It was a long night, the moon disappeared, the stars disappeared, it was the dark night before dawn.

"How are you?" I asked worriedly.

"Master, I'm much better now." Risa Ono responded, "I feel that I'm completely different from before. I have huge energy in my body, but I can't fully control it. I need to stay in seclusion for a while."

"In retreat?" I was a little surprised. This should be a word that belongs to warriors.

"Yes, Master, I think I will be able to break through the state of the Zhongnin this time and become the youngest Shangnin in the family." Ono Risa said excitedly, "This will be the greatest glory of the family in the past thirty years. I will explain my relationship with the master with the elders. I believe that the elders will agree with my decision. It is my honor to be able to serve a great power."

"Congratulations, but don't call me 'master'." I corrected, "It's the twenty-first century now, not the period of slavery. You are free, we are equal."

"No, I have already swore to Amaterasu's Great God. If I violate the oath, I will end up miserably." Ono Risa said nervously, "If the master doesn't want me, there will be no choice but to apologize for death."

Is that great god really effective? As an atheist, I find it hard to understand, but this girl is threatened by death, so it’s really hard for me to refuse. Are these ninjas just mindless?

"Okay, but I'm a monster from China. You know that in mainland China, everyone is equal and a harmonious society." I lied, "So you don't have to be so respectful. We can be friends. I want to get along with each other in a relaxed manner."

"I understand what you mean, master." Ono Risa said respectfully.

"It's up to you, let's deal with Miss Murong's affairs!" I said helplessly, "Why haven't she woken up yet?"

Risa Ono stood up and began to check Murong Shui's body. I didn't dare to touch her body casually in case the sharp nails on my hands hurt her, but I could hear her heartbeat and breathing, which made me feel much more relieved.

"That's because there was a cold aura in Miss Murong's body colliding with demon power, which made her body look like a battlefield." Risa Ono explained, "The demon power is transforming her body, but the cold aura is constantly stopping it, so she can't wake up yet."

"That should be her own cultivation." I guessed, "If she wakes up, will we tell her the truth?"

"I don't know much about Miss Murong," said Ono Risa cautiously. "If she was an extremely righteous person, I think she would not be able to accept this fact, but if she didn't tell her, she would be in danger. As a monster, it is still difficult for the public to accept it in this world."

"Then why do you still want to become a monster?" I asked in confusion.

"That's because I am a ninja myself. In the eyes of ordinary Japanese people, ninjas are an alternative existence." Ono Risa smiled bitterly, "And I need powerful strength to revitalize my family, so I took the liberty to use the power of my master. In Japanese mythology, monsters are not all evil, and many gods appear in the form of monsters."

Some monsters in China are also kind, such as "Journey to the West" and "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio". Of course, they are just ghosts in the story. Monsters in reality may not be so easy to get along with. After all, humans and monsters are two different races.

"Then let's tell her!" I decided.

This is also impossible. To be honest, I don’t want to see her going crazy after knowing the truth, but if she doesn’t tell her, she will be known when she goes to check her body, and she should be able to feel it herself. For the sake of her safety, she can only risk telling her.

"The demonic power in her body began to stabilize and gradually weaken. She might be about to wake up." Risa Ono said in surprise.

"I'm afraid it's because it's dawn." I looked at the first ray of dawn in the east and said calmly.

I also feel that when the light comes, the inexplicable restlessness in my body calms down, and my body gradually returns to normal. The last time I was with Mu Shanshan and didn't pay attention because I fell asleep, the feeling this time was particularly obvious. When the sun rose from the east, I turned back into a human form.

"I'll go down the mountain to find a piece of clothing." I said in a hurry.

I ran down the mountain naked and rushed. There were two large buses at the foot of the mountain. I opened the door and found no clothes. I only found some plastic film and cardboard boxes. These were the packaging of the utensils we carried to the mountain last night. I wrapped the plastic film on my body, blocked the outside with cardboard paper and ran up the mountain again.

It was this time that Murong Shui woke up and was listening to Ono Risa telling the story of what happened last night. I couldn't help but slow down, afraid of encountering her rampage.

"In other words, the three of us have become monsters now?" Murong Shui asked calmly after hearing this.

"Yes, the master used demon power to activate the true energy in your body and resurrected you." Ono Risa confirmed, "But I can't judge your current state. The demonic energy in your body has temporarily lurked, and may be more active in the night, especially on the full moon night."

"Come here, I won't hit you." Murong Shui said to me with a calm expression.

"Well, I was eager to save people last night. I was really sorry if I didn't get your consent." I said embarrassedly.

"You dead monster, you have been lying to me all the time. Let's see if I won't beat you to death!"

As soon as I approached Murong Shui, she began to get angry. An ice sword condensed in her hand and stabbed towards me. A cold and cold air invaded my body. I hurriedly jumped away, ran away, and started a chase on the barren mountain. During the running, the cardboard boxes and plastic film on my body fell down and turned into their original appearance.

This crazy woman is so cruel.

"Are you finished?" I said annoyed.

"You lied to Qingleng first, and then lied to me. I said why Qingleng relied on you so much. It turns out that you are a monster." Murong Shui accused, "Look at me, I won't get rid of your scourge today."

"You are also a monster now." I reminded.

"It's not your fault." Murong Shui said angrily.

"Things can't be changed anymore, you have to face the reality." I shouted.

Murong Shui stopped and stared at the distant mountains in a daze. The ice sword in her hand gradually melted, and the rising sun shone on her face, with a touching beauty.
