"Stupid Natsume, you dare to look down on me."

The cat teacher held the wine bottle with two fat paws and drank it with a clatter.

Two blush appeared on the chubby cat's face, and it looked a little drunk.

In fact, the current mood of the cat teacher is not difficult to understand.

In the afternoon, he was seriously injured in order to protect Natsume, and when he didn't want to go back, he saw Natsume holding another cat.

It felt like I had been betrayed.

Around, there are quite a few youkai looking at the cat teacher with a frightened expression.

They don't know what happened to this terrible monster today.

The cat teacher also noticed them, and roared directly: "It's noisy!" What to see! Get out of here! ”

As he spoke, he threw an empty wine bottle out.

All the monsters were shocked and hurriedly dodged away.

"Good! Let's sing a song. ”

The cat teacher said drunkenly, and then he was about to open his mouth.

At this time, Kakashi came out of nowhere and landed beside the cat teacher.

"Don't be open, your own people. I just listened to the light onion music the other day, and I don't want to hear strange sounds so soon. ”

The cat teacher came back to his senses and looked at Kakashi with a smile on his face.

"Hey, it's you."

As he spoke, Mr. Cat took another sip of wine.

"What? As a cat, do you still learn to borrow wine to drown your sorrows? Kakashi laughed.

"I don't, I just want to drink it." Teacher Cat snorted coldly.

"Really? You didn't drink like this before. I don't know how happy I am when I drink it, but now I am on your face, but I only see the word bitterness. ”

"Stupid! I didn't! It's just that today's wine is not good! The more I drink, the angrier I get! ”

As he spoke, he took another bite.

Kakashi smiled and shook his head, the cat was getting fatter, but it also seemed to be getting more and more arrogant.

Picking up the bottle next to him, Kakashi somehow took out a wine glass, filled it, and drank it down.

"Bastard! That's my wine! Teacher Cat shouted angrily.

"Don't be so stingy, it's just a little wine. Besides, you don't have more dessert than that at my house. Kakashi laughed.

Seeing this, the cat teacher just snorted coldly and didn't say anything more.

After thinking about it, he did eat a lot at Kakashi's house.

Seeing this, Kakashi poured another glass of wine, gently touched the bottle in the cat-sensei's arms, and smiled, "Cheers." ”

After saying that, he drank it again.

Teacher Cat was not polite, and drank it with a bottle of wine.

"I can't tell you how much you drink." Kakashi laughed.

"Well, that's just a little bit. You're underestimating me, too. ”

"Of all the cats I know, you're the best drinker."

"Stupid, I'm not a cat. I'm a noble monster. It's not those stupid cats that humans breed! ”

The cat teacher said, and hiccuped.

"Still angry with Natsume?" Kakashi laughed.

"Hmph, I didn't. What Natsume, what kind of friend account, I don't care. He's just my pet, and if I'm upset one day, I'll just eat him. Teacher Cat said viciously.

"You won't."

"I will!"

"You won't."

Kakashi smiled and looked intently at the cat sensei.

Teacher Cat looked at him for a moment, snorted coldly, and looked away with a weak heart.

"Kitten, human life is short for youkai. While there's still time, stay with Natsume. You know, Natsume's feelings for you are different from ordinary people. The cat was just a temporary foster care from Uncle Zi's friend. ”

Kakashi said, taking the opportunity to rub the cat teacher's fat head.

Something flashed in the cat's teacher's eyes, and then he said coldly: "Hey, how can I care about this." ”

"You'll care."

"I won't!"

"You will."

The eyes of the two intertwined again, and the cat teacher was defeated again.

"Kitten, this kind of thing is a very magical thing. You can restrain it, but you can't stop it. I don't know why you chose to stay with Natsume in the first place. But these days with Natsume, I know that you have become acquainted. ”

Teacher Cat squinted, surprisingly unrefuted.

"A few days ago, I met a monster named Tanuki Chase, I'm sure you know it."

"Is it a raccoon chasing? That naïve king of the forest. Teacher Cat muttered.

"Yes. He was sealed. By accident, I broke the seal. The first thing after unraveling. He went to find the hunter he had once befriended. But unfortunately, the hunter has long since died. ”

"Hey, human life is really short." Teacher Cat said disappreciatively.

"Yes, humans and youkai don't have the same time. That's why youkai don't want to be associated with humans. It's just a kitten, between you and Natsume, you've already bonded. ”

Teacher Cat's eyes were full of inexplicable emotions, and he said leisurely after a long time: "Between me and him, it's just a bad fate." ”

Kakashi smiled, "Bad fate is also fate, you can't live without him anymore, can't you?" ”

"Stupid! How can it be! I'm a monster close to the realm of the gods, how could I be inseparable from a human! I'm staying with him now, just to get a friend's account! ”

"Friend account? You're really not upright. According to Natsume's trend, that friend's account, in a few years, will only be left with the cover. Isn't it? ”

"Hmph, maybe Natsume will die halfway through......"

Halfway through, the cat teacher didn't continue.

"Alright, don't make a fuss. Natsume is also worried about you, so go back quickly. ”

Kakashi said, getting up and standing up.

"Humph!"

Teacher Cat snorted lightly, as if she was still hesitating about something.

"It's not too early, so I won't accompany you."

Kakashi smiled and turned to leave.

Seeing Kakashi walking farther and farther, the cat teacher muttered, "It's really boring to just leave." ”

As he spoke, he took another sip.

But at this time, the originally strong wine seemed a little bland and tasteless.

The night is getting darker, and the forest is full of the sound of the wind.

Originally, this was a familiar environment for the cat teacher, but at this time, it made him feel a little desolate.

Thinking of the warm quilt in Natsume's room and Aunt Tazi's delicious food, the cat teacher was a little nostalgic for a while.

He was originally a beast in the forest, but now he seems to be a bit of a domestic cat.

But for some reason, he surprisingly enjoyed the feeling.

"Forget it, don't be angry with Natsume's stupid guy, let's go back to sleep quickly. Hey, hey, hey, warm bed, I'll do it. ”

Teacher Cat said and ran back to Fujiwara's house in a hurry.

Home may be a place where you will go back no matter how far you go.

And at this time, for the cat teacher, where Natsume is there, it is home.

When the cat teacher returned to Fujiwara's house, it was already late at night.

Natsume was originally a little worried and couldn't sleep, but in the end, she couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.

In a daze, I seemed to hear the familiar sound of the window opening.

Immediately, a familiar weight pressed on his bed, and there was a smell of wine.

Natsume didn't wake up, but she couldn't help but feel at ease in her heart.

"Teacher Cat, are you back?"

Whispering softly, like a dream, like a call.

The cat teacher was stunned for a moment and looked at Natsume, who was still asleep.

Maybe it was just a knee-jerk reaction.

"What a fool."

The tone was a little reproachful, but it seemed a little spoiled.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Cat."

The soft words sounded again, and the cat teacher couldn't help but shrink his pupils, and then his eyes took on a half-moon shape, and he whispered: "Stupid." ”

The quilt was gently concave, and everything seemed to be back to its original state.

The next day.

The sunlight woke Natsume up, and the familiar weight of her body returned.

Looking at the cat teacher who was still asleep, Natsume smiled.

"Welcome back, Mr. Cat."

The cat teacher stretched, but seemed to fall asleep again.

Natsume stroked the cat teacher's hair, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Stupid."

……

As time passed, Kakashi's life gradually became fuller.

With Natsume, it seems that there is something to deal with.

For example, this night is destined to be a sleepless night.

"Natsume? What are you doing here? ”

The doorbell rang, and Kakashi opened the door, only to see Natsume standing in the doorway.

"Kakashi-sensei, I'm sorry to bother you so late." Natsume said apologetically.

"It's nothing, but what's wrong with you? It looks like it's painful. ”

Natsume was clutching his left arm tightly at this time, as if there was something on it.

"Stupid, can't you see it? This guy was cursed. ”

"The voice of a kitten? Where is that guy? ”

Kakashi said suspiciously, but he couldn't see the cat-sensei's voice.

"Stupid! I am here! ”

Kakashi followed the sound and saw that there was something the size of a finger next to Natsume's feet.

If you look closely, it's the cat teacher.

Seeing this, Kakashi couldn't help but laugh and said, "Hahaha, little kitten, how did you become like this." ”

"Bastard! Now is not the time to laugh at me! ”

The cat teacher said, jumping to his feet, trying to use his paws to make a mark on Kakashi's face.

But it's a pity that Kakashi didn't let him mess around.

"Little kitten, you're like this, don't mess around. Natsume, you come in first, and talk about something slowly. ”

Kakashi said, two fingers pinching the kitty sensei.

"Hmm."

Natsume replied softly and walked in.

And the cat teacher is constantly struggling to break free from Kakashi's clutches.

"Bastard! Let me go! ”

It's just a pity that Kakashi didn't mean to let go.

In the living room, Kakashi poured Natsume a cup of hot water and said, "Something's wrong." ”

Just as Natsume was about to speak, a black figure appeared behind Kakashi.

"Ahh

Natsume was shocked and quickly stood up.

"Black cat teacher?" Natsume was surprised.

At this time, Tanuki also jumped on the table.

"You have the breath of Reiko on you, it seems that you are Natsume." Tanuki said in a low voice.

Natsume looked puzzled and said, "Yes, I am." Kakashi-sensei, what's going on? ”

Kakashi laughed, "He's a tanuki, just like a kitten, who was sealed in a cat's container before. I happened to break the seal a few days ago, so I followed me all along. Anyway, his name should also be in the friend's account, and he originally wanted to find you to come back, but he always forgot it. ”

"I see." Natsume whispered.

The cat teacher jumped on the head of the raccoon chase and snorted coldly: "Hmph, my appearance is better, this black and non-slippery appearance is really ugly." ”

The raccoon chased the cat teacher and said with a smile: "You really dare to say it like this now." ”

"Bastard! Don't laugh at me! ”

The cat teacher waved his little paws and shouted, but it was just like that, and it was really not half threatening.

"Alright, you two don't mess around. Natsume, let's talk about it, what the hell is going on? ”

Natsume stretched out his left hand when he heard this, and a strange black pattern appeared on his forearm.

"Kakashi-sensei, I was attacked by a youkai today, this mark he left on me. The cat teacher also became like this because he accidentally touched this mark. Do you know what this mark is? ”

Kakashi grabbed Natsume's arm, looked at it carefully, and said, "This sigil looks a bit like the Five Day Seal. ”

"Five-day seal? What is that? Natsume curious.

"There are some immobile monsters that will place a five-day seal on passing prey. As the name suggests, the Five Day Seal will absorb the vitality of the prey within five days, or lure the prey in front of you and eat it. This youkai has enough vitality to be able to move freely. Natsume, it seems that you are being targeted by such a youkai. ”

"Is there a way for the teacher to get rid of it?" Natsume asked.

Kakashi shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't have that ability. I'm not familiar with the curse marks of youkai. ”

"That's the case, so what to do......"

Kakashi thought for a moment and said, "I remember that Yahara has a youkai named C who knows a lot about spell marks, maybe you can try him." ”

"C? Is her name in the friend's tent too? Natsume asked.

"C's name is not in the friend's account."

At this time, the cat teacher suddenly said.

"Teacher Cat, do you know C?"

"Of course, that's a troublesome woman. But she did know a thing or two about the sigils. It's just that I'm afraid I can't go to her now. Natsume, you use your friend's tent to summon the last time you saw Mishino. He is very familiar with C and should help us find C. The cat said.

"Use a friend's account to summon youkai?" Natsume was surprised.

"Stupid! That's the proper way to use a friend's account, not to return a name, as you do. Follow me and I'll show you how to use a friend's account. ”
