Chapter 124 Card Making: Wife Beast
"Night Phoenix, what's the use of this flower?"
Gu Ye gently pinched the strange flower between his fingertips, examining it carefully.
The flower exudes two completely opposite auras, as if yin and yang have been forcibly blended together.
The flower head is brimming with a rich, almost tangible yang energy, warm and gentle, as if enveloped by the midday sun. The warmth flows slowly from the fingertips into the limbs and bones, bringing peace of mind.
But the branches beneath the flower heads were bitterly cold, with wisps of chilling air seeping out, like the cold air spreading from the deepest abyss, making one's fingertips numb.
One yang and one yin, one warm and one cold, coexist in a strange yet harmonious way on the same plant.
Ye Xihuang leaned gracefully against the sofa, her gaze fixed on the virtual screen in front of her. Without even raising her head, she replied indifferently:
"It's of little use to you, but it's of great benefit to me."
Gu Ye glanced at her screen subconsciously.
A lively family drama was playing on the screen, and the dramatic and suspenseful plot was reaching its climax.
He couldn't help but chuckle softly:
"So even ghosts watch soap operas... like 'The Temptation to Go Home'."
Ye Xihuang glanced at him indifferently, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Gu Ye smiled and handed over the flowers in his hand:
"for you."
She casually picked up the flowers and glanced up at Gu Ye.
"Given your current condition, you can have another card made."
Gu Ye was taken aback upon hearing this, then his face lit up with joy, "Really!"
Night Phoenix nodded. "That's certainly possible. Make another card; your corruption value is still within acceptable limits."
Seeing that she said so, Gu Ye thought it was feasible. If he could finish making the Ash deck sooner, he would have more time to continue making other decks.
Upon arriving at the spiritual space, Gu Ye is preparing to create his wife beast – Gardevoir.
Gardevoir was born from a tiny Ralts egg, initially a timid and sensitive baby Pokémon that liked to hide in the shadows and observe humans.
It possesses the innate superpower to sense the emotions and feelings of others. During a chance encounter in the forest, it was drawn to Ash's pure and passionate courage and gentleness, and quietly followed in his footsteps.
Watching him fight for his friends and run for his dreams, his unwavering determination deeply moved it, making it, for the first time, want to protect someone.
In each crisis, Ralts silently helped Ash avoid danger with its weak psychic abilities, refusing to leave even when injured. As its resolve grew stronger, it evolved into Kirlia, becoming more agile and possessing enhanced telepathy.
It could clearly sense Ash's joy, tension, and resentment, and understood even more clearly that its purpose was to stand by Ash's side when he encountered a powerful enemy, was in trouble, and was on the verge of emotional collapse.
Kirlia unleashed its full power, evolving into Gardevoir in a dazzling light. Dressed in a pristine white gown, it now possessed the power to protect everything.
Not only does it possess powerful Psychic abilities and Fairy-type moves, but it's also willing to risk its life for a Trainer it trusts, thus becoming one of Ash's most reliable partners.
In gym battles, league conferences, and regional adventures, Gardevoir always calmly and gently cooperates with Ash, using Foresight to avoid fatal attacks, Psychic to defeat powerful enemies, and Moonblast to illuminate the darkness.
Unlike other Pokémon that are flamboyant and overt, it always protects Ash in the most delicate way, comforting his heart when he is tired.
[It offered companionship when he was lost, and stood up for him without reservation when he needed strength; its entire life was inextricably linked to Ash's journey.]
From a timid Ralts to a Gardevoir willing to sacrifice everything for its bonds, it is no longer just a Pokémon that survives by telepathy, but one that has people it wants to protect and promises it wants to keep.
Through countless sunrises and sunsets, Gardevoir accompanied Ash across various regions, witnessing his growth, failures, and rebirths.
Its life was made complete by Ash, and Ash's journey was made even more gentle and reassuring by Gardevoir's silent yet unwavering protection.
From the moment it met Ash, its entire life was destined to be dedicated to fighting, protecting, and shining for this irreplaceable bond.
The few hundred words fully express the feelings between Gardevoir and Ash.
With the consent of Heaven.
A card, shimmering with a faint purple light and exquisitely detailed like a work of art, slowly took shape and gently landed in Gu Ye's hand.
