Pokémon: This trainer is too wild!

Chapter 171 Mr. Mammon, you are the one chosen by Lord Phoenix!
Enju City, a city known as 'a city with a rich history'.

Eonju City is located in the northern part of the Seoto region. It is a historical and cultural city, an ancient capital covered with historical traces.

Traditional Japanese-style architecture is a characteristic of this city, and the tallest building in the city is the ten-story Bell Tower.

As an ancient city with a rich history and culture, Enju City is quite famous throughout the Kanto region.

The Enju Dance Hall, in particular, is extremely famous.

Many people say that coming to Enshu City without seeing a kimono-clad girl performance at the Enshu Dance Hall would be the biggest regret.

After leaving Manjin City, Mammon and his companions arrived at this historic city.

Upon entering the city, one can see a magnificent and ancient tower in the distance, which is the Bell Tower.

"This tower is burned to the ground, why hasn't it been demolished yet?"

Higana looked curiously at the dilapidated tower to the side. Just from its appearance, it was clear that the tower had probably been burned down before.

Traces were found all over the tower, and it was all charred.

This dangerous facility could collapse at any time, yet the people of Yuanzhu City haven't demolished it. I don't know what they're thinking.

"Because this tower is one of the most important testaments to this city."

Mammon couldn't help but laugh, glanced at the charred tower, and then shrugged.

“Mammon, how do you know all this?” Higana glanced at Mammon in surprise. She had really discovered it; Mammon seemed to know a lot about the hidden stories from all over the world.

"The Burnt Tower, that's what people call it now, but it was originally called the Bell Tower, a tower that was struck by lightning 150 years ago and almost burned to the ground."

Mammon gazed at the bell tower in the distance.

The Bell Tower and the Bell Tower were built by the people of Vermilion City to celebrate the friendship between humans and Pokémon. Lugia and Ho-Oh even live on these two towers.

"Unfortunately, when the Bell Tower burned down, no one tried to put it out. And when the three Pokémon that died in the fire were revived by Ho-Oh, people were terrified of the reborn Pokémon and even launched futile attacks on them."

Mammon spoke sarcastically, explaining why Ho-Oh and Lugia had both left Enchantress City.

This incident has demonstrated that the relationship between humans and Pokémon is not close.

"How foolish." Gadriya frowned slightly. She had a rough idea of ​​what had happened. The three reborn Pokémon were Suicune, Entei, and Raikou.

"It is indeed foolish, but more than that, it is disappointing. Seven hundred years ago, the people of this city built these two towers and gained the trust of Ho-Oh and Lugia."

"One hundred and fifty years ago, a great fire caused these two legends to leave the city, and the so-called trust only lasted for five hundred years."

Mammon remarked that this is how the world is: 'bonds' are hard to come by, but breaking them is all too easy.

"But now, the people of this city have probably long forgotten this history."

Mammon looked toward the Bell Tower, which was actually quite well preserved.

However, it was all in vain. Ho-Oh had long since given up on Eriju City, ever since the people there drove away and attacked the reborn Suicune and the others.

"No, not at all. We still keep in mind the lessons of history."

A soft, melodious female voice came from behind them.

Mammon raised an eyebrow and turned his head, where he saw a beautiful woman in a kimono.

She wore exquisite makeup and a yellow kimono, exuding a gentle and graceful demeanor, reminiscent of a Yamato Nadeshiko (ideal Japanese woman).

"Greetings, everyone. My name is May (Xiao Juan), and I happened to overhear your conversation."

The kimono-clad girl named May placed her hands in front of her lower abdomen, gave Mammon and the others a slight bow, and spoke in a soft voice with a strange theatrical tone.

"Miss May, the eldest of the five sisters of Enju Dance Hall, what a coincidence."

Mammon looked at the beautiful woman in the kimono before him with great interest.

Enju Dance Hall can be said to be the most famous dance hall in the city of Jodo. The dancers in the dance hall are all beautiful and talented in singing and dancing.

The five sisters, in particular, who are the owners of the dance hall, are quite famous.

Moreover, these five sisters are not just weak women who can sing and dance; they often perform operas, presenting many cultural stories to others through stage performances.

There are also claims that these five sisters are quite excellent trainers, with extraordinary strength, even comparable to gym leaders.

Of course, whether this is true or not is impossible to know.

"I never expected this gentleman to know me. I am truly astonished."

May gave Mammon another graceful bow, her beautiful eyes, as clear as autumn water, gazing at him.

"I wonder if I would have the honor of inviting you to the dance hall for a chat? I am quite proficient in tea ceremony."

In May, invitations were extended to several people.

“Of course I would agree. To be personally invited by Miss May is something countless men would long for.” Mammon chuckled, naturally not refusing.

"Sir, you really love to joke." May covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Then, gentlemen, please follow me."

May moved gracefully to the front of Mammon and the others, and then gestured with her hand.

Enju Dance Hall is a very famous place in Enju City. Even on days when the Enju Five Sisters are not performing, it is still very popular with customers.

After all, such a large dance hall actually hosts quite a few dancers and singers.

May led Mammon and the others into the dance hall through the back door.

"elder sister?"

As soon as May entered the dance hall, a girl wearing a black kimono with gold circular patterns came up to her and looked at her with a puzzled expression.

She is Yuxu (Xiaoyu), the third of the five sisters.

"Yu Xu, take these distinguished guests to a private room and make sure they are well taken care of. I will be there shortly."

In May, he gave instructions to Yu Xu.

“I understand.” Yu Xu was taken aback.

"Excuse me, gentlemen, please allow my sister to attend to you first. I need to fetch something." May turned to Mammon and apologized. "It's alright, Miss May, please go ahead with your business."

Mammon smiled and replied that what he was actually more curious about was why May had so suddenly invited them to be guests.

However, Mammon also had some guesses, though he didn't know if they were accurate.

"Please follow me, gentlemen."

Yu Xu gestured, her demeanor noticeably cooler than her older sister, May.

Her face was also more aloof and cold, but she was still incredibly beautiful.

To be honest, all five sisters are very good-looking; their genes are amazing.

Upon entering the private room, Mammon casually glanced around. The room was furnished in a very standard traditional Chinese style, with even a bamboo recliner.

Yu Xu invited the group to sit down and began to brew tea.

"Miss Yuxu, I've heard that your sisters' dancing skills are the best in the capital. Would we have the honor of watching you dance?"

Mammon sat in his seat, looking Yu Xu up and down, and said with a smile.

"I am naturally willing to perform for our distinguished guests, but it is inconvenient for my second sister and fourth sister to perform since they are currently away."

Yu Xu replied slowly in a gentle tone.

"I see, what a pity."

Mammon was somewhat disappointed, as listening to music in brothels was something he had always wanted to try.

"I wonder if Miss Tamao knows Ma Xiu, the current owner of the aromatherapy center in the Carlos region?"

Mammon thought for a moment and asked Yu Xu curiously.

Marshall, a Gym Leader in the Kalos region, is a fairy-like girl.

It is worth mentioning that Ma Xiu's hometown is the city of Jodo, which is known as the 'historical country', and it is very likely that it is Eonju City.

Because Mashu speaks with a Kyoto accent, and all the trainers at the Aromatherapy Dojo wear long-sleeved kimonos, which are the favorite attire of geisha in Johto.

“Ma Xiu? She studied at our dance studio for a while.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Xu recalled for a moment, then replied with a smile.

"She is a very outstanding girl, and we are very happy for her to have achieved what she has today."

Sure enough, Ma Xiu had some connection with Yuanzhu Dance Hall.

Time passed by in casual conversation, and soon there was a knock on the door of the private room. May slowly walked in carrying a box.

"Excuse me, gentlemen."

After placing the box aside, May apologized to the group with deep regret.

"No need to be so polite. Speaking of which, Miss May, you can explain why you invited us here, right?"

Mammon waved his hand to indicate that it was alright; what he was more curious about now was why May had invited them to the dance hall.

It's clearly not right for a renowned dancer like May to invite just anyone she meets on the street to a dance hall and even prepare such a high-class private room.

"As expected, sir, you noticed. I won't hide it anymore. May I ask if you have had any contact with Lord Ho-Oh or Lord Lugia?"

Upon hearing this, May pursed her lips, but still couldn't suppress her inner urgency and asked Mammon expectantly.

Yu Xu, who was standing to the side, was taken aback when she heard this, and then her eyes also became eager.

"Oh? How did you know?"

Mammon looked at May with considerable surprise, knowing that the May sisters had an unusual relationship with Ho-Oh Lugia.

But it can't be because he smells Ho-Oh on him, can it?
"It's because of this, a treasure passed down from our ancestors."

May took the box and slowly opened it, inside which were two ancient bells.

Mammon narrowed his eyes slightly; he recognized him instantly.

These are the transparent bell and the bell of the sea god!
“I was on my way back to the dance floor when I passed by you, sir, and I noticed something unusual about the transparent bell.”

May gently raised her fair wrist, slowly took out the transparent bell, and gently shook it at Mammon.

Jingle ~

The transparent bell emitted a clear and melodious sound.

"It really is you! Sir, you are the one chosen by Lord Phoenix!"

May looked quite excited. The transparent bell and the sea god's bell had never rung since they were inherited from their ancestors.

Yes! It has never made a sound! Because it was a gift from Ho-Oh and Lugia to their ancestors in ancient times.

Only those recognized by Ho-Oh and Lugia can make these two bells ring!

The May Five sisters have been searching for this person for a long time, and now they have finally found him!
“No, I think you might have misunderstood…” Mammon’s expression was a little strange.

Does Ho-Oh agree with him?
He had reason to suspect that the bell only rang because of the special rainbow feather he wore.

"No! There's no mistake! The transparent bell rang for you! You are the person Lord Phoenix acknowledges!"

"Is it possible that I did meet Ho-Oh, but it didn't actually like me very much?"

Mammon tried to clarify the facts.

"Sir! Please tell Lord Phoenix that we have never forgotten it, and ask it to forgive us."

But clearly, May wouldn't listen at all; she even bowed deeply to Mammon.

"Please, we'll do anything to help you!"

She can do everything...

Upon hearing May and Tamao's dangerous remarks, Mammon fell into deep thought.
