"Alright, then give me 5."
Hearing this, the staff took out 5 eggs, packed them in a box, and handed them to Anjie. The inside of the box had a shock-absorbing effect to prevent the eggs from being broken.
"Thank you." Anjie took the box, happily holding it in his hand.
Bubu jumped down from Anjie and circled around the box.
"Bu ~ Bu ~ ~" Is this also delicious?
"Of course, it's very delicious, so delicious that you'll swallow your tongue!" Anjie said.
"Bu ~ ~"
Upon hearing this, Bubu immediately fell into a fantasy, drooling unconsciously.
Anjie pushed the cart out, "We should go!"
Seeing this, Bubu quickly wiped the corner of its mouth and followed.
At the checkout, the salesperson looked at Anjie with a very strange gaze. Could this person be some kind of reseller? Who in their right mind would hoard so much stuff at once?
After checking out, Anjie left with the items, feeling embarrassed. The salesperson's gaze was too blatant, almost directly asking if he was a reseller.
Fortunately, his physique was amazing now, otherwise, it wouldn't be easy to carry so many things out of the supermarket.
Finding a secluded corner, he put all the items into his backpack. Anjie carried Bubu to the airport and boarded the aircraft back to the Carlos region.
Pokémon world aircrafts do not allow large Pokémon to board, but small Pokémon like Bubu are fine, even without a ticket.
However, some slightly larger humanoid Pokémon, such as Gardevoir, Hatterene, Machamp, etc., need to buy an extra ticket if they want to board.
Most people would rather buy an extra ticket than put their Pokémon back into the Poké Ball, not because it's uncomfortable in the Poké Ball, but because they enjoy the feeling of being with their Pokémon day and night.
With Bubu, Anjie found his seat and sat down, then boredly took out his phone to browse the news.
In the world of Pokémon, all aircrafts provide in-flight wireless service, so you can directly connect to the internet and play on your phone on the aircraft.
Bubu in Anjie's arms saw that Anjie was intently fiddling with his phone, so it reached out and tugged at Anjie's arm twice.
"Do you want to play too?" Anjie asked.
"Bu ~ Bu ~ ~"
Bubu nodded.
Bubu was sitting in Anjie's arms, Anjie placed the phone in front of it, and then began to teach it how to operate the phone.
Pokémon world technology has developed to this day, and the functions of mobile phones have become very convenient, even Pokémon can easily get started.
Before long, Bubu was having a great time playing by itself.
Seeing Bubu having fun, Anjie withdrew his gaze from it and opened his system. He still had rewards from two tasks that he hadn't claimed yet!
Looking at the two tasks on the taskbar, Anjie first claimed the reward for the first task.
Congratulations, Master, for completing the [Aura Cultivation Task] contacting 1000 Pokémon and feeling the Aura within them (1059/1000). Reward: Intelligence +1, Constitution +1, "Aura Culinary Training Manual".
The first two rewards were standard rewards, but the last reward was a pleasant surprise! He had been worried that even if he awakened Aura, he didn't seem to know how to use it, but he didn't expect the system to be prepared.
Using the cover of the space backpack, Anjie took out the "Aura Culinary Training Manual", but the moment he held the manual, he was stunned.
You call this thing that is 35cm long, 20cm wide, and 10cm thick a "manual"?
Holding it in his hand, Anjie only felt a weight.
He opened the book and glanced at the table of contents, and found that the book was divided into two parts. The first part was about how to cultivate Aura and enhance Aura, and the second part was about how to use Aura to process ingredients.
The content was very detailed, and Anjie flipped through it casually, and was dizzy by the dense text on it.
Temporarily putting the book into the system backpack, Anjie claimed the reward for the second task, he had deliberately waited for both tasks to be completed before claiming the rewards.
The system immediately jumped out of a prompt.
Congratulations, Master, for completing the [Temporary Task] Requesting Dr. Oran and Dr. Futo to modify Robert No. 1. Reward: Individual Value +3.
The reward for the second task can only be said to be so-so.
Anjie looked at his personal information.
Anjie
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 16 (+500)
Constitution: 43
Intelligence: 22
Culinary Evaluation: A culinary newbie who has just qualified.
Constitution and intelligence have indeed increased.
As for the 3 individual values he just got, it should be given to Metagross because of Metagross, but he can't see Metagross's data now, so it's not good to add it randomly.
What if Metagross's individual value in a certain item is already full, and he is still foolishly adding to it, then it would be too wasteful.
So let's give it to Munchlax first, and compensate Metagross later.
Anjie added 2 points to Munchlax's HP and the remaining 1 point to attack.
Munchlax's data at this time is as follows.
Munchlax (Evolutionary Stone)
[Attribute] Normal
[Characteristic] Thick Fat
[Gender] Male
[Level] 43
[Skills] Tackle, Lick, Defense Curl, Recycle, Covet, Bite, Stockpile, Swallow, Body Slam, Fling, Amnesia, Take Down, Play Rough, Seed Bomb, Brick Break, Payback, Ice Punch, Thunder Punch, Fire Punch.
[Individual Values]
HP: 31
Attack: 27
Defense: 20
Special Attack: 31
Special Defense: 10
Speed: 31
Now Munchlax has three individual values that are full.
However, looking at Munchlax's skill bar, Anjie was slightly stunned. Ice Punch, Thunder Punch, and Fire Punch, when did it learn these three punches? It clearly didn't have them before!
Could it be that it learned them from other Pokémon on the plateau?
There are indeed Pokémon on the Nibel Plateau that know these three skills. For example, Poliwrath knows Ice Punch, Pachirisu knows Thunder Punch, and Scrafty knows Fire Punch.
It seems that Munchlax is also working hard in silence! A gratified smile appeared on Anjie's face.
After claiming the rewards for the two tasks, Anjie took out the "Aura Culinary Training Manual" again and began to study it carefully, anyway, he was laughing when he was idle.
As he watched, Anjie couldn't help but start practicing according to the instructions in the manual.
He closed his eyes and mobilized the Aura in his body to wander all over his body. At this moment, everyone on the plane disappeared from his sight. They all turned into very pure Aura.
Some of these Auras were strong, some were weak, some were active, some were silent... all different.
A girl was sitting in the seat next to An Jie, covering her face with her clothes and snoring loudly, while a Lucario was sitting next to the girl.
What An Jie didn't know was that when he was practicing Aura, the Lucario subconsciously craned its neck to look at him.
Sensing the unusual Aura emanating from An Jie, the Lucario's face showed confusion.
Time unknowingly came to evening, and An Jie opened his eyes and stopped cultivating.
"Still playing on your phone?" An Jie patted Bubo's head and said.
"Bu ~ Bu ~" Phone, fun!
Bubo excitedly held up the phone.
"What are you playing?" An Jie asked.
"Bu ~ ~ Bu ~ ~"
Upon hearing this, Bubo turned the phone screen towards An Jie. On the screen was a flamboyantly dressed girl talking animatedly.
"Good morning, good afternoon, good evening, hello!"
"I'll use an electric net to capture your eyeballs!"
… …
Isn't this Iono? An Jie recognized the girl's identity at a glance.
Iono is not only the Gym Leader of Levincia in the Paldea region, but also a popular streamer.
"You like this?" An Jie looked surprised.
"Bu ~ Bu ~ ~"
Bubo gesticulated happily, telling An Jie about the interesting aspects of Iono's livestream.
As an Electric-type Gym Leader, Iono not only livestreams interesting events in the gym, but also talks about a lot of Electric-type Pokémon's training experience, which Bubo likes very much.
Bubo watched for a while, and An Jie took the phone from its hand. Bubo originally wanted to resist, but when he heard An Jie say, "It's time for us to eat dinner."
Bubo instantly gave up struggling.
Eating is still more important.
Soon An Jie asked the flight attendant for two meals. He had never eaten the Pokémon world's in-flight meal, so he especially wanted to try it.
An Jie was sitting in business class, so the in-flight meal was very rich, with appetizers, main courses, desserts, as well as red wine and various drinks.
An Jie casually ate a few bites and only felt that the taste was average.
His own cooking skills are getting better and better now. Having gotten used to eating his own food, he inevitably finds it hard to swallow these foods now.
If he could make something like at the Treasure Eatery, he would be willing to eat more.
However, Bubo, who had never seen the world, ate with relish, not only eating his own portion cleanly, but also eating what An Jie hadn't finished.
"Burp ~ ~"
After eating, Bubo lay on An Jie's lap with a round belly, and burped contentedly.
"Bu ~ Bu ~" Not as good as An Jie's cooking.
While burping, it commented on today's lunch.
"Then why did you eat so much?" An Jie pinched its belly and said.
"Bu ~ Bu ~" Can't waste it.
Because he didn't eat much, An Jie took out a glass of Green Grass Goat Milk from his system backpack and started drinking it.
This Green Grass Goat Milk is produced by the Mountain Goats on the Nibel Plateau. An Jie himself added Pecha Berry juice to it, so it is very delicious.
Seeing An Jie gulping down the goat milk, Bubo sat up in a flash and reached out to An Jie.
"Bu ~ Bu ~" I want to drink it too! I want to drink it too!
"Okay, okay!" An Jie agreed while taking out a bottle and handing it to it.
Gulp ~ Gulp ~ Gulp ~
Bubo held the milk bottle and drank it all in one go. In an instant, it drank every last drop of the goat milk, and then it licked the milk bottle frantically.
"Bu ~" So delicious.
Sticking the empty milk bottle into An Jie's hand, Bubo stretched out its hand to An Jie again.
"Bu ~" More.
An Jie slapped its palm, "No more! Drink again later!"
Bubo didn't pester, pouted, turned around, and picked up the phone to play again. Iono's livestream had ended, so it watched Iono's previous livestream content.
An Jie put away the empty milk bottle, turned his head and saw a Lucario looking at him. He was stunned for a moment, then took out a bottle of milk and asked:
"Want to drink?"
Lucario was also stunned for a moment, not expecting An Jie to ask this. It hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
"Lucario ~" Thank you.
An Jie smiled and handed over the Green Grass Goat Milk.
Lucario took the milk bottle and opened it. The sweet aroma wafted out. After taking a big gulp, it instantly fell in love with this fragrant and sweet goat milk.
At this time, the sleeping girl shrugged her nose and opened her eyes.
"What's that smell?"
She kept groggily bringing her head closer to Lucario, and her consciousness gradually returned.
"Lucario, where did you get this?"
Smelling the sweet aroma of milk, the girl subconsciously swallowed.
"Lucario ~ ~"
Lucario pointed to An Jie next to it.
Seeing this, the girl quickly apologized to An Jie.
"Um… I'm sorry, did my Lucario cause you any trouble just now?"
An Jie shook his head, "No, no, it's very well-behaved. I just gave it a bottle of Green Grass Goat Milk."
The girl breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
An Jie looked at the girl in front of him. Earlier, she had her head covered with clothes, and An Jie didn't see what she looked like. Now that he looked at her, she looked very familiar!
She seems to be… Korrina, the Gym Leader of Shalour City.
The Shalour City Gym specializes in Fighting-types, and it is said that this gym hides the heritage of Mega Evolution.
Sure enough, the girl immediately introduced herself.
"My name is Korrina, and this is my partner Lucario. We just came back from traveling in the Paldea region."
"Lucario ~" Lucario followed suit and waved to An Jie.
"Hello, Korrina." An Jie also introduced himself, "My name is An Jie, and this is my partner Bubo." Saying that, he patted Bubo, who was playing on his phone, "Bubo, say hello to Korrina and Lucario. You're being too rude!"
"Bu ~ Bu ~"
Only then did Bubo move his gaze away from the phone, and then raised a smiling face to wave hello to Korrina and Lucario.
"So cute." Korrina praised it.
Then An Jie and Korrina chatted idly, and the journey was finally not so boring.
During this time, An Jie saw Korrina looking at Lucario's milk bottle and swallowing, so he generously gave her a bottle as well.
Two days later, the airship landed in Lumiose City, the center of the Kalos region. An Jie and Korrina said goodbye here.
In two days, the two got along very well. An Jie also invited Korrina and Lucario to visit Azoth Kingdom when they had time.
After the separation, An Jie took Bubo and boarded the light rail back to Azoth Kingdom.
Lumiose City is the center of the Kalos region, with developed transportation, so it only took half a day for An Jie and the others to return to Azoth Kingdom.
"Bu ~ Bu ~"
Standing on the cable belt of the Royal City, Bubo curiously looked at the scenery of Azoth Kingdom, which was different from other cities.
An Jie smiled and said to Bubo, "Bubo, welcome to Azoth Kingdom. This is my hometown, and also the place where you will live in the future."
