After Yu Feng and Shiny Kirlia finally managed to get Indeedee and the others into a wonderful dream (physically).
Yu Feng and Lao Mei began to discuss the reason for this situation, after all, if they didn't figure out what was going on, the Ralts piled up outside the windows would really eat the two of them.
"Now that I think about it, this situation didn't occur before we went in to worship."
Yu Feng sat cross-legged, pondering their actions today, and what had caused the current situation.
"Kirlia. (It appeared after we came out, but it clearly had no effect on Gardevoir.)"
Shiny Kirlia suddenly remembered that this inexplicable attraction seemed to have no effect on Gardevoir; after all, neither Mother, nor the Aunties, nor even the Gardevoir they encountered on the road, had experienced this situation.
"Wait a minute, could it be Xerneas's blessing?"
"Kirlia! (It must be a blessing!)"
The two looked at each other in shock simultaneously; although it was highly unlikely, it seemed to be the only explanation.
"Didn't Mom even remind us?"
"Kirlia. (Maybe she's like that prankster Aunt, waiting to see us make fools of ourselves.)"
Yu Feng was a bit shocked that Mother didn't give them a hint, just watching this happen.
Shiny Kirlia, however, probably guessed it, as it wasn't that hard to figure out.
Clearly, they had all experienced this; even if they got wet themselves, they'd tear up other people's umbrellas.
"So what do we do now? It's clear that our location is as obvious to them as a light in the dark."
Yu Feng pointed to the window, which was already bulging slightly; it was clear it wouldn't hold much longer.
"Kirlia. (Shall we go back?)"
"Go back? Right, Ralts and the others don't seem to dare go there."
Shiny Kirlia suggested returning to the meeting room, as Ralts and the others wouldn't dare go there.
Yu Feng was about to say something, but then he remembered they had stayed there for a long time without seeing any Ralts go past, so perhaps that place really could temporarily hide them from this danger.
After figuring it out, Yu Feng took Lao Mei's hand, ready to leave, but seeing the Ralts outside with glowing red eyes and drooling mouths, he instinctively chose to teleport away using Psychic powers.
"Mew?" A small pink cat flying in the air appeared in place, glanced in the direction Yu Feng and the others teleported, and then disappeared again.
In the blink of an eye, the scene before them changed from their room to the clan's meeting room.
Of course, they couldn't relax even after arriving. Yu Feng locked the door casually and cautiously observed the situation outside through the window.
After a long time, apart from seeing the Ralts going crazy like obsessive women along the path they had taken, no one dared to come this way.
"It seems this place can indeed block their perception."
Watching the Ralts scurrying around like headless flies, Yu Feng finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Kirlia. (Who knows how long this situation will last? Don't get happy too soon.)"
Shiny Kirlia leaned her chin on her hand, feeling a bit helpless. This was the first time they had encountered such a thing, and they had no idea how long it would last.
If it lasted too long, eating would become another problem.
"I think it should be tomorrow. Didn't Aunt say she would return Shiny Gardevoir to me tomorrow?"
Yu Feng thought about it; he remembered Aunt saying she would return her tomorrow, which probably meant it would be resolved by tomorrow. Even if it wasn't resolved, Aunt and the others likely had a way to block this effect.
"Kirlia. (It can only be this way. I'll Calm Mind first, so I don't get hungry later with nothing to eat.)"
Although Shiny Kirlia didn't agree with this statement, there was no better method at the moment.
With that, her eyes closed tightly, and she sat cross-legged on the sofa, beginning to Calm Mind.
After all, her older brother had already evolved into Gardevoir; if she didn't work hard, she would be left behind by him.
"What can I do if you're Calming Mind? Forget it, I can only do the same."
The mention of Calm Mind gave Yu Feng a headache; he hated sitting still like that the most.
But from the current situation, it seemed that only by Calming Mind could he resist hunger.
He had no choice but to sit cross-legged near Shiny Kirlia and begin to Calm Mind.
Time quickly passed.
Their Aunt also found them early the next morning, just as they had expected.
"Gardevoir. (I thought you two would be foolishly running around outside all night, but I didn't expect you to know that this place can block the outflow of aura.)"
Gardevoir Aunt looked at them, clicking her tongue in wonder; after all, according to her plan, the two of them should have been exhausted outside by now.
She casually tossed a love ball to Yu Feng, looking at them as if appraising some rare creature.
After all, she herself had been chased for a whole night back then; why hadn't she thought that this place could block the outflow of aura?
"No choice, after all, they didn't chase us when we were here. A little deduction tells us they definitely wouldn't dare come here, or there's some way to block our aura."
"Is this supposed to be a necklace for me?"
Yu Feng explained their thoughts to Aunt while catching his love ball. He suddenly noticed that this love ball had been fashioned into a necklace.
Yu Feng couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. Did Mother and the others want him to wear it as a necklace?
"Gardevoir. (It was specially modified. After all, it's for you, so it needs a bit of ceremony.)"
Gardevoir Mother handed two boxes of food to Yu Feng and Shiny Kirlia. They hadn't eaten all night, so now was a good time to eat something to fill their stomachs.
"Gardevoir. (I suggest you release her and resonate again when you get back; there's a surprise.)"
"Gardevoir. (Speaking of which, have you decided which region you're going to travel to? Currently, the Kanto Alliance and the China Alliance seem to be the closest for competitions.)"
Gardevoir Mother gently asked her son which region he planned to travel to. She vaguely remembered that the opening times for the conferences in other regions were still a long way off.
The Kanto and China Alliances were the closest to the opening of their conferences; the conferences in other regions were still more than ten months away, with only these two regions' conferences happening within the next six months.
"I'm afraid it won't be a surprise, but a fright. So, Mother, what are your thoughts?"
Yu Feng was a bit helpless; their 'surprises' always felt like serious 'frights'. However, he did have an idea about the region for his trip, but the most important thing was to see what his Mother had to say.
"Gardevoir. (The Kanto Region's conference is three months earlier than the China Region's. I suggest you can win the Kanto Region's Champion first, and then challenge the China Region.)"
"Gardevoir. (This way you can challenge fewer Gyms, and the traveling companion I prepared for you is also in the Kanto Region.)"
At this moment, Yu Feng felt as if his Mother had grown a devil's tail. Was she that eager to see her son find a partner?
At this moment, Yu Feng felt a deep malice from his Mother. However, his Mother was right about one thing: since the China Region's conference was still three months later, challenging the Kanto Region first became a necessary option.
