Chapter 84 - Chapter 84: Beating a dead horse, are we?

Fei Xiao looked at the claw extended in front of her and knew that the misunderstanding had likely been resolved.

It was best if the misunderstanding could be resolved.

She didn't mind another fight, after all, it wouldn't be the first time.

It's just that she had been playing in high-end matches too much, and now that a small fry around level 20 had suddenly appeared, she was really afraid that she might accidentally send it away if she slipped up, which would be too awkward.

Calculating it like this, her luck was truly heaven-defying.

Her first battle was against a pseudo-legendary, and her second encounter was with a wandering swordsman.

There shouldn't be many Pokémon of this level in the world right now, yet she had already encountered two.

Could it be that the next battle will require me to smash a legendary Pokémon?

In the end, it was better to have fewer Pokémon trying to pick a fight.

...

"Qia."

Grovyle seemed to be saying something awkwardly, but Fei Xiao couldn't understand it at all.

"Diancie, can you do me a small favor?"

"Hmph! Sister Fei Xiao, do you really take me for a translator?"

"Alright, alright, I'll prepare some Pokéblocks for you in a bit, okay?"

Fei Xiao gently stroked its head, thinking carefully that she seemed to have mistreated it a bit.

After all, she wasn't at home right now, and the berries she carried with her weren't many, so she couldn't make too many Pokéblocks.

However, based on the current number of live stream viewers, she shouldn't be lacking system points for the time being.

As soon as Diancie heard there was something delicious, she beamed with joy.

"Great! Remember to keep your word!"

"Melo Melo!"

At this moment, Meloetta flew in front of Fei Xiao. Facing those pitiful, bean-sized eyes, Fei Xiao knew at a glance what it wanted.

Then, she made the same promise.

"Okay, okay, you won't be left out. I'll let you eat until you're full by then."

"Melo!"

Hearing this, Meloetta and Diancie danced with joy, spinning around in excitement.

"Qia."

Watching the affectionate scene between the human and the Pokémon, Grovyle sighed with emotion for a moment.

"seed seed!"

Bulbasaur was also standing to the side, telling Grovyle something, but its expression was full of relief.

As Grovyle chewed over the other's words and looked at the few people in front of it, something seemed to have changed in its heart.

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic."

"Okay, but don't forget our Pokéblocks!"

...

"Qia."

"Thank you for saving Bulbasaur. I misunderstood you before."

Grovyle apologized to Fei Xiao apologetically.

"seed."

"Grovyle is a friend from my previous forest. I didn't notice at first, so I only just recognized it."

"Qia."

"I originally thought Bulbasaur had already... but I'm very glad you are still here and came back."

"Eh? Is this where Bulbasaur originally lived?"

Lin Siyu curiously leaned in and happened to overhear the conversation.

Grovyle subconsciously took two steps back, but considering that Fei Xiao had saved Bulbasaur, it didn't make any other moves.

This series of changes was also noticed by the two women, Lin Siyu, and the people in the live stream.

"seed."

"I don't know either. After all, it feels like trees in many places in the forest are damaged and collapsed, so I don't remember clearly."

"Qia!"

"This is indeed our former home, but a while ago, a terrifying Pokémon seemed to appear nearby. It caused serious disturbances, so we prepared to leave this place together."

As soon as these words were spoken.

The eyes of the few people who knew the truth uncontrollably aimed at someone again.

Fei Xiao:...

Oh, right! It seems that was her own doing.

Forget it, she was almost used to it.

If she couldn't take action, she really would have wanted to silence them.

Damn it, why do they always bring this up and beat a dead horse?

For some reason, the people in the live stream felt that Sister Fei Xiao's gaze seemed to have become extremely dangerous.

Lin Siyu almost got goosebumps from the fright.

Meng Xi silently looked away.

Grovyle always felt that it was suddenly a bit cold around it?

"Ahem, you don't need to worry about this. That Pokémon has probably already left."

Fei Xiao said casually without blushing or skipping a beat.

"Qia?"

"Really?"

"Yes, you don't actually need to be fearful anymore."

"Sister Fei Xiao basically solved it."

Meng Xi and Lin Siyu also stepped forward to back her up.

Grovyle skeptically shifted its gaze to Bulbasaur.

Bulbasaur was a bit bewildered, after all, it hadn't followed when Fei Xiao left earlier.

"Melo Melo!"

"Don't worry, Sister Fei Xiao and we have already confirmed this. You can return to your original home."

With the advice of Meloetta and Diancie.

Grovyle finally barely believed the few people's words.

But in the end, it shook its head to refuse.

"Hmm? Why? Isn't this your home?"

Lin Siyu asked doubtfully.

Grovyle looked deeply at the three humans in front of it.

Except for Fei Xiao, everyone else felt a bit flustered in their hearts for some reason.

Grovyle lowered its head, and the tone in its voice became somewhat lonely, or perhaps angry.

"Qia."

Listening to the other's account, Diancie and Meloetta felt some sympathy and sadness.

Upon hearing this, Bulbasaur's long-calmed heart became restless again.

However, this time it was able to maintain its rationality in time. It looked deeply at Fei Xiao, feeling especially fortunate in its heart.

Fei Xiao also noticed its unpredictable expression.

Although she couldn't understand the other's language, Fei Xiao could basically guess eight or nine out of ten from their expressions.

She slowly crouched down and gently soothed Bulbasaur's heart.

"Melo."

"Sorry."

Diancie and Meloetta stepped forward together to comfort Grovyle.

After spending a few days with Fei Xiao, Meng Xi and Lin Siyu seemed to have thought of the problem.

Only the people in the live stream were still looking confused, completely unable to understand what was going on with this oppressive atmosphere.

Without saying anything, how did it become as if everyone understood?

...

In the end, Fei Xiao was the first to speak.

"It should be caused by having initiated similar struggles with humans, right?"

Grovyle raised its head and noticed the slightly apologetic expressions of the few people, and its vigilance lessened a bit.

Then, Grovyle nodded in approval.

"Qia."
