Elf: Seriously? You only get a cheat code when you're about to die?

Chapter 5 Finally... finally...

Anjie slept until late morning. After the setbacks of yesterday day and being scorned by the melting beast in the evening, he was feeling a bit listless today.

The first thing he did after getting up was to open his system interface. When he saw the system taskbar, he stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Anjie's system interface is divided into three parts.

The middle section contains his basic information. Below the information are several boxes. The first box is his backpack, which he can use to store some things, but he doesn't have much to store, so his backpack is empty.

The second box contains something called Happiness Points, which had previously been showing 0. Anjie had no idea what it was and asked Diancie, who said she didn't know either.

But today is different; the 0 in the happiness box has now become 100.

The third box is the online store, but the icon is always grayed out, and Anjie has no idea what the conditions are for opening it.

On the left side of the system interface is a book with the words "Recipe" written on it. Anjie can browse through it at will, but currently only one recipe, "Steamed Buns," is recorded in it.

The taskbar is on the right side of the system interface. Before the first task is started, the taskbar is empty. After he accepts the first task from Diancie, a line of text appears on it.

"Invite 10 Pokémon for 3 days. (1/10)"

Yesterday's task log showed: Invite 10 Pokémon, duration 3 days. (0/10)

Anjie had played games in his previous life, so he naturally knew what such a change meant. He had completed one-tenth of his mission!

It's obvious even to a fool that the molten beast from last night was responsible for this change.

Thinking of this, Anjie jumped out of bed, slipped on her slippers, and ran downstairs.

By this time, Tianxi had already gotten up and was humming a little tune while wiping the tables and chairs with a rag.

Anjie scanned the lobby on the first floor but didn't find any trace of the Melting Beast. She then looked at Diancie and asked, "Dianci, where's the Melting Beast?"

Tianxi stopped what she was doing and replied helplessly, "I didn't see it when I woke up this morning, it must be gone."

"Huh?" Anjie sounded a little disappointed. "They're leaving already!"

However, at this moment, Tianxi said, "By the way, Ange, you've earned your first Happiness Points. Do you want to activate the system shop?"

As a guiding spirit, after Angel gained happiness points, Diancie naturally learned of their purpose immediately.

An Jie was taken aback by his words, then said, "Explain to me first what 'Happiness Point' is, and what its connection is to the mall!"

Tianxi nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.

"Happiness Points are the reward Pokémon receive for gaining happiness when you feed them, Angel. Happiness Points are the energy that the system uses, and for you, Angel, they are the currency used to shop in the store. That's why the store will only open when you first gain Happiness Points."

After hearing Tianxi's explanation, Anjie suddenly realized, "Oh, I see! Then let's open the shop!" He couldn't wait to know what he could buy with Happiness Points in the shop.

"Okay!" Tianxi gave Anjie an OK sign, and Anjie's system interface popped up automatically, with a pop-up window appearing in the center of the screen.

"Open the in-game store?"

"Yes"

"no"

Anjie selected "Yes" without hesitation, and the moment he made the selection, the store icon below his personal information immediately turned from dark to light.

Anjie quickly opened the online store, and in an instant, his eyes were filled with a dazzling array of goods: pots and pans, clothes, shoes and socks, cars, ships and flying machines... almost everything was available, including the bath sand for Tianxi. As long as he had enough happiness points, he could buy any of these.

"Wow! This is amazing!" Anjie couldn't help but exclaim.

Seeing Angie so happy, Tianxi quickly came over curiously, "Let me see too, let me see quickly."

Anjie quickly bent down and approached Diancie to show her the shop. Because Diancie was the system's appointed guide spirit, she could see the system interface that others couldn't.

"Wow! So many things I've never seen before!" Diancie couldn't help but exclaim.

Before Angel and Diancie awoke, they lived 500 years ago. At that time, the technology in the Pokémon world was not as advanced as it is now, and many things naturally did not exist 500 years ago.

Anjie was a time traveler, so she was used to the goods in the mall, but Diancie was different; it was truly the first time she had ever seen those things.

Seeing that Tianxi seemed interested in this and that, Anjie really wanted to say generously, "Whichever one you like, I'll buy it for you!"

However, when he saw that his happiness points balance was only 100, he silently swallowed back the words he was about to say.

100 happiness points can only buy some useless little things; you can't buy anything else.

Let's save up a bit more!

After some research, Anjie discovered that although the shop sells seeds of various crops, it does not sell any ingredients or food. Although it sells Poké Balls, it does not sell Energy Cubes, Items, Berries, or other similar items.

Look at the price of a Poké Ball, 500 Happiness Points each, he can't afford it.

Oh well, he's not a trainer, so he doesn't need Pokémon in Poké Balls. If he can't afford it, he can't afford it!

After studying the mall, Anjie went upstairs to wash up and then planned to go out with Tianxi to see if they could attract more customers.

Although failing a mission isn't a big deal, failing on the very first mission would make him look pathetic! No, this absolutely cannot happen.

However, as soon as he and Tianxi reached the door, they saw a bouquet of flowers on the steps.

"Where did these flowers come from?" Anjie asked, puzzled.

Diancie tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Could it be a melting beast?"

The only creature they have any connection with on the Nibel Plateau is the molten beast from last night.

"Probably." Anjie smiled, bent down to pick up the bouquet, then brought it to her nose and sniffed it. The rich fragrance immediately filled her heart. "What a lovely little thing."

Anjie walked up to the tree-pillow koala's hut, intending to have it help guard the house today, when he heard Tianxi say hesitantly, "Anjie, why don't you stay home today? I can go out by myself. Maybe that will attract more customers."

Anjie was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then realized that it was indeed a good idea. After all, it was him that everyone feared and disliked, and if only Tianxi came forward, the situation would be much better.

After a few seconds of thought, Anjie nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll prepare breakfast at home and wait for you to bring your guests back."

Tianxi clenched her fist, full of fighting spirit, and said, "Leave it to me, I'll definitely bring the guest back!"

Angie and Tianxi then split up.

Tianxi went out to attract customers, while Ange went home to prepare food for the guests, and he also had to prepare breakfast for himself, Tianxi, and the tree-pillow bear.

Before going to the kitchen, however, he found a vase, filled it with some water, and then put the bouquet he had picked up in front of the door into it.

Anjie placed the vase on the front table in the hall, admired it for a few moments, and then turned and went into the kitchen.

Sure enough, Tianxi's consideration was correct. Without Ange's interference, it quickly attracted a guest back.

Anjie heard some noise outside while in the kitchen. He was about to go out and see what was going on when he suddenly remembered that he seemed to be disliked by Pokémon. So he stopped in his tracks and only peeked out half his head to observe the situation.

Diancie led a chubby, round Pokémon into her house, and the Pokémon looked around the store with great curiosity as it walked.

Anjie's eyes lit up.

So it's a Munchlax! Indeed, if it's this Pokémon, it's the easiest to recruit.

Munchlax is a Pokémon that can eat even more than Meltdown.

After reviewing Munchlax's stats, Ange thought to himself, "Wow, one of its IVs is maxed out! Looks like it's a nimble fat guy."

Both Snorlax and Munchlax are slow Pokémon, but this Munchlax has a perfect Speed ​​IV, which is really...

"Come on, come on, sit here." Diancie warmly welcomed the little Snorlax.

Snorlax obediently let Diancie pull him to sit in the chair.

The little Snorlax asked uncertainly, "G- ...

"Of course I do, I wouldn't lie to you," Tianxi assured it. "Wait a moment, I'll go get you some food."

The little Snorlax nodded and sat obediently.

Tianxi ran into the kitchen and asked, "Anjie, are the steamed buns ready?"

Anjie nodded and replied, "They're freshly steamed and still hot." As he spoke, he lifted the lid of the steamer, and a cloud of white steam immediately billowed out. He then took out one soft, white steamed bun after another.

Since Munchlax has a big appetite, Angel filled the food bowl to the brim.

The food bowls used to feed Pokémon in Ange's family restaurant are each at least the size of a washbasin.

Handing the food bowl to Diancie, Ange patted its shoulder and said, "Go on, don't keep the little Snorlax waiting."

"Okay." Tianxi nodded and ran out with her food bowl.

As Diancie came out of the kitchen with a steamed bun in her hand, she saw Snorlax with its eyes closed in blissful contentment, its nose constantly sniffing the air, clearly having caught the aroma of the steamed bun.

However, it followed Tianxi's instructions and remained seated without moving an inch.

When Diancie returned carrying a bowl of food, Snorlax's eyes lit up instantly, and a few glistening drops of liquid clung to the corners of its mouth.

It's delicious! I want to eat it!

Snorlax swallowed hard, its gaze never leaving the food bowl in Diancie's arms.

"Come on, eat up," Diancie said, placing the food bowl on the table in front of Snorlax.

Upon hearing this, the little Snorlax acted as if it had received a royal decree, grabbing a steamed bun and stuffing it into its mouth.

"Wow!!!" It's so delicious!

The little Munchlax, lacking in language, was unable to describe its feelings in words and could only express them through actions.

With one in its left hand and one in its right, the little Snorlax chewed heartily, and in the blink of an eye, only half of the steamed buns remained in the bowl.

Tianxi quickly said, "Eat slowly, eat slowly, the steamed bun won't run away."

"Gang~ Gang~" Is this called a steamed bun?

The little Snorlax, its mouth bulging, held up a steamed bun in its right hand and asked Diancie a question.

"That's right, it's called steamed bun," Tianxi nodded.

"Gum~" It's so delicious.

The little Snorlax couldn't help but say.

"Eat more if you like it," Diancie said, looking at the little Snorlax with a loving expression.

Anjie was ecstatic.

The happiness points column kept displaying:

+ 100

+ 100

+ 100

……

In a short while, the little Snorlax contributed 500 happiness points to him.

Anja had already learned from Diancie that different Pokémon provide different amounts of happiness points when they eat, depending on the strength of their happiness at the time; the stronger the happiness, the more happiness points are provided.

Clearly, Munchlax was feeling incredibly happy at that moment; no wonder it was so happy!

Anjie lay on the door frame, secretly observing the little Snorlax. Seeing it eating with great satisfaction, he felt a great sense of accomplishment.

Before long, he stared at the round, chubby little Munchlax, lost in thought, and couldn't help but imagine: Munchlax's fur must feel so soft and comfortable to touch, how wonderful it would be to cuddle it while sleeping...

The little Snorlax ate too fast and suddenly choked, so it pounded its chest. Diancie quickly brought it a large glass of water.

The little Snorlax picked up the water cup and gulped it down. After catching its breath, it grinned foolishly at Diancie.

Tianxi was amused by its silly antics.

After finishing off a whole bowl of steamed buns, the little Snorlax let out a satisfied burp, then asked expectantly, "Can I come again next time?"

Tianxi nodded and said, "Of course, but it will have to wait until at least tomorrow."

Each Pokémon can only eat here once a day.

Although the restaurant was built to benefit Pokémon, and the system is called the Pokémon Feeding System, it doesn't mean that Pokémon can just stay here every day and eat and wait to die. So each Pokémon can only come once a day, since it's free for Pokémon.

Even so, Snorlax was very satisfied. It jumped off the chair, patted itself for a while, and then suddenly plucked a tuft of fur and handed it to Diancie.

"Gang~~"

"Did you pay for the meal?" Tianxi asked.

"Gang~ Gang~"

The little Snorlax nodded repeatedly.

"Then I'll take it," Tianxi said, taking the tuft of hair.

Seeing that Diancie had accepted his payment for the meal, Munchlax was overjoyed and skipped away from the shop.

Only after Munchlax left did Anjay dare to come out of the kitchen.

ε(┬┬﹏┬┬)3 This sneaky feeling is awful! He really wants to pet Munchlax so badly, waaaaaah~~~

He looked at the dark blue fur in Diancie's hand, and saw a column of information appear in his Eye of Observation: Snorlax's fur can be used to make TM devices.

Move learning device?
