Chapter 932 The Story of Meltan's Growth – [i.e., "His Story 8"]
(A long-awaited return to the elf tale series; the last chapter was about 300 chapters ago, featuring the little airplane!)
three months ago.
By a twist of fate, Little Nut followed Jirachi and Rotom into this peaceful and serene forest bathed in moonlight.
Rotom, who was already able to control a remote-controlled airplane, led Rotom to meet the mistress of this dreamlike place—a bright and charming older sister who always had a smile on her face and spoke in a gentle voice.
I also saw a little fox next to her trying to learn to speak, patiently correcting her pronunciation over and over again.
Although Meltan had experienced almost nothing since birth, as a phantom beast, it instantly accepted this place.
This place, just like the one next to the creature known as Shen Yu, is a warm and pleasant little paradise.
The older sister sitting on the big rock, looking at Shen Yu's little fox with gentle and kind eyes, is the owner of the garden.
Meltan was so young that everyone who spoke to Him understood Him in His own way—
For example, when Shen Yu says "Time to eat~" to Him, Shen Yu will give Him lots and lots of delicious and nutritious food. So later when Shen Yu makes that sound, He will be very enthusiastic and happy.
For example, when he saw that the part of Shen Yu's face that he spoke and the part that he closed his eyes when he slept were both turned upwards, Meilutan understood that this might mean that Shen Yu was very happy, and since Shen Yu was happy, he didn't know why he was happy too.
Another example……
Lots and lots of them.
In any case, most things related to Shen Yu make Him feel that He is also changing his mood along with Shen Yu's.
Meltan was just born and didn't know why, but He was willing to slowly search and learn.
"Oh, there's a new little one!"
"Beep beep—Your Majesty! Little Meltan is still a newborn child, Loto!"
"Okay, okay! I can see you're working hard taking care of the kids~"
Rotom is now talking to the Queen via her tablet. Upon hearing the Queen's command, the tiny capacitor hand that appears in the air suddenly salutes, its expression solemn!
"As ordered!"
At that moment, Meltan also moved closer to Sylveon, who was babbling in front of a video on a phone.
"Spanish Second Division...wash...and good afternoon...no, please..."
The fox's mouth structure is animal-shaped, with natural horizontal bones, so it's already quite remarkable that it can produce such sounds.
But she was still practicing.
She doesn't have the ability to communicate telepathically, so she can't express herself directly to someone in that way... Whenever she wants his affection, she can only awkwardly tie his arm with a ribbon and make him hug her.
No way! I'm going to tell him myself! Even the Queen can learn it! Why can't I?!
That stubborn girl's been showing again, the kind that even a nine-headed Tauros couldn't pull back.
Meltan's liquid body lay slumped to one side, looking at the frowning fox sister, several question marks popping up above her head.
What's going on? Why does my sister seem unhappy?
Hmm... I need to cheer my sister up!
So, Little Melotan used his special trick—spinning his head like a top.
I heard you say that~
cough cough.
The rotation generated static electricity, which attracted the fine hairs on Sylveon's face, causing them to stand up. Sylveon was no longer the wild girl she used to be; after spending so much time with Shen Yu, she even developed the feelings of a virtuous wife and loving mother when looking at children.
"Bu-i~ Bu-i... (Okay, okay~ I'm fine~ You'll understand how I feel now when you have someone you like in the future...)"
She doesn't know if the little thing is male or female, but does it really matter?
Those who live with Shen Yu are all family.
Such words are still too profound for a newborn child. Especially those two words.
Like? What does it mean to like?
Who does my sister like?
He didn't understand, but that didn't stop him from seeking the answer.
The way to get the answer—hehe, naturally, is to spend every day with Him and even get permission to possess the tablet, Rotom!
Rotom was completely unaware of the impending danger. When Meltan asked the taboo question, he even went online to explain it to Him!
"Beep beep! 'Like' is a word in the Dongyao language, pronounced xi huan. It has a dual meaning: first, it refers to a pleasant or happy emotional state; second, it refers to a psychological tendency to have a liking or interest in a person or thing, Loto!"
Rotom's search was fraught with uncertainty, but it did give Merutan some opportunity to understand.
However, even with such a definition, the current intelligence of Meltan, which is like that of a machine, still cannot understand it.
So He had Rotom search every single word in that short sentence above, and then had AI translate it.
It took Meltan and Rotom at least an hour and a half of painstaking effort to understand this one sentence.
Meilu realized it!
I like it! It makes me happy! It also makes me unhappy!
Liking something means being happy when that thing is happy, and unhappy when that thing is unhappy!
At this moment, Meltan remembered Sylveon's words again—
The person I like?
Hmm... I'm happy when someone is happy? I'm unhappy when someone is unhappy?
This is a difficult question to answer.
It took Meltan a full 0.01 seconds to come up with a result.
So that's how it is... Is it because Sister Fox likes someone that she looks sad? But isn't it Shen Yu that Sister Fox likes?
Does that mean Shen Yu is also very sad right now?
No, we can't do that! We need to cheer Shen Yu up!
But how can we make Shen Yu happy?
Meltan's clever little brain came up with another idea—to make Shen Yu fall in love with Meltan! Then Meltan would always be happy, and Shen Yu would always be happy too, right?
Meltan is a genius!
It really is a beetroot; Shen Yu never imagined that any elf would have such an idea.
How can we make Shen Yu fall in love with Meilutan?
There's absolutely no need to worry about that; Meltan has already obtained the standard answer based on the memories within its genes.
In the memory of the genes... it will become super, super big! Extremely strong!
Meilutan watched as Shen Yu stared wide-eyed at that huge, powerful iron behemoth on TV!

Shen Yu! Meltan will definitely make you happy! Meltan now needs to work hard to become bigger and stronger in the future!
…………
By the way, Meltan is still a child, so he definitely wouldn't understand the definition of "like" as a machine.
When Meltan went to Sylveon again, the amazing things it said left Sylveon in a daze.
Is this...is this right?
What exactly is the thought process of children? Did I go through a similar phase when I was a child?
Sylveon wouldn't dare to think about it, but Meltan had such thoughts... She had to correct her.
We can't start with Meltan; He seems to have already made up his mind and is determined to stick to his principles.
Who told Him that?
Who is it...
(So, do you understand now? That's why we haven't seen Rotom for so long...)
