Gourmet master of the Pokemon world

The next second, Gallade raised an arm, and purple light gathered in his hand, quickly forming a transparent purple blade.

It was Psycho Cut!

Empowered by Caitlin's psychic abilities, this Psycho Cut became unprecedentedly powerful.

"Gallade!"

Gallade shouted and swung his arm forcefully, launching the purple blade. Komala quickly used its log pillow to defend.

But to everyone's surprise, with a snap, the log pillow in Komala's hands directly split in half.

For the first time, Ange saw an expression of "astonishment" on Komala's face.

Because it was too shocked, Komala froze in place, forgetting to react, and was blasted away by Gallade's subsequent attack.

The intense pain finally brought it back to its senses.

Because Komala was facing away from Ange, Ange couldn't see its expression, but Caitlin, who was facing it directly, saw its expression change.

She first saw a flash of anger on Komala's face, which quickly turned into seriousness.

Caitlin suddenly had a bad feeling.

Komala rushed to Gallade's side in the blink of an eye, using Play Rough. The two halves of the log pillow in its hands burst out with a strong pink light, slamming hard at Gallade.

Gallade raised his arm blades to defend, but was directly knocked away, crashing heavily into the barrier of the battlefield.

Komala didn't pause at all, reappearing next to Gallade in a flash.

Gallade wanted to use Teleport to dodge, but Komala didn't give him a chance at all.

The log pillow in Komala's hand had disappeared at some point (stored in the system backpack), and Caitlin and Cynthia's attention was completely attracted by the fierce battle, so no one noticed.

Komala grabbed one of Gallade's hands and used Fling.

Gallade was swung around a circle before being slammed heavily on the ground, letting out a painful groan.

Not giving Gallade a chance to react, Komala spat out green glowing seeds at him.

It was a Grass-type Seed Bomb.

After a round of bombardment, Gallade finally completely lost his ability to fight.

Looking at the two Pokémon in the field, Ange, Caitlin, and Cynthia all fell into silence.

Caitlin and Cynthia were shocked by Ange's strength.

The League's Elite Four were swept one after another, it was simply too miserable.

Ange, on the other hand, was silent because of the sad atmosphere emanating from Komala.

He walked to the center of the field and gently picked up Komala, "Komala, are you okay?"

Komala grabbed Ange's clothes with its two small paws and buried its head in Ange's arms.

The silent silence made Ange feel even more distressed.

Yes, how could it be okay? That was something that had been with it since birth.

In the countless years of torment by Darkrai in the past, it was that log pillow that silently accompanied it through day after day.

Although the log pillow had no life, to Komala, it was an irreplaceable family member.

Ange gently stroked Komala's back, silently comforting it.

Realizing the importance of the log pillow to Komala, he didn't say anything about finding a new one to replace it.

Although finding a new one was indeed necessary, Ange knew that the new one couldn't replace the old one, the meaning was completely different.

At this time, Caitlin handed her three injured Pokémon to the returning Butler Bernard and walked to Ange's side with Cynthia.

"I lost. According to the agreement, I will sell you the herbs!" Caitlin said.

Ange smiled and said, "Then thank you very much! I will pay according to the market price."

However, Caitlin waved her hand and said, "Hmph, there's no need for money. They are the spoils of your victory in battle!"

Ange hesitated, "This... is that okay?"

So many herbs were worth a lot of money on the market.

Caitlin said impatiently, "I'm giving them to you, just take them! What are you being so wishy-washy for!"

The loss of the battle made her feel very irritable, and she felt that her psychic powers were about to go berserk. She didn't want to stay here any longer at this moment.

Seeing that Caitlin's situation was not right, Cynthia said to Ange, "Since Caitlin has said so, just accept it. These are nothing to her!"

Caitlin was a veritable rich woman.

Seeing that both of them had said so, Ange naturally didn't pretend anymore, "In that case, I will shamelessly accept Miss Caitlin's kindness."

Caitlin said, "You can pick those herbs yourself. If you need help, find Butler Bernard!" After saying that, she turned and left, flying away with her psychic powers.

Seeing this, Cynthia first smiled at Ange, then quickly chased after Caitlin.

After the two left, Ange found Butler Bernard and wanted to ask him to help hire some people to help pick the herbs.

Caitlin's herb field was very large, and he didn't know how long it would take to pick them all by himself.

Bernard looked at the sky and said, "It's not a big problem to find someone to help, but it's getting late now, and it will be dark soon. Why don't you stay here for the night, and we'll start tomorrow?"

Ange asked, "Is it okay for me to stay here?"

Bernard smiled and said, "Of course it's okay. Miss has already told me in advance that if you want to stay here for a night, let me arrange it."

Ange suddenly understood, "Miss Caitlin is actually quite nice!"

Bernard thought to himself: My lady is not so friendly to others!

The reason why Ange was able to receive preferential treatment was because he had won against Caitlin, but how many other Champions and Elite Four of the League could win against Caitlin?

Later, under Bernard's arrangement, Ange moved into a guest room in the manor.

After resting in the guest room, Ange released all of his Pokémon.

Latias, Latios, Komala, Aegislash, Gardevoir, Gallade.

There were also Staraptor and Glaceon, who had traveled with him.

Plus Greavard and Maushold who temporarily joined.

And then Lilligant, Floette and three Flabébé.

Fortunately, Caitlin's guest room was large enough to accommodate so many Pokémon without feeling crowded.

Seeing Komala staring blankly while holding the split log pillow, Ange walked over and said, "Komala, how about we have a barbecue tonight? Barbecue with beer, all you can eat tonight!"

Komala silently put the two halves of the log pillow into the system backpack, but it felt uncomfortable not holding something, so it climbed up Ange's arm all the way to the top of Ange's head and hugged the top of Ange's head.

Ange reached out and touched Komala, saying with a wry smile, "Alright, I'll let you hold me like this for now!"

After saying that, he looked at the other Pokémon and said, "Let's have a barbecue party!"

Latias, Latios, Gardevoir, Gallade, and Aegislash immediately cheered upon hearing this.

Barbecue, yay!

Yamper, Snom, Milcery, and Comfey were all wide-eyed and puzzled, as they had no idea what barbecue was.

"Let's go, we'll go to the yard!" Ange waved his hand.

Outside the guest room was a spacious courtyard, perfect for a barbecue party.

Arriving in the courtyard, Ange first took out the equipment needed for the barbecue.

Barbecue grill, charcoal, skewers, gloves...…

Next were the seasonings and ingredients.

Rock salt, ground hot pepper seeds, cumin, sweet honey, barbecue sauce...… Beef, lamb, pork belly, shrimp, fish, eggplant, chives, lettuce, potatoes, large mushrooms, small mushrooms, fragrant mushrooms...…

In a short while, the courtyard was full of stuff.

Gardevoir, Gallade, and Aegislash, being skilled, quickly stepped forward to help.

Gardevoir and Gallade helped process the ingredients, and Aegislash was responsible for cutting the ingredients.

Ange then skewered the ingredients cut by Aegislash onto the skewers.

Milcery was originally just watching from the side, but was too embarrassed to freeload, so she took Comfey and Flabébé forward to ask:

"Is there anything we can help with?"

Ange thought for a moment and said, "Then help me with the skewers!"

Milcery nodded and started working like Ange.

So under Ange's guidance, Milcery, Comfey, and Flabébé were soon able to work independently.

Because Comfey and Flabébé had small hands and were holding fairy flowers, they used vine whips instead of hands to work.

With Milcery and the others helping, Ange was able to free up his hands to start grilling.

As time passed, the rich aroma of the barbecue began to waft through the courtyard, and Milcery and the others, who were experiencing barbecue for the first time, were almost intoxicated by the fragrance.

When the skewers were grilled, the Pokémon immediately feasted, and for a time the entire courtyard was filled with a happy and joyful atmosphere.

Even Komala didn't bother to be sad.

Ange saw Komala holding barbecue in his left hand and beer in his right, gobbling it up, and couldn't help but smile.

Being able to make Komala feel better meant that he had achieved his goal.

Just as Ange and the others were enjoying themselves, a voice suddenly sounded.

"What are you eating? It smells so good!"

Ange looked in the direction of the voice and saw Cynthia appearing in the courtyard at some point.

"Miss Cynthia?" Ange asked in surprise.

Seeing Cynthia staring straight at the barbecue in his hand, Ange hesitated for a moment and asked:

"Want to try some?"

Cynthia's face suddenly lit up with a smile more radiant than a flower, "Then I won't be polite!"

Before Ange could react, the barbecue in his hand was already in Cynthia's hand.

Swallowing a piece of grilled beef in one bite, Cynthia closed her eyes happily, and said while chewing, "Delicious, so delicious!"

The Pokémon world naturally has barbecue, but Cynthia had never eaten such a special barbecue, the perfect fusion of sauce and ingredients, the rich aroma was like dancing on the tip of the tongue.

Ange's barbecue skills were not particularly outstanding, after all, he didn't learn it from the system.

However, he used his aura power to process the ingredients and seasonings, making their taste incredibly harmonious.

In addition, the sauce was also mixed with his own special Doubanjiang, and Bagu Mushroom and Spicy Mushroom Sauce were used in the grilling process.

He even used the skills he learned from Grandma Yulian to incorporate herbs into the barbecue, making the taste of the barbecue even more unique.

With these blessings, even if Ange grilled shoe soles, it would be delicious! Not to mention that the ingredients Ange used were all top-notch quality.

A skewer of grilled beef was almost finished by Cynthia in the blink of an eye.

Licking her lips, Cynthia realized that she had done something very rude when she saw Ange looking at her with a surprised expression, so her pretty face turned red.

"That… that… I'm sorry, it's just that the barbecue you made is too delicious!"

Ange asked with a smile, "Why don't you sit down and eat?"

Cynthia asked in surprise, "Can I?"

Ange nodded and said, "Of course, it's an honor!"

"Then I won't be polite!" Cynthia walked generously into the group of Pokémon.

When she saw Latias and Latios, she was stunned for a moment, but she didn't ask any more questions, she just became more curious about Ange.

He was even a legendary trainer! No wonder he could win against Dahlia so easily.

Gardevoir gently pushed a few plates of barbecue in front of Cynthia and smiled at her, Cynthia said gratefully, "Thank you."

Gardevoir shook her head to indicate that she was welcome.

Ange thought for a moment and asked Cynthia, "Would you like some beer!"

Cynthia glanced at Komala who was drinking beer, subconsciously swallowed, and then answered decisively, "Yes!"

So Ange brought a few bottles of beer and put them in front of Cynthia.

Cynthia said while eating, "I heard from Butler Bernard that you have moved into the manor, so I wanted to say hello, but I didn't expect to find you barbecuing.

I'm sorry for coming uninvited!"

Ange shook his head and said, "It's an honor for the champion to come, I'm happy to have you! Besides, Miss Cynthia, you helped me a lot during the day, so this is my thank you gift."

Hearing Ange mention the matter during the day, Cynthia said, "Dahlia has a bad temper, I apologize to you on her behalf for today's matter."

Ange said, "Miss Cynthia, you're being too serious, I didn't take it to heart, I was the one who made a rash visit first and made unreasonable requests, I was already very happy that Miss Dahlia was willing to see me."

Cynthia sighed and said, "Dahlia's temper wasn't like this before, but later her psychic powers became stronger and stronger, and she couldn't always control them completely, which is why her temper gradually became irritable."

Ange was suddenly enlightened when he heard this, "Then I have even less reason to be angry."

At this time, Cynthia took a sip of beer, and her eyes suddenly lit up, "This beer tastes so special!"

Ange smiled and said, "Miss Cynthia, I'm glad you like it, it was brewed by my Passimian."

Cynthia was even more surprised when she heard this, she looked at the golden liquid in the glass and said, "It was actually brewed by Pokémon, this is the first time I've had such a special wine!"

Ange couldn't help but feel a little proud when his Pokémon were praised, so he said:

"If Miss Cynthia has the opportunity to visit Azoth, she can taste even more delicious wine."

"I will definitely go if I have the opportunity!" Cynthia's face showed a look of anticipation, she thought for a while and then said, "Don't call me Miss Cynthia, just call me Cynthia!"

Ange readily said, "Okay, then you can just call me Ange!"

Cynthia nodded, "Okay, Ange."

While chatting, Cynthia saw that Komala's log was missing, so she said, "Komala must be very uncomfortable without his log, right?"

She knew very well how important the log was to Komala.

Ange nodded and smiled wryly, "Who says it isn't."

Cynthia said, "If you need my help making a new log, please feel free to ask." After all, Dahlia was partly responsible for the destruction of the log.

Ange said gratefully, "Okay, I won't be polite then."
