After choosing a big adventure at Lupine's Bar

"Ah, it's a snake." Only then did Oda Saku see what the rope-like object he was grasping was.

The White Snake, who had been pinched in an instant, reacted, gave up struggling, put the weight of his whole body on his fingers, and collapsed, pretending that he was a slightly more realistic prank toy.

"It's not an ordinary snake, probably." Mingyin poked the White Snake's cerebellum with the tip of his index finger, causing him to close his eye masks, and blue veins appeared on the top of his head.

"It's a monster."

Hearing this, the White Snake's anger level gradually increased, and he began to speak out.

"You impolite brat! This uncle is a noble snake god!"

"...God?" Mingyin tilted her head, confused by this.

In his judgment, this little snake is probably the envoy of a certain Gao Tianyuan god.

In this world, monsters also have bloodlines.

The descendants of the original envoys were born with a high starting point.

And pure and white creatures generally have some relationship with gods.

From him, one can perceive the clear "qi", which is one of the characteristics of having divinity.

But too faint.

Weak.

Even if you look at it purely as a youkai, it is the type so weak that you can crush it to death with one hand.

Perhaps it was because he occupied the Lordless Shrine and got enshrined by chance, that's why he called himself a god like this.

But now, this "Master Snake God" felt that he was being ridiculed because of Ming Yin's question.

"My uncle is the real deal!"

"Yes, I understand," Mingyin coaxed him perfunctorily, "May I ask what's the matter, Lord Snake God? After all, you just entangled me precisely."

This little snake that seems to have a bad temper is unexpectedly very easy to coax, just because of this "Master Snake God" it makes him feel comfortable.

He was clearly still being pinched and carried in mid-air, but he flicked his tail triumphantly, and the snake tail covered with tiny scales gently wrapped around the tip of Mingyin's index finger.

"Isn't your monster power very strong? Or is it spiritual power? Well, whatever, have you heard of the account of friends? I heard from the rumors of the little monsters around that the account of friends was inherited by Natsume Reiko's grandson, but my uncle But I don’t know where that person is now, what a headache.”

"...What is the account of friends?"

"A booklet that collects the names of monsters, with which you can command all the monsters in the book."

"So, is the name 'Master Snake God' also on it?"

"... Tsk, I was careless back then."

Mingyin pinched her chin with two fingers, "You can just ask those little monsters, it's rumored that they spread, right?"

"..."

"..."

Too bad, it looks like no one wants to talk to him at all, and he doesn't have a single friend.

Mingyin stared at the tiny snake tail wrapped around his right index finger, like a silver-white tail ring, exuding a faint white light, and the light black mist actively avoided it.

It was a pretty little snake, with eyes as ripe as berries, red with luscious sap.Not aggressive, looks weak, and easy to coax.

Um?Isn't this very similar to his weak roommate Mr.?

Although Mr. Roommate is not easy to coax.

"May [-]th, do you want to raise the Snake God?" Oda Saku saw that Mingyin had been looking at the little snake, and inexplicably remembered the child lying on the window of the toy store.

"...Hey, can I raise it?" Mingyin was a little confused, and suddenly broadened her thinking.

"Huh—? No!" White Snake objected angrily.

But He turned around and said, "But I don't mind raising you."

silent.

"Then please give me more advice, Lord Snake God." Mingyin showed an awkward yet polite smile.

Anyway, I already had one.Raising one is just raising, and raising two is the same.

A ghost roommate:? ? ?

"Do you want to keep calling him Lord Snake God? Is there a name that is a little more simple?" Oda Saku felt that the title "Master Snake God" was a bit lengthy.

Hearing this, the little snake was about to announce his name proudly, but was interrupted before he could say it.

"For those who can interpret, a lot of information can be interpreted from the name. For human beings, the future can be interpreted through the real name, and for existence like them from the other side, whether it is a real name or a pseudonym , itself is a kind of "curse", it is impossible to tell us easily. "

"...Yes, yes... Well, that's right, that's it!"

Ah, bad, it looks like I really wanted to say it.

At the same time, the friend account holder.

"A huge red-eyed white snake, this feature is rare..." Mr. Cat narrowed his three white eyes, and frowned on his big round face, "It can't be that guy."

"An acquaintance of Teacher Cat?"

"Well, it's not very familiar, it's just that there have been many conflicts... That guy used to be a mountain god, but after losing his faith, he became a demon. I haven't seen him for a long time..."

Sanhuamao suddenly realized something while talking, and his eyes widened, making his pupils even smaller.

"Hey, Natsume, when did you meet him? A few years ago?"

"When I was in the fifth grade of elementary school, about 6 years ago."

"Can you recall what he looks like now?"

"Hmm..." Natsume probably knew what Mr. Cat was going to do, so he took out the friend account from his bag.

By imagining the appearance of youkai in your mind, you can find the page with its name written on it.

The paper pages flew by themselves, and finally stopped at a certain page, softened and fell after stopping in the center.

"it is this."

Natsume gently caressed that page with his fingers, rubbed the paper with his fingertips habitually, and when the whole picture of this page came into view, he swallowed it back into his throat and forcibly suppressed an exclamation.

The page that should have been written with the name of the White Snake was completely obscured by the maroon dried blood.

It can be vaguely seen that part of the bloodstain is in the shape of a finger. It seems that it was printed on by grabbing the booklet.

"Mr. Kitty, is this...?" Natsume paused for a long time before regaining consciousness.

"do not know."

"what--?"

"Calm down, idiot," the fat but nimble three-colored cat kicked its short legs, jumped onto the table where the friend's account was placed, sniffed the tip of its nose, "I just guessed, that guy will come to you at that time, yes Isn't it because his name is also on the friend account, and you are Reiko's only descendant?"

"Then, it is indeed on the account of friends." Natsume continued.

"That guy just sent you back to your relatives? Didn't he do anything else?"

"... At that time, he had already developed a high fever, and fell asleep in a daze. I can remember his appearance because he was frightened."

"Tsk, what a fragile body."

"Although I don't know what His purpose was at that time, but since the friend account is in your hands now, then He will definitely come to you again."

"This blood stain smells like Reiko."
