I went out with Nishimura Kitamoto a few times, and went to Yahara twice at the appointment of Tanuma, and the summer vacation passed quickly like this.

When Natsume was leaving school, he met someone he didn't really want to see.At first, he didn't know who was sitting in the vehicle in front of him, until the window was rolled down, and the face of Di Chang Jingsi's half-smile appeared in front of his eyes.

During the time when Yato was trapped in the place of delusion and disappeared, Natsume had gone to look for Shizuka several times, but he couldn't see him.He had an intuition that this matter had something to do with the field, but since the non-arrogance had disappeared, it was pointless to pursue these further.

"Natsume Takashi, can I talk to you?"

Natsume frowned slightly. He and Shiba Jingji had completely different views and attitudes towards monsters. The limited number of dealings with him was not a good memory.

Dechang asked, "Don't want to?"

The wind lifted the hair on his forehead, and Natsume saw the white spell covering his right eye clearly.

"Okay." He still couldn't say no.

There were more and more people after school, Natsume opened the car door and got in.

The chosen place for chatting is a very elegant coffee shop, with soothing and elegant music playing in the shop, and exquisite medieval oil paintings hanging on the walls.

Natsume sat down across the field and put her backpack on the seat next to her.

He didn't want to beat around the bush, so he said politely: "Mr. Chang, please speak directly if you have anything to say."

Dechang lowered his head and stirred the coffee in the cup, looked up at Natsume, "Buxuan has disappeared."

"Yes." Natsume replied, "This should not be difficult news for the Chang family."

The corner of Zhang Jingsi's mouth raised, "You seem to be hostile to me?"

Without waiting for Natsume to answer, he said to himself again: "Why? Is it because the concept of dealing with monsters is different from that of the Deba family? Or is it because of... Yato God?"

Natsume didn't hide it, and asked frankly: "Did you deliberately lure Yato to the banquet that day? Let him fall into the trap of killing and finally falling into the trap of not being arrogant. Although it is meaningless to discuss these now, you owe Yato An apology."

"You are really protecting Yato." Jingji Chang took a sip of his coffee, sat up straight and looked at Natsume, "For the rest of the conversation, it seems that I need to explain to you first."

"The Chang family once made an agreement with the Immortal God. We looked for powerful monsters for him to help him gain enough power to return to the god position, and he needed the blessing of the Chang family to help us resist monsters that we couldn't deal with."

Zhang Jingsi raised his hand and lightly touched the white charm covering his right eye.

Natsume's heart skipped a beat, and he remembered some rumors related to the Chang family that he had heard.

He asked: "So Yato is also the target of your eyes? Are those shikigami who were beheaded by Yato at the banquet?"

"Yes," Dechang replied simply, "At first, we were worried about how long it would take for the gods to gain so much power, but Ye Fighting God suddenly appeared in this area. The power of a god, and he is still good at fighting If you have such a good shortcut, of course you have to take it."

Resisting the urge to slam the table and leave, Natsume asked as calmly as possible: "Because of the appearance of Yato, the shikigami who were possessed by the demon of the other shore lost their use value, right?"

"No," Dechang said, "The value of their use is to make Ye Fighting God fall into the desire to kill."

Seeing Natsume's unkind expression, Yuzai chuckled, "Originally everything was planned, but there is something wrong with Buyushen himself. No matter if it's a monster or a god, no amount of power can stop him from falling."

Natsume understood that it was an ailment, and he remembered that the horrible gray-black spots had spread to his face when Fujushen disappeared.

He couldn't accept the fact that he used so many monsters and shikigami to death in such an understatement, and even some humans were killed by shikigami.

These are all life.

Natsume looked at Moba and asked, "So what is your purpose in looking for me?"

The three views are different, there is really no need to continue the chat, Natsume just wants to end this conversation as soon as possible.

Dechang said: "When the Buwangshen disappears, the agreement will naturally be voided."

An absurd idea flashed in Natsume's mind, he stared at the field, and heard the field say that without accident.

"The Chang clan wants to make an agreement with Ye Fighting God."

Natsume retorted without thinking: "How is it possible?"

Seeing Natsume's angry look, Toba smiled, "Why not?"

Natsume reached for the backpack, "You should go directly to Yato, it's useless to find me."

"Of course we have already looked for Night Fighting God."

Natsume was a little surprised, he didn't hear Yato mention it.

"But I was rejected," said the field, "so I came to you, hoping you can persuade Yatogami."

Natsume was a little amused, "I'm just an ordinary human being, and I happen to be able to see monsters. I don't even know that I'm so powerful that I can interfere with the decisions of the gods."

"If it's someone else, it's definitely not possible, but you can." The field smiled ambiguously, "Natsume Takashi, you have a unique personality charm, which is unique enough to make the gods listen to your words."

Natsume squeezed the shoulder strap of the backpack, he could hear the meaning of the field, the relationship with Yato was broken in such a face-to-face, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.

"You may wish to listen to the conditions we offer first." Said the field, "If Yato God is willing to make a contract to bless the field clan, we can build a shrine for him. As far as I know, Yato God is still A wandering god without a shrine, with the slight influence of the Deba clan, it is still possible to establish shrines for Yato God to accept worship in various places, presumably this is also the goal that Yato God has been working hard for."

A shrine... Yato has always wanted it. Natsume still remembers that when he first met Yato, Yato held his precious bottle and said that it contained all the funds he would build the shrine in the future.

Yato collects five yuan for helping humans realize a wish, but when will he be able to realize his own wish?

The conditions set out by the field are indeed a fatal temptation for the gods. Natsume asked: "Did you mention these conditions when you approached Yato?"

"Of course," said Toba, "but Yato refused with a reason I didn't expect."

Natsume asked, "Why?"

"Ask him yourself." The field smiled, "How about it, Natsume-san, can you consider it? This is a perfect shortcut for Yato God to quickly achieve the goal without any loss."

This is indeed the case.

Natsume stared down at the untouched coffee in front of him, should he persuade Yato to agree?

However, many of the Tianchang family and the demon-eliminating family like them can attack the kind monsters who do no evil, and they should use things that can be used. They have never regarded monsters as equal beings.

Yato is different from them.Yato will not harm innocent monsters, and is even willing to help monsters fulfill their wishes.

Yato is gentle.

Natsume made a decision in his heart, "Sorry, I can't agree."

Dechang didn't feel disappointed when he heard the answer, he smiled softly, "It's also the expected answer. Don't take it to heart, you can just treat me as if I have nothing to do to buy you a cup of coffee."

Natsume took a few sips of coffee and stood up with his backpack, "Mr. Dechang, thank you for your hospitality."

"You're welcome."

The field watched Natsume leave.

After dinner, Natsume sat in the room.

Natsume wanted to find Yato, but Yato probably wasn't at the shrine, and he and Yukine were so busy every day that they didn't touch the ground, so it was still difficult to find him.

Natsume turned the pages of the book, feeling a little dazed and sleepy, he yawned, and then heard a dull sound of something falling to the ground.

He was startled, stood up suddenly, and saw his body fell to the floor.

Natsume sighed, and raised his hand to touch the two horns of his head.

really.

Teacher Cat came in from the door with a pastry in his mouth and squinted his eyes. Seeing this, he was startled, "Going out of your body again?"

Natsume spread his hands helplessly: "Teacher, take care of me, I'll go out for a while."

Teacher Cat groaned twice: "If you want to find a cheap god, just tell me."

Natsume was embarrassed, and escaped through the window.

The state of the soul is still very convenient, and the speed of action is also very fast. Natsume is walking on the roof and electric wires, looking around to see if he can bump into Yato.

A beautiful snow-white bird flew towards him.

It was a rare color, Natsume was surprised when the god in black sportswear chased after him and caught the bird in his hand.

"Finally caught by me?"

The little white bird was obviously frightened, flapped its wings, and shook off a few snow-white feathers.

"Yato?" Natsume blinked, not expecting that the road to meeting the gods would be so smooth.

Yato stood on the road, stuffed the little white bird into his pocket, and reached out to Natsume, "Jump down and I'll follow you."

Xueyin rolled her eyes at him.

Natsume raised his finger and pointed at the horn on the top of his head, "What do you pick up, I'm in the state of a soul."

He jumped down, turned around in the air, and landed on the ground smoothly.

Yato handed the little white bird to Xueyin and sent him to return it to the owner.Xueyin gave him a look of disdain that sees through everything, waved at Natsume and walked away.

"I just wanted to take this opportunity to give her a hug." After Xueyin left, Yato whispered in Natsume's ear.

It's so honest...

They walked towards the street at night, which was quite a distance from Fujiwara's house. It was a quite lively street with bright lights and pedestrians coming and going.

"Today, Jingji Chang came looking for me," Natsume said, "Let me persuade you to make a contract with the Chang Clan."

Yato was angry: "He actually came to you alone?"

His tone focused on the word alone, which made Natsume think of the hot spring trip with Mr. Natori who was followed by Yato a few days ago.

Yato's emphasis is always skewed.

He continued: "I declined."

"Well," Yato replied, "I refused when he came looking for me."

Natsume asked him: "The field said that the reason you refused surprised him. What reason did you use?"

"Ah, it's nothing." Yato scratched his cheek, turned his head to look at the shop on the side of the road, obviously he didn't want to say anything.

Natsume stared at him.

"Ahhh," Yato couldn't stand Natsume's gaze, and confessed, "I said you don't like him."

"what?"

Yato repeated the scene word by word, "I refuse because Natsume doesn't like you."

"..." Natsume didn't expect Yato to use the same reason as the kid.

I don't want to play with you because the person I like doesn't like you.

There seems to be nothing wrong with it.

Natsume asked, "How do you know? Is it so obvious that I don't like the Ma clan?"

After Yato finished speaking, he was shy for a long time, and his whole body was half hung on Natsume, "Anyway, I just know."

Natsume pushed him, "On the street!"

Yato aggressively bit Natsume's ear: "Anyway, no one can see us."

A young mother walked by pushing a stroller.

The kid wearing the bear hat stared blankly at the two strange brothers, and burst into tears.

Natsume's cheeks were hot, and he kicked Yato three meters away.

.

"Going out for the weekend?"

When get out of class was over, Nishimura came to Natsume's desk and asked him.

Natsume shook his head: "Not this week, I have something to do."

Nishimura slapped him on the shoulder: "You've been busy for weeks! What are you doing behind our backs?"

Natsume smiled apologetically: "It's really something."

"Okay, okay," Kitamoto pushed Nishimura away, "Stop making trouble with Natsume, isn't it enough for me to accompany you?"

When he got home, Natsume took out the big box hidden in the closet, his hands were as weak as his, and the gift he had been making for a long time was about to be finished.

A mini shrine for Yato.

When Mr. Cat came in, he was patiently cutting off the excess with a small saw.

"You are too kind to the cheap god." Teacher Cat yawned on the quilt.

Natsume said with a guilty conscience: "After it's done, I'll buy the teacher a week's supply of Qitsujiya steamed buns."

When Aunt Toko asked about the commotion at the shrine, Natsume blamed everything on Mr. Kitty.

"It's almost there, hum."

Natsume smiled and continued to concentrate on the work at hand.

The weather has cooled down, and there have been two snowfalls in pieces.

At the dinner table, Aunt Tazi proposed to go to temples and shrines to pray for blessings on New Year's Eve.

Naturally, Natsume will not refuse, he enjoys the family life with Aunt Tako and Uncle Zi.

Is it New Years...it's a good time to give gifts.

Natsume greeted Yato in advance and told him to come at night.

There are a lot of people near the shrine, and the street vendors form a street. Taiyaki and udon noodles exude an attractive aroma in the cold night.

Natsume and Aunt Zi Toko visited the shrine and made a wish together, and lightly dropped coins into the merit box.

I have told Aunt Toko in advance that I have an appointment with Yato. After visiting the shrine, Aunt Toko and Uncle Zi told me to be safe before going back.

Natsume was standing outside the shrine waiting for Yato.

He was wearing a navy blue kimono, around his neck was a small stone given to him by Yato, and he was carrying a huge package in his hand.

There were too many people at the entrance of the shrine, so Natsume hid under a street lamp not far away where there were fewer people.

Something cool fell on his neck, and Natsume raised his head and let out a breath of hot air.

Snowing.

Not long after, Yato jumped off the roof.

Before the person landed, the voice came over first, "Sorry! I received a wish this afternoon and just completed it."

Natsume looked up at him.

Yato wasn't too cold either. He took off his tracksuit jacket and put it on his shoulders, and only wore a white short-sleeved shirt underneath.

He stared at Natsume three times and sighed, "It's beautiful."

Yato asked: "How about I change into a kimono too?"

Natsume sighed: "You rest."

Yato's eyes fell on the bag Natsume was carrying, "What is this?"

"new Year's gift."

"!!!" Yeto beat his chest and stamped his feet, "I didn't prepare a New Year's gift!"

"It's okay," Natsume raised his hand and patted his forehead.

His fingertips were cold, and Yato immediately calmed down.

Natsume said: "Find a place with few people and give it to you."

"Okay!" Yato pulled his hand and rubbed it.

They left the crowd and came to a small hill behind the shrine.

There are lights on the hillside, and there are very few people, only a few sporadic couples strolling hand in hand.

Natsume opened the bag and took out the gift that he had prepared for a long time.

An exquisite shrine nearly half the height of a person, with Yato's name engraved on it.

Yato squatted on the ground hugging the shrine for a long time without making a sound.

Natsume thought he was shy again at first, and waited for a while with the corners of his mouth raised, and found that something was wrong.

He squatted on the ground and poked Yato's shoulder, "What's wrong? Don't you like it?"

Yato's voice was low and hoarse, "No, I really like it."

He could hear Yato crying.

Natsume didn't know what to say for a while, he touched Yato's buried head, "Don't be like this, I gave you a gift in the hope that you would be happy to accept it."

"I'm very happy," Yato raised his head, his blue eyes were like jewels shining under the moonlight, he said softly, "I really want the shrine, I've always wanted it, but no one helped me." I built it, but no one has been willing to help me build it. A god without a shrine, no matter how hard he tries, seems to be an existence that is not needed by human beings."

Natsume wiped his cheek with the back of his hand, he looked at Yato seriously, and listened carefully to what he said.

"Did you know Natsume," Yato said, "accepting the shrine is the greatest affirmation and a supreme honor for our gods, thank you."

Natsume heard Yato say thank you many times, but never was it more solemn and forceful than now.He looked at the shrine in front of him, thinking that he might never be able to give a more perfect gift.

He whispered in Ye Dou's ear: "You're welcome, I believe in you, this is what a believer in Ye Dou should do."

The bell rang, and grand and gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the distant sky.

"I like you," Yato said.

The voice of the gods was hoarse after crying, tears were still hanging on his face, and the fireworks fell and rose again. Natsume felt that there was nothing more sincere and touching than this confession.

He waited for a long time, but Yato didn't withdraw his head again. After saying such things before, Yato had to explain himself for a long time before he could continue to face him.

Natsume thought in his heart, progress...

With a thought, Natsume asked: "Can I make a wish? You still owe me a wish, remember?"

Yato hugged the shrine and nodded, he still remembered his promise at that time - I will satisfy you unconditionally, no matter how heinous your request is, I will do it for you.

He stood up and looked seriously into Natsume's eyes.

"My wish," Natsume said, "is that the god who likes me will keep this gentleness and be happy every day."

Yato was stunned for two seconds, and asked with a silly expression, "That's it?"

Natsume nodded, "Can't you?"

"Okay!" Yato immediately showed a big smile, and he snapped his fingers in the air with a brisk voice.

"I heard your wish. Natsume Takashi, you are a destined person."

Yato took a step forward and hugged Natsume, kissing him lightly.

"And the one I love."

The bells are ringing, the fireworks are in full bloom, and the silver-white snowflakes fall silently on the winter night.

Natsume thought dimly, no matter how long this life is, he will no longer be lonely.
