..........

In the land.

Although Aiko and Haruka said they were going to work, their main purpose was still to take some nice photos.

However, they soon noticed that things seemed to be heading in a strange direction.

Haruka loosened the collar of her white short-sleeved shirt.

"Aiko, can we really call this an experience of life anymore?"

Aiko wiped the sweat from her forehead.

A few strands of hair had completely stuck together on her forehead.

Aiko sighed, "I don't want to either, but in this situation, it's really hard to stop."

"Sandslash~"

In front of them, Sandslash had almost finished cutting the weeds in the area.

Sandslash turned around and immediately ran over to help them make the land arable.

Sandslash had learned how to allocate work.

It was mowing in the front while Aiko and Haruka were behind it, using shovels to loosen the soil.

Whenever Sandslash noticed that they were falling behind, it would quickly return to assist them.

While their speed was slow, Sandslash never rushed them.

Sandslash quietly finished tilling the land before running back to the front to mow again.

This made the two feel a sudden pressure.

To avoid letting Sandslash run back and forth constantly, they had to speed up their soil-turning efforts.

"Hey, Sandslash, do you want to take a break for a bit?" 

Seeing this, Sandslash pointed to the nearby empty plot of land.

"Sandslash."

"Are you telling us to go rest?"

Sandslash nodded, then began to continue making the land arable.

"Ah, this—"

Aiko looked at Haruka and asked, "Should we go take a break?"

Haruka replied with a helpless expression, "If we do that, wouldn't we be leaving Sandslash to work alone here?"

"After all, we're the ones who suggested coming to work."

Aiko lamented, "Does this guy ever get tired?"

Sandslash glanced back at the two.

"Sandslash~"

Sandslash suddenly smiled and waved its hand toward them.

Aiko and Haruka turned to look.

There was a boy walking in the light.

He was waving his hand.

The sunlight illuminated his face, which was filled with smiles.

Floating beside him were Dragonair and the proud-looking Serperior.

Serperior's haughty expression and crimson gaze softened only slightly when directed at Natsume.

Aiko couldn't help but say, "He's way cooler than a prince on a white horse."

Natsume walked up to the two and asked, "How's it going?"

Aiko snapped back to reality and quickly replied, "It's great, really great."

"I've learned a lot from Sandslash."

Natsume looked back at Sandslash and smiled, "You've been complimented, Sandslash."

"Sandslash~"

Sandslash puffed out its chest happily, then walked up to Aiko and said, "Sandslash."

Natsume helped translate: "Sandslash said it wants to teach you new methods for making the land arable."

"Ah?"

Aiko's expression suddenly froze.

"Sandslash~"

Sandslash gestured for Aiko to follow.

Haruka tried to hold back a laugh and said, "Go on, give it your all~"

"Come on, I know you want to learn too!"

Aiko grabbed Haruka's arm.

Before Haruka could protest, Aiko immediately shouted to Sandslash, "Sandslash, you can teach her too, right?"

Sandslash turned to look at the two and raised its claws.

Sandslash indicated that it was no problem at all.

"Sandslash~"

Aiko smiled and looked at Haruka, saying, "Are you going to refuse?"

Haruka looked at Aiko with a tearful expression: "I'm going to kill you."

"Bulbasaur~"

"Marill~"

The two's Bulbasaur and Marill seemed quite enthusiastic.

They happily walked beside their respective trainers.

Natsume smiled at them, saying, "You're really full of energy."

"Dragonair~"

Natsume scratched under the chin of the Dragonair that had trotted up beside him and asked, "How about we have a barbecue by the bamboo grove tonight?"

"Dragonair."

Dragonair wanted to eat Springy Mushroom.

"Springy Mushroom can be grilled too."

Natsume walked toward the room and said, "Let's buy some sticks and make our own skewers."

"Serperior, do you have anything you want to eat?"

"Servine~"

Serperior was not picky.

"Then let's go; we'll first gather some Springy Mushrooms from the greenhouse."

"Dragonair~"

Upon hearing this, Dragonair called out excitedly and quickly dashed to the entrance of the Springy Mushroom greenhouse.

"Dragonair~"

Natsume smiled and said, "Here we come, here we come~"

The sun gradually moved westward.

Arcanine, Houndoom, and the Houndour were running laps around the farm.

This was their daily work and also their training method.

Farfetch'd continued to swing its leek.

Its movements were getting faster and faster.

In the courtyard.

Natsume placed the cleaned Springy Mushrooms and the purchased meat on a large table.

The two Buneary were having a competition to see who could skewer more.

"Did you know, Rotom, that barbecue varies from region to region~"

Rotom chattered away, sharing barbecue styles from various places.

Swadloon had come alone to the Hearty Grains field.

It stared at the field of Hearty Grains and slowly closed its eyes.

A unique energy radiated from Swadloon.

Ding dong.

Natsume's phone received a notification from Farm Story.

Some of the Hearty Grains had received nutrients from Swadloon, increasing their yield.
