Chapter 874

The air stopped circulating at this moment.

Calyrex's body was stiff.

It gazed deeply at All Baimu, who was standing at the door with the dining cart, and that phone next to him that was inexplicably making a clicking sound.

【Did the subject see it?】

All Baimu didn't change his expression: "I don't understand what you are talking about, Your Majesty, I am just calling you to enjoy the tribute."

Calyrex adjusted its gaze to look at the Poryphone: 【Then what is it doing?】

All Baimu responded with reason and evidence:

"Nothing, Your Majesty."

Poryphone silently hid that cute wake-up photo of the little deer-like creature in the deepest place, and imitated the Trainer's tone:

"Respected Calyrex, I am here to serve you together."

Really?

Calyrex looked at the two suspiciously.

However, its attention was soon attracted by the fragrance filling the room, and an unprecedented feeling prompted it to look at the cart.

Strange metal objects were placed on the cart.

The fragrance came from them.

【Tribute...】

Calyrex sniffed the tempting fragrance, and many memories surged layer by layer.

【Tribute】.

Whenever its gift brought a harvest to the world.

People would pick the freshest food and offer it to themselves as tribute.

After that, all kinds of tributes would be placed in front of it one after another throughout the year, with the largest quantity of food, and there would also be many novel things.

What is undeniable is.

Although it would also enjoy those fresh foods, it cared more about the meaning symbolized behind these things than the tribute itself—

【Faith】.

Faith continues, tribute continues.

Looking back now, the faith power it obtained decreased day by day, but the quality and quantity of the tribute never changed.

This is clearly problematic.

And it didn't take it seriously when it saw through this point at the time, instead feeling that since the tribute could still maintain quality and quantity, the lost faith would return sooner or later.

Until the day the Rusted Sword/Shield was replaced.

Sigh.

How arrogant...

Calyrex found that after it became weak, its perspective on things also became different, and many of its original practices made it regret it now.

At the same time.

All Baimu silently uncovered the lid of the dining plate, and the brilliant golden light instantly illuminated the entire room!

Accompanied by the rising white mist, the unrivaled fragrance made even Porygon2, who was currently in phone mode, unconsciously attracted.

Calyrex looked over as if it had the 【Keen Eye】 ability.

It said: 【Subject!】

"Rose-style cream stew. Please enjoy it as you wish, Your Majesty."

All Baimu said confidently.

【Cream Stew】.

A home-cooked delicacy that extremely fits the tastes of local species in Kalos and Galar, specially added with fresh cream produced by Alcremie, Moomoo Milk produced by the Kachi family, and fresh seasonal vegetables.

This is the best finished product after his careful consideration and repeated stewing according to the recipe given by the chef.

If borrowing the evaluation standard for curry rice in the Sword/Shield camping system, this portion of cream stew definitely belongs to the full-score Charizard level!

After tasting it, he even made the signature action of the connoisseur.

No one understands cream stew better than me. jpg

Glowing cuisine is invincible!

All Baimu looked at Calyrex, whose small black nose was twitching non-stop, and whose gaze was fixed on the cream stew, and felt half-relieved.

As he expected.

Perhaps the human civilization of the ancient era mastered some unimaginable power, but the food culture was definitely not as brilliant as it is now!

How can the ancient times, with single food types and lack of spices, compare to the present?

Suddenly.

He added: "You can use a fork to pick up the vegetables inside, or use a soup spoon to scoop the soup."

Although the possibility was very small, he was still worried that Calyrex would suddenly lower its head and eat like an ordinary deer.

Shouldn't be, right?

As a Psychic-type Pokémon, using intent to lift food to its mouth is a basic operation.

【...】

Calyrex didn't react to All Baimu's words, just staring at the cream stew.

For the first time.

It felt a desire for the tribute itself for the first time, so strong that it briefly forgot about its important beloved horses.

Food...

How could it be so tempting?

Calyrex was speechless, and after a few seconds, under the confused gaze of All Baimu and Poryphone, it resisted its own desire.

It said: 【I haven't given you a gift yet, subject, how can I accept your tribute?】

Although it couldn't say why, instinct prevented it from doing so, some memories were too long ago, and it couldn't remember them for a while.

This!

All Baimu never expected that Calyrex was the type who wouldn't accept unless it gave first.

Sure enough, this king is different from human kings.

If it were a human king, he would probably take him as a subordinate as a matter of course, but Calyrex was still thinking about the "gift" it hadn't given him yet.

He said: "Your Majesty's existence is the gift to me, please don't care so much, enjoy it to your heart's content!"

All Baimu was still counting on conquering Calyrex's stomach first, and then slowly conquering its heart.

How can it not eat!

However.

Calyrex was very dissatisfied with this statement.

【Are you fooling me?】

It flew to a position level with All Baimu's gaze very seriously, a layer of thin blue light attached to its body, and it didn't even call him subject anymore.

"Your Majesty is overthinking."

All Baimu's expression remained the same, explaining: "I just feel that Your Majesty has just woken up, the top priority is to rest peacefully. As for the 'gift', you can consider it later, no need to be in a hurry."

He paused, and said before the other party opened its mouth: "Besides, you are the only believer in this world, Your Majesty, and the only way to recover is to find your beloved horse, but without the Rusted Sword/Shield, how can you tame them?

"Isn't the Rusted Sword/Shield also a tribute offered? I personally think that since they are all tributes, why care about this one or two."

Calyrex froze.

Because it found that the believer in front of it made so much sense! It couldn't refute it at all!

【I...】

"Your Majesty, cold cream stew will taste worse."

【But...】

"Your Majesty, this is my heart, do you want to disappoint your only believer?"

【But...】

"Your Majesty—"

【I will eat it! You stubborn person!】

Calyrex broke its defense, its two eyeballs widened, and its body couldn't stop trembling.

Then.

It angrily picked up the spoon, scooped up a piece of mushy carrot, and stuffed it into its mouth, chewing wildly, only to become more silent as it chewed.

Smells fragrant, tastes even better.

Calyrex couldn't find a reason to be angry anymore, it just wanted to eat another bite now.

Seeing that its eyebrows were tending toward Chopper from One Piece who was praised, All Baimu bowed satisfiedly and said: "Then I won't disturb Your Majesty's meal, if you need to fill it up, please shake the silver bell beside you."

After saying that.

He and Poryphone left the master bedroom.

Calyrex didn't even lift its eyelids, it had completely turned into the shape of cream stew, captured by that wonderful taste it had never experienced before.

Felt the emotion called "satisfaction" for the first time.

While eating.

More memories surged up.

It suddenly remembered the reason why it didn't accept tribute just now, and thought of that familiar face.

"Are you cold? Come in quickly!"

"This winter is too hard to endure, the things at home are all eaten up, Dad and Mom are asleep."

"My last ration, I'll give you half, I'm going to sleep after eating!"

"I heard from the village chief that there is a magical magic beast on the high mountain, as long as you offer tribute, it can conjure countless food for you!"

"I really only have that little bit, if you are still hungry, eat me after I fall asleep."

"Woo woo woo... Dad... Mom..."

The memory froze on that face that was frozen purple, with ice crystals in the corners of its eyes.

Calyrex subconsciously sent the spoon to its mouth, but didn't eat anything.

It lowered its head slightly.

Found that it had eaten the cream stew in front of it clean without knowing it.

Thus.

It shook the silver bell.

All Baimu quickly pushed the door and entered, "Are you calling me, Your Majesty?"

【I, want another bowl.】

Calyrex said softly.

The expression was completely different from what he guessed outside the door, it felt like it had eaten until it was sad.

Very strange.

But judging from Calyrex's idea of adding dishes, it should be quite satisfied.

"Please wait a moment."

All Baimu pushed the dining cart away.

Soon arriving at the kitchen in the mansion, Happiness was wearing a chef's hat and exchanging cooking tips with the female Indeedee, both of whom had provided great help in the cream stew.

Seeing his figure, the two Pokémon hurriedly gathered around.

"happy?"

"Indeed~"

All Baimu reached out to stroke the two Pokémon, and said warmly: "Have you all eaten... it's good that you have eaten. Thank you for your hard work."

Happiness and Indeedee showed happy smiles.

Because he had to take care of Calyrex, the meals for Aggron and the others could only be delivered by Happiness and the female Indeedee after he matched them.

This made him a bit worried about whether the few most mischievous ones had eaten well.

Fortunately, the Pokémon behaved relatively well when he was doing business, and the younger Dreepy was also managed by the older Dreepy.

Including Hydreigon and Mawile, after going out to buy groceries with him, they all became "reasonable."

All Baimu was able to put more energy into tricking... cough, gaining Calyrex's favor.

Not to mention anything else.

Fooling this guy to Orre is definitely the most basic.

"Three meals a day, it will definitely work in a week!" He believed in his craftsmanship very much, even if the object was a legendary Pokémon with very little demand for food.

You know, even the Shiny Rayquaza couldn't help but be conquered by his craftsmanship.

Not to mention Calyrex?

【Chef】 is truly the most valuable simulation story he has ever experienced!

——

After lunch.

Calyrex became sleepy again.

The long slumber seemed to make it very difficult to stay awake for a long time, leaving a sentence:

【I will definitely give you a 'gift'.】

It lay on the bed and fell into a coma.

All Baimu took the opportunity to look at Calyrex's sleeping posture, and was surprised to find that the bud on its head was as soft as a flower bud, and would not make it uncomfortable when lying on its side.

What a wonderful structure!

He had Poryphone take a few photos, just in case there would be no chance in the future.

The afternoon time was very free.

All Baimu contacted Raihan, asking him if he could borrow the arena; he had forgotten about this because he was too concerned about Calyrex in the morning.

No reply received.

He wasn't in a hurry either, looked around at his own Pokémon, seeing that they were either playing or training autonomously, all had things to do, so he found Regirock who was teasing the Rookidee in the woods.

Truly, you can't judge a Pokémon by its appearance.

A trace of leisure actually faintly appeared on the body of the rock giant.

"Regirock!"

All Baimu broke this beautiful picture, causing the Rookidee to be startled, and they hurriedly looked back at him before landing again.

Galar's birds are not afraid of people.

He said to Regirock, who turned over: "I want to talk to Regieleki and Regidrago, can you do me this favor?"

"Buzz, buzz, buzz—"

Poryphone: "It said yes, but one alone is not enough, it needs its two brothers together to be stable."

"Okay."

All Baimu immediately turned to find Lei Jiaisi and Registeel.

Who would have thought that he had only taken two steps when a gust of wind suddenly came from behind, his subconscious drove him to roll forward to dodge, and the content he caught in the corner of his eyes made him not do so.

Next moment.

A gentle force came from under him.

It was Regirock using its rock arm to lift him to the top of its head, preparing to give him a ride.

All Baimu said: "I thought you were going to sneak attack me!"

"Buzz, buzz, buzz—Regi~gi~rock~"

Regirock's response sounded like a big laugh, carrying him to the lakeside adjacent to the manor, and pointed to a corner of the emerald green big lake.

Lei Jiaisi and Registeel were half-submerged in the lake water, half-exposed, their bodies dim and lusterless.

Like two ancient statues.

Click.

Poryphone was very responsible and took a picture of this scene, saying: "Lei Jiaisi's freezing air can indeed be manipulated as it pleases."

Lei Jiaisi is said to be wrapped in a body of cold air of minus two hundred degrees.

It's unclear whether it's minus two hundred degrees.

But it can indeed instantly create a large glacier when it goes all out, and during the process of capturing it, it's not hard to see the traces of it freezing the seawater all the way while galloping.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz—"

Regirock's dot patterns flashed.

The two giants in the lake immediately reacted, the cross-shaped and diamond-shaped dot patterns lit up, slowly floating out of the water and letting the remaining lake water slide off their bodies.

"Gigi, gigi, gigi—Regi! Gi! Ay!"

"Doo, doo, doo—Regi! Gi! Sss!"

Poryphone translated: "They said it's best to find an open place, far away from buildings."

"Why assume they will definitely fight... alright, you are right."

All Baimu decided to go to the other side of the lake.

On the lush hills.

Considering that wild Trainers rarely appear in the surrounding area but not completely, he put on a windproof and dustproof veil.

Not long after.

He found a plain near the Wild Area.

The three tall giants startled many wild Pokémon.

All Baimu jumped off Regirock's head and said: "Since you are all worried about safety, let's just do it one by one."

He threw a Poké Ball forward.

Bang!

White light fell to the ground, outlining the huge dragon head shape.

As a "reborn" Dragon Tamer, there should be no problem taming this fake dragon.

"Rumble, rumble, rumble—Regi! Drago! Regi!"

Regidrago, which came out of the ball, looked around, neither finding its companion Regieleki nor seeing its enemy Calyrex.

It faced All Baimu, and the Y-shaped blue dot patterns on its face lit up together.

Poryphone said: "It said let it beat Calyrex up, and from now on it will voluntarily become your help."

"... Huh?"
