Chapter 1: Ondol (6 Years Old. Close To Seven)

(3rd Person PoV)

Winter is close.

And Yamanka Tobias plans to use this cold temperature for his use.

Huhuhuhuhu. Tobias' face morphed creepily greedy, as his eyes replicate money, his mouth widely stretched impossibly.

'That face I see from time to time disgust me with no content. I want to smack him in the head so hard and blame it to the fly.' Vū impulsively thought, a look of distain morphed on his face before it dissapeared the moment Tobias turned on his heal to look at his way.

'This guy's face is so stoic that he even forgot to conceal that disgust look in his eyes. 'Wonder what made his knickers twist?'

"Tobias-sama, where are we going?"

"Where else, but to the pub, of course!"

"Tobias-sama, you're still a minor."

"Blah, blah, blah, old enough to kill! Old enough to drink!" Tobias remarked, qouting the sentence he had read multiple times during his years of reading Naruto fanfiction.

That immediately shut Vū up. [Vū: A type of person who agrees with a logical remark.]

The pub, however, wasn't just an any ordinary pub. It was a pub he had wrecked— without his brother and Vū's knowledg— with the plan to take advantage of the plan folk as a promotion for his own investments.

'And shall I, no guarantee, enter a jobless life with no worry over money!'

At the pub...

'Yikes... I overdid it.'

His green eyes landed on the interior of the tavern, it was so messy that a civilian would have assumed that a shinobi had fought a battle here.

Over here and there were broken chairs and tables lying around. Occasionally, there are broken plates all over the floor.

There was a sweeping sound. It became clearer once he saw the pub owner, cleaning Tobias' mess.

"Yo."

The bald man was cleaning with a bitter expression on his face. As soon as he saw Tobias, his complexion paled. Tobias ignored the anger that flashed through the pub owner's face as it had been replaced with an awkward smile.

Tobias' reached for the paper behind his back pocket and showed it to the pub owner.

"As my apology for my actions last night, I will compensated it for an ondol." He said, ignoring the way Vū is staring at his face with an expression that basically says 'What-the-fuck-did-you-do,'.

"I've heard from rumors of how cold your mother has gotten at this up coming winter."

Yes, this was what Tobias had been doing for the past months. Gathering information from here and there in Konoha's civilian lives had proved to be beneficial for Tobias, who planned on living a jobless life.

Fron what he have gathered, the pub owner's mother was still suffering from the cold last winter, and now with the winter almost near, his mother's suffering seemed to have worsen despite being taken to the public sauna bath twice a week.

From what Tobias have observe, it was a no wonder that the pub owner's mother was cold. Their house, that he had sneak in last week only had one fireplace— it was delusional to think one fireplace was sufficient enough to warm their entire place.

So, Tobias had decided to take advantage of the pub owner's situation. He planned on making the pub owner as an advertisement for his ondol project.

In this world, there are no advance heating system as it is still developing at a very slow pace, but with Tobias' existence who used to lived in the modern era, the develop of this world will increase in a fast speed and no doubt that he'd become rich in no time!

"As you can see from the paper in front of you, this is the 'Ondol Construction Contract'. With me, Tobias, as the Contractor— and you, the pub owner, as the employer."

"Are you saying, that instead of paying the damages you've made, you'll instead be making me an ondol or somethin'?"

"Correct."

(First PoV) [Inserting... Tobias]

In my past life, I was interested in engineering but was not an engineering student. I couldn't become one due to the debts that I had inherited from my parents who made a drastic decision and left me to fend for myself.

"That's why we're going to be signing a contract. What do you say?"

"Are you really...?"

"Please sign this!" I said, pushing the paper towards the pub owner. The suspicion can be clearly seen in his eyes.

I exaggeratedly sneered at the pub owner, raising my head higher as my eyes look down at him, "We'll always see each other anyway, why can't you just fucking trust me, heh???" Maintaining my expression, I was ecstatic seeing the owner rushing to sign the paper. Eugh... fuck off Vū, stop staring at me with the 'Wow-just-how-trash-can-you-be,'.

Not that I'm proud of it, but nonetheless, a win is a win.

"You've made an excellent choice mister, kekekekeke, I'll make sure that you'll never regret making such decision."

Fuck you and your eyes that had already says 'I'm-already-regretting-this'.

"Tobias-sama,"

"Hmm..."

"What is this I'm hearing?! While I do appreciate that you did not reveal your last name to involve the clan in this mess that you've made, but do you have a single idea of what's about to happen if you do not fulfill your part as the Contractor of the contract?"

Despite Vū's voice being serene, his expression... unfortunately, betrayed his tone. The veins in his temple looked like its about to burst out.

"Trust me..." I could see the disbelief that glowed in Vū's amber eyes, "I hate to use this kind of method but there was no other way,"

"No other way? Or too lazy to find a civilized approach?"

"What? Are you saying that my method is batshi—"

"I meant to say that your kind of method would only ruin the clan's reputation."

"So in other words, in my term for your implications, my plan is batshit crazy." Sneering at his face that would only remind me but of the future's dangers as I emphasize the word 'plan'.

"Whatever helps you sleep at night, Tobias-sama."

Seems that this little shite do not have the energy to argue anymore.

Anyway, I'll make the ondol house small, so there's no need for precise measurements.

"I'll make them smile..."

I promised to myself. Touching the dirt of the land that belonged to the pub owner.

"The pub owner and his mother, I'll be sure to make them smile after I'm done. Also go fetch me a lot of lumber, and all of the necessity tools for construction."

"Pardon?"

"You're doing nothing and I'm fucking working. Might as well have you take a chore."

... after all, their smile will be the foundation of my money-making.

Kekekekekeke~

Hearing Tobias giggling, Vū scram and went to fulfill his master's order.
