My Name is Lucario

Fortunately, as Arceus's chosen daughter and the author's own daughter, things did not go in the worst direction.

In the Fire Pokémon Gym in Fuquan Town.

"I can help you find your Pokémon. I'm free anyway."

Asha, with long fiery red hair, readily agreed.

"But, won't this affect your work, sister Asha? As the owner of the Pokémon Gym, shouldn't you have a lot of things to do?"

Seeing Asha agree so quickly, Asuka felt a little embarrassed.

"Well..."

Asha rolled her eyes, then took out her cell phone and made a call.

"Hello, Xiaoke, yes, come here first."

Not long after, a girl in a professional suit hurried over.

"Xiaoke, I have something important to do now, so I'd like to trouble you to help me deal with these things first."

Asha handed the documents in her hand to her assistant with a serious face.

"...Yes, yes."

Perhaps stunned by the solemn expression on Yasha's face, Assistant Xiaoke took the file in a daze, and then watched Yasha, Asuka and Fengling walk out of the Pokémon Gym.

"Look, isn't it done?" Yasha proudly gestured to Asuka as soon as they walked out of the gym.

Asuka looked back at the gym with a pitiful look, and Yasha's voice continued to come to his ears.

"If it is the Pokémon that disappeared on the volcano, then I roughly know where he will go. Come, go to a place with me."

...

In a trance, the endless darkness covered the ray of spiritual light.

Where is this?

I don't know if it was affected by the hidden sense of threat, but my dreams recently were all strange.

Leo thought so.

In the vast emptiness, he was the only one standing alone.

Don't worry.

A voice sounded softly in his ears.

The voice was familiar, just like... just like the gentle, loving voice when he used the waveguide for the first time.

There is still time, and what you need to do is to grow, to grow to the strongest, so that you can become the last beam of light in this world.

The voice paused.

Light.

Leo opened his mouth, unable to speak.

He wanted not to be anxious, but just thinking back to the fierce and domineering momentum of the Blazing Roaring Tiger, his heart was still trembling slightly.

Grow to be the strongest?

I'm afraid I can't do it...

Leo was a little frustrated, but the voice was still so gentle.

Yes, you may not be able to do it yourself, but remember to look behind you, you have never been a person, you have never been an elf, from the past to now, you have never been.

Behind me?

Yes, don't rush forward, look back.

The voice gradually faded away.

He/she/we have always been there.

...

At the foot of Yangyan Volcano, in a small house.

An old man who looked older but still full of energy was sipping tea slowly.

Behind him, a dragon-shaped elf with its wings folded was lying lazily, and its tail was swinging gently in boredom like a burning fire.

"I'm old now, I still can't drink so much."

The old man sighed.

Asha, who was sitting opposite the tea table, rolled her eyes.

"Come on, you drank more than me when you drank a few days ago."

Asha joked with the old man, but Asuka, who was sitting next to Asha, was a little restrained and anxious.

"Hello, Grandpa Akagi, I want to ask about my elf..."

Akagi smiled and poured a cup of tea for the girl.

"Don't worry, I have already treated it urgently, and his injuries are much better now."

"And..."

Akagi looked at Kirlia, who had been splashing sparkling water drops on Riolu lying on the bed, and said in an appreciative tone.

"Although your Pokémon is not very proficient in the move [Life Drop], its control over energy is also one of the best."

"With this move, your strange Pokémon will not have any problems."

At this time, the drops of water that kept dripping from Kirulian's hand were the move [Life Drop] she had just learned, which could heal injuries and restore energy for her companions or herself.

As for how she learned this move, that is another story.

After hearing what the legendary trainer Akagi said, Asuka still felt a little uneasy and kept looking back at the motionless Riolu.

Suddenly, Rio's body twitched.

His eyes slowly opened, and his pupils were confused and out of focus.

"Ah, Rio, how do you feel?"

Asuka ran to the bedside as soon as possible.

"..."

Leo blinked his eyes at the little face so close to him, and then he said slowly and tiredly: "I'm fine... maybe."

This guy is only the hardest-mouthed one, and Asuka was so angry that he wanted to hit him on the head, but when the fist was about to fall on Leo's head, it turned into a palm and gently touched Leo's head.

"Sorry, it's my fault."

After habitually complaining about his trainer, Leo sincerely apologized.

Asuka stopped talking at this time, pulled Lulu, sat back at the tea table, and said nothing.

"Talking elves are rare in the world now. "

The old man's voice came.

Leo struggled to sit up and thanked the old man.

When he fell off the cliff, although his consciousness was blurred, his instinctive waveguide induction still remembered who saved him in the critical moment.

It was the old man with gray hair and beard in front of him, and the fire-breathing dragon behind him.

Asha also looked at Leo curiously.

"Grandpa Akagi, what kind of elf do you think this little guy is? Why have I never seen it?"

As expected, this is the question that everyone who sees Leo will ask.

But unexpectedly, old man Akagi answered Asha's question thoughtfully.

"Let me think about it. Thirty years ago, I seemed to have seen information about this kind of elf. It seems to be called Riolu. It belongs to the fighting type of elf. At the same time, they also master a kind of energy called waveguide, which is very magical. "

Unexpectedly, someone could recognize Leo's elf race, and Leo quickly asked: "Excuse me, have you seen an elf like me? "

Old Akagi stroked his beard.

"I haven't seen it in reality, but I have a good friend who is interested in archaeology and has studied relevant information."

"If you are interested, you can go to the west of Middle, where there are many historical records of the ancient Xiancui area, and there are also many ancient ruins. I believe that in those distant memories, you can know a lot of information."

The old man put down the teacup in his hand.

"But I want to tell you something."

"It is a good thing to pursue the limit, but too much is as bad as too little, and it will eventually go against your wishes."

"It is even possible that you will lose a lot."

The fire-breathing dragon behind him roared in a low voice, and old Akagi seemed to have a hint.

Leo looked at his clenched fists.

"What are you pursuing?"

Unconsciously, old Akagi walked in front of Leo.

"The strongest."

"What is the strongest?"

"I don't know."

"Then how to find it?"

"Punch, punch continuously. ”

“Why do you punch?”

“Without fear, punch as I wish.”

“What should I do when I am afraid?”

“Smash it!”

After a question and answer session, old man Akagi nodded slightly.

“It’s good to pursue the strongest, but now, I think you should first consider how to appease your trainer and your friends.”

The old man pointed at the angry Asuka Teru and Rulu who turned away from Rio.

“Ibrahimovic?”

Ibrahimovic ignored the strange atmosphere and licked his tea by himself, looking very happy.

“For you, your trainer ran up to the Yangyan Volcano regardless of the danger, and even wanted to use his only badge to fight with me in exchange for your information. "

Asha stabbed him again.

Leo sighed.

He walked to Asuka and tugged at the corner of Asuka's clothes with his claws.

"I was wrong. I shouldn't have gone to train alone and made you worry."

After hearing what Leo said, Asuka's face showed a bit of sadness.

She took out Leo's Poké Ball and put it on the tea table, staring at Leo and speaking word by word.

"No, you don't understand at all. I don't care if you want to train by yourself, and I won't even blame you for worrying us when you are in danger. What I really think you are wrong about is that you don't trust me and your partners at all!"

"I thought we had experienced so many bumps and bumps before, but we also overcame them all the way, and there is enough trust between us."

"In the end, I found that I thought too much."

"So, I figured it out. You are a free Pokémon who doesn't want to be bound. You don't need a trainer at all."

"I will untie it."

"You are free. "

The atmosphere suddenly became serious, and even the Eevee, who was licking the tea, looked at the two people (elves) with some fear.

Old Akagi sat in his seat, still sipping his tea slowly.

——Trust is not something that can be easily acquired by simply saying "I trust you". Especially for two individuals with a high level of self-awareness, trusting each other must go through a lot of things. However, this trust after tempering can often burst out with a more powerful force!
