Gourmet master of the Pokemon world

Chapter 37: Master~ You're finally back!

"Why?!" Edward exclaimed. "You are the most esteemed member of the royal family. Isn't it only natural that you live in the palace?"

"But I already have a home outside," Angel said helplessly.

Edward misunderstood his words and exclaimed again, "What? You're already married? Who is your wife? Bring her to the palace with you! But Your Highness, forgive my bluntness, your status is so noble that ordinary women are not worthy of you!"

"Stop, stop, stop!" Angel's head throbbed. "Who told you I was married?!"

"Huh? Aren't you?" Edward was stunned. "Then why do you have a home outside? And why don't you want to live in the palace?"

"Oh, well, the reasons are complicated. Don't ask too much," Angel said.

"This... this..." Edward hesitated for a long time, and finally gave up under Angel's insistent gaze. "Then where do you live now?"

"I live on the Nibel Plateau," Angel replied.

"What? The Nibel Plateau?!" Edward was shocked again. "Isn't that a desolate and uninhabited place? How could you live there?"

Angel felt that this Edward was like a screaming chicken, constantly making a fuss.

"I think it's very nice there. I'm already used to living there," Angel said.

"Why don't you just move back to the palace?" Edward said softly. "If that doesn't work, you can live in the royal city. I'll arrange accommodation for you."

"I think the Nibel Plateau is great. That's the decision. Let's not discuss this issue anymore," Angel said to Edward, who was about to launch into a lengthy speech.

Edward: . . .

At this moment, Princess姬美雅 said, "How about... this? Father, later I will go to the Nibel Plateau with His Highness to see if His Highness's residence is really bad. We can send people to build a villa for His Highness on the Nibel Plateau."

Anyway, all the unowned land within Azoth belongs to the royal family. They can build houses wherever they want.

Edward's eyes lit up when he heard this. "That's a good idea! That's a good idea!"

姬美雅 added, "Actually, there's nothing wrong with His Highness living on the Nibel Plateau. The Nibel Plateau is like spring all year round, with a mild climate. His Highness has been in poor health since he was a child, and living there is perfect for recuperation."

Angel gave 姬美雅 an appreciative look, and 姬美雅 smiled back at Angel.

After being reminded by his daughter, Edward remembered that Prince Angel had been weak and sickly since he was a child, otherwise he would not have died young back then. "Yes, yes, 姬美雅 is very thoughtful. Looking at it this way, the Nibel Plateau is indeed good."

Seeing this, Angel finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, let's hold a grand banquet for His Highness's return! We can take this opportunity to announce His Highness's return to the people. I believe the people will be happy for His Highness as well," Edward suddenly said with a whimsical idea.

"No!" Angel quickly stopped him. "Let's handle my affairs discreetly. I just woke up and have limited energy. I can't handle those things."

"Is that so..." Edward looked regretful.

姬美雅 spoke up in a timely manner, "Father, His Highness has just returned. Let's take things slowly."

Edward thought about it and agreed, "Then let's talk about these things later." After speaking, he sighed deeply again, "It's just that His Highness is being wronged too much."

Angel: . . .

I don't feel wronged at all.

Angel felt that it was too tiring and exhausting to talk to Edward.

Some even felt that since Angel was unwilling to hold a banquet and celebration to announce his return, his royal status should be announced to the people online.

In short, all kinds of things were chaotic and very complicated.

In the end, all of Angel's affairs were handed over to Princess 姬美雅 for full arrangement.

Walking out of the hall, Angel breathed a long sigh of relief. It was really not easy.

姬美雅 followed closely behind, and she said to Angel with a smile, "Your Highness, you've worked hard."

Angel gave a wry smile.

Just then, a head suddenly poked out from behind a pillar next to them.

"拉凯尔, what are you doing hiding there?" 姬美雅 asked when she saw him.

"Hehe~~ Sister." 拉凯尔 walked out embarrassedly. "It's nothing. I just wanted to see Prince Angel."

姬美雅 said, "If you want to see him, just look at him openly. Why are you being so sneaky?"

拉凯尔 scratched his head and smiled foolishly.

"You are Prince 拉凯尔? It's a pleasure to meet you." Angel greeted 拉凯尔 with a warm smile.

Thinking that these were all descendants of his sister, a sense of love welled up in his heart, even though he was not very old! Why did his mentality suddenly become that of an old man?

"Y-You... Hello! Prince Angel."

Compared to 姬美雅, 拉凯尔's personality was much more introverted.

"Your Highness, have you really lived for five hundred years?" 拉凯尔 asked in a low voice.

"To be precise, I have been sleeping for five hundred years. My physical condition is still the same as before I fell asleep," Angel replied.

"That's amazing. As expected of艾利法斯, he can even do this!" Excitement flashed across 拉凯尔's face.

拉凯尔 was a fanatic of艾利法斯, which is why he had been obsessed with various inventions and research since he was sensible.

Angel smiled. Sure enough, it was right to attribute everything to艾利法斯. No one would doubt it, and there was no way to prove anything.

Mysterious science emphasizes the word "mysterious."

Then 拉凯尔 looked at蒂安希. "You are蒂安希?"

蒂安希 nodded. "That's right, Prince 拉凯尔."

"You are so beautiful." 拉凯尔 couldn't help but praise.

"Thank you." 蒂安希 generously accepted 拉凯尔's praise. "Your Highness is also very handsome and cute."

A little boy who was not even ten years old had little handsomeness left, only cuteness.

"R-Really?" 拉凯尔 was embarrassed by 蒂安希's praise, and his little face turned red.

蒂安希 covered her mouth and laughed at the sight.

"Can I shake your hand?" 拉凯尔 asked shyly.

"Of course, it's my honor, Your Highness." 蒂安希 readily agreed and extended her right hand to 拉凯尔.

拉凯尔 was extremely excited. He vigorously wiped his hand on his clothes before shaking 蒂安希's hand.

In his mind, 蒂安希 was born because of艾利法斯. Shaking hands with 蒂安希 meant shaking hands with his idol.

After shaking hands, 拉凯尔 kept staring at his hand and giggling, amusing Angel, 蒂安希, and 姬美雅.

Angel said with a smile, "拉凯尔 is really innocent and lovely."

姬美雅's smile faded when she heard this, and she sighed deeply. "He's just too innocent."

"Oh~~ Prince Angel is still here!"

Suddenly a voice rang out.

"It's perfect timing, I actually have a few things I wanted to ask you, Your Highness."

An Jie turned his head and saw a middle-aged man with long purple hair slowly walking out of the main hall.

"Who is this...?" An Jie asked Ji Meiya.

Ji Meiya's expression turned slightly cold when she saw who it was. "This is Defense Minister Jarvis, and also a leading expert in the country's arcane sciences."

"Greetings, Your Highness," Jarvis said, bowing to An Jie.

"Hello, Mr. Jarvis," An Jie nodded slightly to Jarvis.

Lakell was very happy to see Jarvis. "Jarvis, you're here!"

"Your Highness." Jarvis bowed slightly to Lakell again, and finally nodded to Ji Meiya. "Princess Ji Meiya."

An Jie asked with a puzzled expression, "Mr. Jarvis, what can I do for you?"

Jarvis first looked at Diancie with a fiery gaze, and then said to An Jie, "I would like to ask you about Lord Eliphas. After all, you are the one who met Lord Eliphas in person, so you must have communicated with him. I want to..."

Before he could finish speaking, An Jie interrupted him directly, "I'm very sorry, but it's getting late, and it's time for me to go back, or I'll be late."

An Jie didn't like the way Jarvis looked at Diancie, so his first impression of him was very bad.

"Well... alright then." Jarvis's face was a little stiff. "Then I'll ask Your Highness for guidance when I have the time."

With that, An Jie said goodbye to Ji Meiya and Lakell.

"Your Highness, let me see you off," Ji Meiya said.

"Okay," An Jie nodded, then said to Lakell, "Lakell, see you next time."

Lakell waved her hand and said, "See you next time, Your Highness An Jie."

Afterwards, An Jie was sent back to where the food truck was parked by Ji Meiya. He firmly refused Ji Meiya's suggestion to send him back or have the guards send him back. He drove the car himself, taking Diancie and Altaria Dad, and slowly drove away from the palace.

As soon as he left the palace, An Jie found a hidden corner, put the food truck back into his system backpack, teleported Diancie home, and then flew away from the royal city on Altaria Dad's back.

When An Jie got home, the sun had just set. He saw Munchlax sitting alone on the steps at the door, looking very dejected.

"Munchlax, what's wrong?"

Hearing An Jie's voice, Munchlax suddenly raised his head, a bright smile on his face, and then ran to An Jie in a puff of smoke and hugged him tightly.

"Munch~ Munch~" Master, you're back! I missed you so much!

An Jie hadn't been able to come back all afternoon, and he had suddenly summoned Diancie away. Munchlax was very worried being alone at home.

Although Diancie had already told it what happened after returning, it couldn't help but worry until it saw its master return.

"Alright, alright!" An Jie kept patting Munchlax's back to comfort it. "I'm back now."

"Munch~ Munch~"

Munchlax rubbed its head against An Jie affectionately.

At this moment, Diancie walked out of the house.

"Alright, Munchlax, you're acting spoiled with your master again!"

Munchlax released An Jie embarrassedly.

Diancie shook her head helplessly. "You're really a child who won't grow up."

"Munch~" Munchlax scratched the back of its head and smiled憨憨.

"Let's go, let's go inside."

As he spoke, An Jie extended a hand to Munchlax, and Munchlax naturally took it.

An Jie asked as he walked, "Is Komala not home again?"

Speaking of Komala, Munchlax was full of anger. When it was sent back by An Jie, Munchlax wanted to ask it about An Jie, but it only cared about sleeping and didn't say a word, then it rolled out the door with a咕噜噜, and Munchlax couldn't catch up even with its little legs.

Too angry!!!

Seeing Munchlax gesticulating angrily, An Jie didn't understand much, but still comforted it with a smile.

"Okay, let's not be angry. I'll make you something delicious tonight."

As soon as it heard there was something delicious, Munchlax really threw Komala out of its mind.

An Jie and Munchlax walked into the house hand in hand, but were surprised to find that Kirlia was also there.

"Kirlia, what are you doing here?"

"Kirli~ Kirli~"

Kirlia greeted An Jie happily.

After Diancie explained, An Jie learned that Kirlia had come to the store to help this morning shortly after An Jie left.

It wanted to repay An Jie for helping Gardevoir and the baby, so it could only do its best to help at the store.

An Jie asked, "If you're here, doesn't Gardevoir need to be taken care of?"

"Kirli~ Kirli~~"

Kirlia gestured to explain that their house was very close to Delphox's house, and Delphox would help take care of Gardevoir and the baby.

Because of the energy cubes given by An Jie, Gardevoir recovered quickly and can now move freely, so there is no need to worry.

Moreover, Kirlia also asked Talonflame Dad to help incubate the eggs. Talonflame Dad often helps everyone incubate eggs, and everyone is used to it. It can make the baby hatch faster.

"I see..." An Jie said with a smile, "Then thank you for your hard work. By the way, stay for dinner tonight, and bring some to Gardevoir too. Besides energy cubes, you can occasionally change to other flavors."

Kirlia hesitated when she heard this.

Seeing this, Munchlax hugged it.

"Munch~ Munch~" Stay, my master cooks very well, much better than me.

Munchlax is a master of acting spoiled, and Kirlia couldn't resist at all, so she had to agree.

An Jie quietly gave Munchlax a thumbs up.

Munchlax also blinked cutely at An Jie.

When An Jie planned to cook dinner with Munchlax and walked into the kitchen, he was immediately frightened by the things piled up inside.

"This... what's going on?" An Jie asked Munchlax and Diancie.

The kitchen was piled high with Aspear seaweed, water bamboo shoots, various wild berries, mushrooms... and many things An Jie didn't recognize.

Diancie explained, "These were all sent by the Pokémon this morning."

These were all gifts from the Pokémon on the plateau after learning that An Jie had saved Gardevoir and the baby.

Poliwag knew that An Jie liked Aspear seaweed, so they specially picked Aspear seaweed to send.

Marill and Azurill knew that An Jie liked water bamboo shoots, so they specially went to peel water bamboo shoots. There are actually quite a lot of these things in Lake Nibel, and they grow in large patches.

Everyone didn't know it could be eaten before.

And those berries and mushrooms were all specially picked by everyone.

"You guys... really..."

Looking at the kitchen that was piled up, An Jie felt really touched. He only saved Gardevoir, but he received the gratitude of everyone on the plateau.

Sure enough, sincerity must be exchanged with sincerity.

"Okay, let's quickly clean these up, or we'll delay making dinner," An Jie yelled.

What a sweet burden.
