At this moment—facing those beautiful eyes rippling with water—the farm owner subconsciously froze.
Though not yet humanized—Suicune in its Pokémon form was equally sacred and flawless—fresh and refined—like a divine maiden.
Shimmering, iridescent blue jewels adorned her forehead—and a white ribbon fluttered around her body in the wind—better highlighting her ethereal figure.
If one got as close as Wade—one could faintly smell a delicate, fresh fragrance.
It wasn't a common cold scent—but a subtle fragrance—as if permeated by clear flowing water.
It must be said—she truly lived up to her reputation as the embodiment of clarity and purity.
However—why did this scene resemble the Pokémon version of "Are you my Master?" so much?
[Master? Is that a new Pokémon?]
"Hmm?"
Hearing the ethereal, serene female voice echo in his mind—Wade said in surprise.
He hadn't even used Aura Power to transmit—yet the messenger of the north wind could hear his thoughts.
[Forgive me—I had no intention of probing your mind. However—perhaps you are the fated master foretold by Ho-Oh. With our minds aligned—I can roughly understand some of your thoughts. ]
"I see."
Wade nodded—then waved his hand—indicating that he didn't mind.
Fortunately—it was only this serene and elegant messenger of the north wind—like a divine maiden.
If it were Darkrai—the white-haired yandere—or Ms. Gardevoir—the lovesick lady—they would probably want their minds to be aligned at all times—to spy on and monitor every thought of their Trainer.
At this moment—Suicune—observing Wade up close—blinked her beautiful eyes—and a faint hint of confusion appeared between her brows.
Compared to the security personnel nearby—who were all wearing thick cotton coats—the farm owner's attire was clearly out of place—short sleeves and shorts—as if he lived in summer.
[Your clothing is rather thin—do you not feel cold?]
"Hmm—no—not at all~"
Noticing Suicune's calm yet subtly concerned gaze—Wade smiled indifferently.
Because his system level had reached three—loading eight entries—and with the boost of Master-level Aura Power—his physical fitness was much stronger than before—probably comparable to the Super True Protagonist in the anime of his past life.
"Of course—the weather here in Sinnoh has indeed been quite cold recently."
While replying softly—Wade also looked at the cold currents surging through the distant forest shade—subconsciously sighing.
Since his last experience with a cold snap—he had been constantly monitoring the weather forecast every day.
According to the predictions released by the Castform Weather Service—the average temperature in Sinnoh this year was a full 2 degrees Celsius lower than in previous years—and the difference was even greater in Snowpoint City—the northernmost point—reaching an astonishing 4 degrees Celsius—an extremely abnormal weather phenomenon.
Thinking of this—the farm owner suddenly keenly guessed the true reason for Suicune's appearance here.
"The climate has become cold—I guess the north wind has become more frequent recently, right?"
[Indeed—you are truly a knowledgeable person—]
Unlike the general impression of Trainers—Suicune's true and only title is the embodiment of the north wind—responsible for monitoring the movements of the north wind.
Water purification is merely her ability—not her true divine duty.
And the excessively frequent activity of the cold north wind recently—had also caught the attention of this messenger of the north wind.
[Alas—I have traveled through various places in Kanto and Johto—yet I have consistently failed to find a solution to the abnormal climate. ]
Suicune raised her head to look at the constantly trembling branches in the forest shade—frowning slightly.
If the problem of the rampant north wind could not be resolved—it would not merely be localized cold—but would lead to large-scale ecological destruction and imbalance—triggering a series of chain disasters.
[The best way is—of course—to seek Ho-Oh's help—but her whereabouts are truly too difficult to find. ]
[Only by combining the powers of the other two Sacred Beasts—the Clear Bell—and a Trainer with a sufficiently righteous and pure heart—can she be summoned to the Bell Tower in Ecruteak City. ]
[And you—the fated master in the prophecy—are you willing to help? ]
Saying this—Suicune gazed at the farm owner before her—her eyes burning.
Though she, Entei, and Raikou were all closely related to Ho-Oh due to the Bell Tower incident a century ago—she did not have the ability to communicate with the First-level God unilaterally—she could only contact it through pre-arranged methods.
Of course—she wasn't entirely without selfish motives.
After listening to the messenger of the north wind's account—Wade recalled the plots from the anime and games of his past life—deep in thought.
Among the two First-level Gods in the Kanto region—Lugia controls ocean currents—while Ho-Oh controls atmospheric currents.
If he wanted the north wind to cease and the climate to return to normal—he could indeed only follow Suicune's method.
[Farm Upgrade Quest 2.3] : Climate anomalies not only affect the ecological environment—but more importantly—can cause unnecessary losses to the farm. Please accept Suicune's request—and try to completely restore the out-of-control north wind to normal.
[Quest Rewards] : Sacred Ash (Rainbow)
[Sacred Ash (Rainbow) ]: Can revive Pokémon in a fainted state—and when held or used—increases Fire-type move power by 30%.
"I understand. Then—please take care of me from now on."
"Swoosh~"
Amidst the blowing north wind—Wade and Suicune gazed into each other's eyes—forging a heart-to-heart pact.
Beside them—though they didn't know what the farm owner and the messenger of the north wind had discussed through telepathy—the security personnel responsible for the cleanup were stunned when they saw Suicune lightly press the Luxury Ball button with her paw.
Unlike the security personnel—who all looked at Wade with reverence—Jenny—while shocked—looked at the farm owner with suspicion.
Could Wade be a descendant of the creator god, Arceus?
Otherwise—there was no explanation for his high appeal to Pokémon.
He had successively caught:
The aloof Articuno—like an eternal iceberg.
Darkrai—which could bring terrifying nightmares.
Zapdos—which could manipulate lightning at will.
And now—Suicune—elusive and known as the incarnation of the north wind—also seemed very interested in Wade.
Ordinary people wouldn't even be able to see their true forms—let alone capture them and gain their approval.
Of course—besides attracting various Pokémon—Wade was also remarkably effective on female Trainers.
As if recalling various unbearable past events—the police officer couldn't help but blush.
Case closed—Wade definitely had nothing to do with Arceus—he was a pure succubus!!!
Jenny nodded her head lightly—finally making her judgment.
