chunin exam III

The entire ground in the direction where my sound waves spread cracked, the trees dried up in seconds, and the cat watching us from a distance exploded into a pile of flesh.

I collapsed to the ground due to the pain in my throat as the effect of the cursed speech spread for hundreds of meters.

Kakashi and Rin stood motionless, watching the area I had just destroyed.

As sweat poured down his forehead, Kakashi thought about how big the power gap between him and Erin was. After a few seconds, Kakashi gulped and looked at Eren, seeing him kneeling on the ground and immediately walked over to him.

While Kakashi was asking me what happened, I opened my mouth to ask him for water, but I realized I couldn't make any sound.

I ignored the burning pain in my throat and wrote the word water on the ground with my fingers

Kakashi immediately went to the river behind us to get water.

Meanwhile, Rin had just come to his senses and was feeling remorseful as he looked at the child kneeling on the ground in front of him.

Shortly after, Rin quietly approached the boy in front of him and used the mystical palm technique, the only ninjutsu he knew.

When I realized what Rin was doing behind me, I wrote on the ground and told her to use her technique on my throat.

After Rin struggled for a while, I no longer had the burning sensation in my throat, and after drinking the water that Kakashi brought, I came face to face with Rin.

Rin looked like she was about to cry right now, but when Kakashi moved to intervene I told him I was calm.

"Rin look at me"

It took exactly ten seconds for Rin to lift her head and look at me.

"Don't slap me again"

I continued talking, interrupting Rin, who immediately started to apologize.

"If you get angry at me, you can curse at me, punch me, or even attack me with the strongest ninjutsu you know."

I continued explaining as Rin looked at me confused.

"But slapping means very different things to a man. You can't hurt any man, even if he is your own son."

"I'm sorry, the cat just made me a little angry, I swear I'm not normally like this."

"I know we went to school together even for five months"

When I raised my hand and started caressing Rin's head, not only Rin and Kakashi, but even I was shocked. I think my instincts from my previous life kicked in.

I quickly removed my hand, turned around as if nothing had happened, and went to the dismembered cat's body and pulled out the yellow-painted shuriken.

Ignoring Kakashi and Rin's strange looks, I headed back to where we started to finish the exam.

After a few minutes, we gave the exam target to Orochimaru and dispersed to our homes.

The final stage of the exam was also like a demonstration for the villagers of Konoha, so the date for the final stage of the exam was set one week from today.

Everyone valued the final stage of the exam because our village had been at war for a long time and there were very few such events that could boost people's morale.

After we got home nothing I did was ask our new maid to cook for me

When the food was ready, Danzo came home and we started eating together.

After dinner, Danzo told me to come to the Hokage building in half an hour and left the house.

Even though I didn't know why he called me, I went to my room, changed my clothes and checked the tasks tab of the system once again.

When I saw that I still had not received a new assignment, I took action to leave the house, greeted the maid before leaving the door and left the house.

While walking on the street full of people, I was trying to guess why the Hokage called me. The first thing that came to my mind was that the Uchiha clan might have reported me to the Hokage for killing the Uchiha clan's ninja cat.

The more I thought about it, the more logical this possibility seemed to me. At that moment, a wonderful smell entered my nose.

When I finished eating the fried dumplings, I remembered that the hokage was still waiting for me and I quickly ran to the hokage building.

When I opened the door to the Hokage's office and walked in, I was greeted by 5 people sitting on pillows on the floor.

Sarutabi Hiruzen and my father were sitting on the right. Jiraya, Orochimaru and Tsunade were sitting on the left.

When Sarutabi heard the door suddenly open, he turned his head and looked at the door with a small anger, but when he saw me, his expression returned to its previous state.

"Sit here, we have things to talk about."

When I looked at where Sarutabi was pointing, I realized that he wanted me to sit in the middle of everyone.

Looks like I was going to be punished today and there was no way I could avoid it.

Sarutabi Hiruzen continued talking as I sat on the seat shown to me.

"Orochimaru said that you already have the power of an elite joni. Is this true?"

Since the question came from a place I least expected, I had a brief moment of surprise and then I fell into thought.

After thinking for a while about whether I should reveal my abilities today, I remembered that I didn't hide my power anyway.

"No he's lying"

While Tsunade and Orochimaru were surprised by my answer, the others looked relieved.

"I think I'm stronger"

This time everyone was frozen by what I said, only Jiraya stood up laughing, came to me and put her arm around my shoulder.

"Ehehe, this is a really funny joke, Eren. I admire your creativity, have you ever thought of becoming a writer?"

When I saw the expression on Danzo and Sarutabi's faces soften, I realized that they were thinking like Jiraya and decided that it was time to make a move.

"Projection Sorcery"
