I, the Pokémon Master, now resign

Mary looked dumbfounded, why is there such a power hidden inside a seed?

The burnt vegetation began to recover, the water pool gradually returned to its clear appearance, and even Celebi's injuries were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

--Miracle

If one word were used to describe the current scene, Mary could only think of this.

"really."

Seeing the miracle seeds constantly emitting energy on the ground, Bai Chen sighed.

"In this miracle seed, part of Celebi's authority is hidden."

"Authority? Hidden in the miracle seed?!"

Mary asked somewhat incomprehensibly.

"Yeah, so as you can see, this Celebi couldn't recover from his injuries... If I guessed correctly, it had stored part of its authority in the miracle seed, and It was handed over to the two couples, or their descendants? In short, I don’t know the specific reason and process, but the couple are just returning the object.”

only......

Bai Chen didn't express all his speculations, but only the most superficial phenomena, as for the deeper things.

"Wu!"

Bai Chen watched, Celebi had recovered all the power in the miracle seed at this time, and the miracle seed that was still exuding a faint green light had now dimmed.

There's none.......

I don't know whether it is relief or disappointment, Celebi lowered his head. Although another part of his authority to heal himself has returned, it is not happy because of it.

It moved forward slowly, bent down to pick up the seeds again, looked at it, and its eyes were full of reminiscence and reluctance.

In the end, it still didn't show up...

Celebi looked at the pool in front of him, a little dazed.

It actually guessed everything, but it has been willful all the time... It hopes that its willfulness can make them look back at itself, and it hopes that its willfulness can be exchanged for a formal farewell and thanks.

It actually knows that the years it has passed are definitely more than 6 or 70 years. Even if memory can lie, life can't lie.

At the beginning, the water pool was full of lush greenery, and countless Pokémon lived around the water pool. When they had a picnic, there would always be many Pokémon staring at them with curious and longing eyes, while they were open and aboveboard. Lie on their shoulders and enjoy the brief quiet time.

But when it came here again, the surrounding trees were all withered, and the water pool was full of traces of time.

It knows that the death of trees and pools is not caused by external forces, but their own life has come to an end, and the natural withering and ending.

Even the surrounding trees have changed, let alone human beings... Although they were not old at the beginning, they were not young either. Even if it is 6 or 70 years, they can't afford it. You know The natural death of human beings is irreversible, which cannot be changed no matter which legendary Pokémon they are, no matter what authority they have.

Because, this is the rule, this is the cruel rule called life.

It endured the pain in its heart, and buried the seed they gave itself in the soil. After losing its authority, this seed also turned into a withered gray in an instant, without any vitality in it.

Maybe it was the same when they left.

but......

"Wu~"

Celebi's palms are covered with soil where seeds are buried.

I want to meet you.

The power of life began to pour into the soil continuously.

I want to see them again.

Seeds that had lost their lives began to germinate, and fragile green shoots emerged from the soil.

want to be with them—

Say goodbye and say thanks.

444 Miraculous Meeting

Although Celebi can bring miracles to life, she cannot bring the dead back to life.

I don't know how many years ago, it was about to leave here, in order to ensure the vitality of the forest, so that they can continue to live here, it divided its authority into two.

The power of two authorities, one of which is the power to heal oneself, and the other is the power to heal all things.

It did not hesitate to infuse the power of healing itself into the miracle seed they gave itself, and left this seed of infinite power in their home before leaving alone.

Its responsibility is to travel through time and space and bring vitality to forests and lands in different time and space. This is both its responsibility and its obligation. Therefore, even at the risk of serious injury, it must retain the power to heal all things. .

Having abandoned half of its authority, its overall strength is definitely the last among Celebi, but fortunately, except for the scratches under its wings, it has not suffered any serious injuries for so many years.

But today, after crossing countless time and space, it finally returned to its origin, and at the same time regained its own power.

After regaining its power, it poured more abundant life force into the miracle seed, prompting it to regenerate and germinate...Although I knew it would not make much sense to do so, after all, they, the two who saved themselves, taught Its own people have already left, maybe it did this out of willfulness...but at least it still hopes to leave some traces and proofs of them in this land, the land where they once existed, otherwise Wouldn't it be too sad if there was no trace of the past when it came here again some year?

"Celebi...are you really okay..."

Standing beside Bai Chen, Mary lowered her eyes to look at Celebi who was pouring life force into the ground, and said softly.

She didn't know what happened to Celebi, but it was not difficult to understand Celebi's current emotions.

Although there is no sadness on its face now, that seemingly free and easy attitude is far more depressing than sadness.

Legendary Pokémon.

Before meeting Bai Chen, in Ma Li's eyes, every legendary Pokémon represented mystery, far beyond the existence of ordinary Pokémon. "Responsibility" is silently doing what you should do.

But now, in the eyes of Marie, the legendary Pokémon are a bit pitiful, because they don't have the concept of time in their eyes, which determines that their life is destined to be accompanied by parting, and they are absolutely Those who can't make friends with others, after all, have emotional difficulties, and once they fall into it, it is difficult to break free.

It doesn't matter if Darkley lives alone in the cave out of self-blame on the Iron Island or the desperate Celebi has been exposed in Xinsen.

If you want to pursue it, what really got them into this situation is their feelings and their status as legendary Pokémon.

They are all poor people.

"..."

Bai Chen didn't respond to Ma Li's question, he just watched the scene in front of him silently as a passerby.

He was also waiting, waiting for that almost impossible miracle to happen.

In front of him, the miraculous seeds injected with wave after wave of power by Celebi have begun to grow gradually, from dead seeds that have lost their vitality, to slowly growing into saplings.

But this is not the final ending, Celebi still seems dissatisfied, crouching on the ground as if to instill all the longing for so many years into the Miracle Seed.

And in fact, it does think so.

It has accepted the fact that its friends have left, but on the other side it has already regarded this seed as their incarnation. While injecting power, it is also constantly pouring out its own feelings in its heart, pouring out its Thanks, apologies, nostalgia for them, and finally a sad wish to see them again.

The tree began to grow taller as time passed, and within 3 minutes, it had surpassed the surrounding trees and became the tallest existence in the entire forest.

Maybe Celebi's power is too strong, maybe the miracle seed itself has a "miracle" color, or both, but at least the vitality in this seed has far exceeded that in this forest. of any tree.

"Wu..."

Celebi finally stopped the output of power, looked at the big tree in front of him, a smile appeared on the corner of its mouth, whether it was joy or sadness.

Is that all right?

It questioned its own heart like this.

Treating the Miracle Seed as them, and giving it your own vitality, is that all right?

of course not!

Celebi clenched her fists tightly. It flew in the air with complicated emotions, and tears seemed to flash from the corners of its eyes.

The power given to the Miracle Seed is only its willfulness after all, and this willfulness has not succeeded, they have not appeared, and even the height of this tree has not yet reached the big tree that stood here back then.

The place that sheltered them from the scorching sun.

"Wu...!"

Celebi leaned his body against the tree, and a tear fell from its cheek and fell into the tree's roots.

It has ended......

The evening wind blowing in the forest gives people a chilly and piercing feeling, and the sound of the evening wind blowing makes people feel like the echo of people passing by.

"You still like to cry so much... It's been so many years, you should have become stronger."

"Yeah... It's hard to meet again, but you show such a weak look, how can you tell us to leave with peace of mind?"

"Wu?!"

It's not an illusion, but a sound that actually exists, resounding in the quiet space.

"This?!"

Mary took two steps back somewhat unacceptably, looked behind Celebi, then at Bai Chen, not knowing what to say.

The looks of the two old people are definitely familiar to her. They are none other than the client of this mission, the old couple.

"Sorry, did I scare you, little girl?"

Hearing Ma Li's doubtful voice, the old man turned to Ma Li and apologized.

"Because we are all dead people, so we have no way to greet you loudly first, we can only rely on the vitality in the miracle seed to suddenly appear in this lingering way."

"ghost......?"

Mary asked with some uncertainty.

"Well, it should be regarded as a similar concept."

The old man replied with a smile, and he didn't seem to be offended by Mary's impolite speech.

"Wu...WU? WU!"

After being stunned for a while, Celebi finally realized what was happening in front of his eyes.

The possibility it prayed for actually appeared before its eyes.

The two people it had been thinking about day and night actually met it again.

It was full of grief and joy, and it jumped up excitedly, as if it wanted to get into the arms of the two of them like before, but...

Celebi's figure just left a ripple on the bodies of the two, and then passed through.

"We are ghosts, not entities... You should know it too? The old man and I have heard your voice, so we tried our best to escape from there and want to say a few words to you for the last time." …”

"Really...Such a provocative scene really doesn't suit me..."

The husband habitually tried to scratch his head to express his helplessness, but he realized that he had already died before putting his hands on his head, so he put his hands down angrily.

"Leave it to them over there. Anyway, it's good to have someone convey what you want to say." The husband looked at the scene over there with such a smile, then turned around to look at Bai Chen, and said slowly: "At the beginning I'm really sorry for entrusting you with such a hasty matter, but please forgive me, because the power stored in the miracle seed will have completely disappeared at that time, so..."

"I can understand."

Bai Chen sighed softly. Facing the soul that was about to disperse, he had nothing to complain about. If he had to say his only complaint, it might be that he encountered this parting scene again.

Maybe it's because he was too lonely since he was a child, so what Bai Chen has always disliked to see is the scene of parting.

Whether it's parting ways for the sake of growth and chasing dreams; or this kind of life-and-death confession, these are all he hates.

"Although I can understand, but if it is convenient, can you tell me the specific situation? After all, I have already completed a commission, but if I don't even know its background, I, as the boss of Wanshiwu, am really a bit negligent. .”

"of course."

The old man still kept smiling.

"But our story is actually very simple, and it is really fast to tell."

The old man closed his eyes, recalled the scene back then, and said:

"It seems that the day we met Celebi was a rainy day, and the pattering rain fell on me through the trees. At that time, I was finishing picking medicinal herbs and walking home."

.......

"The weather was pretty good in the morning, why did it start to rain here in just a few hours!"

He put one hand on top of his head, trying to resist the falling rain, while the other hand was protecting the basket containing the medicinal materials in his arms, and he just bent over and ran towards the village.

Although I prayed in my heart that the weather would improve, in fact, in less than a minute, a flash of lightning flashed, followed by dull thunder.

I can't go back...

He squinted his eyes, looked up at the sky where the situation was getting worse, and muttered in his heart.

He hadn't seen such bad weather for a long time. Although he could try to run home before the thunderstorm, but after thinking about it, it was better to focus on safety.

To him, this forest is like the backyard of his home. He has a good relationship with most of the wild Pokémon in the forest, and he knows all the places in the forest quite well.
