the gamer that became a pokemon trainer

Chapter 92

Morning arrived by the time we reached the forest and by then the fire was already put out thanks to my Water Pokémon who met us at the edge of the forest, I happily gave everyone a headpat and a Pokepoffin as a treat.

Everyone took a few pictures with them and even gave them headpats, Kurokawa was very taken by Milotic and was giving her a lot of attention, Kuribayashi was petting Vaporeon.

The men were however gushing around Suicune who just stared at them amusingly, Pops was the only one who wasn't overly excited about the Pokémon's but he still gave them a headpat.

I knew they were trying to keep their minds away for what they saw happen last night, I don't blame them for doing so and I was glad my Pokemon were able to help them a bit.

But soon enough everyone got their serious faces on and we began to make our way inside, Serafall quietly spoke to me "what do you think about the Flame Dragon we saw?".

I hummed a bit "it was a young Dragon at best and not very powerful, in fact with the right weapons and gear this unit can kill it".

Serafall nodded and we both continued forward, while everyone walked through the burnt forest, thanks to me and the Pokémon, the forest didn't get to much damage from the fire.

In time, it will recover and go back to its previous glory, but it will take some time, however I wasn't too worried, nature always has a way to survive and thrive after all.

As we got closer to where the Mayor of Coda Village said that we would find the Settlement, we could see how the ground was still steaming from the heat of the Dragon's fire-breath.

I looked around for a bit "be careful everyone, it seems the Dragon heavily attacked the area, the ground might be super heated".

Everyone nodded, Pops frowned "so the Dragon did attack the settlement... I wonder why?".

It was a good question, one they were all wondering, but as we got closer to the settlement we quietly began to search for survivors, though I knew there was none but one.

Tomita looked around along with the rest of the JSDF and couldn't help to comment "Rean is right, the ground is still hot...".

Kurata who was looking around nodded "it'll be a miracle if we find any survivors".

Everyone split off to take a look around, Serafall and I only found burnt corpses, they looked like charcoal from the intensity of the Dragon's fire-breath "at least it was a fast death, they were almost instantly turned into ash".

Serafall nodded and looked around, meanwhile Yōji walked further into the area with Kurata following close behind, he immediately noticed a few corpses "Commander, its...".

But Yōji sighed "don't say it... I know".

Kurata nodded and continued to follow Yōji, meanwhile Pops clapped his hand and sent a little prayer to the dead "rest in peace...".

We spent some time searching the area for survivors and eventually we decided to leave, I noticed Yōji sitting by the well and getting a report from Kuribayashi, about what everyone had found so far.

Plus how difficult it would be to bring the Dragon down with their current weapons, they would need special ammunition, but that means the have to go to base first and get it.

Yōji also wanted to report that Dragons can attack settlements in this side of the GATE, a very important fact that they should all keep in mind.

I walked up to them, it was time to let everyone k ow about the survivor "hey Yōji! I'm sensing a weak energy signature around this area, have you've seen anything?".
