Chapter 996: How to make up after a cold war?
In Villa No. 15, in a clean "sickroom," a Pokémon whose size looked a size larger than the black-red tiger sleeping on the hospital bed, and whose whole body shimmered with a charming pink halo under the sunlight, was calmly peeling a bunny-shaped apple.
Diancie glanced at Incineroar, who was still sleeping, sighed, dispersed the Diamond Storm it was using to peel the apple, and added another layer of quilt to it.
The weather is so cold, the Big Tiger who is still in a coma will definitely catch a cold, right?
Nowadays, Diancie was in no mood to watch anime or catch up on shows.
Ever since that battle that broke its limits, Incineroar had fallen into a coma. This coma had lasted for three days.
Gliscor's trainer had long since sent the antidote for Gliscor's toxin, and Incineroar's external injuries had long since healed under Su Hao's Life Dew.
Finally, after Su Hao's Aura investigation, a conclusion was reached.
Incineroar had no internal or external injuries; it was just that in the battle to break through itself, it had forcibly activated Perpetual Enhancement and Darkest Lariat in a state of serious injury. Under the effect of dual pressure, its mental power was over-consumed, and it needed to sleep for a period of time to recuperate.
Thinking of Su Hao, a mixed feeling welled up in Diancie's heart.
In fact, it also knew very well that Su Hao was absolutely sincerely thinking of Incineroar. Even for this adventurous battle, Su Hao had only started the plan after making full preparations.
The plan had also gone very smoothly. Incineroar, who had always been lagging behind its partners for various reasons, had completed a transformation. Not only had it promoted to Gym-level, but even its Darkest Lariat would probably get a stronger qualitative change after it woke up, right?
Diancie knew very well that it was being unreasonable and throwing a tantrum, and Su Hao was the most innocent person.
Ever since it stopped Su Hao from approaching this room, for the past few days, a tonic that looked like it was personally brewed by Su Hao would be placed outside the door on time every day, containing medicinal herbs that could gently repair Incineroar's mental power.
Even if it just took a sniff, it could feel a refreshing and invigorating sensation.
After a few days, no matter how big the anger was, it had dissipated, not to mention that Diancie knew it was in the wrong to begin with.
But, because it was the first time it had thrown a tantrum, Diancie found that it actually didn't know how to lower its stance to make up, and could only remain in this stalemate.
Thinking of this, Diancie sighed heavily again.
"Fu-wu~"
Suddenly, a beautiful hum sounded from outside the window, followed by the sound of a tail knocking on the window.
Diancie looked up and discovered that it was Milotic and the others who had just gone out not long ago returning.
Several flying Pokémon were behind Milotic, seemingly wanting to enter the room. A trace of doubt flashed in Diancie's eyes. According to the usual time, Milotic and the others would practice until evening before coming back to eat after going out, why were they so early today?
Without thinking too much, a purple light flashed in Diancie's pink eyes, and its mental power, which was no less than that of a Psychic-type Pokémon, surged out as telekinesis, instantly unlocking the window.
Diancie's unlocking meant it allowed Milotic and the others to enter this room.
In an instant, Lucario's figure appeared directly in the room, Dragapult also floated up to the real world through the Distortion World, and Milotic and Metagross also flew in one after another from outside the window.
Looking closely, Leafeon and Cyclizar were also sitting on Metagross.
Only Hisuian Braviary tried for a long time, only to find that even if it retracted its wings and used psychic power to lift itself to stuff into the window, its massive boss-level size wouldn't fit.
It could only run to the nearest tree in a dejected mood to sulk.
After entering the room, several Pokémon cast concerned gazes at Incineroar, and after finding that it still showed no signs of waking up, their expressions became visibly disappointed.
As the last Pokémon to join the team, Cyclizar's feelings for Incineroar hadn't reached the point of sadness. It felt the atmosphere was a bit dull, tilted its head to look at Incineroar, and there was a trace of imperceptible confusion in Cyclizar's eyes.
The weak being defeated by the strong is the most real theorem in the world, what is there to be sad about?
To win and end up in such a miserable
state, this is the most worthless approach.
Cyclizar also saw the match that day in the Luxury Ball. It thought that Incineroar should have pretended to be defeated and let Diancie reap the victory.
Then practice until its strength was several times stronger than the opponent's, and then go back to get its revenge in a dignified manner.
A dragon taking revenge, ten years is not too late.
The same goes for a fierce tiger.
If it really couldn't take revenge, Cyclizar felt that, for the sake of the cook-wife of the mountain stronghold, once it regained its power and turned back into the Koraidon main body, it could mercifully take Incineroar to take revenge.
As one of the only two female Pokémon in the team besides little Dreepy, Milotic first pressed its forehead against Diancie's for a while, constantly comforting Diancie in a low voice, telling it not to worry too much about Incineroar.
Incineroar is one of the toughest in the team, it will wake up after a little rest.
Seeing that Milotic and the others were all there, Diancie found that it didn't see Su Hao's figure, and even its mental power didn't detect his existence.
Now, isn't this the opportunity to seek help?
A rare blush appeared on Diancie's cheeks, and it was a bit fidgety, not knowing whether to say it or not.
Although Milotic looked calm, it let out a sharp screech in its heart.
So cute, so cute, so cute—!
Big Sister Diancie's shy look is so cute—!
Dragapult and Metagross, the two blockheads, couldn't read the air at all and even wanted to mock Big Sister Diancie for actually blushing! As a result, before they could speak, they were scared back by the astonishing killing intent Milotic directed only at them.
Lucario and Leafeon didn't sympathize with the fate of these two guys. As canine Pokémon, they just shook their heads, and their actions had already said everything.
Finally, after Milotic's very measured encouragement, Diancie finally opened its mouth with a blushing face to seek their help.
"I'm struggling... how to make up with Su Hao."
Diancie played with its fingers, its voice as thin as a mosquito's. After speaking, as if it couldn't bear the shame, it covered its cheeks directly.
Unfortunately, the only fly in the ointment was this obstructive Overlord Aura, which forcibly destroyed Diancie's shy, bird-like demeanor and actions.
At least whether it was Dragapult or Metagross, they both felt that the Big Sister, who was usually full of majesty, was acting shy while being larger than them, and the disconnect was truly too severe.
A look of surprise flashed in Milotic's eyes. It didn't expect that after Su Hao asked them to probe Diancie's tone, Diancie also wanted to learn from them how to make up with Su Hao.
This is really... even it didn't know what to say.
