Scissors that cut out cause and effect

During the last festival, he did not insist on sending Asamori back.

"Natsume, have you ever asked me what this bodyguard means?"

"I'll buy Nanatsujiya steamed buns for you tomorrow."

"make a deal!"

So, the next itinerary for two people and one cat is set!

On the way, Asamori asked Natsume what happened to the fireflies just now, so Natsume told what he encountered one by one.Asamori listened quietly.

After finishing speaking, Natsume asked Asamori: "What if... one day, you suddenly can't see youkai?"

"What will happen?" Asamori repeated Natsume's question, and then said without hesitation: "I will still live as before."

"Don't you feel sad?" Natsume knew that Asamori liked these monsters very much, even if they were not all good monsters, Asamori didn't care at all, and it couldn't change her love for monsters.

"That's something that can't be helped, isn't it? Besides, I couldn't see youkai three years ago, so even if I really can't see them one day, I won't feel sad. Because, the memory of meeting them It has already been imprinted in my mind and remains in my heart.”

"Eh? Did you only see monsters three years ago?"

"That's right. Youkai became visible due to a sudden incident. As for what it is...I'll tell you next time I have a chance. I'm home, Natsume."

After Asamori's proposal, Natsume realized that they had already reached the door.Because Aunt Tazi and the others had already fallen asleep, there was no light in the whole house.Natsume asked Asamori to wait in the living room first, but Asamori refused.

"I'll wait for you at the entrance. If I go in, it may disturb my aunt and their rest."

"Alright then, I'll be right down!"

Natsume returned to his room with Mr. Kitty, found clean clothes and changed quickly, and took out the flashlight from the drawer.Although there are street lights, they are not very effective. In some places, it is still difficult to see the road under your feet. Just in case, you still have to bring a flashlight.

After getting ready, Natsume woke up Mr. Cat who was asleep at the side.

"Teacher, we should go."

"Natsume, I don't recommend that you have too much contact with that human being."

"What's the meaning."

"That human has a very strong smell of monsters. It can be said that she is not sure whether she is human."

When Natsume heard what Mr. Cat said, the hand that opened the door paused, but then recovered.

"But I didn't feel anything. Besides, if it's what Teacher Cat said, I also believe that she has no malicious intentions."

"Whatever you think." Mr. Cat brought up this matter, just wanting Natsume to pay attention.

Going downstairs with Mr. Cat, Asamori stood at the entrance, still in the same posture that Natsume had before going upstairs, extremely upright, as if he had never changed.

"It's been a long time, let's go."

It was Natsume's first visit to Asamori's house, so she didn't know the way.He walked side by side with Asamori, and Asamori pointed out the place of transfer from time to time, indicating that Natsume was in this direction.

Two people and one cat seemed very quiet at this moment.No one spoke first to break the tranquility.

Natsume really wanted to ask Asamori what happened to be able to see the monster.Although Asamori said just now that he would tell him the next time he has a chance, seeing Asamori's appearance now, he has no intention of speaking at all.

Let's listen when she wants to say something.Everyone has their own story, and when they want to speak, they will naturally speak.

So, all the way silent.

The author has something to say:

14. Daily X Hug...

It was an ordinary morning.Asamori packed himself up, picked up the schoolbag and bento placed in the entrance, and embarked on the road to school that he would walk several times every day.On the way, I met a classmate who was on the same road as me, got greetings from the other party, and asked back, but I would not walk with others.

Since youkai can be seen, being with ordinary people will always cause unnecessary trouble, so Asamori always shows distant respect to others.Although it was only three years ago that she had this special ability that distinguished her from others, she also knew that such an ability was not accepted by everyone.

However, Natsume is different.Natsume can see monsters just like her, and she has no malice or intention to use monsters.After getting along for a while, Asamori gradually let go of his guard.Everyone has a secret, and the book of friends is Natsume's secret, but Asamori knows this secret through other monsters, and Asamori himself has a secret, but Natsume doesn't know it.

Do you want to tell Natsume?Asamori always thinks this way.

Just wait and see...

After Asamori once again declined a classmate's invitation to go to school together, he saw Natsume greeting a classmate in front of the road.The moment Natsume said "good morning", Natsume's whole aura became a little different.How should I put it...?Although he still smiled the same way, it made people feel that the person standing opposite him was a girl and not a boy.

Apparently, the male classmate who greeted Natsume felt the same way. He froze for a moment and was attracted by Natsume in front of him.

However, I always feel that there is something strange.

Asamori thought he had read it wrong, so he stepped forward and said hello to Natsume.Natsume, who had regained his senses, returned his greetings, but it was still the same as usual.

Could it be that I just misread it?After passing his own experiment, Asamori had some regrets. At that moment, Natsume looked...beautiful.If you still have a chance to meet, be sure to take a photo as a souvenir.

Now that he has greeted Natsume, Asamori is not going to walk away, but walks to the school with Natsume.Such a move just resolved the embarrassing atmosphere between Natsume and that boy.But because of the sudden distraction just now, the boy made excuses and left embarrassingly.

Asamori thought that the scene he saw in the morning was his own illusion.But when get out of class was over, Natsume suddenly found that Natsume's hair had grown longer as she was walking on the stairs, and she felt more like a girl with an elegant temperament. Asamori finally understood that all this was not an illusion.

——Natsume, probably possessed by some monster.

Sure enough, in the next class, some monster suddenly appeared on Natsume's desk.The monster stepped on Natsume's table with one foot and looked down at Natsume.At this moment, Asamori really felt admiration for Natsume.If a monster appeared in front of her so suddenly, she must not be as calm as Natsume and able to communicate in a low voice.

During the lunch break, Asamori brought the bento he had made to the rooftop for dinner.Halfway through, someone opened the door and walked in.The place where Asamori was sitting could not be found immediately, and the person who came up did not carefully check whether there were people around, and walked directly to the iron railing and started talking.

It's Natsume.

A female voice was speaking with him.Probably the monster possessed by Natsume.Just like the elegant temperament that Asamori felt today, so is the voice of the monster, soft and hard to disgust.

The voice kept apologizing, apologizing for the other genie's reckless behavior.

Just as they were talking to each other, Asagi couldn't help but interrupted them.

"Natsume, there are other people up here."

"What?" Natsume turned around when he heard the voice.He could tell from the voice that it was Asamori, but where was Asamori?

Then, Natsume saw Asamori coming out from the shadow of the rooftop.It was hard to notice anyone around that corner, so it was understandable that Natsume didn't notice her.

"Besides me, there are other people on here, be careful not to be discovered."

"I came to the rooftop specifically because I thought there was no one else here. I didn't expect there to be places I couldn't see."

"Even if there is no one now, people will appear at any time." Asamori obviously has a lot of experience in avoiding other people and communicating with monsters.She sat down against the iron railing, and then said to Natsume, "It's okay now, ordinary people can't hear the monster's voice, even if someone comes up, they will think you are talking to me."

"Thank you." Natsume never expected Asamori to be so careful.

Qian Cong, who was originally quiet because there was one more person, spoke again.

"My lord...why are you here?" But this time, Asagi didn't talk to Natsume, but asked Asagi who had just appeared.

"My lord...?" Natsume looked at Asamori in confusion.

Asahi Mori, who was leaning against the iron fence, was not surprised, and continued to eat half of the bento left in his hand.Finally, after swallowing the food in his mouth, he said: "Probably the breath on my body is the same as the breath of the monster you met before."

"That's right." Qian Cong was silent for a while, then continued, "It's impossible for that lord to appear here."

Natsume, who was listening on the sidelines, was already confused and had no idea what they were talking about.However, Natsume did not interject to ask, but quietly waited for them to finish speaking.

Just a few words of conversation ended the entire conversation.Natsume could feel Asagi's curiosity about Asagi, because he himself was also curious about the powerful evil spirit on Asagi's body that the cat teacher said, but Asagi seemed to have concerns, and didn't care about it. He didn't continue to ask, but Natsume hoped to hear Asamori take the initiative to explain to him.

Just when Natsume thought that the silent atmosphere would continue, Asagi suddenly asked him to do something with Asagi.

"Can I have another look? The way you appeared on the stairs today."
