On Konoha Street, Satoru Hyūga spped a stack of ryo in his hand, frowning as he pnned how to spend the moo its maximum potential.
inally, the living allowance of 1,500 ryo had tripled to 4,500 ryo. It robably about as much as what one could earn from a rank-one mission. It wasn't a huge amount, but it wasn't too little either.
Adding the savings he had left over from buying the Ste Scroll before, izing some metal arrows shouldn't be too much of a problem.
The main thing was to find a suitable ninja tool shop. If it was too high-css, he couldn't afford to have many made. If it was too shabby, it wouldn't achieve the effects he expected.
Sigh, it's so hard being broke. If only he could be kept by a rian.
Satoru Hyūga couldn't help pining. Why was he i in his past life, and still have to worry about money after transmigrating?
While looking for a ninja tool shop, Satoru Hyūga deliberately avoided the area where the previous shop was located. After all, Uchiha Rin said that the whole street beloo her family, and he had injured her during the assessment. So it was better to avoid her if possible.
Uedly, the moment he walked into that ninja tool shop, the clerk dy immediately rushed up to him enthusiastically.
"Is that Satoru Hyūga-kun? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
???
"Are you guys kidding me?"
The clerk dy said excitedly, "That's right, it's you. Our young miss said that whenever you e, we have to give you the best treatment!"
Young miss? Could it be Uchiha Rin once more?
The er of Satoru Hyūga's mouth twitched faintly. He didn't expect that after deliberately going around half the vilge, it was still her shop.
"How many shops does your young miss's family really own?" Satoru Hyūga couldn't help asking.
"Not that many. Almost half of the ninja tool shops in Konoha are ours."
"..."
"What about outside of Konoha?"
"Um, there are also dozens of them."
Satoru Hyūga eechless.
The clerk girl said, "Although our boss is from the Uchiha , she's not good at fighting but is very skilled in business. Thanks to her e with Nekobaa, the business has naturally expanded."
"The young miss born into su enviro has had a strong petitive streak since childhood."
Alright... Satoru Hyūga pursed his lips. It seems that the rian and grind personas of Uchiha Rin are here to stay.
"ize a kind of arrow for me. The material has to be metal. It'd be great if it's..."
Satoru Hyūga was too zy to look for other shops, so he put forward his requirements one by one.
"How much?" he asked cautiously. After all, being short on money, he didn't have the fideo speak loudly.
"1,000 ryo."
"1,000 ryo?" Satoru Hyūga excimed in surprise.
It wasn't that it ricey, but it was much cheaper than he had anticipated. Acc to his previous estimate, the price should at least have been...
"Yes." The clerk dy smiled. "The young miss has instructed us to give you a dist."
"Is that so?" Satoru Hyūga stroked his . Since she was willing to let him take advantage, he couldn't just turn down her kindness.
"Make five more arrows acc to the previous specifications, using chakra metal."
"Er... okay."
It would take a few days to have the arrows ized. The day, when Satoru Hyūga arrived at school, he noticed that the way his cssmates stared at him had ged.
Shock, envy, admiration, jealousy... All sorts of emotions were mingled in their stares and directed at Satoru Hyūga.
Satoru Hyūga saw Iruka looking at him with a plicated expression. When Iruka noticed Satoru Hyūga looking back, he immediately turned his head away, not wanting to make eye tact.
Just as he took his seat, he saw Anko beside him curiously lean over.
"Hey, Satoru, are you really the oh double Kekkei Genkai that they've been talking about?"
"Of course." Satoru Hyūga rolled his eyes at her. How could she be so slow-witted.
"I hought there would be someoh two Kekkei Genkai at the same time. It's really incredible. I thought one was the limit."
"Have you eaten too much dessert and gone dumb? There have been double Kekkei Genkai ninjas in Kirigakure before. They're rare but inct. Read more books, okay?"
If it were before, Anko would have immediately retorted loudly when mocked like this by Satoru Hyūga, but now that she knew he was a double Kekkei Genkai genius, she just quietly nodded and said, "Oh".
Just then, Satoru Hyūga noticed someone walking towards them. Looking up, he saw it was Uchiha Rin.
"What's up?"
Satoru Hyūga's voice wasn't very loud. He had swihe other person a bit when buying the arrows yesterday, and now he felt a bit guilty.
Uchiha Rin said calmly, "Let's have a fight after school."
Satoru Hyūga:???
No way? Just because of a few chakra metal arrows? Is it really worth it? I'll just pay the money back, in installments.
As if sensing the inappropriateness of her words, Uchiha Rin thought for a while and said, "I wasn't vinced of losing to you st time. I've learned some new ninjutsu. Let's have another match after school."
Satoru Hyūga heaved a sigh of relief and couldn't help but think to himself, Aniki, if you want to have a match, just say so. What do you mean by "have a fight"?
"pared to Kakashi, you're a more suitable oppo for me."
Uchiha Rin paused and added, "If you agree, I'll cover all the costs of your ninja tools from now on."
This is promising indeed!
The er of Satoru Hyūga's mouth twitched slightly. To develop the Eleagic Forbsp;ability, the ption of ninja tools is essential. He couldn't rely on his . Since Uchiha Rin was willing to be a sucker, why not take advantage of it?
After firming the time and pce, Uchiha Rin returo her seat.
Beside him, Anko curiously leaned over and whispered, "Satoru, what's your retionship with that Uchiha Rin?"
Satoru Hyūga thought for a while and said, "Supplier."
Anko:???
After school, Uchiha Rin followed Satoru Hyūga to the forest on the back mountain (the mountain behind the school). A stream meandered gently through the trees, and the Afterglow of the setting sun filtered through the gaps ireetops onto the dead leaves on the ground. It was really cozy.
"Is this where you usually train? Why don't you train iraining ground of your ?"
Uchiha Rin looked around and couldn't help but ask as she did so.
"There are too many stubborn people in the . Training there would be rather restrictive." Satoru Hyūga shrugged.
Hearing Satoru Hyūga's words, Uchiha Rin thought of some of the elders in the Uchiha . Her eyebrows furrowed involuntarily, and she nodded in agreement.
"Ihere are always many old fogeys in big s."
Satoru Hyūga clicked his tongue. Looking at Uchiha Rin, he couldn't help but say, "To be ho, I didn't think you'd really e?"
Uchiha Rin raised an eyebrow and looked at Satoru Hyūga.
"Why do you say that?"
"Um..."
"Do you know that going to a grove with a male cssmate has another meaning in some pces..."
"What meaning?"
There was a hint of fusion in Uchiha Rin's pitch-bck eyes as she stared directly at him.
Satoru Hyūga pursed his lips. It had to be said that Uchiha Rin had great looks. She was that kind of cold, long bck-haired loli.
But at this moment, a voice kept eg in his mind.
I'm not into child exploitation, nor am I into young girls in that way.
Although there were plenty of people in the ninja world who got married at the age of thirteen or so, Satoru Hyūga's views still carried over from his past life. He kept his distance from this young rich girl in front of him.
More importantly, he was worried that if they got too close, he'd be ground to death by her! After all, besides being a rich girl, she was also a grind.
"Fet it. I don't want to discuss such b topics with you."
A hint of impatience appeared on Uchiha Rin's face.
"Let's just start fighting directly!"
