Zongman: Is It Okay For High School Students To Know How To Breathe?

A sharp slash hit the one-eyed monster's arm directly, and with a scream, the monster let go of his hand in pain, and a deep bone-deep wound opened on his arm.

"Don't worry, I'm only using a bamboo knife. With your monster physique, you will recover in a few days."

"Natsume-kun, I haven't seen you for a few days, how are you doing?"

Looking at Zao Menyun standing in front of him, and the monster whose half arm was cut off.

Natsume Takashi seemed to be frightened by Zao Menyun, and he still ran towards the shrine.

"...he wouldn't... think of me as a monster, right?"

Zao Menyun's face darkened, then he glared at the two monsters, and followed them unhurriedly.

Just when Zao Menyun had just arrived inside the shrine, he heard a deep roar.

"There are monsters!"

Zao Menyun pulled out the bamboo knife, and saw that the ground in front of Natsume Takashi suddenly exploded, and then a fat cat with a snow-white body and an orange-gray back appeared.

"Huh? A fat cat."

"How rude!"

"But seeing that I am not moved, you two humans are really arrogant."

After Natsume Takashi heard that, he ignored the fat cat, but looked at Zao Menyun behind him.

"Are you human?"

"Nonsense! Aren't you human too? I'm actually similar to you. I was born able to see those things, but I just learned some abilities to decipher them."

Natsume Takashi hurriedly stood up, came to Zao Menyun and bowed.

"Thank you very much for saving me just now, and then, I'm sorry, I did treat you as a monster."

"It's okay, it's okay," Zao Menyun waved his hand.

"I just... saw your appearance, and thought of myself."

Hearing this, Natsume Takashi's eyes suddenly showed a touch of excitement, but he quickly suppressed it.

Since childhood, Natsume Takashi was the first time to meet someone who had the same experience as himself.

"Hey! Hey! You two, don't ignore me!"

The fat cat on the ground jumped and cursed.

Then I saw Fat Mao staring at Natsume Takashi, and said slowly.

"You, shouldn't be Natsume Reiko."

"Reiko...Natsume Reiko is my grandmother." Natsume Takashi said.

"Is that so, you are Reiko's grandson. I see, you are a boy."

It was the first time for Natsume Takashi to see a monster who seemed to be familiar with his grandmother, so he looked at that kind of fat cat and asked seriously.

"You know my grandmother!"

"Well, she is a very beautiful woman. And like you, she can see monsters. No one can understand her, so she is always alone."

"Alone..."

"I used to be alone because of you monsters." Zao Menyun interrupted suddenly.

"Ah...Me too..." Takashi Natsume nodded slightly.

"So... Natsume, did you know that your grandmother has a friend account?"

"Book of Friends?" Natsume Takashi looked at Sha Mao and thought for a while before saying.

"In that case..." But before Natsume finished speaking, the fat cat had disappeared.

And Zao Menyun looked at the direction where the cat disappeared, and said to Natsume Takashi calmly.

"Natsume-san, if you believe me, I can tell you that I am naturally able to detect the malice and kindness of other people. That demon cat is not malicious to you, but it must have its unknown purpose."

"Is that so..." Natsume Takashi patted the dust off his body and said to Zao Menyun with a smile.

"Thank you today, see you tomorrow." Natsume nodded.

But Zao Menyun put his hand on Natsume Takashi's shoulder and said seriously.

"Natsume-san, if I'm not wrong, that cat will definitely come to you again."

"Today, may I bother you at your house?"

"Eh? Come to my house!"

Natsume Takashi looked at Zao Menyun. It is very common for students to invite classmates to their home.

But for Natsume Takashi who is often alone....it is a novel feeling.

"Uh, if you have anything to do at home, I won't bother you."

"No....I'm fine, since that's the case, welcome to Zaomen."

.....

"Is this your home?"

"Well, I am the adopted son of this family. Because of my own reasons, I am always pushed around by my relatives. I am very grateful to Fujiwara Uncle and Toko Aunt!"

Walking into the yard, I saw a middle-aged woman drying clothes.

"Tazi Aunt, I'm back."

"Ah, Natsume is back, why is he so dirty, who else is there?"

"Ah, I just accidentally fell down. This is a classmate from our school. He is a guest at home today."

Zao Menyun also nodded slightly to Tazi Aunt, then said with a smile.

"Hello, Aunt Toko. I'm Natsume's friend and classmate. I'm here to bother you today."

"Yeah, it's okay. You guys go in quickly, don't stand outside the door. And Natsume, go change your clothes, just take off the dirty clothes."

.....

Natsume Takashi's room on the second floor.

"Zaomen, remember to never mention anything about monsters to Tazi Aunt."

Zao Menyun nodded, "I understand, most people in this world just think we are weird."

"By the way, are you their adopted son?"

"Well, my parents passed away very early, and I have been staying with my relatives. I came to Chiba last month. Because this is where my grandmother used to stay!"

Natsume Takashi smiled, then suddenly thought of something, and took out a wooden box from the closet.

"That's it, what the cat mentioned just now."

Takashi Natsume picked up a dark green book, which seemed to be quite old.

"Is this the account of friends that the fat cat was talking about? What is the account of friends?" Zao Menyun also came over and said.

"Who knows," Natsume flipped through the account of friends, and there were some strange handwriting in it.

"Speaking of which, how did Zaomen know my grandma's name?"

"I heard from the nearby monsters that they seem to be looking for your grandma."

Natsume nodded, and then the two of them didn't speak.

At this time, a white light suddenly flashed in Natsume's room. "Hmph, this is the friend account! Hurry up and hand over the friend account!"

Zao Menyun picked up the bamboo knife on the ground in an instant, and then saw a fat cat slamming into the wall.

.....

Natsume looked at the fat cat, sighed too, and pulled him out of the wall.

Then came three slices of watermelon from downstairs.

"Let's go after eating."

"You are a diner here, Natsume." Fat Cat suddenly looked at Natsume and said.

"It's so noisy, it's obviously a cat." Natsume took out a cat teasing stick from nowhere.

When Zao Menyun saw the fat cat smelling of watermelon, he also put down his bamboo knife and heaved a sigh of relief.

"A cat demon?"

"I'm not a cat! I'm not that low-level cat demon either!"

"This lucky cat is not my original form. I was just sealed. The real me has an extremely beautiful appearance!"

Natsume nodded, "Well... so it's still a cat now."

Then he raised the cat teasing stick, and Fat Mao really started playing with the cat teasing stick.

"This... this is just a habit!!!"

"Hey, hurry up and leave after eating, I don't want to get into trouble."

"Cut, I'm not leaving." The cat said while eating the watermelon.

"Because you have a friend's account in your hand! By the way, you are kind to me by breaking the barrier, so I will be your bodyguard. Of course, I have also booked a friend's account! Remember to call me teacher in the future!"

Natsume listened, and then looked at the book of friends.

Zao Menyun also ate the watermelon and said, "Hey, cat demon, what is that account of friends doing?"

After hearing this, Natsume also looked at the cat, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
