One More Chance Given(naruto)

Ch 40 Leaving Dojo-1

When I woke up next morning, I discovered some tear marks across the room. I was slightly horrified. Then, I remember that I successfully practiced the ancient technique last night.

These marks were from my sudden increase in mental energy. Fortunately, my control was good enough to not cause major damage or any other trouble.

I guess, I will have to find a secluded and open space for my next practice.

----

I went to dojo. I sat down at the chair in classroom.

In the afternoon, I got up after teaching kids and started wandering around the dojo. It's been two and half year since I started teaching here.

I felt a little sentimental when I look around. But I have decided to leave the dojo.

There is nothing more, I can learn here. I also want to do something meaningful. Last time near death encounter let me opened my eyes. That there is no place perfectly safe here in naruto world.

Anytime accident could happen. I choose missions very wisely but still accident happened.

So, rather than always try to remain on safe side,  I would start taking some risk atleast. And start to do something meaningful.

Till now, I never felt much attachment to this world or the people here.

But after living here in iron country, I also started to change. I think, I am also getting infected with all these grand samurai lifestyle and motto to maintain peace of world.

Although, I cannot do anything about war and constant fighting. Neither I have ambition something of that sort. But living here in dojo while teaching poor kids, I started to empathize with their situation. So, I want to do something in that direction.

As I was walking aimlessly, I saw fourth brother reading book in the common hall.

I said "Ohio(good morning)" then asked "are you not practicing that unique pose method today?"

Fourth said "Teacher told us to take a break for few days. And assess any changes we perceive in ourselves."
"He also told us that if we feel any benefit then we could continue on our own."

I said"finally, you can quit that boring exercise." He looked up to me and we both smiled.

Then I looked at the cover of book, I was surprised because it was my own work.

"Brother, although I am flattered but this math book is for elementary kids. Why are you reading it?"

"oh, this" Fourth looked at me then said "you know, you did a huge favor to many people. Till now, if a villager wants to learn something than he had to go to dojos or small private tuition center operated by nobles."

"Now atleast common people can buy this type of excellent material very cheaply and can learn on their own."

I smiled and nodded "I initially wrote this educational book to teach students at our dojo. Students started liking it. And some of the parents also bought it from me."

"I decided to publish it then. In just one year, It got quickly famous in all the countries that now publisher is telling me to write more books like this."

Fourth asked eagerly "will you?"

"Initially, I was hesitating because it takes a lot of time and profit was almost zero. Because mostly farmer were its customers so I willingly sold it in cheap price."
"but now it sold on such a large quantity that it has become profitable."

I told him reason embarrassingly because I don't want him to think that I am some sort of noble soul.

"So, now I might think of writing some other books."

After talking to fourth brother, I went back home a little early. Because I need to prepare venue to practice - secret technique. I don't want accidentally damage my house again or demolish it.

------------

For the next few days, I lived normal life.

My main goal was to better control the third step of secret technique. I wanted to cut off connection with ether world without causing too much fluctuation. Sudden increase in mental energy is quite dangerous for anyone around me.

I could easily squeeze a man into paste. But good thing is, I am able to control fluctuation within 3 meter. Probably in another 6-8 months, I will be able to complete all three steps without anyone noticing anything in my vicinity.

Apart from that I was also making my future plans.

So far I have concluded that, I needed at least half-hokage level strength to freely roam around the world and to be able to escape when in dangerous situation.

I am now 13 year old. I estimated that it would take 2-4 more years to reach that level of strength.

So, I have almost made a rough plan for next 3 years. I just need to prepare some certain things

One more interesting thing, which I never really thought is that I have become adult. I can marry legally now. Because of high mortality rate, peasants and samurais get married before 15 and  ninjas before their 17th or 18th birthday.

--------

One more month has passed.....

Today is the day, I would be resigning from Dojo. I have already told fourth brother about it.

I entered the main hall. Today, except big brother all were present. Big brother's training hasn't completed so he is still in inner hall.

I bend down on my knees and gave deep bow to Sensei.

Sensei smiled and nodded to me, "So, you have decided."

I looked up to sensei and nodded.

Sensei motioned fourth brother.

Fourth brother came up to me smiled and gave a long box.

It was very ordinary looking box. I opened it, then I was surprised. It was a very ordinary looking sword.

But in last two years being here in dojo, I learned a very few things. That is how to be low-key. The more ordinary it looks, more amazing it is. I looked at the signature at the lower end of the handle. This sword, I can never afford it atleast for now.

I looked up "This..."

Second brother came and said "keep it, it is parting gift from big brother and us three."

I looked at all three of them. I took a deep breadth. I didn't make any pretense. I accepted it then said deeply "thank you, if you need me in future I would not hesitate."

Although, I am very rich but in last few years I came to know that not everything can be bought by money. Like material used for this sword and the craftsman who made it.

So, this gift was truly very precious.

I then got up and handed a envelop to sensei.

Sensei got puzzled "what is this?"

"This is an invitation."
"I want to open a free university to educate poor people."

To be continued....
