Blackie is also a Pokémon that symbolizes the night and the moon, so he sometimes goes out to see the moon. Although not a full moon, they may want to see the moon floating beautifully.

When Kem covered Sirona and the others with a towel blanket, he put on his jacket.

"I'll be there for a while, I'll be back shortly, but if anything happens, please let me know."

"Yes.

Kem left the villa with Blakey.

"Quiet"

There was no sound on the beach except for the sound of the waves and the footsteps of Kem and others.

The beach is lively during the day, and at night it becomes quiet and comfortable.

After a short walk, I sat down on the beach. Blackie sat next to him as well, looking up at the sky.

I heard faint laughter. Guests at nearby residences are definitely having a banquet.

The moonlight reflected off the surface of the sea illuminated the faces of Cam and Blakey.

After a while, I heard footsteps approaching. When I turned my face to that side, there was a young man in a black hat with long green hair. I don't know if it's about the same age as Kem. He had a planet-like pendant around his neck and what looked like a Rubik's Cube hanging from his waist.

"Hello, what a good night."

The young man said to Cam.

"Ahh

Kem replied cautiously.

"Are you a Pokémon trainer?"

"Nope."

"Yes. What do you think? I'd like to talk to you for a while. ”

I don't understand the young man's intentions. Judging by the sound and atmosphere, there seems to be no malice, but it may also just be cleverly hidden.

"Okay, but who are you?"

"I'm just a Pokémon trainer"

Kem decided he didn't want to call himself and became a little more cautious.

However, Xiao Hei beside him did not show any panic. Blackie is not shy, but sensitive to people's malice. The fact that Blackie wasn't vigilant doesn't mean that his approach was malicious.

Seeing Xiao Hei like this, the young man smiled lightly.

"Xiao Hei trusts you very much."

The young man sat down beside Xiao Hei and said so.

"It's like thank goodness."

"We trust each other. It's a very good relationship. ”

"Huh. Thank you"

I don't know what the purpose is. If you think about what you're going to talk about, then it's close to small talk. However, since Kem has no ill will towards us, his alert level is not fixed.

The young man looked at Kem and gently stroked Blackie's head.

"It's a rare Pokémon from the United States, and besides, your pronunciation seems to be a little different from the locals, maybe you're from another region?"

"Ahh From the Sinnoh region. “

"You've come all the way from afar.

Is it just a strange guy?

Although it was rude, Kem could only have this impression of the young man now.

If the story continues at the pace of the young man, it seems that no matter how much time passes, it will not be possible to let go of caution, so Kem decides to cut the story.

"So? Why do you bother to call me? I don't think you're really just trying to talk. ”

"Why?

The youth turned his gaze to the sea.

"Can you listen to me for a minute?"

"As long as you listen"

"Thank you. I had a dream, but I chose the wrong path to make it happen. ”

The young man said sadly.

"In the process of going down the wrong path, a lot of unfortunate people and Pokémon appeared. I don't want that kind of world. ”

"Now, I'm making up for that. Pokémon that were separated from someone who was important to me because of me were sent to that person. That's what I can do to make up for it. “

"Really"

The young man did not give details.

That's why I don't listen to Kem either.

"I'm walking around the place to do what I can, and I just came here recently, and I happened to see a good-looking trainer while walking, and I couldn't help but shout out to him. It's gone. ”

"Is it really unplanned for you to talk to me?"

"I'm sorry, but your eyes resemble 'him.'"

"Strange Guy"

"Maybe so. So I think I made a mistake. ”

"I don't know"

Then the smartphone in Kem's pocket vibrate. When I looked at the screen, a message from Shirona appeared. When I looked at the displayed time, it unexpectedly took a lot of time, so I received a worrying message from Sirona.

Tell them where you are now and you'll be back soon, then put your smartphone back in your pocket.

"Are you going now?"

"Oh. I think I've been around for too long. ”

"Understood. Thank you for being by my side, even if it's just for a short time. ”

"It's for a walk. And it's special, because Xiao Hei seems to like you a little. ”

"I see, thank you, Blackie. Your husband is a very nice person. ”

Hearing the young man's words, Xiao Hei cried softly, as if to say that this was a matter of course.

Seeing Heiki, the young man smiled and turned to Kem.

"I feel like I can see you again."

“… Ahh

"If you have a chance, let's meet again, when the time comes, I have something I want you to ask me, I want to hear what you have to say."

"It depends on the content"

"I don't mind. See you later. ”

"It's getting late, be careful, go home."

"Yes"

The young man turned away from Kem.

"I don't know your name at all."

Until the end, the young man did not say his name.

He's a young man who exudes mystery, but he doesn't really do anything about it, just talks and leaves.

"Do you want to go home?"

After Kem finished saying this to the little black under his feet, he turned and walked towards the villa.

And then there's Sirona with a hoodie draped over her shoulders. He wore a poncho-shaped shirt over a thick tank top.

"Why, you came all the way to pick me up?"

"I'm worried because you're coming home late."

"It's not good. I don't think it's been that long. ”

"Okay, by the way, who was next to you just now?"

"No, ah, no, what shall I say?"

It's hard to call them acquaintances, and you can't call them friends. It's just that they met, and the other party talked about various things one-sidedly. He doesn't look like a bad guy, and in fact Blackie is not wary of him at all, but calling him a friend is obviously different. Kem also didn't know much about the young man, so he didn't know how to explain it.

"There's something I've been talking to, so I've said a little bit."

“？ That's all? ”

"That's it, just talk a little."

I can't say much more, because it's true. I didn't talk too much about what I was talking about.

"Hmm"

Shirona looked disgruntled. Now that you are asleep, it is okay to go out for a walk alone. However, Sirona didn't seem to be very happy with the other people during that time.

"You make friends with strangers while I sleep."

"It's hard to say that we got along well, and at the end of the day I didn't even know his name."

"I also want to go on a beach date with Kem."

"You did it yesterday."

"I want to do more. I've only dated a few times so far."

Sirona, dressed in champion and archaeologist sandals, doesn't have much time to rest. Helplessly, because we're just starting out, the absolute number itself is small, but that's why I want to cherish that little bit of time.

"It's still early.

Kem has no hobby of dating a man who doesn't even know his name.

From Kem's point of view, the content of the conversation didn't look like they were on good terms, but Sirona didn't know that. Maybe that's why it looks the way it is.

"Hmm"

"Stop being stubborn, next time."

Kem patted him lightly on the head and smiled wryly.

"Let's go somewhere in Raymond City"

"Okay.

It's clear that you don't agree.

Even for Kem, it's not a good idea to hurt Sirona's mood here.

I thought about what to do, but couldn't come up with a good plan. It would be nice to be able to walk around and chat like yesterday, but it's getting late, so it's better to get home.

Bai Nai was a little surprised by Kem's idea.

"I see. Is there anything I can do to help? “

“？”

"Anything goes. I will do my best. Even if I'm not here, I'll do what I'm told. ”

Truth be told, this is the only move that Kem, who is not used to dealing with women, can do. It's simple, but it's the only action he can take in his head.

"Anything,"

Hearing this, Bai Nai thought for a moment.

All sorts of things come to mind, but let's be honest, Kem isn't bad at it. It's like Sirona's selfishness. Sirona thought she could at least do something that even Kem could easily do.

"Then"

"Yes"

"Yes!"

"Yes?"

Sirona spread out her hands. Seeing Sirona, Kem tilted his head.

“？”

"Crunch"

"Oh, I see"

"Bad?"

"No, it's okay."

Kem hugs Sirona.

They are so close that they can hear each other's heartbeats and body temperatures, and feel each other's presence more intensely.

"Warm..."

"Oh yes"

The touch and smell of Shirona are more intense.

"My heart is beating wildly"

"You're very much like each other."

There is not much difference in height between the two people. As a result, their voices are heard closer than usual because their faces are close together.

"Hey, hug me"

"Ahh

Keim went the extra mile for this. It was with a strong feeling that I poured power into my arms and made the two bodies one.

"Thank you, that's enough"

Hearing Sirona say this, Kaim let go of his arm and let Sirona go.

Bai Nai's face was slightly red, and he looked into Kem's eyes and said.

"Keim"

"Yes?"

"Loved it"

"Oh, me too."

Shirona was pleased with Kem's words and took his hand.

"I'm sorry, I went out and made trouble."

"Okay"

On the contrary, I thought it was a perk, but I didn't say it.

"Let's go home, we're all waiting."

"Oh yes"

Putting Xiao Hei back on the ball, the two walked towards the villa hand in hand.

Two shadows, illuminated by the moonlight, receded from the sand, and soon only the sound of the waves remained on the beach.

And when Gadelia witnesses their return from the events on the beach and the second girls' party, Sirona is also questioned, but that's another story.

City of Raymond

Gear station

When I got off the train and out of the gear station, it was packed with people.

I visited the city of Raimon. It is a city purely for fun, and there are facilities throughout the city for people to enjoy.

The group visited the city of Raimon as tourists.

"It's amazing, I've never seen such a lively city."

Bai Nai involuntarily let out a sound of admiration.

There is no other town in the Sinnoh region that specializes in "enjoyment" like this. Since the Ichishu region itself is a famous tourist destination, the idea of turning the city itself into such a tourist destination may also be born.

"Its specialization direction is different from that of Yuanzhu City in the city capital."

"More than half of the city is like an amusement park, and it's moving in a different direction than the historically developed city."

The city itself is huge, with stadiums, concert halls, amusement park-like roller coasters, and even a Ferris wheel, but it also has other facilities.

"So, time is limited, let's hurry up. Gadelia and Kem and I are going to see the clothes, and Alice and Semi are going to the amusement park, right? “

"Yes! I want to ride a roller coaster! ”

"It's a place I can't normally come to, so I can play with Alice."

"Alright, let's meet around noon and meet in front of this gear station."

"Yes! Come on! “

"Ah, wait a minute! See you soon! ”

Sending away the back of Shikimi, who was chasing Alice, the three of them began to move.

"So, where are you going?

The two are no strangers to the Ichishu region, but they are newcomers to the city of Raymond. Therefore, unfamiliar with the area, the current situation is that not much homework has been done through the survey. Even if it was decided on the spot, there would be no problem because it was just shopping, but Gardelia said that there would be no problem because she would investigate the matter.

Gadelia said this to herself, and pulled a pill from the bag that Cam was carrying.

"Don't worry, I've researched it."

Gardelia grimaced as she showed off her tablet.

When looking at the screen, several clothing stores are displayed, and it seems that Gardelia has picked them up.

Gardelia then handed the tablet to Kem.

"So, Kem, please guide me."

"Uh, me?"

"Of course not? I'm the winner and you're the loser. ”

"Hehe, I see, damn, why should I protect you?"

Kem muttered and sighed, picked up the tablet and began to move.

In addition, Cochran said "If it were Kem-sama and Sirona, I could put Gadelia in charge" and then gave up his duties, and Kem sighed inwardly.

I thought that Gardelia, one of the four heavenly kings of the Ichishu region, would be eye-catching when she walked around the city, but I was able to move smoothly without being noticed. Sirona wasn't well-known either, but she was so good-looking, I thought it would cause some kind of commotion, but that didn't happen.

Gadelia asked Cam if he had such a thought on his face.

"Isn't it strange that you're not in the spotlight?"

When Gadelia heard this, she seemed to read Cam's mind.

"yes. Bai Nai may not be as well-known in the Ichishu region, but you are different. Honestly, I thought it might cause some panic, but"

"I think so. If it's normal. ”

"If it's normal?"

"Because I use my mental power to make it harder for people to see me"

"For Convenience"

"It took me a lot of effort to do it, but"

A supernatural force so powerful that he was banned from Pokémon Battles. I can't imagine how painful it is to control it. In the world, there are so-called psychics with supernatural abilities in Zara. But few psychics are as powerful as Gardelia.

"Miss Sirona also played a role in controlling this force"

"yes, it's nostalgic now."

Since Gadelia's abilities are unable to control her emotions, she starts by controlling her emotions first. She's competitive in her own right, so it wasn't easy, but with the enthusiastic teamwork of Sirona and Cochrane, I found the key to controlling her abilities, and it's a great memory.

"I wonder if you've been dating Miss Sirona any longer?"

"You've known Kem since you knew him."

"That's right, Kaim."

"Ah, what?"

"That means I've been with Miss Sirona a little longer."

Kem doesn't hate losing enough to burn his fighting spirit because of something like this. Gardelia's encouragement did not reach Cam either.

"The connection between people is not about the length of time, but what matters is what you do with that person and what kind of relationship you have with him."

Gardelia's eyes widened as she looked at Cam's expression, which didn't change at all, while Sirona smiled. He won't say anything until Kam meets Sirona. Working with Sirona for almost three years has allowed Kem to grow not only as a coach, but also as a person. It's a word I can understand.
