Kaito felt a bit uninspired. He had thought some strong enemy would appear, but it turned out to be just a few small fry, which Arcanine alone could easily handle. Let alone Machamp, even Gardevoir didn't get a chance to act. Thinking about it, it made sense. He only grew Wawangu rice, and only one hundred square meters; it was already quite impressive that it could attract those Pokémon to charge over.
The system provided a definition: Rare Candy: Provides a large amount of experience points, helping Pokémon at a bottleneck advance to the next stage.
Kaito pondered for a moment, then looked at Lili (Machamp) beside him. She looked a bit dejected now. She had originally thought she could show off her skills and test her strength, but she never expected to not even get a chance to act. Machamp had a good habit of training every day, and she might be gradually digesting the residual effects of the Secret Treasure Black Belt. She leveled up again these past two days, now at Level 58.
If Lili reaches Level 59, and then consumes a Rare Candy, will she directly ascend to Level 60 and enter the Quasi-Elite Four-tier? Kaito felt this idea was very feasible. Once Lili reaches Level 59, he will give her the Rare Candy.
For now, he needed to harvest the Wawangu rice.
"Time to harvest the Wawangu rice!"
Bunnelby used its large ears to hold a sickle, cutting down each stalk of Wawangu rice. Machamp wielded two sickles, as if playing a grass-cutting game, transforming into a grain-reaping demon. After a "Blade Storm," the Wawangu rice was precisely cut, without damaging the rice ears above. Gardevoir used Psychic to transport the harvested Wawangu rice into the warehouse and stack it neatly.
Working together, the hundred square meters of Wawangu rice were cleared in a flash. Kaito took this opportunity to sow seeds in the fields Bunnelby had tilled. This time, he planned to plant two types simultaneously: one was Wawangu rice, and the other was Gungun Bean. The seeds were taken from the previously rewarded Seed Pack.
Unlocking Farmland Master
The system notified: Identity Quest: Harvest one hundred square meters of Wawangu rice (100/100). Quest Reward: Ten bags of advanced fertilizer, ten Luxury Balls, Title (Farmland Master).
Farmland Master (Title): When this title is worn, the growth rate of crops on the farm is 1.2 times.
Kaito didn't hesitate and immediately put on this title. His updated profile: Name: Kaito, Age: 18, Unlocked Identities: Farm Owner, Trainer, Special Abilities: Viridian Power, Existing Titles: Farmland Master, Existing Pokémon: Shiny Gardevoir, Arcanine, Machamp, Leafeon, two Eevee, several Krabby, Mareep..., Fame Value: 1500.
Invisibly, an energy covered the farm, accelerating the growth of all crops planted within it. This could also attract some Pokémon. Kaito nodded in satisfaction.
"The tasks are done. Next up is—lunch!"
Upon hearing about food, the busy Pokémon excitedly anticipated lunch. Kaito wasn't short on money, so the food for the Pokémon was also excellent, including targeted food bought from the system and dishes he cooked himself.
Kaito went to the kitchen and took out a few Slowpoke Tails he had bought from the system. Slowpoke Tails fall off naturally and are rich in fat and mellow in flavor, recognized as one of the most delicious ingredients. He planned to make roasted Slowpoke Tail.
As he prepared it in the courtyard, the Pokémon gathered around, curiously watching Kaito's actions. Aside from Pokémon like Leafeon that don't eat meat, Arcanine, for example, eagerly awaited the roasted result. It would definitely be delicious.
Gourmet Power Unlocked
His hands moved without stopping, and Kaito felt a sudden realization. Making food for Pokémon like this felt like being a Breeder in the Pokémon world.
So, could Breeder be one of his identities? I want to become a Breeder.
The system responded: Desire detected, unlocking new identity: Breeder. Unlocking related quests... Identity Quest: Perform one cooking session. Quest Content: An excellent Breeder must be able to make delicious food. Quest Reward: Gourmet Power.
Gourmet Power: The gourmet food produced can be divided into multiple levels, and high-level gourmet food will have many effects.
Another special ability! Kaito was slightly surprised because he had never heard of this ability. The previous Viridian Power existed in the original work, so he accepted it easily, but this Gourmet Power was different. However, from the news, there were many types of special abilities awakened by humans, not just the few from the original Pokémon work.
He was right, Breeder was also an an identity. What else? Researcher, or perhaps a Professor? A Coordinator like in the Pokémon Contests? Gym Leader might also be possible... Kaito briefly listed several possible identities, perhaps they hadn't been triggered because the conditions hadn't been met yet. He could try them out sometime later.
For now, he needed to finish making lunch.
A moment later. Sizzle—
The tail on the grill sizzled with oil, gradually cooking as it was flipped, presenting an enticing color. This was also a special characteristic of Slowpoke Tail; when cooked, it would display a brilliant, gem-like luster.
An extremely rich meaty aroma soared into the sky, completely enveloping him and the Pokémon. This scent wasn't overly greasy; it even carried a hint of freshness, stimulating the appetite. Streams of oil, clear as water, flowed out, making sizzling sounds. Kaito not only added ordinary seasonings but also some ground berries. As sprinkles of berry powder were scattered over the roasted meat, the rich meaty aroma gained an additional fruity scent, making it irresistible.
The incredibly rich aroma was like a vortex. It rose in a spiral, simultaneously radiating in all directions.
"Woof!" Arcanine frolicked in the yard, seemingly trying to catch the escaping scents, his dog nose constantly sniffing.
"Kaito, this smells so good," Gardevoir (Shana in her thoughts) telepathically communicated. Her beautiful eyes sparkled with delight; even she couldn't help but want to taste it. She hadn't known that Kaito's cooking was so good; he was truly amazing.
"Niiii-keh, niiii-keh." Machamp crossed its lower two arms over its chest, nodding in strong approval. Kaito was someone it had watched grow up, a genius from a young age, capable of succeeding in anything he did.
"Woof woof woof..." The Poochyena, originally outside the yard, ran in one after another, each drooling at the mouth. However, they didn't rush forward; instead, they sat obediently in place, waiting for Kaito to speak before acting.
Kaito's expression remained unchanged. He had thought of this long ago, so he prepared a generous amount, enough for everyone to eat.
Kaito has successfully unlocked the Breeder identity and the mysterious Gourmet Power! Now that he's finished cooking, what effects will his special roasted Slowpoke Tail have on his Pokémon?
