As long as it's not something evil, that's fine.

Later on, Shizuka will probably come looking for her.

She didn't try to hide her whereabouts or anything like that.

But the sun is so warm and comfortable, and the sound of leaves rustling is so soothing. Archery is so tiring...

Ah, I'm sleepy.

"The Book of Friends... The Book of Friends... Give it to me, the Book of Friends!"

The tall, ugly monster, its face contorted with greed, was frantically chasing a chestnut-haired boy down the street, shouting incoherently.

The Book of Friends, which can summon many yokai, is so tempting that even many yokai want to become the ultimate yokai.

Ordinary people cannot see monsters; at most, they can feel a cold wind blowing through their bodies when a monster passes through them.

However, ordinary people can see and touch the panicked human teenagers.

Having spiritual power is definitely not a good thing for ordinary people.

This means endless trouble.

The boy had to dodge the crowd blocking his way while also shaking off the monsters behind him.

Despite the low temperatures of early spring, sweat continued to seep from his forehead.

What bad luck! I ran into them just as I stepped out the door.

Unfortunately, his cat teacher wasn't around...

Shrine, shrine, if I can run to the shrine I can escape this disaster.

I think I saw a shrine in this area last time I was here.

A fork in the road lay before us.

Left or right?

Natsume ultimately chose to trust his memories and opted for the path on the left.

The number of people around gradually decreased, so there was no need to bother hiding anymore.

Being chased by monsters for a long time gave Natsume good physical strength, but running at full speed for a long time still left him somewhat exhausted.

We're almost there!

Natsume gritted his teeth and sped up.

"I've got you! Natsume... Reiko!"

Just as he was about to run into the shrine, a monster's large hand attacked from behind, gripping his neck tightly and slamming him against a tree.

Cough cough, this scene seems a bit familiar...

It seems like the last time I met Nyanko-sensei, it was in a similar situation?

Who will I run into this time...?

The tree swayed twice due to the impact.

"ah!"

The bird, who was half asleep, was suddenly shaken awake.

"Who's so rude!"

She poked her head out angrily, and then met the monster's gaze with its one eye.

The faint sounds of humans reached my ears.

Feiniao's face immediately darkened.

She drew a sword from the void and attacked the one-eyed monster the instant she jumped down.

The one-eyed monster sensed a dangerous aura.

Instinct made it decisively release the boy in its grasp and turn to escape.

As long as the green hills remain, there's nothing to fear!

The sword was swung out, forming a beam of light that struck the monster's back directly.

The power of purification caused the filthy monster to feel an overwhelming pain.

Let it begin from the center of your body, gradually transforming into spiritual energy, and disappearing into the world.

Although Asuka seems to have been on the opposite side of yokai for over a thousand years, she does not hate yokai.

She supported Seimei's statement about "coexistence between humans and demons".

After a thousand years of accumulation, the power of the bird is less about destruction and more about purification.

But for evil people and demons, purification is tantamount to destruction.

She doesn't intentionally save anyone, but if something happens in front of her, she won't let any innocent life be lost.

After being put down by the yokai, Natsume leaned against the tree trunk and coughed.

"Natsume-kun." A clear and pleasant voice came from above, "It's nice to see you again."

"However, this does not seem to be a pleasant encounter."

No, if he hadn't met Mononobe-san, he would probably be suffocating by now.

Although Natsume was thinking this, his throat, which had just been damaged, was unable to produce any sound.

"Wait here for me, I'll go to the vending machine and buy you a bottle of water."

I wanted to say no, but my dry throat wouldn't cooperate.

After the bird moved so fast that it could almost "disappear" from its spot, Madara, having broken the seal, instantly appeared beside Natsume.
