Chapter 26 - Sinnoh Champion Cynthia (Please Vote!)

Hey guys, I just launched an awesome fic called Naruto: Courting Death In The Ninja World, and it is one of the funniest books I've read.

Along with the Pokémon book I am translating, they are one of the greatest books. I only start translating a book after reading atleast 70-80 chapters and liking it. 

Since I do it all manually, this shit takes a lot of time, so I would appreciate it if you guys check out my Patreon. Thanks.

--------------------------------

Sinnoh region, Lily of the Valley Island.

As the Sinnoh League "Lily of the Valley Conference" venue, the island possessed world-class battle facilities.

Trainers from worldwide, conquering the Sinnoh League would compete here for the Conference Champion throne.

Once becoming Conference Champion, one is qualified to challenge League Elite Four, even the Elite Four's superior: League Champion.

Standing at Sinnoh League's peak was a blonde beauty from Celestic Town: Cynthia!

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Sinnoh League Master Division battle scene!"

The announcer's passionate voice echoed through the venue.

"Today's match is Sinnoh League's Psychic-type Elite Four Lucian challenging for the League Champion seat!"

"Will we welcome a new champion or defend the champion throne? Let's wait and see!"

Thump, thump;

Light blue long hair, wearing a burgundy suit, and brown leather shoes.

An elegantly refined man holding a hardcover book, hand in pocket, walked from the contestant tunnel into the field.

Cheers and screams rose and fell.

With a crisp 'Snap', Lucian closed his book, adjusting his blue-rimmed glasses, showing an amiable smile at the camera.

"Mr Lucian has appeared!" the announcer shouted.

"This is his third challenge for the champion throne this year!"

That wasn't necessary to mention... Lucian sweated, pushing his blue-framed glasses.

Just then, Lucian's gaze fell on the graceful figure in the contestant tunnel.

Click, Click.

High heels tapped.

Each step unhurried, precisely landing when screams peaked loudest.

Cheers rose and fell like tides, intensifying!

"Sinnoh Champion!"

"Miss Cynthia!!"

When footsteps stopped, everyone's breathing seemed to pause momentarily.

Dazzling golden long hair cascaded down like sunlight.

Compared to those deep, light-grey pupils, all things paled slightly.

Wearing a black windbreaker, pointed high heels, Cynthia tucked her ear-side straight waist-length golden hair, her exquisite face showing a faint smile.

"Sorry for the wait." Cynthia nodded.

"That you accepted the challenge already honours me greatly."

Lucian placed his hand on his chest. "Hopefully, this time I can defeat your Garchomp."

"You can try." Cynthia smiled slightly.

The announcer roared, "Both sides positioned, match imminent!"

"Lucian's first Pokémon appeared, Bronzong with exceptional resistances!"

"Cynthia's side sent out her invincible Garchomp!"

Two top-tier Pokémon simultaneously appeared on the field.

Storm clouds gathered. Spectators gasped collectively.

Covered in sharp scales, thorns protruding, a spindle-shaped dragon tail, and missile-like bones on the head sides.

Blood-red-eyed Garchomp crossed its intimidating dual scythes, erupting in earth-shattering roars!

"Gaaooo!!"

Bronzong floated on the field. Deep bell tolls resonated like grand bells, solemn and dignified.

Battle erupted instantly!

"Garchomp, Fire Blast!"

"Bronzong, Block!"

Garchomp opened its gaping maw. Surging flames roared out, instantly twisting space with heat waves, triggering deafening explosions!

Boom!

Bronzong 'dong' crashed onto the field. The deployed Light Screen was completely melted by flames, but dangerous blue light glowed from ancient patterns!

Lucian swung his arm, shouting, "Trick Room!"

Strange light flashed on the field. A cage-like space appeared from nothing, completely enveloping Bronzong and Garchomp!

The announcer roared, "Under Trick Room, Garchomp's speed advantage vanishes!"

Cynthia's mouth curved slightly. "Garchomp, Dragon Rush!"

Under everyone's shocked gazes, Garchomp glided like a supersonic fighter jet.

As white airflow trailed from its tail, those invincible dual scythes directly tore Trick Room apart!

Lu Ye's expression was strange watching the video of two Elite Four-level trainers battling.

You're kidding, right?

Dragon Rush could even shred Trick Room?!

Cheating wasn't done like this!

Why should I even be a trainer? Better pack up and go home to farm!

Gastly also looked dazedly at the video.

Why was this different from the Pokémon battles it previously understood?

Lu Ye glanced at Gastly beside him. "Any thoughts?"

"Sssskah..."

"Self-doubting?"

"Kekeke!"

Gastly shuddered violently, widening its eyes enormously.

Its eyes filled with an incredibly excited expression.

So Pokémon battles were this thrilling!!

This video exposed Gastly to brand-new battle domains, immediately finding its fighting goal!

Lu Ye thought Gastly was frightened, consolingly patting its head.

"It's okay. With me here, bullying ordinary Masters in the future won't be a problem."

Seeing these two illustrious Elite Four trainers in the video, Lu Ye felt somewhat moved.

But Lu Ye had self-awareness.

Though his commanding level wasn't weak, even quite strong, breeding Pokémon was a massive challenge.

Money, resources, connections... even with the system, becoming Elite Four definitely wasn't overnight.

Wanting to be like Red, reaching Champion level within one debut year was pure daydreaming.

But watching Gastly's excited expression, Lu Ye smiled, poking Gastly's black mist.

"Whatever... even if not becoming a trainer, for you, burning money is worthwhile!"

Not wanting to be a trainer didn't conflict with breeding Gastly.

After all, Gastly had extreme battle enthusiasm. Lu Ye planned to satisfy its wishes.

Once it lost someday, Gastly would probably recognise reality.

"You punk, you really think we can become World Champions!" Lu Ye laughed and cursed.

"Kekeke! (′▽`〃)"

"Alright, time to stream. First, let me exchange the Protect Move Machine for you!"

Opening the streaming software, the stream immediately flooded with loyal fans.

"Teacher Lu, you finally returned!"

"Been gone nearly a week. You won't even take easy money?"

"Teacher Lu's streaming, my youth has returned!"

"Can't help it, finals made courses tight." Lu Ye said coolly. "Need scholarships!"

"Don't tell me someone thinks Teacher Lu is a model student?"

"Ten-year old fan, Teacher Lu is Magic City University's academic star!"

"???"

"Damn, really? Streamers have such high education nowadays?"

"Thanks to 'How Does Bulbasaur SubToxic' for the rocket... Once you send rockets, we're friends."

"But today let's do something different."

Lu Ye opened the team editor, dragging Gengar into the team.

"Today, bringing everyone Perish Song team teaching!"

"???"

"What dirty tactic is this now!"

"Stop talking, serve the food quick, starving!"

The game interface rotated. Lu Ye matched an international friend from Sinnoh League, ID "Cabbage Ice Cream."

The opponent's character image was a cartoon mascot, a three-headed blonde loli, extremely cute.

"Damn, opponent's so adorable!" Lu Ye exclaimed.

Glancing again at the opponent's ID, confirming he hadn't collided with any top trainer, Lu Ye began commanding seriously.
