Wanjie: Only I Time Travel Comprehensive Comic

“This reaction…”

Joey was stunned. After seeing Jirachi wanting to hug her, she looked at Du Ming carefully and then shook her head. Now was not the time for her to think too much.

She glanced at Jirachi.

She knew something about Jirachi, a legendary elf from their Hoenn region.

Of course, she only heard about it recently. If it weren't for the "fake Groudon incident" that happened some time ago, she would have only heard of Jirachi's name in school and would not have specifically looked up what Jirachi looked like.

"Sir, I'm going to start the treatment. Jirachi should listen to you. You can try to make it let go." Joey's eyes were always on Jirachi, and his tone was a little anxious.

"I'll try... Also, just call me Du Ming."

Du Ming nodded and looked into Jirachi's clear eyes: "Be good, let go of your hand, I will never leave."

"Well..."

Jirachi looked at Du Ming with round eyes, unwilling to leave. After a moment, perhaps he finally understood what Du Ming meant, but he slowly loosened his hands around Du Ming.

But the little hands kept rising up, trying to grab Du Ming, reluctant to let go.

"…Du Ming, could you please stay in the room? You don't have to do anything."

"I understand." Du Ming nodded.

He could feel Jirachi's temporary dependence on him as his savior, and his staying here should be able to give Jirachi some psychological comfort.

Joy came to a machine with a large upright cylindrical transparent cover. At both ends of the transparent cover were two rows of machines with many buttons. She started the machine first, waited for the indicator light to light up, and then pressed a red button.

Suddenly, the transparent cover opened automatically.

"Happiny, come here, let's push Jirachi's bed."

After Joey and Happiny pushed one-third of Jirachi's bed into the transparent cover, they pressed a blue button next to the transparent cover.

As Jirachi looked at Du Ming with a slightly panicked look, Jirachi's body floated up from the bed and hovered in the transparent cover.

"foam…"

Jirachi groaned in panic and looked at Du Ming.

"Don't worry, Mr. Du Ming is here!"

Miss Joy smiled kindly, and she and Happiny pulled the bed out of the transparent cover, then pressed the button again and slowly closed the transparent cover.

"This is a burn healing vessel..."

Not only was she talking to Jirachi, she was also talking to Du Ming. Miss Joy explained while operating the machine.

Inside the transparent cover, transparent green liquid slowly rose from the bottom and began to occupy the space inside the cover.

"The liquid in here is the full recovery solution V3." Seeing the liquid occupying the transparent cover as usual, Joey breathed a sigh of relief:

“全复药液能够恢复精灵受到的多种伤势，相比起V1的13种和V2的21种，V3的版本能够恢复多达36种伤势。”

"Don't worry~" Joey smiled and talked to Jirachi in the hood: "It will be a little uncomfortable at first, but it will only take a short while, and you can breathe normally. This is a full recovery liquid specially made for infant elves."

The liquid slowly submerged Jirachi. Jirachi nervously closed his eyes. After a while, he slowly opened them and looked around curiously in the liquid, looking at Du Ming.

Joey checked all the data of the recovery solution again, and then he felt relieved.

“This is initial treatment.”

Joey wiped the sweat off his face and said, “The recovery liquid contains valuable nutrients, as well as super life energy and recovery energy. These energies are generated, extracted and refined from the elves’ bodies, which are very helpful for the recovery of the elves.

“Once you’ve recovered to a certain degree, I’ll do some more treatment… Happy Egg, I’ll leave the rest to you for now.”

“Na-hiss—”

She took a deep breath, looked at Du Ming again, and said in a slightly serious tone:

"Mr. Du Ming, can you tell me how Jirachi got such severe burns? Excuse me, Jirachi is a legendary elf, I have the responsibility to understand the situation. In addition, if necessary, I will also inform Miss Junsha of what happened here..."

Du Ming glanced at Jirachi who was soaked in the recovery potion.

Jirachi had consumed a lot of his energy due to the burns, and now he seemed to feel comfortable during the treatment. He slowly closed his eyes, his face calm, and fell asleep.

Nodding, Du Ming briefly told Miss Joy about his encounter with Jirachi and how Jirachi got injured, starting from when he entered the identification center.

“…You can ask Daigo and Tiexuan about all these.” Du Ming said.

"Huh, it's good to have Mr. Dawu and Master Tiexuan as witnesses... Is that really the case? That makes sense."

Miss Joy smiled:

"Mr. Du Ming, I need to discuss another important matter with you now. What do you think about Jirachi's future and how do you want to arrange it?"

"Should I consider it——" Du Ming shook his head and said, "Jirachi is not my spirit. From the source, I may need to think about it first..."

"No, now you are the only one who is qualified!"

Miss Joy interrupted Du Ming and asked, "Have you heard of 'Inscription'?"

"Engraving?" A hint of doubt flashed in Du Ming's eyes.

"Imprint, inscription, mark, etc., all mean the same thing."

Du Ming understood instantly that the imprinting that Joey was talking about was an animal behavior, which refers to the phenomenon that newborn animals will imitate the moving object they see for the first time and follow the object closely.

"So to put it simply, what you mean is... Jirachi treats me as her mother?" Du Ming complained.

"Yes."

The two of them simultaneously turned their gazes to the soaked Jirachi, who looked relaxed, as if he was having a good dream.

"It was just born?" Du Ming asked in disbelief.

Indeed, this Jirachi was smaller than Du Ming remembered, but Du Ming had not considered the possibility that it was just born.

"From the look of its behavior, that's it."

Miss Joy said with emotion: "I have never seen the phenomenon of legendary elves imprinting. From the situation of ordinary elves, before it is one year old, it will want to stick to you very much. If you force it to leave, it will cause serious mental damage to the elf and even cause mental trauma.

“Elves mature earlier than humans, and can develop a relatively complete body structure after the age of one.

“It is also because of this that, under normal circumstances, trainers are not allowed to capture and breed most Pokémon in their infancy, that is, Pokémon before the age of 1 to 2.

“Of course, Mr. Du Ming’s words should be handled in accordance with special circumstances.

"Du Ming, I think the Pokémon League in the Hoenn region will definitely issue a document soon, requiring you to take care of Jirachi until Jirachi has a certain level of intelligence and self-care ability."

"1 years..."

Du Ming raised his eyebrows.

The timing is really perfect.

1 year. He would most likely be in the Elf World for less than 1 year. If it exceeded 1 year, he estimated that the probability of completing the world mission would be significantly reduced.

Apparently—

He needs to make some decisions.

World quests, Jirachi's care and future, Leaf and her 6 elves, the Otherworld Sphere, the Main World...

Several words turned in Du Ming's mind.
