Chapter 586 Nightmare Authority Appears! Darkrai, who doesn't belong to this time and space? Crescent Feather obtained!
The light of dawn continues.
That pure light, a convergence of dreams and hope, was like the sharpest holy sword, mercilessly cutting and purifying the body of the Nightmare God.
"Hiss—!"
Darkrai let out a final roar filled with resentment and fear.
Its massive, shadowy body had become fragmented, as if it might vanish completely into the light at any moment.
It doesn't want to die!
Its strong will to survive caused it to unleash its final potential at the last moment!
The remaining dark energy is frantically gathering!
It wasn't in a counterattack, but in an escape!
The black figure suddenly shrank, transforming into a streak of black light, about to tear through space and disappear into the endless shadow dimension!
"Trying to run away?"
Ye Yinchuan's eyes narrowed.
Releasing a tiger back into the mountains will lead to endless troubles.
This Darkrai has already seen all of his trump cards. If it escapes, no one can predict how much disaster it will cause!
"Little superpower! Stop it!"
"roar!"
Zoroark, who had been maintaining his illusionary abilities, unleashed a burst of brilliance in his eyes!
The invisible illusion energy transformed into a net that instantly blocked all of Darkrai's escape routes!
However, at that very moment!
A sudden change has occurred!
A vibrant green portal, brimming with the essence of life and time, appeared out of nowhere right in front of Darkrai's escape route!
The portal wasn't large, but it seemed to connect to a completely different time and space.
"rice?"
Little Shemi, who was nestled in Ye Yinchuan's arms and trying to release her purifying power, suddenly let out a sweet and joyful cry.
Its little nose sniffed hard at the portal.
That's a very familiar and favorite taste!
The moment Ye Yinchuan saw the teleportation portal, his pupils suddenly contracted!
He recognized him at a glance!
This iconic spacetime fluctuation, this unique green energy!
—Sirab!
It's a time-space teleportation by the Forest God!
[Holy crap! What's going on?! Another one?!]
What's that green door? Another mythical beast?
[Shemi is barking so happily! Does it recognize it?]
[Wait a minute! Why is this portal in front of Darkrai? Is it helping it escape?]
The viewers in the live stream were completely dumbfounded.
This is a battle of gods, how come they even have outside help?
The Darkrai, which was on the verge of collapse, seemed to see its last lifeline the moment it saw the portal.
Without the slightest hesitation, it transformed into a black shadow and plunged headfirst into the emerald green portal!
The figure vanished in an instant!
next second.
The portal's light flickered slightly.
A petite, emerald-green figure peeked out from the doorway.
It has a pair of huge, clear blue eyes, like lake water, and on its onion-shaped head are two peculiar antennae.
It hovered lightly in mid-air, curiously surveying the battlefield.
It is the legendary Mythical Pokémon that can travel through time.
—Shrab!
The portal did not close immediately upon its appearance.
Instead, he protected that portal behind him.
Then, it turned its head, and its clear blue eyes looked meaningfully at Ye Yinchuan.
There was neither hostility nor goodwill.
There is only one kind of profoundness, indescribable, as if it sees through the past and the future.
Finally, it nodded slightly to Ye Yinchuan, as if expressing some kind of gratitude.
Then it turned around and went into the portal.
The emerald green light gate rippled like water before slowly dissipating, as if it had never existed.
The entire Crescent Island fell into a deathly silence.
They just... got away?
[No, can someone explain to me what just happened?]
[Celebi? The streamer seems to have mentioned it before! Is it the forest god?]
Why did it let Darkrai go?! He's a huge villain!
[I feel like my brain isn't working properly. The relationships between these legendary Pokémon are so complicated! Could Celebi and Darkrai be in cahoots?]
The live stream room was filled with huge question marks.
Everyone was completely baffled by this unexpected turn of events.
"jingle--!"
A soft groan filled with anger and resentment broke the silence.
Cresselia's figure rose into the air once more!
The light emanating from it, though still bright, carried a hint of urgency!
It's unacceptable!
That nemesis that almost devoured him, that culprit who turned Crescent Island into a mess, absolutely cannot escape so easily! The light of the crescent moon gathers again, ready to tear through space and time and give chase!
"etc!"
Ye Yinchuan's voice rang out just in time, stopping its impulsive act.
"Creselia, calm down."
Cresselia turned around, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion.
It didn't understand why this human was also trying to stop it.
Ye Yinchuan noticed its confusion and saw the screen full of question marks in the live stream.
He took a deep breath, slowly opened his mouth, and uttered a prediction that shocked everyone and Pokémon alike.
If I'm not mistaken.
"That Darkrai from earlier doesn't even belong to our world."
"Or rather, it doesn't belong to our space-time."
These words shocked everyone present.
【No—not belonging to this time and space? What do you mean, host?】
[From another world? A transmigrator?]
[Holy crap! No wonder he was so powerful! Turns out he's an outsider who knows how to chant sutras!]
Ye Yinchuan nodded and continued to explain, "I found it strange before."
"Why is there such a huge difference in strength between the Darkrai in Karakusa Town and this one here?"
"Now I understand."
"The one in Tangcao Town is the Nightmare God native to our world. Although it is powerful, it is still in a state of balance."
"And that one just now was an 'intruder.'"
"It comes from another time and space, a time and space that is perhaps more chaotic and darker."
"It came here with only one purpose: to seize the power of this world's nightmares, to devour you who holds the power of 'beautiful dreams,' so that it may become whole and stronger."
This explanation gradually calmed Cresselia's anger.
What followed was a deep sense of lingering fear and—a sudden realization.
"As for the rabbi—"
Ye Yinchuan's gaze fell in the direction where Shirabi had disappeared, and a look of admiration appeared on his face.
"It's not helping Darkrai escape."
"It is—correcting the wrongs."
"It was simply fulfilling its duty as the guardian of time, bringing back an error that didn't belong in this spacetime to where it should have been."
That's all.
His words were logically clear and reasonable.
All the mysteries were perfectly connected.
[So that's how it is! I understand now! Celebi is a time policeman!]
[Wow! My worldview seems to have been refreshed! Does this so-called spacetime refer to parallel universes?]
So, that Darkrai from out of town was just an illegal immigrant who came to steal territory, only to be defeated by the streamer and the local gods, and finally deported back to his home country by the Time Police?
[The summary upstairs is perfect!]
The viewers in the live stream suddenly realized what was going on.
"Perhaps it's a parallel universe, perhaps it's the past or the future—in short, it doesn't belong to the present."
And just then...
The moment that foreign Darkrai was brought back to its original timeline by Celebi.
A pure, solid black energy body, exuding an aura of endless ominousness and despair, slowly emerged from the place where it had disappeared.
That energy body was like a black sun.
Just looking at it is like seeing all the nightmares in the world.
What is that?!
[Wow—what a unique feeling! Just looking at it sends chills down my spine!]
"Nightmare Authority. That's how I understand it—similar to the top-level laws in fantasy novels, or the currently popular—sequences? To possess authority is to have power equivalent to that of a divine beast."
Ye Yinchuan's eyes were extremely solemn.
"The power that the alien Darkrai forcibly seized from this world was left behind the moment it was deported."
This is the law.
Things that do not belong to this world will eventually be stripped away.
Cresselia looked at the black energy body, a hint of disgust in her eyes.
But it still flapped its wings of light and flew over.
The gentle light of the new moon transformed into an invisible hand, carefully guiding the "Nightmare Authority" towards itself.
It needs to ensure that this thing doesn't get out of control again.
In the live stream, all the viewers held their breath.
Ye Yinchuan also watched this scene intently.
His heart was in his throat.
Cresselia, the goddess of dreams.
Nightmare Authority.
If—if Cresselia absorbs this power.
Dreams and nightmares, light and shadow, become one.
What kind of unimaginable being would be born then?
Will he become the supreme true god who controls all dreams?
Or will it completely spiral out of control due to the conflict between the two extreme forces, turning into a monster even more terrifying than Darkrai?
Everyone's heart was filled with anticipation and—anxiety.
however.
Cresselia simply stared silently at the nightmare authority.
It seemed to be hesitating.
In the end, it shook its head.
"jingle----"
A clear, soft hum rang out.
It gently pushed that ball of black energy toward Ye Yinchuan.
A pure thought entered Ye Yinchuan's mind.
I don't like it.
—This smell is awful.
Do you know what to do with it?
Cresselia rejected the power that could have propelled it to the top.
It followed its heart.
It is the God of Sweet Dreams.
A pure, dream-bringing goddess of hope and light.
It neither needs nor wants to be tainted by the darkness of nightmares.
[Holy crap! They rejected me?!]
[Is she a Virgo, the goddess of dreams? Does she have obsessive-compulsive disorder about cleanliness?]
[Wow! This is the kind of awe-inspiring demeanor a god should have! Not tempted by power!]
[So what do we do now? This thing was given to the streamer? Is the streamer going to become a nightmare?]
"Even the God of Dreams might not be able to absorb the Nightmare Authority, otherwise there would have been chaos among the divine beasts long ago."
Ye Yinchuan looked at the "Nightmare Authority" floating in front of him, and his breathing became somewhat rapid.
A tempting idea flashed through his mind in an instant.
He thought of the native Darkrai at the Ruins of Dreams, which had been tormented by researchers to the point of having "migraines".
That Darkrai, although it is also a legendary Pokémon, its power has clearly not yet reached its peak.
if----
If only I could capture that Darkrai.
Then, grant it this complete "Nightmare Authority".
Wouldn't that mean that I have personally created a true, complete god who governs a region's laws?
To have a real mythical beast as a partner!
The temptation is just too great!
however.
After a moment of hesitation, Ye Yinchuan's eyes finally regained their clarity.
He slowly shook his head.
"no."
He shared his thoughts with Cresselia and the viewers in the live stream.
"The power of authority is too great, and too mysterious."
"I have neither the ability nor the means to safely transport and store it."
"Furthermore, it's still unknown what Darkrai in Tangcao Town is like, and whether it can control this power."
"To rashly hand over power to it may only create another tyrant who is blinded by power."
These words were calm and rational.
The viewers in the live stream all expressed their agreement.
The anchor is right, this thing is like a nuclear weapon; we can't just give it away carelessly.
Indeed, if that Darkrai turns out to be an ingrate, the streamer will suffer a huge loss.
[Showing great vision! This streamer really showed his strategic thinking!]
Ye Yinchuan looked at the Nightmare Authority in front of him, pondered for a moment, and made a suggestion.
"Creselia, how about we temporarily entrust this authority to you?"
"You are the Goddess of Dreams, and Crescent Island is your domain. It couldn't be safer with you personally overseeing it."
"When we find Darkrai in the future, who is truly qualified and virtuous enough to inherit this power, then it will receive this legacy."
Cresselia understood what Ye Yinchuan meant.
Approval and recognition were evident in its beautiful eyes.
It nodded.
"Ding-a-ling~"
A soft murmur.
It flapped its wings of light once more, and the soft light of the crescent moon enveloped the nightmare authority layer by layer.
Finally, a flash of light.
That dangerous energy mass disappeared.
Cresselia hid it deep within Crescent Island, in a hidden dimensional rift connected to the Dream Realm.
Without its permission, nothing can be found.
The crisis has been completely resolved.
Ye Yinchuan let out a long sigh of relief.
That night was incredibly exciting.
Mythical beasts clash, time and space intertwine, and authority manifests in the world —
Pick any one of them and you could brag about it for a lifetime.
"Alright, everyone, it's about time to wrap up tonight's live stream."
Ye Yinchuan gave a slightly tired smile to the camera.
"The biggest problem has been solved. Next, there's still some finishing work to be done."
He turned around and looked at Cresselia, who had regained most of her strength and whose figure was still holy and beautiful, and a "friendly" smile appeared on his face.
"That one—Creselia."
"Look, we've contributed manpower and effort, and even helped you fight off those bad guys who came out of nowhere."
"These medical expenses, compensation for emotional distress, lost wages—are they—?"
Cresselia: "???"
Its beautiful eyes blinked blankly, as if it didn't understand what the human was saying.
【Wait, what are you doing, streamer?】
[What the hell! You're asking a mythical beast for payment? Are you crazy?!]
[Kirby teacher, I urge you to be kind! They just finished a fight, and you're trying to scam them?]
Ye Yinchuan cleared his throat and put on a compassionate expression.
That's right.
"Over there, there's one of your fellow villagers," because some minor problems with him have caused sleepless nights for the entire town.
"Look, could you... pluck a feather—no, grant me one of your feathers?"
"With your Crescent Wing," I can help it solve its migraine problem, preventing nightmares from further harming innocent people and Pokémon.
Ye Yinchuan appealed to their emotions and reasoned with them.
Cresselia understood this time.
Its beautiful eyes revealed understanding and kindness.
It nodded slowly.
"Ding-a-ling~"
A feather, exquisitely beautiful and seemingly woven from the purest moonlight, surrounded by a seven-colored halo, gently drifted down from its luminous wings.
It slowly landed in Ye Yinchuan's hand.
—Crescent Feather.
Legend has it that this is a treasure that can dispel all nightmares.
