Let me see… I’ll have a Sealeo made.”】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【“Heh, about Sealeo—it was actually a mistake I made in my youth. Long ago, because of my immaturity, I let Sealeo fall into danger. On the Twin Islands of Kanto, I was supposed to save the fallen Sealeo…”】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【“But unexpectedly, I collapsed too. After that, I reflected on my immaturity and became someone who teaches others to understand harshness.”】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【“Later, I was badly burned by a Magmar in battle and lay bedridden. My Piloswine left during a blizzard and never returned—I thought it had abandoned me. So I trained Pokémon strictly, kept my distance, and avoided forming bonds of trust with them.”】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【“But not long ago, someone taught me that the bond between Pokémon and humans can never fade. You must have Pokémon too—cherish the time you’ve spent with them.”】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【“Ah, sorry—I’ve slipped into my old habit again. If I can’t even fix myself, how can I lecture others?”】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guang Tai chatted with Liu Bo and learned of his past experiences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But was this experience from “game + anime”? Then added with the special episodes’ profession?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, it’s a hybrid world—and this perfectly matches Liu Bo’s own words: “I’ve tasted all kinds of pain.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If we add the Lapras death incident, Liu Bo’s life has been rather unfortunate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, this world’s Liu Bo never went to extremes and became Masked Man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing his chat with Liu Bo, the message box chimed again—Guang Tai then realized it was a message from a customer who had recently purchased a sculpture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Avant-Garde Art】: “I apologize for intruding—if I’ve disturbed you, I offer my sincerest regrets!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Though abrupt, your sculpture has utterly captivated me—it is truly avant-garde art!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“On approximately September 15, a sculpture exhibition will be held in Deep Bowl Town, Paldea. I fervently hope you will attend—I will cover all travel expenses if you are willing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huh? Another sculpture invitation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guang Tai thought carefully: earlier, Matsuba from Yuenzhu City had invited him to Yuenzhu City, Steel Mister wanted to find him, Liu Bo had reached out, and now this customer’s tone—could it be Master Kossa?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can my sculptures amaze these sculpting masters? Probably because of the style of the Divine Capital ruins.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After careful thought, Guang Tai confirmed the timing—it did not conflict with Liu Bo’s ice sculpture exhibition, which was in November—so he accepted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Avant-Garde Art】: “Thank you so much for agreeing! I will prepare thoroughly for your arrival!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need to prepare thoroughly—I’ll come on my own. My sculpting art.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Avant-Garde Art】: “That rustic sculpting technique is precisely what draws me! The unique charm and cultural value of ancient works fused with modern ones create a powerful, distinctive energy!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, I’ve intruded so boldly without revealing my identity—I apologize. I am Kossa, Gym Leader of Deep Bowl Town, and also a moderately famous sculptor!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moderately famous? That can’t be right—it must be extremely famous!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guang Tai: “I’m just an ordinary craftsman.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Avant-Garde Art】: “How humble! Don’t doubt yourself—you possess an eye and sense for beauty as a craftsman; you’ve simply been so immersed in sculpting that you never noticed! Your works have profoundly inspired me during my creative block! I’ll be waiting for you in Deep Bowl Town!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another invitation added—before even leaving the Divine Capital, his schedule was already packed; he felt a faint pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But being recognized by others was a good thing, Guang Tai thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His goal was to revive the workshop—if attending these exhibitions would make his workshop more renowned, he must attend!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is good!” Guang Tai smiled: “I must keep working hard!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least get those offline folks in Johto to take notice!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the following time, Guang Tai continued sculpting, and with the help of Doublade, finished the remaining two sculptures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Completed a craft production!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Craft: Large [Ancient Stone Statue]—Style of the Divine Capital Ruins.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Description: A stone statue carved in ancient style, depicting Machamp (One-Hit Style), with lifelike carving and authentic antiquing—some collectors will pay high prices.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Craft Effect: Dark Mystery—Significantly boosts the offensive power of Dark-type Pokémon; training efficiency +25%.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Completed a craft production!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Craft: Large [Ancient Stone Statue]—Style of the Divine Capital Ruins.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Description: A stone statue carved in ancient style, depicting Dreepy, with lifelike carving and authentic antiquing—some collectors will pay high prices.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Craft Effect: Fierce Power—Increases efficiency of object destruction (including rock-breaking) by 15%.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Due to repeated completion of tasks, knowledge gained.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Master Sculptor: Efficiency and skill in carving large works increased by 25%; carved works are more beautiful, beauty +25%.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Phew, done.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guang Tai sat on the steps, clenched his fist—under multiple knowledge boosts, his sculpting speed, efficiency, and strength had greatly improved; with Doublade’s help, his carving speed was extraordinarily fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stones in his hands no longer felt like stone—almost… soft under the tools?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Improved forging craft had made his tools even better—positive reinforcement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All three Pokémon gathered around, gazing at the three large sculptures. On the other side, the sleeping Regirock awoke, stood up, and walked over to the sculptures—its H-shaped mark flickered; it was satisfied with the carving techniques used—this was a professional evaluation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guang Tai began muttering again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had made many ancient stone statues, but awakening power from ancient bracelets was hard to obtain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let me search online—maybe the disk version of TM produced by Silph Co. mentions awakening power.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although awakening power is generally considered exclusive to Relicanth, some Pokémon can naturally learn it through leveling up—even a human might.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the game, a fat man living near Rage Lake gained awakening power through psychic meditation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Guang Tai opened his PokéGear and checked the shipping status of his purchased items. Items from Hoenn and Galar still needed time—delivery estimated in two days—but the express package from Johto and Kanto had already arrived at the Vermilion City Pokémon Center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason for not delivering immediately was likely because his location was remote—they’d wait until all orders arrived before shipping them together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That Charizard would have to work again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Guang Tai planned to rearrange the Symbol Plates’ words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm, I’ve already arranged the Regieleki word. If I rearrange again, something unexpected might happen. To avoid troubling Regieleki, what if I arrange the Symbol Plates as ‘Roserade’? The crop effect should be similar?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this time, Roserade should still be in “Roserade Powerless” state—not the Fertile King, but the Barren King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I establish a connection now, will I drain its last strength—or will I give it a bit of faith?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Guang Tai noticed a black eye on the back of one sculpture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah, it’s the lazy Relicanth E!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Annon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relicanth E floated up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It indicated it could help!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Help… you heard what I just said?” Guang Tai stared in surprise at Relicanth E, which immediately shook its body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes—it had come to help use “Awakening Power”!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Guang Tai’s expression quickly shifted from surprise to delight, and he began pondering again:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But Awakening Power… supposedly, Relicanth can turn thoughts into reality.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Guang Tai’s muttering, Relicanth E suddenly looked guilty!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This moment had come!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Pokémon noticed Relicanth E seemed to have something to say—they stared at it strangely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doublade sensed this was no simple matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miss Qun also cast a suspicious glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Bulbasaur sensed something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yow?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qun.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relicanth E shook its body—it decided to answer honestly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It told Guang Tai that the dreams last night were its doing, but only to fulfill Guang Tai’s wish—no malice intended!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, Relicanth E’s eyes immediately relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guang Tai was also surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So the dreams were connected to you! Hmm, that explains it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Guang Tai had no intention of blaming Relicanth E—he smiled:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Actually, I should thank you. Because of your power, I formed a bond with that incredible Pokémon—you saw it in the dreams too, didn’t you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thanks to your power, I had this extraordinary encounter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Relicanth, your meeting with me is one thread in this life’s wonder.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relicanth E stared at Guang Tai, then happily emitted a sound!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Annon!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1436,"2026-06-19T14:14:16.243Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","850eeab5689ef0f33015134de8f044b94f7b01a281d67ce6260cf73a41919a0a","master-craftsman-in-the-world-of-elves-chapter-84","master-craftsman-in-the-world-of-elves-chapter-82",312,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmaster-craftsman-in-the-world-of-elves-cover.jpg"]
