Monster Tea Party

Chapter 5272 Two Peaches
What did you see!?

On a small stone platform not far away...

There are two peaches.

Chubby.

White and rosy.

In the sunlight, the fuzz on the peaches is clearly visible.

……

The child ran over immediately.

He looked left and right.

It's quiet here.

There is no one else but him.

……

The child hesitated for a while, but still couldn't resist the temptation of the peach.

It's been a while since I came out...

The child's mouth is thirsty.

I'm also a little hungry.

……

Who dropped this peach?
The child thought to himself.

He looked around again.

"……anyone there?"

he shouted tentatively.

……

The child cried several times.

Each sound is louder than the last.

No response was received.

Only the birds were frightened by his voice and flew into flight.

……

The child pursed his lips slightly.

A greedy look appeared on his face.

Since no one...

that……

The child reached out and took a peach.

This peach belongs to him.

……

"Click~"

The child took a bite.

The beautiful peach tastes as good as it looks.

Crisp and sweet.

The sweet juice splashed in the child's mouth.

……

The child's whole face lit up.

Delicious~

"Kacha ~ Kacha ~"

The child quickly ate up a peach that was slightly bigger than his fist.

The child licked his lips with satisfaction.

……

His original plan of just eating a peach was thrown to the back of his mind.

The child picked up the remaining peach.

……

With the first peach as a foundation, the child ate this peach more slowly.

……

The child puffed up his cheeks and looked around.

A trace of guilt in his heart made him decide to return.

……

"Kacha ~ Kacha ~"

The child took big bites of the peach and strode towards his grandmother's house.

....
The child finished eating the peach before entering his grandmother's house.

He clapped his hands.

Once I entered the house, I forgot about it.

He has finished eating the peaches, so what do he remember doing?
did not think of……

"Those two peaches are your peaches!?"

The child was surprised.

really?
……

The "grandfather" nodded.

"its mine."

Another child had given it to him.

and……

It's a parting gift.

The child is going back to the city to live with his parents.

Come see it one last time.

Gave it two big peaches.

……

The "old man" was only away for a while.

It followed the child who gave it the peach.

Until the child walked into his own house.

It looked outside for a while.

Then he turned around and went back to his residence.

……

At that time, it "passed by" the child in front of it.

It walks from the tree.

It looked down at the child.

Didn't care.

……

It returns to its own home.

Then I discovered...

The two peaches that were there just now are gone.

……

The "grandfather" was surprised.

It looked around.

There was no trace of the two peaches.

It was confused.

then……

A light bulb went off in its head.

That kid!

It was the child who ate its peach!
It's a little angry.

That's its peach.

It just wanted to come back to eat...

……

Thinking about the words of the child who gave it peaches...that child was the only child who gave it tribute in recent years.

Because I believed what the adults said, I thought it was a god who could control the rain.

In order to have a sunny day the next day and not affect his play, the child would offer it a tribute.

Have everything.

A nougat.

an apple.

A slice of watermelon...

This time, there are two rare big peaches.

……

The child said goodbye to it.

He said he was going to the big city with his parents.

Maybe I'll come back later.

But I don’t know when.

The child smiled brightly.

The final tribute was placed: two big peaches.

These were picked by the children themselves.

The child who always prayed to it gave it his blessing this time.

I hope it is happy and healthy.

……

It is somewhat regrettable.

Maybe it's reluctance?
After all, that child was the only one who came to offer it tribute in the past few years.

Even if it turns out that it doesn't seem to be an effective god.

Because there was a case where a child came the day before to pray for sunny weather the next day, but it ended up raining heavily the next day.

But the kid didn't complain.

Bring tribute with you next time.

Put your hands together and pray devoutly.

With an expectant smile on his face.

……

So, after the child said goodbye to it and left, it followed.

first……

It followed the child home.

of course.

It did not follow the child into the home.

It stopped at the door of the child's house.

Watching the child walk into the house,

Listening to the children happily calling mom and dad, watching the children running back and forth, busy and happy...

……

It turned and left.

It wants to eat peaches.

……

but……

Its peach is gone.

....
Someone ate its peaches.

Looking at the peach pit on the ground, it was rarely seen that it was a little... unhappy.

……

This is its peach.

who……

He actually moved its things.

……

Soon, it locked onto its target.

After all, it's such a coincidence.

On the way back it encountered...
Also a child.

They are both children, so it cannot show leniency to him.

……

Dare to steal the offerings from the gods...
It will bring retribution.

……

The two children unexpectedly left the remote village on the same day.

They got in different cars.

It watched the car carrying the child who gave it peaches going farther and farther away, and it sat in the car of the child who stole its peaches.

……

It followed the child who stole its peaches to the city.

It's not like it hasn't been to human cities before.

It’s just that human society is changing with each passing day.

Every time I come here, it still feels full of novelty.

……

It couldn't help but take a walk around the city.

It saw many familiar things.

I also saw more new things.

……

It did not forget the purpose of coming to this city.

……

Its figure is hidden among the lush branches and leaves.

It finished eating a banana it had picked up from the fruit stand.

It was thrown away casually.

The banana peel appeared exactly under the child's feet.

……

The child was completely oblivious to the banana peel that suddenly appeared under his feet.

"what!"

The child exclaimed.

The child who stepped on the banana peel unsurprisingly... fell.

……

It grinned.

Deserve it.

This is the retribution for the child stealing its peaches.

……

It found new joys.

Inflict divine punishment on the child - retribution.

……

Looking at the child's distressed, confused and helpless look, it smiled happily.

……

After getting a positive answer, the child suddenly felt a little embarrassed and uneasy.

He had a bad feeling, as if he had been caught doing something bad.

The child twirled his fingers unconsciously.

"I……"

"I have no idea……"

The child lowered his head.

"I didn't know that was your peach..."
