Chapter 15: Chapter 15: So This is the Main Character?
Behind the kitchen, the girl with a sweet smile occasionally glanced outside, her face flushing from time to time.
This kind of thing has nothing to do with strength; it is purely a little girl's admiration for beauty.
From school to outside, it has always been very common, even ignored by Sasuke.
While waiting for his food, Sasuke restrained the urge to enter a learning state, simply observing the kitten or other scenery in the store.
Occasionally, he glanced at other customers, feeling the prosperity and hustle of the area.
The guests here seemed to be regulars, chatting with each other, enjoying their meals, and smiling.
Seeing them eating heartily, Sasuke also felt his appetite grow, realizing he was hungry. It had been several hours since breakfast.
It was normal to be hungry.
[Ichiraku Ramen has a long history and looks like an ordinary snack bar, but because of the sincerity, craftsmanship, and personality of the owner, it has accumulated a good reputation and has many long-time customers.]
[Customers who eat noodles here can not only taste the delicious food but also feel the sincerity of the owner's craftsmanship to make customers happy and content.]
```
"Have you combined what you are doing with your dreams?" Sasuke thought of the uncles in the family who were skilled at handcrafts.
Many of them started businesses and did not choose to be ninjas. Many of them were also very happy.
When they were alive and had no accidents, they were in good mental states.
It is a pity that they have temporarily returned to the Pure Land.
In this dangerous world, keeping to one's own place does not necessarily protect oneself.
Only by standing on the side of justice as a strong person can we talk about the so-called... fairness.
When he grows up in the future, everything will return to its original state, whether it is the pancake vendor or the canteen owner.
As if nothing had changed.
While he was distracted, the ramen was ready and served. Sasuke greeted the system and started eating the noodles, quickly replenishing his hungry stomach, letting the satisfying taste of the food spread between his lips and teeth, bringing him physical satisfaction.
After a while, many worries were temporarily dissipated.
"System, you are right. Eating more good food does indeed make you feel much better. I feel that I look at things more positively."
"Of course." The kitten with smooth, pure white fur without a trace of color said, watching Sasuke eat happily, "When I have a physical body in the future, the cub host should not be stingy with money, and your system should also taste delicious food."
"Physical?"
Sasuke was a little confused.
"Of course, you don't think I will always be a projection, do you?" The cat stood up and said as a matter of course, "When the host grows up quickly, I will not only be a projection here, but also have a physical body and can interact with this world!"
Sasuke asked, "Will you always stay with me in the future?"
The system replied, "Of course! You will become the chosen one, the child of destiny, or even the father of destiny in the future. As long as I am here, we will choose each other and share weal and woe."
"Then when you have a physical body, I will also give you a bowl of tomato and egg ramen."
"No, I don't eat tomatoes."
Obviously, the cold system itself is not picky, but the system with projection is very picky and a little humane.
...
In the Hokage Building, the Third Hokage patrolled the village for security on a daily basis.
When dealing with the subsequent relics of the Uchiha and approving many so-called property custody documents, he used the crystal ball to observe the whole village and naturally understood the situation of the last orphan of the Uchiha.
As an old ninja who experienced the Warring States period before the village was built with Danzo, the Third Hokage also retained many past concepts.
He was not happy to see the result of the Uchiha coup.
It's a pity that it had been delayed for too long.
The matter had been settled.
He could only observe the situation of the last orphan and make sure that he was now either attending classes normally in school or eating out for lunch at a ramen restaurant, and re-entering a new life.
The Third Hokage could then feel at ease again.
As for the fact that he went to the bookstore later and read content created by ordinary people, it was not too surprising.
"Jing, maybe someone among your juniors will regain your ideals!"
He whispered to himself, and the teachings of the Second Hokage flashed in his mind, and his mood was a little complicated.
Since the First Hokage lived in seclusion and Konoha's political affairs were completely entrusted to the Second Hokage, what the Second Hokage's disciples, such as Hiruzen and Danzo, did not understand was that the Second Hokage did not continue to target the Uchiha and even accepted a genius from the Uchiha as his subordinate.
They also had Uchiha as their companions on the battlefield.
That was a time when a bond was born.
Now, it is hard to say whether this result is really in line with the Second Hokage's last wish, but there is no way to regret it, especially since the village's financial crisis has finally eased.
...
On the way to the bookstore, Sasuke heard the narrator's reminder and soon found the peeping eyes, and his expression was surprised.
The old Hokage who is highly respected in the village turned out to be a voyeur?
Since the narrator reminded him, as long as he didn't do anything extra, he would still be safe when this thing didn't exist, so Sasuke didn't care much, but there was a thorn in his heart.
"Read comics, novels, and movies! Let's have some fun—"
The white kitten landed on his left shoulder, looking unusually active. "Oh, it seems that the cost of watching a private movie these days is a bit high, but it doesn't matter, host, you can buy more peripherals, and when you have time in the future, you can go out to the cinema to watch a movie directly."
Sasuke glanced at the kitten on his shoulder. "Do you like watching movies?"
"Of course, watching movies is so fun, and being able to maintain happiness is a very happy thing in itself."
"Indeed."
Sasuke thought about it and nodded seriously, "Will there be answers about the protagonist and the child of destiny in the bookstore?"
He remembered that he didn't understand a lot of things the system introduced to him when they first met.
After lunch this time, he had plenty of leisure time left, so he simply took a look at the literary works the system mentioned.
Staying at the door of Jiraiya's Bookstore, Sasuke stared at the bookstore seriously for a while.
A lot of narration appeared next to it, and there was also a cold and continuous electronic sound.
Those redundant and lengthy information affected his judgment and actions.
Fortunately, Sasuke was not fighting at the moment, so he just walked in, identified different narration frames, selected similar best-selling works, and looked for corresponding prompts.
[Koga Ninja Scrolls, a story about ninjas and ordinary people written by ordinary people, which reduces the need for special effects and tells the ninja world from the perspective of ordinary people.]
[Ninja Perseverance Ninja Legend, a romantic work from the perspective of the top ninjas in the ninja world.
The core is a story about a small person who promotes truth, goodness, and beauty and expresses emotions and thoughts based on the ninja's own imagination and transforms into a hero.
The rhythm is straightforward and the effect is good for ninjas.
However, due to poor marketing, the sales among ordinary readers are very few, so it has become silent.
Author: Jiraiya, identity: a disciple of the Third Hokage.]

"What's behind it... a story written for ninjas?" Sasuke flipped through the two new ninja novels in the corner, looking at the photos on the cover, thinking.
Especially the cover of Ninja Perseverance Ninja Legend also wrote the general story of the protagonist and said that the story has a prototype in reality, and the protagonist is a genius as handsome as him.
The protagonist of the story, the center of the story...
This is what the system said...
The protagonist?
"You can't read the books in the bookstore without buying them!"
The shop owner appeared behind Sasuke and spoke gloomily. The last time he said this, he threw Naruto out who was peeking.
Sasuke calmly received both books together and took out the money calmly, saying, "I bought both of them."
"You can read them and even take them away if you pay, right?"
Watching the shop owner's eyes change from gloomy to bright, and every subtle change in his expression, accompanied by an analytical narration, Sasuke also felt an inexplicable emotion.
It's a very strange feeling...
But it seems... it's pretty good.
