Chapter 334: Teacher and Disciple

Chapter 334: Teacher and Disciple Yuga smiled and said, "What are you thinking? Inviting you to stay isn't about having you help with my business or act as a doorman. Do you think so little of me?"

With that, Yuga briefly explained his desire to train a group of Trainers to Beidou.

Training Trainers was not something that could be accomplished overnight, and it was unclear when they would become useful. That's why Yuga had made this plan so early.

After hearing Yuga's simple explanation, Beidou exclaimed in surprise, "You're starting from scratch? That won't be easy!"

Yuga chuckled and replied, "I'm well aware it won't be easy, but don't forget, my Pokémon Day Care may not be large, but it's quite profitable. Supporting a few Trainers won't be an issue."

Yuga's words were not empty. Apart from the monthly profits from the Pokémon, the Pokéblocks alone, thanks to retail sales and bulk deals with Aromatherapy Day Care, as well as future collaborations with Lilycove Gym, made YoYo Day Care extremely lucrative.

Moreover, YoYo Day Care's Pokéblocks had low production costs, providing a significant competitive advantage.

With the increasing income, Yuga couldn't think of many places to spend it other than building his own faction. After all, he couldn't just hoard it like a miser!

Beidou fell into silence for a long time, and Yuga patiently waited for his response.

After a while, Beidou raised his head and firmly said, "Alright, I'll take a gamble with you. When you succeed, I'll be one of your senior members. You can't treat me poorly then!"

Hearing Beidou's answer, Yuga beamed and said, "Of course not!"

With that, Yuga stood up from his chair and extended his right hand. seaʀᴄh thё nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Pleasure doing business with you!"

"Pleasure doing business with you!"

Beidou also got up and shook Yuga's right hand.

"Come on, I'll take you to meet someone!"

Yuga led Beidou outside.

"Meet who?" Beidou asked curiously.

"Of course, we're going to meet your first disciple!"

Naturally, Yuga intended to introduce Beidou to Sena. Since he was entrusting the task of building his faction to Beidou, Sena would be his responsibility in the future.

After all, a master had to meet his disciple.

"So, I'm not your number one employee?" Beidou exclaimed with surprise.

Yuga smiled and said, "Well, you're just a step late!"

Beidou pretended to be disappointed and said, "That's a shame."

Then he changed the subject and added, "But if I can't be your number one employee, I guess being the master of your number one employee will have to do!"

When Yuga and Beidou arrived at the new store, Sena was busy counting the number of Pokémon eggs. When he saw Yuga enter, he happily greeted, "Boss, you're here!"

Upon noticing Beidou behind Yuga, Sena looked puzzled and asked, "Who is this?"

"Follow us, and we'll talk inside," Yuga said.

Sena gestured to the few remaining customers in the store and said, "But what about the shop?"

Yuga smiled and said, "That's easy. You wait here."

With that, he walked towards the workshop and soon returned with Misaki.

"Misaki, can you watch the shop for a while? I need to talk with Sena and Beidou."

Although Misaki didn't know what was going on, she obediently nodded.

Once they were in the customer waiting area, Beidou asked, "So, is this the disciple you mentioned?"

Seeing someone around the same age as Yuga, Beidou immediately thought of Yuga's formidable strength and felt somewhat uneasy.

Yuga nodded and said, "Indeed."

Beidou rubbed his chin, furrowing his brow, and asked Sena, "Do you have any Pokémon?"

Even though Sena was still a bit confused, he nodded obediently.

"Release them, let me see!"

Sena turned to look at Yuga, seeking his opinion. Seeing Yuga nod, Sena took out his Poké Ball and released his Trapinch.

Beidou squatted down, carefully observing the Trapinch, then stood up and said to Yuga, "This Pokémon is good, but judging by the strength of this Trapinch, isn't the kid a bit too old for his age?"

So not all young people are prodigies, Beidou thought, feeling relieved.

Sena was already sixteen years old, just one year younger than Yuga, but his strength was worlds apart from Yuga's.

Beidou's blunt words made both Yuga and Sena feel a bit awkward.

Indeed, judging from the strength of his Pokémon, Sena was not so young anymore, and Luna and Wattson's strength probably wouldn't be much weaker than his.

Yuga explained, "His situation is a bit special; he only recently became a Trainer."

"Oh, I see!" Beidou suddenly understood.

At this point, Sena, who had been confused on the sidelines, asked softly, "Um, boss, can I ask what you guys are talking about?"

Yuga slapped his forehead and said, "I forgot to explain to you. Let me introduce formally. This is the teacher I found for you, who will be responsible for teaching you how to become a qualified Trainer."

Hearing Yuga's words, Sena asked excitedly, "Really?"

Although Sena had attended Trainer school, he dropped out halfway through, and he still struggled with many aspects of being a Trainer.

While Yuga had hired him as a Trainee Trainer at YoYo Day Care, Sena had a hard time fully capitalizing on the benefits of the high-quality Pokéblocks provided daily. Thus, his progress had been limited.

"Of course. He's Beidou, my friend, and he will be your teacher from now on."

Hearing this, Sena was thrilled and said, "That's great! Hello, I'm Arata Sena. I look forward to learning from you!"

He then bowed to Beidou, showing his respect.

"Hello, nice to meet you."

Sena's unexpected enthusiasm left Beidou somewhat bewildered.

Yuga suddenly asked, "By the way, have you thought about where you'll be staying?"

"No, not yet. I just came here to work. You're not that cruel to leave me homeless, are you?" Beidou said, raising an eyebrow at Yuga.

Yuga chuckled and said, "If you haven't made any plans, I'll arrange something for you. But if you have something in mind, feel free to do as you please."

Beidou replied, "I've just arrived here, so I don't know the place at all. I don't have any plans."

"Alright, come with me then. I'll show you where you'll be staying. Sena, you go back to looking after the shop. Once I've arranged accommodation for your teacher, you can catch up with him later."

After saying that, Yuga led Beidou to the second floor of the new store.

There were several rooms on the second floor, and everyday necessities were readily available. Yuga had purchased them when Misaki moved in, just to be prepared.

"The accommodation conditions are quite good!"

Beidou chose a sunny room, opened the window, and commented on the sunlight streaming in.

Yuga said, "I'm glad you like it. Take your time to settle in, and if you need anything, you can find me at the old store."

"Sure, go about your business. Don't worry about me."
