Chapter 30 Nazja, be my running buddy!
The next morning, Ash arrived at the entrance of the Goldenrod Gym again.
This time, he didn't even bring Pikachu, only Lucario, to challenge Sabrina.
Moreover, with the Aura Force always active, I'm worried about being ambushed by Sabrina again.
Ash quickly arrived in front of Sabrina, surrounded by the familiar red-haired youth, the familiar corridor, and the familiar temple.
Naz remained expressionless atop the platform, holding a doll that spoke on her behalf.
"You actually dared to come back here."
"Of course, after all, I promised to be your friend, how could I leave you all alone here and suffer from loneliness?"
Ash's words seemed to have provoked Sabrina, and she actually started speaking on her own.
"I'm not alone, I still have my mother..."
Sabrina's voice is very pleasant, but Ash has no interest in appreciating it.
"Mom? With Auntie around, it must be a very warm and loving relationship between you and your daughter!"
Nazi's mother had long been turned into a rag doll by her, and was placed next to the chair where Nazi often sat.
Naza was enraged when her wounds were reopened. A red light flashed around her, and the air in the room suddenly became heavy.
[Ding! Sabrina: Affection -5]
This was the first time Ash had encountered a drop in affection level.
But this also shows that his provocation was very effective.
"I'm going to turn you into a rag doll too, and we'll play a knife-throwing game together!"
Ash quickly released Lucario.
They simultaneously enter a state of resonance, mobilizing their entire bodies' waveguide power to resist the onslaught of superpower attacks.
For a moment, the scene resembled a clash between red and blue Conqueror's Haki.
Sabrina's psychic powers were too strong; Ash's aura was reduced by half in no time.
"That's about it!"
Ash seized the opportunity to recall Lucario, then immediately used his powerful physique to turn around, smash the wall connecting to the outside, and escape.
Sabrina hadn't expected that Ash's body could still move and that he was so strong during such an intense battle of abilities.
"Was it done solely through physical strength...?"
She could only watch helplessly as Satoshi escaped through the large hole in the wall.
This was Ash's plan: to first provoke Sabrina and then use her psychic powers to hone his Aura.
He would then leave about half of the waveguide for escaping and dodging Sabrina's superpower search.
Once in a safe place, it quickly replenishes its waveguide power using its own abnormal recovery ability and the system's potion.
Then I went to see Naz again, it was perfect!
Xiao Zhi had excellent control over his physical condition and made no mistakes in several consecutive attempts.
After a whole day of annoyance, Naz was getting tired of it all, and she was starting to lose her composure, her icy beauty expression crumbling.
Even though Sabrina ordered the gym apprentices to surround Ash, he still managed to easily force his way in.
"Sarcasm, I'm coming in." Ash's cheeky voice came from the temple's main entrance.
"Get out!"
A powerful psychic attack was directed at Ash, but it was quickly neutralized by a gentle wave.
Ash's Aura ability has improved dramatically with Sabrina's help.
Previously, I could only resist Sabrina's psychic powers for less than 5 minutes, but now I can withstand them for almost 10 minutes.
Concentrating intently on sensing the aura within his body, Ash counted down the time until it was time for him to escape.
Before Ash could even turn around, Sabrina's helpless voice rang out.
"Go through the front door, and don't damage the wall anymore."
"My dear friend, I'll come play with you again tomorrow."
As evening fell, Xiaozhi waved goodbye, leaving behind Natsume, her face flushed and her teeth clenched.
------------
It has to be said that Sabrina is truly introverted; a normal person would have run away long ago if Ash had bothered them like that.
But Sabrina wouldn't budge, and every time Ash came, she would be seen standing obediently in the same spot waiting for him.
Thanks to Natsumi, his waveguide technology has made rapid progress.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, your ability to upgrade Aura Power from LV4 to LV5!]
As a way of repaying her, Xiao Zhi insisted on bothering Sabrina at least four times a day.
During this time, he spent his days with Nazi and his nights with Xiaoxia, leading a fulfilling and beautiful life.
Starting from the third day, Ash would bring some trendy little gadgets to give to Sabrina every time he visited the Goldenrod Gym.
"This is a hair clip that's been very popular among young girls lately."
"unnecessary."
[Ding! Sabrina: Affection +1]
"This is the latest style of dress..."
"Take it now!"
[Ding! Sabrina: Affection +1]
"I've come to see you again, Nazja. Are you happy?"
"Please leave immediately!"
[Ding! Sabrina: Affection +1]
"Naza, you're still such a tsundere!"
Ash will also tell Sabrina some interesting news about Saffron City when he is training his Aura Power.
Naz always says she doesn't want to hear it, but every time she does, she smiles.
Two weeks passed just like that.

Ash's Aura Power also reached LV6 through diligent training.
It was another ordinary evening, and Sabrina and Ash were having their usual "Conqueror's Haki battle".
"Your talent is truly exceptional. What is that special energy?"
Sabrina reduced her attack slightly.
Xiao Zhi hadn't expected the other person to ask such a question, but he hadn't intended to hide it from anyone.
"It's the power of waveguides."
"A rare and ancient ability; the upper limit of all extraordinary individuals in this world, including those with superpowers, is innate."
Sabrina stared intently at Ash, as if trying to see right through him.
"You come stronger every time you come, Ash. What's your limit?"
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, I don't know where my limits are either."
Ash grinned and increased the output of his Aura, creating a situation where it was evenly matched with Sabrina's psychic power.
[Ding! Sabrina: Affection +2]
"You are the most talented person I have ever met besides myself. Your genes must be excellent."
Sabrina looked at Ash with admiration in her eyes.
"Gene?"
Naz continued calmly.
"Of course, in families of superhumans, genetic pairing marriage is the most common way to obtain more powerful superhumans."

[Reward: Gain the ability 'Ghost Egg': Greatly enhances the ability to love others, allowing you to freely decide whether your child lands without additional equipment!]
"Pfft, what kind of reward is this?" Ash looked at Sabrina's cool and beautiful face.
"Naza..."
"No, I've worked so hard to raise her favorability rating, I feel like I'll get killed if I ask her now."
In the end, Ash didn't dare to invite Sabrina to say "Oh ho ho ho ho".
"What's wrong?" Sabrina heard Ash calling her.
"It's nothing, let's go for a run together tomorrow morning."
"...I'd rather practice my superpowers at home."
This shut-in girl.
"We're friends. How can you call yourself a friend if you refuse an invitation to go out with friends?"
"..."
Nazie pondered for a long time, as if she were going through a fierce internal struggle.
"All right."
Xiao Zhi nodded in satisfaction and checked the time.
"Don't be late tomorrow morning at 8:30. From now on, you'll be my running buddy."
"...What friend?"
"Friends I run with."
Ash has someone he wants to meet with Sabrina.
