Chapter-3: Tsukuyomi

“To think that can happen to one of the strongest sects of this country.”

My father heaved a sorrowful sigh. Yes, I already convey about the destruction of my sect to my father. I couldn’t tell everything to my other family because of touching reunion, I conclude it will ruin the mood of everyone. But they will know by tomorrow anyway.

“Yes, offending Dragons isn’t laughing matter.”

I bitterly continued,

“That bloody experience is still traumatizing for me.”

“But if everyone had died then…”

My father stopped halfway, of course, I understood what he wanted to say. That is, ‘if everyone had died then how did I come out in one piece?’

Well, I will not lie to my father about my new power gain. That was the second reason I wanted to talk with my father alone. It’s not like I don’t want to speak about this to my mother, siblings or other fellow clansmen, I just ensuring safety for them. I will be opened about my power to my clansmen later date. After all, ‘if you can’t trust your family, you can never able to trust even yourself and god.’

“Well, I had experienced certain circumstances.”

“Is it something you can’t convey to me?”

That’s why I respect my father who doesn’t want to unnecessarily pry into the people's privacy even if it comes to his own children. Changing my eyes pattern to Mangekyo Sharingan,

“No, in fact, you are the only one who I can share that, [Tsukuyomi]”

I used Itachi Uchiha’s Limited Tsukuyomi where my father could see what I had experienced like he was the one who was experiencing it.

Tsukuyomi requires eye contact* to be performed, trapping the target within an illusion completely under the user's control. Itachi's prowess with the technique has allowed him to alter the perception of time with ease within the genjutsu to make a few seconds seem like many days as a means to torture the target. This results in the victim suffering psychological trauma that incapacitates them for a considerable period of time. Only another strong Sharingan can make a defense against Tsukuyomi, but it is still doubtable even they could break it that easily (as Kakashi couldn’t and Itachi was sick and had weakened visual when he used it on Sasuke, and it is still unknown if Itachi used his full power against Sasuke.)

[*AN: Many people think that Itachi could use Tsukuyomi with just his figure. But no. He can only perform ordinary genjutsu with a figure, it was also not explained that if he used Sharingan for it because many shinobi can use genjutsu even without Sharingan.]

By the way, the color of our clansmen eyes is (are) red as well as mine. So, I can catch off guard an opponent (or ally) when I will use Sharingan against them. Another coincident is our hair color is white (close to silver for some clansmen) in another word if I ever go to Six Path of Sage Mood, I don’t have to worry about my hair color change.

Could it be fate? Was that power only for me? Nah! It’s all just coincident.

“That’s... wh-what was that…”

My father surfs my experience for less than 1 second but after ending of that he was dazing about ten seconds so I give him time for recovery.

“It wasn’t a dream.”

I pointed my finger at my Mangekyo Sharingan eyes.

“Hahaha… Today I seem like gain some extra age. The view of this world is still shallow for me.”

He laughs and mutters. Perhaps he was talking to me or perhaps to himself. Well, I can understand his feeling who (father) is experiencing third person POV. But more importantly, I want to give a warning,

“Weight of this power is great, so…”

“I will pretend like I never saw that power.” Stopping me he said, “I have privately called you here for your marriage, you were just lucky enough to escape the great disaster of your sect academy because of that.”

Never underestimate noble, who can collect his compose less than a minute. I am relief, happy and proud because that person is my father who leveled up in nobility rank by two times.

“I am thankful.”

I said it after shut my eyes while deactivating Sharingan.

“No, actually I am thankful to you that you are the one who has inherited that great kind of power. The future of our clan is bright and that will be done by you, my son, my pride. And I can tell that story to my grandchildren with a broad grin.”

Hearing him I unconsciously smiled but,

“Seems like my marriage plan part was somewhat true?”

“Yes. Your mother was the one who has chosen your fiancé. She was asking me to send you letter for several days. So I may have sent you a letter in a month or two. I think she is thinking I am the one who called you.”

That’s what he said. But it is difficult for me.

“But you know, I don’t want to tie down that soon especially not at this critical time.”

“Don’t worry. She is only 12 years old. That means you still have 3 years in hand.”

15 years is legal age for marrying. Well, I still have but,

“But isn’t our age difference is big.”

I asked him. Well, 4 or 5 years are still in range but 8 years seems long. By the way, in this world, our average longevity is 200 years. So if you compare with that it might be irrelevant but my love interest was the same age as me.

“Well, we are not ordinary being but nobility. 40 years man marries to 15 years young lady yet you will be only 23 when you do.”

Sigh, all thanks to nobility.

“Putting those aside. Can you arrange 50 or something slave children whose are not more than 12 or less than 8?”

He frowned after hearing that. Even though this country approves slavery, it is one of the things that my clans disapprove of, even if ones buy them they have to treat them as an ordinary servant, not like dogs. The total number of the slave in our clan won’t be even 10 (who are not even slave anymore.). And so asking 50 new slaves somewhat worry some for him and that much I can understand.

“And why?”

He asked me with soft yet sharp tone.

“Do not worry. I am your son, so I will not abuse them.”

A genjutsu is created when a ninja controls the chakra flow of a target's cerebral nervous system, thereby affecting their five senses. In another word, your opponent must have chakra for casting genjutsu what should not exist in this world. But I could use Kotoamatsukami and Tsukuyomi too easily which is answer one thing. The human body of this world carries mana. And I am guessing mana is something equal to chakra. And that is the reason I am willing to take slaves and there is the possibility that I can train them to use ninjutsu and genjutsu, even if they can’t I will share chakra with them like Haguromo.

“Well, I have this much trust toward you. It will be difficult at once. But I will secure them.”

“I am thankful.”

After that, we exchange small talk like states, cities or political news until we were called by mother for dinner. (I reached my house before dusk.)

1) MC's has the habit of adding well before a sentence most of the time.

2) There are many things that won't follow the logic of actual series.

3) My release has no timetable.

4) I will write about the training of slaves recruit in future, I just briefly said why they need to be recruited.
