stream quickly exceeded 30,000.

Qi Shu's heart pounded nonstop as he witnessed the whole thing.

really!

The choice of live stream material today was absolutely correct!

Oreki-senpai was awesome too!

The number of viewers is skyrocketing, just like King Eel leaping over the Dragon Gate!

Shouldn't we find an opportunity to properly thank our senior?

A while later.

With the number of people no longer increasing, Oreki finally revealed his true intentions!

"Ah, I just saw someone ask me if I have an account. Yes, bro, I do. After this interview, I'll register an account and name it 'Oriki'."

"If you're interested in unique dishes, please follow me! I'll post any sales information in my feed as soon as it becomes available. Of course, you can also send me a private message with any questions about cultivation or mythology/history. Just remember to make sure you're verified as an official follower!"

"Huh?" Du Juan, the well-behaved student, couldn't help but raise her hand and ask, "Why didn't I see this comment?"

[Exactly, who asked?]

[You're making up comments, huh?]

I confess, I asked.

Oreki remained completely calm and composed.

It's not unreasonable for me to take a little bit of the traffic I generated for Qishu, right?

I glanced over and saw that the other person was happily shaking the Magnemite doll, clearly not paying any attention to it.

The more I look at this adorable, strange tree, the more pleasing it becomes.

"It's getting late, let's call it a day. Bye, Shin-neko."

"Meow... Ha~"

Mission accomplished, let's make a run for it!

Picking up the learning machine, Oreki vanished from the lounge in a flash, leaving Kiju and Dujuan looking at each other in bewilderment.

Wow! That's fast!

[The escape trait has been activated, it's said]
