Chapter 22 Dreams
At night, Qi Hao held the iron dumbbell, because the Metagross leader had been busy since morning dealing with clan affairs and resource allocation and hadn't had a free hand.
So Qihao had no choice but to take the iron dumbbell home. But there was no need to worry about any danger. Apart from the fact that it was too dark and the walk was a bit slow, there were no trees or anything between the two houses, just a snowfield.
"Hey Iron Dumbbell, it's not convenient for me to keep calling you that. How about I give you a nickname?" Qi Hao asked Iron Dumbbell. It's not good for friends not to have nicknames.
"Ling? (A nickname? Sure.)" Iron Dumbbell said indifferently, after all, it was just a name, it didn't matter.
"Then I'll call you Xiao Tie! It sounds better." Qi Hao seemed to have planned this for a long time, and blurted it out without any pause.
"Ring! (Okay! Sounds nice)" Iron Dumbbell was unaware that Qi Hao had been planning this for a long time.
"Host, are you bullying an honest person?"
[How could that be? It sounds pretty good, doesn't it?]
"But I think you're terrible at naming things."
[(???) Don't think so, I've always been this way.]
"Um, what did your aunt say to you inside when your dad dragged me out?" Qi Hao asked curiously.
“Ring. (She didn’t say anything, but Mom just confirmed that what you said was true, and told me how Mom got injured before, and how much longer Mom could live.)” Iron Dumbbell replied, her tone still tinged with melancholy.
"I'm sorry to tell you this. Just like your father said, this is indeed not something a child needs to know, but I still think it's necessary for you to know," Qi Hao replied with a guilty tone.
"Ring. (It's okay, I also feel I need to know. After all, since my mother is destined not to live much longer, I will definitely find out what happened when she leaves me. When I find out then, I think I will not forgive myself and will blame my mother's departure on myself.)" Iron Dumbbell responded to Qi Hao. The thoughts of the human and the elf were surprisingly similar.
“(?????) Ring! (So I want to grow up as fast as possible, so that my mother can watch me grow up as much as possible, and then beat all those who bullied my mother back then to the ground!)” Iron Dumbbell said, his eyes filled with a light of longing.
"(\u0027?\u0027) So, your dream is to beat those Bangiras who attacked Auntie back then?" Qi Hao asked uncertainly.
“(????) Bell? (A dream? Of course, that counts. Another dream is to become the strongest Metagross and beat up Dad! He didn't even protect Mom properly! He must have been beaten too little!)” As Iron Dumbbell spoke, he led his father inside.
Metagross Leader: (??-??) This military overcoat is really drafty!
"Ring? (And what about you, brother?)" Iron Dumbbell asked back. That's how curiosity works; once you answer someone's question, you'll want to ask them the same question.
"Me? Let me think." Qi Hao stroked his chin and began to ponder.
In his past life, all he probably wanted was money and sex, and as for the XP of young people... well, he was no longer interested in humans.
He doesn't need money for the time being, but as for Sese... that's very necessary! Then he wants to turn Kyurem back to its original form, after all, it's his father's wish and he promised, a real man keeps his word! He also really wants to see how a spirit with the name of an Eastern dragon, like the Dragon of the Way, is split into three Western dragons.
"There are probably two! One is to find a wife! The other is to help my father, the Kyurem you mentioned, return to his original form." Qi Hao had nothing to hide; after all, dreams aren't just for talking about, they're for accomplishing!
"Ring? (Looking for a wife? A human? Isn't that difficult? Where are there any humans like you in this desolate wilderness?)" Iron Dumbbell asked in confusion. As for Kyurem's question, he said he didn't understand what "original form" meant.
"( ? ? ?) I'm still young, what am I looking for a wife at five years old? I'll go out into the world later. Besides, I think you don't understand at all. From the beginning to the present, humans have always been a kind of elf, so a humanoid egg group of elves is fine, even better for me." Qi Hao looked like a genius.
"Ring! (So that's how it is! But we don't have any humanoid egg groups here.)" Iron Dumbbell asked in confusion, but was greatly shocked and made up his mind to help his older brother find a few. He felt it was his duty to help his older brother's happiness.
"Alright, alright, your brother's happiness is none of your concern. There's plenty of time in the future. Okay, your mother's here. See you tomorrow," Qi Hao explained, then pointed ahead.
The Megalomon Auntie was beckoning as she flew over.
“(?_＞?) Jin. (Thank you for your hard work. My child must be very heavy. Thank you for coming all this way.)” The Megalomon Auntie used her superpowers to pick up the iron dumbbell and thanked Qi Hao.
"How could that be? I'm very strong. It's getting late, I won't bother you. Iron Dumbbell, remember to get some rest and digest your food properly." With that, he waved and turned to leave.
[System, do you think humans and elves can have children?]
『(?′?`?)*?? This Arceus hasn't been changed; humans can indeed be considered a type of elf. Moreover, there's more than one instance of humans and elves having children.』
[(′?w?｀) A great era has arrived!!!]
'Task triggered! Automatically accepted!'
Task: Find a wife
Mission objective: Find and capture the spirit who will become your future wife.

[（┐\u0027_\u0027┌）? I advise you to explain yourself properly.]
"( *ˊ?ˋ)???? I've really gone to great lengths for my host's happiness."
[(o′Д`o)ノ You better be right! So you've already decided my future wife won't be human, right?!]
"You mustn't discriminate against elves."
[(｀へ′) Could you use this ability for something else?]
"It's always in use, everywhere, so don't worry, it's effective in every way."
Meanwhile, in the dean's office at Huaxia North District College.
"Are you kidding me? You need someone else to bring your ID card back just to go out?" Chen Mu mocked Song Chenggong.
"You socially awkward loser, how dare you criticize me?" Song Chenggong retorted.
"ˉ\\_(ツ)_/ˉDo you think I would go? That's hilarious! I wouldn't even dare to communicate with someone!" Chen Mu was not ashamed but proud.
"You're a real piece of trash as vice principal," Song Chenggong said disdainfully, then looked at the admissions form. "Qi Hao doesn't need to go to school. Oh? Ma Sufeng's son is also in this year's class? That's fine, we can let him enroll if his father is lenient and cooperative. Wait a minute? The champion's son is also in this year's class?"
“Yes, this year’s class is truly a diverse and vibrant mix.” Chen Mu said, then proposed a decision: “How about we separate this year’s sixth graders into a separate class? Then we can have the four of us, the top students, teach them separately, using competition to motivate them to learn. We can do the same for the middle and high school classes.”
"Is this something a socially awkward person like you could come up with? Fine, I'll consider it. You come up with the plan first. As for the four key figures teaching their own classes... I'll figure out how to handle the lunatic!" Song Chenggong readily agreed to the plan, after all, this guy is quite reliable when he's being dependable.
