Chapter 7

Having your sister as a jonin sensei was a refreshing experience, to say the least.

To the old and new Nawaki having a Jonin sensei was a new experience altogether.

Tsunade was strict, but she was rational and busy. There were things her brother had to learn on his own.

She said this when she sent him back to his room with a pile of genjutsu to study and try.

Looking at a seal sequence, Nawaki felt like he was about to get a migraine soon.

Thinking:

'This Shinobi stuff isn't as easy as it looks on TV….'

He was now trying to learn the most basic technique, the [genjutsu reversal technique].

According to Tsunade, there was no point in learning genjutsu if one didn't know how to dispel them. In fact, that would be extremely dumb and dangerous.

Nawaki was on his own this afternoon. His learning experience with a jonin could be said to be very autonomous.

As the Senju prince, he was expected to be talented, if not a genius…

…Going through trial and error for a long time, Nawaki finally memorized the seals. But a good hour had passed.

Now, it was around 4 in the afternoon.

Opening his door, he asked one of the maids:

"Yukari, do you know any genjutsu?"

"Eh? Yes, Nawaki-sama." A young girl dressed in a pink kimono, with brown hair and dark-brown eyes, said. She was called Yukari and was one of two maids who attended Nawaki since he was 3.

She was 15 this year and had taken care of him since she was 10.

Before that, Nawaki used to sleep with his deceased parents— which according to Mito's wisecracks, didn't always please her son, his dad…

"Cast one on me," Nawaki said.

"That…May I ask why Nawaki-sama?"

"I just learned the [genjutsu reversal technique], but I don't know any genjutsu. You'll have to help me try one since I can't cast it myself." Nawaki explained.

After a look of understanding, Yukari nodded.

Entering the room, she clasped her hands, ready to make seals, saying:

"Can I start, Nawaki-sama?"

"Wait." He said. "Which jutsu are you planning to cast?"

The girl answered, "A sense deception technique, it's called the [Hunger and thirst technique.]."

Adding, "... That'll make you angry and thirsty, my lord."

"..." Nawaki was speechless when he asked, "Where did you learn this?"

He was wondering if she had used it on him before…In the memories, he used to throw little tantrums when it was time to eat…

Sometimes like all children at the age of 4, he could also be a brat.

"Mito-sama teaches this technique to all the young maids in the mansion, my lord." The girl blushed a little when she said.

"..." Nawaki remained quiet.

Hours later,

After another meeting with Tsunade, Nawaki left for his grandma's room.

The time for the long-awaited bath had come. And he was excited about it.

Going there, he even brought some of his old toys with him. Such as a yellow water duck and a water pistol.
