Hearing Manafei's response, Fang Yuan was slightly taken aback. It couldn't heal...?
However, the few solutions that Manafei offered were quite satisfactory results.
"Manafei..."
Fang Yuan brought up another important matter. Previously, Manafei promised to help Fang Yuan strengthen Milotic and Dragonite, but it required Fang Yuan to bring it a female Trainer who liked Water-type Spirits, preferably one who had tamed only Water-type Spirits, was kind-hearted and possessed Superpower Talent, and was under the age of twenty.
Fang Yuan guessed that Manafei might be looking for a Trainer to become the Guardian of the Temple of the Sea or possibly to become its Legacy Trainer.
The former seemed more likely, while the latter seemed less so.
However, Manafei didn't specify which one it wanted.
Now, he had brought He Xiaomai with him, and he was very eager to know what Manafei really thought.
"...Manafei, she is the Trainer I brought to you. However, she is still young. You haven't told me what you need such a Trainer for. Neither her parents nor I can rest assured letting her do dangerous things with you."
Fang Yuan said to Manafei with a wry smile using Mind Induction.
"Manafi~" Manafei nodded happily, glad that He Xiaomai was indeed the Trainer Fang Yuan had brought for it, and it assured Fang Yuan that it would enable He Xiaomai to clearly see the outside world through other abilities.
"Manafi??"
But soon after, Manafei was taken aback. Dangerous things? It was such a peace-loving Pokémon, how could it possibly do dangerous things.
What kind of Pokémon did Fang Yuan take it for?
To put Fang Yuan at ease, Manafei began to explain.
It just wanted Fang Yuan to find a Trainer to act as its spokesperson. In other words, He Xiaomai's task would be to travel to remote sea areas around the world, Helping Hand it make acquaintances with other powerful Water-type Spirits and confirm their locations. In addition, Manafei wanted He Xiaomai to become a bridge for a friendly relationship between it and humans, which would result in an increase in its friends.
Manafei assured Fang Yuan not to worry, as it would ensure He Xiaomai's safety and wouldn't let her be in danger.
After quietly listening to Manafei's request, Fang Yuan was dumbfounded.
That's it?
Not a Temple Guardian or a Legacy Trainer?
You just bloody want to find a Tool Trainer who can run errands and network for you?
"Why didn't you say so earlier, I can do it too!" Fang Yuan was flabbergasted. Had the Trainer Association been looking for people for so long just for this little thing?
He could also help Manafei network; as long as there were benefits, Fang Yuan loved making acquaintances with powerful Pokémon.
"Manafi?"
When Fang Yuan said he could do it too, Manafei also felt baffled. Weren't you chosen by another Legendary Pokémon?
With that kind of relationship, how could Manafei dare to directly use Fang Yuan?
"..." Fang Yuan was completely speechless.
However, Manafei was quite happy, as He Xiaomai perfectly met its requirements. With her aura, she would definitely not be rejected by other Pokémon; she was a truly perfect networking Tool Trainer.
Most importantly, He Xiaomai was Fang Yuan's student, which would deepen its relationship with Fang Yuan, and by extension, with the Legendary Pokémon that Fang Yuan had contact with.
Manafei felt it was quite a genius.
"Um..."
Seeing the atmosphere suddenly become heavy and no further sound emerging, He Xiaomai spoke out, a bit scared.
"It's alright, it's alright..." Now Fang Yuan felt a bit of a headache as he thought about how to explain the matter to He Xiaomai. Forget it, he might as well fleece the temple first and let He Xiaomai decide later on. Anyway, He Xiaomai was now a Trainer of the Heart Source Style and couldn't be put at a disadvantage here with the Prince of the Sea.
