Konoha, Sawano Tatsuya's home.
Tatsuya's POV.
Four years has passed since Kyuubi's incident, and my mother is still sleeping. A lot of things happened during this time.
A lot of people helped Itachi and I in our training.
Gai-sensei made our taijutsu style top notch. A year ago, he made us wear weights saying that it won't affect our growing anymore. We remplaced it with gravity seals because it was more convenient and with Itachi's and my knowledge on fuinjutsu, it was quite easy to do it.
Kakashi-san mainly helped Itachi practicing ninjutsu and using his sharingan. But he didn't have the time to train with us because of his ambu missions and his own training. So he came when he could, like his father. This one helped us on kenjutsu.
Isshin-sama became a doctor and somtimes visited us to improve our speed and reflexes. Her wife, Masaki-san, became friend with Mikoto-san and Hana-san, Itachi and Kaito's mothers. She helped us with our shuriken-jutsu training. She always told us to aim, no the target, but its trajectory. It was hard but funny to learn.
All those people helped us on theory. But the real experience came from our missions. Indeed, a little time after our first B mission, we asked the lord 3rd to do more infiltration and assassination mission. He was sceptical at the beginning fearing to lose two futur pillars of Konoha but accepted when Sakumo-san volunteers to accompagny us.
Shinichi and Yuki-san did not want to do those kinds of missions so they did not follow us but we always kept in touch.
We improved greatly thanks to me always leveling up, and Itachi's sharingan to help him catch up the gap. The perfect duo.
During our missions, I gained Stealth and Appraisal. The last one, I got it directly at level max. Then I learned three things from this.
[ Skill : Appraisal
Appraisal allows the player to the value of an item, an object or a person. It also determines its quality.
Restriction : all the objects, items or people of the worlds where the architect went. ]
First thing, there are different worlds. I am now sure of that. Secondly, the architect is in link with my power. And he found a way to travel between those worlds.
And lastly, when I checked Itachi and my mother's status, I found out they were affected with an incurable disease, of course different from each others. There was no precision for my mother, but for Itachi, he has lungs illness. When Isshin-san diagnosed him, he said it was an unknown disease even in his town where he came from. He cannot cure it for the moment, but can only slow it down. Fortunately, we found it at its early stage.
Three years after, we joined the ambu thanks to Kakashi-san who recommended us. Of course, we joined his team as he was the captain. We learned infiltration, assassination, and patience. Perfect for us, we assimilated all the experience we could have.
We also had to monitor Konoha and what we discovered was… Heartbreaking.
*Flashback*
I was walking down a street with Itachi when we saw kids playing together. Suddenly, a girl stumbled as she was running and bumped into a uchiha working as a cop.
« I'm sorry mister, I didn't want to bump into you »
« What did you do you brat ? Did you think I'm a couch ? I am from the uchiha clan and i'm dirty ! You will regret it ! » When he was about to punch the girl, Itachi took his arm and stopped his movement.
« What are you thinking you are doing kid… ». Of course he recognized the patriarch's son of his own clan.
« I'm sorry Itachi-sama. Why are you interfering ? I was gently teaching this girl a lesson ».
« Why did you chose violence ? » Itachi asked calmly.
« Because it is the only way for her to understand. »
« Get off my sight and I don't want to see something like this again. Is this clear ? »
« Yes, Itachi-sama ! »
I saw the boy left angrily but could not say anything. What if Itachi decided to tell this to his father ?
*End*
Naruto, Sasuke, Kaito and Ichigo grew up together like brothers. We always put clones to take care of them and assist their mothers but when we had time, it was our real body. We loved to play with them, but hated when we had to change their diapers at the beginning. The mothers always laughed so it made Itachi and I happy.
Naruto and Kaito always pranked their brothers. Sasuke was like an emo guy wanted to be mysterious like Itachi and Ichigo, was like a Nara. Always lazing around, sleep, and eat. They always quarreled but they loved each other.
Naruto doesn't have parents but he still had the love every kids supposed to have. Sometimes he asked us who were his parents, and everytime it broke our heart to tell that he is not old and strong enough to know them. We were always here for him, and he always responded with a smile. Especially in this moment. We try to spend most of our time here because we are going on a mission I asked. Yes, I just became level 50 and today, we are going to Roran city, in the land of Wind, to search for my father. Of course, I also had another reason, the black key I received. Reach level 50 to have a 'job'.

*Flashback*
« So you want to go to Roran city ? Why ? » asked the Hokage.
« I want to find my father. The last time he was seen was there. I want to find clues. » I declared.
« Humm… Well, you are strong enough, but I will assign Sakumo and Kakashi with you because they already have the knowledge of this place. »
« Thank you Hokage-sama » Itachi and I said.
*End*
The travel to the land of Wind was quick. I could not hide my excitement. 'I'm a step closer to reach you, Dad !'
…
We arrived at the place easly. We used to work in ambu section after all. The place was a kingdom. The architecture was new for me, with impressive building. It was a gathering of huge towers. We were in the desert but the buildings made the wind flow rapidly so it was not hot at all.
Everything was normal but, there was no one. Not a sigle person is living here. Why is it so clean if there is not a single person to clean up ? I don't know.
We decided to divide our group by two and explore the city.
Kakashi-san and his father went to the Garden of Ryumyaku while Itachi and I went to the Roran Palace. Why ? Because there was a purple aura only I could see. It was the first thing I saw when we approached the city.
The portal which lead to the entrance of the palace was emitting the purple aura.
« Please becareful Tatsuya... » said Itachi.
« Of course, wait for me. » I responded.
I took the key from my inventory and came near the portal.
When I passed it, everything was dark. The walls where I thought were clean were now deteriorated. I didn't have the time to look around that a sword tried to hit me from the back. I shunpo behind him and cut his head with my T.S. katana number 4.
[ You have slain a knight ]
'A knight ? Like the stories Masaki-san told the kids before sleeping ? Now that I think of it, the knights protect their kingdoms. So, her stories were real ? Where does the Kurisaki family come from ?'
Then, I saw four knights coming at me. Again, one slah, one death.
[You cannot leave the dongeon until you have cleared it ]
[After the next gate, you will not be able to use your inventory]
'I see… Okay, let's go !'
I entenred the next room. It was a colossal room but I didn't have the time to contemplate as five knights rushed at me. When I was about to kill them, a giant fireball appeared behind them. I dodged it but a man in black with a high level of stealth tried to cut me in two from behind. I jumped 10 meters on the side when 15 arrows went at me. I ran on the wall and went as high as I could and looked from above.
Then a notification appeared.
[The job change quest will begin]
[The longer you last, the more points you can collect that will place you into a higher tier-job.]
[Bonus : the more you kill, the more you gain points.]
[Good luck.]
'Okay so I have to play the time and kill as much as I can. I will simply use my assassination skills. It is the best way to save energy and collect points at the same time.'
I used my stealth skill.
Boom Boom !!
A knight used his sledgehammer to hit me.
'How did they find my position ? Wait, is this because of this man ?' I saw a person with purple aura around him as if he was casting a jutsu for his teamates. Yes, it is because of him that they find me.
I shunpo at his and slashed him but he was protected with knights and archers.
I sighed and retreated back.
'Appraisal'
[Skill : Appraisal
Mage lv.40
Skills :
Fire ball
Stealth detection (AOE) ].
'So he only has two spells and I can't look at his stats.'
…
'There are 20 knights, 15 archers and 10 mages. When I kill one, another one spawn meters away with the same skills as the dead body. The mages have great power but no mobility. Whereas, archers have great mobility, they attack fast but without big damages. And those knights. They protect the mages and reduce the weak spots I can take as advantage. What a good team.'
…
It's been three hours, my katana broke, I only used knights' swords but they broke easly and, I'm at my limit. No more chakra, and my body won't respond me anymore.
I saw ten arrows coming at me
'So this is the end' I thought.
« Is this just all you can do ? »
'Whose there ? Ah… I must be dreaming'
« Didn't you want to protect your family ? »
'Yes I still do'
« Is this just all you can do ? »
'I can't move, I can't move, I can't move, I must move, I have to move, please my body help me !'
« AHHHHHHHHH »
I dodged the arrows, took a sword on the floor. Then, my yin chakra wrap up my sword, I spinned as fast as I could and my energy kill every enemies around me. Then I fell to the ground. I could hear them spawn again.
'Yeah that's my limit...'
[The player cannot move anymore, the quest will end now.]

[Your job is Shadow Lord.]
'Shadow lord ? What is that ?'
