Chapter 209 Why did it evolve into a Pokémon battle?
As if Otto noticed that Luo Mu was stunned by Zhi Huixing's information, he quickly winked and hinted to Zhi Huixing on the stage.
What are you still standing there for? Start promoting yourself!
At the same time, Otto told Luo Mu with a smile about the special features of Zhihuixing. For example, Zhihuixing not only has excellent skills as a butler, but the strength of Zhihuixing itself is also very good. Its mental strength is very strong. It can lift heavy objects and precisely control towels to wipe dishes.
It can be said to be a perfect butler for home and travel.
Luo Mu was put into silence by Otto's combo. It seems that what Meowth said was true. This Monkey King really failed a grade for many years, otherwise Otto would not have recommended it so enthusiastically.
But, since Zhi Huixing’s resume shows he is so outstanding, why did he fail a grade for so many years?
There shouldn't be any problem with the character of the Monkey King. After all, Luo Mu saw it feeding a wild electric Pokémon not long ago. Or is it that Monkey King's kindness is only towards Pokémon, and it actually hates humans?
Luo Mu didn't think so. If Chihuixing hated humans, he would definitely go to a forest and live in seclusion. It would be impossible for him to stay in this Pokémon Butler Academy that trains butlers for humans for so many years.
Luo Mu cast his gaze towards Chital, who had not moved since his debut, unlike the graduates' housekeeper Pokémon who were eager to show off their talents, but just stood there quietly.
It seems that the answer still needs to be revealed by Zhihuixing.
Luo Mu could feel that Zhi Huixing had been sizing him up since he appeared on the scene.
At the moment their eyes met, an older, yet very steady and wise male voice sounded in Luo Mu's mind: "Hello, Mr. Luo Mu."
Is this telepathy?
Luo Mu remembered that Zhi Huixing seemed to really have the ability of telepathy.
Luo Mu tried to reply, "Nice to meet you, Zhi Huixing. How do you know my name?"
Luo Mu's reply startled Principal Otto, who was introducing Zhi Huixing incessantly, and his and Malushiel's expressions instantly became surprised.
This was not because he was surprised that Zhi Huixing had telepathy, but simply because he was surprised that Zhi Huixing could communicate with Luo Mu from the beginning.
You should know that when meeting many distinguished guests who come to choose their butler Pokémon, Zhihuixing often chooses not to say a word and has a very cold attitude towards those guests.
It was as if Zhihuixing didn't want to be chosen by those people.
In response to Luo Mu's question, Zhi Huixing replied seriously, "Because we have read the investigation information of your residence before coming here, and we feel that we can accept working on your farm, so we come here to apply for a job now."
"After all, the rules stipulate from the beginning that the choice between us is a two-way street, right?"
Zhi Huixing's voice was steady, and his words were well-organized and very logical, which almost made Luo Mu feel as if he was communicating with a wise old man.
Luo Mu nodded slightly: "You are right, the choice is two-way, this is your right."
"Thank you for your understanding." Zhihuixing put his fanning hand against his chest and looked at Luo Mu with a wise look. "What do you think of me? I can guarantee that there is no false information."
Luo Mu said bluntly: "I think it's great. Based on what I have learned from my visit so far, you are the best."
"The information says that your farm is a place run purely by Pokémon. It is located in the suburbs far away from the downtown area. I like quiet places very much."
"To be honest, I'm very interested in working on your farm."
Chiroptera's performance is completely different from other butler Pokémon. It seems to be better at expressing its own demands. If the information is true as it says, Luo Mu feels that Chiroptera does have the confidence to express its own ideas.
At least, Luo Mu was willing to communicate with Zhi Huixing, and its qualities as a butler perfectly matched Luo Mu's idea of a butler.
Calm, generous, wise, and able to make certain judgments on their own.
Luo Mu asked, "So, are you going to take over the job of housekeeper at my farm?" Otto's eyes kept wandering between Luo Mu and Zhi Huixing. It was obvious that he hadn't reacted yet, but it seemed that this repeater from his own academy for more than ten years was finally going to "get married" today! ?
Otto felt tears welling up in his eyes, and his assistant, Miss Malushiel, also quietly wiped away a tear.
She had seen with her own eyes how Principal Otto, who was worried about Zhi Huixing's employment problem, changed from a handsome and elegant middle-aged man to the bright light bulb he is today.
However, Zhihuixing's next words surprised Otto and Malushiel from their sweet dreams and reminded them of their dead memories.
Zhi Huixing said slowly: "I am happy to do so. Although I really want to say this, I have another request."
Otto's eyes widened and he blurted out, "Zhi Hui Xing! That's enough. Why do you insist on your set of requirements? It's been so many years!"
Zhi Huixing, whose words were interrupted, looked at Otto, bowed slightly, and said apologetically: "Principal, I understand that you are worried about my employment, but you can say that I am stubborn or pedantic, but I cannot compromise on this point."
"Oh you!"
Otto let his raised arm fall down and sighed.
Luo Mu's expression did not change much, and he said, "Zhi Huixing, you can talk as you please."
Zhihuixing nodded gratefully. So far, Luo Mu had left a very good impression on him. His telepathy continued, "Perhaps this is just my nature. I ask for too much, so I have wasted more than a decade in the academy."
"Since I entered the Pokémon Butler Academy, I have had a dream. The place where I will work in the future must be a place where Pokémon and humans coexist equally, without any discrimination, and Pokémon are not just weapons to participate in battles. Both Pokémon and humans have their own responsibilities and live happily together."
"From the information you have read, your farm is indeed an ideal place for me."
"Then, there is the last obstacle. In order to ensure the peace and stability of life, we must have the power to resist the unexpected."
"In short, Mr. Luo Mu, please send your Pokémon to fight with me. As long as you can show enough strength to protect the territory, I will serve you wholeheartedly."
Zhi Huixing's words completely explained the reason why he was held back, and Luo Mu felt suddenly enlightened.
Maybe some people think that Zhi Huixing is too troublesome and picky and can't see himself clearly, but Luo Mu thinks that this is not a bad thing. It only means that Zhi Huixing takes the place where he will most likely work for the rest of his life seriously and wants to make the best possible choices.
Unfortunately, probably no one has ever met its standards before.
Thinking of this, Luo Mu smiled and said, "Battle? Although it's a bit unexpected, I agree to your invitation. After all, I know a thing or two about Pokémon battles."
Seeing that Luo Mu agreed to his willful request that crossed the line, Zhi Huixing said gratefully: "Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Luo Mu."
Because Otto was in a state of autism because of the high probability of Zhihuixing's job being ruined, his assistant Malushiel came over and reminded him in a low voice, "Mr. Luo Mu, although Zhihuixing is practicing the way of a butler, he is actually very powerful in combat."
"A few years ago, a visiting gym leader also received a battle invitation from Zhihuixing, but in the end, that gym leader lost to Zhihuixing. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Gym leader?"
Luo Mu was startled and looked at Zhi Huixing, who also allowed Luo Mu to look at him.
To be honest, Zhihuixing looks more like a sage who has made full use of his wisdom, and does not look like a person with strong fighting power at all.
Having said that, since Rhyno can defeat Pokémon commanded by gym leaders, its strength should be quite outstanding. At least, it should be much stronger than the current Windy Hound.
It seems that it's Swampert's turn to take the stage.
