Zongman: My Brother-in-Law is the Tyrant

The next day, after finishing his training at the Jingu family, Natsume Takashi was on his way back to "home" when he met the lady he had met yesterday.

Fujiwara Touko was standing at the corner, as if she was waiting for Natsume Takashi.

"Natsume-kun, I'm so sorry for calling you out of the blue yesterday."

Natsume Takashi thought about the other party's introduction yesterday, "Um, you are Ms. Fujiwara..."

Fujiwara Toko smiled and said, "I've thought about it carefully, and I've decided to let you know our wishes.

If you're willing, would you like to come to our house?"

When Natsume Takashi heard what Fujiwara Torako said, he was obviously shocked.

Fujiwara Toko continued, "Our home is much more rural than here. My husband and I live here. Although it is old, the house is very spacious. However, we don't have children, so it is too spacious for us.

Recently, I heard about your story, Takashi. Of course, you don't have to force yourself, everything depends on your decision.

But if you are willing to come over, our house will definitely become more lively.

I will visit with my husband next time, so please think about it carefully, please."

Facing Fujiwara Torako's gentle and serious eyes, Natsume Takashi's feelings were indescribable.

……

"Should I go over there?"

Natsume Takashi was walking alone on the street, still thinking about Fujiwara Touko's proposal just now.

"She wanted me to go over there. Others took me in out of necessity. She also wanted to consider my opinion."

Such a serious treatment made Natsume Takashi's heart moved, but...

"She doesn't know me."

He didn't want to see an expression of disappointment or fear on her face because of her own "weirdness".

Sitting on the swing in the park, Natsume Takashi's heart kept swinging.

At this time, the one-eyed monster that has been bothering them recently suddenly appears.

"Natsume, come with me."

Natsume Takashi was so frightened that he fell off the swing and sat down on the ground.

The one-eyed monster with long white hair stared at Natsume, and a strange smile appeared on its huge mouth:

"Come with me, Natsume. No one wants you anyway, right?"

This lonely soul...ah~what a delicious scent!

It would be fun to keep a human like this.

No one wants it, no one wants it...

"No way!" Natsume Takashi shouted.

If it were in the past, Natsume Takashi might have agreed with the youkai, but now...

Jingu-san, Ieiri-san, Riki-nee, and...

The figure of Fujiwara Touko appeared in Natsume Takashi's mind.

"What's going on?" The monster's face suddenly became more terrifying.

"What happened to your soul? Why did it change?!"

This soul is no longer alone...

"That's too much! You should be alone! No, I must make you alone again!"

The one-eyed monster was a little crazy, and Natsume Takashi became even more frightened when he saw this, but the monster's next words gave him courage.

"Natsume must be alone! Yes! As long as I kill the people around you, you will be alone again! I can get you, Natsume!"

"Stop kidding me, asshole!"

A thread in Natsume Takashi's brain suddenly broke.

Kill the people around you?

"I will never allow such a thing!"

Natsume Takashi recalled the method taught by Jingu Tsukasa, mobilized the demonic power and gathered it into his fist, then punched the one-eyed monster hard.

"it hurts!"

The one-eyed monster groaned in pain.

While the other person was falling to the ground, Natsume Takashi took the opportunity to run away.

No, I must find a way to get rid of the monster!

In the next few days, perhaps because of the effect of Jingu Tsukasa's words, or perhaps for other reasons, Natsume Takashi decided to use his own method to get rid of the one-eyed monster.

So he disguised himself and mingled with the surrounding monsters, constantly asking about the one-eyed monster's weaknesses or ways to deal with it.

One day, Natsume Takashi walked towards "home" with a few leaves on his head, feeling relaxed.

Today, his human identity was exposed among the monsters, but he also learned the method to seal the one-eyed monster.

"This is?"

When he walked downstairs to the apartment building, he saw Fujiwara Toru and a man walking out of the apartment building side by side.

"Could it be that……"

Thinking of a possibility, Natsume Takashi ran quickly into the apartment building.

Back inside the house, looking at the obvious signs of having just entertained guests, Natsume Takashi, who was breathing heavily, smiled.

"They actually came..."

At this moment, he realized that he wanted to go, to Fujiwara's house.

No matter what happens next, he just wants to go to Fujiwara's house now!

At the same time, the motivation to seal the one-eyed monster also increases.

He couldn't go to the Fujiwara family in danger!

……

night

Natsume Takashi found a way to lure out the one-eyed monster and took it to the place where the seal was set.

When they got there, the one-eyed monster also recognized them. His face, which had only one eye and a mouth, looked ferocious and terrifying.

"I wanted to love you well. But now it seems I have to teach you a lesson, Natsume!"

The one-eyed monster pounced towards Natsume Takashi, and suddenly its body fell down. It turned out that there was a pit under the grass.

Natsume Takashi hurriedly covered the entrance of the cave with the lid with runes on it.

Wow!

The runes on the lid echoed the seal in the hole, emitting a dazzling white light.

"Finally it worked!"

Natsume Takashi's face lit up with joy.

The next second, his expression froze on his face, and an elastic force emanated from the manhole cover, causing Natsume Takashi to fly into the air.

Below is a shorter slope.

……

"Really? Are you trying to pick a fight with us?"

A woman complained in the hospital corridor.

"Mother……"

The woman's son tried to comfort her.

"Are you causing them trouble again?"

On the hospital bed, Natsume Takashi smiled helplessly.

“I can’t go back to them anymore.”

But this time, he was not upset about the upcoming change of residence, because...

Natsume Takashi slowly closed his eyes.

I don’t know how long it took, but a gentle voice sounded beside my ears.

"Oh, Takashi-kun fell asleep."

"Shh, be quiet and don't wake him up."

"Yes."

Natsume Takashi opened his eyes and saw the two faces he had been expecting.

"Aunt Fujiwara? Uncle Fujiwara?"

Are you dreaming?

The Fujiwara couple were both shocked.

Fujiwara Shige half complained: "Look, I got woken up."

Fujiwara Touko was a little dissatisfied, "Didn't you speak too?"

The two of them complained to each other, and even though it was just complaints, the intimacy and warmth revealed in them made Natsume Takashi's lips curl up.

At this time, Fujiwara Shigeru said to him:

"Kashi-kun, if anything goes wrong, you can always go on a long journey. But for you now, you need a place to calm your mind and relax. My home is too quiet."

Fujiwara Shige first laughed at himself, then looked at Natsume Takashi seriously:

"Come to our house."

Natsume Takashi pursed his lips, feeling a soreness in the corners of his eyes. He ignored the pain in his body and struggled to get up, which made the other two look worried.

“You can’t get up”

"I wanna go……"

Natsume Takashi said.

"I want to go to Aunt Fujiwara and Uncle Fujiwara's house, please, please..."

Tears welled up in his eyes, and Natsume Takashi reached out to wipe them away while making a sincere request.

The Fujiwara couple showed surprise on their faces and hurried to comfort the crying boy.

"It's really delightful, really delightful."

By the window, a figure looked at the warm scene in front of him, and disappeared in an instant.
