Chapter 96: Chapter 96: The Concept of a Special Battle Zone

”If I run into trouble, I won’t be polite about asking for help.”

”That’s good.”

Kimia let out a sigh of relief.

What she feared most was Sora becoming distant with her.

”The place I’m heading to is called the Crown Tundra.”

”It’s an ancient village at the foot of a snowy mountain.”

Sora was genuinely happy someone cared about him this much, so he shared part of his plans with Kimia.

”Once I arrive there, I’ll contact you and let you know I’m safe.”

”Report your safety...”

Those words made Kimia feel a little embarrassed.

”It’s just...”

She couldn’t help marveling at Sora’s information network.

”A place like that really has Legendary Pokémon?”

How exactly was Sora finding rumors from these remote mountain villages?

”Oh, that.”

Sora didn’t explain too much, because even he himself wasn’t entirely certain.

Before seeing the results, it was better not to raise expectations too high.

”I happened to see records of a Pokémon in some ancient documents.”

Sora explained:

”I think it’s probably a real story rather than merely local folklore.”

”That alone?”

Kimia understood the concept of myths and legends very well.

Truthfully, before actually discovering Magearna, even she had believed the Automaton Princess was probably nothing more than a legend.

Maybe such a Pokémon had never existed at all.

Or perhaps Magearna had already perished in the rebellion five hundred years ago.

”Isn’t this a bit too reckless?”

”Think of it as trying my luck.”

Sora smiled.

”I was already planning to travel to the Galar region anyway, so I’ll just stop by and investigate.”

”Don’t worry.”

”I’ll go and come back quickly.”

Sora reassured Kimia that he wasn’t about to abandon this place and disappear forever.

”Half a month.”

”I plan to stay in that village for about half a month.”

”If I still can’t find any trace of it after that, I’ll temporarily give up on the target.”

As for who the legendary Pokémon of the Crown Tundra was—there was no need to say it aloud.

The large-headed rabbit-like king.

Galar’s King of Bountiful Harvests—

Calyrex.

And of course, its two beloved steeds.

Among all Legendary Pokémon in the Pokémon world, who was the easiest to approach?

In Sora’s opinion—

Ogerpon and Calyrex tied for first place.

No explanation was needed for Ogerpon.

The lonely little one only wanted companionship.

As long as you sincerely befriended her, taking her along was ridiculously easy.

As for Calyrex—

time had long since buried its existence.

Forgotten by humanity, it had lost both faith and much of its former power.

If Sora suddenly appeared—

someone who knew its true name and was willing to provide it with faith once more—

there was no way Calyrex wouldn’t be overjoyed.

Then, after helping it recover its steeds—once Calyrex regained its power, Sora was highly confident he could bring it home with him.

Galar didn’t need Calyrex.

But the Nebel Plateau certainly did.

And with a true god like Calyrex supporting him, Sora would finally be able to officially step onto the path of challenging divine Pokémon.

At that point, his strength would undergo earth-shaking changes.

”Though not yet.”

”At the very least, I need to settle the protection sanctuary first.”

Sora hadn’t forgotten the responsibility he’d taken upon himself.

He planned to gather and care for the abandoned Pokémon scattered across the Nebel Plateau.

The sanctuary itself existed for their sake.

”And there’s also the special battle zone...”

”Since I’ve decided to develop the Nebel Plateau, I’ll definitely spend long periods here every year.”

He would still continue traveling.

But unlike now, he wouldn’t blindly rush around relying purely on luck and scraps of information.

”Do you have any ideas?”

Since the Nebel Plateau and the Azoth Kingdom were closely tied together, Sora naturally intended to cooperate with Kimia in promoting and developing it.

”Well...”

Kimia shook her head.

”I’ve been thinking for several days, but I still haven’t come up with any particularly good ideas.”

”Though I have already invited Mr. Scott.”

Kimia added:

”It’s just that he seems extremely busy, so I don’t know when he’ll actually come visit.”

”Scott?”

Sora thought for a moment before finally reacting once Kimia mentioned the Battle Frontier.

”Ohhh, that fat guy!”

”We really should hear the opinion of a senior like him.”

Sora told Kimia not to rush and to think things through slowly.

”For now, one thing’s certain.”

”Building a new Gym won’t work.”

”Mhm.”

”There’s already a Gym in Shalour City right outside the Nebel Plateau.”

Kimia had long understood this point, which was why she’d directly abandoned the idea of applying for a Gym.

Besides—

with Sora’s strength, having him supervise beginner trainers would honestly be a waste of talent.

She doubted he’d enjoy babysitting newcomers either.

”I remember Kalos has a castle specifically for battles, right?”

Sora recalled the title challenge system from the games.

That seemed like a viable development direction.

”You mean the Battle Chateau?”

The Battle Chateau was a massive castle where participants began with the rank of Baron.

By continuously defeating challengers and earning points, they could gradually rise in nobility rank until eventually attaining the titles of Duke or Duchess.

In the games, after players defeated the Elite Four and Champion, those same Elite Four members and Champions would also appear in the Battle Chateau.

According to Kimia, Kalos’s Elite Four and Champion had once participated there as well and achieved Duke-rank status.

Without question, they stood at the pinnacle of the entire Kalos region.

”This challenge format has existed in Kalos for a very long time already.”

Kimia sighed regretfully.

”When people think of battle challenges, the first thing they think of is the Battle Chateau.”

”If we make another similar facility, I doubt many trainers would be interested.”

”I see.”

Sora pondered for a long time but couldn’t think of any ideas beyond Gyms or tower-style challenge facilities.

”Maybe...”

”We could take inspiration from Scott’s Battle Frontier.”

The Battle Frontier possessed seven Frontier Brains.

Among them, Brandon—the strongest—was basically comparable to a legendary Pokémon specialist.

”Though if we go that route...”

”Azoth alone probably won’t be enough.”

Sora had an idea.

That was to visit more organizations and regions.

Everyone could unite together and create a large-scale challenge system comparable to the eight official Gyms.

Kimia had invested money, effort, and support into him nonstop.

Sora had constantly been on the receiving end of her kindness and honestly felt a bit embarrassed.

So he didn’t mind helping her in return—

developing Azoth and raising the Nebel Plateau’s fame.

Besides, this was fundamentally a win-win situation.

The better Azoth developed, the more funds would flow into the Plateau’s expansion and infrastructure.

Sora’s journey would eventually come to an end someday.

If he intended to establish himself in Kalos long-term, then the Nebel Plateau—his future foundation—absolutely had to be properly developed.
