Chapter 280 Assisting the Trainees
Compared to using Etemon to train the Chosen Children, having Gluttonymon, a Digimon that is considered a friend, help train them seems like a much better idea, as the risks can be completely controlled.
"Gluttonous Beast, could I ask you for a favor?"
The fairy beast asked the question.
"Sure, but how exactly do you want me to help?" Broly agreed to help, but then asked, "When those chosen children come here, should I go directly to them and tell them that I'm here to help them train?"
"No, you can't reveal the identity of the person helping you with the training."
The fairy beast quickly shook its head.
"Is there a problem with that?"
Broly was puzzled.
"The chosen children are, in the end, just a group of human children. Once they know they are not in danger, they will inevitably become complacent. At that time, the effectiveness of the training will be greatly reduced, or even not effective at all."
Since the Divine Project began, the number of children chosen to come to the Digital World has been far more than just a handful.
Some of the chosen children and their partner Digimon also overcame the challenges posed by the Champion-level Dark Force Digimon on the mini-server.
But those who choose to continue and save the digital world are one in ten.
Human children rarely possess resilience; when faced with setbacks, they generally tend to escape, and very few choose to confront difficulties head-on. Even among the carefully selected chosen children, Taichi Yagami and his companions are among the few who choose to continue moving forward.
Fairy Beast was truly afraid that, through training, the chosen children who were about to arrive on the Sand Continent would develop a lazy attitude.
"Gluttonous Beast, you must play the role of a villainous Digimon, not a trainer who assists the Chosen Children in their training."
"All right."
Broly nodded.
"But how exactly do I do it? After the chosen children arrive on the Shabak continent, should I just go and beat them up?"
Broly asked.
"As for training, it's definitely necessary to put pressure on the chosen children, but when putting pressure on them, remember to be moderate. Don't scare the chosen children into not daring to move forward."
At the same time, we must be careful not to let the chosen children realize that we are going easy on them...
The fairy beast muttered to itself, revealing that it had quite a few requirements for playing the role of a trainee.
"Alright, after the Chosen Children arrive on the Suna Continent, I'll go find them and their Digimon and give them a good beating, to show them what's what."
Broly nodded.
"Wait a minute, if you do this and are this strong, how are those Chosen Children who can only evolve to the Champion stage and their partner Digimon supposed to escape?"
The fairy beast asked the question.
"It's simple. When the time comes, you come out to save the day, the two of us fight a few times, making it look like we're evenly matched. Then you smoke some cigarettes, I'll pretend I can't see you, and you can take the opportunity to escape with the chosen children."
Broly said that this was not a problem at all; when it was time to cooperate with others' performance, he could completely ignore it to the extent that he was blind.
"Huh, Gluttony, how come you're so skilled?"
The fairy beast was somewhat surprised.
"Ha, I used to be an ape actor."
Although it happened a long time ago, Broly still remembers clearly the time he fell to the ground in the ring and handed the championship to someone else. He wonders how that Samba-san uncle is doing in Akame's world now. He guesses that winning the championship is still his pride.
"And what about me, Abu? What should I do?"
"Hey, Gatomon, are you going to be in the show too?"
"Can't I participate?"
The white cat blinked its big, bright eyes and looked over inquiringly.
"Not really. On the other hand, Gatomon, your LadyDevimon form is actually more suited to playing the role of a Digimon that puts pressure on the Chosen Children."
Fairymon suddenly said that compared to Gluttonymon, which resembles a human, it truly felt that Gatomon's LadyDevimon form was actually more suitable as a stress monster.
Coincidentally, Taichi Yagami and his group of chosen children were also facing Devil-type Digimon on Falui Island.
It makes perfect sense to face LadyDevimon now, and LadyDevimon's power is just right—weaker than himself, but stronger than the Digimon partner of the Chosen Children.
Broly and the two Digimon discussed the specific process of becoming trainers (pressure monsters) for other Chosen Children.
But as the discussion went on, he lost sight of the villainous role he was supposed to play.
"Glutton, you're too strong. Let Gatomon evolve into LadyDevimon instead. That would create a more realistic performance."
This is what the fairy beast says.
"I'm going to evolve into Angewomon. I'll collect the necessary evolution data myself this time."
Tailmon is also full of energy.
What else can Broly say about this?
Turning to the mechanical capsule beside him, he asked, "Molecular Beast, when will your data absorption device be ready?"
"Two to three days."
Molecular Beast replied, adding that this efficiency was only possible because it had additional Digimon machines available for modification.
"When will the chosen children arrive?"
Broly then asked the fairy beast.
"It could take two or three days at the fastest, or as long as a week."
Fairymon couldn't give a definite answer, because it depended on the chosen children of Faluí Island and the mode of transportation they selected to cross the Data Sea.
If we can find a modern motorboat, we can definitely get here in two or three days, but if we have to cross the sea on a bamboo raft, it will take at least a week.
Of course, one of the children's Digimon partners was Gomamon, who had the ability to manipulate schools of fish, and the raft was actually quite fast.
"Alright, before the main actors arrive, let's find some more Digimon to accompany them."
"what?"
"You can't just let LadyDevimon keep chasing you and letting you get away, can you?"
"Yes, that's true."
The fairy beast nodded.
"Then who are you looking for?"
"Those are naturally the Digimon in the dense forest who chose to follow me."
Broly answered without hesitation.
"However, if they help with the work, they should also get a share of the data intercepted from the Digimon companions of the Chosen Children."
"Wait, are you trying to get more Digimon to come and exploit the Chosen Children for data?"
"I do have that idea, is that not allowed?"
Gokumon dared to lead an army to attack the dense forest because the Digimon in the forest were too weak, and there was an opportunity to help improve their strength. Broly naturally wanted to lend a hand.
"It's not impossible."
According to the overview of the molecular beast interception data, the evolutionary data generated by the emotions of the chosen children can be exploited like韭菜 (leeks).
As long as the Chosen Children and their Digimon are not killed, there will be no problem throughout the entire process.
They can use this method to repeatedly obtain some high-quality evolutionary data.
"I just think we can hire more Digimon and have them cause trouble for the Chosen Children, thus giving them the necessary combat experience."
They simply use the renewable evolutionary data from the Chosen Children to hire a group of Digimon to act as actors and put pressure on the Chosen Children.
Yes, it feels like taking a child's allowance to buy textbooks for them to work on, which is extremely ruthless.
But Fairymon thought about it carefully and thought the idea was brilliant. In fact, because it was a renewable data source, some dark Digimon might not be able to kill the Chosen Children if they knew about it.
Of course, this is on the premise that those Digimon can also obtain the tools to intercept and convert emotional energy into evolutionary data.
. . . .
"Then, Fairymon, you should notify us whenever the Chosen Children arrive."
"it is good."
Broly took Gatomon and left.
"Molecular beast".
After they left, Fairymon looked at Molemon, hoping it could help.
"I need to focus on building the data absorber."
The molecular beast wasn't going to help, and made an excuse to leave the room.
Fairy Beast: "..."
The chosen child must find its own way.
. . . .
"We're back!"
More than a month later, Broly and Gatomon returned to the eastern forest.
At the edge of the dense forest, the yellow sand of the desert buried everything.
Today, no trace of the battle can be seen.
"The Gluttonous Beast King has returned!"
However, the Digimon in the dense forest remembered this incident.
They warmly welcomed Broly back with Gatomon.
"A banquet! We must hold a banquet to welcome the return of King Gluttony."
Broly didn't refuse; he also needed to gather the Digimon in the dense forest to discuss some matters.
However, after the attack led by Etemon, the relationships between the different races of Digimon in the forest became much closer.
Even the snotmon, which were originally at the bottom of the hierarchy of contempt, can now chat normally with other Digimon because they played a role in the great war, instead of being ostracized.
"Cheers to the return of the Gluttonous Beast King!"
Floramon's evolved form, Cactusmon, lifted a large wooden cup and poured the water mixed with nutrient soil inside onto its legs, which is a fairly normal way for plant-type Digimon to drink water.
"A toast to Gatomon's evolution!"
Flymon also picked up the cup, but it couldn't drink it in big gulps. It could only bring its mouthparts close and plunge them into the honey water. While the other Digimon had already finished drinking, it was still sucking on the honey water. Its drinking speed was obviously much slower than other normal Digimon with mouths.
"All of you who are in your prime, come here. I have something to tell you."
Broly spoke to some of the Champion-level Digimon when the welcome banquet was almost over.
"King of Gluttony, please speak."
The liquid mixed with the nutrient-rich soil made the cactus beast, which was absorbing it, look drunk.
However, the two cacti listened attentively to what Broly had to say.
The other Champion-level Digimon also pricked up their ears or other sound receivers, waiting for Broly, the King of the Forest, to speak.
"I took on a job with the Fairy Beasts to help train some of the Chosen Children who are about to arrive on the Sand Continent."
But ostensibly, it's not about training the chosen children; it's about causing them trouble. I wonder who among you is willing to do this job?
Upon hearing this, the group of adult-level Digimon looked at each other in bewilderment. Most of the Digimon in the dense forest these days were of a relatively peaceful nature and did not like to fight.
As for those who were fierce and aggressive, they either escaped from the dense forest or ended up in the belly of the Gluttonous Beast King.
"King of Gluttony, if you need us to do this, we are willing to go through fire and water for you."
Flymon stated, and the other Champion-level Digimon nodded in agreement. They would do such things simply by giving their King's word.
"Go through fire and water? No, this is just a job, an employment job at that, and since it's an employment job, there are benefits..."
Broly immediately brought up the matter raised by Molemon, which involved intercepting the evolution data of the Digimon partner of the Chosen Children.
"Oh, so we can get a share of evolutionary data too?"
"Of course, but only if you actually do the work. So, are you in or not?"
"Damn, we'd follow you even without data, let alone now that you're willing to share some evolution data with us."
"I'll take a cut, the percentage is 5%, no, it's 10%."
In the world of Konosuba, the commission rate for adventurer guilds that provide high-quality quests is roughly this amount.
"That's how it should be."
The Digimon had no objections.
"For the Gluttonous Beast King, for the evolution data!"
They were itching to cause trouble for the chosen children.
"Hey, you guys shouldn't think this is an easy job. If you're not strong enough, you might get killed by the Digimon partner of the Chosen Children when you go to train them."
Gatomon, seeing the expectant looks on the faces of the group of Champion-level Digimon in front of it, couldn't help but offer a reminder.
"Understood, Gatomon-sama."
"Don't call me Gatomon-sama. I'll be leading you to do this work later. So, for the next few days, you'll be calling me LadyDevimon-sama."
As Gatomon spoke, it activated its Dark Evolution Armor and evolved into LadyDevimon in front of a group of Jungle faction Champion-level Digimon.
Seeing this, the group of Champion-level Digimon exchanged bewildered glances, some even looking towards Broly beside them. Finally, it was Cactusmon, evolved from Flamemon, who spoke first, shouting, "Yes, LadyDevimon!"
. . . .
Time flew by, and three days later, with the help of Whalemon, Taichi Yagami and the others had already arrived at the Suna Continent yesterday. However, because the landing location was relatively remote, no local Digimon discovered them.
However, when Taichi Yagami and the others entered the desert area and passed through the region where Dark Cables were buried, Molecularmon, which had control of the Dark Cable Network of Gokumon, immediately discovered the whereabouts of the Chosen Children.
Of course, to be precise, it only detected the signals from the Digimon Machine on the chosen children.
"Why are there eight signals?"
