Before starting reading, I would also like to invite you to familiarize yourself with my author's work "The Path of Omniscience", where the main character is not a person, he is cold and insensitive to everything.

Three years have passed since the elders' meeting on Kuzu's death. During this time, conflicts between several large clans began to grow and absorb many smaller clans in a series of continuous bloodshed.
The Hyuga clan was no exception and was also gradually drawn into these events. By the decision of the meeting of elders, a significant part of the main branch was forbidden to leave the territory of the clan without permission and protection.
...
In a rather dark, small room, illuminated only by a weak flashlight, rare sounds of paper could be heard. In the corner, on the slightly trampled ground, sat a seven-year-old boy, neatly laying out sheets of paper.
On these sheets, many intricate symbols were visible, which formed a variety of shapes. Soon, having finished packing the last piece of paper, the boy got up and walked to the center of the room, ignoring the darkness present, carefully looked around.
A circular room of about fifteen square meters appeared before his eyes. Its uneven walls, floor and, oddly enough, ceiling consisted of earth and stones. In some places, iron fortifications could be seen on the walls, covered with intricate seals that emitted barely noticeable streams of chakra, making it clear that they were activated.
On the floor, there were many sheets of paper with seals arranged in a certain order, with the center in the form of a large sheet on which the boy was standing.
"The original seals that I set when I dug this room should soon lose their power. Fortunately, I managed to finish this more complete seal... Due to a possible imbalance, when applying a new seal to the old one, you need to first complete the removal of the old seal and only then apply a new one. It must be done quickly, so that none of the servants present at the manor will notice..."
After considering his actions, Samato began to fold one seal after another at a fast pace. It took a few seconds and after folding the last seal, he abruptly lowered his hand to the ground.
"Fuin: Small concealing barrier."
The copious amount of chakra coming from Samato stimulated the symbols on the paper underneath. And having activated, the threads consisting of symbols, as if alive, moved towards other pieces of paper. Soon, the entire floor of the room was covered with symbols that formed several circles.
But Samato didn't finish there and straightened up, folded several seals again.
"Fuin: Removing the seal"
Immediately, the chakra in the seals applied to the supports left them, bringing with it a loss of performance, a slowly weakening barrier. If a sufficiently experienced Hyuga were present at the moment, it would not be difficult for him to notice the change. But fortunately, in the house at this moment, there were only a few ordinary Hugues from the side branch, whose abilities were far from the right level.
When the seals on the walls lost their effectiveness, Samato did not hesitate to fold the hand seals again. Obeying his instructions, the circle under his feet began to spread along the walls and ceiling, completely covering the room.
After a few seconds, the room that opened for byakugan's view disappeared again, leaving behind a darkish spot under the ground, which was visible in byakugan's vision as a spot that few people would focus their attention on.
Having finished putting up the barrier, Samato breathed a sigh of relief realizing that the room was hidden. After taking a couple of steps, he suddenly stopped, feeling the coming weakness.
"The imposition of this barrier has devoured almost all of my chakra reserves. I think I'll arrange this room later, now I need to recover a little."
Following his thoughts, Samato headed towards a small hole in the wall. Easily crawling along it at an incline, he stumbled upon the boards covering his further path. Stretching and exerting a little effort, Samato gently lifted them, pushing them aside.
Rising and closing the secret passage, he found himself in the corner of his rather ordinary for the heirroom . Closing the passage back, Samato carefully examined his clothes and made sure that everything was fine with her, except that she was wet with sweat. Bending down, he reached for a piece of paper set on the floor, which was full of symbols.
Folding the hand seal with his hand, deactivating the imposed fuin, Samato quickly tore off the paper, putting it in his pocket. Activating the byakugan for a few seconds, he examined the territory of the house and seeing that no one noticed anything, he relaxed and walked to his bed, on which he sat cross-legged.
"I think Ame should be back in the next few days. I hope he will bring me some more samples that I asked for."
Over the past three years, Samato has secretly been able to study a little the blood of several clans, most of which Ame got him. Initially, the man did not understand why his nephew needed the blood of representatives of other clans. But when he heard about the compilation of a card file of special genomes, he relaxed a little and even supported, persuading Hanshi to allow the boy to conduct research.
Samato himself, taking advantage of the presented opportunities, set about studying the blood of a representative of the Kaguya clan that fell into his hands.
Unfortunately, due to the limited equipment present, he could practically rely only on his byakugan. But even so, Samato made the most important discovery for himself.
In the blood, namely in the DNA of Kaguya, excluding some features, contained quite a significant part of the kinship with Hyuga.
From this, Samato concluded that, as he thought, Hyuga and Kaguya have the same ancestor. Also, after spending some time, he was able to find out that there was quite a significant amount of physical energy in the blood of the bone clan, which increased the regenerating properties.
But due to the limitations in research tools, he was unable to advance further. Of course, Samato was already considering some possibilities to increase his physical performance using a small amount of blood he had, but first, it is necessary to prepare some kind of springboard for this.
"It wasn't easy, but I begged Hanshi order some tools and consumables I needed through Hartsu. The money that was raised from the sale of that cosmetic product should be enough and the fact that it is Hanshi who asks for it should not attract much attention."
Sighing, Samato got up from the bed and stretched. Going to the closet and opening it, he took a set of standard Hyuga clan clothes. After changing clothes and heading towards the door, the scientist thought.
"I think it's time to visit the hospital, for sure I'll be able to take some more new samples."
Going out into a long corridor, Samato, ignoring the members of the side branch showing him respect, went to the clan hospital.
- Very good kid, keep up the good work… and if you can support your talent with hard work, it will be rewarded to you... Aah, I'm tired of something, we'll meet at the upcoming Hansha meeting.
For a moment, Hanshi, who had become heavy, quickly regained his expression.
- Well, have a good rest.
- Yes, rest… Eh, unfortunately, not up to him yet.
