After successfully forming the Spirit-branded Shikigami contract, Rozen and Natsume were ready to pack their things.
Taisun had also said that the train tickets for the two of them had already been booked for the next day. Even if it was not urgent, it was still not something that could be easily wasted. They had to pack their things by the end of the day so that they could set off for Tokyo the next day.
Fortunately, Rozen basically did not need to bring anything with him. Apart from a few clothes and his self-made talismans, he did not need to bring anything else.
As for living expenses, Taisun just threw a card to Rozen and told him that he could use it however he wanted. Therefore, Rozen did not need to worry about money. It only took him a few minutes to finish packing.
On the other hand, as a girl, Natsume needed to pack a lot of things. One night might not be enough.
Because of this, Rozen and Natsume went to the Earth Imperial Gate branch house together, ready to help her out a little.
"There's really no need. Anyway, there's a simple way to help. There's no need to worry about manpower."
Natsume had been saying that, but since Rozen had nothing to do anyway, he might as well go along.
When the two of them arrived at the Earth Imperial Gate branch house, it was almost evening.
At the entrance of the house, a person was walking out. When he saw Rozen and Natsume, he revealed a surprised expression.
"Qiu Guan? Natsume? "
He called out in surprise.
Seeing this, Natsume was slightly startled, then immediately greeted the other person.
"Brother."
It was Spring Tiger.
After so many years, Spring Tiger had grown quite a bit. Although he still looked stupid, he looked very healthy. The energetic and mischievous look of the past had somewhat changed, and he had become a lot more mature.
"Yo, Spring Tiger." So Rozen said casually, "Long time no see."
Indeed, it had been a long time.
If he thought about it carefully, Rozen had not seen Spring Tiger since the New Year.
The reason was also very simple. It was because other than the routine visit during the New Year, Spring Tiger no longer ran to the Earth Imperial Gate branch house for no reason.
Now, Spring Tiger looked like a high school student that could be seen everywhere, very ordinary.
Spring Tiger scratched his head and smiled bitterly at Rozen.
"I didn't expect that you would come out from home. How strange."
This was also an important reason why they had not seen each other for a long time.
For the sake of cultivation, Rozen, as always, did not step out of the house. Apart from going to school, he basically would not step out of the house.
If it was when he was a child, Rozen was invited by Susumu and Natsume several times, but as they grew up, that kind of thing no longer happened.
This was the reason why Spring Tiger was so surprised.
In other words, the two had not seen each other for such a long time, and they could not blame each other.
One of them smiled bitterly while the other shrugged, and both of them didn't say anything further.
"That …" Xia Mu seemed to have some misgivings. He carefully asked Spring Tiger, "Brother, what are you going to do outside at this time?"
"It's nothing," Spring Tiger replied honestly. "I just went to the convenience store."
"Is that so?" Natsume glanced at Spring Tiger and then at Rozen. Then, he seemed to have thought of something and said, "Then I will go in first. You two talk."
It seemed that Natsume wanted to give Rozen and Spring Tiger, the two childhood friends who had not seen each other for a long time, the space to talk alone.
After all, the two of them would leave for Tokyo tomorrow. It might be difficult for them to meet again in the future, and they might even become complete strangers. It was always good to talk.
With this thought in mind, Natsume bowed apologetically and walked into the house.
Only Rozen and Spring Tiger were left. They looked at each other face to face and laughed one after another.
"Going to the convenience store, right?" Rozen said, "I will go with you."
"Going is not a problem." Spring Tiger said hesitantly, "But do you know where the convenience store is? Do you know how to buy things? Ah … and you need money to buy things … "
Before he finished speaking, a talisman was pressed against Spring Tiger's chest.
Rozen held the talisman and pressed it against Spring Tiger's chest like a gun.
"Do you think I am an idiot who doesn't go out?"
Rozen said with a fake smile.
"No … No … No …"
Spring Tiger's face was stiff and cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
After not seeing each other for a long time, this stupid tiger was still the same. He needed to be taught a lesson.
The two of them played around for a while before they left the house together and headed in the direction of the convenience store.
Along the way, the two of them talked about their childhood and gradually eliminated the unfamiliarity between them.
Originally, Rozen and Spring Tiger did not have any conflicts. It was just that they chose different paths, which led to the distance between them. However, they were both grown men, so there was no need to be pretentious. After a few words, they got back to the old feelings.
When the two of them came out of the convenience store after buying things, it was no longer the same as before.
Under such circumstances ….
"I heard from Mom and Dad that you are going to Tokyo with Natsume tomorrow to study at Yin Yang School, right?"
On the way home, Spring Tiger, who was carrying two plastic bags, asked this question.
"Yes."
Rozen also carried a plastic bag and answered Spring Tiger's question.
However …
"Do you really plan to enter a normal high school?"
Rozen mentioned this nonchalantly.
This caused Spring Tiger's footsteps to pause for a moment, but he immediately returned to normal.
"I have no choice." Spring Tiger also said nonchalantly, "I can't see ghosts. Even if I want to become a Yin-Yang Master, it won't work. I can only enter a normal high school."
This sentence, in exchange for Rozen's attitude of curling his lips.
"Who are you trying to fool?" So Rozen said, "If you really want to become a Yin-Yang Master, it's not like there's no way at all, right?"
Indeed, it was very rare to see ghosts, and a powerful ghost talent was as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. If one did not have it, they would not be able to become a Yin-Yang Master.
However, if one did not pursue power and only wished to see ghosts, it was not like there was no way.
"It's not that there aren't any techniques that can make ordinary people see ghosts. Although there are limitations and the effects are time-consuming, if it's a skilled Yin Yang Master, it shouldn't be a problem for him to maintain the effect for several years. You can ask your father to help you, right?"
Rozen revealed this secret.
This was also the reason why the atmosphere in the Earth Yu Clan became sour when Spring Tiger was mentioned.
At the end of the day, it was because Spring Tiger himself did not want to become a Yin-Yang Master, which was why he became like this.
In other words, he had given up long ago.
"Even if I rely on spells to see ghosts, there are so many limitations, and I have no natural talent. I'm sure I will be the one with the least future, and I will never become a professional Yin-Yang Master. You can understand this, right?"
The Spring Tiger let out a sigh.
"That's why I don't want to think about this anymore. I'll let Natsume inherit the family. As for me, I'll just be an ordinary person."
This was Spring Tiger's decision.
"I don't hate this kind of life. In fact, I quite like it. I recently made a strange friend, and we should get along quite well."
Spring Tiger extended his fist towards Rozen.
"Natsume has become your Spirit-branded Retainer, right? Then I'll leave her to you? Alfalfa shell actinide
Spring Tiger stared closely at Rozen.
Meeting Spring Tiger's gaze, Rozen fell silent.
Then, Rozen sighed, extended his hand, and bumped fists with Spring Tiger.
"Leave it to me."
Rozen made this promise.
