Capítulo 139: Uchiha's Drop by
Because of the relationship between Uchiha Kagami and Fumori Masaki, Kagami's wife Maki visits once a month and has a friendly relationship with Rimi. When Masaki is present, she will bring Kagami along to deepen the bond between the two families. This time, Maki Uchiha, after giving birth to a daughter and recovering, came to visit Masaki and his wife, accompanied by Kagami and their newborn daughter.
"Ah, what's the name of this wonderful child?" Rimi asked Maki as she held the baby in her arms.
Maki Uchiha smiled and replied, "Her name is Mizuki. A lovely name, isn't it?"
"Yes, it's beautiful." Rimi nodded, looking fondly at the newborn. "It's a pity you had a girl, though. I don't have a son, otherwise we could have arranged a marriage."
"Before we were married, Kagami mentioned something similar to Masaki," Maki responded with a smile. "To be honest, it's a bit of a shame, but being sisters isn't so bad either." She then turned to the two children playing nearby. "Right, Akemi and Akina?"
Rimi's daughters, Akemi and Akina, were both girls as well. Akemi, the eldest, and Akina were born about a month before Mizuki, and both were very healthy, possibly due to the strong bloodline of the Senju clan.
Although Akemi and Akina were less than a year old and couldn't fully understand what Maki meant, they could sense the warmth in her tone and responded with happy babbles.
While the women were busy chatting about their children, Masaki was occupied in the kitchen, with Kagami helping out. Normally, Rimi did most of the cooking, but occasionally Masaki would take over, especially when he wanted to experiment with dishes from other world, something Rimi wasn't particularly fond of making. To the surprise of his family and friends, Masaki's unique cooking had been well-received, and it became a tradition for Rimi to catch up with Maki while Masaki and Kagami took over the kitchen duties.
Hearing the conversation from the kitchen, Masaki whispered to Uchiha Kagami, "She used to be against arranged marriages—said the child should decide for themselves. But now she's warming up to the idea. It's funny how fast things change."
Kagami nodded in understanding. "Women can be like that. Maki and I argue sometimes, but she'll act like nothing happened an hour later. It keeps me on my toes."
Masaki chuckled. "That's how it goes." Then he called out to Rimi, "Hey, show Maki that thing I wrote. She might find it interesting."
"That thing?" Rimi asked. "Are you talking about those wild fantasy stories you wrote?"
"Exactly."
Maki's curiosity piqued. "Fantasy stories? What are they about?"
"They're fairy tales Masaki wrote," Rimi explained. "They're a collection of imaginative stories he's been working on. He says he'll read them to Akemi and Akina when they're older."
Maki smiled. "That sounds interesting. Can I take a look?"
"I'll grab it," Rimi said, heading to the back room.
While they waited, Kagami looked at Masaki. "You really wrote something like that?"
"Yes," Masaki replied. "I believe children's education starts young. By the time they go to the ninja academy, it's a bit late."
Kagami looked skeptical. "But fairy tales? What could those teach?"
"You'll see. But let Maki read it first," Masaki teased, returning his attention to the meal.
A few moments later, Rimi returned with a stack of papers and handed them to Maki. "Here it is."
Maki eagerly flipped through the pages. While Kagami continued helping with the meal, he kept glancing at his wife. Her expressions of surprise, delight, and contemplation made him more curious about the content of the stories.
Before long, the meal was ready, and everyone sat down to eat. As they began, Kagami couldn't hold back his curiosity any longer. "Maki, what's the story about?"
"In short, they're little stories with life lessons behind them," Maki explained. "They're entertaining, much simpler than the noble family's classic texts. I think children will enjoy them and easily understand the morals."
"That's great," Kagami said thoughtfully. "Starting education at a young age makes sense."
"But what really caught my attention were some of the things mentioned in the stories," Maki added. "Things Rimi said seemed unbelievable."
"Exactly," Satomi said, nodding.
"What things?" Kagami asked, now even more intrigued.
Maki handed him the manuscript. "There are these strange devices in the stories, like steel carriages that can move on their own, gadgets for long-distance communication, and metal boxes that can show images from faraway places."
Kagami's eyes widened as he read. "Is this even possible?"
Masaki smiled. "It's all fantasy for now, but I hope one day these things will become reality."
"Impossible," Maki said, shaking her head. "Those things sound like pure imagination."
"It's too far-fetched," Rimi agreed.
"It's not entirely impossible," Masaki countered. "Look at the Yamanaka clan's Mind Transmission technique. It allows communication within a certain range, right? Now imagine if we could extend that range—say, by using chakra-infused metals to carry the signals over long distances."
"You mean the chakra metals from the Land of Wind?" Kagami asked, remembering the discussions around those resources.
Masaki nodded. "Exactly. If we could find a way to connect chakra across vast distances, we could achieve what now seems impossible."
The conversation delves deeper into Masaki's vision for future chakra technology and how his fairy tales are meant to inspire future generations to explore these ideas. He discusses the challenges, the potential for funding, and how he plans to publish his stories as a way to plant seeds of innovation. Kagami offers his help in finding reliable merchants to support the publishing of these stories, understanding the long-term impact they could have on both education and the future of Konoha.
