The next day, after finishing the training at the Jingu family, Takashi Natsume met the lady he met yesterday on his way back to "home".

Touko Fujiwara stood at the corner, as if waiting for Takashi Natsume.

"Natsume-kun, I'm sorry to call you suddenly yesterday."

Takashi Natsume thought of the other party's introduction yesterday, "Well, you are Ms. Fujiwara..."

Touko Fujiwara smiled and said, "I thought about it carefully, and decided to let you know our intentions.

If you are willing, do you want to come to our house?"

Hearing Takako Fujiwara's words, Takashi Natsume was obviously surprised.

Fujiwara Touko continued, "Our home is much more rural than here. My husband and I live here. Although it is old, the house is very spacious. However, we don't have children, so it is too spacious for us.

Recently, I heard about you, Takashi. Of course, you don't have to force yourself. Everything depends on your decision.

But if you are willing to come, our home will definitely become more lively.

Next time I will visit with my husband, so please think about it carefully, please."

Facing Fujiwara Touko's gentle and serious eyes, Natsume Takashi's mood is hard to describe.

...

"Should I go?"

Natsume Takashi walked alone on the street, still thinking about Fujiwara Touko's proposal just now.

"She wants me to go, and others took me in because of no choice. She also wants to consider my opinion."

Such a serious treatment made Natsume Takashi feel moved, but...

"She doesn't understand me."

He didn't want to see her face showing disappointment or fear because of her own "strangeness".

Sitting on the swing in the park, Takashi Natsume's heart was constantly swinging.

At this time, the one-eyed monster that had been bothering him recently suddenly appeared.

"Natsume, come with me."

Takashi Natsume was so scared that he fell to the ground from the swing.

The one-eyed monster with long white hair stared at Natsume, and a strange smile appeared on its huge mouth:

"Come with me, Natsume. No one wants you anyway, right?"

This lonely soul...ah~ What a delicious smell!

It would be fun to raise such a human.

No one wants it, no one wants it...

"No way!" Takashi Natsume shouted.

If it was before, Takashi Natsume might agree with the monster, but now...

Jingu, Ieiri, Riki and...

The figure of Fujiwara Touko appeared in Takashi Natsume's mind.

"What's going on?" The monster's face suddenly became more terrifying.

"What happened to your soul? How did it change?!"

This soul that is no longer lonely...

"Too much! You should be alone! No, I must make you lonely again!"

The one-eyed monster was a little crazy, and Natsume Takashi was even more frightened, but the next sentence of the monster gave him courage.

"Natsume must be alone! Yes! As long as you kill the people around you, you will become alone again! I can get you, Natsume!"

"Don't joke! Bastard!"

A thread in Natsume Takashi's brain suddenly broke.

Kill the people around you?

"I will never allow such a thing!"

Natsume Takashi recalled the method taught by Jingu Tsukasa, mobilized the demon power to gather into his fist, and punched the one-eyed monster fiercely.

"It hurts!"

The one-eyed monster groaned in pain.

While the other party fell to the ground, Natsume Takashi took the opportunity to run away.

No, I must find a way to get rid of the monster!

In the next few days, perhaps because of Jingu Tsukasa's words, or perhaps for other reasons, Natsume Takashi decided to use his own method to get rid of the one-eyed monster.

So he disguised himself and mixed in with the monsters around him, constantly asking about the one-eyed monster's weaknesses or ways to get rid of it.

One day, Natsume Takashi walked towards "home" with a few leaves on his head.

Today, his human identity was exposed among the monsters, but he also knew how to seal the one-eyed monster.

"What is this?"

Walking downstairs of the apartment building, he saw Fujiwara Toko and a man walking out of the apartment building side by side.

"Could it be..."

Thinking of a possibility, Natsume Takashi ran quickly into the apartment building.

Back in the house, looking at the obvious traces of entertaining guests just now, Natsume Takashi, who was panting, smiled.

"They actually came..."

This

At that moment, he understood that he wanted to go, to Fujiwara's house.

No matter what would happen later, he just wanted to go to Fujiwara's house now!

At the same time, the motivation to seal the one-eyed monster also increased.

He couldn't go to Fujiwara's house in danger!

...

At night

Takashi Natsume found a way to lure the one-eyed monster out and took it to the place where the seal was set.

When they arrived at the place, the one-eyed monster also clearly recognized it. The face with only one eye and a mouth was hideous and terrifying.

"I wanted to love you well. Now it seems that I have to teach you a lesson, Natsume!"

The one-eyed monster pounced on Takashi Natsume, and suddenly its body fell down. It turned out that there was a pit under a piece of grass.

Takashi Natsume hurriedly covered the entrance of the hole with a lid with runes.

Wow!

The runes on the lid echoed with the seal in the hole, emitting a dazzling white light.

"Finally succeeded!"

Takashi Natsume was happy.

The next second, his expression froze on his face, and a springy force emanated from the manhole cover, causing Takashi Natsume to fly into the air.

Below, there was a shorter slope.

"Really? Are you picking on us?"

A woman complained in the hospital corridor.

"Mom..."

The woman's son tried to comfort her.

"Are you causing them trouble again?"

On the hospital bed, Takashi Natsume smiled helplessly.

"I can't go back to them anymore."

But this time, he was not uneasy about the upcoming change of residence, because...

Takashi Natsume slowly closed his eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, a gentle voice sounded from his ears.

"Oh, Takashi-kun is asleep."

"Shh, be quiet and don't wake him up."

"Yes."

Takashi Natsume opened his eyes, and the two faces he was expecting came into view.

"Aunt Fujiwara? Uncle Fujiwara?"

Is he dreaming?

The Fujiwara couple were both startled.

Fujiwara Shigeru half complained: "Look, you've been woken up."

Fujiwara Toko was a little dissatisfied, "Didn't you speak too?"

The two complained to each other for a few words. Although they were complaints, the intimacy and warmth revealed in them made Natsume Takashi's lips turn up.

At this moment, Fujiwara Shigeru said to him:

"Takashi-kun, if you are unhappy, you can go out at any time. But for you now, you need a place to calm your mind and cultivate your nature. My home can be said to be too quiet."

Fujiwara Shigeru first laughed at himself, and then looked at Natsume Takashi seriously:

"Come to our house."

Natsume Takashi pursed his lips, with a sour feeling in the corners of his eyes. Regardless of the pain in his body, he struggled to get up, which made the other two look worried.

"You can't get up"

"I want to go..."

Natsume Takashi said.

"I want to go to Aunt Fujiwara and Uncle Fujiwara's house, please, please..."

Tears flowed from his eyes, and Natsume Takashi reached out to wipe them away while making a sincere request.

Both the Fujiwara couple showed pleasant surprises on their faces, and hurriedly comforted the crying boy.

"It's so happy, so happy."

By the window, a figure looked at the warm scene in front of him, and disappeared in an instant.
