"Carbon Monoxide is undetectable; you can't see it, can't smell it, can't taste it. But it slowly works against you until you eventually give up. And all my life, I've been suffering from the carbon monoxide of society, except everyone can see it, they can hear it, they know it's happening; but no-one does a thing, apart from say I should just give up already, so maybe I should just listen."
People say a lot of things, and it's when you start to listen, that you start to believe it's true. But what are you supposed to believe when everyone tells you one thing, but then someone else tells you the opposite?
Are you supposed to believe the majority? Or the one person that tells you otherwise?
Does it change if you believe the only way you can protect that person, is by listening to everyone else?
And does it change if you're in love with that one person?

Kanda Kyoichi transmigrated to Konoha and became a temporary instructor at the Ninja Academy. Fortunately, he awakened the Mentor System.
By teaching others, he could earn rewards.
Thus began Kyoichi's career as a "teacher" in the ninja world.
Shisui: "Sensei's unique interpretation of the Will of Fire has given the Uchiha Clan a true sense of direction!"
Asuma: "The essence of the jade lies in protecting the people, with the advanced leading the way for the less experienced. Only then can Konoha become stronger!"
Kakashi: "He's my life mentor. He transformed Konoha!"
...
Years later, in the memoirs of Kyoichi, now the Hokage, he wrote:
"I honestly just wanted to be a life mentor!"
