Gourmet master of the Pokemon world

#107 - Delicious mushroom soup hotpot

Leaving the riverbank, Anjay took Little Munchlax, Sobi, Diancie, Metagross, and Boltund to the fishing ground.

He wanted to check on the Minior Cod.

Along the way, Little Munchlax held Anjay's hand tightly, unwilling to let go, afraid that if he did, his master would run away.

His hands were dirty because he had just been working, but Anjay didn't mind and let him hold on.

Sobi excitedly told Anjay about the situation at home during this time, as well as his excellent performance in the Little Munchlax family.

Anjay listened quietly, occasionally adding a few earnest remarks. Receiving Anjay's affirmation, Sobi was immediately happy like a little bird, hopping and skipping ahead.

Seeing wildflowers blooming along the way, he would sprint over to pick one and give it to Anjay.

Soon Anjay and the others arrived at the fishing ground.

Because Poliwag, Poliwhirl, and Politoed had all gone to help plant trees, the fishing ground was very quiet at this time.

Anjay walked to the edge of the fishing ground and suddenly saw a purple-red blade breaking out of the calm lake surface, followed by a second, a third, a fourth... They moved quickly and approached the shore.

Seemingly frightened, the fish farmed in the fishing ground jumped out of the water one after another.

When the blades approached the shore, one Minior Cod after another surfaced. It turned out that they had sensed Anjay's arrival and had come to greet him.

Anjay looked at the Minior Cod leader and asked, "Are you helping Poliwag and the others guard the fishing ground?"

"Weiru ~"

The Minior Cod leader nodded.

Every time Poliwag and the others went to help plant trees, the Minior Cod would take care of the fishing ground for a while. Most of the other times, the Minior Cod would roam the vast Nibel Lake, swimming and competing to hone their skills and strengthen their spirits.

"Thank you for your hard work." Anjay patted the Minior Cod leader's head.

"Weiru ~ Weiru ~"

The Minior Cod leader shook his head, indicating that it was no trouble.

Anjay's eyes swept over the twenty or so Minior Cod, and after hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Have you... gained weight?"

The Minior Cod were stunned when they heard this. They looked at me, and I looked at you. They seemed... to have really... gained a lot of weight!

Realizing this problem, they panicked.

That shouldn't be! They work hard every day, not only honing their spirits but also their bodies. They had just handed over their excess fat to Diancie two days ago. How could they have gained weight again now?

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

At this time, Diancie said, "You eat too much every day! And according to the previous amount of exercise, it is far from enough."

At this time, Anjay seemed to see in Diancie the devil coach form that she only had in the cooking training room.

"Weiru ~ Weiru ~"

The Minior Cod deeply believed in Diancie's words and agreed to Diancie's proposal.

"Very good, then hand over your excess fat now," Diancie said again.

As Diancie's voice fell, the Minior Cod quickly shook their bodies one by one. The next second, pieces of snow-white fish fell on the shore.

Diancie calmly collected the fish one by one.

Anjay was dumbfounded.

"Diancie, why do I feel like you're a bit like a capitalist?"

Diancie slapped Anjay angrily when she heard this, "Don't talk nonsense. Isn't everything I do for the good of the Minior Cod?"

Anjay thought about it and it was true. Whether it was letting the Minior Cod strengthen their training or letting them get rid of excess fat, it was all beneficial to the Minior Cod.

But he always felt that something was strange.

Without thinking too much, Anjay's eyes fell on the Minior Cod group, but he saw Magikarp, Feebas, Goldeen, and Seaking mixed in among them.

Anjay asked with a smile, "Why are you with the Minior Cod?"

Magikarp and Feebas were dazed and did not answer Anjay, just quietly spitting bubbles there.

At this time, a Seaking swam forward and replied:

"Mao ~ Mao ~" Training! Training! Together!

Anjay instantly understood what it meant, so he praised, "Not bad, ambitious, keep up the good work."

Encouraged by Anjay's praise, Goldeen and Seaking swam around happily, and even Magikarp and Feebas had a slight reaction.

The Minior Cod looked disdainful when they saw this.

The Minior Cod leader said, "Weiru ~ Weiru ~" They are too weak!

Anjay put his hands together and said, "Minior Cod, please take them to train together!" It was rare that even Magikarp and Feebas had motivation, and Anjay didn't want to let their expectations fall through.

Anjay had already said so, and the Minior Cod leader reluctantly agreed, "Weiru ~" Alright!

After chatting with the Minior Cod for a while about their recent lives, Anjay said, "Okay, you guys continue to train!"

The Minior Cod nodded when they heard this, and then one after another dived into the water, followed by Magikarp, Feebas, Goldeen, and Seaking.

Watching the Minior Cod disappear on the surface of the water, Anjay said to Diancie and the others, "Let's go home, go back early to prepare, and have a big meal tonight."

"Gang ~ ~"

"Ji mie ~"

"Bu ~"

Hearing this, Little Munchlax, Sobi, and Boltund took the lead in running home.

Anjay and Diancie and Metagross walked slowly home.

As the sun set, accompanied by the brilliant sunset glow in the sky, Anjay and Diancie strolled on the grass. The glow reflected on their faces, adding a soft color to their expressions. Anjay and Diancie couldn't help but immerse themselves in this peaceful and quiet time.

Halfway there, Anjay and Diancie saw two Charcadet each riding a Lechonk back. They were chasing each other, as if playing some game, and their intertwined laughter echoed on the grassland.

"Charcadet! Lechonk!" Anjay waved to the four Pokémon from afar.

Hearing Anjay's call, the two Lechonk immediately carried the Charcadet and ran excitedly towards Anjay.

"Keng keng ~"

"Keng keng ~"

When the four Pokémon approached, Anjay noticed that each of the two Charcadet had a package on their back that was bigger than their body.

Not only that, but the four Pokémon were also dirty, as if they had rolled in a garbage dump.

"Where have you been?" Anjay asked in confusion, "I heard Diancie say that you have been going out early and returning late every day recently. What have you been doing?"

Hearing Anjay's question, the two Lechonk proudly puffed out their chests, with expressions of pride on their faces.

However, the female Lechonk's puffing out caused the Cryogonal Charcadet sitting on her back to fall off, and the package on its back also scattered.

Cryogonal pouted, and tears began to well up in its eyes.

The obedient Charcadet saw this and quickly got off the male Lechonk with the package on its back and ran to Cryogonal's side.

"Chaka ~ Chaka ~"

The obedient Charcadet hugged the Cryogonal Charcadet and gently patted its back, and the Cryogonal Charcadet finally held back its tears.

Anjay, however, was stunned by the bundles scattered by the crybaby Charcadet, which were filled with all kinds of mushrooms.

"Did you guys pick all of these?" Anjay squatted down and picked up a mushroom, asking.

"Kou Kou ~"

"Kou Kou ~"

The two Lechonk nodded repeatedly.

The Lechonk's keen sense of smell could easily identify which ingredients were edible and which were not, so the mushrooms they collected were safe to eat, without worrying about 'lying down'.

"Could it be that you've been busy with this lately, going out early and returning late?" Anjay asked in surprise.

"Kou Kou ~"

"Kou Kou ~"

"Chaka ~"

"Chaka ~"

All four Pokémon nodded at the same time.

After coming to the Nibel Plateau, the four Pokémon realized that everyone here had their own duties and could help Anjay with various things, but it seemed like they couldn't do anything.

When Charcadet was in Area Zero, it could help Anjay cook, but when they arrived at the Nibel Plateau, Anjay's house had all kinds of cooking utensils, so they couldn't be used at all.

So the four Pokémon discussed it and decided to go out and find ingredients for Anjay.

Anjay is a chef and definitely needs all kinds of special ingredients.

After the four Pokémon described it in a flurry of words, Anjay learned that they had been to the mountains in the northwest and the forests in the east these past few days.

Some time ago, they just went to take a look at the environment of those two places, and only today did they officially start collecting ingredients.

Collecting ingredients in the wild is not easy.

When exploring the mountains in the northwest, they were chased by swarms of Beedrill and ambushed by flocks of Spearow... In the forests in the east, they accidentally provoked Ursaring and were chased for a long distance; they also accidentally picked someone else's berries and were beaten black and blue by Seedot and Shiftry...

In short, every day's adventure was very exciting.

After listening to the four Pokémon's stories, Diancie suddenly understood. No wonder the four of them were always covered in injuries for a while. When it asked the reason, the four Pokémon were secretive and refused to say.

Anjay said emotionally, "Actually, you don't have to work so hard. I can find you easier jobs."

Anjay wouldn't casually say "I'll take care of you" like that. He could indeed afford to, but he hoped that every Pokémon around him could find a job that suited them and made them happy.

However, the two Lechonk and two Charcadet shook their heads in unison.

Although going out to explore and find ingredients is hard work and even dangerous, they like it very much and feel that every day is fulfilling.

After a day of exciting adventures, there is still a place waiting for them, where delicious food will be prepared for them. There is nothing happier than this.

Even the crybaby Charcadet expressed its determination to Anjay with a firm face.

Seeing that the four Pokémon were determined, Anjay had no choice but to agree.

"But you must pay attention to safety when you go out in the future. Don't provoke those powerful Pokémon, and don't touch other people's things."

"Kou Kou ~ ~"

"Chaka ~ ~"

The four Pokémon squinted their eyes and nodded.

Anjay reached out and picked up the two Charcadet's bundles, waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go home. Since you've picked so many mushrooms, let's have a mushroom soup hot pot tonight."

The Lechonk and Charcadet, upon hearing this, couldn't wait to run home.

After arriving home, Anjay first took the dirty Snorlax and Drizzile to take a bath, and then started preparing for dinner. Because it wasn't the first time preparing hot pot, they were much faster this time. Before long, a rich aroma wafted from the kitchen.

The two Lechonk and Charcadet were lying at the door drooling, while Diancie took Metagross and Greavard to arrange the accommodation.

There are many rooms on the third floor of Anjay's house, so there's no need to worry about having no place to live. Diancie arranged for Greavard to be next to Drizzile, and Metagross to be next to Anjay.

Now Anjay's room was full of residents. Snorlax was on the right, Metagross was on the left, Drizzile was opposite, and Diancie and Greavard were diagonally opposite on both sides.

When the base was almost ready and the ingredients were almost prepared, the Pokémon returned in twos and threes, sitting around the table in the square, looking forward to the delicious food Anjay had mentioned.

When Diancie brought Greavard and Metagross down from upstairs, Anjay said to it, "Diancie, move things outside, it's time to eat!"

"Okay!" Diancie responded, took the ingredients from Snorlax's hand, and carried them out one by one.

Seeing this, Metagross controlled Robert 2 to come forward to help. It was too big to squeeze into the kitchen.

"Woof ~ Woof ~"

Greavard also wanted to drill into the kitchen excitedly, but was thrown out by Drizzile grabbing the back of its neck.

"Ji mie ~ Ji mie ~" Just wait obediently to eat, don't come in and make trouble.

Greavard: ( ` ^ ` )

When Diancie returned to the kitchen again, Gardevoir, Gallade, Ralts, Espurr, and Meowstic also came in behind it to help.

Anjay prepared a lot of hot pot ingredients today, not only the flesh of the Light Body Cod that had just been harvested today, but also many ingredients he had purchased from Mesagoza.

In addition to the fresh vegetables picked from his own vegetable garden, tonight's dinner was too rich, and even Anjay himself was looking forward to it.

Moreover, in the process of processing the ingredients, Anjay also used Aura to process the ingredients according to the guidance of the "Aura Cooking Practice Manual".

I don't know what the effect will be.

With the help of Gardevoir and the others, all the tables outside were soon filled with various ingredients, and the hot pot in the middle was bubbling and rolling, exuding a rich aroma, which made the Pokémon drool.

However, they didn't know how to eat it. Aren't these all raw?

At this time, the experienced Greavard began to jump up and down to introduce the eating method to everyone, but unfortunately it was incoherent and everyone didn't understand.

Fortunately, Charcadet and Metagross were very reliable. With the explanations of Diancie, Snorlax, and Drizzile, everyone soon started eating enthusiastically.

The moment the food entered their mouths, all the Pokémon immediately realized the difference in tonight's dinner. It was an indescribable feeling.

The flavors of the food blended together, and they felt the coordination between the ingredients and the harmony of the taste, which they had never experienced before.

Anjay himself also noticed the difference.

The ingredients were still the same ingredients, and the method was the same, but the taste was just different.

Is this the effect produced by processing ingredients with Aura?

Anjay couldn't believe that this food came from his own hands.

Too delicious!

Anjay was sure that his cooking skills had definitely surpassed his grandfather's (previous life)!
