Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

With this thought in mind, Little Dot climbed up from the sofa again, rolled under it with a gurgle, patted its bottom, and got up.

Fortunately, he remembered what Lin Xuan had said before: don't try out skills at home. So he opened the living room's French windows and went out onto the balcony.

"Whoo~"

Xiao Dian took a deep breath, not for any particular reason, but simply because she remembered that when the main characters in TV shows used their ultimate moves, they would always make this gesture, which looked pretty cool.

Then, I tried to calm my mind and focus, just like the book suggested.

"Dandan~"

"Haha~ I'll edit the rest of the video tomorrow~"

Lin Xuan stretched and came out of the room. The video about Venusaur that she posted yesterday was quite popular and became another one of her videos to go viral, so much so that many people were urging her to post more in the comments.

However, when it comes to updates, it's all about fate.

Lin Xuan glanced at the living room and realized that Xiao Dian had disappeared somewhere; she couldn't find him anywhere.

"Little one? Where did it run off to again?"

I went to the refrigerator, wanting to grab a bottle of soda to perk myself up. Even though it was already nine o'clock, wasn't this just the beginning of the nightlife?

How can you call yourself a contemporary college student if you don't stay up until 1 or 2 a.m.?

Then, when Lin Xuan opened the refrigerator door, she was completely stunned.

Where did my whole basket of tree fruits go? Just like that?

Somewhat mechanically, they turned their heads to look at the trash can on the side, and sure enough, they found it was full of leftover tree fruit pits.

Lin Xuan's lips twitched, but considering that Xiao Dian had finally won the game today, this was a reward, so he didn't complain too much. However, according to Lin Xuan's guess, this guy probably knew that he would be scolded for eating so much, so he hid in advance, right?

"Shh! Come out!"

"Okay, okay, I'm not angry with you anymore, come out now!"

But after Lin Xuan finished speaking, there was still no movement in the room.

"Ok?"

As Lin Xuan turned her head, she noticed that the balcony window had been opened at some point, so she went closer to take a look.

"This guy wouldn't run away from home just because he's worried about getting scolded, would he?"

Although this was the first thought that popped into Lin Xuan's mind, he also felt it was unlikely. After all, he had told him before that if this guy had any sense of shame, he wouldn't be so mischievous.

But after giving up on that idea, Lin Xuan had another worry.

"Won't this guy get lost if he runs off on his own?"

Lin Xuan couldn't help but worry, since Xiao Dian had been staying at home to recover from his injury for a long time, and it was only in the last few days that he took him out to school.

Given the level of intelligence this guy usually displays, Lin Xuan has no choice but to doubt whether he even remembers the way home.

Lin Xuan ended up standing on the balcony for half an hour.

"Could we really be lost?"

Lin Xuan muttered to herself as she continued to fidget with her phone, which kept spinning in her hand. Perhaps due to too many accidental touches, the screen displayed a message saying "Fingerprint unlocking has failed the most times; password unlocking is required," but Lin Xuan herself did not notice.

Just as Lin Xuan was wondering whether to call the police, a tiny figure slowly floated down from above her head, then spread its wings and landed on her head with a soft thud.

In reality, Xiao Dian just went up to the rooftop to practice his skills, and before he knew it, time had passed. When he was about to fly back, he saw Lin Xuan standing on the balcony, looking like he was waiting for him to come back.

This scene really startled Xiaodian. It was like she had been out playing all day and hadn't come home, only to find her mother standing there at the door, and she was too scared to go back.

Just as Xiao Dian was considering whether to take a detour and enter through the bathroom window of Lin Xuan's room, she noticed that Lin Xuan's expression was a little unnatural, and he kept looking around.

Then Xiaodian realized that Lin Xuan seemed to be worried about her. After thinking about it, she decided not to take a detour and flew down directly to land on Lin Xuan's head.

"Dandan?"

【Do you miss me a lot?】 =￣ω￣=

Feeling the familiar touch on her head, Lin Xuan immediately realized that the big lump that had landed on her head was Xiao Dian, but it seemed to have become much heavier because she had just eaten a lot of tree fruits.

I had just breathed a sigh of relief because of Xiaodian's appearance, but then I heard his slightly smug voice. I was so angry that I immediately pulled the guy off my head.

Where did you run off to?

Lin Xuan grabbed Xiao Dian by the part of his neck that connected to his wings, making him face her, and then realized that Xiao Dian was indeed heavier—so this guy must have eaten so many tree fruits and then fled to escape punishment, right?

"Dandan!"

Seeing that Lin Xuan looked like she was about to get angry, Xiao Dian quickly waved his hands and feet to explain, while pointing to the top of his head.

"You're going to practice on the rooftop? Practice what?"

Hearing Xiao Dian's explanation, Lin Xuan was even more confused. Then, remembering that there seemed to be a place on the rooftop that some people used to hang clothes, she immediately asked with some concern.

"You didn't blow up someone else's clothes or something again, did you?"

It wasn't that Lin Xuan wanted to think the worst, but the main thing was that Xiao Dian had this dark history; the TV that was blown up was still sitting in the corner, and he had always forgotten to take it down and throw it away.

"Dandan!"

Little Dot protested with a shout, then shook itself and broke free from Lin Xuan's clutches, landing on the ground. The only thing that annoyed Lin Xuan was that this guy was still standing there with his hands on his hips, looking very proud.

"Dandan!"

【I've now mastered all my skills!】(￣▽￣*)b

Lin Xuan: ? ? ?

Mastering divine skills? You? Even if the Sunflower Manual were placed in front of you, the best you could do would be kill yourself.

He patted his forehead, thinking that as long as this idiot didn't get lost, nothing else mattered.

Seeing Lin Xuan's disbelieving look, Xiao Dian was also very dissatisfied. She stood on the balcony railing and waved at Lin Xuan.

"Dandan!"

Move aside, I'm about to unleash my ultimate attack!

Then he struck a pose reminiscent of the Kamehameha wave.

"Okay, okay~"

Lin Xuan was too lazy to argue with him, so she took a step back into her room, thinking that she should watch this guy finish his performance and then go back to her room to rest. The next moment, Lin Xuan felt herself suddenly wake up.

Because between the two tiny claws of the smaller one, it seemed that something had actually been rubbed out.

[Is there really a powerful move?]

Chapter 26 Even the Electric Carp King isn't enough

"So your energy ball came from eating those tree fruits?"

Lin Xuan looked at Xiao Dian with suspicion. Although Xiao Dian had indeed managed to conjure an energy ball by hand in such a short time, what surprised Lin Xuan even more was that Xiao Dian had actually eaten it.

This is something that Lin Xuan would find hard to accept, and if other Emolga trainers knew about it, they would probably be so angry they'd vomit blood.

All your hard training for half a day is useless, while someone else is fine after just one meal.

But seeing Xiaodian nodding adorably to the side, Lin Xuan had no choice but to accept this reality.

"Then go eat a few more tree fruits and see if you can become stronger?"

Lin Xuan said this after thinking for a moment, but this time even Xiao Dian rolled her eyes at him and burped.

"Dandan~"

I'm too full to eat anymore.

Judging from the results that Xiao Dian had shown Lin Xuan before, the power of his energy ball was not very strong, after all, he had just mastered it, but it was already very impressive for a beginner.

Especially for someone like Xiaodian, who probably didn't even know what an energy ball was just a few hours ago.

"You don't have class tomorrow morning, so I'll go with you to find a place to train. It's just that you can't really practice effectively at home."

Lin Xuan said that there were no classes tomorrow morning, and the next match was tomorrow afternoon, so there was a morning to use.

Lin Xuan wasn't initially interested in this freshman competition, but seeing how hard Xiao Dian was working, he was somewhat inspired. After all, he had to fulfill some of his responsibilities as a trainer.

Furthermore, Xiao Dian's terrifyingly strong talent in skill learning also gave Lin Xuan hope of achieving a good ranking.

If he remembers correctly, there are academic credits awarded for making it into the top eight.

The next morning, Lin Xuan got up early for once, taking Xiao Dian to the Pokémon Center to rent a training area. It was originally the kind of area reserved for Grass-type Pokémon, and Lin Xuan even asked for a power supply device. The equipment was quite complete, but it cost extra.

The downside is that the rent is a bit pricey, about one hundred yuan per hour, and the electricity for the equipment is extra, which is what Lin Xuan finds most rip-off.

But thinking about it carefully, it seems that the high price can't really be considered the other party's problem.

[I'm just too poor!]

Looking at the barely five-figure balance on her phone, Lin Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

He earned all this money through his live streams, but recently his live streams have become more popular, and the amount of gifts he receives has increased significantly. He also has Dr. Sun Siming's salary coming in next month...

I think I could afford to raise a small one.

Oh, and there's also an Eevee that's about to hatch, but the research institute will cover all of Eevee's upbringing costs, so Lin Xuan doesn't need to worry about it.
