章 1971: Hedlehash, The Sorceress of Parasitic Spirits

-----

Once Meiji stepped out of the room with Kizuato, he was greeted by the rest of his friends there. Truhan and Celica's sizes had been reduced so they could fit inside the house, an innate ability of them, while Palami, Asure, and Raito were also alright, smiling after seeing their old friend.

"Meiji! Are you okay?!" Palami ran towards him, her eyes filled with concern.

"I-I am…" Meiji sighed.

"What happened was crazy, are you sure?" Raito raised an eyebrow. "Becoming a monster and all.."

"Raito! Would you shut up?!" Asure said angrily. "You don't have to remind him of that!"

"M-My bad…" Raito apologized.

"No, it's fine…" Meiji sighed. "Thank you for stopping me… I don't know what had happened to me but, it was dangerous. I couldn't control myself anymore, nor I could even speak. It was hell. Thank you for freeing me from such a curse, everyone."
