Chapter 28

They arrive in a few hours inside the root hideout.

After arriving they go to the training grounds.

Suddenly, Dagai appears infront of them.

"Good job, you all were decisive in your actions. Remember the root way of doing missions, without any unnecessary actions and emotions."

They all nod at him.

"For this month, you will all be getting missions for bandit killing only. After that you will each get different types of missions."

"And after the next month, you will all be living separately. Don't be attached to eachother, if you were all not so talented then you know what test you would have to do."

They all nod their head, then each of them leaves to go to their room.

Along the way, Akari thinks 'Heh, if we were not talented then he would definitely give us the test to kill eachother and the last one surviving would have qualified.'

'But I didn't know earlier that this exam is only for cannon fodders. And it makes sense, otherwise important kekkai genkai and talented people will be eliminated.'

He enters inside their room and goes to take a bath.

As he washed his hands, he was lost in thought.

'Today I have killed for the first time and I already don't feel anything about it. I don't how many more people I will kill before I die.

Looks like I have also become like them or perhaps will become worse than them in the future.'

After bathing, they went to eat then they slept.

After that during the whole month,

They performed many bandit killing missions.

Sometimes he thinks where does this many bandit come from.

His kill count already exceeds 100.

During this month he fought with many genin and chunin level bandits but he was able to kill them very easily.

'This world's people have very weak defences even if they strong including me. And if someone doesn't have some kekkai genkai or a powerful jutsu they are very weak compared to others.'

While performing the mission, he got to know that Root doesn't perform bandit killing missions regularly.

They do it only once a year and only kill the bandits who are closer to konoha.

This also helps them in acquiring money from the bandits and the gap of one year helps in forming bandit groups nearby regularly.

From today onwards they each will get different types of missions.

All of them are as usual in the training grounds.

After a few minutes, Dagai arrives.

He gives each of them a scroll and says coldly "Perform these missions and kill yourself if you don't want to do something during the mission."

"Each of you are already in Root Genin Corps. And Akari as you have performed much better than them during these years, you have been given a different mission."

"If you complete it you will be promoted to Root Chunin Corps."

Akari nods and says "I will definitely complete this mission perfectly."

After getting the mission scroll each of them went in different directions in the training ground and opened the scroll.
