Pokémon: I am really a civilian trainer

When people have a common secret, the distance between them will naturally be shortened.

This is the case with Mark and Old Man Aaron.

When Mark took the initiative to expose his [Power of Clear Creek] and when Old Man Aaron exposed the basement of his home, the relationship between the two was no longer simply that of elder and junior, but became a pair of close friends regardless of age.

Old man Aaron no longer acted like an elder as before, and would occasionally organize his words to put pressure on Mark.

Mark would occasionally chat and joke with Old Man Aaron, telling him some harmless little jokes.

In the early morning, Old Man Aaron, who had been busy all day, was sleeping soundly in the room, while Mark and Caterpie had just finished their morning exercise and returned from the forest.

Specifically, they danced a natural dance in the forest for dozens of minutes, picked wild fruits on the way back, and tested the multiplication formulas of Caterpie.

Normally, Mark would not disturb Uncle Aaron's rest out of courtesy, but the relationship between the two was no longer the same as before.

Mark patted Uncle Aaron's shoulder. The latter rolled over and over on the bed as if he had a nightmare, muttering "I won't jump anymore, I won't jump even if you kill me", and then suddenly opened his eyes.

When he found out it was this kid named Mark, Old Man Aaron rolled his eyes, turned around and closed his eyes again.

Just yesterday evening, he followed Mark to Clear Creek Forest with some doubts. After Mark and Caterpie worked together for more than three hours, he finally completed a dance related to the forest.

After completing the dance, he vaguely felt a certain connection between the forest and nature.

Of course, that's not the point.

The point is that after finishing this dance, he felt like every bone in his body was falling apart.

This kind of dance is obviously not something he can handle at his age.

"Uncle Aaron, didn't we agree yesterday that we would go to the village to plant the first batch of trees today? You also contacted Cody and asked him to bring some plant Pokémons from the tomato garden to assist in planting. I don't mind that, but it's better not to let Cody wait too long."

"Hiss, hiss!"

Caterpie on the side also tried to persuade Old Man Aaron.

Old man Aaron, who was lying on the bed, suddenly stood up and glared at Mark and the Caterpillar. When he found that they both looked normal, he curled his lips.

Old Man Aaron said unhappily, "I think you are deliberately trying to make trouble for me. You usually disappear and you can't find me anymore. Now you want to order me around, so you stay here on purpose. Humph, go get me that can of Moo Moo Milk on the table!"

Seeing this, Mark immediately handed over the Moo Moo milk on the table.

After gulping down a few gulps, Old Man Aaron felt that the soreness in his body had recovered a little and he also felt more energetic. He took another big sip, then licked the milk stains on his lips with his tongue and burped.

Old Man Aaron glanced at the indifferent Mark and curled his lips. Then he looked at Caterpie that was staring at him intently and took another sip.

Old Man Aaron looked at the drooling Caterpie and said, "Speaking of which, this Moo Moo Milk is really delicious. It is rich in trace elements required by many Pokémons. I was originally planning to prepare a box for you, but because of your troublesome master, I can't get it!"

As Old Man Aaron spoke, he took out the Poké Ball beside the bed, released his strange power, and handed the half-drunk Moo Moo Milk to the strange power.

"Your brain isn't working very well, so I'll give you the remaining half can of Moo Moo Milk. It's just the right thing to replenish your brain!"

Guili took the Moo Moo milk in confusion, scratched his head, and saw Caterpie looking at him pitifully, so he handed the Moo Moo milk over.

Caterpie didn't want it, but continued to look at Old Man Aaron with a pleading look.

After being looked at pitifully by Caterpie for a while, Old Man Aaron finally couldn't resist and unscrewed the can of Moo Moo Milk and handed it to Caterpie, saying, "Drink it, drink it. Learn more about your master's strengths and don't always learn his weaknesses. You just follow your master and make trouble for him. It's a real worry."

After Old Man Aaron finished speaking, he glanced at Mark again.

Seeing that Mark was still smiling and well-behaved, he snorted unhappily and said, "Okay, okay, there are still dozens of cans of Moo Moo milk in the cupboard. If you are hungry, go get it yourself. It will also be good for your Wimpod to drink some."

Mark nodded slightly, and while checking the speed at which Caterpie's experience bar increased after drinking Moo Moo's milk, he asked, "Has the big milk tank from the Pokémon Center been delivered?"

Old Man Aaron did not hide it and said, "Well, Miltank sent three, and there was one each for Glee and Happiny. They said they would build a supporting breeding house next to the Pokémon Center. No one has been managing it these days, so I'm basically in charge of all the milk from Miltank.

You still have your Pokémons to drink, so drink as much as you can now. After a while, when the elf center officially opens, you may not have this opportunity.

By the way, don't drink it all, leave some for the children in the village."

Mark nodded, and without any politeness to Old Man Aaron, he took half of the Moo Moo milk from the cupboard and put it into his backpack.

Old Man Aaron watched Mark packing his backpack, and suddenly asked with some emotion: "When are you leaving?"

"Um?"

Seeing Mark's puzzled expression, Old Man Aaron said, "It's just traveling, traveling and exploring around the world. Pokémon Academy will start in three months, but you won't really wait that long, right?"

Both Mapes two hundred years ago and his grandfather had traveled around the world when they were young, and he felt that Mark was similar.

Thinking about it carefully, Old Man Aaron felt inexplicably lost.

He is already old, and he doesn't know if he will be able to see Mark when he returns next time after he leaves.

In addition, although Mark possesses the [Power of Clear Stream] and Caterpie has the potential to be a master-level Pokémon, the process of exchanging that potential is full of twists and turns, and he really doesn't know how far Mark can go.

In his sight, Mark tilted his head towards him, with a puzzled expression on his face.

Then he saw Mark said, "Why do you want to travel around the world?"

"You disappear all the time, don't you plan to travel?"

Mark did not hide his future plans, and said: "I don't have such plans at the moment, and I may not have them in the future. My idea for the future is to find a way to expand the scope of Clear Creek Forest and increase the theoretical limit of [Clear Creek Power]. Even if I want to travel in the future, the distance of the trip will depend on the range of the flying Pokémons. It can be considered a short-term trip, and I will be back in a few days."

Old Man Aaron raised his eyebrows and said, "You said before that you wanted to go to school as a day student. I thought you wanted to go to school as a day student while traveling. Doesn't that mean you don't plan to leave Clear Creek Village? If I plan to open a dojo in Clear Creek Village, will you stay and help?"

Mark pinched his chin lightly: "My current future plans do not have any ideas related to the gym, but if you need it, Uncle Aaron, I can help."

Old Man Aaron stared at Mark for a while, then suddenly stretched out his hand and patted Mark on the shoulder.

"Okay, okay, okay!"

Although he guessed that Mark would most likely disappear and become untraceable, he still felt very happy.

"Then let's go and plant some trees. I want to see how much of a change it will bring to Clear Creek Village if it is integrated into the Clear Creek Forest..."
