Paradise Pokeball System

Vol.2 Chapter 3: Anywhere, Anytime

Before going out, Cryo appeared as I opened my system menu.

"Things are changing fast, but I agree with the strange singing woman. Getting you to a closed facility is what is best for you right now, and especially one that you can train in. Even though you can gain a lot from Prisma, you should understand the point of your system. The greater Prisma is, the greater your and others' powers are," Cryo explained, and I frowned.

"What do you mean? I don't really feel like I am getting any stronger without training, and we have had a few people join. I feel like I should notice something if that is the case," I replied, and Cryo nodded.

"Prisma is a barren landscape currently. Without you going around and getting everyone moving, there can be nothing done. You are the de facto ruler of Prisma, and nothing can be done without your consent. Once things are moving, you will notice a difference, but you have received two rewards from all of Nemona's hard work. You could stand to learn a thing or two from her," Cryo
explained, and I sighed.

I flipped to my quests and noticed two rewards.

Nemona has leveled up her Habitat!

Nemona gains the following new skills:
1. (Active) It's Always Go Time: Summons Nemona's Stadium to any location outside of Prisma. This battlefield lasts until a winner is declared, and prevents any damage from leaving the battlefield.
2. (Passive) Nova Core: Nemona now has a core that gives Nemona the ability to generate and regenerate Fire and Lightning Energy. Nemona's body no longer produces waste products. This energy is used for her attacks and abilities.

No wonder she was so pumped up. The ability to summon her stadium anywhere in the real world was totally an ability made for her. On top of that, Nemona had officially become a Poke-Girl with her Nova Core ability. All and all, it was pretty cool that she had been able to level up the place on her own.

The next message was a reward from me for Nemona being the first to level up.

[Your first Partner has leveled up her Habitat! Receive rewards based on your relationship score:]

[Your score is... 83! Nemona is in love with you, but she wishes that you would train together more!]

1. Extremely Rare Core Candy: any Prisma Bound Human that Eats this candy will grow a random core and gain corresponding skills.
2. Epic Hydro Flash Skin
3. Lugia Light Wings: A pair of majestic, translucent wings that can be summoned at will. Grants the ability to fly short distances.
4. Romantic Date Voucher: A special voucher that can be redeemed for a romantic date with Nemona. When activated, both will travel to random locations and you will be given a special quest.
5. Affectionate Battle Aura: A passive aura that strengthens the bond between you and your Partners, providing a boost to both of your abilities when you fight together. The higher your relationship score, the stronger the boost.

I stared at the rewards, feeling a mix of surprise and gratitude. It seemed like my relationship with Nemona had reached a level where it was providing tangible benefits. The Romantic Date Voucher caught my attention, and I couldn't help but smile at the thought of planning a special date with Nemona.

The candy looked pretty cool as well. I would have to save this for someone that might be helpful on my team later on that I didn't want to have a relationship with. The wings looked amazing, and I almost wished that I could try them out right now, but I would save them for the battle. Affectionate Battle Aura was going to be great moving forward, but out of all of them, the second reward made me almost twitch with excitement.

"So, I can just slap this one over my old skin?" I asked, and Cryo nodded, so I selected, and equipped it.

The moment I did, I felt something inside of me change. Where there had been a feeling of earth and almost like a foundation had been split into two new feelings. I had never really noticed this until now, but I felt more fluid, and my reaction time was sharper. It was really hard to describe the feeling, but I felt like an electrified river was flowing through my body now.

"I think that you have made them all wait long enough. Why don't you go test out your new powers, and make sure you beat Tulip. I don't like anyone who is going to try and hinder your progress, and I was scanning her vital and mental signs during your exchange. I think that there is a little more than just friendship in her mind. I think she has feelings for Jolene and plans to try to get her back from you. Not that it is possible, but I think the other two are a better match for you," Cryo explained, and I blinked at him.

"I am glad you feel that way, and I will do my best to make sure we don't end up under her thumb. I don't really like Tulip any more than you do," I said and walked out of the tent.

As soon as I did, everyone turned to me.

"Look who decided to finally come out! Let's go, Lazy Bones!" Nemona called from her place beside Iono and Grusha.

"Come on! We have to beat the snooty look off Tulip's face!" Iono cheered, and Grusha nodded without adding anything.

I walked over, and Tulip was waiting with her arms crossed, glaring at me. Yup, I wanted to win this almost as much as the fight against Garon. Still, I couldn't use my Penultimate Primordial System for this.

"I am ready when you are," I said, but then paused, and put up my hand. "Actually, there is something that I have to do first.

I turned, and then walked over to Nemona, taking her in my arms, and leaned down and gave her a passionate kiss in front of everyone. I didn't care, this girl was awesome, and she deserved my praise.

There were a lot of different sounds coming from everyone around us, but when I finally let her pull back from a breath, everyone was quiet. I leaned in and tipped my forehead to press against hers.

"You have been doing amazing things while I have been slacking off. You really are amazing. You only just joined me, and yet, you are the first person to accomplish so much! I really do think that you are amazing," I said, and Nemona blushed.

"Do we really have to do this in front of everyone right now?" She asked, and I smiled, nodding.

"I don't care if the whole world is watching," I said, but then Iono piped up.

"They are, but keep going!" She cheered, and I saw her holding her phone up.

"Still don't care?" Nemona asked, turning us so my back was to Iono.

"Nope, you're awesome, and I love you. I will say it anywhere and anytime," I smiled and then gave her another kiss before letting her go.

Nemona blushed even more, but there was a sparkle in her eyes. "Well, now that we've got that out of the way, let's kick some butt in this battle!"

I chuckled and walked back towards Tulip, who was still giving me a stern look. The atmosphere around us was charged with excitement and anticipation.

"Alright, let's get this battle started," I declared.

Tulip smirked. "Prepare to be schooled, Landon."
