The matter of going back, apart from being asked by Fujinomiya Mimi just now, has not actually started to mention it with Miyauchi Lianhua and the Koshigaya sisters. The two weeks have been flat, but before I set off, I thought that the change was probably in the city. It becomes just an external environment like a natural landscape.

However, at this moment, in my hazy consciousness, it is dusk, the road is filled with the fragrance of vegetables from various households, and the house is always full of children laughing and talking, talking about novels, and delivering them to him continuously. The figure of a girl who came over with some vegetables and fruits...

This is how life should be...

Plain, but not ordinary.

"...Continue to look for it." Li Yan stood at a high place, looking at the village that had been treated well for two weeks in front of him, thinking silently, trying his best to repay the love of this group of children.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning illuminated the darkness. Suddenly, the woods were as bright as day, and a cold wind blew on him. Li Yan couldn't help but immediately lower his body as much as possible to avoid being caught in the sky above the woods. There may be lightning strikes.

However, it was this lightning bolt that caused Li Yan to lean down and look at the hillside of the forest, but at the shrine, he saw a petite and strange figure.Although it is not very clear to see, but from the pair of ball-shaped feet, it can be seen that it is not a human being...

More importantly, in Li Yan's eyes, he could see what the figure of that unknown shrine was playing with at the moment.

"..."

In the lightning bolts, Li Yan's complexion changed.

Why, he suddenly... remembered the short story "Little God" that he made up based on his dream...

At the same time, in Hitoyoshi City, Kumamoto Prefecture, hundreds of kilometers away, there is a building surrounded by mountains and forests. In the warm room, the cat teacher is lying on the cushion.

"It's so boring. It's almost September, and there are no novels to read. It's so boring..."

Teacher Cat was lying on the cushion, looking lazily at the contents of the third volume, and said.

"Ah, it's still about senior's novels, Mr. Cat, you still like senior's novels as always."

Takashi Natsume, who was tidying up the room, looked at Mr. Cat who was reading the novel over and over again after a while, and said with a gentle smile.

"Who told me that I like the novels he wrote, this guy's writing is a little more to my taste, and it's far from being good at writing." Teacher Cat snorted and said.

"...Is that so?" Natsume Takashi smiled lightly, naturally understanding the teacher's thoughts, and responded.

"Of course, this guy, who originally had time to improve his writing skills, was always making trouble everywhere, being dragged in by mirrors, and his identity was suddenly replaced. Maybe this time he will delay writing due to some troublesome things. The work of novels is really a writer who is not doing his job properly. I don't know, the guys like Sanxiao have also begun to understand that there is nothing to do, and it is boring without cultural consumption. "

The cat teacher turned a page and said in a slightly reproachful tone.

"..." Natsume Takashi listened quietly and said with a smile: "Teacher, don't you think that seniors are very similar to my lifestyle?"

"Same?" Teacher Cat raised his head and looked at it and asked.

"Yeah, my senior used to be the same as me, just a lonely person. However, after we grew up, we gradually began to change our lives, and there were more and more gentle friends around... Although we are not interested in the past of senior. , I've only heard some rumors, it's not easy at all to endure it... But, I know that senior is the kind of person who once fell in love and once fell in love, would not choose to leave."

Natsume Takashi looked at the rain outside the window and said with a smile: "So, I'm thinking that when the wind and rain pass and the sun shines on me, the future will definitely get better and better..."

"...You rarely say such optimistic words before." Teacher Cat looked at Natsume and said.

"Is that so..." Natsume Takashi was stunned for a moment, then asked in a low voice with a gentle smile.

However, there are still some differences between him and Li Yan. From the beginning to the end, Li Yan's life is based on the mundane, and in his words, most of his life is always dealing with monsters.

In the long drizzle, in a dark forest, the figure leaned down and carefully searched this world of dripping water...

"I believe that most of the time in life will be accompanied by loneliness, but the best way to face loneliness is to work hard to grow... Since I listened to the words of my predecessors, and lived with these words Now, I feel like I have to do something.”

Natsume Takashi said quietly.

A flash of lightning suddenly flashed in front of Natsume Takahiro and Teacher Cat, and they all looked out of the window in surprise. It seemed that the wind and rain outside was a little scary.

However, back at Asahi Hill's shrine, streaks of lightning illuminated the surrounding gray woods.

Wearing a white robe and a peculiar mask, a figure who seemed to be about the same height as Lianhua was playing with the horn-shaped object in his hand in such a thunderous weather.

"..." The figure sitting in the shrine looked at the dragon horn quietly, as if he was a little concerned, watching quietly.

"...Sorry, that item was dropped by my student."

Suddenly, from the depths of the woods, came a calm voice.

This petite figure, stunned for a moment, followed the sound and looked over.

In the black rainstorm, this figure in a raincoat slowly walked out of the woods, the pair of eyes staring at it in front of the rain, as cold as the rain, said.

【…】

The little figure sitting at the shrine looked at him quietly, without saying a word.

As a result, a person and an unknown existence confronted each other.

At this time, Li Yan realized a little bit. The reason why he couldn't find it was not because it was hard to find, but because the dragon horns that contained Connor's power were likely to attract some ghosts.

Li Yan was naturally wary of this monster whose origin was unknown, and was thinking of taking back Connor's precious dragon horn in a peaceful way, but he didn't know why.

[What a rude human being. 】

"?"

Suddenly, this petite masked monster reprimanded him. Although it didn't sound harsh at all, when Li Yan heard the voice, he felt an inexplicable thump in his heart.

[Let's not talk about whether what you said is true of human beings, this item was found by me, is your kid just planning to retrieve the lost item from the hands of the gods? ] ("I" is used to describe the place in Japan calls itself)

Li Yan was shocked when he heard that it claimed to be a god. In the rain, he stared at it blankly and asked, "...Excuse me, are you a monster, or something else?"

[I am the mountain god of this mountain, but human beings have forgotten my existence a long time ago, and now this shrine is somewhat abandoned. 】
