[Natsume] When the sun shines

Back in the bedroom, I silently held my stomach.

Did Hayakawa put arsenic on that bowl of corn porridge that looked good just now...why is it so unpalatable! ! !

"This is the retribution for breaking a promise!" Xiao Hei added insult to injury.

I didn't have time to pinch its tail. After glaring at it, I took a sip of warm water from a cup on one side, and breathed a sigh of relief, "The monster you mentioned just now...what's going on?"

"That dog is supposed to be a monster, but it's supposed to be a reward...it sounds like it. And..."

The pocket watch is with me, and Hayakawa gave it to me. I asked her, but she just smiled and didn't speak.

The only commemorative thing left by that dog should be very important to her, why give it to me...

"It can bring good luck." Xiao Hei stretched his neck and sniffed the pocket watch, and said in surprise, "This pocket watch has very strong blessings...it seems to bring good luck to people, and that monster really came to repay the favor of."

"……good luck?"

I seem to understand something.

Did she give it to me because it brings good luck?

I suddenly felt that the pocket watch in my hand was a bit heavy.

"A very powerful blessing." Xiao Hei commented on it in surprise, and his expression became more and more serious, "...it is a very powerful monster."

"Ok?"

"It's just a breath of blessing, it can suppress my strength!"

A golden stream of light flashed in Xiao Hei's eyes. In an instant, the golden light flickered, and a golden miniature dragon appeared in front of my eyes. It stared at the big golden eyes, and the power that belonged to the dragon suddenly radiated. But, what's amazing is...

The pocket watch was lit up, as if it had life, with beautiful purple light flickering, giving people a soft and warm feeling, different from the sharpness of gold, it was a soft purple, as if it could bring people Unrivaled luck.

I was slightly taken aback, this feeling...

OK, familiar.

Xiao Hei in the shape of a dragon narrowed his golden eyes, and I saw a faint purple light flashing inside, "...it's..."

Suddenly, Xiao Hei's eyes widened, "Is it a real dragon?"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Hei suddenly turned into a little black snake, and the warm purple light of the pocket watch seemed to come to life in an instant, and shot towards Xiao Hei!

Xiao Hei fled out of the wide open window in a flash. The pocket watch seemed to want to chase, but as soon as he left the house, he seemed to have some scruples. After circling outside for a few times, he floated back again and landed on my desk. superior.

The purple light disappeared, and the pocket watch seemed to be just an ordinary pocket watch, unchanged.

Xiao Hei looked at the pocket watch furtively outside the window.

After a while, it said, "... are you okay?"

"Probably." I wasn't sure either, I stretched out my hand and carefully picked up the watch, the warm and delicate metal texture, I weighed it, "It should be fine."

Xiao Hei took a breath, flew back, and landed on the table, a little listless.

"What?" I asked.

"I met my uncle." Xiao Hei seemed a little exhausted and unwilling, "I have been in the human world for thousands of years..."

"I haven't seen the little black snake suppressed by Reiko anywhere in the human world." I laughed at it mercilessly.

"Tch, what do you know." Xiao Hei looked at the pocket watch in my hand with disdain, and his expression became serious again, "This is the sign left by the real dragon."

"...Lately, I have a disagreement with Long."

I rubbed my temples with some headaches. The word dragon appears frequently recently...

"It's not a question of whether the horoscope is right or not, it's the ancestor of the dragon, hey!" Xiao Hei seemed a little excited, "Do you know what the ancestor of the dragon is? That is a powerful person who founded the Dragon Realm. I heard that he lived tens of thousands of people. It's been years..."

Sounds all sorts of powerful.All kinds of high-end atmosphere are upscale.

"...but are you sure that the ancestor of your dragon clan will turn into a stray dog ​​to repay his favor?"

I have some doubts.But if you think about it carefully, you will be relieved. It is normal for an old monster with tens of thousands of years to think differently from ordinary monsters... I guess.Maybe he'd gone crazy in silence long ago.

"I'm not sure. But the aura on this pocket watch is definitely left by him!" Xiao Hei's tone was extremely affirmative, "The birth of the entire dragon clan, even the innate dragons like me that were raised by nature, are inseparable from him. related."

"... so great?"

I really doubt it.

"En." Xiao Hei nodded, "Dragon Clan is born with an ability that can be cultivated, that is, the original eye that can see through everything, the eye that can see all the original source clearly, and the eyes will turn purple when they are cultivated to great success. This ability, inherited to that ancestor."

I suddenly remembered that Xiao Hei's eyes flashed a purple light just now, "Did you just... use Yuanyan?"

"Well, that's right, that's the source eye, and this watch has the source energy of that ancestor..." Xiao Hei nodded.

"Original Eye Dacheng, the eyes will all turn purple?"

"Ah."

A pair of purple eyes faintly appeared in my heart. The pure purple eyes were the first tenderness I encountered after I came to this world.

Wait!

My heart suddenly tightened, and the hand holding the pocket watch couldn't help clenching a little bit, "...Then, the eyes of the ancestor you mentioned are also purple?"

"It must be." Xiao Hei cocked his tail, "That's the ancestor, maybe he has climbed to a higher level."

No... no, no... should, it's still purple.

However, the form of that monster is not a dragon.

"...Have you seen the appearance of the ancestor? Does it look like a dragon?"

"No one has ever seen the ancestor, who knows." Xiao Hei shook his head regretfully, but then——

"Wait, are you going to give me back my cookies? Natsume already packed black chicken noodles for me..."

I silently put the pocket watch back into the drawer, and then took out a small iron box.It contains the pocket money that Hayakawa gave me, and sometimes... I really feel a little guilty for no reason.

"When I come back from school tomorrow, I will take you to the Qiqian House."

"Ow!"

When it was getting late, I went to bed early. I have never gone to bed so early. Before, I would sit silently on the table and open the window. monster.

Occasionally, I have also seen the legendary Night Walk of the Hundred Ghosts.

It was a magnificent sight.

But it is very difficult to see it once. From birth to now, the number of times I have seen it is only once.

And now... I'm afraid I'll never see it again.

It's really a pity.

The window has been closed by me, and the moonlight outside the transparent glass is soft and beautiful. I lie on the bed and watch the white moonlight streaming into the room from the window, but I can't fall asleep.

...That, the ancestor of the dragon clan, could it be that monster?

But... the ancestor of the dragon clan, it should be a dragon, how could it be that monster.

I still haven't forgotten the appearance of that monster, with black runes on its snow-white fur, a vigorous figure, and clouds all over the sky under its four feet——

And those soft purple eyes.

Only, stray dogs, and purple eyes.

so similar.

I tossed and turned, letting myself close my eyes, but after I closed my eyes, it looked like that monster.

...This is one that can't be untied, sorry.

I want to find it, no matter what it is, the ancestor of the dragon clan, or an ordinary monster, I want to find it, and then personally say to it——thank you.

Thank you for taking me from the chaotic subway to a safe orphanage.

Thank you for letting me feel the first touch of tenderness when I came to this world.

Xiao Hei sleeps soundly with his tail curled up on one side. He always likes to go to bed early and get up early. He is a dragon with a good schedule.

I sighed slightly, lifted the thin mattress on my body, hugged my legs, and stared at the white moonlight streaming down in a daze.

"What, can't sleep?"

Xiao Hei was awakened by my movement, it squirmed slowly, and then looked at me with that dark snake face.

"...Is there no other way?"

My voice is low.

Hearing this, Xiao Hei was silent for a while.In the end, he seemed to be tired, and his voice became a little tired, "If you insist... come with me."

Like a magic spell, the closed window suddenly opened wide, and the cold night wind blew in, which stimulated my arms to appear pieces of small bumps, and thin black shadows flashed past my eyes, Immediately outside the window, the dazzling golden light flashed suddenly, which made me unable to help closing my eyes, and it took me a while to recover.

A beautiful and elegant golden dragon flies out of the window, its golden dragon scales shine with a holy light, it flies close, its golden eyes as big as copper bells are facing the window, reflecting the way I hugged my legs and looked at it in a daze, thick and deep The voice was quite impatient, "What happened, stay up, come up!"

"……Oh."

I was stunned for a while before I came back to my senses, got out of bed and wanted to change a pair of shoes, but Xiao Hei seemed to become very impatient, its huge body surrounded the whole house, shining golden like a golden mountain.But his eyes were full of impatience, as if what he was about to face was the most annoying thing for him.

So I casually put on a pair of velveteen slippers, and climbed onto its close head in pink pajamas.

Carefully grasping the dragon's horns, I suddenly felt my legs tremble, looking at the height of my feet, "...you, why don't you use your claws to grab me?"

Didn't you just pinch and fly with your paws directly and straightforwardly before?

"Cut, before? Can you compare now with before?"

Xiao Hei's voice was quite disdainful, "Are you afraid of heights above my head?"

"……"how do you know!

"The voice is trembling."

Xiao Hei flicked his tail and flew into the sky, the biting cold wind blew by, and I suddenly felt... colder than taking a cold shower and blowing the wind.

Before... I obviously didn't feel anything.

Fear of heights, chills, weakness... Is this adding negative buffs?

"Without the demonic power, you can't even compare to an ordinary person." After becoming a dragon, Xiao Hei's voice became very deep and deep, "Hurry up, your previous demonic power not only affects your body, but also affects your body." soul."

"...Monster power can even affect the soul?" I felt a little unbelievable.

The author has something to say: The countdown to the end...?

It's almost over, will you still love me?

Found a bug, fix it.Um.
