"Eh, is that so?" Natsume was shocked.
Hai watched them laughing and laughed too: "I want some snacks."
Natsume also felt that this was not right: "Okay, let's forget it. Don't follow the others who said that."
They went to buy snacks together and played games with Kai. Tanuma and Taji smiled as they watched Natsume and Kai having so much fun, the two little kids.
Before leaving, Natsume gave Hai a flower.
Hai looked at the cyan flower and smiled, "So beautiful, what's its name?"
"It's called: Trust." Natsume smiled. This flower was condensed by his energy, and people who cannot see monsters cannot see it.
He also confirmed that the child could really see, so the one who put the customs into the box might also be a monster.
Thinking of this, Natsume returned to the villa and found something he had overlooked last time. These sealed coffins also had formations and talismans. He used magic to find the owner of the power...
Natsume flew over and saw the owner of that power: "Mr. Natori——"
Natori Zhoujie was so frightened that he almost jumped up: "Natsume! Why are you here!"
"I also want to ask you, why does Mr. Natori want to go against the sea?"
"Hai, you mean he... he is a monster. The more a monster disguises itself as a human, the stronger its power is. I have received a commission to destroy him." Natori Zhoujie looked at Natsume's expression and told Natsume the truth.
For some reason, he didn't want to lie to Natsume anymore. When Natsume's gentleness and patience were worn away bit by bit, he didn't dare to think about what would happen next.
Seeing that Natsume still didn't understand why he attacked the sea, Natori Shuichi smiled helplessly. As expected, the reason that those who are not of the same race must have different hearts could not convince Natsume at all.
"The reason why that place is prone to attracting monsters is that evil spirits once wreaked havoc there, but later those evil spirits were sealed in a well. In order to break free from the seal, the evil spirits wanted to attract monsters to break the seal."
"So the sea is the monster that was attracted here. I released the sea, and I will be responsible. If he wants to break the seal, I will stop him. Even if he breaks the seal, I will seal the evil spirit again. So - I can't bear to see Mr. Natori attack the sea!" Natsume admitted that he was biased, but he could feel the mood that the sea conveyed to him.
Loneliness, loneliness...
So there is no option to seal the sea.
Natsume is not a weak child. He has great strength and a firm heart. However, Natori sighed: "Don't believe the monster's words too much."
"You can't trust humans too much." Natsume didn't like this topic.
Natori Zhoujie knew that Natsume was angry again. He had a childish temper and got angry easily. "Hey, then I'll leave it to Natsume. I can just take a break."
Natsume was coaxed into a good mood again: "Are you tired? Being an adult is not easy. Then, Mr. Natori, take a good rest."
Looking at Natsume running away, Natori complained to Hiiragi on Monday: "You are so heartless. You can't even care about me a little more."
Hiiragi glanced at Natori and said, "Or, you should take fewer missions from Natsume." She was very afraid that because of the demon-hunting work, Natsume and Natori would completely break up on Monday.
"Well, I really want to take advantage of the gaps in my demon-hunting work to see Natsume." He also hopes that he can appear in time when Natsume is harmed by monsters or humans.
Natsume didn't know about what Hiiragi and Natori said on Monday, but he and Umi gradually became familiar with each other. Umi would come to Natsume's school to wait for them after school. Natsume and the others didn't find Umi annoying, but gently incorporated taking care of Umi into their lives.
"I like you and I will protect you!" Hai said to Natsume and the others very firmly.
Natsume and the others looked at each other and finally agreed solemnly: "Although I hope we won't encounter any danger, thank you Hai."
After saying this, they were attacked by a monster that afternoon. It was a monster with a white mask and horns. Natsume subconsciously pressed Hai into his arms to prevent him from seeing this scene: "Feng! Send him back!"
Natsume left his breath on the monster, and planned to follow the breath later and seal the well again. By then, he guaranteed that the evil spirit inside would not be able to lure the monster, and even the wind would not be able to get in.
"Natsume!" Hai looked at Natsume in surprise.
"Hmm?" Natsume waited for Hai's next words, but Hai said nothing. It was not until Duogui and the others left that Hai took Natsume's hand and said:
"Natsume and I are the same, too lonely, so we came to the human's place, come back with me, we will be together, so we won't be lonely!"
The seal of the sea was released, and Natsume realized that the breath of the sea was not human.
"Come back with me!"
"I am a human. Although I can see monsters and have great power, I am still a human. The power that you feel that is not like that of a human comes from my guardian fairy. It is the power she left behind to protect me." Natsume used his strength to echo the power of the sea.
Hai sensed it carefully and found that it was indeed the case. The thing in front of him belonged to humans.
Natsume ruffled Umi's hair and said, "I'm a human. Can I still be Umi's friend?"
"We are friends, but why... I thought Natsume would be the same kind of person." Hai's mood has been up and down and he now feels a little powerless.
"My grandmother and I both have many monster friends. I think that feelings are the standard for friendship, not race. I like the sea very much and I want to be friends with the sea. Where is the sea?"
"Me too." Hai was held in Natsume's arms defenselessly, and a steady heartbeat could be heard from his fragile chest.
It's the truth.
Hai finally hugs Natsume back.
