Monster Tea Party

Chapter 5484 Old Problem

I have no idea at all.

……

The woodcutter wasn't even sure if his brother left voluntarily?
If it's not voluntary...

The woodcutter clenched his fists.

He quickened his pace.

……

"Did you find your brother?"

The woman said with some certainty.

Right in the mountains.

……

The woodcutter nodded.

Not surprisingly, the woman guessed this quickly.

"Ah."

"I heard my brother's voice."

“Then, I found my brother.”

....
The woman smiled with relief.

"Great."

It seems that my younger brother was found relatively easily.

It didn't take too many twists and turns.

……

"Is my brother okay?"

the woman asked.

In fact, this was just a subconscious question from the woman.

I didn't think something happened to my brother.

But then...

The woman was stunned.

She noticed that something was wrong with the woodcutter's expression.

Her heart skipped a beat.

"younger brother……"

The woman unconsciously lowered her voice and asked, "What happened?"

……

The woodcutter frowned.

A trace of annoyance passed across his face.

"It's still the same problem."

……

Old problem?
My brother's old problem?
Oh ~
After a brief moment of stunned silence, a look of realization appeared on the woman's face.

"...a black monster..."

……

The woodcutter nodded.

That's right.

It's a black monster.

"My brother saw a black monster..."

……

"He saw it again?"

The woman couldn't help but exclaim.

"Hasn't he been seen for a long time?"

I still can't sleep or eat because of this.

……

"Ah."

The woodcutter nodded.

So when I finally saw it, I chased after it regardless of everything.

……

"My brother chased me all the way into the forest..."

The woodcutter grinned, "My choice is correct."

……

The woman also smiled.

Should we say the woodcutter is lucky?

Or is it the tacit understanding between the two brothers?

Well.

This doesn't seem to be a tacit understanding between the two brothers.

After all, my brother is following the path of the black monster...

Speaking of tacit understanding...

Uh……

Should we say that there is some tacit understanding between the woodcutter and the black monster?

……

"only……"

The woodcutter did not laugh.

He didn't even bother to think about his luck at the time...

After all, the scene that came into view was too shocking.

His always gentle and bookish brother...

He was actually kicking and slamming a big tree.

Still yelling.

Like crazy.

……

To be honest, for a few seconds, the woodcutter was a little scared.

But soon, the woodcutter reacted...

He rushed forward immediately.

……

"younger brother……"

The woman looked surprised.

To be honest, it was hard for her to apply the behavior described by the woodcutter to her brother.

This was totally inconsistent with the impression her brother gave her.

……

"Surprised?"

The woodcutter was not surprised by the woman's reaction.

“I was surprised, too.”

"I almost thought I had the wrong person."

But how could he have mistaken someone?
That's his younger brother.

His brother... is going crazy...

……

"younger brother……"

The woman squeezed her hands, her face full of worry, "Is he okay?"

……

The woodcutter pursed his lips.

"……Hard to say."

……

what?
The woman was stunned.

She was a little surprised that she got this answer.

She thought...

Since the woodcutter was able to sleep peacefully yesterday, my brother should be fine...

……

"Didn't I give him three months?"

The woodcutter smiled bitterly.

If he promised, he would certainly fulfill it. …

Hey……

The woman was a little confused.

what?
……

The woodcutter let out a slow breath.

"My brother explained his behavior because the black monster ignored him."

“He’s unwilling to accept this.”

"I kicked the tree because I wanted to attract the black monster's attention."

"I couldn't help but yell..."

"...Anyway..."

"The root cause of all my brother's abnormal behavior is... the black monster."

"I was naturally angry."

……

The woman nodded.

Of course she understood the woodcutter's anger.

Who to change...

Who wouldn’t be angry?
My good brother was harmed by a so-called black monster and he is no longer like his usual brother...

How could the woodcutter, as the elder brother, not be angry?

……

“…He firmly believed in the reality of the black monster.”

“He trusts his own eyes more.”

The woodcutter shook his head.

People.

As expected, I still believe in myself more.

Even if your opinion goes against everyone else's.

I still tend to believe in myself.

……

"I've told him countless times..."

The woodcutter couldn't help but get a little excited, "Except for him, no one saw the black monster."

"What black monster?"

"That's all false!"

"It's his own hallucination!"

……

"But he just doesn't trust all of us..."

"He's just like possessed by a demon!"

……

"Master."

The woman reached out and patted the woodcutter on the back.

"Do not be angry."

……

The woodcutter's breathing was a little rapid.

He exhaled slowly.

……

After a while, he smiled apologetically at the woman and said, "I was too excited."

……

"I understand."

The woman smiled.

The woodcutter cared too much about the young scholar.

Yes.

My younger brother who grew up with me...

He is such an outstanding younger brother who has a bright future ahead of him if nothing unexpected happens...

As a brother, how can I not care?

……

only……

"My brother looks good-tempered, but he's actually very stubborn."

The woman advised the woodcutter, "You should talk to him nicely."

Don't confront each other head-on.

This will only make things deviate further and further from the direction you want.

……

"……Um."

The woodcutter nodded.

Of course, he knew what the women knew.

How could he not know that the boy was as stubborn as a donkey...

Clashing heads will never solve the problem.

and so……

The woodcutter's mouth widened.

"I was smart for once."

……

what?
The woman was quite surprised.

woodcutter……

Also trying to be smart?
She didn't look down on the woodcutter.

This has nothing to do with whether a person is smart or not.

The main thing is that the woodcutter is a very straightforward person.

Be straightforward in everything you do.

There are no twists and turns in my mind.

How can you be smart?

……

Finally, a smile appeared on the woodcutter's face.

"I put on a play for my brother..."

……

what?
The woman was even more surprised.

exercise?

A woodcutter?
……

The woodcutter vividly described the moment when he had a sudden inspiration.

"...My brother thought I really saw the rabbit that he couldn't see..."

"His face turned pale."

"I thought there was something wrong with my brain..."

……

“You’re pretty scary.”

The woman imagined it for a moment and felt goosebumps all over her body.

……

The woodcutter curled his lips, "The younger brother's performance is even more frightening."

"I'll just be here for a moment."

"You're still pretending."

"younger brother……"

The woodcutter sighed deeply.

He didn't want to say anything anymore.

……

After a brief pause, the woman nodded.

That's true.

……

"I'll let my brother experience for himself how we feel."

The woodcutter expressed his thoughts.
