People in the Elf: God rewards hard work and I become stronger at the speed of light Chapter 245

Character name suggestions:

Bai Ze (白泽)

Na Zi (娜姿)

Cang Xiang (苍响)

Wu Ji Tai Na (无极汰那)

Zang Ma Ran Te (藏玛然特)

The moment Bai Ze’s invitation was spoken, the air instantly fell silent, as if even the floating sea breeze became gentle and slow.

“Meow~?”

Upon hearing this, Mewtwo’s face immediately showed a look of interest.

After gracefully swimming and spinning a few times in mid-air, it looked excited… To be honest, this was the first time it had ever witnessed a human trainer inviting a top-tier legendary Pokémon!

Would it agree?

Judging by the previous scene, the possibility of it agreeing seemed quite high… If it really did agree, would I be witnessing history?

Hehehe~

How fun, how fun!

Meanwhile, Na Zi, seeing this scene, clenched her fists tightly, a little nervous.

Her palms were instantly covered in sweat.

She subconsciously held her breath, her heart pounding as if it wanted to leap out of her chest, making her ears ring with drum-like echoes.

Since confirming her relationship with Bai Ze, she had learned many unknown secrets from him.

Among them.

There were numerous legendary Pokémon and mythical beasts.

And as Bai Ze mentioned, the Sword King Cang Xiang, a Pokémon at least on par with a Tier 1 god, and quite possibly a top-tier legendary, although she was seeing it for the first time, she had long heard of it.

As the guardian deity of the Galar region.

By analogy, it was equivalent to the status of Ho-Oh and Lugia in this region!

If Bai Ze truly captured such an existence, then he would become the first trainer in history to control a divine beast and wield the power of a god!

Na Zi,

was genuinely nervous, expectant, and excited…

Neither Na Zi nor Mewtwo, nor even Bai Ze himself, had expected Cang Xiang to agree so readily, despite having some confidence in this invitation.

“Yes!”

Without a trace of hesitation, Cang Xiang’s steady voice remained as noble and dignified as ever. Its personality, like its name, was as sharp and direct as a sword: “Or rather, I came for this very purpose!”

“You are the only one who can awaken the ‘Sword’. Our destinies are intertwined, and you are the trainer who can help me unleash the full power of the Rusted Sword to the greatest extent!”

“I need your power!”

“If you also need mine, then I naturally cannot refuse!”

“However, I hope you can promise me to accompany me to Galar at an opportune time to search for Wu Ji Tai Na’s whereabouts and prevent the possible recurrence of the Darkest Day!”

The so-called Darkest Day.

Was a special phenomenon caused when the entity named Wu Ji Tai Na, as Cang Xiang mentioned, attempted to absorb the energy of the Galar region to sustain its life.

Approximately 3000 years ago, Wu Ji Tai Na, an extraterrestrial visitor, descended and rampaged throughout the Galar region. The red light it emitted for feeding affected the entire continent, causing countless Pokémon living in Galar to Dynamax and run wild.

The Galar region nearly faced extinction because of this!

At a critical juncture.

It was Cang Xiang and Zang Ma Ran Te, a pair of siblings who were both top-tier legendaries, who joined forces.

With the power of the sword and shield,

they defeated Wu Ji Tai Na, restoring the Galar region to its original state.

However, the scattered fragments and energy of the defeated Wu Ji Tai Na became the source of the distinctive ‘Dynamax Battles’ in the current Galar region, as well as one of the important energy sources for the region’s survival and development.

“Of course, that’s no problem!”

Although a bit stunned by Cang Xiang’s straightforwardness, Bai Ze quickly recovered and agreed to Cang Xiang’s request without hesitation.

In his opinion, this couldn’t even be considered a request.

Because…

“If we become partners, then all of this should naturally be my burden, shouldn’t it?”

“……”

Cang Xiang didn’t answer, but its eyes revealed undisguised admiration… This sense of responsibility certainly justified its choice.

Cang Xiang slowly lowered its head, moving closer to Bai Ze.

No words were needed.

Bai Ze already understood its meaning.

He gently placed his palm on Cang Xiang’s forehead, on the golden ‘crown’ faceplate: “My name is Bai Ze. From now on, please guide me, Cang Xiang!”

Instantly.

Dazzling light reappeared!

Bai Ze squinted slightly. When the light dispersed, Cang Xiang had returned to its original form.

And the ‘Rusted Sword’ also vanished without a trace.

Bai Ze felt something.

He unfastened and pulled up the cuff of his left arm.

Immediately.

The sparkling Rusted Sword, scaled down proportionally to the size of a thumb, was imprinted on Bai Ze’s left wrist like a brand.

It looked like a lifelike sword tattoo, appearing quite ordinary.

But then, Bai Ze’s thoughts stirred slightly.

First, the characters on the sword’s spine lit up faintly, and then the entire Rusted Sword emitted a brilliant golden glow…

A mysterious connection formed between him and Cang Xiang.

Bai Ze had a feeling.

As long as he wished.

He could make Cang Xiang transform directly into its Sword King form at any time and anywhere!

“From now on, our destinies are closely intertwined.”

As Cang Xiang’s declaration-like words fell.

The system’s notification sound also rang out—

[You have obtained a special mark: Rusted Sword. You have gained some insight, all attributes + 2. You have obtained simulated combat technique: Behemoth Blade (requires the power of the Rusted Sword, left hand only)]

Good heavens!

After the system notification completely disappeared, a hint of astonishment appeared in Bai Ze’s eyes… ‘Lazy Fish Stab’ Behemoth Blade? Wasn’t that Cang Xiang’s exclusive skill in its Sword King form?

Now,

he could use it directly?

Bai Ze was genuinely a bit stunned.

What was this?

A human being able to use a Pokémon’s skill, and an exclusive skill from a top-tier legendary’s special state at that… Was he still a pure human?

Bai Ze brainstormed for a moment.

But then.

Feeling the sword-sharp power contained within his left arm, Bai Ze suddenly felt a little eager to try.

And after looking around.

He set his sights on Mewtwo, who had an expression of witnessing history not far away…

Mewtwo: “???”

PS 1: The black and white dragons chose humans, humans didn’t initiate the invitation, so they don’t count. Also, I set the black and white dragons to be slightly weaker than top-tier legendaries, so they can’t be considered top-tier legendaries, at most high-tier legendaries~
