Chapter 1: Champion Retirees

In the Padya area, a sweet female voice that was cheerful and energetic was heard during a live broadcast with very few viewers.

"Use electric nets to capture your eyeballs! Who will tell the story? Here comes the strange tree!"

"Good morning, noon and evening!"

"Now~ Qishu will watch the final moment of this Padia Pokémon League Champion Test with everyone!"

"Trainer Luo Mu VS the President and Chief Champion of the Padia League - Ye Ci!"

With exciting background music, the live broadcast gradually zoomed in, and the final curtain of the battle slowly opened at the top of the Pokémon League in the northwest of Table City.

Countless flashes of lightning splashed across the field. Looking closely at the ground, one could faintly see some purple poisonous spikes scattered on it.

On the field, two wounded Pokémon were facing each other.

A Pokémon with crystal-like petals that looks mysterious and dangerous.

A Pokémon with majestic black mane. Even though it was poisoned, its golden eyes that shone like the sun did not show any hesitation but were filled with a determination to fight to the death.

During the confrontation, the young man on the left, who was wearing neat and tidy casual clothes and looked about 18 years old, said: "Crazy Volt!"

The eyes of the Roentgen cat flashed, and countless electric currents instantly wrapped around its body, as if it was wearing a golden battle suit. Even the poison could not stop its determination. The next moment, the Roentgen cat turned into a flash of lightning and rushed towards the crystal flower, and even the ground along the way was burned black by the electric current.

On the right, the black-haired beauty in a neat suit did not intend to sit still and wait for death. Her fighting style was as majestic as a martial god. Ye Ci coldly ordered: "Mud wave!"

In an instant, a wave of mud filled with highly toxic toxins swept everything around it, and the Roentgen cat was almost unable to move under its obstruction.

However, the Roentgen cat's eyes were still so firm. At this moment, it seemed to resonate with Luo Mu, and memories of the past kept emerging in the Roentgen cat's mind.

The Roentgen cat felt the inexplicable power surging in his body, his heart trembled, he gritted his teeth, rushed forward with all his strength, and then touched the small body.

The golden lightning storm swept across the battlefield in an instant. The entire Padia Alliance headquarters was shaking, and even an unpleasant strange smell began to appear in the air.

The smell mixed with the foul toxins was extremely disgusting.

Luo Mu and Roentgen Cat didn't frown at all because of the smell, but just smiled sincerely.

Because from their perspective, Chief Champion Ye Ci's Crystal Flower was no longer able to maintain its floating posture, and fell directly to the ground, which looked like it had been hit by a meteorite and whose original flatness could no longer be seen, and it had completely lost its combat capability.

A new champion trainer is born here.

"I'm ready to retire!"

After completing the championship test and obtaining the title of champion trainer, Luo Mu was faced with the olive branch offered by Ye Ci, "Work in the Padilla Alliance", and his answer was beyond Ye Ci's expectations.

Ye Ci rubbed his swollen temples, frowned and asked, "Champion Luo Mu, do you know what you are talking about?"

Luo Mu responded without hesitation: "I know, but my plan will not change at all!"

Ye Ci sighed, looked at Luo Mu with regret, and asked, "I can't force you to make a decision, but please at least tell me the reason. It only took you one year to grow to where you are now."

"You have such great potential, why do you choose to give up?"

Luo Mu's eyes wandered for a moment. He felt that his next answer might arouse the anger of Ye Ci, the usually elegant and good-tempered Alliance President. But under Ye Ci's oppressive gaze, Luo Mu still backed down and raised his hands in surrender: "You should know my background. Becoming a trainer is just a coincidence. In fact, my dream is to open a small shop or a farm and live a leisurely pastoral life!"

"Now that I have become a champion trainer, I have the confidence and courage to realize my dream!"

Ye Ci took a deep breath. It was not that she could not understand Luo Mu's thoughts, but the fact that such an excellent trainer chose to retire still made her sigh again. She said helplessly: "I understand. Your reasons have successfully convinced me. But, I have a request that I hope you can agree to."

Luo Mu was slightly stunned, then pretended to listen attentively.

Ye Ci said slowly, "You are a powerful trainer, and the only one who has passed the champion test in recent years. If there are any issues in the Padia region that I am too busy to handle, I hope to ask for your help as a personal commission."

This time Luo Mu did not refuse, he nodded and replied softly: "No problem."

Pingdie Town, south of Padia region.

Half a month has passed since the end of the little-known battle in the Pokémon League.

The new champion trainer has not taken over any work since then, and not many people know that there is a new champion trainer in the league. This small and peaceful town continues its ordinary life day after day.

In the center of Pingdie Town, a young man wearing a casual T-shirt and cropped trousers walked out of a rather Western-looking building. He was wearing sunglasses in the sunny weather, as if he was going to a beach.

Luo Mu looked at the stamped [Land Transfer Certificate] and [Construction Project Permit] in his hands, and tears almost fell from his eyes.

He really didn't expect that buying a large piece of land in the world of Pokémon would be so troublesome. He had to wait for seven days before he got the documents from the mayor's mansion in Flatland Town behind him.

If I had known earlier, I would have lowered myself and asked my acquaintances for help. Does saving face matter?

but
When Luo Mu came to this piece of land which he had purchased at a huge price by spending almost all his savings and leaving only some for feeding the Pokémon, his eyes still shone with unprecedented brilliance.

This is the taste!
The world of Pokémon is not only about fighting and killing, but also about the option of living a happy life with your best partner!

Pet the Roentgen cat in the warm sunlight, tease the Tsundere Snake occasionally, hold the weak Mimikyu and ride on the Dragonite to enjoy the magnificent view of the sky, and watch the Blue Blade Chef with excellent knife skills and Swampert's daily battle.

However, a detrimental font suddenly appeared in Luo Mu's eyes.

[Ding! The special prompt system has been loaded successfully! ]

[System purpose: To train each host to become the strongest and most powerful of the current era! If we use the combat power system of this world to call it - champion! ]

Luo Mu: "."

A look of surprise appeared on Luo Mu's face. If you look closely, you can see the deep disgust hidden in his eyes.

I've become a champion-level trainer on my own. What use is your golden finger now other than disturbing my leisurely retirement life?

There is such an inexplicable feeling of bad luck!

　Glossary: ​​"Champion Trainer" is a new trainer level introduced in Pokémon Vermillion. In the Padia region, there is a challenge event called the Champion Test. After defeating eight gym leaders and successfully challenging the Four Heavenly Kings and Chief Champion Yeci in the Padia League, you will be given the title of Champion Trainer.

　　The above is the same process for other generations.

　　Then the difference came: after other regions completed the challenge, the old league champion stepped down and the new league champion took office, but in the Padiya region you only get a championship-level title to prove that you have the ability, but you cannot get the rights and responsibilities that only the league champion has, and Ye Ci is still the chief champion.
