Chapter 23 "Friends"

77

Flames of various colors dotted the forest, all kinds of amazing monsters appeared one by one, and various sounds sounded, forming a bustling and weird scene.

The black-haired boy walked unhurriedly ahead, attracted by the yelling from time to time, stopped, and exchanged items with a small bag.

—Is it monster money?

Natsume, who was no longer being watched, still felt that it was scary to be in a gathering of monsters, but his hands were held tightly all the time, and he didn't intend to let go from the beginning to the end, which inexplicably brought a sense of peace of mind.

"Huh?" Otoha seemed to feel Natsume's gaze, and looked back at the latter shaking the small bag in his hand, "This is my special snack, it can satisfy my cravings."

——Actually, it is special "bacon", which was processed by Otoha and cut into small pieces, unexpectedly popular with monsters.

Otoyu took out a small piece of jerky, quickly helped the child lift up the mask, stuffed it into the child's mouth without any explanation, and then pressed down the mask.

Natsume was taken aback, chewing the jerky in his mouth didn't make him spit or spit it out, but the salty and sweet taste of the jerky first stimulated his taste buds and aroused his appetite.

"Relax, no medicine."

The black-haired boy chuckled, and pulled Natsume forward again: "I know a fox owner who specializes in oden - I heard that the oden made by foxes is delicious?"

A big monster transformed from a huge black gas, and a boy who has turned into a human form. For some reason, he is very friendly to himself.

— Just thinking about it makes me feel confused and withdrawn.

Natsume could only let Otoha drag him to a remote corner - without any monsters, just an ordinary, very dark corner.

"Are you going to be eaten?"

Natsume closed his eyes, even though the jerky in his mouth was a little soft, he was still persistently conveying the sweet and salty taste to his nerves, making people unable to bear the temptation.

Finally, Natsume couldn't hold back, ground the jerky with his teeth, crushed it easily, and chewed it.

"boss--?"

Yi Yu patted the trees, his voice was clear and bright.

"Is it open?"

A warm light suddenly lit up in the corner, gently dispelling the darkness.

"Master Otoha, I have already retired." The fox who seemed to be old sighed helplessly, and then began to put various food into the bubbling spicy soup with all his hands and feet, "But for your sake, One last special."

"After all, I'm not familiar with your son." Otoha smiled at the fox, pulled Natsume to sit on the high stool in front of the stall, and handed the fox a large piece of dried meat that he had been carrying all along, "Here , thank you for your previous help."

"Hey, are you leaving?"

Otoha didn't answer, and let go of the hand he was holding with Natsume, and put it behind Natsume's head - where the rope was.

"I untied it?"

"Eh?" Natsume made a flustered voice, shrinking his hands, showing full "resistance".

That's why I don't want to.

Otoha's hand left the rope, seeing that Mr. Fox hadn't cooked the ingredients yet, and he was not in a hurry to fill the child's stomach—so he held hands again.

Although I don't quite understand why Natsume resisted him a bit, but the action of "holding hands" seems to make the other party feel at ease.

"Has your son gone to the center for business?"

The fox flicked its tail, and the soft white hair was shining golden under the light: "I don't dare to be too ostentatious when doing business for the first time, so I can only let him go to the food alley to join in the fun—Master Otoyu, you Don't use honorific titles for me."

Otoyu changed his words in a polite manner: "You too--is the portion of my jerky enough to feed this child?"

The fox glanced at the child wearing a smiling fox mask who hadn't spoken much, and nodded: "Of course, even if Master Otowa and this one are full, I'm still earning money."

Otoyu's jerky is not unusual for humans, but for the monsters here, it is a rare snack, and it tastes good, and the value is higher than Otoyu thought.

The "big monster" Otoha, who seems to be made of resentment, doesn't have a big appetite. The fox once fed it with oden .

As for the other kid in the fox mask—

Boss Fox shook his nose.

Undoubtedly human.

Or a human being with spiritual power.

The fox glanced at the hands they held, but didn't say anything.

He's just a fox out for one last deal.

It's just that the nose is better, and I don't know anything else.

"Okay, I hope the guests enjoy their meal."

Otoha nodded, ordered a portion of everything, and the fox pushed the bowl piled high to the black-haired boy, then looked at the other customer.

"Me?" Natsume shook his head, "I don't need to..."

He was a bit hungry, but bearable.

Otoha blinked, and didn't force it, just took the chopsticks in one hand and started cooking oden, the warm food slipped into the esophagus, making the black-haired child squint his eyes.

"Master Otoyu really likes warm food." Seeing this, the fox sighed, and then lowered his head to tidy up something.

Natsume had nothing to do, so he could only tilt his head and watch the big monster eat.

how to say……

The face of the big monster is very beautiful, and the eyes are also big. When you squint it like a cat, you want to reach out and hug it, and feel the warm hair rubbing against the skin.

This is the first time that Natsume has seen a "yokai" that can transform into a human form--the human souls he sees do not count.

The fireworks suddenly exploded in the air, and the sound of festive "咻" sounded one after another, and the black sky was dyed with a short color.

"celebration?"

Otoyu bit the "lucky bag", and his voice was a bit slurred.

"Beef balls, Otoha-sama is very lucky." The fox flicked his tail with a smile, "Just walk a few more steps over there and you will be able to reach the human festival."

"yes."

The black-haired monster let out a breath, cooling down the heat of the meatballs before taking a bite.

"Two more, take them away."

The fox responded readily, took out a disposable large bowl and filled it with oden, especially the most expensive meat, so it didn't feel bad at all to stuff it in.

Under the colors of fireworks celebrating each other and the sound of the fox saying goodbye, Otoha led Natsume, stepped on the grass, and arrived at the human festival unimpeded.

"It's so lively."

Otoha has been staying in the city, and everyone is not so keen on these festivals anymore—even there are not many pyrotechnic masters.

So he hasn't experienced the festival much, but he has seen a lot on TV.

He let go.

"Go."

In Natsume's vision restricted by the mask, only the smiling face of the black-haired boy could be seen.

"Go back to where you should be."

"Natsume?!"

Natsume subconsciously turned her head and saw her adoptive relative running over.

"Why did you suddenly disappear! Do you know how worried we are?"

"...I'm sorry." The boy lowered his head.

"Forget it..." The woman sighed, and then found the food in Natsume's hand, "Oden? Are you going to play with friends?"

Natsume looked at the bowls piled up in his hands, opened his mouth, and finally agreed with the word "friend".

"Ah."

When being led away, he subconsciously looked back.

There was nothing there.

The author has something to say: Because Natsume was indeed frightened by the monsters and is now in a low period, so he is not as calm and calm as in the original work...

Speaking of which, do you think black air is cute? ? ?Two people have already said this to me. If you think it’s cute, please reply. I will explain the hidden details of black air in my speech tomorrow.

Some people tried to force the palace today, but failed

Let me tell you, if you like mine, it’s fine if you like it. As for someone who intends to spend money on me to sign a contract and get a new update, it’s impossible!

Think about it, don’t you have nothing to eat after you finish eating the food now? ! (rub rub rub)

and!I!Underage!My parents have to approve the contract - do you think it's possible?Signing a contract is a burden, orz

Also, the cover took me two hours to paste. If you think it’s ugly, just ignore it. Good boy, it would be great if there is a cutie who is willing to paint the cover. I will pay those who force the palace (too much money to spend) to pay! (bu)

Okay, okay, just kidding, everyone reads the article just to have fun, and I write the article just to have fun, it would be great if you can be friends with me

Regarding the reply to the comments, I really want to reply, but you said "Come on" and "little angel balabala" and so on. w
