Chapter 2258 The Clouds Disperse
The original purpose of the Demon Master Alliance was to protect.

Protect humans who can see monsters and are considered aliens in the eyes of the public.

Children who can see monsters are naturally their main targets of protection.

However, even though the Demon Master Alliance is powerful, it is impossible to be all-powerful.

There are always children like Wei Xinhai.

It was not discovered by the Demon Master Alliance.
I have no idea of ​​my own specialness.

I was confused and puzzled about what I had gone through.

By the time the ignorant child grows up and understands everything, the damage has already been done.

……

"Ah, sorry."

The man suddenly realized, "Did I talk too much?"

"Feel sorry……"

"I haven't talked to anyone in a long time..."

To be precise, apart from the most basic communication, he hadn't talked to anyone about his own affairs, his own thoughts, his own emotions, and other private matters for a long time...

For a moment, he was a little carried away.

……

"Feel sorry……"

The man murmured.

Some uneasiness arose in my heart.

For a stranger, he seemed too rude.

He blurted out everything in one go.

They are all his own negative emotions...

……

"Do you feel better?"

Xiao Xiao smiled.

The man was stunned.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he nodded honestly.

He really felt much better.

I feel a lot more relaxed.

……

"That's good."

Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved, "It seems that my suggestion is very good."

"Proper confession is necessary."

"If you keep everything to yourself, you'll easily get stuck in a rut."

……

The man pursed his lips.

"……Thanks."

……

“I was just a listener.”

Xiao Xiao looked gentle.

It's all in the past.

All he could do... was listen.

……

"This is enough."

The corners of the man's mouth raised slightly.

From the past to the present, what he needs is someone who is willing to listen to him.

Seemingly feeling a little embarrassed, the man tilted his head to look out the window.

He showed his embarrassing side in front of people younger than him... He didn't think much of it when he said it, but now he feels a little uncomfortable after realizing it.

The next second, the man was stunned.

He stared blankly at his face reflected in the glass window.

He hadn't looked at his face in the mirror for a long time.

The face on the glass window...he felt a little strange, yet also a little...nostalgic.

It was a different face from the last one he remembered seeing.

Not so gloomy.

His brows weren't furrowed that tightly.

The pale complexion of the face could not be seen in the glass...very ordinary.

It's just an ordinary person's face.

There is no doubt about the mental state of the owner of this face.

He reached up and touched the corner of his eye.

His eyes...are they smiling?
How long?
What he saw in those eyes was not fear, not gloom, not bewilderment and helplessness, but... a faint smile.

……

The man's body suddenly shook.

His fingertips were burned by the corners of his eyes.

He suddenly withdrew his hand.

After a few seconds, he reached out and pressed the corner of his eye.

Something flowed down his fingers.

……

The man reached out to touch the tissue on the table in a panic.

He didn't dare turn his head.

The way I look now is so embarrassing.

……

Ok?
He was startled by the tissue handed to him.

Then the man realized something, stammered a thank you and took the tissue.

……

Although his embarrassment had been exposed, the man wiped his face roughly before turning his head.

A slightly awkward smile appeared on his face.

"Student Xiao..."

"Cough cough~"

The hoarse voice made the man cough violently a few times.

Suddenly, he thought of a question.

"Student Xiao... don't you have the same troubles as me?"

Xiao can also see monsters, but compared to his miserable state, Xiao is obviously more at ease.

He was...very envious.

……

Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly, "I'm different from you."

"I didn't see the monster until I went to college."

As an adult, he naturally would not be as helpless as a child.

……

"what?"

The man was stunned.

“You only saw it in college?”

"I thought-"

The man paused.

He remembered that he didn't see the monster at the beginning.

No.

He always thought that he encountered a monster that year.

And the ability to see is something he has from birth.

and so……

Actually, he saw a monster that year... right?

This ability...

"Isn't it natural?"

The man murmured.

……

“It’s natural.”

Xiao Xiao nodded, "I just don't know when it will appear or disappear."

……

"disappear?"

The man opened his mouth wide, "It will disappear?!"

……

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao smiled, "You can see it when you are a child, but maybe you won't be able to see it when you grow up."

“You can see it today, but maybe you won’t be able to see it tomorrow, next year, or in a few years.”

“Everyone’s situation is going to be different.”

……

"That's it..."

The man's eyes were a little dazed. "This is the first time I know..."

"turn out to be……"

“Will I still not see it?”

……

"…When you can't see, there's no way to know, right?"

The man confirmed.

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao tilted his head, and the sunlight just happened to shine on his face.

"There's no way of knowing."

……

"It's really weird."

The man rubbed his temple.

"I saw it for some unknown reason."

"I can't see it for some reason."

I always feel like... "...so willful..."

The man said vaguely.

It's obviously messed up his life...

……

Xiao Xiao smiled slightly.

Yes.

Very willful indeed.

Whether it is for people who like this ability or for people who hate this ability.

……

The man stared at the chocolate milk tea in front of him in a daze.

I always thought I had to hide my specialness for the rest of my life...but then I was told that this specialness might disappear one day...

To be honest, his feelings were somewhat complicated.

He was naturally relieved.

Except...apart from a sigh of relief...

There are other emotions...

For a moment, he couldn't tell what emotion it was.

……

The man shook his head.

Shake off the chaotic thoughts in your mind.

Why think so much?
Seeing...or not seeing was never something he could decide.

All he could do was accept it.

……

"Gulu~Gulu~"

The man picked up the chocolate milk tea and drank it all in one gulp.

He didn't know whether it was because the coffee shop's craftsmanship was particularly good, or because of his change in mood, but he just felt that he had never tasted such delicious chocolate milk tea before.

"Bang~"

The bottom of the cup hit the table with a crisp sound.

……

"Student Xiao."

The man smiled sincerely.

Even though his expression was still unclear, compared to before he entered the coffee shop, the man felt as if the heavy cloud in his heart had dissipated and he felt much more open.
