[I was born today, so happy! —Snorunt]

Lucas looked at the Snorunt on the table, which was blinking at the group, and greeted it with a smile.

"Hello, Snorunt. My name is Lucas, and they are—"

Lucas introduced everyone one by one, then looked at Snorunt.

"Sno~"

Snorunt let out a happy cry.

Lucas patted its small head.

"Welcome to our big family~"

Snorunt let out another happy cry.

Mime Jr. ran over and took its small hand, "Ni Ni~"

Let's play together.

Mime Jr. took Snorunt and ran to the backyard.

Shauna took chimecho, and Vulpix also followed them out.

Lucas took Gothitelle and went back to the kitchen to keep busy.

When it was time to sleep at night, Snorunt seemed very clingy to Lucas. It slept in Lucas's room on the small bed he had prepared for Mime Jr. Mime Jr. had long since started sleeping on Lucas's bed to accompany him, or would go to Shauna's room to sleep with her.

This caused Lucas to feel the temperature in the room drop significantly at night, making him pull his blanket tighter.

Fortunately, he had Vulpix in his arms.

It was warm and cozy.

And Mime Jr. was there too.

Since Lilligant was also sleeping in Lucas's room tonight, early in the morning while Lucas was still asleep, he was woken up by Lilligant.

Lucas got up gently, but for Mime Jr. and Vulpix, as soon as he rose, they would wake up too.

Snorunt got up from its small bed and watched everyone get up to wash.

"Sno~"

"Snorunt is awake too? Good morning."

"gengar sound—"

"Laji~"

"Whish~"

"Mime Jr.~"

Lucas went to the small bed, picked up Snorunt, and took it to the bathroom to wash its face.

Coming downstairs, Gothitelle was already preparing breakfast. After eating, Lucas took Vulpix, Dash, and the others, preparing to head to the shop.

The supplies from yesterday afternoon had already been delivered to the shop; today they just needed to go there and prepare.

"Uncle."

Shauna came downstairs from the upper floor, eyes bleary with sleep, and greeted Lucas as he was getting ready.

She dove into Lucas's arms for a hug, then sat at the counter to eat breakfast.

Snorunt looked at Lucas and the others who were preparing to leave and asked curiously.

"Sno~"

What are you going to do?

"We're going to work to earn money. Does Snorunt want to come along?"

Snorunt nodded happily, and Lucas held it while sitting on Gogoat.

A world of ice and fire—

Lucas felt an incredibly intense sensation.

Arriving at the shop, all the Pokémon took their respective positions and began to get busy.

Soon, an enticing aroma wafted throughout the entire shop.

"Uncle."

Shauna's voice rang out from outside. Lucas walked out and took the fresh milk and goat milk from the two Gogoats behind her. Since school hadn't started yet, Shauna also came in to help.

When it was time for school, Shauna put on her backpack, said goodbye to everyone, and opened the door to leave for school.

As soon as she opened the door, Shauna's mouth formed a round 'O'.

"Uncle."

She called out.

Lucas walked out, and seeing the scene outside the door, his brow twitched.

A long queue had already formed outside.

"Good morning, Lucas." "Lucas, when are you opening?" "Lucas, did you prepare a lot of things today?"—

After Shauna left, Lucas checked the time. It was originally supposed to open at 9:30, but it wasn't even 7:30 yet.

He looked inside the shop; many things were already prepared. Lucas decided to open early.

Otherwise, the people waiting in line outside would get very tired.

Lucas clapped his hands, drawing the attention of all the Pokémon.

"Everyone, we're preparing to open early. Get ready. Drink water if you need to, eat if you need to."

Once Gengar and the others were all ready, Lucas opened the main door.

"Good morning, everyone."

"And, welcome~"

There seemed to be even more people today.

The line wound around and had slowly begun to affect traffic.

So when Officer Jenny walked in, the first thing she saw was Lucas in the kitchen, working until his eyes were lifeless.

She had originally come in to see if there was any way to make the line move faster, but the moment she stepped in, she couldn't leave.

Officer Jenny and Arcanine were dragged into working overtime by Lucas.

However, with Officer Jenny's help, the checkout speed increased significantly.

The line showed a faint tendency to shorten.

"Hurry up! A lot of people are waiting!"

Officer Jenny tapped on the glass window, and Lucas rolled his eyes.

He definitely had to buy a few more machines today!

Right now, Lucas desperately wished he could use Double Team so he wouldn't be so tired.

After noon, after seeing off the last customer, Lucas collapsed onto the floor again.

"I can't do it anymore, I can't. Do it yourself, I'm leaving."

Officer Jenny stood up, dragging Arcanine, who was lying on the floor as limp as a rug, and prepared to walk out.

Then she found her leg being grabbed. Looking back, Lucas was looking at her pitifully.

"No—don't go—"

Officer Jenny was forced to stay again. While eating, she suddenly remembered there was someone else at home.

Her eyes narrowed, and the corners of her mouth curled up.

"I'll call someone over for you."

Seeing the devious expression on Officer Jenny's face, Lucas's heart skipped a beat.

No way?

Soon, Nina walked in with Empoleon.

Seeing Lucas, she turned to leave, but Arcanine blocked the doorway.

Unable to leave, her face wore a mask of pain.

She began help Lucas with the work.

She had clearly been deliberately avoiding Lucas, so why was she still dragged here to work!

She fiercely grabbed a piece of bread that Gothitelle had just brought out and took a vicious Bite.

She finished it in two or three Bites and took another one.

Considering how good this tastes, I'll forgive you.

Lucas noticed that Snorunt's mood wasn't very good, so he went over and patted its small head.

"What's wrong?"

Hearing Lucas's gentle voice, Snorunt couldn't help but let its tears flow.

"Sno~"

Am I useless? Can't I help?

Lucas quickly picked up Snorunt and comforted it.

Then he looked at the area where the cakes and tiramisu were kept. "Snorunt, I need your help with something now. It might be very tiring. Can you help me?"

Snorunt stopped crying, looked up at Lucas, and nodded heavily.

"Sno!"

Lucas found a place for Snorunt in the dessert section and sat it down.

"This area needs cold air to maintain its flavor, so can you help by using your cold air to preserve them? If there are customers, help me attend to them too, okay?"

Snorunt nodded.

The cold air emanating from its body slowly filled the entire dessert section.

A Pokémon refrigerator!

Seeing that Snorunt's mood had stabilized, Lucas nodded and shared a look with Gengar.

Snorunt is really sensible.

Snorunt stood there, its body swaying gently.

A little girl walked over, and it let out a happy cry.

"Sno~"

Welcome~

After selling a portion of tiramisu, Lucas praised it.

It narrowed its eyes happily.

It loves working the most!

"Sno~"
