Chapter 21

  Kurotsuki007

  As I step into the corridor back towards the waiting room, my music pyer starts to py “Legendary” by Skillet. I smile slightly and adjust my step to be in time with the music as I y eyes slightly and bop my head as I sing along internally. I also notice that I have a blinking notification in the er of my eyes but I ig for now as I want to celebrate my win. I reach the he end of the hallway and see a league trainer who motions for me to gh a different door than the one I came out of.

  Passing through the door, I enter a small room that practically screams corporate office with a single desk in the ter where someone was sitting. The person behind the desk was an older dy with graying hair tied up in a bun so tight that it was a wohat she had any hair left, my skull hurt just looking at it. She looks up as I approach her desk and I see she has a face that makes it look like she was sug on a lemon. I return her sour look with my own impassive face.

  “I see you have won, first ooday at that.” She says with a miniscule frown. “The se you created out there has screwed up our schedule as it will take nearly an hour to clear the arena. We are not a gym that normally sees high level battles so none of the staff we had on hand today are equipped to handle such matters.”

  “I apologize, but for me it was the only way to win.”

  “That is what you trainers always say. Very well then, I will mark your trainer records with the information that you will cause widespread terrain ges so that yms will be properly staffed iure. I have also credited your at with your winning from the gym. You may leave now.”

  Thanking her, I sharply turn and walk out the door. I’m gd that my face is naturally impassive or else my eye would be twitg from having to deal with a Karen. I guess you ’t escape from them by ging what universe you live in. As I step out into the lobby, I am greeted by another wave of cheers from those that were watg my matbsp;

  I walk out of the gym and quickly find Bea and Fnnery waiting for me. I head over to them and give them a small smile and hold out a hand with my fingers in a “V” symbol. The two of them burst out ughing as my as don’t fit with the air I am currently giving off.

  “Fantastic fight Frost! You had everyone captivated with your battle, it was like watg an end of season fight. It is rare to see someone ge the enviro during their first ever badge.”

  “Captivated was right. When you stepped out of the hallway, everyone was stunned by how hot you are.” Fnnery gives me a teasing smile as her eyes trail ay body. I blush slightly at her ent and look away slightly. Uhat guy earlier, her gaze makes me feel hot iher than sick. I shift my stance a little, wantio look more. “Where did you buy that dress? It gives off quite a statement.”

  I think for a moment, trying to e up with an answer. In the end, I decide to tell a small lie. “Grandpa got it for me on my sixteenth birthday. I’m not sure where he got it.” I give a small shrug, hoping they drop the issue. “Let’s take a picture for Pokegram! Since I’m all dolled up, we might as well take advantage of it.”

  We find a pear the gym that isn’t full of people and take a few pictures for us to post. I make sure I tag Bea and Fnnery when I post the pictures. I still don’t have any followers besides the two of them, but it doesn’t matter, I just post because I want to.

  We post our pictures, and shortly after we head towards the Poketer so that I could heal up my pokemon a ged. As much as I like this outfit, it would be impractical to wear outside of gym battles. After dropping off Skadi and Zephyr, I head up to my room and spend the hirty mirying to peel my dress off. I had a much easier time putting it on by myself but trying to get it off is a different story.

  When it is finally off I make sure that I toss it in the wash and take a quick shower to remove my makeup. I step out of the shower and while I let myself dry in the air and undo my hair, I check the notifications that I got after the battle.

  [gratutions host, you have defeated a strong trainer. You have earned one free gacha spin.]

  [gratutions Host, you have won a gym battle and earned a badge. You have received four free gacha spins.]

  I blink for a moment aally tally up how many spins I have gotten i twenty-four hours and I realize I am sitting at ten spins currently. I check my gacha and I see an option that allows me to do a ten plus one roll. I don’t know if I would receive a good item with the plus one, like what is popur in gacha games ba earth, but I see a reason to save up on rolls instead of using them as I get them sometimes. I still don’t know everything that I could get. I decide that I will do the rolls tonight after we finish having our celebration party.

  *~*~*

  I arrive ba my room with a small smile on my face. I had just spilt from Bea and Fnnery after our party. We found a cafe that had an all you could eat cake buffet so the three of us spent our evening chatting, ughing and just having a good time, like usual when we are together, until we called it for the night as we wao head out early in the m as ent long enough ier City.

  I grab my pokeballs a out Skadi and Zephyr who look around the room and spot me with a smile on my face.

  “We won dies! Skadi, you did a great job setting up Niflheim and Zephyr, you were my heavy hitter. Hopefully our badge will be easier as we are dealing with Water. At least it won’t be full of direct ters to us.” I tell them as I give them a hug. They reply with a bunch of happy sounds and cuddle bato me.

  After a few minutes of our cuddle pile, I go about making sure I am ready to leave in the m. Once I am sure everything is packed up and ready, I pull off my clothes and toss them into the bag as well. As much as I dislike the fact I have to ractically nothing, it is rather veo get ged.

  I settle on the bed and everyos into their usual spots. I mentally pull up the gacha and take a deep breath, hoping for something good before I press the spin.

  [gratutions host, you have received a bottle of mountain air]

  [gratutions host, you have received a The Yuna Special]

  [gratutions host, you have received a Potion of Invisibility]

  [gratutions host, you have received a Potion of Mind Reading]

  [gratutions host, you have received an oversized Cat Hoodie]

  [gratutions host, you have received Haku’s Jutsu Scrolls]

  [gratutions host, you have received Ravioli Di Aragosta made by Erina Nakir

  [gratutions host, you have received 10 meters of Soft Silk Rope]

  [gratutions host, you have received a Potion of Animal Friendship]

  [gratutions host, you have received a set of Silver Friendship Rings]

  [gratutions host, you have received a Ptinum Armband]

  I look at the notifications on what I have received with some intrigue. Though one of these items is not like the others. I sigh and stand up before walking into the shower and clig on the accept option for the Yuna Special and closing my eyes. After a minute of waiting and nothing happening, I open my eyes to see nothing. I start looking around the rest of my room and I still don’t see anything. I let out a sigh and decide to let sleeping cakes lie.

  I settle bato the bed and cli the accept option for the rest of the items. The first item is a sealed pstic bottle with a bel that reads “Premium Bottled Air from Mount Offal”. I decide that I am going to just pce that irash when I leave, o open it or ask questions. The hings to appear are three test tube sized tainers with liquid in them One of the tainers looks empty but I feel something moving around inside of it, another is a murky white liquid that has little images of animals appear briefly and the st is a purplish liquid that has a faint pink glow to it.

  These must be the potions, I will look into the tier details ter, for now I have more stuff to check out. I look at a folded bck square that I easily reize as a hoodie. I used to wear them all the time ba earth and this sort of oversized hoodie that could act like a dress was just my thing. On top of the hoodie was four items. One was a bundle of neon pink rope that felt fortable to touch, I could feel my eye twitch as I knew what that was to be used for. was a trio of silver rings with cat’s eye stones in them; one ice blue, one amber gold, and one fme red. These would be perfect for the girls and I to wear. The item was a scroll of white paper edged in blue and tied with a blue kumihimo tied around it. The st item tinum ring that was te to wear as a bracelet or a. When I took a closer look, the shape of the ring looks like a ails in mid run. The eye of the ails is an expertly cut sapphire.

  I pick up everything and sat it on the desk o my bag where I find the final item. On the desk sits a white pte with three beautiful ravioli in a light reddish brown saud a green garnish of kale fronds. The food looks so perfect that I have to take a picture of it first before I sit doull out a fork from my bag and enjoy the treat. From the moment I pced the first one in my mouth, all the way until I finished, I felt as if I was swimming in an o with all sorts of fish pying with me. I don’t know how food could do this, but I was not going to pin. My only pint was that it was gone and that it effectively just ruined my taste buds.

  Spoiler

  [colpse]Once I no longer feel as if I am floating, I quickly wash up and head back to the bed where I settle down and begin my nightly meditation. I’m not sure how to further progress my cultivation teique so for the moment, I just watch the pulse of energy and slowly fall into a trahat passes the time.
