Having decided to challenge the teacher, Satoru's blood began to pump with excitement.
To crush his opponent and get the Ability Patch—this was how he would repay the teacher for all his guidance!
[Host, don't worry, just go for it. I've got your back. If things get really bad, you can just use your Super-Masaran body and step in yourself ?(ˊ?ˋ*)]
'Furiko's' voice appeared in his mind, showing immense confidence in Satoru.
If he could, Satoru really wanted to drag her out and give her a spanking. What kind of trainer steps into a Pokémon battle themselves?
Besides, how could he possibly win like that? He was just an ordinary person who could barely throw a tree a dozen meters.
"Furiko, what do you think my chances of winning are?"
Satoru asked inwardly. It wasn't that he was scared, but he was unsure of Raichu's true strength.
The rule for battling the practical skills teacher was that the teacher used one Pokémon, while the challenger could use three.
In a two-on-one, Satoru had a high chance of winning.
He would get the Ability Patch from the system and points from the school.
In high school, the point system was a crucial evaluation standard, reflecting a student's academic performance and achievements. The number of points often represented a student's overall capabilities.
Of course, the points at Niji-no-Hane Academy weren't just for measuring grades; they were also a form of currency. Students could exchange points for various useful items or special privileges, which even included the right to participate in the High School League.
This was because the High School League had a vast number of participants with varying skill levels. To ensure the fairness and quality of the event, the academy allowed students to use points to buy entry privileges, thereby filtering for trainers who were both skilled and well-prepared.
If one person couldn't gather enough points, they could also form a team to participate, but the team size was limited to 10 people, and each member had to win a certain number of matches.
[Umm... From what I can see, Host's chances of winning are one thousand percent. After all, I like you, so I see you through rose-tinted glasses.(..o?_?o..)]
"You're being weird again, aren't you? Fine, I'll just go myself."
Ignoring Furiko's ramblings, Satoru focused his gaze on the teacher. He turned to Anon, who was spraying a Potion on her Eevee.
"Anon, the teacher looks really bored."
"Eh... Um, but aren't all practical skills teachers like that? We should be glad he isn't sick and having his class taken over by another teacher."
Chihaya Anon was momentarily stunned, her eyes filled with confusion.
However, in her line of sight, Satoru didn't respond. Instead, he cheerfully walked up to the practical skills teacher, looking exceptionally pleased.
At that moment, the teacher was humbly stroking his Tauros's head, not noticing.
To face a humble teacher and a powerful Tauros, not by running away, but by approaching—how fearsome!
What is he planning to do?
Anon tilted her head, a bit puzzled.
"Teacher, can I have a battle with you?"
Oh, so he wants a battle~ Huh???!!!
Suddenly, Chihaya Anon's grey eyes widened, and she even stopped spraying the Potion.
Challenging a teacher just a month into the school year? Wasn't that just asking for a beating?
Did his ego get inflated after winning against a small fry like me?
As soon as he said it, a few restless students started chuckling, filling the training field with a cheerful atmosphere.
Satoru ignored them. He actually wanted to laugh.
My dear classmates, I'm about to battle. You'd better watch closely!
In truth, winning or losing wasn't the most important thing. What mattered was getting a clear understanding of his own strength. Besides, if he didn't accept the challenge now, he might never get another chance.
Hearing this, the teacher looked up, his gaze meeting Satoru's.
When the eyes of two trainers meet, it's a signal for a battle.
"Asama-kun, is it? Alright then, let's have a battle."
The teacher had already sensed the fighting spirit welling up inside Satoru, so without any further ado, he led him to a standard battlefield.
Previously, a student had underestimated the teacher's strength and faced him, only to be惨惨败北 (miserably defeated) in a one-on-three battle.
"Eheheh~ This is gonna be good."
Many students' eyes were drawn over, eager to witness that exciting scene again.
However, Satoru was different. He had deep faith in his Raichu and Froakie. It's just that, if possible, he didn't want to get involved in such a showy opportunity.
What he wanted was to battle a teacher going all out.
But Miss Furiko's reward was just too good.
[Hmph! These annoying brats, they don't believe in my Host. In the future, I'll have Host screw them all... no, that would be cheating. I'll just buy some guys to screw them instead. ( ̄^ ̄)]
This system's brain really is broken.
Satoru couldn't help but think that something was missing up there.
He didn't dwell on it. He focused on the teacher in front of him and took out a Poké Ball.
He could feel the intense gazes of everyone around him. He had already adapted to this kind of pressure, mentally preparing himself for the upcoming tournament.
While others were still preparing for the High School League, Satoru was already preparing for the Conference!
Go for it... Asama-kun!
Chihaya Anon felt a subtle unease in her heart. She didn't think he could win, but her kind heart wholeheartedly hoped that Satoru would.
Asama-kun... he seemed to win his battle against Chihaya-san in just a few moves, right?
I really want him to teach me.
Takamatsu Tomori hugged her Piplup, her eyes filled with a bit of hope and concern.
The teacher glanced at him, a faint, elegant smile on his face, as if in a warm response. Satoru gave a slightly awkward laugh, a few drops of sweat trickling down his forehead, as if to punctuate his nervousness.
Though it was purely from awkwardness. Just a nervous sweat emoji moment.
[Go! Go! Go! Show them what we're made of o(>ω<)o]
It wasn't just his classmates; even Furiko was like this. When it came to watching a show, these people were all over the top, with non-stop applause and encouragement.
The teacher raised his Poké Ball.
"You know that you get 500 points for beating a teacher, right? Is that why you're doing this? If so, I won't be holding back!"
"Go, Tauros!"
Under the blazing sun, the teacher threw a Poké Ball without hesitation. It spun rapidly in the air, and in an instant, a Tauros appeared on the battlefield.
So passionate...
Then I must respond in kind!
"No! I challenged you because I want to defeat you!"
Satoru wore a look of utter confidence as he threw his own Poké Ball.
"Froakie, I choose you!"
The Poké Ball traced a beautiful arc through the air before landing on the ground. A vibrant Froakie leaped out.
"Kero!"
