I finished washing dishes and got to class, sitting with Naruto as we listened to Iruka teach everyone math. I finished that day's problems and took out the kanji book, taking a pen to my note I began to practise.
I practised during lunch and even in other classes. Naruto asked me why I wanted to do this but I just told him it's because I wanted to get better handwriting. The last class of the day for us was physical training, we had to run twenty laps and do other exercises, such as pull ups and push ups. This worked out well for me;
Ping!
You gained +1 VIT!
VIT- 9 Ping!
You have gained +2 DEX!
DEX- 4 Apparently pull ups and push ups counts as exercises dealing with dexterity. On another note, I really need to work harder on my DEX, it's really low. Disturbance style involves a lot of movement, the more flexible I am the more effective it can be.
After classes I told Naruto I needed to do my kanjis so we parted ways. I promised we could play tomorrow. I went back to my room and practised with such focus that the matron herself had come and remind me to eat dinner.
Her REP score had gone upto 5 now, guess she finally began to like me after I began to wash the dishes regularly. Either way it was nice to not be hated.
My eavesdropping skill leveled up;
Easdropping, Lv- 8 (3%) Your ability to listen in someone else's conversation without them being aware of it. This is a very important skill for a ninja to possess for information gathering.
Range: 17 feet (100% accuracy) -10% accuracy for every additional feet That was nice. I finished my dinner and washed the dishes before going back to my room and continuing my work. But as it grew darker I realised something, tonight was a New moon, meaning I would have no light to practise under! Never mind writing, I can barely even see my own hands!
But just as I was about to throw in the towel Ksume, the matron, walked in with a lite candle. She didn't say a word to me, instead she placed the candle in my room and left, closing the door behind her.
I blinked, 'did she...did she just do something nice for me?' I really couldn't believe it...maybe I was a bit of a dick to her….whatever, she hates Naruto because of the fox, she's not a saint, but at last she isn't a bad person.
I spent that entire night working on my writing, while at the same time practising the leaf concentration exercise, by morning I leveled that up by a level, which hasn't happened in some time;
Leaf concentration exercise, Lv- 9 (12%) By keeping a leaf stuck on your forehead thanks to chakara you now only help with your chakra control exercise but also improve your concentration.
Uses: 15 CP per minute Leaves to hold up- 2 +1 INT while active +1 CC permanent bonus per level CC- 16 So far my kanji wasn't...well excellent, but it was decent enough. I wrote for a bit longer before I had to go for breakfast and do my normal morning routine.
After school that day I let Naruto decided what we should do. Surprisingly he wanted to practise throwing my kunai in the training yard.
Thud!
Ping! Your skill has leveled up!
Kunai techniques, Lv- 4 (10%) Your ability to handle a kunai accurately. Aquaracy- 25% Bonus- 2% to DMG I smiled as I swiped the box away, walk to the target and removed my kunai. I tossed it to Naruto who caught before aiming and throwing it at the target as well, this time hitting the third outer circle.
I whistled, "not bad," Naruto took out the kunai and tossed it to me. I took at and threw it, it landed in the fourth circle, I clicked me teeth, "damn it."
"Relax Yami, you can't be amazing at everything," Naruto chuckled as he caught the kunai, aimed and threw it at the target. I whistled, "nice shot," it had hit the second circle. He took it out and threw it to me. I aimed and threw it with all my might, hitting bullseyes, "heck yeah!"
Naruto snorted, "pure luck," he caught the kunai and threw it, it didn't even hit the target, "god damn it!"
I chuckled, "you were saying!"
"Shut your mouth Yami! You cheated!"
"Oh? And how did I do that?" "I don't know you just did!"
"Oh please, just admit it that you suck."
"I can do anything you can do!"
"But I can do it better than you," I winked. Naruto blinked, "what does that...hey!"
I chuckled, "please Naruto don't feel bad, it's just-" Thud thud thud!
Naruto and I turned to see three more kunais sticking out of the bull's eye of target we were using. We followed the line of impact and found Sasuke standing behind us quite a distance away.
"Hey teme! We were using that!" Naruto cried out.
Sasuke ignored him, walking up to the target and removing the kunais tossing me mine. He looked at me, "I want a rematch."
I blinked, "ah, well-"
Ping!
Quest alert!
Have a rematch with Sasuke! Rewards:
+50 EXP Fauiler:
Possible broken bone Do you accept?
Y/N?
I blinked, 'with this I can level up! And if I do my chakra control will finally go up by 2% for every 10 CC I have, wait...I have 16 right now, if I leave it up to 20….' I opened my my menu and put 4 stat points into CC making it 20!
CC- 20 I closed the menu and smiled, "you're on!" I hit yes and followed him to the taijutsu ring. I looked around, finding no one else there right now to stop us. Sasuke and I stepped into the ring with Naruto as the referee, again.
