Night finally arrived.
The earth was shrouded in darkness, and the entire Viridian Forest became pitch black. A cold wind blew, and Fuyuki shivered involuntarily.
Outside, there were occasional rustling sounds, probably from wild Pokémon moving through the grass and trees.
Fuyuki huddled in a tree hollow, too afraid to move.
Wild Pokémon were extremely dangerous. If he encountered a Pikachu, it would be alright, but if he encountered a Beedrill or Arbok, he'd probably have to delete his account and start over.
Fuyuki felt hungry, tired, and cold.
With a slight thought, a light blue panel slowly appeared before him.
This code, adapted from an online novel and personally typed by Fuyuki in his previous life, was now fully displayed before him.
[Shock Value System: A magical cheat system that allows you to gain currency by shocking others, which can then be used to exchange for various items and tools in the shop.]
This is the cheat system of the protagonist in "Reincarnated into Another World, Become Stronger by Shocking Others."
The protagonist in that book could use this system to exchange for various abilities and techniques in the system shop, thus becoming stronger.
However, perhaps due to world merging, all those techniques and abilities have disappeared.
In their place are various items that conform to the Pokémon world's lore.
For example: MooMoo Milk, Flying Cloud Ice Cream, various berries, Energy Cubes, Poké Balls, healing items, attack boosters, evolution stones, etc.
Besides these, the shop also has many strange items.
Like high-end fabric sofas, various wallpapers, and luxurious double beds.
Or some black technologies unique to the Pokémon world.
[Secret Power: A magical power that can be used to excavate mountains and tree trunks to create a secret base.]
[Space Technology: Developed using the power of Palkia's space, this technology can compress space and increase storage capacity.] At this moment, Fuyuki only wanted to exchange for a warm cup of Moo Moo Milk to fill his stomach.
But exchanging for a can of Moo Moo Milk required 5 Shock Points. He had only been in this world for less than a year and had been in a dazed infant state, with no opportunity to acquire points.
Surrounded by a dangerous forest, without food, and in the cold environment…
Would he perhaps die here?
Fuyuki could clearly feel his strength gradually draining away.
Cold…so cold…
Fuyuki's consciousness gradually blurred.
He didn't know how much time had passed—perhaps only a few minutes, or perhaps several hours.
In his hazy state, Fuyuki suddenly felt his body gradually warming up, as if a warm, furry embrace had enveloped him.
"Mommy…" Fuyuki murmured softly, almost unconsciously.
Beneath the ancient tree of Viridian, Entei looked down at the human cub burrowing into its furry belly, a complex mix of emotions welling up inside.
Did this human cub mistake it for its mother?
The lifeless figure in the car suddenly flashed through Entei's mind.
'Your mother is dead,' Entei thought.
She lost her life protecting Pokémon from those despicable Pokémon hunters.
Thinking of this, Entei's eyes filled with pity, compassion, and a more complex emotion as it looked at the human cub.
It sighed silently, then cradled the human cub beneath it, trying to warm it with its own body heat.
The night passed in silence.
The next morning, when Fuyuki opened its eyes, it saw a large, furry face before it.
"Whoa!!!" Fuyuki jumped in fright.
The next second, the eyes on that large face, which had been tightly closed, suddenly opened, revealing a pair of majestic golden-red eyes that stared straight at him.
That was… Entei?!
Entei had returned? And was still using his body heat to help him through this cold night?!
Fuyuki froze on the spot.
Just then, his stomach suddenly growled.
Entei's gaze slowly moved down, then settled on his stomach.
This human cub was hungry.
It said nothing, simply stood up, shook off the dew-covered fur, placed the cub in the tree hollow, and then ran off into the distance.
Hungry…so hungry!
Fuyuki, who hadn't eaten or drunk anything for over ten hours, felt like he was starving.
But he couldn't care less. He quickly scrambled to the edge of the tree hollow and peered out.
Where had Entei gone again? Although he didn't know why Entei was treating him this way, Fuyuki knew perfectly well that he could only rely on Entei now!
If Entei ignored him, he would surely die here today.
Entei didn't go far. It quickly found a wild berry tree, picked a few berries, and returned to the tree hollow.
Entei hadn't even gotten close when it saw the human cub peeking out of the tree hollow, looking around as if searching for something, waiting for something.
The moment their eyes met in mid-air, Entei clearly saw the human cub's eyes light up.
Was he looking for him? Entei couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
It carried the berries back to the tree hollow and placed them in front of the human.
Berry, an extremely magical fruit in the Pokémon world, contains very rich nutrients, and many Pokémon eat it.
Entei had gone to find food for him!
Pokémon are truly intelligent creatures!
Fuyuki glanced gratefully at Entei, then, as if a thirsty person had found water, it picked up a berry with its two little paws, used its still-growing teeth to peel off the skin, and frantically sucked out the juice.
Entei, like a large cat, lay on the ground, its massive head casually resting on its two front paws, watching the human cub eat the berry without blinking.
With one berry down its throat, Fuyuki felt much more energetic.
It let out a satisfied burp, then looked at Entei, a thought suddenly occurring to it.
Entei had gone to great lengths to find the berry for it; hadn't it eaten anything yet?
Fuyuki picked up a berry in front of it and offered it to Entei to thank it for saving its life.
Although Entei had found the berry, Fuyuki couldn't just eat it all himself; that would be too impolite.
Seeing this, Entei froze on the spot.
It stared blankly into the bright, sparkling eyes of the human cub.
This child… was sharing its food with it?
