"Apologize? What apology?" Xiao Mao raised his head and pretended not to understand.
"Aiyo, I realized that you're quite good at pretending.”
"Xiao Mao, it's only been two days, and you've already forgotten about pushing me into the river.”Billy came up to the youth who was the same height as him and teased him with a strange expression.
"Didn't Auntie Flower Lady say that this guy wouldn't blame me? " Why…" Seeing Billy staring at him with bright eyes, Xiao Mao muttered guiltily.
"What did you say?" Billy leaned his head closer and asked.
"It's…it's nothing. It was indeed my fault for accidentally pushing you into the river that day, but that was also because you wanted to snatch the sprite ball I caught.”
Xiao Mao, who was forced to reveal an embarrassed expression by Billy, quickly defended himself.
" Huh??"
"When did that sprite ball belong to you? Didn't we fish it together?”Billy, who had fused with the memories of his original body and knew the cause and effect of this matter, looked at the young man in front of him with a strange expression.
"It was indeed my fault for pushing you into the river that day, so in order to make it up to you, this young master split that sprite ball into two halves. This young master has decided to generously give you half of it.”
"Xiao Mao, don't talk to yourself here. That day, we caught that sprite ball together. Why are you saying that it's yours now?”After fusing with the memories and emotions of his original self, Billy's personality had unknowingly become closer to his original self.
The soul of a 22-year-old adult the memory of the original Billy at the age of 6, 22 6=28, 28/2=14
Because his original body had lowered his mental age, the current Billy seemed much more mature and sensible to Flower Lady. However, compared to his previous adult soul and mind, he indeed had a youthful temperament.
"Ah, ah, ah, ah ~"
"Just treat it as if we caught it together. Didn't I bring these two halves of the sprite ball over today?”
Instead of answering Billy's question directly, Mao forcefully changed the topic. He placed the two gift boxes he had been holding on the desk and picked up the box on top to open it.
"I want the top half." Billy picked up the half-red Elven Ball from the box.
The Spritish Ball that the two of them had fished up from the river outside the town was not a rare item. It was the cheapest Red and White Classic Spritish Ball on the market that cost 200 Alliance dollars.
It was probably because a trainer had been fishing for a water-type magical treasure before, but in the end, he had failed to tame it during a battle and had thrown it into the river.
To a trainer, a sprite ball that had lost its effectiveness was a piece of trash. Only six-year-olds like Billy and Mao, who had yet to grow up and yearned to become a trainer in the future, would treat it as a treasure.
"Alright, then the upper half is yours, and the lower half is mine.”Shigeru said as he handed Billy the red half-elf ball in the box.
In his memory, Mao liked to go against Billy no matter what he did. It was rare that he didn't fight with him this time, so Billy felt a little uncomfortable.
Of course, when he reacted, his face couldn't help but turn red and hot.
"F * ck, what am I doing? I'm actually 'snatching' a toy from a six-year-old child. What the f * ck do I need this half-elf ball for?”Holding the half of the Spirit Orb that Mao handed over, Billy's face was filled with confusion and despair.
When he thought of the joy he felt when he got half of the Spirit Orb from Mao, he felt a sense of shame.
Just as Billy was debating whether to return the half of the Spritish Orb, Mao, who had happily put away his half of the Spritish Orb, picked up the other gift box he had just placed on the desk.
However, just as he was about to open it, Mao, who was as tall as Billy and had short brown hair, suddenly stopped.
"Billy, that…"
"I accidentally pushed you into the river that day. I'm really, really sorry. Can you forgive me?”The brown-haired teenager held the gift box in his hand and raised his head to bite his lower lip. His eyes were red as he apologized.
"Uh-"
The adult's sense of shame made him return the half elf ball. He had inherited the fused emotional memories from the six-year-old Billy, but he was also reluctant to return such a treasure to him.
Billy, who was caught in a battle between the heavens and the earth, suddenly heard Xiao Mao apologize to him solemnly. For a moment, he did not react.
"As expected, it won't work?" Seeing Billy looking at him for a long time without saying a word, tears kept rolling in Xiao Mao's eyes.
"No, no ~"
" Actually, I know you didn't do it on purpose that day, Xiao Mao, so I didn't plan to blame you at all. Besides, look at me now, I'm fine-"
Seeing that he had only been silent for a moment and had actually made the arrogant and tsundere Mao cry, Billy immediately waved his hand in a flurry and explained.
"Really?" Hearing Billy say that he didn't blame him, Xiao Mao, who was about to cry, looked up in surprise.
"Uh, really." Even though Billy's biological age was six years old like the other party, there was still an adult soul living in his body.
Being stared at by Mao, Billy couldn't even say a word of rejection. He could only nod his head in affirmation.
"Then Billy, if you don't cut ties with me, will you still treat me as your good friend?”Xiao Mao, who had put down his pride, looked at him expectantly and asked.
"Of course, we are still good friends.”Looking at Mao's current state, Billy also revealed a bright smile.
Recalling the memories of his original self, whenever the children in the town said that he was a wild child without a father, Xiao Mao would stand up for him immediately.
Even though Mao's words like 'Billy isn't a wild child, he's just the bottom dog…Only I can say that he's the bottom dog…' sounded a little arrogant, but Billy did acknowledge Mao as a friend from the bottom of his heart.
However, what made Billy feel a little embarrassed was that as an orphan in his previous life, he actually didn't have any friends he could confide in.
He didn't expect that the first friend he would admit to was a six-year-old child he met after transmigrating to the Pokémon world.
" A six-year-old friend? So he's really a kid?" Billy complained, feeling a little amused.
"By the way, Xiao Mao, what's in this box?”Billy asked curiously as he looked at the gift box that the young man had been holding.
"We fished up that sprite ball together, so we each took half.”
"However, when we were fighting for this sprite ball, I accidentally pushed you into the river. After you were sent to the hospital in Changpan City, I felt very guilty.”
"Today, I heard from Grandpa and Mom that you were discharged from the hospital today, so I specially picked a gift to visit you. I want to apologize to you officially in person.”
"This box is the apology gift I specially chose for you. Billy, open it and take a look.”Xiao Mao handed over the gift box in his hand and said.
