Pokémon: The Journey of Ordinary People

After arranging the work in Alora, Zhang Yu prepared to head home.

Having not seen them for a long time, he also missed his Pokémon at home and his girlfriend, Ririe, very much.

[Ayu, when will you be back? I miss you so much~]

[While you were gone, Shemi has gained weight!]

……

Looking at the string of messages on her phone, Zhang Yu couldn't help but smile and replied, "I'll be there soon, be a good girl and wait for me at home~"

This time when he goes back, it's time to propose to his girlfriend. He's already prepared the engagement ring.

Sitting atop the Ironfire Kaguya, Zhang Yu gazed at the sea merging with the distant sky, fluffy white clouds drifting by, the sky, clouds, and water creating a peaceful and serene scene.

This time when Zhang Yu went back, he also brought back the Ultra Beasts he had captured, so that they could meet their friends and see more of the outside world.

Seeing the different scenery, Pheromosa forgot about the sparkling gem in her hand and just excitedly took pictures with her phone.

Other Pokémon were also experiencing this kind of open-air flight for the first time. Those that could already fly, like Pidgeot and Beedrill, played a chase game in the air.

It must be said that the giant Kaguya's back is incredibly wide, nearly 30 meters long, almost like a small playground.

Of course, the costs are also very high; Zhang Yu's savings alone have spent over 100,000 Pokémon coins just on food for it.

After taking out some konpeito (Japanese candy) and feeding it to Tetsuka Kaguya, Zhang Yu lay down on the spot, leisurely gazing at the sky in a daze, his thoughts gradually drifting away.

……

"Wuhu~ Ayu is coming back!!"

Lillie jumped up from the sofa with a happy smile, but after seeing Piccolo's slightly teasing look, she quickly cleared her throat and pretended nothing was wrong to continue working.

The blush on her face hadn't faded, a testament to her inner turmoil.

It's been more than half a year since we last saw each other, and we don't video chat much. Not only Lili Ai misses him, but Mei Mei, Hua Hua, Pi Ke Xi, and Shemi are also very happy to hear that Zhang Yu is coming back soon.

For a period of time, the League concealed Zhang Yu's achievements for the sake of the mission, keeping many trainers unaware of the truth in the dark. This led to resistance against Zhang Yu and many things related to him.

Even the nursery was temporarily closed, and Lillie was managing it all. Although she wasn't tired, she was very worried about her boyfriend's safety.

Daigo doesn't even dare to visit his cousin anymore; her resentment is enough to overwhelm him.

But now things are alright. The mission was successfully completed, and the alliance did not let Zhang Yu down. They revealed the truth to the public and greatly commended Zhang Yu's contributions.

Currently, Zhang Yu's popularity, boosted by her various titles, is ridiculously high, rivaling even that of world championship winners.

As a result, the breeding center reopened, and its popularity has increased several times over. The Pokémon are busy every day, and everything is getting better and better.

"Cough!"

With its four strong arms working together, the superhuman strength lifted a full pot of soup.

"Everyone, come and have dinner!"

Nami's voice was broadcast throughout the entire nursery via loudspeaker.

Instantly, the ground began to shake violently; someone unfamiliar with the situation might have thought it was an earthquake.

Actually, this is just a routine mealtime at the nursery.

Now, Chef Machamp's culinary skills are famous far and wide. Many Pokémon come to the breeding center just for his cooking. What's even more surprising is that not only Pokémon, but also many trainers love Machamp's food.

I'd rather pay extra to try the food here.

"Cough~"

With a silly grin, Guai Li opened the pot lid, and instantly, billowing steam filled the air.

"Everyone must be starving! Tonight, we're having hot and sour pork soup for dinner!"

Nami and the other staff greeted the Pokémon and the hungry trainers, telling them to sit down.

Then they placed bowls of meat soup in front of them.

"Wow~ Adding spicy tomato neutralizes the acidity of the apple and enhances the flavor of the beef!"

"One bite, and it's like the afterglow of the sunset—so delicious!"

"Ah~ Thank you! Superhuman chef! For gifting me this delicious food!"

A trainer was savoring the taste of his soup, when he suddenly noticed his Pokémon secretly moving the bowl around.

"Hey, long-eared rabbit, don't steal my soup!"

"..."

What is your trainer mumbling about? If you're not going to drink, then drink!

It has to be said that Pokémon Technologies' gene cloning technology is incredibly useful.

Any type of meat can be cloned, all-natural and pollution-free.

Even poaching has decreased significantly in some remote areas, indirectly reducing crime.

However, there are downsides. While obtaining meat has become easier, the obesity rate of trainers' Pokémon is gradually increasing.

As a result, many weight loss institutions, including Meng, have sprung up in various places.

Seeing that its food was still so popular, Guai Li's smile grew even brighter. It really enjoyed this way of realizing its value.

Good times always pass too quickly. After dinner, the paired Pokémon were all taken home by their trainers.

Just as Nami was about to close the door to the nursery, a shout stopped her.

Good evening, Nami~

"Ba na~" x2

A car pulled up in front of the nursery. Lillie, along with Mimi and Hana, got out of the car and greeted Nami.

"Sister Lili Ai~ What brings you here?"

Nami was overjoyed and skipped over to hug Lillie.

"Oh my~ Little Nami~ Hahaha"

Lillie smiled and patted Nami's head, then said...

"Ayu is coming home today, so I'm going home early to wait for him~"

"That's it~"

Nami blinked, as if she had thought of something, and gave a knowing smile.

"Oh, I see. Well then, Sister Lili, I'll head off work now, so I won't disturb your time with Brother Ayu~"

After saying that, Nami chuckled, waved to Lillie, and left the nursery.

Lillie was left standing there, blushing and shy.

"This kid is so young but so clever!"

Lili Ai suddenly chuckled softly, then said to Mei Mei and Hua Hua...

Let's go inside~

"Waiting for Ayu to come home~"
