(I feel that it is more convenient to read the new chapter directly than to cover the original chapter, so I will temporarily update the remastered version here.) This part will be deleted when the second volume is opened√) (2018.9.29 Rewritten)

Winter break is fleeting.

- For the other kids in Zhenxinzhen.

After a whole month of soaking in various textbooks, almost learning to doubt life, I finally ushered in the beginning of February - and got the second-to-last "good score".

Holding his report card with a barely passing average score, he looked at the red-crossed test papers on the table of the black-haired boy diagonally in front of him...... Xiao Ye's mood was complicated to describe for a while.

In any case, the thrilling "First Level of a Journey to Another World" has finally come to an end, and the kind teacher did not kick her out of the classroom because of the transfer student's poor grades. The second elementary school life of "Nine-Year-Old Girl" Starry Night officially began.

Zhenxin Town is sparsely populated, and there are only a handful of teachers and students in the only primary school. Since nearly half of the parents sent their children to a better elementary school in the city, there were only four fifth-graders left in the town, except for Xiao Ye.

Ash and Shigeru are "old acquaintances" to visitors from the other world, excluding the information obtained off-screen, and they have also chatted a few words during the winter vacation. The third person's name is Xiaoyun, and she is a lively girl with long emerald green hair. Maybe it's because there is finally a classmate of the same gender in the class, and the girl can't wait to chat with Xiaoye on the first day of school, and the two quickly get acquainted.

As for the last person, I heard that the name is Xiaotian, who applied for a semester leave of absence a while ago, and is now traveling around with his trainer father. Due to his excellent grades, the school happily approved his application for leave of absence after assuring that he would make up for the exams when he returned to school.

According to the laws of the Union, citizens who have reached the age of ten after graduating from primary school are adults and can choose their own future way of life. Continuing to study in secondary school or university is the choice of most people, and it is not uncommon to return to school after a year of travel – after all, not everyone is suitable to become a "special sports student" such as a trainer.

It is said that a few decades ago, there were many outstanding trainers in Zhenxin Town, and many young people went on to become trainers. In recent years, this momentum has diminished considerably, and most of the previous cohorts have chosen to continue their studies.

The fifth-graders from 999 were a bit special - except for one who was not at school for the time being, the other three natives all claimed to be trainers.

"-It's really a great thing to go on adventures with Pokémon and get stronger together!" Ash shouted energetically, "Let's go with each other, so we'll be trainers for the whole grade!"

Initially, when faced with Ash's invitation, Sayo honestly stated that he hadn't decided on a path yet - while the story seen on screen always revolves around a trainer boy with Pikachu, and viewers do have a crush on the profession, it doesn't mean that travelers from other worlds can arbitrarily decide their future based on their preferences.

She remembers her goals and knows where she belongs. As the days of the Pure White Town campus passed, the traveler watched the world in the dark, constantly searching for what he needed. Information, intelligence, channels, methods, when enough information is piled up in front of you, what changes.

That day, the purple-haired girl stared at the glowing computer screen and the advertising words that popped up along with photos of the lush rainforest, and remained silent for a long time.

"Okay. ”

When Ash throws the same question for the fourth time, Saya replies with a smile.

The small campus, which is sparsely populated with students, is somewhat cool, calm and peaceful. The four children learn knowledge together, practice together with Pokémon borrowed from the research institute, and occasionally the two girls are able to watch the regular show "Ash and Shigeru's Fight". The elementary school with insufficient teachers invited Dr. Ohki and his assistant to be the teachers of the Pokémon general knowledge class, and for young people who want to become trainers, the old man in the white coat is always the most popular target.

The pure white town is as peaceful as ever, as if all the outside wind and waves cannot invade it. The four peers who live here have seen the cold of early spring, the green, fat, red and thin of late spring, the wind and rain of early summer, and then—

Step side by side into the scorching red sun of midsummer.

Amid the chirping of insects and the fresh breeze, one day, Dr. Oki called Saya to the research institute.

"Come with me, Saya. I have good things for you. Dr. Oki said this, deliberately revealing a mysterious face.

So Xiao Ye also cooperated with a blank face.

"Don't worry, it's a good thing. Xiao Mao on the side squeezed his eyes at Xiao Ye.

- Speaking of which, Xiao Mao has been smiling since yesterday, and he didn't quarrel when he saw his rival Xiao Zhi. Xiao Ye thought with a wink.

Walking into the innermost room, Dr. Oki cleared his throat and said, "Saya, listen up. Now I'm going to give you an exam, and if you pass it, it means that you have the most basic skills to become a trainer and can graduate from me!"

"Yes, please. Sayo nodded, waiting for Dr. Ohki's explanation.

"That's what the exam is about," Dr. Oki took out a clear glass case from behind his back and stuffed it into Xiao Ye's hand, "this!"

Xiao Ye's eyes widened slightly. Aware of the object's formality, she cautiously took the glass case and looked at the orb that was quietly placed in it.

The surface of the eggshell is a fiery red color full of life.

"Incubate this egg before you set off on your trip, that's the test I'm giving you. Dr. Oki said with a smile, "You've learned the knowledge of raising Pokémon eggs from textbooks, don't let me down." ”

"I see. ”

Looking at the Pokémon egg in contemplation for a moment, Saya solemnly bowed to the smiling old man.

"Thank you, Dr. Ohki. ”

Rather than an exam, Dr. Ohki's behavior is more like giving a Pokémon to Saya in a different direction - after all, the hatching of most types of Pokémon eggs is not a particularly complicated job, and all that is required is the care of the person.

After deciding to "embark on a journey as a trainer", Sayo remembers that Dr. Oki once asked her which of the three initial Pokémon in the Kanto region she liked the most, and the answer Sayo gave at that time was a small fire dragon. Presumably, this is the reason for Dr. Ohki's behavior today.

Most of the children in Shinshin Town know that Dr. Ohki often gives Pokémon eggs in advance to would-be trainers whom he recognizes - Dr. Ohki believes that Pokémon and trainers hatched by the trainers get along day and night, and the relationship is more intimate and tacit in battle. As long as the trainer has enough knowledge and ability to carefully cultivate Pokémon eggs, it is not impossible to get Pokémon in advance.

Later, according to Shigeru, he also got an Eevee egg from Dr. Oki. Presumably, the moon elves who appeared in the story on the other side were Shigeru's original Pokémon.

As for the reason why Ash and Xiaoyun didn't get this treatment, it's also obvious -

Carefully cultivating Pokémon eggs is not for them at all. Dr. Oki was afraid that the two jumping kids who couldn't stay quiet would break the Pokémon eggs.

The knowledge in the textbook clearly tells Saya that the hatching time of Pokémon eggs will be affected by the breath of life of humans, and the closer you get to humans, the faster the hatching time will be. So, from now on, whenever you go out, you will put the fiery Pokémon eggs in your backpack and carry them with you.

The Atlas Traveler's daily routine has one more job to do - regularly check the status of the hatching crate and clean the Pokémon eggs. Only by keeping the environment in which the eggs are kept clean will the Pokémon hatched be healthy.

Under the careful care of Xiao Ye, the fiery red color of the Pokémon eggs became brighter and brighter, and occasionally they would tremble a few times naughtily, presumably not far from the day of hatching.

Zhenxin town behind the mountain, forest.

In the glade of the forest, the large drill-horned rhinoceros roared loudly, and its huge fist slammed down.

On the other side, a white shadow that was very short compared to the horned rhinoceros flashed, and it instantly moved to the left of the horned rhinoceros. A large fist slammed into the ground, rubble splattered, and the air currents from the impact sent the lilac hair flying.

After dodging, step up and whip your legs.

Although the tiny human in front of him is much more slender than himself, the drillhorned rhinoceros does not want to be kicked in the abdomen by a "slender human". Reaching out with his right arm, he parried the incoming flying kick, then turned and forced it back two steps with a tail strike.

The drillhorned rhinoceros lives in a rocky cave next to the forest, and when it leaves its dwelling to walk in the forest, it will occasionally encounter a night of exercise.

It also remembered that in early spring, Saya and Dr. Oki had worked together to heal an injury to its back. The horned rhinoceros does not reject humans, and is naturally very friendly to those who have helped them.

- Until one day, when the purple-haired girl smiled and asked, "Would you like to try it out against me", the drillhorned rhinoceros felt that its head was a little stuck.

Xiao Ye is no more than a nine-year-old human child, only as tall as the waist of a diamond-horned rhinoceros, and his weight is not in the same order of magnitude at all. The drillhorned rhinoceros said that although it didn't hate fighting, it really couldn't do anything to such a fragile human child.

However, the drillhorned rhinoceros soon discovered that his little friend looked short and thin, but he had absolutely nothing to do with the word "vulnerable" - something that the dizzy big guy realized after the first fight.

The strength of the drill-horned rhinoceros is indeed very strong, and a single punch can knock a human out of the afterimage. However, the advantage of strength needs to be based on the fact that "the attack can be implemented", and if the eyes can't see the exact position of the opponent clearly, no amount of strength will be useful.

Night's movement and dodging reminded the drillhorned rhinoceros of wild electric rats jumping up and down in the grass.

Compared to the sturdy Drillhorn Rhinoceros, Nighta's strength is indeed in an absolute weakness, but this does not mean that the Drillhorn Rhinoceros can completely ignore Night's attack. The physical fitness of humans in this world is not much inferior to Pokémon, and Saya is no exception. It hurts to be hit in the vital spot by that little fist, very painful, QAQ.

- So, the drillhorned rhinoceros who likes to fight and the little night who intends to train themselves continue to practice day after day. For those who often meet in the forest, this is also a special form of entertainment.

Sayo is grateful to this big friend. Fighting the powerful Diamondhorn Rhinoceros allowed her to maintain her keen sense of battle while also strengthening her physical fitness. Now that you've decided to embark on a journey as a trainer, it's natural that enhancing your self-preservation skills is also one of the compulsory courses.

And the results of this training are also very remarkable, the current Xiao Ye can already deal with the drill horn rhinoceros for a long time, even if it can't give the opponent effective damage, at least it will not be easily defeated. Of course, compared to the natives of this world, Xiao Ye knew that her abilities were only at the bottom of the level - the Drill Horn Rhinoceros rarely used destructive moves when fighting her, and it was obvious that she had spared her hands out of gentleness, and a certain well-known fighting king in Guandu had overturned the angry Great Rock Serpent with his bare hands.

Combat effectiveness is not at all on an order of magnitude.

Looking at his thin arm, Xiao Ye only felt that there was a long way to go.

Over time, the wild Pokémon in the forest are familiar with Xiao Ya, and there are even some little ones who like to join in the fun, and often come to watch Xiao Ya and the drill horn rhinoceros fight. One man and one beast fought hotly, and the onlookers were also happy. Xiao Ye's incubator was placed on the side of the floppy leaves, standing peacefully in the intermittent sound of impact.

In the glass case, the fiery red Pokémon egg vibrated slightly, revealing a few shallow white rays of light.

====================

Small Theatre:

Diamondhorn Rhinoceros: (tears run) It hurts to be hit in the right place by that little fist, very painful, QAQ.

Sayo: That'...... Actually, my hand hurts a lot, it hurts, QAQ.

Drillhorn: So why do we hurt each other!
