Elf-like Life

Chapter 83, Goddess and Witch

One last Shadow Ball!

Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom

Gengar, true to its word, never hesitated to use its power. However, just before the Shadow Ball was about to touch Charmander, incredible streams of pure white energy suddenly leaked out of Charmander's body.

It forms a powerful protective field, enveloping the little dragon's entire body.

【!!!】Gengar + Koffing + Zubat: !!!

That sudden surge of energy was exceptionally strong.

It was the divine power that had been hidden within Charmander's body and blessed by the goddess Gardevoir. In the critical moment just now, it successfully helped Charmander deflect 100% of the Shadow Ball's damage.

The energy leak caused Charmander to become completely exhausted, and he slowly closed his eyes, unable to hold on any longer.

Gas grenade: "Damn it!"

"Are humans really that disgusting? They resort to an invincible cheat when they can't win; it's utterly evil!"

Zubats became enraged in succession:

"Exactly! What else could this be but an invincibility cheat?"

"And he also has the protagonist's halo; the boss could have sent him to his death long ago!"

In short, whether it's an invincibility cheat or the protagonist's halo, it's all part of the game.

Everything that happened to Charmander was incomprehensible to Gengar, but it also piqued Gengar's interest even more.

Obviously, regarding this little fire dragon,

He also possesses a wealth of powerful energy hidden within him, which may be a rare energy unique to humans.

"Heh, that strong?"

Gengar's lips continued to curl upwards:

"If one or two Shadow Balls can be blocked, what about ten Shadow Balls in a row?"

Gengar instantly charged up its power, while Koffing and Zubat were incredibly excited, as they were finally fortunate enough to witness their boss's ultimate move in person.

Shadow Ball - Ten Consecutive Kills!

Farewell!

Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh (X10)

Ten Shadow Balls were already poised to strike behind Gengar. Charmander had already released a burst of holy energy, and the flames on its tail were so weak they could go out at any moment.

But it's not over yet.

The protective aura formed by sacred energy is only the beginning!

Just as Gengar was about to attack again,

The surrounding space suddenly turned into a spotless, pure white, which startled the Koffing and Zubat!

"Boss, boss, everything under our feet has turned white!"

"No way, boss! Aren't we in Steel Mountain? Why has everything around us turned white?!"

Gengar was alert and did not make a move.

At this moment, the rock walls surrounding Steel Mountain were completely covered by pure white space, giving the feeling of falling into a secret realm from which there was no escape.

The left side is white.

The top of the head is white.

Everything was white, in all directions.

The experienced Gengar, prioritizing composure, calmly stated:

"Don't be fooled. These are just white spaces that display superpower attributes. They are no different from the deceptive space in essence."

Zubat: "Is this some kind of spatial deception?"

Gas Bomb: "But boss, the Deception Space doesn't seem to have white ones, does it? It's so weird, why does it look a bit like the color of heaven?"

Zubat + Koffing: "Could it be...could it be that we're already dead?!"

Gengar had already noticed this. To be honest, all the Pokémon that fall into the pure white space for the first time think they have arrived in heaven.

Gengar exudes an overwhelming aura:

"Heh heh, who are you? Do you dare come out and meet me?"

Say it's too late, then it's fast,

The space controlled by Gardevoir had successfully filled the area around Gengar. She didn't intend to appear in her true form, but instead responded solemnly from within the space:

"You're not worth my time. You'd better know your place!"

The moment the goddess finished speaking, Gengar suddenly froze in place, motionless.

The next instant, Gardevoir deliberately flashed its own phantom image out of Charmander's body, as if its soul had left its body.

Gas bombs scare people to death first:

"Ghost, ghost! Aaaaaah!"

The supersonic bat was also trembling with fear, its little wings shaking. This time it was truly terrified; even its fangs were quivering.

"Boss, run! That was a ghost, wasn't it?!"

From Gengar's first-person perspective,

He tried to capture Gardevoir's true form using his most proficient perception, only to find that it was all in vain and his condition was getting worse.

Just like being trapped in the witch's space in the second season of Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World-.

For him now, Gardevoir...

She is the invincible witch in my heart.

Gengar:

……

…………

Gardevoir, that being should have died in the legend of the Nine-Tails, why has it reappeared now?

Could it be that she was reincarnated as Gardevoir?

If that's the case, then what exactly did I just see?

With 10 Shadow Balls no longer able to be fired, Gengar admitted that he had chickened out for a moment, and that he could no longer continue fighting simply because he heard Gardevoir's voice.

He remained rooted to the spot, motionless.

Gas grenade: "Boss, boss?"

Zubat: "Boss, what's wrong, boss? Run! Aaaaaaah!"

Gengar remained completely still, like a turtle, and he didn't know why he couldn't move.

In short, it is certain that he was deeply influenced by Gardevoir, and he himself could not explain why.

……

…………

Heh... Why does my body freeze completely and become unresponsive whenever I hear Gardevoir's voice?

This feeling is like,

The Witch's Curse!

Gengar said with difficulty:

"Ha... I can't move now, I'm under... that witch's curse..."

Upon hearing that their leader was cursed, the loyal Koffing and Zubat would never abandon Gengar. Without hesitation, they rushed over and lifted Gengar up.

"Third brother, let's quickly take the eldest and run away!"

"Second Brother, this is all white space around us, we can't get out!"

Panic is understandable.

In fact, Gardevoir did not choose to continue its scheme, but gradually restrained its aura and restored the white space covering the surrounding area.

In an instant, the surroundings returned to their original solid form as a mountain of steel.

With a "whoosh," at the last moment, Koffing and Zubat carried Gengar and hurriedly scurried down Minestone.

----split line----

Almost at the same time,

Officer Magneton and his Magnemites arrived late.

Because the wanted criminal Lada was knocked down, and the entire police force was located far from Steel Hill, it took them quite a while to get there.

[The wanted criminal Radamanthys has been successfully apprehended and brought to justice by Officer Magneton.]

The two teams of Magnemite bound Rattata to death, unaware that things were not so simple.

"Report! There's a Charmander and a Pikachu here, and they're both almost dead!"

Magneton quickly surveyed the area:

"What?! Isn't this the Starry Night Expedition Team that helped us so much last time?!"

"These heroes are extremely important; their lives must be absolutely protected!"

"All personnel mobilize for on-site rescue!"

How could Gardevoir be a witch? Of course, she must be our eternal goddess! Ahem, well then, dear readers, that concludes tonight's writing. A huge thank you to all of you! And please, vote, tip, add to your favorites, and invest in this chapter! That's all for this chapter!
