Chapter 599 April 1st
"Why do you say the bad taste has been swallowed up?"
Natsume put his hands in his trouser pockets, and the lingering taste in his mouth made him still immersed in the aftertaste.
"Remember what I just said? The power of longing is very powerful and twisted."
The orange cat lazily lay on the boy's head, "You're afraid of that centipede, right? It became like that because it swallowed too much bad taste."
"for…"
Natsume Shiki didn't react for a while, but he soon understood the relationship.
The old woman who made takoyaki probably missed her husband too much, and the bond between the two parties caused the soul that should have become a Buddha to stay in this world in another way.
It instinctively swallows the bad taste in takoyaki every day, leaving only the most delicious things. Over time, its body becomes deformed.
Is that so...
After figuring everything out, Natsume Shiki was shocked at first, and then he had strong doubts, "Who is Aunt Toko, the senior of my friend's family? Why does he know so much? Besides, I feel that he should also be able to see To the monster.”
“Not a should, but a yes.”
The orange cat licked its paws with lingering fear, "Do you know why I said he is dangerous?"
"Why?"
"Because when we met, my instinct told me that if I attack this guy, he will die very ugly."
"ah?"
"Don't believe it. If I guess correctly, he may be the legendary child of God."
"It's a bit exaggerated, Mr. Cat. He's obviously just a high school student one year older than me."
"Believe it or not, it's up to you. Anyway, he doesn't look like a very bad guy. Maybe you will ask him for help in the future. Let's build a good relationship if you have the chance."
"This is not good, approaching with a purpose..."
"There's nothing wrong with him. Don't forget that he is an alien just like you. He may be even more isolated and lonely than you."
Lonely…
This word brought up many bad memories in Natsume Shiki's mind.
He has been a monster since childhood.
And what kind of life should Amber, who is also an outlier, have experienced?
I heard from Aunt Tazi that the other party seemed to be staying at a relative's house just like me.
Maybe, we can really become friends?
the other side.
Amber walked aimlessly on the street. At this time, he should be at home reading comics and playing video games.
But Yuan Banqing's abnormality made him give up this idea.
The woman did things as she thought of them, and was too lazy to follow them.
Feeling the warmth of the sun shining on her body, Amber closed her eyes comfortably. The scenery in Kumamoto County is very beautiful. Because it is close to the mountains and forests, you can often see some wild animals.
This kind of harmonious coexistence between man and nature is much more interesting than dealing with those hypocritical guys.
Amber was walking when she suddenly felt something strange. On the grass that was supposed to be empty, a strange house appeared at some point.
"interesting…"
He closed his eyes and felt the fluctuations of energy, which might seem very powerful to others, but to him, they were just ripples on a calm lake.
With curiosity, Amber walked in through the front door. However, as soon as she stepped into the courtyard, she saw the door being pushed open from the inside, and then two girls in very strange costumes came out.
"He is the master's guest!"
"He is the master's guest!"
"Hehehehe..."
With extremely bright smiles, they said, "Please come in with us."
Amber looked at the room and immediately stepped in without any hesitation.
The interior is decorated in a very traditional Japanese style, and the wooden boards on both sides of the aisle are full of traces of time.
They kept walking until the two girls stopped in front of the innermost door.
They grasped both sides in perfect agreement, and then slowly pulled apart.
Under Amber's gaze, a beautiful woman with a princess haircut was lying lazily on the tatami, holding a cigarette in her hand. As her red lips opened slightly, a faint smoke was exhaled. come out.
"You...have no wishes."
Ichihara Yuko looked at Amber, with a little doubt in her brown eyes, but she soon became relieved, "Any encounter is the beginning of a fate, no matter how short the time is, it will not affect its own destiny." significance.
So, my guest, do you need anything? "
"need?"
Amber looked around and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. He felt that he was quite lucky and the world was more interesting than he imagined.
"The undead that no longer exist, but stay in this world because of obsession. Your time has stopped, but you are here to sell hope to others. It is really interesting."
Amber looked at the woman carefully, "Want to seek relief?"
"guest…"
Ichihara Yuko was really surprised this time. She sat up and her expression became serious, "A child of the gods... If you are a guest, you can indeed help me."
"Why should I help you?"
Amber smiled slightly, "If it disappears, there will be nothing."
"Since the guest is unwilling to help me and has no other requirements, please leave."
When Ichihara Yuko heard what he said, she immediately returned to her previous appearance.
"Too decisive, miss."
Amber said as she reached out to take the teacup from the girl beside her, "Like you said, our meeting is the beginning of fate, this is an inevitable fact."
"What do you want?"
Ichihara Yuko rubbed her forehead helplessly.
"I can give you the relief you need, and I can even do better."
Amber looked around, "It just so happens that I am also very interested in this place. How about this, this shop will belong to me in the future, you work for me, and when the time is right, I will help you get rid of the curse."
"It sounds absurd..."
Ichihara Yuko's face was full of distrust.
"Then let you feel it."
Amber stretched out a finger and stroked it across her face. Wherever the fingertips touched, a faint black color appeared on the skin, "Do you feel it? This kind of thing is just a piece of cake for me."
After saying that, he retracted his finger, and Ichihara Yuko's face returned to normal.
"Time..."
Her expression became a little empty, "Then from now on... you are my boss."
"Hahaha."
Amber laughed happily, "Continue what you usually do, I will come to play often."
"You don't need those who are exchanged..."
Ichihara Yuko said in astonishment: "That is very precious quality."
Everything in this world is made up of quality, and by absorbing other people's quality, you can improve your life level.
All the means she has now are obtained by exchanging these.
"No need."
Amber drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, "Besides, I am not the child of any god, because I am much stronger than them."
What an arrogant man...
Ichihara Yuko narrowed her eyes and said secretly in her heart.
