Chapter 225

Beside the campfire.

May held a towel, carefully wiping the water droplets from Ash's body.

And as May's gentle movements continued, the fire that had been burning within Ash's body was gradually extinguished.

Literally cooling his temper.

"Ash, you went a bit too far this time."

"It's not my fault, it said Pikachu abandoned me on purpose."

"That's also because you said some very harsh things to Lucario."

May gently stroked Ash.

"Lucario is already pitiful enough; everything it was familiar with has become history after sleeping for thousands of years, and even the truth it saw might not necessarily be real."

"Because of these things, Lucario has developed some doubts about the bond between humans and Pokémon."

Of course, I'm not saying it's all Ash's fault~

Lucario definitely has its faults too. Ash, we have all seen the bond between you and Pikachu.

We all know that neither you nor Pikachu would ever abandon the other.

But Lucario doesn't understand that. Because of that incident in the past, Lucario has doubts about the relationship between humans and Pokémon, which is why it said those things.

Think about it, if you were Lucario. If Pikachu said it abandoned you and sealed you away, and then told you that everything was fake, what would you think?"

After listening to May's words.

Ash actually fell into deep thought.

If I really were in that position.

"I would absolutely go crazy."

Ash murmured, gazing at the bright moon in the sky.

At this moment, Ash seemed to truly understand Lucario.

"So, Ash, when you meet later, you must communicate well with Lucario~ You will definitely become good friends."

"Yeah... I will."

【Norman: As expected of my daughter, she is truly so understanding!】

【Delia: That's right, May is very suitable to be a wife~】

Seeing May's performance, Delia became even more convinced of the comments mentioned in the manual rewarded by the system.

Gentle, virtuous, and understanding.

This description is indeed very accurate!

……

In the scene—

Lucario leaned against a large tree, looking up at the starry sky, which was no different from a thousand years ago.

Perhaps at this moment a thousand years ago, Aaron was also gazing at the same night sky.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

At this time, a figure gradually walked into the scene.

This person was dressed in green and wore a pair of blue glasses.

He was none other than May's younger brother, Max.

Max walked up to Lucario.

And Lucario glanced at Max but didn't say much.

Lucario's impression of this kid was alright.

Seeing Lucario's gaze, Max mysteriously took something out from behind his back.

"Lucario, you haven't eaten this before, right!"

'What?'

"This is chocolate! They say that when people are in a bad mood, eating something sweet makes them feel better!"

Saying this, Max broke off a large piece of the chocolate in his hand and handed it to Lucario.

"Here, have a taste."

Lucario didn't refuse.

It reached out to take the chocolate from Max's hand, sniffed it, and then ate it directly.

Perhaps it was Max's words, or perhaps it was the sweetness of the chocolate.

Lucario actually revealed a faint smile.

Its originally anxious heart gradually settled down.

【Jessie: Stop, dogs and cats cannot eat chocolate!】

【James: That's right! When my family was raising a Growlithe, it accidentally ate a piece of chocolate, and if it hadn't been for timely emergency treatment, it would have almost died!】

【Ash: Ah! There's such a thing!】

【Brock: Yes, although Pokémon are magical creatures, they retain some animal characteristics to a certain extent, like the fact that dogs cannot eat chocolate. For dogs, chocolate is highly toxic!】

【Misty: Why does it feel like you aren't worried about Lucario at all, Brock?】

【Brock: Because although Lucario is a dog, Lucario has the Steel type, and the Steel type is immune to poison.】

【Ash: Brock! As expected of you!】

【Brock: That's right, I am the man who is going to become the world's number one Pokémon Breeder! This is common knowledge!】

【Max: Phew! You scared me, I thought something was going to happen!】

Guandong, Silver Town.

Jessie and James looked at each other.

They... seemed to have embarrassed themselves.

"James, it's all your fault."

"Exactly, you made us lose face for Team Rocket again, Meowth."

"We're done for! Our year-end bonus!"

"Wasn't it already cancelled, Meowth?"

"Oh right! Then let's find a way to catch Pikachu, that way our year-end bonus will be secured!"

"Maybe we can even get a promotion and a raise!"

"Become an executive!"

"What a great feeling! Meowth!"

【Professor Oak: Hiss, there's such a trick, I must research this another day.】

【Delia: Both of Norman's children are very excellent. May will be a virtuous wife in the future, and Max is so understanding, he will definitely become a qualified husband.】

【Norman: Hehe, these two children are my heart and soul! And their excellence is because of themselves; May and Max have always been like this! They live to be themselves, not to strive to be someone else's wife or husband.】

【Delia: I'm sorry, I didn't consider that properly.】

【Giovanni: I envy such children.】

Thinking of Silver, Giovanni only felt a headache.

This kid goes against his old man all day long!

……

In the scene—

Through the efforts of May and Max, Ash and Lucario let go of their grudges against each other.

Of course, wanting to reconcile immediately was clearly unrealistic.

But at least the atmosphere wouldn't be so oppressive when they were together.

Meanwhile.

Pikachu and Mew, who had been playing in the Tree of Beginning all day, also collapsed from exhaustion.

Pikachu missed Ash a little.

Mew noticed Pikachu's thoughts and kept taking toys from its collection for Pikachu to play with.

But Pikachu had lost interest.
