Cana: "Daddy~."
Nate had no idea why she was laughing.
Scrolling back through the chat history, he found his earlier ssage:
"Listen to Daddy, stop drinking."
Turns out she was just playing along with his joke and calling him "Daddy."
Sigma Male: "Awake? How are you feeling?"
He was a bit concerned about her condition. After all, it was her first ti, and things had gotten a little out of hand last night.
Cana: "I'm fine, not hurting much. Daddy's amazing~ ??."
Cana: "But quitting drinking? Impossible! ??."
True to form for soone who started drinking alone at 13, the idea of giving up alcohol wasn't even on the table.
Nate wasn't going to force her, but he still worried about the toll heavy drinking would take on her body.
Sigma Male: "What does alcohol an to you?"
Cana: "It's the water of life!"
Her quick reply left Nate speechless.
Cana: "If Daddy promises not to touch my 'pandas' again, I'll quit drinking! ??."
Sigma Male: "You win!"
Cana's boldness never ceased to amaze him. Every so often, she'd throw out a jaw-dropping comnt.
Cana: "You big perv! ??."
Cana: "Looking forward to our next date~ ??."
Sigma Male: "Get so rest. And try to cut back on the drinking—it's bad for you to overdo it."
Cana: "Got it~ You're just like Daddy, so annoying! ?????."
Sigma Male: "Once a Daddy, always a Daddy! You'll have to call that in private forever! ??."
Cana: "How about I start calling you that at the guild too? I'm fine with it~."
Sigma Male: "..."
...
Nate arrived back at his apartnt while casually chatting with Cana.
Once there, he resud creating new Pokémon. Having gained plenty of experience, he was now much faster at designing them.
The real challenge wasn't creating the Pokémon themselves but replicating their moves.
Building a Celestial doll? Simple. But customizing the moves to suit each Pokémon? That was labor-intensive.
So moves were especially tricky. For example:
- Jigglypuff's 'Sing' required sleep magic.
- Abra's 'Teleport' needed teleportation magic. While Nate's Flying Thunder God technique could work, it felt like overkill for a simple Pokémon.
- Ditto's 'Transform' required transformation magic.
In short, most of the difficulty ca from moves with unique chanics.
After three long hours, he finally finished a new Pokémon: Rattata.
Just then, a private ssage popped up.
Ur: "Nate, reserve magic has hit the warning threshold!"
Sigma Male: "Soone drained the magic bank?!"
Ur: "Not pure magic—it's Celestial energy."
Seeing this, Nate thought to himself: 'It's happening. Finally.'
He'd known this mont was coming—Celestial energy wouldn't hold up forever.
On one hand, it was needed to create the Celestial Pokémon dolls. On the other, every ti a Pokémon leveled up, the system awarded Celestial energy.
When a Pokémon reached certain levels, the accumulated Celestial energy would trigger its evolution, changing its appearance.
Sigma Male: "Got it. I'll handle it right away."
After replying to Ur, Nate prepared to visit the Celestial Spirit World and have a talk with the Celestial Spirit King.
The king had invited him multiple tis as a guest. This ti, he had no choice but to go.
Before heading out, Nate decided to inform the Celestial Spirit King.
Sigma Male: "Celestial Spirit King, I'd like to visit the Celestial Spirit World. I have a favor to ask of you."
Celestial Spirit King: "So, you're finally willing to co? I've been waiting for so long."
Not really, Nate thought. A single day in the Celestial Spirit World is equivalent to three months in the human world.
He decided not to bring Lucy along this ti and sent her a ssage.
Recently, Lucy had been busy entertaining her counterpart, Edolas Lucy, taking her everywhere. Nate wondered how much money she had left.
Lucy: "What? You're going to the Celestial Spirit World? I'm coming! I absolutely have to go!"
Sigma Male: "Where are you right now?"
Lucy: "At Balsam Town. The hot spring street here is super fun. You should co with next ti!"
Lucy: "There's also a famous restaurant here called 'Super Express.' It's super popular."
Lucy: "[Picture 1, Picture 2, Picture 3]."
Like most girls, Lucy enjoyed sharing her experiences with her boyfriend.
Nate clicked on the pictures and admitted it looked lively. He recalled Balsam Town was just west of Magnolia—not too far away.
Maybe when it snowed, he could bring Ur for a snowy hot spring visit.
Sigma Male: "Is Big Sis Lucy with you too?"
Lucy: "Her na is Ashley! Knock on the head.jpg."
Lucy: "Anyway, wait for . We'll head back right away."
Nate thought about telling her there was no rush—they could take their ti playing. The warning threshold for Celestial energy reserves could sustain them for another two or three days.
...
After waiting for about an hour, Lucy arrived at the apartnt.
"Nate! Let's go!"
She looked thrilled, albeit a bit out of breath, clearly having rushed back.
"Where's Ashley?" Nate noticed she was alone.
"She went to the guild. She's pretty worn out from playing today. Anyway, let's head to the Celestial Spirit World!"
Lucy excitedly grabbed Nate's hand. "But... how are we supposed to get there?"
"Call Virgo. She can take us."
"Oh, right!"
Lucy quickly summoned Virgo.
Virgo: "You called for , Princess?"
Virgo, dressed as a maid, bowed gracefully—but to Nate:
"Nate-sama, it's a pleasure to et you again. The Celestial Spirit King awaits your arrival."
Lucy: "..."
'I'm the summoner here, for crying out loud!'
Suddenly, Lucy rembered sothing.
"But humans can't survive in the Celestial Spirit World, right? What should we do?"
"Don't worry, Princess. You just need to change into Celestial Spirit attire."
Virgo clapped her hands, and two sets of Celestial Spirit World clothing—one male, one female—appeared.
Virgo: "Princess, shall I assist you in changing?"
Lucy: "No, I can do it myself."
Grabbing the won's outfit, Lucy headed for the bathroom. "I'll go first, Nate."
Virgo sighed regretfully and turned to Nate.
Virgo: "Nate-sama, shall I help you change?"
Nate: "Sure."
Nate had barely nodded when—
Lucy: "No way!"
Lucy burst out of the bathroom, grabbed Nate by the arm, and dragged him inside.
"I'll help my boyfriend change!"
Nate chuckled. Lucy was too easy to tease.
Virgo mimicked Happy, covering her mouth with her hand. "Scandalous~~~"
Lucy: "I said he's my boyfriend!"
"Hmph. Once we get to the Celestial Spirit World and et Aquarius, she'll never tease about not having a boyfriend again~!"
After a bit of chaos, they finished changing. With Virgo's assistance, Nate and Lucy finally entered the Celestial Spirit World.
