Dimensional Apartment Manager

There was a big tree that had collapsed on the ground in the clearing. It was probably because of the collapse of the big tree that there was a clearing around here.

"Oh ho ho! Oh ho ho!"

So the two saw the monster circling on the weed-covered tree trunk.

The monster looks a bit like a human's enlarged thumb, but it is wearing a kimono, its body color is gray, round, with a pair of black eyes blinking, and the size of the pupils cannot be seen clearly.

"excuse me!"

"Oh ho ho! You are... Natsume Reiko? Natsume Reiko is here?"

The monster muttered loudly, but immediately wiped his eyes, lowered his head and said in a depressed tone

"You were... Natsume Reiko's grandson at that time, right?"

"Sorry I'm late, I didn't expect you to come here."

"There's no place to stay, no place to play."

The thumb monster approached with a shaking body, and it only noticed Jiu Ye on the way

"New humans! New humans!"

The Thumb Monster shouted, and raised his slender arms to cover his eyes, looking like a clumsy monster.

"Calm down, he's not a bad guy and won't hurt you."

"I'm not afraid."

"That's good, I'll give you my name back now."

"That... Natsume Reiko, isn't she coming?"

"As I said before, grandma has passed away."

"Passed away? Is that why Natsume Reiko disappeared? You won't come to visit the temple fair with me anymore. The human temple fair in summer is very beautiful and interesting."

For this monster, it still doesn't quite understand the meaning of Natsume's words.

"I think so."

Natsume didn't know how to answer, only a brief response.

Then they sat on the tree trunk cleaned by the thumb monster, and Natsume took out the friend account from his arms.

He tore off the contract and bit it in his mouth, clasped his palms together and concentrated, and exhaled instantly.

Since returning the name will consume a lot of physical strength, Jiuye is required to accompany him. At the same time, this is also Jiuye's responsibility. Thankfully, Teacher Cat can rest assured.

For some reason, Jiuye, who was standing aside and waiting, also felt a slightly warm breath drifting in front of him, as if he could see some pictures.

Then, those pictures turned from blurry to clear——

The monster in light clothes wandered alone at the midsummer temple fair, as if turning into a wisp of smoke and going with the wind, lightly poured a glass of fine wine, and smiled alone watching the children who were amused by the adults and happy with the prizes; the naughty guy It was to run to the nearby clear stream, lightly touch the slightly cold water in summer with bare feet, and the water surface reflecting the fire seemed to be dotted with stars all over the sky, causing the fish to gather together.

He was alone on the tree without being seen by anyone. Although he liked the scene in front of him, he couldn't get close to it, for fear that if he stretched out his hand, he would destroy everything in front of him.

A unique monster, a little fat, as if his body was covered with dust, gray, and his dark eyes seemed to have lost other colors.

But when he took a second sip of his drink, he heard a human voice, and the other party looked at him clearly.

He never thought that such a thing would happen, because he was lonely, so he longed for companionship and care like a child.

Now he can be sure that he was seen by the human girl.

"Hey! You look boring by yourself! Do you want to play a game? Bet our names!"

Short, not long, interesting memories...

And the name of this monster is——

【excellent】.

"Thank you, Yuu."

Hearing the thank you, the youkai tilted his body, and he didn't seem to understand the reason for Natsume's thanks.

"Grandma is very happy."

"Very happy!"

So the monster began to dance, like a child receiving a gift.

Sure enough, monsters are not bad people...

They are gentle, and then, also lonely.

The game of betting on the name is not to make the other party surrender to oneself, it is just... for a little bit of happiness and joy.

Natsume's "Book of Friends" has always been such a beautiful thing.

hum hum!

postscript

Meeting for the first time, meeting again, this is the unreliable and sniped demon king.

The 'Sua Shrine' mentioned in this volume can be regarded as the 'Aso Shrine' that pinched him.

Aso Shrine is located in Kumamoto Prefecture (Kumamoto Prefecture is also the prototype of Yahara Prefecture where Natsume lives, or the stage background), and has a history of 500 years (the building gate and worship hall collapsed in the earthquake), people can't help but sigh the time the rapid passage of time.

Just as buildings collapse due to an earthquake, the relationship between people will also be affected by various factors, not to mention the monsters in different worlds.

For monsters, a year is just an instant, but for humans, it is very long; to play with friends, to travel with family, to study with classmates, to work hard in the company, there are many things to do, once established The 'margin' of this may also be broken.

So the theme of this volume of stories can be said to be 'reconstruction after destruction'.

Whether it is the relationship with others or the place where you live, it is not something that cannot be found after disappearing.

The gentleness of Natsume Takashi and the "enthusiasm" of the cat teacher all make this story extra warm.

Of course, there are many deficiencies, places that make people feel ridiculous, or places that make people feel stupid, but if someone likes it, it is the best ending for individuals.

The story of the somewhat sloppy protagonist will continue, and I hope that the 'fate' with you will also continue.

If anyone is happy, it must be my pleasure;

If someone is unhappy, there must be my shortcomings;

Even so, don't give up on anything!Even if it's not an interesting story for me! (It's actually quite interesting! Probably!)

Volume [-] The Landlord Conquers the World?This prologue presents a... interview for a better world?

[I remember that a novel writer said: 'The way to make characters more vivid and three-dimensional is to let them talk'; Ben Meng Xinzhushen explained it this way, the author meant to say, 'You guys, give me more self-talk Soliloquy!Isn't it all alone anyway? ! 'This feeling. 】

"It's as if we are the characters of a novel, and the Lord God, what you said just now is obviously an enemy of all authors, right? Do you want to be an R·B·Q type of retarded Lord God? There is a goddess who has become a fool oh."

[That’s not what it means, I personally feel that compared to the old-fashioned way of dialogue, giving benefits, opening Wushuang, etc. looks more interesting; this is the case in this era, too ordinary things are boring, The Lord God strongly believes that everyone should be allowed to travel to the world they want to travel to! 】

"Impossible, Lord God, because the earth often becomes a place that other traversers want to travel to. If there is no one on the earth, wouldn't the other party be bored to death soon after crossing over?"

[It's really troublesome... Then, as a survey, can you tell me what kind of girl you like? 】

Jiuye, who was resting in the backyard of the apartment, heard the main god asking himself this question, and the topic changed too quickly before he could react.

[I'm asking what kind of girl you want to have sex with. 】

"Hey, what you said is really too much. The two people's relationship is not for sex. There are many more interesting things than sex. Otherwise, this world would be too boring."

[Sorry, sorry, so what kind of girl do you like?Let's start this conversation with 'beautiful girl' as the benchmark. 】

"I think this kind of beginning is also very stupid. The boundary between beauty and ugliness has always been blurred; I personally think that the difference between a beautiful girl and an unbeautiful girl is not the appearance, but the person. After all, the face is your parents. Give it, who will toss and toss."

【Apologize!Apologize like all plastic surgery stars!Apologies for the wooden chairs in my room! ! ! 】

"Why are you so excited, and did the wooden chair in your room have plastic surgery?! I had a problem with my speech just now. My fault. To be precise, it is 'if you don't want it, you can't do it'. Of course, it is normal to pursue beauty. In the past, I also thought about knocking off the legs and filling them in to increase my height. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a height of 1.8 meters.”

In the end, Jiuye gave up. Apart from the high cost of the operation, it was... Anyway, it would be scary.

Now Jiuye thinks it is right for him to give up. He is neither tall nor short and of medium stature.

"If I have to say it, I think Miss Kuang San can be the first choice for a girlfriend. After all, she has the attributes of Hei Changzhi and Yujie, and she has a good figure, but her personality... This makes people love and hate, I I want a girlfriend with a more ordinary personality."

[Tokisaki Kurumi is this lady?Her personality is indeed a bit weird, I believe this is also related to her experience, but what's wrong with the space quake every day after marriage? 】

"... You ZZ, space shock is not that space shock!"

[Calm down, my real estate manager, since Miss Kuang San can't satisfy all of them, what kind of girl do you like as a single girl with many requirements? 】

What a master god who likes to talk nonsense, Jiuye thought to himself after cursing a few words.

When it comes to the type he likes, Jiuye actually hasn't really thought about it carefully, and he doesn't have many opportunities to take the initiative to go with the flow.

Of course, I'm not saying that Jiuye is an ascetic person, who doesn't want to be the king of Harlem?If there is a guy who doesn't want to be, then that person must be someone who has a childhood sweetheart or a cute sister, so let's kill him.

And there is another thing Jiuye likes to do, which is similar to Orihara Rin, but not as "fascinated" by him.

If Orihara Rin only added "abnormal" and "extraordinary" as an "information dealer", then Jiuye used the identity of "clown", and it is a changeable "clown".

"After thinking about it, it turns out that the first point is a gentle character."

[It's really ordinary, I thought you could say gentle skirts. 】

"That's just a perverted speech..."

Gentle skirt... Whose skirt is not gentle?Unless the other party stares at you who got under the skirt with strange things, making your heart chill... Wait, this topic can't continue.

[OK, speaking of tenderness, the little girl Himeragi in Dimensional Apartment is very gentle. 】

"But she likes that vampire, right? Even if I get him to live here, it's probably hard to intervene between them. I'm not an NTR madman; of course it's not impossible, unless it's not in other world lines. I like Miss Himeragi from Akatsuki Castle."

[What are you talking about, NTR is exciting just thinking about it!Not by NTR. 】

"Shut up for me."

[Okay, the next attribute. 】

"In terms of attributes, you thought it was an artificial woman... Cough cough cough, the next one, besides character, isn't there only appearance and figure left? Family background doesn't matter."

After all, she is an ordinary girl.

【Looks like Izuna, body is exactly the same as Nangong that month, is that OK?Is that right? 】

"That's not true! And that kind of adult young wife is also illegal in the United States."

It should be said that, I believe that many people like that kind of cute girl, after all, it will make people have a desire to protect.

Of course, this 'cute' attribute also includes natural attributes. Girls with natural attributes are basically very popular in any work, except for natural girls who become magical girls...

Therefore, Jiuye thinks that girls with natural attributes are very good!For example, Tokisaki Kurumi in the second edition!

[Sure enough, after much deliberation, there is only the third madam in the apartment right now, you are unexpectedly difficult. 】

"Miss Kuang San? I once assumed that I would marry her, but... I had a few nightmares. Although it was very comfortable, it was a nightmare. It was really subtle."

alright!alright!The main god in the form of a white-collar beauty clapped his hands in mid-air

[Let's discuss the boy we like, assuming you are a girl. 】

"...if I were a girl I would, but now I'm a man."

[What a trouble, if I knew it would turn you into a woman, come now! 】

"Tsk, let me think about it."

Jiu Ye thought that if he became a girl, he would probably choose this way...

"The first is height. It is acceptable to be taller than me, and it is acceptable to be shorter. Too tall or too short is not acceptable."

[It's normal, don't you ask for looks? 】

"Of course, don't be too sissy, be masculine, and if possible, a good voice is also a standard."

[You guys are originally a voice actor. 】

"Can't you? Miss Kuangsan and Miss Himeragi's cursing voices are amazing!"

[Hidden hentai? ! 】

"It's a gentleman!"
