I, the Pokémon Master, now resign

"This... this... these guys..."

Bai Chen in the cooking area at the front desk let out a long sigh, and even the movements of his hands slowed down a lot, and now he can only pray that their commissions are out of date.

......

401 Commission from Iron Island, unlimited request +1

"Ah... Really, I didn't expect so many letters... What happened in the past month? Why didn't anyone remind me, those guys..."

Looking at the desktop piled up with entrusted letters, Bai Chen couldn't help but feel powerless.

Don't say that so many commissions are finished, it is not an easy task to just read them and record them on his action calendar. Now he has no other choice but to pray. It's past the statute of limitations, so you don't need to do it.

Bai Chen shook his head, and brought a portion of fried noodles and milk from the dinner plate to Ma Li, while he put the rest of the sandwich and coffee that he decided to make on the spur of the moment in the free space on the table.

"Is it okay to eat a little like this?"

Ma Li was sitting on the small table at the side of Master Room, and before she even moved her chopsticks, she noticed that Bai Chen's dinner was unexpectedly small.

Although Bai Chen's body is relatively thin, he usually eats a lot. According to him, it's because he doesn't travel anymore, so there is nothing to do at ordinary times. He can only eat something to pass the time, so look at When Bai Chen's dinner today was only so small, Ma Li's first thought was curiosity.

"No idea......"

Bai Chen put the sandwich into his mouth, and said vaguely:

"Originally... wo.. I also planned to eat fried noodles, but after hearing you say that there are more than 20 commission letters here, I lost my appetite..."

Bai Chen casually opened one of the letters, and said weakly.

In his opinion, the most unappetizing thing in this world is to work while eating. Even the delicious food will become tasteless when working. Instead of eating delicious food in such a reluctant situation Yes, it would be better to just eat a little bread or something to cope with it.

"Yeah.....?"

Mary tilted her head after eating a mouthful of fried noodles, as if she didn't really understand.

But it's true, after all, Mary doesn't have a formal job to do now, some things can only be understood when she grows up.

......

Just like that, in order not to disturb Bai Chen's work, Ma Li quietly ate dinner by herself.

On the other side, Bai Chen, although he said a lot of unhappy words, when he really wanted to finish the work, he was still very serious, without any perfunctory meaning in it. I entrusted him to read everything carefully, without missing anything.

only......

"Oh...is it really like this..."

After reading more than half of the entrustment letter, Bai Chen rubbed the corners of his eyes wearily, and said to himself:

"It's still the same as before, it's all entrusted by the boss and the boss's wife over there... Really, everyone said it's okay, but they are still so worried about me, I'm not going out alone, working hard for a living Entrepreneurial youth..."

Even though he was complaining, such complaints still couldn't hide the smile on the corner of Bai Chen's mouth.

Yes, life here is very dull and boring, but at least... there are so many people who care about him. …

"Well......"

Mali naturally heard Bai Chen talking to himself, and she saw the kindness of the people in the town towards the coffee shop, or towards Bai Chen. The care can be clearly felt.

With such a comparison, it's no wonder that Teacher Bai Chen is unwilling to return to Leiwen City...

After knowing what kind of life Bai Chen lived when she was a child, Ma Li sighed in her heart more than once.

"Ok?"

At this moment, Bai Chen, who had been looking at the entrustment letter, suddenly made a suspicious sound.

"What happened? Is there any commission that needs to be completed?"

Ma Li, who was familiar with Bai Chen's personality, immediately asked this question, and at this time, she had already finished drinking the fried noodles and milk on the table.

"Huh? Hmm... I don't know, it's just that there is a commission letter here that doesn't seem to be from a local..."

Under the pressure of the simple blue-and-white envelope, there is a gray-black envelope. The geographical location of each city is different, so the envelopes in each region will also be different. It is said that there are quite a few collectors People will specially collect envelopes from all over the world, and use them as their own collections.

"What kind of urgent commission is that?"

"This... I can't say for sure... After all, how can my house of everything have any reputation, and I can get people from other cities to entrust me with help..."

Bai Chen picked up the special envelope, observed it and added:

"And the envelope looks like it should be from a city in the north... No... It seems a bit like it was sent from a small place..."

The basic style of envelopes in various places is made according to the unique local scenery, so in most areas, you can roughly judge where it is just by looking at the elements on the surface of the envelope, but this letter is a bit out of the scope of judgment.

"Tsk, never mind, just take it apart and have a look."

Bai Chen clicked his tongue, and didn't continue to guess the source of the letter, but put the unfinished sandwich back on the plate, and then opened the letter under Mary's watchful eyes.

Opening the envelope, the contents inside were displayed in front of Bai Chen without reservation. Bai Chen didn't read the contents of the letter immediately, but put it directly on the signature.

"The address of the mail is... Iron Island? The sender is... Dafeng Youhui..."

"Steel Island? Where is that?"

Although Mary had already seen the map of Sinnoh in her hometown, she didn't have such a place called Iron Island in her memory.

"The west side of the Sinnoh area should be regarded as the coastal area of ​​EMI City."

Bai Chen, who has been in the Sinnoh area for so long, naturally knows the location of the Iron Island, but you must know that half of the Sinnoh area is crossed between EMI City and Shuran Town. Will there be a commission from there?

Dafeng Yuhui...how did he know himself?

"And the statute of limitations of this entrustment hasn't disappeared yet... But it won't disappear, right? After all, it's an unlimited entrustment..."

"Is there no time limit..."

If the entrustment time is not limited, it must be an extremely troublesome matter. Bai Chen and Ma Li have already experienced this point.

......

402 Mary: I will win!

"Hey, what kind of commission is this time..."

Bai Chen shook his head helplessly, and began to read the contents of the letter from the beginning.

[To the House of All Things:

Hello, although such an important commission should have come to the scene to explain it to you in person, but with my current physical condition, it is really difficult to support the journey to Shuran Town, and it is even difficult for the whole village to find a person with good health to go for me , so I can only entrust you in the form of a letter, please forgive me......

In addition, regarding the content of the entrustment, although the things we encountered may seem unbelievable to you, these are real events:

Our village is called the Village of Nightmare by outsiders. No matter if you are a local or a foreigner, as long as you spend the night in this village, you will definitely have nightmares, and the nightmares you have are definitely the worst and most painful ones... Although so You may think that I am joking, but as long as you come here, you will understand that everything I said is true. As long as the remuneration is enough for me to pay, I will never refuse, then. ..please!

Iron Island Dafeng Youhui

Commissioning time: unlimited]

The content of the letter ends here.

"A place that makes people have nightmares... is it real?"

What was written in the letter, just like what Dafeng Youhui said, looked like a prank to outsiders. After all, the whole village had nightmares together, which sounded like something in a fairy tale. Appears the same.

"If you just look at it according to common sense, of course it is impossible."

Facing Ma Li's doubts, Bai Chen simply explained:

"So at this time, don't you have to find out which Pokmon has this ability?"

Even though the person named Dafeng Youhui had some self-deprecating behavior in his heart, Bai Chen didn't think that someone would send a letter from such a far away just for the sake of prank.

"Or, in fact, we have talked about the answer a long time ago."

"A long time ago...a nightmare...!? Teacher Bai Chen, do you mean..."

"Ah."

Bai Chen changed his usual casual style, and slowly said with a serious expression:

"The Nightmare God, Darkrai, is the only one who can do this."

Darkrai is the real name of Pokémon, and Nightmare God represents its authority as a beast, just like Cresselia is called Dream God because it can make people around and Pokémon have sweet dreams. reason.

Almost every mythical beast has a title in line with its authority.

"Well......"

After learning about her opponent this time in advance, instead of showing a happy look, Mary's expression reveals sadness.

Although I have seen Regice as a guardian individual in the iceberg ruins before, but at that time Regice had already been defeated by Bai Chen and was completely suppressed by him, so it seems If so, this is actually the first time she has met the legendary Pokémon......

"How is it?" Seeing Ma Li's mood at this time, Bai Chen asked with a smile: "It's very rare to have a chance to fight against a legendary Pokémon, do you want to give it a try?"

Although there was an element of teasing in it, Ma Li understood that Bai Chen's wish to face an opponent of this strength was not fake.

Since as a teacher, Bai Chen hoped so, then as a student, she should naturally respond well.

"call......"

Mary took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

"I'll try my best!"

Mary's eyes did not dodge, but burned with the desire to win, even though she knew that her desire to win against such an opponent was nothing less than a fantasy, but this did not affect her fighting spirit.

"Ah, very good."

What Bai Chen wanted was such an answer.

Although it is dangerous to confront the legendary Pokémon head-on, as he mentioned when he was in the Hezhong area, Mary now needs an opportunity, one that will allow her to face up to her current shortcomings, and one that will allow her to move forward firmly. An opportunity to take a step forward.

When I was traveling, I also encountered a bottleneck period similar to Marie, and the reason why he was able to break through at that time must be attributed to the battle with Suicune...

"If that's the case, let's get ready~ We'll set off for Iron Island tomorrow~ Just in time to avoid these annoying guys~"

"Tomorrow!? So soon!?"

Originally, I thought that after finally coming back, Bai Chen would think about resting for two days before leaving, so that she would have time to prepare, but I didn't expect that he planned to leave tomorrow.

"Huh? Otherwise, when will it be delayed? If you go one day late, the people in Iron Island will be haunted by nightmares for one more day, isn't it?"

"That...that's right..."

Although she had been mentally prepared just now, as long as Mary thought that she would face the legendary Pokémon the next day, her mood began to become uneasy again, and even her body trembled slightly.

Really, no problem...

Mary likes to read storybooks, so in her mind, the powerful image of legendary Pokémon has long been ingrained. Just a single blow can have the power equivalent to dozens of ordinary Pokmon. As long as it is serious, it only takes a moment The battle can be ended.

No matter which fairy tale or legend it is in, the legendary Pokémon basically appears as the protagonist, or the first villain. This shows how powerful the legendary Pokémon is in people's eyes.

"Hmm~ Although I don't know what you are worried about."

Seeing that Ma Li seemed to have fallen into a mental deadlock again, Bai Chen finally couldn't help but comfort him:

"Legendary Pokémon are far superior to ordinary Pokmon, but they are not invincible. Of course, the top legendary Pokmon like the Wind King is another matter~ But Darkrai There are not a few opponents who can defeat it among trainers."

Bai Chen continued:

"What's more, this shouldn't be a serious problem for you, right? I didn't ask you to win. If you really can't hold on, I will be by your side."

"?!"

Yes, what am I afraid of?

Mary suddenly realized.

The most reliable person in the world is by my side, so why am I still afraid of such a small thing?

At this moment, even Mary herself couldn't understand what she was thinking before.

"I will win!"

Mary finally said so firmly.

......

403 Iron Island, Suspicious Client

Iron Island, once a prosperous, ore-producing island.

The reason why it is called Once is also because the original ore here has almost been mined and lost its own ore resources. The small island that was once prosperous in the past has naturally declined over time.

However, walking on the surface of Iron Island, you can still notice countless traces left by mining in the past.The bumpy and rugged road is mixed with large and small potholes of different depths buried in every corner of the island. Walking on this kind of road itself is a torture to the legs.

"It's hard to imagine anyone living in a place like this..."
