Yuki Akane wiped off the water stains on Iwanaga Kotoko's body, and helped her dry her hair with a hair dryer as if taking care of her daughter. Then, the two of them came to her bedroom.

This was probably the first time that someone other than his family came to his room... When Akane realized this fact, he felt sad.

She obviously wanted to give it to her boyfriend for the first time, but why did she give it to this girl...

Yuuki Akane looked at Iwanaga Kotoko with a resentful look on his face.

After taking a shower, Iwanaga Kotoko put on her prosthetic eyes and limbs again. She was wearing the white nightgown that Yuki Akane wore when she was in junior high school. Not only was she not too small, she was even one size too big.

She didn't notice Yuuki Akane's eyes, and carefully glanced around Yuuki Akane's bedroom, sat on her bed, and patted the soft cushions.

"Come and sit down." she greeted.

Who is the owner of this room... From the time Kotoko Iwanaga entered this house to now, she has been the one in control. It's not that Yuki Akane feels troubled or bored, but she is just wondering, what on earth is she?

What experiences have you had and why did you develop such a strong character?

Jiucheng Chiyin sat down next to Qinzi, she thought, the next time is Qinzi's time to prove herself, anyway, no matter what she says, she just needs to answer the question.

"Do you believe there are monsters in this world?" Sure enough, Qinzi spoke up as soon as she sat down.

"There should be some."

Yuki Akane nodded hesitantly. Although he didn't know about monsters, he had already seen "Gel Man Nanase". Since "ghosts" exist, it is logical that there should be monsters.

However, even if there are monsters, I can't see them...

Just when Yuki Akane was thinking this, Kotoko Iwanaga came to the window, opened the window, puffed up her cheeks and whistled.

Yuuki Akane also came to the bedside, and when he was curious about what she was looking at, an old man with red horns who was only the size of a toy and rode a white toy puppy suddenly appeared in front of Yuuki Akane.

At first, Yuki Akane thought it was a hallucination before her eyes. She blinked her eyes and found that the other person was still floating in front of her eyes. She quickly retreated to the bed in panic and tripped up Kotoko Iwanaga's hand that had been thrown on the ground.

crutches and fell towards the bed.

The elasticity of the bed was too strong. After she fell on the bed, she rolled around in the air and hit her head on the cabinet.

"It hurts, it hurts... What, what is this!" Yuki Akane rubbed his head and asked Iwanaga Kotoko in panic, "Is this a monster!?"

"Ask him yourself." Qinzi showed a successful smile and leaned against the window.

The old man riding a white dog floated in from the window and came to Yuuki Akane. He suddenly said loudly and strongly: "Allow me to reveal my identity. I am a Kodama spirit named Genichiro. I was attacked by one foot and one eye."

The princess summoned me, I’m sorry for the late night visit, I frightened you!”

The other party's words were very ancient and strict, and he was wearing clothes from hundreds of years ago. He looked like the head of a closed-door village.

Not only looks, I'm afraid I'm actually very old too...

Apart from Yuuki Akane's initial surprise, she may have experienced too many things today, so she didn't feel too scared, and she quickly calmed down.

"A princess with only one leg and one eye...could it be said..." Yuuki Akane murmured.

"That's right, one eye and one foot, that's me." Iwanaga Kotoko held the crutch with one hand and pulled out her right leg with the other hand, holding it in her hand and shaking it in horror, showing a proud look.

With a smile, "You should believe it now, right? I am the god of wisdom among monsters."

"I believe it." With the facts in front of her, Yuuki Akane couldn't tolerate disbelief. She nodded and suddenly said: "I remember, the girl who bullied you back then was probably the one who scared her with your monster!"

"To the monsters, I am a very important existence, so they will not let me get hurt. They just played some pranks and did not hurt her." Iwanaga Kotoko said this sentence quite frankly.

Already.

Iwanaga Kotoko turned to the monster and said, "Genichiro, how did you tell me about it?"

Genichiro twisted his body and shouted to Kotoko: "I have told other Kodama friends in Tokyo that they have contacted some monsters who are good at tracking and are now tracking each other's traces!"

"Thank you for your hard work." Iwanaga Kotoko nodded in greeting.

"It's my honor to be able to help the princess with only one eye and one foot!" He shouted happily, "If there is nothing else, I won't disturb you two when they sleep!"

Watching the monster go away, Qinzi closed the window again.

"The wood spirit is the spirit that lives in the trees in legend. If the trees where the wood spirit resides are cut down, it will bring disaster to the local area. It is said that the local people usually pass down from generation to generation which trees are inhabited by the wood spirit and prevent others from cutting them down.

..."

Yuki Akane told what he knew about Kodori and looked up at Kotoko, "So this kind of creature really exists, but why couldn't I see them before?"

"In ancient times, monsters regarded humans as easy-to-handle bugs that could satisfy their hunger, so they did not shy away from showing their existence."

Iwanaga Kotoko sat on the bed, kicked Erlang's legs, and continued, "But with the continuous development of modern human technology, monsters have discovered that they are no longer able to call the wind and rain, and humans have become the top of the food chain.

Sometimes, humans only need one bullet to kill them.

In order to continue to survive, except for a few monsters like tanuki who like to turn into humans, most monsters have been hiding in the mountains and forests and will not appear in front of humans. In their eyes, humans are natural enemies and terrifying existences.

.”

Iwanaga Kotoko chuckled and said: "Akane-chan, can you imagine that monsters that have always been the incarnation of terror in human stories are now afraid of humans."

"So that's it..." Yuki Akane reacted, eyes widened and said, "Could it be that the person who kidnapped you is a monster!?"

"That's right." Qinzi nodded approvingly, "The IQs of monsters are generally not high. They are afraid of humans, but they also recognize human wisdom. So one day, they quietly kidnapped a child and took her to the forest.

, took away an eye and a hand, and begged her, 'Please be our God of Wisdom.'"

"Asking a child for help? This is a bit ridiculous..."

"Yes, if it were a human being, he would definitely not hand over such an important decision to a child. That child would face all kinds of doubts and do not believe that he can independently write a paper and compose 2,000 poems a day. Of course, a child

It is also impossible to do it. This is a 'reasonable doubt' for humans and is a normal doubt."

Qinzi nodded, "But this is the cuteness of monsters. After the child nodded and said 'I do', they believed her. Whenever any disputes or problems occurred, they would come to her to help arbitrate and solve them."

, and there are some monsters among them who are terrifying just by their names.”

Qinzi laughed: "Akane-chan, can you imagine that a monster that is said to have eaten thousands of people actually listened to a little girl's opinions, asked her about her future, and asked her to help her?
