For example, when the scarred monster crouched outside the cake shop earlier.
And now...
This human said he hadn't followed it...
The scarred monster really didn't believe him.
What normal human would show up here at this hour?
Did this human think it was some rookie monster fresh to human society, someone he could fool just like that?
If he thought so, he was badly mistaken.
Though it disliked humans...
It often moved through places where humans lived, after all. It couldn't help but... hear and see a lot...
Even without making a point of learning about humans, it had picked up plenty about them.
"I really wasn't following you."
Xiao Xiao's eyes curved into a smile as he defended himself.
"I just thought you might show up here, so I came to look for you."
Huh?
The scarred monster felt even more confused.
He thought it might show up here?
Why?
It didn't understand.
Why would this human think that?
As expected...
This human was trying to fool it, wasn't he?
The scarred monster's expression darkened.
Did it look like an idiot?
Humans were all so self-important, arrogant, and... annoying...
Xiao Xiao smiled faintly.
He looked at the balls scattered around the scarred monster.
"Did you do the same thing yesterday?"
"Throw all the balls out of the equipment room?"
Yes.
Xiao Xiao had arrived just as the scarred monster tossed down the soccer ball.
He hadn't said a word.
He wanted to know why the scarred monster was doing this.
So many balls...
What was the scarred monster planning to do?
The result had been somewhat unexpected.
Watching the scarred monster play as if it were at an amusement park, a faint smile rose in Xiao Xiao's eyes.
So...
This little monster liked playing
