Chapter 322: Chapter 322: My Beloved Lost, My Kingdom In Ruins

A/N:5/5 Bonus Chapters

-----------------------

Since they had already been exposed, the rival Kingdom’s army no longer concealed its presence.

With a single order, they surged towards the castle walls like a tide.

An Aggron charged at the very front, thick Rock-type energy gathering around its two horns.

Head Smash!

The strongest Rock-type move.

Julian used Flamethrower. The flames scorched Aggron’s body, but they still could not stop its charge.

With brute force, Aggron became the strongest battering ram, smashing the gate of Shalour Castle into pieces.

As for the soldiers responsible for guarding Shalour Castle’s walls...

Quite a few had secretly run off to join the banquet, and some had even drunk themselves senseless.

The remaining soldiers were also eating and drinking. At this moment, they had no way to stop the army, which numbered at least two thousand humans and Pokémon.

A human in golden armour stood with a strong Chesnaught beside him.

"Chesnaught, crush Shalour Kingdom’s army for me."

Chesnaught let out a shout.

"Ches!"

He directly curled into a ball covered in green spikes and charged forward.

The dozens of Shalour soldiers who had barely managed to organise themselves were instantly scattered.

Flames burned around Julian’s fists as he knocked away two Roselia.

Then fire erupted across his body, and he charged fiercely towards Chesnaught.

Flare Blitz!

Out of the corner of his eye, Chesnaught saw the Combusken charging at him and smiled disdainfully.

Purple and golden energy formed a vortex around him as he charged towards Julian as well.

Giga Impact!

Julian felt as if he were a small car crashing head-on into a fully insured articulated lorry.

The fact that he had not been smashed apart and had merely been sent flying was already thanks to him training his body until it was sturdy enough.

The second prince looked towards the firelight at the front gate.

"Leave the main gate to my brute of an elder brother. We’ll launch a surprise attack from the weak point in the wall."

"By avoiding the army’s pursuit and interception, we’ll definitely achieve more obvious results."

The deputy hurriedly nodded.

"Your Highness is wise!"

Julian had only just climbed back up when Chesnaught rushed at him, swinging his claws.

The claws carried green light as they smashed down heavily.

Wood Hammer!

Blaze, activate!

Combusken’s body instantly erupted with intense flames.

Scorching fire burned across his entire body.

Both fists swung out fiercely, colliding with Chesnaught.

Combusken was sent flying, while Chesnaught shook his burned arm.

First came surprise.

Then fury.

A tiny Combusken had actually managed to hurt him.

Even wilder power burst out as Chesnaught charged at Combusken with overwhelming force.

Would Julian avoid his edge?

Of course not.

He directly used Flare Blitz and clashed with Chesnaught again.

The eldest prince waved his hand impatiently.

"Chesnaught, don’t waste time entangling yourself with a small fry like that. Our target is King AZ!"

Chesnaught released a string of Seed Bombs.

The smoke from the explosions covered Combusken. Chesnaught thought he had already finished him off, so he charged towards the centre of the castle with the eldest prince.

But inside the smoke, Combusken’s flames were as faint as a candle in the wind.

Then his eyes suddenly opened.

Brilliant light bloomed from Combusken’s body.

His body stretched upward, his claws becoming large and powerful. His legs grew long and strong, turning him into a towering Blaziken with almost all his height below his head.

Powerful Fire-type energy surged through his body.

Julian did not rush back up to continue fighting Chesnaught just because he had evolved.

Instead, after knocking down several enemy soldiers who had surrounded him and tried to finish him off, he returned to the kitchen as fast as possible and seized the chance to eat and recover his stamina.

Seeing Blaziken walk in, Croconaw’s eyes widened in shock.

"You only went out to get some air. How did you evolve?"

Julian said calmly, "The rival Kingdom’s army has already broken into the castle. I fought the enemy at the gate."

Croconaw shouted excitedly, "Then why aren’t you hurrying to protect the king?"

Julian shook his head.

Me protect the king?

It would be the king protecting him.

Besides, Weavile had already gone to notify AZ. Julian had held off the enemy for a while, which was already more than enough.

The main reason was that, in this simulation, he belonged to AZ’s camp. The condition of Shalour Kingdom would inevitably affect his simulation evaluation.

Mr. Mime took command.

"Everyone, hurry with me to the hall and protect the king! Blaziken, recover your stamina first. There’s no need to rush."

The rival Kingdom’s tactic of pretending weakness had indeed made AZ lower his guard.

By the time Julian finished eating and headed towards the hall, he could hear AZ’s furious roars from far away.

Even after drinking quite a bit, the strength AZ displayed was still unstoppable.

This was the confidence behind AZ holding a banquet.

He truly had not expected that they would not fear the power he possessed.

Julian saw Chesnaught again.

Facing AZ’s strength, Chesnaught was as fragile as a toy.

Now AZ was the fully insured articulated lorry, while Chesnaught had become the small car.

As for the second prince, who had planned to sneak attack the rear, he had indeed captured quite a few ministers.

But when he used them to threaten AZ, AZ was completely unmoved.

Because the only thing AZ truly cared about was the Floette on his shoulder.

The eldest prince shouted angrily, "Chesnaught, I fed you so many treasures, and this is all the strength you have?"

Chesnaught immediately released Pin Missile in fury.

AZ instantly swung his sword, protecting Floette properly.

As a result, AZ himself was struck by many of the needles.

Floette immediately turned her flower and released Aromatherapy to heal AZ.

The second prince’s eyes lit up.

He seemed to have discovered AZ’s weakness.

Throwing aside the minister in his hand, he ordered, "Zoroark, go capture Floette!"

Zoroark was the substitute the second prince had taken after failing to obtain Blaziken.

Zoroark nodded, then transformed into a human soldier from Shalour Kingdom.

He rushed into the battlefield and slowly approached AZ.

After helping AZ block an attack from Chesnaught, he suddenly launched a sneak attack and snatched Floette from AZ’s shoulder.

AZ roared furiously, "Damn you! Let Floette go!"

Just as the second prince was about to persuade AZ, the eldest prince gave an order with a vicious grin.

"Chesnaught, blow Floette to pieces!"

If he could not have her, he would not let the second prince have her either.

Julian had only just scattered the enemy soldiers and rushed into the hall when he saw Chesnaught wildly release Seed Bomb.

Zoroark instinctively held Floette in front of himself.

AZ’s eyes nearly split apart.

"No!"

He also rushed into the explosion and suffered serious injuries.

Zoroark still had a breath left.

But Floette, who had taken the brunt of the blast, died on the spot.

AZ trembled as he stepped forward and held Floette’s broken body in his hands.

"No... Floette, no!"

He had lost his beloved.

Everywhere he looked was ruin.

The second prince picked up Zoroark and retreated with his soldiers.

The eldest prince, however, was ecstatic.

"Chesnaught, kill AZ for me!"

AZ’s eyes turned blood-red as he gripped his sword and looked at Chesnaught.

"You deserve death."

The frenzied AZ directly cut down Chesnaught and the eldest prince on the spot.

Before a soldier could execute the minister, Julian kicked that soldier away.

This war ended in Shalour Kingdom’s bitter victory.

AZ had no heart for governance, so the minister took charge of post-war reconstruction and the distribution of rewards.

Blaziken had saved the minister’s life and possessed extraordinary strength, so the minister naturally took out the best items as a reward.

"These two stones contain power that can make Blaziken even stronger. With your talent, perhaps you can awaken their power."

Julian had only just caught the two stones.

Before he could even look at them, his vision went dark, and he returned to reality.
