Chapter 492 Poverty limits imagination

...

Lily of the Valley Island is located in the sea to the east of the Sinnoh Region, the center of Sunyshore City and the area of ​​the Sinnoh Alliance Headquarters.

It's not too big, but the facilities are very complete. Several major events in the Sinnoh Region will be held on Lily of the Valley Island.

Lily of the Valley Island's natural environment is quite well protected. From the sky, you can see a large area of ​​green vegetation covering the entire island, and a small mountain standing on it. All artificial buildings and facilities are located on the southern tip of Lily Island of the Valley, close to the sea.

As the plane lands, Natsu and his group of five finally arrive at this bustling island city.

Organizing a large-scale event is certainly not something that can be prepared overnight. It has gone through many links from initial planning, review, publicity, registration and competition.

But the benefits of a big event are clear.

Lily of the Valley Island has gathered a large number of tourists and trainers from all over the world today, which has greatly boosted the economic development of Lily of the Valley Island.

Almost all the hotels, shopping malls and vendors in it have delivered explosive customer growth.

Walking down the bustling street, Chimchar, sitting on Natsu's shoulder, looked around curiously, in his eyes, everything was new.

Lily of the Valley Island doesn't restrict Pokémon, as long as they don't do anything against Lily of the Valley Island's rules.

After all, the Alliance police and even Officer Jenny, who could be seen everywhere, were not to be trifled with.

"We don't need to register, do we?" Natsu couldn't help but ask.

Seeing the main venue of this tournament, beyond the large oval arc-shaped open arena, and the long registration team, Natsu couldn't help but shiver.

This is overkill.

Even though the Alliance has made strict rules for trainers who register for the competition, long queues of registration will still line up from the arena to the commercial street.

Just by looking at the level of excitement, you can tell that the Sinnoh Alliance has done quite a bit of publicity.

Correspondingly, the Sinnoh Alliance must have made a lot of money during this competition.

"Not." She said with a smile.

A group of people who came back alive from different space trials can directly participate in the group stage, and they don't need to register for the preliminary and qualifying rounds, which saves a lot of things.

Hearing this, Natsu quietly relaxed.

The youth tournament had attracted the attention of so many people, it was hard to imagine how lively it would be if the "Lily of the Valley Master Competition" truly determined the direction of a Region.

"Natsu! Lance! Shirona! Lorelei!"

When Natsu and the others walk off the busiest commercial street and come to a relatively remote residential area, the long lost Steven is finally there. gather with them.

Of course, Steven's presence isn't immune to his little best friend, Roxanne.

Several people became friends during the trial, and soon met again.

As for Claire.

She didn't participate in the trial, so she signed up.

But because of her, she didn't have to queue like a normal trainer.

"The qualifiers won't start until tomorrow, so I'll take you to where we live first." Steven bowed gracefully and made an invitation gesture, which drew understanding smiles from everyone.

Quick.

Under the guidance of Steven and Roxanne, Natsu arrives at the corner of a residential area, a place with the most beautiful surroundings and the most complete facilities.

What appeared in front of Natsu and the others was a large villa with three floors. The building land area alone exceeds a thousand square meters, not to mention the large villa that surrounds the villa. Courtyards, battlegrounds, training grounds, and training facilities are available within it.

Seeing this villa, even though Natsu had already prepared in his heart, he couldn't help but express that "rustic" astonishment.

"Just bought it?" Natsu seemed to have an inkling of this cruel reality.

"No, am I the type to spend money?" Steven shook his head.

Before Natsu could breathe a sigh of relief, Roxanne said, "This area of ​​the villa is contracted by a Devon Company."

Okay.

Natsu thought he was going to take a critical hit, but now he found that he didn't feel it at all.

It's numb.

The Devon Company's ability to contract out such a large villa area in the Sinnoh Region, such as the important Lily of the Valley Island, was no longer available.

Sure enough, poverty limits one's imagination.

Do you think Steven buying this villa will make him look rich?

But Natsu doesn't know that the entire area of ​​the villa belongs to the Devon family.

Seeing that Shirona had arranged everything in the villa, she glanced at the empty villa not far away, and secretly kept the key in her hand.

It's fun living together, isn't it?

"Then we are welcome." Lance quickly accepted the situation.

Then everyone entered the villa.

"Not many rooms, but it doesn't matter if one person chooses one." Roxanne pulled out a bundle of keys, like a renter about to collect rent.

In the end, Shirona, Lorelei, Roxanne and Claire, who had not returned, booked four rooms on the third floor, and the three boys Natsu, Steven and Lance stayed on the second floor very humbly.

When Natsu came to his room, he stopped again.

He finally understood why Roxanne said there weren't many rooms.

Where is the room, it's a suite, okay?

Bedroom, living room, toilet and bathroom are all available.

It was so spacious that Natsu thought he might as well go to the hotel.

But considering what was happening on Lily of the Valley Island right now, it wasn't an easy task to find a hotel with spare rooms, and all the training facilities here were excellent.

It can only "pull it".

To the left of his room is Lance, and to the right is Steven.

Natsu stepped out onto the spacious balcony and outside there was a large swimming pool not only for them, but also for relaxation of Water Type Pokémon.

Lying on the balcony railing.

A gentle evening breeze with a slight fishy smell blew on the cheeks, watching the orange sun gradually set in the distance, the faint red halo seemed to have covered the entire Lily of the Valley Island with a layer of red gold making the sea surface and reflecting the clouds.

Natsu who has no sense of the environment. He felt a little beauty. What appeared in front of him seemed to be an image scroll that was being opened.

He held his breath in his chest, subjectively trying to express, but couldn't find a suitable word or sentence.

In times like this, you will always lament the lack of knowledge reserves.

Suddenly.

Just as Natsu was racking his brains, a black spot appeared in the middle of a large round orange sun in the distance, which was very sudden.

"En?" Natsu was taken aback when he saw the black spot.

But when he looked again, there was nothing.

Illusion?

Natsu, who has experienced too many so-called illusions and coincidences, doesn't believe in illusions.

"Akane Sora" A soft voice came from above Natsu.

It was Shirona, who was also standing on the balcony and staying right above Natsu. Unlike Natsu, she gave quite precise and beautiful words when she saw this sunset view.

Seemed to have noticed Natsu's gaze, and when Shirona looked around, she saw Natsu sticking his head out from the balcony below.

Smile.

"Shirona, did you just see a black spot on the other side of the sun?" asked Natsu.

"Black spot?" Shirona moved towards the slowly setting sun again, glanced at the sun, and after thinking for a while, looked at her head, "No."

"Not?"

Is it really an illusion? Too tired lately?

On second thought, it turned out that even though there was a black spot, it had no effect on him, so he put it down temporarily.

"Is it Akane Sora? That's quite right."

He's totally out of tune for this twisted culture, and more suited to traveling the world a "crying place".

Thank you guys
