Ozzy found this monster whose head was made of wood in a forest.

The name of the monster is Eclipse, and he likes to travel. For about the same reason as Oz, Eclipse rarely stays in a certain place.

He likes to wander in uninhabited places, and when he comes to the human world occasionally, it is only due to some emergencies that he has to rely on human dwellings.

The eclipse is a very kind and reciprocating monster that hardly hurts people, and even after the use of human residences, it will use its own methods to repay human beings—such as using his ability to repair old tools in human homes, For example, rusty sickles, broken tableware, or wooden tables and chairs eaten by moths.

After the ability of the solar and lunar eclipse was spread, he was "sought after" by human beings.Most human beings hope to find the eclipse, take his abilities as their own, and seek some benefits from there.Therefore, for so many years, solar and lunar eclipses have rarely appeared in places with people.

I didn't expect Natsume to encounter such a monster, and I don't know whether it is luck or misfortune.

When Oz fell in front of the eclipse, Mr. Cat also came running panting from the other side - when he flew in the sky, he still looked like a huge fox, and when he landed, he turned into a fat cat again, nothing The image had to hit the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Handsome but three seconds.

But fortunately, they just blocked the pace of the eclipse wanting to leave like this.

Eclipse does not know Ozzy, but he can vaguely feel a bad breath from Ozzy.So he took two steps back, and realized that the monster behind him was the one next to the human just now.

There was a piece of wood on the face of the eclipse, revealing the dark mist in it. He turned his head and looked at Mr. Cat: "Oh, what a coincidence."

"What a coincidence! We came here specially to find you!" Teacher Cat jumped up angrily, patting the ground desperately, "Hey, hurry up and get rid of the spell you put on Natsume!"

"Remove? Why?" Eclipse was puzzled.

His ability has always been sought after by humans, and no one has asked to return his gift after receiving it.

Oz spread his hands: "Is it hard to understand? Because suddenly becoming smaller will bring a lot of unnecessary troubles to Natsume."

The eclipse continued: "But rejuvenation is something that human beings have been pursuing, and no one would dislike it."

"You're talking about longevity, right?" Oz nodded understandingly. "Indeed, many human beings are looking for ways to live forever."

Teacher Cat suddenly became surprised: "Hey! What's the matter with you? Why are you still talking about the eclipse?"

"I'm sorry, I'm just expressing my feelings."

Oz stopped smiling.

"We came to you this time without malice. We just hope that you can undo the spell on Natsume. Your gift is too precious."

Also too proud.

Don't listen to other people's opinions, and insist on imposing what you think is good on others, but you don't know that this gift may not be suitable for the recipient.

"Compared to going back to childhood, Natsume will be happier when he grows up."

Oz smiled and looked at the silent teacher cat.

A powerful monster chooses to stay with a human because it wants to get something from the human.

Or being attracted to certain qualities of being human.

Oz didn't quite know how he read the doubtful emotion from Eclipse's face without facial features. In short, Eclipse was silent for a long time before raising his own doubts.

"Don't humans like to go back to the past? Not only can they live for many years, but they can also do many things that they never had time to do before."

"Maybe humans prefer to look into the future compared to the past?"

Oz touched his chin.

Among the three non-human beings present, none of them could say for sure that they fully understood the thoughts and emotions of human beings. They could only talk to each other in silence, and then looked away from each other in embarrassment.

When the sunset is coming, the emerald green forest has been covered with a layer of golden yellow.

There are layers of thick clouds in the sky in the countryside. The place near the sunset is yellow, and it turns pink when it is farther away, just like a beautiful oil painting.

The eclipse was still not convinced by Ozzy and Mr. Cat, but he still chose to wave his hand and set the time gear on Natsume back to the correct track.

"It would be great if a human could answer whether to choose the past or the future."

The eclipse bowed its head, and the robe fluttered gently in the breeze.

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound of a branch being trampled off from not far away.

The two monsters and one blood race immediately raised their heads and looked in the direction of the sound.

The bushes trembled slightly, and after a while, a pale hand pushed open the branches.The young boy showed his bandaged wrists, and a fallen leaf that he brought from nowhere hung on his head. He looked embarrassed, but his expression was extremely calm and composed.

"Dazai?" Oz opened his eyes slightly, not expecting Dazai to appear here.

Indeed, before they separated, they had an inexplicable quarrel, and Ozzy was already prepared to coax Dazai for two hours when he returned home.

Who would have known that Dazai would come to look for him on his own initiative?

Dazai's expression was a bit strange. After seeing the two monsters behind Oz, he didn't even show any signs of panic. Instead, he looked around and suddenly became happy.

"Why didn't you see that brat?"

"Little devil? You mean Natsume? He's at his classmate's place."

"Oh."

Dazai stepped out of the grass slowly, and within a few short steps, his expression became brighter at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He even waved to Teacher Cat friendly.

"Ah, Lucky Cat Monster, long time no see."

"...Although my uncle's appearance is indeed changed according to the lucky cat, but what you said still makes me very uncomfortable."

A "well" character appeared on Mr. Cat's forehead, and he gritted his teeth and breathed out at Dazai.

Ozzy quickly stood between Dazai and Mr. Kitty, smiled wryly and took Dazai aside, lowering his voice, "Why did you come here?"

Dazai looked at him, thought for a moment, and replied, "Didn't I say so?"

He grabbed Ozzy's hand, turned the ring between Ozzy's fingers, and his expression became better again.

"This," Ozzy's hand was shaken, and he appeared in the eyes of Teacher Cat and Eclipse from a tricky angle, "No matter where you are, I can find you."

It is the magic ring that Dazai said can be located.

Ozzy didn't feel the traces of magic on the ring at the very beginning, so he subconsciously thought that maybe Dazai made a mistake when carving the ring, which caused the magic that should have been effective to have no effect.

Didn't expect that Dazai really found a way to hide magic!

Dazai is indeed a genius!

Ozzy's eyes were shining, and Dazai looked away a little guilty.

On the side, Teacher Cat took two steps forward cautiously, straightened up her muscular body and looked at Ozzy's hand. The more she looked at it, the more strange her expression became.

"Hey, eclipse, have you ever seen a human give a ring to a human?"

Eclipse lowered his voice like Mr. Cat did: "I've seen it."

Teacher Cat hesitated for a moment: "Then you think they..."

Eclipse: "Actually, I could answer your question with confidence before today, but—"

The old monster paused, and his tone was a little weak: "But the human beings now seem to be different from the human beings in the past."

Teacher Cat rolled his eyes, wanting to shut down the microphone but unwilling.

the other side.

"But I didn't ask how you found me," Ozzy said a little embarrassedly, "I thought I had to coax you before you went out to have dinner together."

"coax?"

Dazai's tone suddenly rose, he frowned and raised his chin, his expression was exaggerated and unbelievable, and he spun half a circle on the spot impatiently, showing his back to Ozzy.

He snorted, but he didn't say what he said next.

"Check the time yourself."

"Hmm...! So it's already so late!"

The standard Tokyo time was displayed on the phone's screen—it was already 05:30 in the afternoon.

It was indeed time to go to dinner.

"Since this matter has been resolved, let's sue first——Wow! What are you doing, Mr. Cat?"

Ozzy was just about to take Dazai back to the town to eat barbecue, but he didn't expect a huge and fat cat to bump into his chest.

Although Mr. Cat has gained a lot of weight recently, his movements are still very sharp. He quickly crawled from Ozzy's chest to his neck, pulled his hair to take him back to the eclipse, and rushed to follow him. The coming Dazai raised his claws in denial—

"Human imps should not attend the meeting of monsters."

Dazai pointed to his own nose, but he still couldn't say the sentence "I'm not a human being", as if he was scolding himself.

Seeing Ozzy smiling helplessly, he carried Mr. Kitty down and put him on the ground, but finally he showed what little patience he had left.

"Hey, what's your relationship with that brat?"

Teacher Cat, Eclipse, and Oz, three of them surrounded the city and squatted on the ground facing each other in a small circle.

Ozzy didn't quite understand what they were going to do, but just thought it was interesting, so he followed them.

Oz raised his eyebrows: "Me and Dazai? Didn't I tell you that I owe that kid something, so I stay by his side? Don't worry, I really don't eat people."

Mr. Cat looked like he couldn't communicate with Ozzy, and his hairs exploded with anger. He gestured to Ozzy to explain the ring with his eyes, but Ozzy tilted his head in confusion.

"This? This is given to me by Dazai. Magicians always carry a few alchemy items with them, and this is the first ring that Dazai successfully made. You think it is very good? Do you want to see it?"

"You! I, I don't look!"

Mr. Cat stomped his feet, feeling that his blood pressure had risen.

"Don't you know? We are different from humans, and this kind of fate cannot exist—"

Ozzy paused and fell silent for a long time before he weakly defended: "I just like making friends with humans."

Teacher Cat stared: "Make friends?"

"Are you happy with him?"

"Very happy."

"Are you worried if you don't see him?"

"Well, yes, but I'll try to avoid situations where I can't see him."

"...Then do you want to travel with him all the time?"

"of course."

Ozzy's expression, which should be taken for granted but didn't realize the point, made Mr. Cat speechless. He could only pat the eclipse's robe angrily.

"Hey! Tell me! What is this feeling?"

The sun and moon eclipse, who had been silent and distracted for a few seconds, said bluntly: "Huh? Ah...maternal love."

Cat teacher:"???"

I'm crazy to talk to you guys about this stuff!

"But I just discovered one thing," the eclipse continued, and the eyes of the cat teacher next to him lit up with hope again, "We have humans."

"Human?" Ozzy and Mr. Cat asked in unison, puzzled.

The solar and lunar eclipse nodded affirmatively: "Yes, human beings."

Then, he stood up and looked at Dazai not far away.

"With humans, we can solve our doubts."

"Is it the future or the past."

"Since Natsume-sama rejects the past, let this human-sama talk about the future."

A gust of wind blew up beside the eclipse, and the black mist on his vacant face gradually dissipated, and a glimmer of light began to diffuse.

This beam of light quickly condensed, and under the gaze of everyone, it rushed towards Dazai at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

"and many more!"

"Oz?!"

Subconsciously teleported in front of Dazai, blocking the beam of light for him. Before Oz could say anything, he saw Dazai's face turn pale instantly and his pupils constricted.

Oz followed Dazai's line of sight.

The fingers on Dazai's shoulders have begun to become transparent, not only his hands, but also his body, as if he will dissolve into the air in the next moment.

Oz was also somewhat discriminating about the situation he was not in, and just wanted to say something to comfort Dazai, so that he would not be so nervous.

But he felt a heavy feeling in his throat.

A force restrained his movements.

"Oz? What's going on?!" Dazai's voice changed a little. He questioned the other two monsters, but he didn't dare to take his eyes off Oz for a moment.

Even in the end, the touch of Ozzy's hand disappeared in the palm of his hand.

--don’t worry!

Ozzy reacted quickly, silently repeating the mouth shape of this sentence.

He wanted to wipe off the cold sweat off Dazai's head, but his hand, which was almost invisible, directly passed through Dazai's face.

Finally, a heavy feeling completely overwhelmed Oz.

The sudden drowsiness and suffocation plunged his eyes into darkness, and at the last second of losing consciousness, Dazai's voice-changed call echoed in Ozzy's ears.

Surrounded by the cold from head to toe, it felt like being back in Polar Rioz's sleeping alone fortress.

In a trance, Ozzy just felt a little strange.

His whole body was extremely heavy, and the sound of water flowing in his ears was blurred and unreal. He was like a dead wood floating in the water. Half of his body was already soaked in liquid, and it might not be long before he would completely rot.

Ozzy's head was still dizzy until he was dragged out of the water.

The cold feeling in the body gradually faded away, and the tip of the nose was full of the fishy smell of river water and mud.

He felt the water run down his hair, across his cheeks, and down his chin.

He hates such a wet and sticky feeling, but the sun is dazzling, and he is a blood clan who loves the sun.

Love and dislike collided with each other, prompting Ozzy to open his eyes hard.

The man in front of him has short, fluffy hair and sparkling brown eyes. He is wearing a slim coat, and his shirt has unbuttoned a few buttons. It is a handsome and coquettish way of dressing. There is a bow tie made of gemstones under the collar. .

The water dripped down the man's face onto his own, and Ozzy realized that the man was standing above him, looking at him with his back to the sun.

He saw the man stretch out his hand towards him, and as if nothing happened, he withdrew his hand very naturally, then turned over and sat beside Ozzy.

Inexplicably, Ozzy felt a little familiar.

Not only the gem, but also the man in front of him.

But his vision was too blurry, he couldn't distinguish clearly for a moment, he could only feel himself being dragged ashore, and then a man's voice came over.

Both hoarse and nice.

There is also a hint of depression that Ozzy can't read.

The man covered his face, his voice sounded like crying and laughing.

"It's a pity, I woke up a little early, I thought I had a chance to give you artificial respiration."

What seems to be crying and laughing, is indeed laughing,

And said such impolite words to himself.

Is this a human hooligan?
