Chapter 457: Enthusiastic Daughter Magearna
"What about that guy?"
Volcanion raised his hand and pointed at the flying fortress.
Will knew he was talking about Alva.
"What do you think?"
"Of course, we have to finish him off!"
"I think so too."
Will nodded.
There's nothing more to say; only if Alva is dead will he not cause any more trouble.
After all.
He knows too much.
Not to mention he knows the location of Volcanion and Magearna, and also knows the Soul-Heart can control the flying fortress and the Ultimate Weapon.
Just talking about the mysterious science and technology he learned from the old Alva.
He won't be a pushover in the future.
Maybe this young Alva can do the same operations as the old Alva later on.
For example.
Using the power of the Distortion World or Giratina, or some other incomprehensible technological power, to achieve effects like traveling through parallel timelines or traveling back to the past.
That's too disgusting.
Still have to eliminate the root of the trouble forever.
"Leave it to me."
Volcanion rubbed his fists and wiped his palms, flying towards the flying fortress.
"Remember to deal with his Pokémon too."
Will reminded from behind.
In this peaceful League era, taking a life doesn't seem to fit the theme of the times very well.
But when it's time to take action, one still has to take action, and leave no leeway.
It's not that one can't have a fluke mindset or a Holy Mother mindset.
But that has to be after clearly considering the consequences.
Anyway, the consequences Alva might cause after surviving.
In Will's judgment, the risk factor is extremely high.
It's better to nip that kind of danger in the bud to feel relieved.
"Mm."
Volcanion nodded.
It's not like he hasn't done this kind of thing before.
What Volcanion said before, about making those Pokémon Hunters never return, wasn't just joking or bragging.
Afterwards.
Will and Cynthia pitched a tent on the Nebel Plateau, planning to stay for a few days.
Although as the host.
Volcanion should have entertained the guests a bit.
But he had a lot of things to do right now.
After quietly finishing off Alva, and then hiding the flying fortress deep in the mountains with Magearna.
He immediately started patrolling around the Nebel Plateau, using his steam to completely envelop this secret realm.
And Magearna replaced Volcanion to do the entertaining.
Of course.
She herself also wanted to entertain Will well.
"Diri duru."
Magearna left for a moment.
Then returned with a Gardevoir, each holding a lotus leaf.
That Gardevoir was very special.
Because she was wearing clothes, and it was a wedding dress from the human world.
There was crystal-clear water in the lotus leaf, probably mountain spring water.
"Thank you."
Will took the lotus leaf, tilted his head and took a sip,
"The taste is very good."
Saying it's sweet and refreshing is a bit exaggerated.
But drinking it indeed gave a cool and refreshing feeling. If the water drank usually is iced black tea, then the mountain spring water here is chilled iced black tea.
"Diri duru~"
Magearna waved her hands happily.
Although her facial expressions were not very rich, her mood could also be seen from her body movements.
Hearing Will say the water was good to drink.
She hurriedly snatched the leaf from Will's hand, and ran far away to fetch water again.
"Uh, no need."
Will was stunned for a moment and raised his hand to stop her, but Magearna had already run far away.
"Magearna really likes you; does she want to lay an egg with you?"
Cynthia took the lotus leaf from Gardevoir's hand, thanked her, and then turned to stare at Will.
Smack!
As soon as Blonde-kun finished speaking, she was lightly chopped on the head by Will's hand knife:
"Idiot, Magearna is treating me as her father; probably because I was the first person she saw after she 'rebooted'."
"Ouch..."
Cynthia cried out in pain.
But actually she was just cooperating with Will's performance; it really didn't hurt.
How could Lucario bear to hurt her?
Cynthia pursed her lips and smiled, then looked at Gardevoir in front of her again:
"Gardevoir, you are so pretty~ By the way, do you not hate me? I see everyone keeps a certain distance from me."
"Amaura."
A cold little head beside rubbed against Cynthia's arm.
"Right right, Amaura is an exception."
Cynthia hurriedly corrected herself.
"Sana."
Gardevoir raised her hand to cover her mouth, chuckling and shaking her head.
Will quietly sized up this special Gardevoir from the side.
Psychic-type Pokémon can generally do shallow "mind reading", judging the other party's current thoughts and distinguishing the other party's good or bad by feeling the target's mental fluctuations.
The Gardevoir family is even a leader in this aspect.
It can be shown since their first stage, Ralts.
People with impure minds, people with evil thoughts...
As long as encountering them, they will run far away at the first moment to avoid contact.
Whether Will and Cynthia are bad guys or not.
Gardevoir easily "saw" it.
Moreover.
Will doesn't think.
A Pokémon who wears human-made clothes on her body would hate humans that much.
"Gardevoir, can I touch your little dress?"
Cynthia leaned over.
Rare to see a Pokémon here who doesn't reject her, she wanted to get closer to the other party.
"...Sana."
A touch of hesitation appeared in Gardevoir's eyes, then she nodded gently.
Cynthia then stretched out two fingers, stroking the wedding dress on Gardevoir's body:
"Wow, the feel is so good~ It must be very comfortable wearing it, right?"
"Sana."
Gardevoir nodded gently, looking down at the wedding dress on her body, a nostalgic smile appearing on her face.
"Diri duru."
Magearna came back, catching a full leaf of water.
"Thank you."
Will took it and drank it in one gulp, then hid the leaf behind his back.
"Diri duru."
Magearna pressed close to grab the leaf.
"No no no, no need, I'm already full."
Will reached out a hand and pressed it on Magearna's head.
Originally intending to suppress her.
Who would have expected.
Magearna's stats were higher than his.
He was actually pushed sliding backwards, his feet plowing two straight lines on the ground.
"Diri duru."
"No no, we are still going to stay here for a few days, not too late to drink when thirsty again."
"Diri duru."
Hearing Will say this, Magearna finally nodded and withdrew her hand.
"Phew."
Will breathed a sigh of relief.
A daughter stronger than his own strength...
Seems it's not entirely a good thing.
It's just that Magearna is the "obedient daughter" type.
If it were changed to Meowscarada...
?
Fortunately his strength was always above Meowscarada back then, otherwise hard to imagine what Big Meow would have done.
Recalling it now...
Will suddenly realized when Meowscarada evolved before, the look in her eyes and her attitude towards him were a bit off?
Must question her properly when finding Big Cat later.
"Cynthia, let everyone out to play together; I believe with their charm, gaining the trust of other Pokémon on the Nebel Plateau won't be a problem."
Will turned his head and looked at Cynthia, speaking.
"Makes sense."
Cynthia nodded, releasing the other five Pokémon she carried.
Swish!
Garchomp came out and planned to have an intimate "hug" with Will.
Perhaps because there was an inexplicable tacit understanding.
Anyway, Will knew the big mother shark would chop this knife, and the latter also knew he could definitely dodge it.
But Magearna didn't know.
Smack!
Magearna reached out a hand blocking Garchomp's swinging arm, raising the other arm scattering it into a petal shape aiming at Garchomp.
Pink energy gathered.
But at the same time Will had already taken action to pinch Magearna's arm.
"Diri duru?"
"This is my partner, she wasn't trying to hurt me, just that our greeting method is a bit special."
Will reached out and stroked Magearna.
The other party was willing to protect him.
He was quite happy.
But Magearna's speed of taking action was also really fast; if Will's perception or action speed had been slightly slower, Garchomp might have had to take a Fleur Cannon.
"Diri duru! Duru..."
Magearna was startled, hurriedly bowing constantly to apologize to Garchomp.
"Roar."
Garchomp shook her head, a trace of shock still remaining in her eyes.
Magearna's speed just now was too fast.
When that light had already flashed, she only realized it with hindsight.
If they were enemies.
She definitely couldn't have dodged it.
"It's okay, our big shark is very broad-minded."
Will walked over putting his arm around Garchomp's shoulder.
Swish swish!
A squat and a jump.
"This temper, comes fast and goes fast."
Will casually dodged Garchomp's attack, then got ready to run wildly.
But today's Garchomp seemed to be in bad condition, so didn't come to chase him.
"Hm?"
Will frowned.
He found...
Garchomp seemed to be in a bad mood.
"Hey, Garchomp, what's wrong with you?"
As a partner, Will of course had to care a bit.
"Roar."
Garchomp shook her head.
Then she actually lay directly on the ground, staring blankly at the sky.
Will's eyebrows jumped.
Ten out of twelve parts not right.
"Diri duru?"
Magearna looked at Will somewhat guiltily.
Could it be because of herself that Garchomp is like this?
"Um... it's okay, this might be good for Garchomp."
Will reached out and stroked Magearna's head.
The cold and hard metal feel wasn't great.
Speaking of which.
Both being Steel-type Pokémon.
The feel of his Lucario is very good; the fur on his body makes Cynthia and Kaoru unable to put it down.
As for Garchomp...
Will usually often makes her angry, then provokes the other party to fight with him, and then defeats her himself.
The purpose is to make Garchomp not get too carried away, and to always remember the truth that there is always someone better.
But to put it bluntly.
Will is ultimately one of their own; when taking action he has no hostility towards Garchomp at all.
It's not like Garchomp can't comprehend that meaning of pointing out.
Therefore, this striking effect is very limited.
Garchomp is almost immune to it.
But today is different.
Today Garchomp was truly severely struck.
First, when appearing, was scared by Alva's Charizard.
Then was awed by Magearna's power.
Garchomp is actually a proud big girl; these blows today truly made her close herself off a bit.
