Chapter 18: The Truth.

<{ Notice: Unique Skill [ Contractor if the Damned ] has been obtained successfully. }>

{ Confirmed: Unique Skill [ Contractor of the Damned ] has been obtained successfully }

Once the contract was done. He then looked at himself and looked amazed and surprised.

"T-This..."

He then realized that his clothes were all made out of Legendary Tier armor. His weapons were also legendary tier which made him even more surprised.

"You will be the one to take care of your problem and I will only support you on the side."

"Whatever you do next is none of my concern..."

"I shall rename you Shisui!"

A huge quantity of my Magicule surged out of my body and entered his body. He felt his power grow even stronger, reaching the Hazard level.

With a flick of my finger. He disappeared without a trace. Veldora started to emerge from the ground.

"That skill [ Contractor of the Dead ] is quite good. If used correctly you might even be able to rival an Ultimate skill user. Of course, it is only an IF situation."

"Yes, that is true as it is combined by many Unique Skills... My question is... Why didn't it become an Ultimate Skill even after using 4 Unique Skills?"

I used many Unique Skills in my arsenal to make it yet it didnt even. become an Ultimate Skill. I used Unique Skill [ Optimistic ], Unique Skill [ Manipulator ], and Unique Skill [ Great Sage ] which was duplicated and it then became Unique Skill [ Doll Manipulator ] and then Unique Skill [ Contractor ] was combined with it.

"Yes, that is weird..."

{ Notice: The answer to that question is you currently do not have enough Magicule or Nen supply to evolve into an Ultimate Skill and your soul space is dangerously low. }

'I can just get the Magicule from Veldora but... The soul space is a huge problem.'

'Hey, do you have any way to expand my soul. space?'

{ Confirmed: There is a way to do it... }

'What would that be?'

{ Notice: It is to become a higher being! }

'Aren't I already a True Archon? The highest spirit?'

{ Yes, but by analyzing the Gnosis and then absorbing it together with your existence. Unique Skill [ Baleful Omen ], Unique Skill [ Banquet ], and Unique Skill [ Contractor of the Damned ] should be able to evolve to an Ultimate Skill...}

'But.'

{ There is a 80% chance your soul could shatter, 15% chance your soul would vanish, and 5% chance it would succeed. }

'Ok. No!'

"*Sigh*"

"Let me guess, you want to fuse with that item? I don't suggest it as it is a Mythical grade item and you only have around 565 thousand EV, give or take."

"Yes, I presumed that that would happen so I do not intend to fuse or use it for the time being..."

'[ Baleful Omen ], try to make Veldora gain an Ultimate Skill.'

{ Afermative! }

"Try to achieve it, if you can..."

"Is that a challenge?"

"Do you consider it a challenge?"

"Hahahahaha. I Veldora accept this challenge and shall gain an Ultimate Skill!"

The entire space started to shake as his mere voice made such a huge impact on the surrounding.

{ Notice: Begining stabilization of [ Plaine of Euthymia ]... }

{ Confirmed: Stabilization complete... }

With one step, a gush of lightning emerged from my feet and made the [ Plain of Euthymia ] barren once more.

I floated in mid-air. I put my left leg on my right thigh as I floated in the middle of the air, In a cultivating pose.

( Shisui P.O.V. )

As I returned back to the Village. I looked at myself once more and asked myself. "Is this really worth it?"

The question that has been murmuring around my head as if it was telling me that it was never worth it to sacrifice everything for the Village that betrayed me...

And even my Clan that treated me well... I was even willing to betray them for the sake of the Village.

'Maybe the Clan head was right all along...'

I kept on thinking and thinking... Maybe... Just Maybe... If I wasn't so pathetic I could change everything... But I knew that it was just a helpless imagination.

I knew that if the Clan Chief would declare war on the Hokage, there would be another war amongst the Villages and a Demon would then be summoned to annihilate the Villages.

But a miracle appeared out of nowhere and helped me gain a tremendous amount of power that exceeded the power that I once held in my grasp.

I reached 60 thousand EV by simply renaming me and giving me equipment.

I was in a Waterfall ( Where he died ). Contemplating on what to do in the current predicament.

I could not hastily make a decision as the lives of everyone was at stake if I made the wrong move.

The Hokage wants to completely destroy the Uchiha Clan as it was too dangerous and was unpredictable in many ways. ( Culprit: Madara. )

While the Uchiha Clan just wants to be accepted and take back their glory that was stolen from them ( Culprit: Madara ).

"*Sigh*"

I was sitting on a rock as I looked at the wonderful scenery of the waterfall. I looked up and saw the shimmering star.

"I know you're there Itachi..."

Itachi came out of the forest and sat beside me. As he looked at the stars.

"I was worried... and so did everyone..."

"The last one is a lie..." I said as I slightly chuckled at his joke.

"The Hokage and the Clan Head already knows about this doesn't he?"

"The Hokage is looking everywhere for you and branded you as a Traitor of the Village..."

"That Pricked old man..."

I just wanted our Clan and Village to coexist and live peacefully protecting our Village but... It seems they want war.

"Whatever your choice may be, I will follow you till the end..."

"If I were to choose. I would choose the Clan as they didn't betray me..."

"Should we just relocate? I mean, it would be easier for everyone to do so..."

"That is true but, they would immediately attack us if we went outside of the Village and the entire purpose of the Uchiha Clan... Doing all this is for their glory and the descrimination to be fixed..." I said in a sad tone as I knew one side would eventually lose or maybe even a Third party will get invole and kill us all.

"Then that will be extremely hard."

"It must be hard, Is it not?"

A soft voice came out from our backs. We both turned around and made some distance as I looked at the woman.

She had platinum light blue hair with golden eyes like gold and was wearing a blue shirt with a fur on his neck and a katana on his back.

His aura alone proved that he was on another level than we were as she smiled and waved her hand at us.

"My name is Rimuru, I'm a humble slime and the humble servant of the Raiden Shougun."

Her wave slowly turned into a bow as she spoke to us in a soft and gentle tone.
