Chapter 221:Aromatisse's Aroma Veil
Added 2025-01-31 13:39:33 +0000 UTC"Don’t underestimate us."
Arin gripped her Poké Ball tightly. "We’re not the type to lose so easily."
As she spoke, she tossed out her Poké Ball. "Right, Persian?"
Bang~
"Persian~"
With a flash of red light, a sleek Persian appeared, licking its sharp claws before narrowing its eyes at Diancie.
This Persian was level 43, slightly higher than Diancie.
"Persian, Fake Out!"
Persian’s muscles tensed, and it shot forward like an arrow, charging straight at Diancie.
"Diancie, go!"
Diancie, seeing Persian charging toward her, suddenly flashed a bright light from the diamond crown on her head.
The light was so dazzling that Persian instinctively closed its eyes.
The next moment~
Boom~
A beam shot from the diamond crown, piercing straight through Persian’s body.
Arin stared in shock. "That’s Power Gem!"
Diancie had already battled multiple times on the farm’s arena.
Anyone paying attention would have noticed Diancie’s battle habits.
But this move, Power Gem, was something Diancie had never used before.
Caught completely off guard, Arin’s Persian was hit directly.
As Persian was sent flying, Diancie immediately followed up with Ancient Power.
The rest of the battle didn’t even require Natsume’s commands.
With the initial advantage and the relentless barrage of Rock Tomb, Persian quickly fell to Diancie’s rock moves.
"Match ends."
Rotom looked at the fallen Persian and announced the result.
"Persian is unable to battle. Diancie wins."
"Yay~"
After the battle, Diancie happily ran over to Natsume. "Natsume, I won again!"
"Diancie is getting stronger and stronger."
Natsume noticed Kiko and Mikoharu waving from the edge of the crowd and walked over with Diancie.
"Finally awake, huh?"
Kiko nodded. "Yeah, I just woke up and came to watch your battle."
"Flygon~"
As Kiko was talking to Natsume, the sound of Flygon echoed from the sky.
In the distance, a Flygon was flying toward them.
Kiko looked up at the approaching Flygon and asked, slightly uneasy, "Is it Misaki coming back?"
Kiko had a rough idea of the special relationship between Natsume and Misaki.
It just hadn’t been openly acknowledged yet.
In the Japan League of this world, marriage and responsibility weren’t as emphasized as in Natsume’s previous life.
People were more focused on pursuing dreams and realizing their self-worth, so it wasn’t uncommon for people to abandon their families.
Moreover, having great strength often came with privileges, and many regions had open customs. So, for someone powerful, having multiple partners wasn’t considered particularly scandalous.
In fact, some countries in this world even allowed marriages between humans and Pokémon.
Some states in the Unova League even had peculiar laws allowing one human spouse and one Pokémon spouse.
In simple terms, you could marry both a human and a Pokémon.
If the child born was a Pokémon, they could also gain citizenship.
Such were the differences in this world.
Kiko wasn’t overly conservative, but the thought still made her feel a bit awkward.
For some reason, an image of herself, Natsume, and Misaki together in bed popped into her mind.
Sigh~
Kiko quickly rubbed her face and then stomped on Natsume’s foot in frustration.
It was all Natsume’s fault for being so wild last night, leaving her still not fully recovered. Now she was even having these random thoughts.
Natsume looked at Kiko, puzzled. "What’s wrong?"
Kiko puffed out her cheeks. "Nothing."
"Alright."
Natsume didn’t press further, simply saying, "But that’s not Misaki’s Flygon."
"Misaki just returned to the ranch a few days ago. She probably won’t be coming back anytime soon."
This was a level 66 Flygon.
In terms of strength, it was quite impressive.
The Flygon began to descend.
"It’s a foreigner."
Mikoharu, sitting on Mamoswine, could see the person on Flygon’s back and quickly jumped down.
The Flygon landed nearby.
A woman and an Aromatisse stepped off its back.
"Hello, I’m Sorina."
Sorina smiled warmly as she greeted everyone.
Sorina was a woman with delicate features, her sky-blue eyes particularly striking.
Red lips, wavy long hair.
Her neck, wrists, and earlobes were adorned with metallic accessories.
"Natsume."
Gardevoir’s voice suddenly echoed in Natsume’s mind.
"I can’t sense her emotions."
Natsume glanced at the Aromatisse beside Sorina.
Name: Aromatisse
Type: Fairy
Level: Lv. 65
Ability: Aroma Veil
Moves: Aromatherapy, Misty Terrain, Psychic, Trick Room
Potential: Elite
This Aromatisse was emitting a peculiar energy.
The energy flickered like light points, almost like a mist.
"This Aromatisse’s ability is Aroma Veil. It can block psychic abilities with a unique power."
After explaining Aromatisse’s ability to Gardevoir in his mind, Natsume turned to the woman. "What brings you here?"
Sorina first glanced at Diancie, then smiled at Natsume. "I heard that within the Japan League, there’s a place called the Hometown of the Gods, where many legendary Pokémon can be seen. So, I wanted to see it for myself."
"I didn’t expect to be so lucky. I just arrived and already saw the legendary Princess Diancie."
Sorina looked at Diancie and complimented, "You’re so beautiful, Princess Diancie."
Diancie responded politely, "Thank you. You are too~"
Many people in this world sought out legendary Pokémon.
Given the recent changes on the farm, it wasn’t surprising that someone like Sorina would show up.
Sorina turned to Natsume. "Gym Leader Natsume, may I take a look around your farm?"
"The scenery here looks stunning."
"Of course."
Natsume didn’t mind. "The area below the mountain isn’t open to the public, but you’re free to explore the rest."
Sorina seemed like any other tourist.
She recalled her Flygon and simply wandered around the farm with her Aromatisse.
Natsume glanced at her briefly before turning his attention back.
Natsume said to Kiko, "I’ll be heading out for a bit. You can show Mikoharu around the farm."
Kiko asked curiously, "Is something going on?"
"Nothing major."
Natsume explained, "I’m just planning to go out to sea with Gardevoir to catch a group of Clauncher."
"If all goes well, I should be back by dinner."
Mikoharu exclaimed, "Oh, you’re going to catch them already?"
Kiko looked at Mikoharu, puzzled. "You knew about this?"
Mikoharu nodded. "Yeah, Gym Leader Natsume and Gardevoir mentioned it during breakfast."
"I thought Gym Leader Natsume was just talking casually."
