People in the elven world attach great importance to the New Year, but they usually clean up at home, then go to nearby shrines and temples at night to wait for the New Year's bell to ring, and then go home to sleep.

Because of Miyazaki Takashi, the Ryuichi family had to spend this year's New Year in this distant city of Zijin, and naturally there was no way to clean up anything.

On the night of December 31, the family waited for the New Year's bell to ring at the largest temple in Zijin City.

People then go back to their homes, go to bed, and wait for the next morning to wake up and share their dreams with their families, in order to speculate on the trends of the new year.

In this way, very plainly, the dragon once passed the first year of coming to this world.

Nothing to say all night......

The next day, Long got up early in the morning.

"Good morning, baby."

He sent a message to Misa, who was far away in Kanto for the New Year.

"Good morning."

Mei Sha replied with a confused voice, apparently having just woken up.

The young couple chatted for a while, and then Ryuichi was dragged out of bed by Mayu, who broke into the room.

"Brother, are you still going to the Battle Tower today?" While eating breakfast, Mayu asked with a worried face.

In the past two days, the dragon has been running towards the battle tower in Zijin City day by day.

Perhaps because of the approaching end of the year, this famous battle tower of Hoenn gave Ryuichi a rather depressed feeling.

Unlike ordinary gyms and schools, the Battle Tower tests the trainer's own command ability and combat level.

The sprites used by all of them are officially provided, and their strength is very close, so if you want to win consecutive victories, you completely depend on the trainer's knowledge of the various elves and their own command ability.

However, whether this kind of battle tower is famous or not depends entirely on the organizer's grasp of the strength of the reserve elves and the average level of the participants.

Anyway, Long Yi hadn't encountered any powerful opponents in the past two days, which made this Zijin battle tower seem a bit exaggerated.

Long Yi originally wanted to say yes, but after glancing at his sister, his heart softened, and when the words came to his mouth, he changed his words: "I don't go today, what's wrong?" ”

"Can you accompany me to a place later?"

"Yes."

"Yay—"

"Ahem." Takashi Miyazaki, the head of the family, pretended to cough.

Mayu stuck out her tongue mischievously and buried her head in the bowl to eat.

After breakfast, Mayu couldn't wait to take Ryuichi's hand and wanted to go out.

Takashi Miyazaki originally wanted to scold him, but he didn't say it when he thought that this year was the first day of the new year.

"Then we're out of the house, Dad, and ......" Ryuichi glanced at Mieko, and at the moment the eyes of the other three people in the room were all on him, "Mom." ”

"Okay, okay." Mieko cried with joy.

Takashi Miyazaki sighed, shook Mieko's hand, looked at Ryuichi with complicated eyes, and said, "Go ahead, pay attention to safety, don't cause trouble." ”

"Okay." Ryuichi took his sister Mayo's hand and walked out of the door, and the moment the door closed, there was a faint sound of muffled crying behind him.

Mayu looked very happy, and her round face was like a blooming sunflower.

Walking out of the Zijin Hotel, Long Yi stopped and looked at his sister beside him: "Say, Mayu, where do you want to take me." ”

"Hehe, I know I can't hide it from my brother." Mayu smiled and hugged Ryuichi's arm coquettishly, "Actually, it's a new friend of mine, she said that her brother is a very good trainer, and then I told her that my brother is too, but she doesn't believe it, so she ......"

"So you want to pull me over and play her brother?" Ryuichi made up for the unfinished words.

Long Yi didn't ask how he got this new friend, and the relationship between the little girls always came very quickly.

"Hmm!" Mayu nodded heavily.

"And by the way, let's compare, whose brother is more powerful, isn't it?" Long Yi said again.

Mayu was a little embarrassed at this time, blushing and lowering his head, and said softly 'um'.

"Okay, I promised."

Although it's a joking comparison between little girls, if you can make your sister really happy, Ryuichi doesn't mind having an elf battle.

"yes-I know that my brother is the best~"

Mayu hugged Ryuichi and kissed him the face.

"Let's go, let's go, I've made an appointment with her to meet in the park."

This park is not far from the Grand Hotel Violet, just a few hundred meters away. It was because of this that Mayu was able to make friends with that little girl.

The brother and sister held hands and walked to the park with easy steps.

The size of this park is not large, in the center is a small artificial lake, around which a path is paved, next to flat grass and some trees, of course, all now bare.

Since it was the first day of the new year, there were not many people in the park, and Long Yiyi saw a man and a woman standing by the lake at a glance.

The woman is about the same age as Mayu, wearing an orange down jacket, earmuffs, gloves, but a black miniskirt and trousers on the bottom, and small red leather shoes on her feet.

The man should be a little older than himself, in his early twenties, with a small flat head, even in the middle of winter, he only wears a black sweater and a brown leather jacket, and the lower body is casual trousers.

"Mayuki! Here and here! The girl waved her hand and said hello loudly, as the eyes of the man next to her fell on Ryuichi.

It's a rather stressful and scrutinizing gaze.

Mayu and Ryuichi walked over quickly.

"Oni, this is my brother Ryuichi~"

"This is my brother, Kazuno!"

The two little girls made a brief introduction.

Ryuichi looked at the man named Ichino.

"Hello, my name is Ryuichi Miyazaki, and my sister has caused you trouble." Long Yi stretched out his hand.

The reason why he promised his sister to come was also a little bit to see if her new friend was a serious person.

"I'm here, my name is Jingda Kazuno, and I'm Ouna's brother." The other party stretched out his hand and shook it with Long Yi.

Long Yi used a little force, but he didn't expect that this man who called himself Jingtian Kazuno had a lot of strength.

The two of them may have just wanted to test it at first, but the strength they used became greater and greater, and although the expression on their faces could not be seen, then the muscles on their arms were bulging and trembling slightly.

"Awesome." Kazuno Kyoda's hand suddenly shook and forcibly separated from Ryuichi.

"You're not bad either." Dragons together.

This person has practiced!

I thought it was just an ordinary little girl's bragging, at most a little level, but now Long Yi doesn't see it that way.

The physical fitness of ordinary people is not so powerful!

"So, a fight?" Dragons together.

Jingtian Kazuno nodded: "Okay, how about winning or losing a game?" ”

"Okay." Long Yi said he had no opinion.

The two little girls held hands and pushed them aside, each cheering hard for their brother.

Ryuichi and Kazuno Jingda smiled at each other and stepped back a bit.

"Go, Tyrannosaurus!"

Rumble!

The 7-meter-long tyrannosaurus fell into the artificial lake, making waves and roaring, startling the two little girls who had never seen such a ferocious elf.

"Good...... Terrible! Jingtian Ouna's face changed, and she was almost scared to tears.

Mayu was also taken aback, but because it was Ryuichi's elf, and for the sake of face, he pretended to be calm and said, "That'...... Of course! This is my brother's elf! ”

"This tyrannosaurus ......" Kazuno Sadano observed, silently put the Poké Ball in his hand back, and then took out another one.

"Go, Swamp Monster!"

The giant swamp monster with a height of 1.5 meters landed in front of Kazuno Jingtian, and the huge difference in size made Ou Na lose confidence at once.
