Chapter 94 Reconciliation with the past and reconciliation with yourself (22)

On June 12, the morning was bright and the breeze was gentle.

The day after the finals of the team championship ended, the teachers and students of Salo Academy, eager to return home, couldn't wait to take the trophy and take the first train back at night.

The special car from the college was waiting outside the train station early.

Thousands of Sala citizens got the news and gathered here to welcome the teachers and students who had won great honors for their hometown.

For Miare, winning the youth championship is a matter of course, but for Salo, which has a sparse population and is located in the northwest border, this is a glorious moment that has been rare in many years.

On the way from the train station to Salo College, people holding flowers can be seen everywhere.

Philio, Antoine, Abe......

Each name became a household name in a short period of time.

Together with this trophy, which will be permanently stored in the Honor Room of Salo College, everyone’s deeds will also be remembered by this coastal city for a long time.

At this moment, they, exhausted from many days of hard work, were sleeping deeply in the car.

Sun Eevee, who woke up early, squatted next to Filio, quietly watching the dream monster drooling and snoring above Filio's head, and curled up into a small ball, sleeping on Filio's legs.

Big-mouthed baby.

Nowadays, although he is still used to sleeping with Filio in his arms, after seeing the big battle, the big-mouthed baby has gradually adapted to the new life, and has fewer and fewer nightmares and awakenings.

By the window, Pogaman was looking at the street scene, and for some reason, he felt a little more lost.

The big violet eyes blinked twice, and the soft superpower turned into a big hand and touched Bogaman's head.

Sitting next to Filio was Korni, who asked Filio to buy the same train ticket back to Salo.

Her sleeping appearance is not that good either.

His arms were slanted on Filio's body, and most of his body was slumped down. He didn't move much, and he looked more honest than the little dream demon who showed his teeth and claws.

------------------

Later in the evening, Salo Academy.

The special car carrying all members of the representative team slowly drove back.

They arrived with them, as well as a large number of Sara people who followed along the way from the station.

For this city, yesterday’s victory and today’s celebration are a unique festival this year.

Antoine, whose family is not in Salo, was very excited when he saw this scene, not to mention Filio and others who had lived here since childhood.

Seeing the enthusiasm bursting from the inner joy of the normally amiable neighbors, Filio felt waves of warmth flow into his heart, and his sleeping mental energy trembled slightly, integrating into it bit by bit.
p>

Looking at the trophy not far away, his excitement, which had calmed down, became excited again.

My own student days have become more complete because of it.

------------------

"I knew you could do it!"

Muriel, who had not slept all night but was still in good spirits, led all the teachers and students of the school to greet him from outside the college.

As soon as he saw Philio and the others, he strode forward and grabbed Philio's hand tightly with trembling hands.

This old man, who has been in charge of the academy in Salo for more than 20 years, is enveloped in great happiness at this moment.

The past week can be called an unprecedented glorious moment for Salo Academy.

Even in the early years when there were special batch students competing on behalf of the college, Salo, a coastal city with a small population and a not very developed economy among the 16 major towns, often failed to reach the top 16 or top 8 of the individual competition.

The best result in the team competition is only the semi-finals.

Nowadays, Philio almost single-handedly won the personal championship and led the team to win the team championship, bringing great glory to the college and even the entire city.

Such achievements are destined to leave a mark in the history of the college.

Looking at his most beloved disciple, Muriel fell in love with him more and more.

In the crowd, Teacher Milia’s warm gaze always fell on Filio and the others, never shifting away for a moment.

"Let's go! Enter the school! Today the college is open to the public. Let's celebrate together for our team, the heroes of the college and Sara!"

"Ka la la la"

Accompanied by Muriel's words, the large iron door outside the college slowly opened.

The college, which is normally open to current teachers, students and alumni by appointment, today makes an exception and is open to all citizens across the city who are willing to participate in the celebrations.

The cheerful atmosphere makes people feel warmer than the hot summer days.

The entire city turned into a sea of ​​joy at the long-lost and unprecedented honor that belonged to the Pokémon Academy.

From the dawn of dawn to the sunset, for a whole day, two trophies, one large and one small, were placed on the podium of the playground of Salo Academy, receiving everyone's attention.

------------------

"Filio, you've been working hard all day, sit down. There are no outsiders now, we are all our own, feel free to do it."

When the lanterns came on, the celebrating crowd gradually dispersed. In the principal's office, Muriel's eyes were full of kindness.

"Huh... To be honest, Master, this day has exhausted me. I never thought that celebrations could be so tiring."

Sitting down on the sofa, Filio was indeed very tired.

One stop lasted almost a whole day, talking to various people I knew or didn’t know, and receiving congratulations and encouragement.

As an individual championship winner and the ace of the team, he attracted more attention than anyone else and was the undoubted center of attention. Even lunch could only be done in a hurry.

The little dream monster, little Eevee and the big-mouthed baby were all unbearable and hid in the elf ball.

Now, without outsiders, the little guys who had been recuperating for a long time jumped out and wandered around Filio and Milia.

"I already have ideas about the rewards for Antoine and Abe, but on your side, I want to ask your own opinion. What do you want? As long as it's from the academy or I can get it, it doesn't matter.

.Your team championship this time has helped the college obtain an additional education allocation of 30 million alliance coins per year for the next three years. Thinking about the expressions of those old guys in Miare, I was so happy that I could not sleep.

."

There were only Thornton, Milia and Filio in front of him, and Muriel did not hide it at all, nor did he hide his ecstasy at overcoming Miare's colleagues.

"Actually, Master, I don't have much idea. The previous individual championship rewards and the team championship bonuses of 1.5 million alliance coins per person have made me quite satisfied. Moreover, being able to win honors for the academy and our Sarao is very satisfying.

It’s also a very satisfying and fulfilling thing for me.”

Philio nodded honestly, very modestly.

"You kid...when I ask you to make a request, you always say nothing, but when you do things, you are not ambiguous at all."

Muriel stepped forward and rubbed Filio's hair vigorously.

Three generations of masters and apprentices have formed a certain kind of inheritance in this regard, although it seems a bit dishonest and unreliable.

"If you don't tell me, then I will make the decision for you. This Bogaman has been with you for more than two years, right? Its talent is one of the most talented Pokémon in the entire academy.

Now, how about making it your fourth Pokémon?"

After the massage made him feel comfortable, Muriel let go of his hand, looked at Filio's neat hair becoming messy, and said with satisfaction.

"The academy will bear all its daily expenses for the next two years, including your purchase of high-end energy cubes for it, as well as a good mysterious water drop, which I bought from Miare."

There are two types of Pokémon in the Sara Academy Breeding House.

One type is Pokémon that have been seriously injured or abandoned by unknown persons. Sara Academy has taken the initiative to take care of some of these Pokémon.

The other type is a potential stock carefully cultivated by the college, specifically used to reward teachers and students who have contributed to the college.

Bogaman undoubtedly belongs to the latter group, and is one of the best among them.

It is obviously impossible to say that Philio is not moved, but he still has his own ideas about Muriel's proposal.

After arranging his hair, he gently patted the little heads of the big-mouthed boy and dream monster who were causing trouble for him, and said in a deep voice:

"Master, it's like this. I'm not in a hurry about Bogaman, because it and I still have one thing to do. If this thing is done, I will take the initiative to ask it to become a partner."
p>

"Is there something to do? What is it?"

Muriel frowned slightly and looked at Thornton, who was wandering aside. A glare made him tremble.

Teacher Hei Tiezhu, who is usually fearless, only shows respect to Principal Muriel, which can be regarded as a tribute to others.

"That's it, Master. I'm going to take Bogaman to the protected area, find the hippo beast from back then, and settle this past for it. The heart disease still needs to be treated from the source."

Raising his head and looking at Muriel, Filio said seriously.

"Of course, don't worry, I know what you are worried about. I will be very measured and will not make things difficult for you and the reserve. Bogaman is not the kind of Pokémon with a bad personality."

After some thought, he added.

------------------

June 13, morning, Salo-Biyi Nature Reserve, Area A.

"So...Teacher Thornton, please come with me."

Looking at Thornton who was following closely beside him silently, Philio smiled apologetically.

Teacher Hei Tiezhu was really working hard these days. He got up the earliest and went to bed the latest. He finally returned to Salo, and was captured by Principal Muriel and came to accompany Filio on errands.

"It's okay. If we can solve the problem of that little guy Pogaman, then it won't be in vain."

Thornton's face was expressionless, but his brows were a little tired, but when he looked at Bogaman, who was running quickly and was very interested in the rare wild natural scenery, his eyes also had a little more tenderness.

This little guy was extremely sensible and smart both in the breeding house and during training at the academy, which made him like him very much.

"Let's go and find those rangers you know."

......

......

"Mr. Luo Kai, and some seniors, good morning! I brought Bogaman and the others here specially. I want to find the hippo beast outside area A. Is it convenient now?"

Holding the hand of Luo Kai, who he had met in Miare two days ago, Filio was very polite.

It stands to reason that for safety reasons, after the academy breeding house or other organizations and individual Pokémon are handed over to the protected area, they should not search for them in this way.

The reserve is willing to make an exception for this because of Philio's previous achievements and the guarantees of several rangers.

"You're welcome, Filio. We can trust you. Those who are willing to risk their lives for everyone in the reserve will definitely not do anything extraordinary. Come with me, it's still a little far away."

Luo Kai held Filio with one hand, gently raised it with the other, patted his tight arm muscles, and smiled brightly.

Behind him, the rangers in Area A, especially the seniors who graduated from Salo Academy, also cast admiring glances.

Although they lived far away in the mountains and forests, they also knew about Philio's victory in the youth championship.

Especially the deeds of winning the team championship for the college made several alumni very excited. If it were not for their duties, they would have gone back to Salo yesterday to participate in the celebration.

Not long after, several flying Pokémon left the station and disappeared into the vast mountains.

......

......

"According to Mr. Luo Kai's information, the area where this hippopotamus lives in the wild is here. Pogaman, are you a little nervous?"

Gently picking up the little penguin, whose walking posture was a little stiff, Filio asked softly.

The three Pokémon who were walking with him also came forward and asked about their welfare with concern.

On the contrary, the two mosquito-repellent incense gentlemen following behind were a little confused.

They were just born at that time and were well protected by Bogaman. In fact, they already had little memory of the hippopotamus and that incident.

However, since it is something that Big Brother Bogaman wants to do, the two of them will definitely support it fully.

After all, although there is no evolution, Pogaman can be said to have watched the two of them grow up to where they are today. The development of attribute energy, physical exercise, and use of skills, every bit of their growth actually has waves.

Garman’s care and help.

"Bojia!"

With his feet dangling in the air and being held by Philio, Pogaman nodded slightly.

The memory of that day that was almost swallowed by quicksand spreads more and more clearly in my mind as I get closer to the instigator of that day.

Between life and death, there is always great terror.

It is something that is hard to describe and difficult to truly overcome, especially when you experience this kind of terror at a very young age when you can remember it.

This will be a very profound psychological shadow.

Philio, who was deeply touched by this, didn't say much. He just hugged Bogaman's hand and used a little force to transfer his body temperature to the other party.

"Bojia..."

Gently patting Philio's hand and arm, the little penguin raised his head seriously and looked at this "good brother" who had been accompanying and helping him since he was a child.

"Of course, I will accompany you. If you need it, I can also help you beat up that big guy."

Feeling the complex emotions contained in Bogaman's cry, Philio smiled and agreed generously.

"Marge!"

"Buyi!"

"Qiduo!"

The three little ones also nodded vigorously.

Regarding Bogaman's enemies, they also share a common hatred.

"Bojia!"

Bogaman tried his best to maintain his composure, but his grinning mouth and subconsciously waving feet revealed his true mood at the moment.

------------------

"Kaba..."

"Bojia?"

On a barren mountain, two Pokémon, one big and one small, stared at each other.

The hippopotamus, who felt deeply guilty for his accidental mistake, immediately recognized the Bogaman in front of him, as well as the two former mosquito-repellent tadpoles behind him.

And the human who sacrificed his life to save three Pokémon.

It always regretted that it had no chance to apologize in person. It immediately left the fruits it collected, ran over, stopped not far from Filio and his party, and buried its head deeply.

Seeing that Bogaman didn't respond, it weakly raised its head, slowly walked to Bogaman, lay down, and expressed its apology again.

"Bojia..."

Feeling extremely puzzled by this direction, Pogaman turned around in a daze and walked away.

The two mosquito coils and the hippopotamus lying on the ground raised their heads blankly, watching its back disappear into the distance.

"Kaba..."

The hippopotamus, which has a gentle temperament among its kind, closed its big mouth in frustration and lay there without wanting to get up.

"Don't take it too seriously, Hippopotamus. What it thinks and what you think are actually two different things. You can wait for us here for a while, okay? I'll go find Bogaman. Mr. Mosquito Repellent. You guys also wait here for a while."<

/p>

After touching the head of the hippopotamus, Philio, who was not surprised by this development, shook his head, gave a sigh of relief, walked away, and ran towards Bogaman who was walking away.

------------------

"Do you think that Hippopotamus is completely different from what you think? It is neither a ferocious monster nor a powerful monster?"

In the woods, Philio caught up with the swaying Bogaman in a few steps, picked it up while it was still struggling slightly, found a cool and secluded place under a tree, and sat down with his back against the tree trunk.
p>

"Bojia!"

The little penguin nodded seriously.

Whether it's for "revenge" or "self-protection", it has worked hard for so long under the extreme lack of sense of security, and suddenly feels that its behavior is a bit ridiculous.

The Pokémon and its power that I felt terrifying when I was young are already very weak to me when I grow up, and can even be said to be not worth mentioning.

The sense of security returned in a strange way, and what replaced the uneasiness was a kind of emptiness.

Seeing its mood at the moment, Philio, who had been prepared for this, took out a small telescope and handed it to Pogaman.

"Take it and look at the tree on the hillside in the distance."

Pointing to the hill not far away, a thick old pine tree had been growing there for unknown years.

"Bojia?"

Picking up the telescope with hesitation, Bogaman took a look and wondered what kind of medicine Philio was selling in the gourd.

"Do you think it's quite big and clear?"

"Bojia!"

"Then what if you don't need this and let you see it yourself?"

"Bojia..."

"So, you are so smart, you should understand what I am going to say, right? We have been together for so many years, and I will not treat you like I did to Little Dream Demon, Little Eevee, because I know that you can figure out everything.

."

After touching Bogaman's head and giving him some inspiration, Philio stood up, grabbed his friends who were still confused, and walked back.

"Come back when you understand what this telescope and everything you see through it mean to you."

......

......

I don’t know how long it took, but the hippopotamus became more and more frightened next to me.

"Bojia!"

Bogaman came staggeringly from a distance.

"Do you understand?"

Philio, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, raised his head and looked at it with a half-smile.

"Bojia!"

The little penguin came closer, patted the hippopotamus gently, then nodded vigorously to Philio, and handed the binoculars back.

Through this telescope, it saw many things.

But more importantly, it sees its own heart.

In the past, I only saw the only light of the hippopotamus beast, regarded it as a fireball that devoured myself, and squeezed myself endlessly for a sense of security.

Now, it realizes that, as Philio said at the time, the hippopotamus is just an insignificant "one" among countless lights and infinitely beautiful scenery.

After getting rid of it, what you should feel is not emptiness, but joy.

A joy of facing a wider world and ushering in more real growth.

In the vibrant natural space, it completes reconciliation with the past and, more importantly, reconciliation with itself.

"Growing up means seeing farther and more real scenery. I am very happy for you that you can understand this."

Philio was very pleased when he gently tapped Bogaman's forehead.

This is a plan he has been brewing since Miare, and today it has finally come to fruition.

Seeing that the depression between his brows had finally completely dissipated, Bogaman became relieved. A topic that had been put on hold for a long time was finally put on Philio's own agenda.

"So, Pogaman, are you willing to embark on a new journey with me and everyone? It may not be so beautiful, and it may not be so smooth, but I hope to go with you.

Let’s go through it, experience it together, and let it get closer to our expectations together.”

When their eyes met, Philio stretched out his hand.
