It was this human who had invited it over.
It was also this human who had given it candy.
The little monster knew that very well.
None of that had anything to do with the monsters by his side.
It was enough if it and the monsters by his side could coexist peacefully.
"...Goodbye."
Zhao Luzheng pressed his lips together and murmured the same.
Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun couldn't help looking at Zhao Luzheng.
Zhao Luzheng rubbed his neck and coughed softly twice, looking somewhat ill at ease.
He knew that what he'd just done was a little foolish.
He hadn't expected...
He'd blurted it out.
His brain hadn't caught up with his mouth.
Still, he didn't regret it.
Even though he couldn't see or hear it...
The monster could see and hear him.
So his effort hadn't been wasted.
The little monster glanced at Zhuge Yun.
What a strange human.
He couldn't see it, either.
Why was he saying goodbye to it?
After waving to Xiao Xiao, it flew toward the moon high above.
Of course.
That was only an illusion.
It was a monster.
It knew it couldn't possibly fly all the way to the moon.
Maybe one day, when it had the power to change human fate...
Then it would be able to fly up to the bright moon in the sky.
What would the view be like?
"Goodbye."
Zhuge Yun enunciated clearly.
Zhang Bo was a little startled.
Zhao Luzheng had spoken softly.
But this guy—
His volume was perfectly normal, as though he were... saying goodbye to an ordinary person.
Still, seeing that the other two had said goodbye...
Even though he told himself... the little monster might already have left...
"Goodbye."
Zhang Bo mumbled.
When someone left—
Uh...
