As both the box and light vanish, in their place a white pill lays on his bed.
Before he can pick it up, a small blue screen pops up.
[Ghostly Pill, will allow the user to turn completely invisible in every way, even to the Byakugan, for three hours]
'Damn', he thinks with a wicked grin, 'With this, i can get into the Hokage's Residence and take a peek at the Scroll of Seals, learning the Shadow Clone Jutsu will be extremely helpful for my training'
[Mission: Learn the Shadow Clone Jutsu - Reward: 1000xp]
As he waits for the moon to rise high in the sky and his parents to fall asleep, he opens his window.
After an hour passes, he swallows the pill with a drink of water.
Looking down at his body, he doesn't see anything different but as he looks at the mirror in his room, he sees no reflection.
'Good, time to get to work', running across the rooftops, he quickly realizes his footsteps don't make any noise.
Making it to the Hokage's residence was surprisingly easy, finding a way to enter then walking through the halls was nerve-racking with the thought of what would happen if the Anbu caught him.
Finally finding the scroll in a closed-off room guarded by two jonin, he was able to distract them by smashing a window.
He knew that the distraction would only by him a few minutes but that's all he needed.
Surprisingly, the hand-sign and technique to use the Shadow Clone Jutsu is very simple.

[You have leveled up!]
[You have leveled up!]
[You have ten stat points available]
Swiping the pop-ups away for the moment, he puts the scroll back where it belongs before leaving the Hokage's residence.
After running home, he closes his windows quietly so he doesn't wake up his parents.
Sighing, he runs his hand through his hair, "That was risky but worth it in the end"
'System, how much chakra does a single shadow clone cost?'
[100 Chakra]
'So i can only summon one because if i summon two then I'll collapse due to chakra exhaustion'
'System'

"Holy fucking shit"
