Pokemon: A New Path

Chapter 287: Miracles Bloom as Life Returns



Naoki sighed and looked at Geeta, saying, "Honestly, our plan was to restore this area to its former state today. Since the League also chose today, we might as well work together!"

Together.

No further explanation was needed; Geeta understood instantly. She glanced at the young man before her, his confidence evident, and after a moment's thought, responded, "That's something to look forward to!"

To restore the Pokémon ecology of the mountain quickly, the Paldea League had deployed numerous staff members to plant trees. Most of them were forest rangers, highly skilled in reforesting lands, and with the assistance of various Pokémon, the restoration project was completed ahead of schedule, just before dusk.

The ranger captain, along with his Pokémon, approached Geeta to report the completion.

After listening, Geeta nodded, then turned her gaze to Naoki and the mysterious Pokémon known as the King of Bountiful Harvests.

"From here on, I'll leave the rest to you," she said, entrusting the task as the League's Champion.

Naoki looked towards Calyrex. "It's in your hands now, Calyrex."

The majestic Pokémon gave a slight nod, replying, "Leave it to me."

With those words, Calyrex floated forward, its gentle aura illuminating the surroundings.

Just then, the rangers who had worked tirelessly throughout the day returned to the clearing. They were discussing their plans for dinner when they noticed the glowing Pokémon rising above the forest.

"What kind of Pokémon is that?"

"Look, it's floating!"

"What's it going to do?"

On the other side, Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny also looked up, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Nurse Joy whispered, "Can the King of Bountiful Harvests really do it?"

Officer Jenny didn't answer but watched with a hopeful gaze.

As dusk settled, Calyrex rose gracefully above the newly planted forest. The soft light of the setting sun painted the sky in warm hues, and the King's gentle gaze swept over the land and the people and Pokémon below, radiating a serene and powerful presence.

Calyrex could feel his presence spreading across this strange land. Wisps of warm energy drifted toward him from afar, filling his being.

This energy came from the humans who knew his name.

Alongside this, he sensed a strong emotion-anticipation.

The Pokémon rescued by Naoki were eagerly awaiting the restoration of their home.

And so...

"As you wish," Calyrex whispered softly.

With a graceful wave of his hand, a rich, vibrant energy surged from his body and sank deep into the ground.

In an instant, a blue light glowed beneath the earth, spreading outward until it encompassed the entire barren back mountain.

At this moment, the King's energy reached its peak, and the entire back mountain erupted in a dazzling brilliance.

The people and Pokémon within this radiant light looked around in awe, scarcely believing their eyes.

Suddenly, a cry of astonishment broke the silence.

"The flowers... the flowers are blooming!"

That exclamation seemed to trigger something, and in the next moment, a lush green glow blanketed the ground.

Grass sprouted up at an incredible speed, transforming the once desolate landscape into a vast green sea that spread across the mountain and fields in mere moments.

The saplings they had planted began to change, too-growing from tender shoots into tall, sturdy trees with thick trunks and branches that stretched high. The newly formed forest thrived with life, some trees even bearing large, ripe fruit.

Everyone who witnessed this miraculous transformation was left speechless.

Someone murmured, "Oh my... what kind of power is this?"

"The trees grew in an instant... Was that Pokémon responsible?"

"What kind of Pokémon is that? He's incredibly powerful!"

Then, someone's voice broke through with pure exhilaration, "It's a miracle! This is truly a miracle!"

Hearing this, Geeta seemed to awaken from a trance. Even as the Champion of Paldea, she couldn't hide the awe etched on her face.

"There's really a Pokémon like this in the world... He truly lives up to the title of the King of Bountiful Harvests."

Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny were equally moved.

Joy whispered, "Such amazing power. The King of Bountiful Harvests is truly extraordinary!"

Officer Jenny remained silent, though a feeling stirred within her-a premonition that one day, the name of the King of Bountiful Harvests would echo across all of Paldea, with his statue cherished in every home.

Not only the humans but also the Pokémon witnessing the event were overcome with awe. They stared, wide-eyed, at the incredible transformation before them.

Their home was restored...

Seeing the once-familiar place, now full of life, some Pokémon couldn't hold back their tears.

Their homeland had finally returned!

After a time beyond measure, the glowing light that enveloped the mountain slowly faded into tiny stars, scattering softly into the air.

Beneath the dissipating light, the mountain and forest stood fully renewed.

Tall trees with thick trunks and dark green canopies created a lush canopy, while the setting sun filtered through the leaves, casting playful patterns on the grass below.

Tiny white flowers bloomed amidst the fresh green grass, painting the scene with life and

beauty.

Looking around, the entire forest was verdant and vibrant, showing no trace of the devastation it had once endured.

Calyrex floated back to Naoki's side, nodding at him gently.

"Thank you for all your hard work!" Naoki said warmly. Then, turning to the Minccino, who

were wiping away tears of joy, he continued, "Well, I've finally kept my promise to you. Now,

go on and enjoy your new life!"

"Squeak!"

Minccino quickly wiped its tears with its tiny paws, then, overcome with emotion, leaped into Naoki's arms for a heartfelt hug.

The other Pokémon Naoki had rescued gathered around him, each finding their own way to express their gratitude.

Naoki smiled, patting their heads one by one. "I feel your gratitude, but there's someone else who deserves it even more."

Hearing this, the Pokémon turned to Calyrex, quickly rushing over to express their thanks.

The King looked at them with a warm, gentle gaze.

Naoki took a deep breath, feeling a sense of accomplishment wash over him. This task was

finally complete.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Just then, Geeta stepped forward, her gaze resting on the King of Bountiful Harvests and the grateful Pokémon. "I never imagined there could be such a Pokémon in this world..."

Naoki nodded, "Yes."

Geeta was still reeling from the awe-inspiring display she had just witnessed.

She recalled what Nurse Joy had told her earlier that the King of Bountiful Harvests was known as the god of agriculture, able to bless those who believed in him with abundant

harvests.

The thought stirred something within her.

If... just maybe, if everyone in the Paldea region truly believed in this Pokémon, could the land

they called home become even more fertile, even more prosperous?
