Bab 2: Chapter 2
It was in fact quick.
With a flicker of his eyes, the boy looked around.
The bedroom looked huge compared to him. It was as if he had shrunk.
As he was about to wonder, a box appeared in his vision.
•••
Testing... Testing...
Greetings to you, Boss. My lord has summoned me to be your system.
For now, the name of the entity you have been reincarnated into is Yujito Sujinkade.
So, that is the name I will register you as, Boss.
There's not much else, so explore.
•••
'What the?' Was the only thought that went through his head, 'Wait this must be the system that being was talking about,'
The box disappeared and another one appeared.
•••
Another detail includes:
Age: 5
If you desire to open this tab, think or say 'System' then I'll be summoned.
•••
'Woah, no wonder I am so short," He thought, 'That's weird,'
"Yujito," Yujito said, cringing at the high-pitched voice, "This will take time to get used to,"
Yujito looked down and saw he was in fact sitting.
"Okay," He said to himself, as it took a huge effort to stand, "Phew,"
A window stood in the wall of the bedroom.
Though he could not see through it, Yujito heard the sounds of voices, the sounds of an ordinary village.
'Wonder where I am,' He thought, 'wait, actually, where am I?'
He did have a point. This was the warring states period after all. Even if he was settling in minute by minute, his death could occur at any moment.
Yujito breathed in, 'Okay, stay calm,'
'System.'
As he thought about it, a blue box appeared once again.
•••
System activated...
Name: Yujito Sujinkade
Day: 1
Skills: N/A
•••
'Interesting,' Yujito thought, 'So there are only skills? Huh,'
'Wonder what skills I could obtain,'
The bedroom door soon opened, and Yujito looked instinctively toward it.
There, stood a woman.
Besides the fact that she basically was a giant from his point of view, she looked to be in between her early to middle 20s.
"Oh, you're awake already," She said, rather surprised, "What's up with all these kids being up before me?"
'Okay,' Yujito thought, 'I must remember, I am a five-year-old,'
That's when he learned he was in an orphanage.
Kinda expected if there was carnage everywhere.
For breakfast, Yujito had his mind on other things and not on the children of many ages around him.
'It's morning,' He thought, staring into space, 'If that's true and the time on earth is the same as here, my family would find me or what's left of me,'
'It was a school day, they would shake me awake if I didn't get up,' He sighed in frustration, though no one noticed him.
Not because he was thinking about his family he would never see again, but because of something inside himself.
'Why... Don't I feel anything?' Yujito thought, 'I should be feeling sad now, so why do I feel nothing?'
'I really am an asshole then,' He thought, before getting interrupted by a child.
The day went by pretty quickly, and Yujito found
himself back on the comfy bed.
'The only thing I could do now is train,' He thought, 'but I don't really feel like it,'
He began to close his eyes, 'I'm gonna try and enjoy these few days, then I'll train. I'm not gonna jinx myself just in case,'

'Perhaps I put it off a little too long,' Yujito thought, laying in the old bed he had always been in.
'Jesus, 1857 days? Since I was five, that must be around five years,' Yujito thought, 'If I was back on earth, I would be turning 22,'
'Though, I hope my family has gotten over my death,' he thought, 'but, my voice has gotten a little better since I am ten now, so that should be a sign,'
He looked out the window, the night sky twinkling outside.
'Now that I'm older,' Yujito thought, frowning, 'I have to do chores tomorrow, but that's worth it,'
Yujito raised from his bed, using his arms to hold himself up.
'Weirdly, nothing happened in this village for five years,' he thought.
Then, he felt a chill.
"Oh no," He said, "Don't tell me I-"
Something in the window caught his attention, and his eyes slammed open.
Fire.
Not the normal one where it's on the ground or something was cooking on it. That's usually what he would see from the houses through the window.
Now, those very houses were on fire, everywhere.
"Oh god," He said, feeling his body begin to shake, "We're being attacked, what can I do?"
Then, his nose twitched.
A burning smell came too.
Without realising, Yujito was out of bed, running down the hall, trying to find the front door.
Remembering the area, it did not take long for Yujito to find the entrance and once he walked out, panic erupted.
There was fire everywhere, the air filled with smoke, and the screams of the villagers.
'What the hell,' He thought, 'I can't...'
A loud crunching noise brought his attention to the back of him.
If he was still in there, the orphanage would have taken him with it.
Yujito fell back, scrambling a few feet more as the construction burnt to a crisp.
A scream tried to escape his lips, but it never did.
"Crap! Crap!" He shouted, picking himself up, "Must stay calm, must stay calm,"
However, the dead bodies he began to see strewn on the ground reversed this mindset.
Most, if not all, had to be civilians.
The closest one to him had a kunai in their head.
That evoked something within Yujito.
He wanted the kunai.
He needed it.
So he walked forward, and as he wrapped his hand around the weapon, he paused.
'Why do I think this will help me?' He thought, 'In all honesty, I don't know how to fricking use this,'
Despite some reluctance, Yujito tried to pull the kunai out.
The head moved around with it, and this disgusted Yujito.
After some struggle, he was able to pull it out as it made a shunk sound, removing itself from the flesh.
There was still blood on the kunai and Yujito tried not to barf.
However, something unexpected happened.
•••
Skill earned!
Bukijutsu:
Kunai
Now collaborating levels and other attributes...
•••
"Huh?!" Yujito asked in confusion, though he was not that focused on what the system was giving him.
His attention was on the man walking towards him.
Yujito could not tell if this person was a bandit or a shinobi. But the obvious answer was that he wanted to kill this 10-year-old.
As the man walked closer, he was holding a spear in his hand.
His eyes were locked with Yujito's.
"Your suffering is understandable," He spoke, aiming the spear at Yujito, who just stood there, "Now let your death be quick,"
The man readied himself, and with just a few more feet, he could end this man's whole career.
However, the System had other plans.
•••
Other collaborations replenished...
Adding skill:
Speed
Placing it at the appropriate level...
Activating in 5...
•••
Yujito was in a trance. His body shook. His eyes were still on the man creeping towards him. He could not move.
4...
The man was now closer than before, a single jab from his position would kill.
3...
Right then, it was as if Yujito was getting flashbacks of his previous life and the short life he had now.
2...
The man now set the spear to his side and gripped it firmly.
"What am I doing?" He asked out loud, probably to himself, "Sigh... I'm sorry,"
1...
As the man shoved the spear forward, aiming to pierce Yujito's unprotected neck, he expected blood and a drop of a body.
Those never came.
The spear hit no neck, and the child was gone.
Just then, the man felt a spark and looked behind him.
There stood Yujito, reading his kunai.
As the man had no time to react, a box appeared.
•••
Skills completed and fixed.
Rip and tear, Boss.
•••
With a fling, the kunai dashed through the air like a hawk diving for its prey, and it found its target.
Not a second later, the kunai was in the man's neck.
Soon a gurgle started, and the man fell.
A few seconds later, another dead body hit the floor.
"I just-just..." Yujito covered his head, "Oh God, that poor soul,"
Although, he just sighed and placed his hands at his sides, "I feel it... Yet I don't,"
Yujito walked forward, toward the man he had killed.
He was not moving, and Yujito felt nothing.
"This was going to happen," He told himself, "As much as I wonder why I don't feel anything, I must get out of here,"
'But where?' If he had to be honest, Yujito never really explored the area outside of the village. He could say he was lazy, but it was doubtful to let a young civilian out so far away, 'I don't have a map, but even if I have to live alone, this system is on my side,'
He looked back at the man, seeing the spear next to him.
Not thinking much, Yujito picked it up.
•••
Earned skill!

'Wait, during that fight, I got a skill for kunai and speed, and they were both level one,' Yujito thought, 'How did I ever kill that guy? I'll check again,'
'System,'

His mouth was so wide open, it could have touched the ground.
'How did I get such a boost?' Yujito thought, 'Maybe it somehow levelled up while I fought that guy?'
No matter how much his brain racked at this, Yujito focused on more pressing problems.
With the spear in both his hands, including the kunai he took out of the guy's neck, Yujito walked through the burning village, the fire now enveloping the sky from his angle.
This, along to get out of the village, Yujito never noticed the bodies he walked past.
A few times, he coughed.
However, after a couple of minutes, the flaming sky turned into a calm one.
"Finally," Yujito sighed, "I may have suffocated if I didn't get out,"
"But, it's weird," He spoke, placing his hand under his chin, "If that guy attacked me, shouldn't there be more?"
'Perhaps they are in other places rather than here, which is good,' Yujito thought, walking through a field, 'I can escape this way,'
So he did, and once the smoke of the village disappeared, Yujito sighed.
It was late at night, and he did not want to walk anymore.
For that, Yujito settled by a big tree.
"It's not a bed, but it will be necessary shelter,"
He placed the long spear against the tree but kept the kunai in his right hand.
Yujito plopped on his side, making himself comfortable on the grass.
'Huh, when I think about it,' He thought, quickly adjusting to his sleeping position, 'I didn't care for those children nor the caretakers. What is wrong with me?'
The only answer was the slow breeze. It hushed him like a mother hushing her child.
And Yujito complied and fell into a deep sleep.
