Chapter 140: Soon to Become the Master
"Lin Ye~, you really don't consider me one of your own. I only heard about such a big thing from someone else."
Lin Ye's mind went blank for a moment: "Important thing? What is it?!"
"Master level, huh? Your promotion to Master level? Isn't that a big deal?"
Even in our Officer Jenny clan, when one of our sisters is promoted to "Master Level", the whole clan will announce and celebrate.
"Oh, you mean this? Actually, for me, advancing to the 'Master' level wasn't that difficult."
Besides, I just had a battle last night and then unexpectedly got caught up in a mess. I was just about to tell you and Jingjing about it!
"Oh, so you're already going to Versailles just after becoming a 'Gym Leader,' huh?
Wait a minute! What did you say? Qiao Yijing didn't know you'd advanced to "Master Level"?! So you mean I knew before her?
"Um... I guess so!"
"Well, never mind then. You do have some conscience after all."
"Huh? I didn't tell her what kind of conscience that is."
"Alright, don't say anything yet, listen to me. I'm already at the Water Jing City Hall. I pinned that old mayor down here as soon as he arrived at work this morning."
Also, I will notify Qiao Yijing and ask her to come over immediately. Then, the three of us, representing the police department, the municipal department, and the Pokémon Center, will jointly propose to establish an official gym in Lilycove City, and you, Lin Ye, will be the nominee for gym leader.
I have prepared all your documents. Come to the city hall right now to complete the final procedures.
"So hasty! Well, anyway, I haven't worried about my husband's affairs at all, I'm already happy enough."
"Hmph, you're smart enough to know the benefits of having a virtuous wife now."
"What did you say?!"
"Alright, come on over."
During his conversation with Officer Jenny, Xiao Guang gradually awoke from his drowsy state and asked sleepily, "What's wrong? I heard you calling me Officer Jenny and Joey. Has something serious happened?"
Lin Ye briefly explained the situation, and Xiao Guang's eyes immediately lit up: "Lilycove City Gym Leader, does that mean Lin Ye, you're about to become an incredible big shot!"
"It's just a nomination for the position of headmaster. It's not that easy to actually become the headmaster!"
Besides, with my current strength as a mere "Gym Leader" Pokémon, even if I were to become one, I could never dominate a region like those established families and have absolute authority.
"Hey~, take it one step at a time. Your strength is improving like a rocket, you'll surpass them sooner or later."
"You really have a lot of faith in me. By the way, I need to go to the city hall right now. You can stay here..."
"It's okay, your business is more important. You can go back to the company yourself after returning the boat."
"So sensible~"
Lin Ye lowered his head, gave Xiao Guang's fragrant lips a long kiss, and then got up, dressed, and left.
The Water Jetty City Hall is a three-story classical-style old building that stands out in this modern metropolis.
Lin Ye was led upstairs without any effort, clearly having been given prior notice.
When he pushed open the door to the conference room, he found that a lot of people had already gathered there. The three people in the lead were the former mayor whom he had met the night before, as well as Qiao Yijing and Jun Sharan.
Although the former mayor was sitting in the middle, it was clear from the atmosphere and his demeanor that he respected, and even deliberately flattered, the two girls next to him who had the most iconic appearances in the Pokémon world.
After all, mayors come and go, but powerful and wealthy families remain. As a mayor from a fairly decent small family, he dared not neglect the direct descendants of two top-tier wealthy families.
In fact, the status of Miss Officer Jenny and Miss Joey, who are stationed locally, is already on par with it!
When the old mayor saw Lin Ye, this "master-level" big shot, enter, he naturally stood up respectfully to greet him, while Officer Jenny looked on with amusement.
Qiao Yijing glared at Lin Ye, her face showing a mixture of anger and grievance.
"Are you planning to let the whole city know before I even get notified at the Pokémon Center?"
Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.
"To be honest, I had a fierce battle with a formidable opponent last night."
"I've heard about it. It's truly amazing. He just advanced to the 'Gym Master' level and defeated the prodigy of the Liuli family. But what happened after that...?"
"Sigh, last night was a bit of a commotion, but we managed to get through it and even gained something."
Once everything was settled, I planned to come find you immediately and tell you in person, but I suddenly received a call from Officer Jenny, so I had to come over first.
Lin Ye pulled Qiao Yijing into his arms, speaking without changing his expression, but his mind couldn't help but recall the beautiful scene of Xiao Guang struggling and begging for mercy under him last night, along with a series of beautiful and intoxicating cries.
Officer Jenny cast a meaningful glance at her, coughed, stood up, picked up a document from the table, and said in a formulaic tone, "Alright, let's get down to business. Take a look at this document. It's a joint proposal from the three of us, representing the Lilycove City Police Department, the Pokémon Center, and the City Hall, submitted to the League Headquarters as a 'Proposal for the Establishment of a Gym in Lilycove City.' Your name is the candidate listed."
It's universally applicable, so there's no need to go through the assessment process anymore.
Lin Ye picked it up and took a look, only to find that he had inexplicably accumulated many achievements he had never made before, including defeating the Ocean Team in the protected area, though these were exaggerated too much.
"Hiss~, the contents of this document~~"
"If you want to be the head of the club, you can't do it without some merit. Here, I've borrowed some of the merits of my subordinates from the police department recently."
"That works too~"
"I've also included some credit from our Pokémon Center staff for their contributions."
"So this is what it means to have connections? That's great~~, wasn't that incident at the nature reserve thanks to Naki?"
"I've already spoken to her, and she doesn't care about any of that. Besides, she doesn't want her family to know what she's up to, and she completely agrees to have all the credit attributed to you."
"Anyway, with your current 'Gym Leader level' strength, it's only natural that you could defeat A-Chao, a high-ranking executive of Team Aqua." Officer Jenny said crisply.
After hearing this, Lin Ye felt a little strange. Applying to become the head of the academy was such a big deal, and all he had to do was sign his name. He didn't have to do any trouble. Is this what it feels like to be favored?
"Lin Ye, I know that you can improve so quickly because you must have experienced a lot."
But tonight I'm absolutely going to throw you a celebration party, and you absolutely can't stand me up this time!
