Chapter 1241

Carmine wanted to say something but stopped.

Drayton teased: "Could it be that he's afraid to see people?"

Although Kieran didn't make a big deal about the agreement between him and Kieran, everyone could still clearly remember the scene of this kid throwing a tantrum back then.

Carmine shook her head. "That's not it……"

"That kid is a Champion now~"

Cyrano said with a smile, looking at Nemona as if thinking about something.

Champion!

Penny and Drayton looked at each other.

She spoke up: "I remember the Champion of the Unova region…… is Iris, right?"

Iris was defeated by Kieran? When did this happen? Why wasn't there any related news?

Kieran suddenly remembered what Drayton had told him and said: "Are you talking about the Champion of the Blueberry League?"

"Hmm."

Cyrano nodded.

Nemona also helped explain: "Blueberry Academy has a League Club composed of students, which often holds battles for internal ranking, calling itself the Blueberry League.

"The five strongest among them are called the Champion and the Elite Four."

What kind of Champion are you?

Blueberry Champion!

Penny and Drayton were instantly relieved; Kieran suddenly becoming a Champion after half a year of not seeing him really gave them a scare.

"When I came over last time, I even battled the president of the League Club; I remember his name was…… Drayton?"

Nemona said: "He should have graduated by now, right?"

"That guy has been held back three times."

Carmine crossed her arms and hummed: "He's not a good person! Smiling all day long, not knowing what he's thinking!"

Hearing this, Cyrano very seriously crossed his hands into an X shape and said: "Carmine, speaking ill of people behind their backs is wrong, even if what you say makes sense."

What the hell makes sense!

Drayton and Penny were speechless, while Kieran felt the name sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

"But he's a Champion, what does that have to do with him not coming over?"

Drayton was still puzzled: "I remember he claimed to worship Kieran? Doesn't he worship him anymore?"

The impatient Carmine was embarrassed and angry. "That's not it! He, he just rarely talks to me anymore."

She said with a desolate expression: "Ever since returning from Kitakami, Kieran has been like a different person, not even having time to sleep every day, besides training Pokémon, he's battling……"

"That kid has become very powerful now, even defeating the school's strongest, Drayton. Maybe he's too busy…… No, I just think he might be in a rebellious phase."

Did Ogerpon going with Kieran deal such a blow to his heart?

Nemona and the others didn't know about the agreement, and seeing Kieran walk downstairs with a normal expression back then, they only thought the counseling had been successful.

Kieran said: "Let's talk when we meet later."

He was also very curious about Kieran's changes now, compressing sleep time to cultivate Pokémon?

He must have become very strong!

The group prepared to walk into the school.

Just at this moment, Cyrano suddenly covered his mouth with both hands, looking a bit surprised.

"Nemona!"

"What's wrong?"

When Nemona and the others cast suspicious glances.

She said a bit embarrassedly: "I suddenly remembered that I met her before……"

"Met?"

Nemona was full of confusion, gazing at Cyrano's face, and after a long time, she seemed to realize something: "Katy's…… daughter?"

Cyrano laughed: "Yes, we met once at a party. At that time, Nemona was clearly wearing a dress, but she kept wanting to battle my dad, which scared everyone!"

As expected of you!

Kieran and the others looked at Nemona with emotion.

Although they didn't know what specific party it was, being able to let the Student Council President wear a dress meant it must have been very formal.

Being able to openly find someone else's father to battle on such an occasion……

Perhaps only in the Pokémon world would such a scene appear?

Facing everyone's gaze, Nemona wasn't embarrassed at all and laughed: "Sorry~! I heard he was a Gym Leader, so I couldn't help it~"

"But my dad praised you~"

Cyrano said with a smile: "He said 'That young lady is free-spirited, quite good!'"

Nemona chuckled: "Thanks for the praise~ I also think Katy is quite good~"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Carmine ignored their exchange and said to Kieran with a smile:

"Long time no see, Champion, welcome to visit. These days I've been going to various regions with Ms. Briar to do surveys, and I've become stronger than before!"

She covered her mouth with both hands, giggling like a Zoroark.

But soon, Carmine straightened her expression: "Ms. Briar sent me to receive you, so your trip to Blueberry Academy will be my responsibility!"

"Wait!"

Hearing this, Cyrano immediately stopped her: "Guiding exchange students is a task thrown to me by Director Cyrano——"

Carmine retorted: "Kieran is not an exchange student, he is a regional Champion invited by Ms. Briar to visit Blueberry Academy!"

"Eh?"

Cyrano looked at Kieran in surprise, and seeing him nod, said regretfully: "So he didn't come as an exchange student? I remember you were clearly a student at Naranja Academy……"

And he was hanging out with the students.

Kieran said: "I've already dropped out, but it doesn't matter, let's just act together."

He said, throwing out a Poké Ball.

Bang!

Mawile landed. "Maw?"

Why did you suddenly call me out? To battle?

"Ya!"

Cyrano happily leaned forward, half-squatting with her hands on her chin, and lowered her voice: "So cute~ Finally met~ I'm your fan~"

So it's a fan!

Mawile looked at the pink-haired girl in front of it and immediately showed a professional smile, bowing elegantly. "Maw~"

"Hmm~ so fragrant~"

Cyrano was in close contact with Mawile, sighing that she really hadn't picked the wrong Pokémon to be a fan of.

So clean! So cute! And fragrant!

Cyrano had a bit of a clean freak, bathing her Pokémon three times a day to ensure their cleanliness.

Carmine couldn't wait: "Let's go in quickly! The Terarium is very interesting!"

Hearing this, Cyrano didn't waste any more time, getting up reluctantly and saying: "Everyone, please follow me~"

——

Terarium.

At the end of the long tunnel, everyone saw this giant ecological park.

At the end of their line of sight, they could see blue skies and white clouds, as if boundless. Only by looking closely could they realize that the clouds in the far distance were just patterns reflected on the glass.

But even so, the Terarium still looked boundless.

"So big!"

Drayton made an exclamation.

The scale of the Terarium undoubtedly exceeded his expectations.

Cyrano said: "The school invested a huge amount of money to build this! Look up!"

Everyone looked up, suddenly seeing a round ball composed of countless hexagonal crystal walls, inside which fluorescent green liquid swayed slightly.

"This is the Terarium Core, the liquid inside incorporates substances collected from Paldea, because it will radiate Terastal energy, so the Terastal elements inside the dome are very active!"

Cyrano's words entered his ears.

Kieran looked up, and a feeling inevitably arose in his heart——

I want it!

I want to get one for his school too!

But it's probably not very likely.

This kind of technology clearly didn't belong to the type that could be shared with outsiders—should I ask Ms. Briar later?

The Rotom Phone saw the Trainer eager to try and whispered: "Should I go steal……"

"Do you want me to get caught?"

Kieran looked at it speechlessly.

Porygon2 used to be a Pokémon that paid great attention to laws and regulations!

Even when invading street cameras, it would be worried and afraid.

To think it was now asking him if he wanted to steal information.

Who did it learn from!

It must have been done by the first unit! That guy loves stealing things the most!

He glared at Porygon2 quietly, and Porygon2 had to pretend it hadn't said that, displaying a zipper on the screen to indicate it was shutting up.

Ding-dong~

A broadcast sound came from the rear passage.

"Students preparing for class, please gather at the Coastal Area."

"Time for class~"

Cyrano looked at Kieran, suddenly remembering he wasn't a student, so she looked at Nemona and the others. "Let's go quickly?"

Nemona and the other two also cast their gazes at Kieran.

He said: "You go to class first, I'll go around with Carmine."

"Leave it to me!"

Carmine said with a smile.

She didn't like acting as a group, it was best to walk around privately with Kieran.

The two groups separated.

After all, what student doesn't have classes?

Kieran was also very glad that he didn't continue to visit Blueberry Academy as a student.

He looked around and asked: "Where is Ms. Briar?"

Carmine replied: "She hasn't come back yet, is something the matter?"

"Not back…… then how do you change the Terastal type of Pokémon here?"

Kieran got straight to the point.

He couldn't stay at Blueberry Academy for too long, if changing the type took a long time, then the sooner the better.

Carmine said: "This technology is also presided over by Ms. Briar, you have to wait for her to come back."

"Then when will she be back?"

"Probably tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow, huh……"

Kieran and Carmine walked aimlessly in the Savanna Area, and soon saw Blueberry Academy students catching Pokémon.

He raised an eyebrow and said: "Are the Pokémon here all wild?"

"Can't count as wild, they are sent in after breeding, or bred in the Terarium itself."

Carmine explained: "In this way, new students don't have to leave the campus to cultivate the Pokémon they need."

Really once and for all.

Although Kieran knew about academic Trainers, he hadn't simulated them any less.

But seeing this policy purely for cultivating competitive Trainers, his heart was quite complicated.

Is the strange "tradition" of Blueberry Academy influenced by this?

Perhaps it is, perhaps it isn't.

Kieran came this time with a total of three goals—changing the Terastal type, discovering the source of the school spirit, and completing the agreement with Kieran.

Changing the Terastal type is for the upcoming Masters Eight tournament.

Figuring out the source of the school spirit is to avoid similar trends in the school when he becomes a principal in the future.

Needless to say about the agreement, keeping promises is the first element of a Champion.

He said: "Take me to find Kieran."

Although he didn't know if Kieran knew he had come to Blueberry Academy, finding him would be the end of it.

Carmine nodded hurriedly. "Okay, okay!"

She wanted to walk privately with Kieran, precisely to seek the latter's help.

Kieran's changes left her helpless; her younger brother was no longer the existence that let her manipulate him as before.

However, intuition told Carmine that Kieran now was very strange.

Perhaps Kieran could counsel her younger brother like before.

The two continued to walk toward the inside of the Terarium.

In the far distance.

Inside a platform built like countless building blocks, the lazy white-haired boy caught sight of the two out of the corner of his eye.

"Hmm? Who are they?"

He sat up, raised his hand to block the sun, squinted his eyes, and showed an interested expression. "Yo! Champion Kieran is here!"

The boy leaped down from the platform and approached them in three steps.

Before long, the two sides were not far apart.

Seeing the boy, Carmine said like facing a great enemy: "Drayton! What do you want to do?"

"Don't be so nervous, I just came over to say hello."

Former Blueberry Academy Champion Drayton rubbed his hair, looked at Kieran with a smile, and raised his hand: "Yo! Champion, hello! How come I don't see your Long Wang?"

Kieran looked at the other party, his mind overlapping with a certain image. "Is Drayden?"

"My grandfather."

Drayton put his hands behind his head and said with a smile: "Iris mentions you every day, hearing a hundred times is not as good as seeing once!"

Carmine was stunned. "You know each other?"

Kieran said: "I have met his grandfather, Drayden Gym Leader, several times, and I am good friends with his grandfather's disciple, Iris."

"Hehe!"

Drayton laughed heartily. "Champion, are you here to visit?"

"Something like that."

He nodded and asked: "Iris has now become the Champion of the Unova region, so the next Gym Leader of the Opelucid Gym should be you, right?"

"No."

Drayton waved his hand and said: "I wouldn't do such a troublesome thing, and grandfather wouldn't consider me~"

Grandfather doesn't choose his grandson to inherit the Gym?

Really strange.

Kieran looked at his listless appearance, finding it hard to connect him with that hard-line old man.

That is, the two were extremely similar in appearance and hair color, which could confirm that their blood relationship was correct.

Seeing that Kieran was familiar with Drayton's elders, Carmine couldn't say bad things about him anymore, but it could be seen that she had a great prejudice against him.

Drayton said: "Where are you two going?"

Carmine: "With——"

"League Club, that should have been your territory originally." Kieran waved his hand, interrupting her speech.

"Skill is not as good as others, no way."

Drayton didn't seem to care at all and laughed: "But why are you going to the League Club? Do you want to join our club?"

Kieran: "We are looking for Kieran."

"Him? He probably won't come to the club activity room for the time being."

Drayton said with a smile: "Do you want me to take you to find him? Why not go to the League Club activity room first? Maybe someone there knows."

Kieran agreed.

Carmine was unwilling, but had to follow.

Halfway, Drayton deliberately teased Carmine, indicating that as a member of the League Club, she hadn't entered the ranking for a long time.

Carmine was like a cat with its fur standing up, indicating that she was just active with Ms. Briar, and was too busy to have time for ranking battles.

Her strength is not weak!

Eager to prove herself, she almost wanted to challenge Drayton.

Unfortunately, the League Club activity room arrived soon, and she gave up the reckless behavior.

Inside the activity room, several students were surrounding a sobbing girl.

"What's wrong?"

Drayton asked with a light tone.

Someone said: "Club—Drayton, Berry was expelled by the President, the reason is that the competitive Pokémon she holds are not enough."
