The necromancer of the Pokémon world

Chapter 61 Hoenn Little Chef

"Boss? Restaurant? What's going on here? Did we wander onto the wrong set?!"

Before Lin Ye could respond, Tan Xiaoshi continued speaking on his own, and the Snow Fairy had no choice but to translate:

"You have no idea what happened during those days at the breeding center. Watching those Pokémon eat those awful energy cubes every day made me think that if I were to make them, they would definitely taste a hundred times better!"

Those are all too rigid, lacking any creativity! If you ask me, energy cubes should at least be visually appealing, fragrant, and delicious! Just being nutritionally balanced isn't enough!

And what about the heat! They have absolutely no idea about heat control! Some parts need to be simmered over low heat, while others need to be stir-fried over high heat, but they just use a machine to cook everything in one pot, ruining the food!

Charcoal Servant became more and more excited as he spoke, and the flames above his head flickered.

"I've already thought it through. The first thing I'll do when we get to our restaurant is to revamp the kitchen!"

Our goal is to become the top-tier restaurant in Hoenn, attracting gourmets from all over the world!

"Boss, what is it saying?" Gastly poked its head out and asked.

"It probably wants to be a chef."

Lin Ye took a deep breath to calm himself down, and then, with the Snow Fairy's diligent efforts in communication and translation, he finally learned the whole story!

It turns out that the little Tanjiro in front of us is a cooking enthusiast. To coax her to come over, the animal shelter said that the trainer they arranged for her was a restaurant owner, and they needed an excellent chef like her.

"Um, Tanjiro, I don't know what those people at the breeding farm told you, but I have to tell you the truth: I don't run a restaurant!"

"(=ﾟДﾟ=)"

Lin Ye's eyes darted around, and he said, "Although I don't own a restaurant, it doesn't mean I can't support your dream."

"How so?"

"I'll ask you, what's the most important basic skill in cooking?"

"Sword skills!" Tan Xiaoshi said decisively.

"Yeah, right? Do you have a knife? Look at you, you don't even have a hair!"

Upon hearing this, Tan Xiaoshi raised his hand to touch the flame on his head, thought for a moment, and said:

"I can use your human kitchen knives, although it's a bit awkward and always prevents me from performing at my best."

"So, working in a restaurant kitchen, can you really become the best chef? Or is it the opposite of your dream?"

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you want to be the best chef? The key is not how many dishes you can make, but to truly elevate your culinary skills, especially to have a good knife that resonates with your heart."

"That makes sense! But where can I find such a knife?"

"Come look for it here!"

Lin Ye took out his phone and showed pictures and videos of Azure Flame Blade Demon!

"Look at these two swords, how about they? With them in your own hands, you'll definitely be able to achieve the legendary state of man and sword as one!"

Moreover, you possess the fire attribute, allowing you to heat your own food, and your control over temperature and heat is naturally excellent.

At that time, wouldn't you be the "Little Chef of Fengyuan" and "Master Chef" in the eyes of diners?

"If we open a restaurant then, wouldn't that be twice as effective and a breeze?"

After listening, Tan Xiaoshi's head was ablaze with excitement, his eyes gleaming, and he eagerly pressed for more information:

"Could it be that I can also possess a pair of swords like this after I evolve?!"

Samurai is already a rare Pokémon, and the "Cursed Armor" is an extremely rare and highly sought-after item. Therefore, there are very few Azure Blade Ghosts, and Samurai himself has never seen one.

Lin Ye immediately pulled out another video of Tan Xiaoshi successfully evolving into Azure Flame Blade Demon using the "Cursed Armor".

"Alright, alright, alright~ I'm definitely going to be a 'Master Chef'! Where am I supposed to find this armor?"

"This armor is extremely rare, but I just happened to acquire one a while ago!"

Lin Ye took out the "Cursed Armor," making Tan Xiaoshi drool!

"Boss, I think you're right. Let me evolve now!"

Lin Ye put away the "Cursed Armor": "Evolution is not that simple. If the foundation is not solid, the improvement after evolution will be limited."

Therefore, we need to solidify your energy level before using the "Cursed Armor" to evolve, so that we can truly reach the supreme state of perfect harmony between man and weapon!

"So sexy~"

"Hoenn Little Chef" stood up respectfully: "Boss, I understand. You've really gone to great lengths to train me!"

Rest assured, I will practice diligently and strive to become a "Master Chef" as soon as possible. Then I will definitely make your restaurant famous throughout Fengyuan.

Ling Linye nodded. Fortunately, he had a sudden inspiration, a flash of brilliance, and a burst of creativity this time, which allowed him to keep this eccentric charcoal servant in check.

Once it evolves into the Azure Flame Blade Demon, it can be contracted through necromancy.

In fact, the little charcoal servant in front of us has already received some training and has now reached the "excellent" level.

Lin Ye plans to first cultivate it to the peak of "Excellent" level, and then break through the "Professional" level bottleneck directly through evolution, killing two birds with one stone!

In fact, although Tanjiro is purely fire-type, he has two completely different evolutionary paths!

One is to evolve into Crimson Armor Knight with Fire and Psychic attributes through "Celebration Armor", and the other is to evolve into Azure Flame Blade Demon with Ghost attributes through "Curse Armor"!

Both of these Pokémon are very popular in the original games, but Lin Ye prefers Blademaster. Before transmigrating, when he played the game, he exclaimed, "How can there be such a cool Pokémon?"

Moreover, the Azure Flame Blade Demon is indeed more useful, and now that he has become a necromancer, it's a perfect match for him.

Of course, the most urgent task now is to see what abilities Tanjiro has mastered.

After "Hoenn Chef" demonstrated its moves, Lin Ye discovered that it had mastered the following moves: Glare, Spark, Startle, Purge, Flame Vortex, Phosphorus Fire, Shadow of the Night, Charged Flame, Light of Wonder, and even "Destiny Bond".

For its young age, it has already accumulated a great deal of knowledge, which shows that it has a strong talent for cultivation.

But this incredibly talented Tan Xiaoshi doesn't practice martial arts; instead, he's looking at recipes. It's really quite absurd.

Fortunately, the trainer was Lin Ye, and he felt he could still manage!

However, since Charcoal Sprite is currently a pure fire type, it cannot enter the shadow and can only stay in the Poké Ball before being brought back by Lin Ye.

Moreover, since Charcoal Servant was not obtained through normal channels, it is not easy to use it normally, so it can only stay in the ball for the time being.

Fortunately, its container is a luxury sphere, which has a large and luxurious interior, so it's not too cramped.

But seeing all the seniors able to freely slip into Lin Ye's shadow, the little guy couldn't help but feel envious and looked forward to evolving into a ghost form in the future.
