NOVEMBER 27, 2022 - TASK 01: CLEANING/GROOMING

It had been an infuriating battle with Tuesday, the stupid cat-eared sadist with her sleek serpent who was as putrid and deadly as she was shimmery. Vincent found himself huffing and puffing from her stupid, humiliating battle that left him and Serena absolutely wrecked and stuck in a position where Serena would tucker herself out in battle before she could even do a significant amount of damage on the Dragonair. It seemed like Tuesday truly knew how to play this game and wouldn't stop humiliating Vincent every change she got. Perhaps, Vincent was a bit too brazen with his new team and their success in the raid to notice the large gap between him and her. He'd start closing it right here, right now.

The first thing he did was log off of UNOVR, the shoddy VR had been acting up with his screen recording so it often took him double the time to upload his content that was still barely passing 5,000 views. It wasn't even close enough to start making a good profit. He thought defeating someone like Tuesday might be some good click bait but that went to absolute shit.

So instead, Silas watched a few other YouTubers explaining how they finagled the system to get their machines to work as best as they could and a few tips for beginners.

" Pokemon Refresh? What the hell is this? " He clicked and Vincent learned a whole new world of what he could immediately do to shorten the distance between the rising stars of UNOVR and himself.

Logging in, Vincent immediately let out Serena who still smelled a little like rancid poison. " Come on, let's get you cleaned up. " Serena was more docile than usual, her own embarrassment shook her to the core being defeated in such a humiliating way.

" Hey, Serena? I promise you that will never happen again. " Vincent looked down at his Fennekin as he washed her, taking out the towel and brush to dry her off and to brush out her coat.

< You better be sure. > She said with a snort of flames, her own vindictive and prude nature flared in the moment as she would deliver a killing blow to Orn, even if it was the last thing she ever did.

SERENA (FENNEKIN)'S RARITY INCREASED BY 5 (VERY RARE).
