How can I be a trainer when my girlfriend is so cute?

The sun has not yet completely unveiled its mysterious veil, but this vibrant coastal city has already started a new day. The morning glow is like a shy girl, gently sprinkled on the sky, dyeing the skyline a light golden red. In the distance, a group of pigeons flapped their wings and flew high. They flew through the mist together, as if performing a morning ritual. The sound of their wings flapping in the air, with vitality and energy, resounded in the tranquility of the early morning.

The gate of the arena slowly opens to welcome the early risers. Here, the passion and enthusiasm that has been dormant for a night are about to be ignited again. The audience pours in one after another, and their laughter and cheers interweave to form a morning symphony.

Fang Ci and Diancie followed the crowd into the arena. Diancie attracted a lot of attention due to her cute appearance. When they saw that it was Fang Ci next to Diancie, they all smiled at him kindly.

Because Diancie was too excited, she couldn't wait to pull Fang Ci out before dawn. When they walked into the contestant lounge, there were only a few people inside. The first day of competition directly screened out more than half of the contestants, and those who were able to stay were the elite among the elites.

As soon as Fang Ci sat down on the chair, Diancie couldn't hold back her curiosity and looked around the empty lounge with her big, sparkling eyes.

"Mr. Fang Ci!" Just as Fang Ci's eyelids began to feel heavy and the familiar sleepiness crept in like a wave, as if to devour his wakefulness, a crisp and energetic voice suddenly broke through the tranquility of the early morning. This voice was like a breeze in early summer, with a hint of coolness, instantly dispelling the sleepiness in Fang Ci's heart.

He was slightly startled, then turned around and saw a girl in a bright roller skating suit skating towards him quickly. Her long golden hair was tied into a high ponytail, which jumped in the air with her movements, making her look extremely youthful and energetic. The roller skates turned flexibly under her feet, as if they were integrated with her body. She was like a light butterfly, dancing on the floor.

The girl's face was filled with a bright smile, and her bright eyes sparkled with joy. She waved to Fang Ci and quickened her pace, as if she wanted to get to his side as quickly as possible.

"Mr. Fang Ci, I finally see you!" The girl slid in front of Fang Ci and stopped. She was panting slightly, but her face was still smiling. Fang Ci looked at her and smiled as well. The sleepiness he had just felt was instantly dispelled by the girl's vitality.

"Hello, Kernie!" Fang Ci's eyes flashed with surprise. He recognized the beautiful and energetic girl in front of him. She was wearing a light combat uniform and had a slender figure. She was Kernie, the gym leader of Sala City in the Galar region.

Ke Erni was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that Fang Ci, whom she had never met before, could call out her name accurately. She blinked and asked in surprise, "I didn't expect you to know me!"

Fang Ci explained with a smile: "Haha, I was very interested in mega evolution before, so I saw a lot of battle videos about mega evolution on the Internet. Among them, there are several exciting games of yours!"

Hearing Fang Ci's praise, Ke Er Ni showed a proud smile on her face. She joked: "I see, I thought my fame had spread to faraway Padya!"

Fang Ci was infected by Kernie's sense of humor and couldn't help laughing. His laughter was hearty and sincere, which made Kernie very happy. The atmosphere between the two became more relaxed and harmonious, as if they were good friends for many years.

"By the way, are you here to participate in the battle celebration as well?" Fang Ci asked curiously as he saw Kernee coming to the arena so early.

"Although I also want to participate in this celebration, it's a pity that I just returned to Sala City yesterday and missed the registration time. I came here today just to see if there is anything I can do to help." Hearing Fang Ci's question, Kernie's eyes dimmed and she said with regret.

"I see. I thought I'd have a chance to fight against you, Korni, this time." Hearing this, Fang Ci said with some regret.

"Although it's a pity that I can't play against you, don't worry, I have seen the player information sheet. You will definitely enjoy the next game!" Kerni's little face was full of anticipation, as if she had already seen a wonderful battle.

"Then, Kernee, can you tell me which opponents are worth paying attention to?" Seeing Kernee's expression, Fang Ci couldn't help but joked.

"No, after yesterday's game, this information can be seen on the Internet. Fang Ci, you should search it yourself." After all, Kernee is now a staff member of the battle celebration, and a lot of the information she knows must be kept confidential.

Afraid that if she continued chatting, she might not be able to control herself and tell Fang Ci some information that shouldn’t be disclosed, Ke Er Ni looked at her phone and said to Fang Ci: “Grandpa is looking for my help, so I won’t chat with you any longer. I will definitely cheer you on during your competition!”

After saying that, Ke'erni waved to Fang Ci and left in a hurry on her roller skates.

After watching the girl's back disappear at the end of the corridor, Fang Ci retracted his gaze and lowered his head, just in time to meet Diancie's eyes that were flashing with cunning.

"Who was that cute girl just now?" Diancie asked curiously.

"Her name is Korni. She's the gym owner of the Sala City Gym. She's a very powerful trainer who's good at using fighting-attribute Pokémon." Fang Ci explained patiently.

"Oh~ So you think she's cute too, right?"

Fang Ci: “???”

After hearing what Diancie said, for a moment Fang Ci thought that the person standing opposite him was Qi Shu.

“Who did you learn this from?” Fang Ci finally reacted when he saw the cunning light in Diancie’s eyes. He held his forehead and said helplessly.

"Of course it's the chat records between you and Qishu!" Diancie said very honestly.

So you were holding my phone until midnight last night just to look at my chat history, right?

Seeing Fang Ci's speechless expression, Diancie covered her mouth and chuckled. While laughing, she gently patted Fang Ci's shoulder with her little hand and said, "Don't worry, I will never tell Qishu about what happened this morning unless she buys me some delicious Feiyun ice cream!"

So, it only takes an ice cream princess to sell her knight, right? Besides, he didn't do anything out of the ordinary behind Qi Shu's back, and his conversation with Kernee was just a normal conversation between friends, and they were not very familiar with each other.
