Chapter 13 Multitrack



The girl ran over hurriedly and pulled Natsume away.

Natsume was dragged and ran. He could see that the girl thought the monster was going to hurt him, so she pulled him away. He wanted to explain, but seeing the girl's panic, he didn't say anything and just ran after her.

Only when they were far away from the monster with the loach beard did the girl kneel on the ground, panting heavily, and asked, "He didn't hurt you, did he?"

"No, he probably has no ill intentions." Natsume answered the girl's question first. Rather than hurting him, it would be more accurate to say that the loach-bearded monster was the one who was scared.

"But can you also see monsters? And...how do you know my name?" Natsume asked puzzledly.

"I'm Toru Tsuchi, in the same grade as you, and a student in Class 5." Toru Tsuchi didn't expect that Natsume didn't know her at all, and didn't even have any impression of her.

She could definitely be called a cute girl, and quite popular in school, but...

"Sorry, I don't usually pay much attention..." Natsume didn't know how to explain why he didn't pay much attention to other classes.

Toru Toru didn't need Natsume to explain. She didn't care much about it, but she noticed the "also" in Natsume's previous words to her, "Can you see monsters too?"

"You can really see monsters!" Duojitou has been observing Natsume for a long time. Ever since she saw him for the first time when he transferred to the school, she felt that Natsume might have something to do with monsters.

Because Natsume really doesn't look like a human.

Natsume squatted next to her and asked, "Can you do that too?"

Duojitou hesitated for a moment and handed a folded paper to Natsume: "I can't, but I can use this, the formation passed down by my grandfather. If the monster stands on the formation, I can see it."

Natsume looked at the formation with an eye in the middle. He couldn't figure out what it was like. He wasn't good at formations. He looked at Duogui, who still had a frightened expression, and returned the formation to her. "It's better to draw less of this formation. Not all monsters like to be seen. There are many monsters that use being seen as a condition for attacking. You could be in danger."

"I'm in danger. I'm sorry, Natsume." Duoji slowly told her experience.

She found this formation from the things left by her grandfather. When she was drawing it in the yard, monsters would occasionally pass by. She found it novel and influenced by her grandfather, she became very interested in monsters. She often drew formations in the yard and secretly observed the monsters.

As a result, one day an evil monster entered her house and wanted to play hide-and-seek with her. The time limit was 365 days. If she lost, the monster would not only eat her, but also recall her memory and eat the last thirteen people she called out.

"I have been avoiding calling other people's names since then, but sometimes I still call them out unconsciously. I will find a way to win. I'm sorry, but I still hope you can help me." Duogui felt extremely guilty when she thought about the danger she brought to Natsume, but the most important thing now was to catch the monster.

Natsume looked at Duoji and checked his body with magic, and found that he was indeed cursed.

Natsume's best magic is actually purification and perception. He is not very good at fighting, and has basically no understanding of formations and curses. He used a purification magic, but the curse on his body did not disappear. As expected, he still needs to find the monster's real body.

"Don't worry too much, it will be resolved soon." Natsume comforted Duoji.

Duogui slowly calmed down. She looked at Natsume's confident expression and suddenly felt relieved: "Really?"

"Of course, it will be quick." Natsume comforted Duoji.

It was really quick. Duogui looked at Natsume, made a hand sign, and said, "Withered flowers, follow the vines, trace the source, follow the veins of the curse, the vines grow, and guide me."

Looking at the pink and purple light emitting from the chest, a nameless but beautiful flower gradually bloomed from the curse on the chest, and roots spread along the flower.

"Let's go." Natsume said to Duogui.

"Oh, oh, okay." I didn't expect multi-tracking to be so simple.

Natsume, so awesome.

Following the root system, the two came to a cave. Natsume took a look at the environment of the cave and said to Duogui, "You wait outside, I'll go in."

"No, let's go together!" Duogui was very determined. She couldn't let Natsume face the danger alone.

"Don't trust others so much." Natsume was embarrassed to tell Duogui directly that he was a member of the opposite sex and Duogui should be wary, so he could only remind Duogui implicitly.

Seeing that Duogui hadn't reacted yet, Xia Mu wanted to sigh: "The content of the game is that Duogui must see him, so Duogui draws the formation outside and I lure the monster out. Then you win and we can be safe."

Duogui then realized that it was Natsume who could see the monster directly, not her. She nodded in agreement: "I'm outside. If there is any danger, call me and I will go in and save you immediately."

"Then the two of us will stuff the monster's teeth together, causing his gums to become infected and die in pain." Natsume made a joke to make Duogui relax a little.

Multitrack: ...

"Pfft! Don't say such things!"

Natsume smiled and said, "Okay, don't worry. Although I'm not very good at fighting, I have no problem running away."

After he finished speaking, he approached the dark and damp cave. Natsume followed the roots of the flowers and saw a monster in the deepest part of the cave with lime-colored skin, three heads and a body, but each head was as big as a person.

"You are the monster who made that unfair bet with Duoji. She just saw you. Why did you do this?" Natsume asked.
