Chapter 37: The Days of Learning to Walk
Stood up strong and continued to wrestle.,Oh not walking.,It took a week for Natsume to barely learn to walk.。 Even though I learned to walk, I still forgot to step on my paws when I walked, and my tail was still straight and erect like an antenna. The good food in the past few days has made Natsume fat and turned into a ball, but this is nothing, what annoys Natsume the most is that Inari and Amaterasu have found a tutor for him, and the class will officially start today, which is rushing towards the pavilion on the water.
The breeze undulated and the water rippled in circles, and Natsume walked quickly on the surface of the water with his four little short legs, but the legs were too short to be fast. At this moment, Natsume's heart is broken, and the baby is bitter! But the baby can't say /(ㄒoㄒ)/~~. In the past, although his legs were not particularly long, but this refusal was not too much of a problem for his previous self, but now it has become a huge problem, and the steps are really difficult for him to climb to the sky, since becoming a fox, although he has begun to accept and slowly adapt, and he has barely learned to walk, but going up and down the stairs is still an insurmountable distance. Now Natsume's hands are short, his feet are short, his body is short, and he is round, and he can only hold the edge of the steps after he has exhausted his strength with his two hind paws, and then the force of his two front paws rubs a step little by little, and his little belly is rubbed on the ground in the whole process. It was not easy to climb a step and the strength had been exhausted, and he lay on the surface of the steps with his eyes closed and his feet facing the sky, until he felt a chill in his lower body, and he realized that he was now a beast and was clothed≦≧! I opened my eyes and looked around secretly, only to find that everything was too late, and my image had been completely ruined. The surrounding was full of onlookers, seeing that after opening his eyes, he quickly returned to his original position and pretended to be working seriously, while the mopping oracle was still mopping the floor and whistling in a good mood. Do you want to be so cheerful Your tail is already about to shake into a big windmill Natsume roared in his heart, stretching out his two small short claws with lightning speed to cover his face that he had already lost, but after a slight pause, he turned around and ran towards his lower body, which was more important than maintaining his face or keeping his temperance.
This arduous staircase journey has finally come to an end, and now Natsume is about to enter the world of giants, and the originally short corridor has become dangerous. During the time when he was learning to walk, the monster gods and gods in the entire mansion suddenly became very busy, and Natsume had also asked Inari, who had always asked Natsume in the past, but this time he just told him that it was an adult's business, and children don't need to know. After that, Natsume didn't ask again, but all the divine envoys were too busy Natsume couldn't bear to add trouble to them, so he refused their help and decided to solve it himself. Looking at the low-level divine envoys flying from all over the world or Takamagahara, Natsume was very envious, looking at the vigorous posture, flexible steps, and graceful posture of others, he was really weak, and his round body was round with four small short legs like a ball. I don't have the skills to shuttle through the gaps of the running oracles at will, so I have to carefully try to move myself to the entrance step by step against the foot of the wall, and I have to be careful that my tail is stepped on by the oracles who come and go.
Be careful and carefully dodge a few feet that were about to step on you, and finally reached the entrance safely without danger. Standing in front of the entrance and looking up into the distance, the future was open, there were no steps and no people coming and going, only the endless lake and the pavilion in the lake, Natsume almost cried with joy. Now there is only one last problem left, the entrance where I am located is nearly half a meter from the water, and the distance of one step in the past is now like a moat. Natsume thought about the amount of time wasted on the road, and his heart jumped down with his eyes closed, and there was no imaginary pain only the feeling of falling into the lake and rebounding. It turned out that Inari and Amaterasu, who were worried about Natsume's safety, had already set up a protective barrier on his body to avoid the harm that Natsume would suffer.
After flicking his tail to check that he was unharmed, he hurried towards the gazebo, and when the class time was coming, Natsume, who has always been a good boy, would not be late, and it was about to arrive, and the pink meat pad with four paws did not have a special anti-slip ability, and it slid on the water surface with little friction. The frantically trying to stop the forward trend turned into a forward roll, turning into a ball and rolling towards the gazebo, which was much faster than he could run. "Let's chirp" on the steps of the gazebo, it seems that from now on Natsume's most hated enemy is the steps. After colliding, it bounced back a little before it dispersed, and Natsume was lying on the ground on all fours again, his eyes were dizzy in the shape of mosquito coils!
The people who had been waiting on the pavilion heard the movement and slowly walked down the stairs, and when they saw Natsume lying on the ground, they elegantly reached out and held Natsume's front paws under their armpits, lifted him to eye level with him, and said, "Young master, this posture is not very elegant!" After speaking, he put him in the crook of his arm and hugged him in his arms, and smoothed his hair for him, so that Natsume could ease his senses. After slowly sobering up, Natsume finally saw his governess, a beautiful woman like a flower, wearing a beautiful sky blue kimono embroidered with large cherry blossoms, elegantly standing in the gazebo, holding the little fox that had always been cute, like a Heian period Yamato-e (Yamato-e, a Japanese national painting produced in Japan around the 10th century. It was made with Japanese themes, methods, and techniques, which was different from the Chinese style of Tang painting, which was popular in Japan at the time. With strong colors and "eye-catching" stylized figures, it shows a strong decorative interest and fantasy atmosphere. The noblewoman walked down.
"Are you my teacher?" Natsume asked, but there was a scream, and Natsume was instantly embarrassed. Seeing Natsume's embarrassment, "It's okay, I can understand." "Let me introduce myself, my name is Miko Sakurakami, the prototype is the cherry blossom tree in the middle of the lake, and my duty is to dredge the divine power in the mansion, and it is the hub of the divine power in the operation of the mansion. Young master, you don't need to call me Sensei, just call me Miko" "Okay, then I'll call you Aunt Miko, and you can call me Natsume too." Natsume looked up at the huge cherry blossom trees in the middle of the lake, and looked at Miko Sakurakami with admiration as she turned her head to look at her. He coughed unnaturally, "The class we are going to take today was originally your physical arts class, but in view of your current situation, it has been changed to a course on perceiving and mobilizing divine power. Later, when you can transform into a human form, you will make up for the physical arts class, kendo class, and martial arts class. "Okay, Aunt Miko. ”
