The next morning.
The Pidgeotto in the forest took its Pidgey to forage, soaring freely in the sky. The purple Nidoran♂ and blue Nidoran♀ stayed in the grass, whispering to each other like a couple in love. Oddish's leaves were exposed, while its body burrowed into the cool ground to avoid the sun. During the day, it would bury its root-like feet in the ground, remaining mostly motionless. Only the leaf part would extend out, making it difficult to spot, and it was often mistaken for a weed and pulled out. As morning arrived, the forest became lively, playing its own symphony.
In the room, Kaito stretched, got out of bed, and the soft sunlight streamed through the window, illuminating his handsome face. Aside from the large Arcanine lying on the floor, there was only an indentation on the bed. Clearly, Gardevoir had gone to make breakfast.
Hmm… why does it feel like a virtuous wife and loving mother?
Kaito shook off the random thoughts in his head and vigorously rubbed the big dog's head. "Time to get up, doggy! Let's go eat breakfast!"
"Woof, woof!" Arcanine responded, his tail thumping against the floor.
Downstairs, as expected, Machamp and Gardevoir were busy in the kitchen.
"Niiii-keh."
"Shana~"
Seeing Kaito wake up, Machamp and Gardevoir greeted him together, then brought breakfast to the table.
"Woof." Arcanine licked its lips, wagging its fluffy tail behind it.
"Alright, alright, I know you're hungry." Kaito threw a peeled hard-boiled egg into Arcanine's mouth, which he swallowed in one gulp. This was an Unfezant egg. These were not eggs for hatching, but simply eggs produced for consumption, much like common chicken eggs. Unfezant eggs had a rich flavor and contained various nutrients. Happy Ranch raised Unfezant, and they usually produced many eggs.
As usual, Kaito ate breakfast while scrolling on his phone. He clicked it open.
His first video now had seven million views! The second and third videos were similar, both with four million views! This is what happens when something goes viral. The first video only had one million views overnight, but the subsequent two had four million views overnight. Now he could really make a lot of money just by posting videos.
"Sigh," Kaito muttered to himself, "When money comes too easily, it suddenly doesn't feel like much anymore."
He clicked on the comments.
Master Master I Love You: Master is truly terrifying, releasing two top-tier strategies for two consecutive days!
Still Water and Shade: Master must be a reclusive tactical grandmaster. I heard that our country's high-ranking officials searched everywhere but couldn't find Master.
Brother Add Friend for Good Looks: Master, please accept my friend request, I can do any pose.
Among these comments, one received an exceptional number of likes and replies: "You Lian Yue: Master, please accept my friend request."
You Lian Yue? Kaito recalled. She seems to be a proud daughter of heaven, just as famous as Long Yuling?
Kaito was silent. He vaguely foresaw a future where countless celebrities would apply to add him as a friend in the comment section.
He checked his Fame Value again. "Fame Value: 1500." Fifteen hundred, huh. It seemed to be roughly calculated based on viewership.
Farm Inspection and New Pokémon
Kaito shook his head and finished his breakfast. He took out a Pokémon Egg—the Champion-potential Bagon awarded yesterday. He bought an incubation device from the system, placed the Pokémon Egg inside, and put it in his room. If the reward wasn't extracted, it would remain in an unhatched state, so he had to take it out.
After taking care of the Pokémon Egg, Kaito went out to check on his farm.
First, he arrived at the cattle and sheep pens. The sheep pen was noticeably several times larger than the cattle pen. Inside the cattle pen, four Miltank were lazily lying down, sunbathing.
The sheep pen, however, was much livelier. The bleating of the Mareep rose and fell. At a glance, clusters of light yellow clouds were moving about. The Mareep were quite lively; some were munching on grass, others were lying on the ground sunbathing. Still others kept jumping over their companions lying on the ground, playing a hurdle race.
"Mareep~" Seeing Kaito approach, a Mareep curiously came closer and rubbed against his leg.
Kaito bent down and stroked the Mareep's head; the fur was incredibly soft, like touching a ball of cotton candy. It felt very nice. Pressing it gently, he could even feel its elasticity. Then, the light bulb-shaped orb on the Mareep's tail quietly lit up, and seeing this, Kaito quickly withdrew his hand.
"Hoppy?" Bunnelby was curious and then touched the Mareep with its hand.
Crackling! A series of lightning flashes passed, and the current spread through Bunnelby's body, causing a tingling sensation.
"Hoppy?!" Bunnelby quickly withdrew its hand, shook it, and then frantically retreated, pressing its back against the fence, looking at the Mareep with vigilant eyes. A bad Pokémon had hurt it!
"Mareep?" The Mareep shook its head, ignoring the highly alert Bunnelby.
"Bunnelby, the Mareep didn't mean to hurt you; it just has static electricity on its body, and you happened to touch it."
"Hoppy?" Bunnelby seemed to understand, scratching the back of his head and apologizing to the Mareep.
"Mareep~" The sheep Pokémon didn't take it to heart.
Leaving the sheep pen, Kaito then went to the fish farm.
At the fish farm, Machamp was holding a large bucket of feed and throwing it into the pond. The main ingredients of the feed were Gungun Bean (a plausible localized food item) and startling algae. Both are favorites of Water-type Pokémon.
The system notified: Task Completed: Daily Feeding of Farm Pokémon. Task Reward: Ten Net Balls.
In the pond, plump Krabby eagerly vied for food, splashing up waves.
Kaito curiously looked to the other side. A goofy Psyduck had somehow entered the fish farm, possibly by squeezing through a gap under the fence. The Psyduck took slow steps, approaching the pond, and then... suddenly extended both hands, scooped up a large handful of feed, and stuffed it into its mouth, making its cheeks bulge.
The Krabby, about to enjoy their meal, froze, then swung their large pincers, heavily striking the Psyduck.
"Gah!" The Psyduck cried out in pain, springing up. But the feed in its mouth still hadn't been spit out, and it ran towards Kaito, clutching its large head.
Kaito chuckled. This Psyduck is quite interesting.Since you ate my feed, then become my Pokémon.
The next moment, Bunnelby proactively charged out, its two large ears transforming into propellers, rushing towards the Psyduck like a drill.
Bang!
The Psyduck fell to the ground, gazing at the clear blue sky, its dull eyes filled with Confusion, and its three tufts of hair bent down. What did I just do? What did others do? The sky is so blue, like seawater. Could the sky also be a kind of sea? Are there sky fish in it?
As the Psyduck fell into contemplation, one of the newly acquired Net Balls flew in, precisely capturing it.
Kaito has successfully captured a new, delightfully silly farm worker. His fame is exploding worldwide, and he now has two of the country's "daughters of heaven" pursuing him online. How will he use his heightened Fame Value, and what new secrets will he uncover in the coming days?
