Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

Then Manaphy gave Lin Xuan a slightly more serious reminder.

In fact, Eevee's accumulated potential has reached a very high limit, which is somewhat unbelievable even to him. Generally speaking, a Pokémon that can develop deep potential must be at least a five-star Pokémon.

As for those who can truly unlock most of their potential, they would have to be on par with legendary Pokémon. Even Manaphy wouldn't dare say that it has fully achieved that.

Even though Ibrahimovic has only touched the surface, it has already greatly surprised Manaphy.

"Mana~"

After thinking for a moment, Manaphy sighed and decided that, for the sake of the old man, she would help him to the end.

After saying that, a light blue energy emanated from Manaphy's body and covered Eevee's body, along with the Evolution Stone.

"This is……"

Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment when she saw Manaphy's actions, but she could roughly guess that this was definitely beneficial to Ibrahimovic, while Manaphy was still muttering to herself.

[What a huge loss! What a huge loss!]

I should have just left it there and ignored it. Now I have to provide after-sales service. It's a huge loss no matter how I look at it.

"Boy!"

Manaphy pulled the Evolution Stone that Eevee was holding in its mouth out of its mouth, startling Eevee into glaring at him. Wasn't it supposed to be for her?

Then Manaphy's power crushed the entire Evolution Stone into dust, and with his help, it merged with Eevee.

"Mana~"

After finishing all this, Manaphy breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, he hadn't failed, especially since this was his first time doing something like this. As for why he hadn't told Lin Xuan beforehand...

Imagine this: when you go for surgery, you tell the doctor it's your first time and you're nervous. The doctor then reassures you that it's their first time too, and they're more nervous than you.

I don't know what the patient was thinking, but he must have been running very fast.

Fortunately, it went smoothly, and Manaphy nodded in satisfaction as he looked at his "masterpiece".

Eevee was still enveloped in a pale blue light, but its superpowers seemed to have been stimulated and were surging outwards wildly.

Eevee clearly felt as if a barrier within his body had been opened, and all the superpowers that were originally hidden deep within his body surged forth—Eevee had broken through!

It should be said that Eevee had long reached the critical point of breakthrough. If she had chosen to evolve like Gallade, she should have broken through long ago. But because she has not evolved for so long, that genetic shackle has always bound her.

Now, with the help of Manaphy and the Evolution Stone, this shackle has been broken.

"Ibrahimovic... broke through?"

Seeing Eevee's even stronger superpowers than before, Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment before becoming overjoyed.

I originally thought Eevee would be stuck before reaching three stars for a while, but it ended up getting ahead of Gallade.

"Elu~"

Gallade crossed his arms in front of his chest. Although he had finally caught up with Eevee only to be overtaken again, he was not discouraged. He could feel his strength steadily improving, and even without external interference, a breakthrough would only take a few days.

Then... he'll definitely keep making Eevee call him "brother"!

"Booey!!!"

The happiest of all was Eevee, who, upon realizing its breakthrough, immediately jumped back into Lin Xuan's arms, giving Gallade a provocative look.

See that? Your sister is still your sister!

Little Dot wanted to show Ibu what a real big brother was like, but after thinking about it, today was a day to be happy about, so let this guy be smug for a while... I'll teach her a lesson after midnight!

"Thank you!"

Lin Xuan carried Eevee forward and sincerely addressed Manaphy. Manaphy, who had initially felt a little tired, instantly perked up upon seeing Lin Xuan's attitude and casually waved her hand, indicating that it was nothing.

As the prince of the ocean, isn't it a simple matter for him to help other Pokémon develop their potential?

No problem, no problem at all~

"Then see if you can help me with the rest..."

Before Lin Xuan could finish speaking, he felt a superpower shut him up and throw him to a pile of props.

"Mana!"

Once you've chosen your items, get out of here!

Manaphy said sullenly, "How can this kid be so clueless? Does he really think he's not tired from doing this?"

Normally, developing potential requires at least a Master level – that is, a five-star level. Even if you help Eevee develop its potential a little bit, it's still very tiring. And this is only if Eevee has already met the requirements.

Do you really think he's Ho-Oh? You think you can conjure up the Three Holy Beasts for him in a heartbeat?

"Well, let's try something else~" Lin Xuan blinked, then pointed to himself, "Look, as the prince of the Canghai, don't you have any special abilities you can pass on? Like superpowers, aura power, or water manipulation, anything would be fine, or at the very least, telepathy, right?"

Logically speaking—as depicted in novels—it seems unreasonable not to grant some special abilities in this situation, right?

Manaphy simply shook his head and said...

You have superpowers, but they're not for you.

Lin Xuan was unhappy when he heard this. Why was he not suitable for her?

Your talent is so poor, it would be a waste to give it to you.

In fact, after meeting Lin Xuan, he checked his aptitude. Well... it wouldn't be objective to say it was bad, but it was just very average, at the level of an ordinary person. Instead of worrying about his abilities, he should practice his superpowers more.

"I think there's still a chance I can be saved!"

Lin Xuan said unwillingly, "I finally got to see a legendary Pokémon, and I feel like I'm missing out if I don't get some free stuff."

Do you still want the remaining two items?

"want!"

Lin Xuan said directly, "Why not take it? We've already run out of other things, so let's hurry up and take some good stuff with us."

While Lin Xuan was selecting items, Manaphy was also giving her reminders.

Ibrahimovic's potential was unlocked ahead of schedule, which has both advantages and disadvantages.

The downside is that Eevee's power might become less stable, because the genes of Eevee are inherently unstable, and premature development of its potential will only exacerbate this situation.

However, this drawback is clearly not enough to overshadow the advantages of potential development. For a long time to come, there will be no more obstacles to Ibrahimovic's improvement in strength. At the same time, those unstable potentials, if they can be used well, may also be an advantage.

Manaphy was naturally aware of the special nature of Eevee, which is why she reminded Lin Xuan of this.

Lin Xuan picked through a pile of props and found something else.

Lin Xuan picked up a bottle and shook it. It seemed to contain something, like a liquid. Lin Xuan couldn't help but ask a question out of curiosity.

"what is this?"

Manaphy glanced at it, seemingly trying to recall something; he had so many things that he couldn't remember what it was for a moment.

A few seconds later, Manaphy finally found the information about the bottle in his jumbled memories.

"Mana~"

[Emrid's bathwater~]

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan was so frightened that she threw the thing away and then looked at Manaphy with disbelief.

"You have this kind of fetish?"

Chapter 260 The Power of the First Poisonous Milk

Luckily, Manaphy was quick and took the bottle from him. Then he saw Lin Xuan and Eevee looking at him with strange eyes, especially Eevee, whose eyes even had a hint of... disgust?

How awful! Am I that kind of person?

"Mana mana!"

[It's just ordinary lake water! It was only purified by that guy Emrido and gained a trace of his power!]

Manaphy explained to himself that he was not the kind of person who would steal other people's bathwater; this water... he brought it back openly and honestly!

"I understand, I understand. Even legendary Pokémon have some little-known secrets. I'll keep them for you!"

But Lin Xuan didn't care about any of that. She just nodded to herself and said she was willing to keep Manaphy's secret.

Manaphy now finally understands why that old man said Lin Xuan was a bit like him in the past—he really is just as annoying!

"Mana mana!"

Choose what you want now! Then get out of here!

Manaphy swiftly issued an order to leave, and Lin Xuan quickly chose the last two items—the ball of fire from the firebird and the "bathwater" from Emberdo.

Among the other precious items, there are also top-tier water stones and mysterious water droplets, but they are not of much use to Lin Xuan. After all, these things can be bought as long as you spend more time waiting and have more money.

Both items are related to legendary Pokémon, and even if they only contain a trace of their energy, they are extremely precious. The only pity is that they only contain Moltres's flames instead of Zapdos's feathers, otherwise they would be really useful to Little Point.

However, if it really is a Zapdos feather, Manaphy probably wouldn't be willing to give it to him...

Lin Xuan could also see that although the items Manaphy had brought out were valuable, they were mostly only valuable to a certain extent, and certainly not his entire collection.

"Mana mana~"

After watching Lin Xuan finish selecting his items, Manaphy waved his hand, thinking he should get rid of the guy as soon as possible. This little rascal was just like that old man; he never wanted to see him again.

He also instructed Lin Xuan not to tell anyone about what happened here.
