章節 12: Chapter 12: This Time, I'm Going for a Tenfold Draw
"The mission reward is 15,000 ryō, but Konoha takes a 5,000 ryō fee, so we end up with 10,000 ryō," Shisui explained.
After a brief pause, he looked at Uchiha Akira and added, "Of course, how much of that 10,000 ryō you get depends on how much you contribute."
"A one-third fee? Not bad, better than some platforms that take half of the donations. That's quite reasonable," Uchiha Akira thought to himself as he nodded.
As for how much he would earn based on his contribution, Akira found that reasonable—more effort, more reward.
Shisui had taken Akira out of the village on this mission, which was to hunt down a criminal, a murderer. The target was just an ordinary person, so the mission difficulty was rated as C-rank.
If the target had been a ninja, the mission would have been B-rank, since any mission involving a battle between ninjas is generally B-rank or higher.
Uchiha Akira understood why Shisui had chosen a C-rank mission.
Despite being a prodigy, Akira was still only six years old and had never killed anyone before.
So, this C-rank mission was meant to get him accustomed to the idea of taking a life.
The Uchiha clan's training for their geniuses was different, and this approach suited Akira well.
After all, if he were to start with several months of D-rank missions like in the original story, such as weeding or catching pets, it would be a complete waste of his time to develop.
Having simulated life many times, Akira understood deeply that regardless of whether he survived the night of the Uchiha massacre, it would be the moment when the Uchiha clan and Konoha would fully break ties.
In simple terms, it would be the final battle.
With less than a year left, it was crucial for him to focus on growing stronger as quickly as possible!
...
Back to the mission—the purpose of this mission was simply to get him accustomed to killing, so the target wasn't particularly strong.
Once Shisui located the target, Akira engaged him. After just a few moves, Akira finished the target off with a single Great Fireball Jutsu. It was no challenge at all.
"Looking back at the entire Naruto series, the Great Fireball Jutsu always looked impressive, but I don't think it ever killed anyone. Does that make me the first?" Akira wondered to himself after eliminating the target.
Upon returning to Konoha and submitting the mission, Shisui handed the 10,000 ryō mission reward to Akira.
"Sensei, are you really giving me all of this? You at least took the mission, found the target, and put in a lot of effort!" Akira felt a bit guilty as Shisui handed over the entire amount.
After all, in this mission, locating the target was the most critical part. As for dealing with an ordinary person, his involvement was not as important.
"In that case, since it's getting late, why don't you treat me to a meal?" Shisui suggested, not making a big deal out of it.
"Of course!" Akira agreed. Since Shisui had said so, there was no need for him to hesitate.
However, Shisui didn't take advantage of the situation. He simply ordered a few small dishes, costing about 200 ryō, and then left.
"Sensei, what about the next mission?" As night fell and they parted ways in the Uchiha district, Akira brought up the next mission.
"The next mission? Let's talk about it in a week," Shisui replied after a slight pause.
Although Shisui found Akira's calmness after his first kill a bit unusual, he still thought it was best to give him a week to adjust to the emotional impact.
"That sounds good," Akira nodded quietly.
Having spent 200 ryō on dinner, Akira still had 10,000 ryō left.
With that kind of money, how could he resist going for a tenfold draw?
At 1,000 ryō per simulation in the life simulator, he could run ten simulations!
It was a pity that the life simulator could only be used once per day. Otherwise, spending it all at once would have been quite satisfying!
When Akira returned home, he briefly spoke with his grandfather about the mission.
Seeing Akira return, Keiko hurried to prepare dinner.
"No need, I've already eaten with Shisui-sensei," Akira said, stopping Keiko from preparing dinner.
The ninja academy's school year also began in September, so it was currently mid-summer in September.
That night, after a refreshing cold shower, Akira returned to his room.
With 10,000 ryō in hand, Akira felt a surge of anticipation.
At the same time, he thought he could try out some of his ideas in the life simulator!
With his plans set, he began the simulation!
