Before, Lu Shen had mentioned the monster behind him and gave a picture. It was a monster that looked like an upright dolphin with big eyes and a sausage mouth, and there was a "参" character on its body.
At that time, Natsume and Madara laughed a lot, and then Natsume asked Feng to track the monster, and Feng would convey the information he wanted to know.
"I'm not sure, after all..." The picture is a little too abstract.
"Then let's go and take a look!" The Goddess of Dew did not feel sad at all about her impending death, and even accepted it with pleasure.
Natsume responded softly and said nothing more.
"Lord Natsume, have I caused you any trouble?" asked Lu Shen, looking at Natsume.
Originally, he should have died with the last person who believed in him, but now he rashly found Natsume, had a connection with him, and then died like this...
Ah, it seems like this would be very sad for Natsume-sama.
"No, if that is the happiness you choose, I will accept it. Let's go and find the monster behind." Natsume picked up the Dew God and put it on his shoulder.
Seeing the iron-gray, hairless monster with an irregular spherical head, no eyeballs but only black eye sockets, and wearing a black kimono, Natsume and Madara felt very complicated when they heard the God of Dew say that he had found it...
The only similarity between this and your drawing is the character “参” (Shen) on it!
When the monster saw Natsume, it pounced on him. Natsume dodged lightly, let the wind lift him up, and stood in the air looking at the monster.
He thought back to when Hei Xiangling taught him how to use magic: "Natsume, you are born with power. This power has a strong sense of perception. If you combine this power with magic, it will be very powerful."
"Very powerful?" Natsume didn't quite understand how powerful it could be.
"Wherever the wind blows, it is your eyes and ears, even the human heart."
Natsume stretched out his hand, and the breeze blew over the monster. He also saw the monster's memory. He was a monster that would sneak along the shade of the trees to the villagers' homes to eat leftovers. In return, he would wash the cups, bowls and dishes in the villagers' homes.
Natsume saw his grandmother in the memory of the monster "Zhuo", a beautiful grandmother who seemed to be glowing in the sun.
It seems that the longer one lives, the more stubborn one becomes. Zhuo was certain of his fate, so he waited and waited persistently...
Until it turns into resentment.
In comparison, humans seem to be particularly prone to falling in love with someone else, but the resentment caused by their obsession is relatively less.
"Those who protect me, reveal your name. Zhuo, Lu Shen, I will return your name to you." Natsume tore off the two pages of paper that were stuck together, folded them, held them between his lips, and exhaled -
Seeing the ink return to their eyebrows, Zhuo was about to return to where he came from. Before he disappeared, Natsume put the peach that the old lady gave him into Zhuo's palm.
What follows is the memory of Lu Shen. In the memory, the grandmother persuaded Lu Shen, who was still in adult size, to leave, but was rejected.
Lu Shen said: "Once you receive love, once you give love, you will never forget it."
Natsume's eyelashes fluttered.
Madara jumped onto Natsume's shoulders and pushed him sideways: "Ah, my little brother is so useful that it makes me, a bodyguard, look incompetent."
"No, I'm very grateful that the teacher can stay with me." Natsume hugged Madara in his arms and rubbed his head.
Although he said that he would remain strong after Xiangling left, he was indeed inevitably lonely. Although Madara's arrival could not completely fill that loneliness, it was a different existence for Natsume.
After returning the name this time, Natsume returned to his daily life.
He would occasionally come to see the Goddess of Dew, and sometimes he would meet the old lady, and he would also hear the story of the old lady and the Goddess of Dew.
Summer worship, the gods under the swaying shadows of the trees and the girls who are worshipping.
"I heard the Goddess of Dew say, 'What a nice day today,' and I almost responded to her by saying, 'That's right,' isn't it magical?" Grandma Hanako said, holding her face as she thought of that afternoon.
"Yes, it's amazing." Natsume said with a smile.
This time when we went to see the Dew God, he had become even smaller. Grandma Hanako had been ill for a long time and was unable to come and worship him.
"I come to worship you and be your believer..." Natsume said that he respected their ideas but he still didn't want the God of Dew to disappear. He wanted to keep the God of Dew.
"No, Natsume-sama is a friend." Lu Shen refused again.
The Dew God became transparent, but he smiled. He thought of Hanako in his mind, his last believer. He could only look at her before, but now, it seemed that he could finally touch her.
In the end, Natsume watched one of his friends leave.
"Teacher, when your grandmother passed away, did you ever think of calling her friends to her side?" Natsume asked.
"Reiko, I don't know. That guy is always hard to guess." Madara did not give a definite answer.
"I don't think so, because it would be sad to see a friend leave. Monsters are not very sensitive to the passage of time. As long as they don't see grandma die with their own eyes, grandma will still live in their hearts." Natsume kowtowed to the dew god as a farewell to his friend.
After that, whenever Natsume passed by the shrine of Rokugami again, he would put some food there. Madara said that Natsume was wasting his effort, but Natsume thought, what if there were other monsters living in this shrine?
Or it would be nice if it was eaten by monsters like Hishion or Zhuo.
Life was still very peaceful after that. During this period, he helped Nishimura get rid of the monster that possessed him. It seemed that because of his brother's academic problems, his parents ignored Nishimura, which made him feel a little twisted, and as a result, he offended a monster that liked to attack people with fragile minds.
