Chapter Seventy-Six: Grandmother's Friend
"Don't confuse me with you low-level goods, you bastard" After saying that, he grinned and showed his teeth, and the purple-clothed monster here also glared at Madara and pounced, and the two began to fight without saying a word.
Natsume here is running in the woods, thinking about what the cat teacher said to him before while running, first imagining the appearance of the other party in his mind, turning it over, chanting a spell, and after clarifying the process, Natsume stopped running, and stopped in place with a sudden brake and waited for the monster not far behind him to chase him.
The chasing youkai didn't think much about it, but wondered why the person in front of him didn't run, but he was greeted by a long black shadow with the sound of the wind and slashed at the youkai with lightning speed, and the youkai in white clothes only felt a sharp pain coming towards him, and then fell into the darkness and fell asleep.
Natsume sighed as he looked at the youkai who fell at his feet and had a big bag on his head, thinking that it was still too troublesome to chase and run while being dizzy, and how good it was to be as quiet as now, after expressing all the complaints in his heart, Natsume finally started to get down to business. Open the 'friend's account' in your hand and recite the mantra taught to you by the cat teacher, "Guardian of me, show your name." ”
When Natsume carried out the key activities, the war between the cat teacher and another youkai also entered the white-hot stage, the two youkai were constantly fighting in the narrow woods, and after a few rounds of fighting, the cat teacher grabbed a flaw in the other party and bit the monster in one bite.
The monster struggled in the cat teacher's big mouth, and the cat teacher opened his mouth and threatened, "Get out, don't appear in front of me again." (〈( ̄) ̄)〈I don't know how the cat teacher speaks while biting the monster.,Well!! It's a novel, and anything happens in a novel anyway. After saying that, he let go of the youkai who was struggling desperately in his mouth.
The battle on the cat-sensei's side is over.,Let's take a look at Natsume's side.,After the spell is practiced, the 'Friend's Ledger' begins to turn the page automatically without wind.,When you turn to the middle of the 'Friend's Tent' about the middle.,A piece of paper stands up straight.。
There is no need to remind Natsume to know that the name of this youkai is written on this piece of paper, and the next thing you need to find the name of this youkai is Reiko's saliva and breath.
Although it's not Reiko herself, but when the cat teacher said, "You who are related to Reiko by blood will definitely be able to do it", Natsume's heart was still a little uneasy, after all, what flows in his body is not the blood of human beings, but the blood of Inari and Amaterasu, and some of the blood of Sky Fox, and I don't know if it can be done.
Tear off this contract and bite it in his mouth, put his hands together to concentrate his mental power, and then exhale, and the demon text flew out of the paper in Natsume's mouth with Natsume's breath, and then flew into the eyebrows of the youkai.
Then Natsume saw some scenes, and a voice shouted lonely in a white light: "So lonely, so lonely!" I'm so hungry," and then the white light began to fade, and the picture began to become clear.
In the picture, an old man places a plate of dim sum as a tribute in front of the Buddhist shrine, then kneels down and walks away after paying homage with his hands folded. A thin paw stretched out to the tribute placed on the plate, and when it was about to get closer, a white hand snatched the snack from the plate several times faster.
The monster stared at the uninvited guest who picked up the snack and stuffed it into his mouth to eat, and the tears of grievance fell, pointing to the snack in the man's hand and crying: "Woo, my steamed bun." ”
The girl with beautiful apricot hair and wearing a junior high school uniform finished eating the steamed bun and wiped the corners of her mouth with her hands and said, "This is not very delicious." ”
The monster that looked very large pointed at her and complained, "It's despicable to do this kind of thing even though she's just a human being." ”
The girl stood on tiptoe with her schoolbag behind her back in both hands and said, "If you want to eat delicious steamed buns, I recommend Nanatsujiya"
"Nanatsuji?"
"If you win me, I'll treat you to it!" As he spoke, he approached the monster's side.
"Can you see that I am?" That's when the monster, which looked a little stupid, reacted.
"I can see it!"
"Aren't you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid at all, because I'm very good." The girl smiled brightly and was a little flamboyant.
The youkai was a little confused, "I'm going to start!" After hearing the girl's words, the youkai was even more puzzled, but it didn't take long for the youkai to hold the big bag of the newborn on his head and shout "It hurts", which was hit by the baseball bat that the girl carried on her shoulder. (Although I still don't know where this baseball bat came from.)
"Okay, I won."
The monster could only obediently hand over the paper with his name written on it, "Aren't you unprepared?" ”
"If you win, you win!" The girl took the paper from the monster's hand, "Okay, now you're my subordinate." ”
"Subordinates?"
The girl smiled happily and showed her delicate face, and the youkai saw the scars on it. "What?" The girl asked the youkai staring at her.
"How did you get the wound on your face?"
The girl then reacted to the scar on her left cheek, closed her eyes and said, "I was stoned, and they said I was scared." Then he changed the subject: "Your name is so nice, since you are already one of my men, you must fly over when I call you by name!" ”
"Where's your name?"
"Reiko"
"Reiko..."
"Goodbye then." The girl waved goodbye to the youkai.
In the darkness, the monster continued to call the girl's name "Reiko", year after year, spring to autumn, cold to summer, over and over again, but no one answered.
"I wasn't called today, so lonely and lonelier than before."
"Give me back, give me back the name, no matter how much I wait for you to call me."
Natsume's eyes were long and narrow, and he watched as the name written with demonic power sank into the monster's body little by little, and he opened his mouth to read the name of the monster "Ryogaki"
"Reiko, are you okay anymore? Doesn't it matter if you're alone? ”
"Grandmother, she... It must not be alone, thank you Ryogaki, the kind-hearted grandmother's friend. ”
The horizon has been reflected by the sunset, and what happened before seems to be a phantom, and the voice of the cat teacher sounded behind him, "Have you seen Reiko?" ”
'Hmm'
"It's a pretty much-of-a-kind guy, isn't it?" Natsume responded with a chuckle, "Can you do it?" Natsume. ”
"I want to do it," replied Natsume, a friend who clenched his hand.
"Really?"
Natsume thought to herself, maybe this is what my father and mother sent me to the world! I don't like youkai much, but whether it's good or bad, it's also an 'encounter'.
