Chapter 1435 - Fairy RemnantsHearing Mewtwo's words, Yuga replied, "I don't know what this thing is either. It's undergone a mutation, but it should indeed be an energy plant."
Upon hearing this, Mewtwo flew over to the ghost vine, touched its trunk with its hand, then looked at Yuga and asked, "Can I take some back for re
When she saw Yuga coming down the stairs, Ayamu's face lit up with a wide smile. She cheerfully waved and called out.
"Gym Leader!"
Ayamu was a very lively girl. When she smiled, she was like a little sun, easily infecting others with her cheer.
Her voice caught the attention of her teacher and classmates. The three finally laid eyes on the famed Trainer, Yuga, and were simultaneously amazed by how young and handsome he was.
Zenith Academy didn't have frequent contact with the outside world, but not to the extent that they hadn't heard of Yuga, such a well-known Trainer. Still, hearing about someone was not the same as seeing them in person—no amount of stories could compare to the impression of meeting him face-to-face.
Yuga stepped forward and said, "Why you suddenly return? You didn't even give me a heads-up."
As he spoke, he nodded toward the three standing beside Ayamu as a form of greeting, though since Ayamu hadn't introduced them yet, he didn't say much more.
The three noticed Yuga's gesture and nodded back in acknowledgment.
Ayamu grinned and said playfully, "Ah, I'll explain that later. Let me introduce my teacher and classmates first."
With that, she began introducing the identities of the three.
The only woman among them, who was also their teacher, was named Chiffon. She was a gentle-looking woman with long black hair cascading down her back. Paired with a pair of black-framed glasses, she looked very low-profile.
However, Yuga could tell that she was very beautiful—only that her beauty was mostly hidden behind those glasses.
As for the two young men, both were Ayamu's seniors. One was named Toyomi, and the other was named Tanba. They both seemed very polite. After Ayamu introduced Yuga, they both greeted Yuga with great courtesy, and the looks in their eyes were full of curiosity.
To the vast majority of people, Yuga was already considered a legend. He became famous at a young age, and even now he was still not considered old. It was not strange at all that he would attract the curiosity and admiration of the new generation of Trainers.
After a round of introductions, everyone was more or less acquainted. Since Ayamu didn't rush to explain the reason for their return, Yuga didn't rush to ask either. He only said, "Teacher Chiffon, do you all have a place to stay? If not, why don't you stay at the Verdanturf Gym for now?"
Since they were Ayamu's teacher and classmates, and had come all the way to Verdanturf Town, Yuga couldn't possibly not offer hospitality. Although he didn't know the exact location of Zenith Academy, he knew that it was somewhere in the Kalos Region, and Kalos was not close to Hoenn.
Chiffon and the others had come to Verdanturf Town because they had something to ask of Yuga. So upon hearing Yuga's invitation, they naturally agreed readily.
"Then thank you very much, Mr. Shimizu," Teacher Chiffon said.
After that, Yuga asked Beidou to take Teacher Chiffon and the two students to the Verdanturf Gym to settle in, while Ayamu stayed behind.
Once they reached the fourth-floor living room, Yuga asked Ayamu, "So, tell me, what's the reason for your return this time?"
Instead of answering Yuga's question, Ayamu countered with a question: "Gym Leader, have you ever heard of the Ancient Remnant Clans?"
Yuga was surprised for a moment upon hearing "Ancient Remnant Clans," then immediately answered, "Yes, I've heard of them. Your return this time is related to the Ancient Remnant Clans?"
Ayamu nodded and said, "That's right. Actually, our Zenith Academy was founded by the Fairy Remnants among the Ancient Remnant Clans, and Teacher Chiffon is also one of the Fairy Remnants."
Yuga was even more surprised upon hearing this. He hadn't expected that Zenith Academy had such an origin. Among the Ancient Remnant Clans, he had already met the Water Remnants, the Dragon Remnants, the Earth Remnants, the Dark Remnants, and the Phychic Remnants. He hadn't expected that now the Fairy Remnants would also reveal themselves.
Some of these Ancient Remnant Clans, like the Dragon Remnants (the Dragon Tamers and Dragon's Valley), still thrived in prosperity. Others, like the Water Remnants or Phychic Remnants, continued to reproduce quietly. Still others, like the Wind Remnants (also called the Sky Remnants), had already faded from history (become extinct).
In short, those Ancient Remnant Clans had scattered all over the world for various reasons. Some still remembered the glory of being Ancient Remnants and even thought about making a comeback, while others had long forgotten their heritage.
"So, the Fairy Remnants want to make contact with me?" Yuga asked.
"Mhm." Ayamu answered honestly, "The guardian pokemon of the Fairy Remnants has encountered a problem, and this problem can only be solved through Fairy Aura. That's why they came back with me."
In fact, Ayamu herself didn't know what Fairy Aura was. The matters regarding the Ancient Remnant Clans, and the fact that Zenith Academy had been founded by the Fairy Remnants, were only told to her later by Teacher Chiffon. Since the Fairy Remnants needed her to make contact with Yuga, they had no choice but to tell her some of these things.
Upon hearing this, Yuga was shocked: "How could Zenith Academy know that I have Fairy Aura here?"
Was Zenith Academy really that powerful? There were already very few people who even knew what Fairy Aura was, let alone the fact that he had it in his possession—it was an extremely well-kept secret.
Wasn't Zenith Academy always a secluded institution? Could it be that they, like the White Light Intelligence Agency, were secretly conducting intelligence work? At this moment, Yuga felt a strong sense of wariness toward the Fairy Remnants.
Ayamu shook her head: "I don't know. They just wanted me to help introduce them."
In fact, Yuga really was mistaken. Zenith Academy had indeed always been reclusive and had not been gathering any intelligence. They had always been focused solely on cultivating outstanding Breeders.
The reason they came to find Yuga was because their headmaster owned a Carbink. Before being captured, that Carbink had been a citizen of the Diamond Domain and still maintained contact with the Diamond Domain even now.
After the guardian Pokemon of the Fairy Remnants encountered problems, the headmaster wanted to use his Carbink to request help from the Diamond Domain. But the core of the Diamond Domain had always remained distant from humans, and it was impossible for them to intervene on behalf of the Fairy Remnants.
Moreover, within the Diamond Domain, the only one possessing Fairy Aura was Princess Diancie, and Diancie hadn't yet fully matured. How could the Diamond Domain possibly agree to let her act rashly?
However, although the Diamond Domain refused to help directly, they gave the Fairy Remnants a clue, telling them that the Gym Leader of Verdanturf Town, Shimizu Yuga, might be able to help them. And that's how Teacher Chiffon ended up bringing people to Verdanturf Town.
While Yuga was speaking with Ayamu, the three people from Zenith Academy who were at the Gym were also talking among themselves.
"I didn't expect that would be the legendary Mr. Shimizu. He's so young!" Toyomi said with excitement. For an ordinary person, it was only natural to be thrilled to meet a legendary Trainer.
"Yeah, yeah, he's totally different from how I imagined him," Tanba added.
Teacher Chiffon stood quietly to the side, listening to her two students talk without joining the conversation.
Toyomi and Tanba didn't know the real reason why Teacher Chiffon came to Verdanturf Town. They simply thought they were visiting the YoYo Day Care. After all, the Pokémon raised at YoYo Day Care were very famous, and as Breeders, it was normal for them to visit and learn.
The people of the Fairy Remnants would never casually reveal that their guardian Pokemon had encountered a problem. If it weren't necessary to have Ayamu introduce them to Yuga, they wouldn't even have told Ayamu about it.
