Elves: Starting from Carlos

"Are you leaving?"

Just as I closed the door, Serena's voice came out from the empty corridor, with a hint of surprise in her tone.

The backpack on Mufeng's back already revealed his purpose. Otherwise, who would dress so neatly all day long when staying at the Pokémon Center?

He turned around and faced Serena with a small smile on his face, "Well, I'm leaving now."

"So soon?" Serena frowned slightly, a hint of confusion in her eyes, "We are all going to Biyi City, why can't we go together?"

"Sorry, I have my own plans." Mu Feng said slowly, his tone mixed with a hint of apology, but his eyes were deep and firm.

The journey that Xiaozhi and others are about to embark on and the stories that will happen along the way have already been foreseen in the anime.

If he continues to intervene, there are only two possibilities.

Either you replace the protagonist with yourself and lead a new plot, but... the plot is just a modification of the original one, with additions or subtractions, and it will most likely be not much different from the original.

Or he could be willing to become a supporting role, accompanying Xiaozhi and going through all kinds of twists and turns with him. However, such a role positioning would undoubtedly be a bit boring for him.

So, staying in the protagonist group has its pros and cons, but compared to this, he prefers to go his own way, to explore and create his own story.

"Okay, I'll tell them for you." Serena sighed helplessly, with a hint of regret in her eyes.

I had been thinking of going to Biyi City together, and asking him about desserts on the way, but it seems that’s not possible now.

"Thank you."

After enjoying breakfast, Mu Feng rode away from the place on his Dragonite.

A few days later…

Biyi City is located in the northwest of the Kalos region, bordering two main roads leading to the two cities, and is also divided into two parts: the mountaintop and the coast.

It has the reputation of being a leisure resort, where the ocean, trees and light rail blend together. It is a small city rich in nature and culture.

Biyi Gym, this is a huge tree with a thick and ancient trunk, as if it is the guardian of this land.

It is situated on a vast grassland, surrounded by rolling green hills and towering mountains in the distance.

A white-haired young man walked on the wooden ladder leading to the top of the giant tree, with a gentle and determined light in his eyes and a smile full of expectation on his face.

After walking for a long time, Mu Feng finally reached the last step and stepped over the rough wooden threshold with one foot firmly planted, just like a climber finally reaching the top of the mountain.

Looking up, I found a battle field in the center of this open area.

"Is it a challenger?" An old laugh came from not far away.

He turned around and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see an old man walking slowly towards him.

He had his hat pulled low, his back slightly bent, his hands behind his back, a huge pair of iron scissors hanging on the outside of his right leg, a kind smile on his face, and a hint of deep wisdom in his eyes.

"Hello, Mr. Fu, I am Mufeng." Mufeng greeted Mr. Fu in a tone that was both respectful and confident.

Then he stated his purpose in a challenger's manner: "I came here to challenge you to the Hibiki Dojo."

Master Fu looked at Mu Feng carefully, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, "Don't worry, come with me first."

Mu Feng followed Fu Ye's footsteps and walked into a tree hole.

The space inside this tree hole is much more spacious than it appears from the outside. It is surrounded by rows of bookshelves. In the center of the tree hole, there is a wooden round table carved from a thick tree trunk and several chairs also made of trees, creating a quaint and tranquil atmosphere.

"I just picked some good tea. Come and taste it."

As soon as Mr. Fu finished speaking, a young man walked over from the side.

Holding two cups of steaming tea in his hands, he slowly walked to Fu Ye and Mu Feng.

Then he carefully placed the teacups one by one on the wooden table in front of them.

In the teacup, the tea leaves slowly expand in the hot water, emitting a faint fragrance.

"Although I seldom drink tea, judging from its appearance, this should be a good tea." Mu Feng couldn't help but exclaimed as he looked at the light green tea in the cup.

He picked up the teacup, sniffed the tea lightly, and then took a sip carefully.

When the tea goes in your mouth, a fresh taste spreads in your mouth, with a hint of sweetness and a touch of bitterness, which makes people linger in the aftertaste.

Mu Feng closed his eyes and savored the unique feeling brought by this cup of tea. It seemed as if the whole world had quieted down, leaving only the fragrance of tea and his inner tranquility.

Uncle Fu looked at Mu Feng's reaction and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

With his years of experience, he could tell from his demeanor and temperament that this young challenger was no ordinary person.

At Master Fu's signal, Mu Feng took the scissors and began to help him trim the plants in the gym.

His movements were careful and skillful. He carefully trimmed every branch and leaf to ensure that the environment of the gym was clean and orderly.

After completing the task, Mu Feng simply washed his hands and headed to the battle site.

At this time, Mr. Fu and the referee had already arrived, and they were waiting for Mu Feng's arrival.

Mu Feng inadvertently turned his head and his eyes fell on his shoulder, and found that Tian Zhuzhu had run out at some point.

The little guy was leaning comfortably on his neck, sleeping soundly, with a trace of liquid still hanging from the corner of his mouth.

Looking at Tian Zhuzhu's innocent sleeping posture, he couldn't help but reveal a malicious smile.

"Now begins the gym battle between the gym leader Fu Ye and the opponent Mu Feng." As the referee announced, the atmosphere in the Biyi Gym suddenly became tense and solemn. "Both sides will use three Pokémon. In addition, only the challenger is allowed to change Pokémon in the middle of the battle."

The Hitotsuba Gym, known for its Grass-type attribute, counters Flying, Poison, Bug, Fire, and Ice.

But Mu Feng didn't care about it. He looked calm and his eyes revealed his anticipation and confidence in the challenge.

Apart from the two gyms that can predict the future and have Mega Blizzard King, which will bring him some pressure, he is absolutely confident that he can win against the rest of the gyms.

"It seems that you have already decided which Pokémon to use." Seeing how calm he was, Mr. Fu on the opposite side smiled even more kindly.
