[BOOK 4] The demon's generation

Chapter 4 - Transfer student

Riko Hatake's POV

I managed to level up Evil eyes.

DING*

『Skill proficiency reached. 『Jagan lv1』 became 『 Jagan lv2』』

But these eyes are different from Shiraori the spider.

I do not have the 『Title: Ruler of perseverance』 after all.

And that difference is the fact that these eyes do not have any abilities at the moment and are only available to incur my Haki through them.

Even though I would be able to buy Evil eye's sub-skills later, I’m still not there yet.

Due to having the Jagan on both eyes, I can’t let anyone see my eyes or that’ll freak them out.

Therefore, I closed my eyes as now I rely on 『Universal Detect』 to see.

「Riko Hatake… 9 years old.」

I announced to the class.

Yes, this is the same class that the canon characters are in.

I'm at loss here…

「E-eto… isn’t there anything else, Riko-chan.」

This is voiced out by Shino-sensei.

I turned my head on him.

At the same time, confusing everyone why I closed my eyes when I give him my attention.

Even though they were looking at me with awe just earlier…

「…none.」

I replied thus.

That escalated quickly.

Now then, Shino- I mean, sensei brought us outside.

Later on, Konohamaru also arrived.

And he demonstrated the summoning Jutsu.

。
。
。

「Summoning Jutsu cannot be used without a contract with the Summoning Animal signed in blood. But once the contract is made, you can summon the animal anytime, anywhere from their world.」

Konohamaru explained.

To which, Shino-sensei adds.

「Do you understand, Boruto Uzumaki?」

「So, if I write his name there, can summon the frog too?」

This is obviously, Boruto's line.

Yup, this is boring.

Go to school he said.

Treat it as having fun he said.

I've decided, there would be a need for a bribe if Kakashi wants to make me go to school tomorrow.

Everything somehow ends up with the girls arguing with the boys.

「Anyway, don’t do anything childish.」

Boruto gets a little angry at this.

「How are we childish?」

「There you go… Getting all riled up. That’s childish. 」

「What did you say!?」

「Hn!」

Maa~ their arguments are also boring so…

POOF*

「「Eh?」」

White smoke covered my hands.

As it dispersed, revealing a normal katana manifesting itself from the scroll.

Now that I look around with my closed eyes, their attention has turned at me.

「Sensei… success」

I stated.

Humu… I should’ve stayed silent, because…

With visible comical tears coming out from his visor, he pats my head.

「You are a good kid huh, Riko-chan」

This brought the others and even myself to sweatdropped.

。
。
。

Sigh* this much stuffs happened today, it won’t get any worse than this…

。
。
。

It does get worse…

「Hey! Wait a minute! 」

Boruto shouted at the female Uchiha who just bought the last Yakisoba bread.

「The early bird gets the worm.」

Sarada stated.

「Then I have a right to that too!」 (Boruto)

「Normally, if you were really a man, you’d defer to a lady.」 (Sarada)

To this, Boruto retorts.

「Sure, if you were a normal girl...」

And successfully gained Sarada’s anger.

「What do you mean by that?!」

Due to Boruto’s and Sarada's lover's quarrel, somehow, it ends with the whole class building collapsing.

I'm not joining in this childish war of course…

My classmates are just chaotic…

Sigh…

After school, I dashed out leaving before any of my classmates could do a thing.

「Well, how's school today? 」

Kakashi asked cheerfully.

To which I answer.

「…no more…」

Kakashi raised an eyebrow.

「What happened to you? 」

「Chaotic classmates…」

「… No, I mean right now. Are you not feeling well? 」

Ah, so that’s what he’s asking about…

Sigh* communication disorder is quite bothersome…

「Communication disorder.」

I can’t even say “I” loudly…

This “Playful” skill is not playful at all!

Kakashi was speechless at this.

He then asks again.

「You were fine yesterday… how did you…? 」

「Skill」

I replied thus.

「Sigh*」

Don’t- DON’T SIGH AT ME! I want to sigh at myself, I talked like a Robotic baby!

Nai wa…

There should be a telepathy skill, right?

《The skill 『Telepathy』lv.1 costs 100 skill points to learn. Would you like to learn this skill? 》

I have 250 points for now so…

Yes!

‘Is this better?’

I announced my thoughts.

This made Kakashi flinched a little.

「Telepathic communications? How do you even acquire these skills so suddenly? 」

He muttered.

To which I responded with,

「Skill」

He stared at me for a while before opening his mouth again.

「…And your eyes? 」

Humu… 「Skill」

His face turned wryly before sighing.

「We’ll leave it at that for now, I guess…」

。
。
。

Now that I realized, there are actually Monsters and Majins in the village more than I thought there would be.

Demi-humans like beast folk and elves are in this place and the majority of them seemed to be Magic or Chakra researchers.

Which is why I would rather escape them for now…

But that seems impossible.

In front of the opened door,

「You must be Rokudaime-sama’s daughter, can you tell us where papa is?」

Such came from the female elf's mouth.

She has long blond hair and shining blue eyes. She wore a lab coat with a name tag that simply indicates that she’s a researcher.

‘Kakashi, we have guests.’

I stated through telepathy.

I know Kakashi already figured this woman is coming. If not, he won’t appear with a POOF* while smiling like a scripted action.

「Ah! Rokudaime-sama! I'm sorry to bother you at this time, do you have a moment? 」

「Yes, of course.」

It turns out they felt a burst of magicules a week ago and it end up leading to this house's direction.

Which they concluded that the Rokudaime Hokage may have had trouble handling his Magic eye.

To which,

「Ahh I see, so that’s how it is… I'm sorry for worrying you guys…」

「Since Rokudaime-sama has the largest Magicules reserve, we may have thought Rokudaime-sama evolved by the Voice of the world, but that’s good to know that it wasn’t the case. Sometimes, evolution would leave the individual penetrable after all…」

There are more chit-chats. Since I'm bored, I decided to go back upstairs.

I feel like tomorrow could actually get any worse…

。
。
。

Which it does.

Nai wa…

「Let me introduce our new transfer students. They’ll be studying with us from today…」

Shino-sensei stated thus, indicating the two boys beside him.

「My name is Mitsuki. I’m from Hidden Sound Village. 」

The boy with a kimono stated. He has tousled white-blue hair, thin eyebrows, golden eyes, and a pale complexion

And next to him, is another boy in casual clothes with tied long black hair. He has long eyelashes, deep blue eyes, and a slightly feminine-looking face.

TTE-! A Miyamura!?

「Kuro, I'm from the Hidden Void Village.」

Oh, never mi-

KOKUUGAKURE!?

Which means-! This guy is...

「It’s only natural that you are all surprised. Otogakure was established by a Shinobi whose goal was to destroy the Konohagakure.

A similar event happened with Kokuugakure and our sides. However, that was all in the past.

Their stay at our village to represent our new harmonious relationship.」

This guy is not a human.

I'm sure of it.

Looking at his strange Magicules… a dryad? Spirit? No… It’s lower and un versatile so… Demon?

Appraisal…

《Greater Demon LV???》
- Status appraisal failed.

A FIEND!!!

Why would they send a Greater demon here? Can’t they just send goblin or elf or beast man child?

≪Skill Proficiency Reached. Skill『Playful Lv1』became 『 Playful Lv2』≫

≪Skill Proficiency Reached. 『Playful』sub-skill, 『Appraisal Lv2』 Became 『 Appraisal Lv3』≫

≪Skill Proficiency Reached. 『Playful』sub-skill, 『absolute Rationality Lv1』 Became 『 Absolute Rationality Lv2』≫

≪Skill Proficiency Reached. 『Playful』sub-skill, 『reversed Aphasia EX Lv1』 Became 『 Reversed Aphasia EX Lv2』≫

A-re? It has 3 sub-skills?

No, rather…

APHASIA!?

SO THAT’S HOW I GOT THESE BROKEN SPEECHES!

Oh god… I was diagnosed with ADHD and Dyslexia in my past life, and now I have frinkin Aphasia!?

Nai wa!

「Can I sit here? 」

Ueeh!?

What the-

This Kuro guy surprises me…

「...Yes」

I don’t have time to ponder about it… it seems like their introductions are done.

But what bothers me the most is that why is this guy keeps staring at me.

Weirdo…
