Chapter 44
Undesirable Frog Habits and Wei Xin's Ideal Life
After realizing the truth (which wasn't true), he wore an expression as if he had just eaten a giant intestine.
Li Wei handed the stinky tofu to Wei Xin, grabbed Yue Hai, and prepared to challenge the stinky tofu owner to a life-or-death duel.
"What's wrong with your friend?" Although she was curious about what Wei Xin and his classmate had been discussing, Mary didn't ask out of respect.
"It's nothing, would you like some stinky tofu?" Wei Xin handed the stinky tofu in his hand to Mary.
"Huh, is this thing really edible?"
The object in Wei Xin's hand emitted a pungent odor. Although Mary felt that Wei Xin wouldn't cheat her, her psychological resistance still made her choose to refuse.
"Where are Ralts and Morpeko?"
"Ralu!" Ralulas pinched her nose and urged Wei Xin to quickly throw away what she was holding.
If you dare put this in your mouth, you'll have to brush your teeth at least three times before bed tonight.
As for Morubek, because of his keen sense of smell, he had already fainted in Mary's arms.
Just as he was hesitating whether this behavior counted as wasting food, the scoundrel jumped out of Marie's Poké Ball, its eyes fixed on the stinky tofu in Wei Xin's hand.
"Do you want some?" Wei Xin forked a piece of stinky tofu, bent down, and offered it to the stinky frog's mouth.
The wicked frog looked up at Wei Xin, its cheeks turning pink. It opened its mouth, took a bite, and after chewing, a joyful expression appeared on its face for the first time.
We've found something that the naughty frog is interested in.
Wei Xin happily stuffed the remaining stinky tofu into the stinky frog's mouth, thinking that since the stinky frog had such a unique taste, he would take her to try snail rice noodles and durian when he had the chance.
"Does that naughty frog have a crush on you? Look, her cheeks are all red."
Mary joked, then, recalling how the naughty frog had behaved in her hands, she suddenly felt a little disappointed.
Why won't she listen to me?
"No, that's not it?" Wei Xin said innocently. "Bad Frog is indeed interested in me, but it's probably not the kind you're thinking of, Mary."
"Hmm?" Mary crossed her arms and tilted her head in confusion, along with Morbeco, who was standing on top of her.
"Creeping Frog is a Poison-type Pokémon that likes to attack its opponents when they are scared and exposed. Therefore, it is interested in those who are always vigilant and have almost no weaknesses."
"However, it wasn't pure liking, but rather waiting for the prey to reveal a weakness."
In the Pokémon anime, Golem is known as a flawless, perfect man with an iron will, which is why he attracted the attention of Delinquent.
When Gangye encounters a beautiful older sister, he will reveal his only weakness, which is why the Bad Frog likes to launch an attack at this time.
"As for blushing, it's just the shame of a child being caught playing a prank," Wei Xin said.
Just like Gang's rascal, when it tries to attack, it will just chuckle and silently back down after being discovered by Cynthia.
"There's actually such a saying? Then why doesn't the naughty frog listen to me?" Mary asked.
"Because Mary is usually quite relaxed, although I think it's cute, but for the bad frog, Mary in this state is not worth paying attention to," Wei Xin said.
"But in actual battles, Crazyfrog should never have made a mistake. That time on stage doesn't count; that was Crazyfrog trying to create an opportunity for Ralts."
As for why the delinquent frog would help Ralts, perhaps it's just because it thinks Ralts has potential and can be used to get beaten up after being trained.
"Is that so?" Mary looked down and asked the rascal frog, whose mouth was dripping with oil. In her memory, the rascal frog had never had a mishap in battles.
Also, did he just say I was cute? Although it's true.
The rascal's pupils shifted slightly as it glanced at its trainer out of the corner of its eye, then curled its lip in a smirk.
"Tsk."
Mary: "..."
[Actually, you just don't like me, right?]
After buying things at the supermarket, the group returned home. Wei Xin took Ralts' Poké Ball, and after pressing and holding the button, the red light on Ralts' body shattered, and the binding with the Poké Ball was broken.
Laltus stood in the living room, her feet pacing back and forth on the tiled floor, watching excitedly as Wei Xin pulled a deluxe ball from his bag.
Squatting down in front of her, as if smashing an egg, he gently tapped her head, and Ralts transformed into a beam of red light and entered it.
The button in the middle blinked twice perfunctorily and emitted a system sound indicating successful taming.
"Our baby has his own little villa now!" Wei Xin exclaimed.
There are many types of Poké Balls in the Pokémon world. Apart from the Souvenir Ball and the Rare Ball, which do not have special functions, the Dark Ball, Swift Ball, and Heal Ball have a catch rate that is far higher than that of ordinary Poké Balls under certain conditions.
Mary's hairy troll was captured using a dark orb.
In addition, certain special Pokémon, such as Ultra Beasts and Celebi, require special Poké Balls such as Ultra Balls and GS Balls.
However, Wei Xin was not clear about the principles and manufacturing methods of Poké Balls, and planned to learn about them when he had time in the future.
Wei Xin didn't disturb Ralts's enjoyment of his luxurious single residence. He hung the deluxe ball on his waist, went straight into the kitchen, and began preparing dinner for the day.
Mary released the hairy troll, Morbeco, and the bad frog, letting them roam freely.
Holding a dictionary, Mary sat in the living room. On the way back, Wei Xin corrected her language mistakes. When she realized that what she had said had not only embarrassed her but also ruined Wei Xin's reputation, she was filled with regret.
After much painful reflection, Mary decided to work hard to learn a foreign language.
The long-haired troll, carrying a bottle of Brimwyn conditioner, excitedly walked into the bathroom.
Contrary to their rugged appearance, hairy trolls are very conscious of the hair on their muscles and bodies.
Mischievous Frog, accompanied by Morpeko, took a brown fruit covered in spiky thorns from a plastic bag in the living room. To prevent the fruit's smell from affecting the others in the house, Mischievous Frog pushed open the door and went out into the yard.
Under Morubek's expectant gaze, he activated the tile-splitting technique, slashing down with his hand to split the durian in two, revealing its plump flesh.
"Mobe!" Morubek leaped up and impatiently jumped onto the durian.
Then, with a slight twitch of his nose, a pungent odor assaulted his senses. Before he could even utter a sound, Morubek's eyes rolled back, and he fell backward, rolling to the side with only two circles in his eyes.
Morbeco was unable to fight, and Durian got the MVP.
Raising his hand, as if hitting a golf ball, he swatted Morbeco to a safe distance. The scoundrel plucked a piece of durian, took a bite, and a joyful smile appeared on his face.
This is the life I've always dreamed of.
Wei Xin, busy in the kitchen, silently took in all of this through the window and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
After busying itself for a while, Ralts emerged from its luxury ball, stood on the kitchen table, and stretched.
"It actually came out by itself?" Wei Xin exclaimed in surprise. He had thought that after moving to a luxury residence, Ralts would stay inside the luxury sphere forever.
"Ralts!" Ralts jumped up, hugged Wei Xin's neck, and rubbed his cheek with the horn on its head.
Ralts is low on power and needs to be recharged by its trainer.
Just like a favorite toy in a store, the initial anticipation disappears the moment it leaves the shelf. Although the environment inside the Luxury Ball is indeed comfortable, Ralts has lost its novelty for it at this moment.
Trainers are the best; you can like them for a lifetime and never get tired of them.
After replenishing her trainer's energy, Ralts jumped to the ground, ran out of the kitchen, turned on the TV, and took out the game console.
Wei Xin's advice and her experience at the club's gate gave Laluras some inspiration, and she planned to strike while the iron was hot and annihilate the difficult AI.
As the moon rose, Mary, who had been struggling to digest the dictionary due to overworking, looked up in distress in the living room.
Wei Xin dragged Morubek out of the kitchen by the scruff of his neck as he tried to steal some ingredients.
The wicked frog, having eaten half a durian, stepped into the living room with a satisfied expression.
The cheers from the game suddenly echoed in the room. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw the word "victory" appear on the screen in front of Ralts.
On Ralts's panel, the indicator called "Combat Skills" has also improved from "Poor" to "Normal".
