Elf: Is the bear apprentice the weakest? I'll shatter the sky with my fists.

We thoroughly enjoyed the meal.

But after finishing the meal, they were faced with another problem.

Who am I going to stay with tonight?

An eerie silence fell over the living room after the meal.

Four pairs of eyes were fixed on Li Chen, and even Reshiram's Poké Ball silently rolled a little further away.

The snowflakes falling outside the window seemed to freeze in mid-air, awaiting Li Chen's momentous decision.

Eileen's elven ears twitched sensitively, and her fingertips unconsciously traced a heart shape on the tablecloth.

Xin Yong pretended to adjust her skirt, but actually moved the chair three inches towards Li Chen.

Sakurada Yukari stretched out her finger and pointed to her room.

Ao Shiyao lowered her head to clear the dishes, but her long, sea-blue hair quietly wrapped around Li Chen's wrist.

"How about..."

As soon as Li Chen opened his mouth, all four girls straightened their backs.

"Suggest drawing lots?"

Reshiram's Poké Ball suddenly burst into flames, exploding into fireworks-like patterns above everyone's heads:

"Or should we all sleep in the living room?"

Reshiram's fiery runes were still flickering in the air when Eileen had already clung to Li Chen like an octopus.

"You promised me!"

She buried her face in Li Chen's neck, her voice muffled, "You promised to spend quality time with me after I'm resurrected..."

Xin Yong suddenly slammed her hand on the table and stood up: "I was here first!"

At that moment, Sakurada Yukari's teaspoon suddenly appeared between the two of them: "According to Master's schedule, today should be the day he instructs me on Pokémon battles!"

Ao Shiyao silently folded the dishcloth into a small square, but deliberately turned the tap on full blast.

pat!

The entire villa suddenly lost power, and in the darkness, only Li Chen's helpless sigh could be heard: "Looks like tonight..."

He snapped his fingers, and Rahiram appeared, his tail flames illuminating the center of the living room once more.

Five sets of bedding, laid out at some unknown time, were neatly arranged together.

Four pairs of eyes, like searchlights, locked onto that "strategic location".

New problems have emerged.

Who can rely on Li Chen the most recently?

There were only two places around Li Chen, but there were four of them here!

Even if Ao Shiyao doesn't want it, there has to be someone on the outside!

In response, Ao Shiyao silently picked up her bedding and prepared to retreat to the outer circle, but her wrist was grabbed by Li Chen.

"Shiyao and Xinyong are getting closer to me today, and we'll take turns tomorrow."

......

......

The next day arrived.

Li Chen woke up early and, before they woke up, left the room to start a new day.

In the courtyard where the morning mist had not yet dissipated, frost flowers condensed on the grass blades like tiny diamonds.

Li Chen lightly touched the Master Ball at his waist with his fingertips, and the ice crystal chains wrapped around the ball's shell snapped instantly.

With a burst of blue light, Kyurem's massive body silently descended, and the temperature in the entire backyard plummeted ten degrees the moment its claws touched the ground.

The white frost spread along the soles of Li Chen's boots, but automatically avoided touching the hem of his clothes.

Kyurem folded its ice wings, looked down at Li Chen, and the white mist it exhaled condensed into obscure characters in the air.

"You smell like Tao Dailang."

Li Chen chuckled softly, flicking a few pink crystals from his sleeve: "I played along with it in a play last night. Now, let's get down to business."

Kyurem's ice wings suddenly unfurled, enveloping the entire backyard in a barrier of absolute zero.

The morning light was refracted into countless rainbows, creating an encrypted space for dialogue between the two.

Even Reshiram couldn't glimpse the true domain of the ice dragon...

"Your strength... doesn't seem to have fully recovered yet?"

Li Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and asked directly.

"......"

Kyurem remained silent for a moment, and finally responded with only a low nasal sound.

Seeing that it was unwilling to talk more, Li Chen changed the subject: "I'm curious, if it were to merge with Reshiram and Zekrom... would they be able to separate again?"

Kyurem's icy eyes flickered slightly, as if he were weighing the issue.

It slowly raised its dragon head, first nodding solemnly, then shaking its head thoughtfully. Its heavy dragon wings fluttered gently in the cold mist, making a metallic scraping sound.

It is theoretically feasible, but in practice it would come at an unpredictable cost.

What is the price?

Li Chen frowned slightly, his gaze fixed on Kyurem.

Kyurem's deep voice echoed through the cold mist, each word deliberate and clear: "A Gene Wedge is needed."

Its dragon claws were slightly raised, and frost condensed in the air, emphasizing the importance of the item.

"..."

[System, do you sell this kind of thing?]

Li Chen chose to consult the system.

Yes, 10,000 system points.

How many points do I have now?

【5...】

Five thousand? That's alright.

【50. 】

【? 】

You thought Eileen's clothes were free?

[Damn, you didn't say that either!]

[You didn't ask, host.]

I don't care, just conjure one up right now.

【? ? ? 】

The system was dumbfounded.

What do you mean I should quickly conjure one up?

I may not be human, but Li Chen, you're a real dog!

They can even do something as unbelievable as using the system for free!

[What are you doing? You're not going to give it to me? Believe me or not, I won't call you again! I'll delete your AI settings, you hear me!]

【No, no, no!】

The system was stunned by Li Chen's words and quickly cleared out its 50 system points, then threw out a piece of gene wedge.

Then, Kyurem saw Li Chen take out the Gene Wedge.

Is this it?

Kyurem's pupils suddenly contracted, his vertical pupils fixed on the wedge-shaped crystal in Li Chen's hand that emitted a glow.

Its dragon wings suddenly spread open, stirring up a bone-chilling cold current, and even the surrounding air seemed to tremble.

"This... is impossible..."

Its voice was deep and resonant, carrying an incredible vibration.

The Gene Wedge is actually in Li Chen's hands!

Chapter 560 Galar Region

"Now, can we talk about the terms?"

Li Chen lightly twirled the gene wedge with his fingertips, the crystal shimmering with a mysterious light between his fingers.

He looked up and stared directly at Kyurem, his voice soft but carrying an undeniable air of authority:

"I need your power. If Reshiram, Zekrom, and you become one, even Necrozma would be no match for you, right?"

A sharp glint flashed in Kyurem's eyes, and his deep voice echoed in the icy mist: "Nothing to fear."

"However... it's nothing to worry about in the short term."

Kyurem's dragon claws carved several deep cracks in the ice, a hint of solemnity flashing in his eyes.

"Necrozma..."

It growled, its voice unusually tinged with fear, "Even with its power diminished, it is by no means an easy opponent."

Ice crystals floated restlessly around it, echoing the turmoil within its heart.

"Based on my current condition... the outcome is uncertain."

It slowly raised its head, its gaze falling on the gene wedge, its burning fighting spirit and icy rationality intertwining in its vertical pupils.

"I see."

Li Chen nodded slightly, his fingertips gently stroking the surface of the Gene Wedge. "So the previous operation wouldn't have left you to face that monster alone."

He looked up at the rolling clouds in the distance, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes: "Looks like I'll have to find some reliable help..."

"Whose help do you intend to seek?"

Kyurem's deep voice carried obvious confusion, and his tail left a trail of anxiety on the ice.

"Judging from the legendary beings that have descended to the present world..." Its gaze swept across the sky, "The first-class legendary combat power has long been completely destroyed."

Ice crystals condense and break between its nostrils, emphasizing this cruel reality.

"And trustworthy allies..."

It turned and stared at Li Chen, "They're all basically here."

The implication is that the assistance they can rely on is extremely limited.

"Of course I know." Li Chen's lips curled into a meaningful smile as his fingertips lightly stroked the strange pearl that had suddenly appeared at his waist.

A stream of light flowed out from inside the jewel, and the space began to ripple like water.

"Palukia - Tear Through Space".

Dialga – Through Time.

“Giratina – Connecting Dimensions”.

With each name he uttered, the jewel emitted an even brighter light.

"Send me back to the real Pokémon world one more time."

As soon as he finished speaking, the pearl suddenly burst forth with a rainbow of light that pierced through the heavens and earth, and the surrounding scenery began to distort and change.

Kyurem watched this scene in shock; it had never imagined that this human could directly summon the power of the three dragons of time and space!

"Wait! Honey..."
