Natsume Takashi's Youth Love Song

“I don’t know how to spend the rest of my life.”

As a monster, no, it should be said that she is an elf born from a cherry tree, she cannot leave her body, which is this tree, for a long time.

Therefore, compared to other monsters that can move freely, she would be more likely to be lonely.

"By the way...is there a child who can see me?"

The monster on the tree also recalled a memory of his own at this moment, "That child seemed to be lonely too? Just like me, what was his name? Natsume... Natsume?"

"Yes, that's right, it's Natsume."

The monster on the tree became happy because he remembered Natsume's name.

A monster's happiness is sometimes so simple.

"Ah, that kid was really fun back then. Now, I don't know what's going on with him? How is he doing? Has he made any friends?"

The monster on the tree couldn't help but mutter at this moment.

"I wonder if he will think of me when he has free time."

The monster on the tree thought of Natsume’s embrace, it was really... so warm!

Chapter 314: Strange Monster, Strange Natsume

Even though so much time has passed, even though she just changed her body and became a cat, and then was hugged by the other person, she still remembers the warmth of that embrace.

"Ah, no, no, the current Natsume probably hasn't been born yet, right?"

The monster on the tree couldn't help but shook his head.

but……

I really, really, really want to feel that embrace again.

"If possible, I would like to use my body to feel that embrace. It will definitely be warmer, right?"

The monster on the tree became expectant at this moment.

"It's decided. From today on, I'll wait here. Waiting for Natsume, waiting for him to come back to me, waiting..."

The monster on the tree set himself an expectation called waiting.

"It's just...how long do we have to wait?"

"No matter what, my life is so long..."

Thinking of this, the monster on the tree became happy again.

If there is no expectation, no persistence... then even monsters will wither away.

"By the way...how many days will it take from now until Natsume shows up?"

The monster on the tree started thinking at this moment, and then realized that she didn't remember anything at all.

"I forgot... Never mind, let's just treat today as the first day."

The personality is very cheerful and optimistic.

……Dividing line……

According to his memory, after arriving in this small town, Natsume walked towards the path that he took to go to school.

Although those were all his memories from elementary school, there was only one path leading to school, so after asking many people, Natsume saw the cherry tree from a distance.

Of course, there were no cherry blossoms as it was not the flowering season.

But there, there is the monster that Natsume wants to see.

"She... probably doesn't even know me, right?"

Natsume stopped and looked at the cherry tree from afar. To be honest, for a moment, he was a little afraid to go forward.

Although he was not homesick, it seemed to Natsume that it was basically the same.

In Natsume's opinion, the trouble with this matter is that he knows the other party, but the other party does not know him, and he took the initiative to find the other party because the other party contacted him in the future.

Anyway, this is getting pretty awkward.

"Maybe... I can make friends with him?"

Thinking of this, Natsume no longer felt that there was any problem, so he walked forward.

As Natsume approached, the monster on the tree began to move its nose slightly.

"Sniff, sniff, sniff."

My nose moved and then I smelled a familiar scent.

"This smell... is a little familiar?"

The monster on the tree then began to think about where he had smelled this scent.

"Wait a moment!"

Instantly, the monster on the tree finally reacted, and then showed a surprised expression, "No way? It can't really be Natsume?"

She realized that this smell was exactly the same as the one she smelled when she was hugged by Natsume. So, who else could it be except Natsume?

But then, she came to her senses again and continued to slump on the tree trunk. "Just thinking about it, I know it's impossible. At this time, Natsume hasn't been born yet, right? So how could it be Natsume?"

However, as Natsume walked closer, the unique smell of Natsume became more and more obvious.

This also made the expression on the monster on the tree become strange.

To be honest, she was a little uncertain for a moment and even began to waver.

"Although I know that Natsume hasn't been born yet, but... this aura is obviously very similar, right? No, it can even be said to be exactly the same?"

This made her wonder if she had remembered something wrong.

"That's not right. I'm still young as a youkai, how could I remember it wrong?"

This time, I really can't handle her anymore.

The puzzled monster on the tree looked in the direction where the breath came from, and then saw Natsume.

"Well, not Natsume."

The monster on the tree nodded. Although the aura was the same, it was definitely not the Natsume she met. After all, Natsume at that time was just a monster child.

"Could it be... this is Natsume's grandfather?"

Afterwards, the monster on the tree's thoughts began to diverge again.

She felt that this was very likely.

but……

"wrong!"

The monster in the tree felt something was wrong again.

"No, no, no."

He quickly sat up from his lying position with a strange expression on his face, "Why didn't something like this happen before? And this time, I had such a different experience?"

"Who is hiding in the tree?"

Natsume asked immediately after arriving under the tree, with a hint of confusion on his face.

"!!!"

As Natsume asked, the monster on the tree suddenly became nervous and dared not move.

Carefully, I looked through the gaps between the leaves and saw Natsume right in front of me.

"The aura... is it really like that?"

The look in the tree monster's eyes when he looked at Charles became complicated.

"Don't hide in the tree, it's dangerous. If you want to play, come down."

Natsume reminded "kindly".

"!!!"

Suddenly, the eyes of the monster on the tree lit up.

"what!!!"

Suddenly, the monster on the tree stood upside down and appeared in front of Natsume, scaring Natsume.

"Why!!!"

Even though Natsume was prepared, he was still a little frightened by the other party's sudden attack.

"You... can you see me?"

The monster on the tree looked at Natsume's reaction and, to be honest, was still quite surprised.

Now, the similarities between the other party and Natsume are even more.

"Yeah, I can see you."

Natsume nodded, looking into the other's eyes with a hint of nostalgia.

It has been a long time since he last saw the other person, but the other person looked exactly the same as he remembered, without any change.

"As expected, the words of the monsters have not changed at all even after decades?"

Natsume's thoughts began to diverge.

"It's really rare for a human to be able to see a monster."

The monster on the tree looked at Natsume with nostalgia in his eyes.

After all, there are very few humans who can see monsters. Even she has only met Natsume in all these years.

And now, she actually met one again?

"By the way, what's your name?"

The monster on the tree asked Natsume curiously.

"Natsume Takashi, you can just call me Natsume."

Natsume said his name with a bright smile on his face.

Chapter 315 I Want to Know You More

"I'm Natsume Takashi, you can just call me Natsume."

Natsume looked at the monster on the tree in front of him and said his name with a smile.

The smile on her face was very bright.

"Natsume... Takashi?"

The monster on the tree was stunned, with a look of disbelief in his eyes. He never expected that it would be such a coincidence.

To be honest, the monster on the tree is really a little confused now.

She was a little confused about what was happening before her eyes.

"Why is there such a big change this time?"

The tree monster was confused.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with my name?"

Natsume looked at the other party's reaction and couldn't help but reveal a hint of confusion. Why did the other party have such a strange reaction after hearing his name?

"No, there's nothing wrong with the name."

The monster on the tree shook her head and looked deeply at Natsume in front of her. Then, with a hint of seriousness in her eyes, she made a decision.

"Natsume, do you...know me?"

The monster on the tree stared at Natsume in front of him through the mask on his face and asked.
