ASFUCITWON Chapter 114: What Reiji Has Been Dreading Finally Happens
🕑 Added 2025-01-31 11:24:46 +0000 UTC"Explain first, Karina. What happened? What’s wrong with Kushina? If you don’t tell me, I won’t know what’s going on!" Reiji said in a serious tone, trying to calm the sobbing Karina.
"Hiks! Kushina... Hiks... Kushina will be taken to Konoha...! Reiji!" Karina, with a face full of tears, spoke haltingly, her voice trembling with deep sorrow.
Hearing what Karina said, Reiji was shocked.
Although he had suspected this for a long time, Reiji never imagined that the day he feared would finally come.
The day when Kushina would be taken to Konoha, to be used as a vessel for the Bijuu, the tail monster known as Kyubi, the Nine-Tails.
Reiji looked at Karina with eyes full of regret, then glanced toward the center of the village, where Karina and Kushina lived.
Reiji felt a heavy burden pressing on his chest.
Slowly, Reiji brushed Karina's messy hair and gently wiped the tears flowing down her cheeks.
"Are you sad because you won't be able to see Kushina again? Or are you sad because Kushina will go explore outside of Uzushio Village while you stay here?" Reiji suddenly asked, his voice calm yet firm, surprising Karina a little.
"What do you mean?" Karina asked, confused, although tears were still streaming down her face, reflecting her deep sadness.
"I'm just asking," Reiji replied in a softer voice, trying to ease Karina's anxiety.
"If you're sad because you won't be able to see Kushina again, then you're foolish. Haven't I made various things?"
"Even if Kushina goes to the ends of the earth, you can still communicate with her using the Chakra Communication Device." Reiji tried to explain seriously, although there was a slight casual tone in his words.
"If you're sad because Kushina can go explore outside of Uzushio Village while you stay here, then don't worry."
"I can take you out of Uzushio Village. I can even take you anywhere you want, if you wish." Reiji added, expressing his confidence that nothing was impossible for him.
"No! Reiji, you fool! It's not because of that! I'm just... I'm just... Hiks! I'm just sad because Kushina will leave us... That's all... Hiks..." Karina sobbed, her face full of worry.
Karina hugged Reiji tighter, as if hoping for a miracle that could stop her feelings of sadness.
"If that's all, you don't need to worry," Reiji replied with a reassuring smile.
"I can make Kushina come back to Uzushio Village every day for as long as you want." Reiji's voice sounded convincing, as if all the solutions were in his hands.
"Really?" Karina lifted her head and looked at Reiji with a newfound hope, although there was still a hint of doubt in her eyes.
"Of course," Reiji replied with a wide smile, full of confidence. "Don't doubt me, Karina."
"But isn't the Simple Teleportation Portal only able to send people within a certain distance?"
"I heard Konoha is very far away; it can't be that the Simple Teleportation Portal can take Kushina there every day, right?" Karina asked with a confused expression, trying to express the doubts weighing on her heart.
"Heh, who do you think I am?" Reiji smiled arrogantly, his shoulders slightly raised.
"Reiji! An extraordinary genius! Do you think I can't create something more amazing than what exists now?"
"You underestimate me too much, Karina!" Reiji chuckled with a tone full of confidence, as usual, brimming with an arrogance that couldn't be hidden.
"Hemph! Reiji, you fool!" Karina gritted her teeth, but at the end of her sentence, there was a small smile that she couldn't hide, which was quite clear to Reiji.
