Chapter 12: Qualification to became a Patriarch 2

" Oy taizou! Get down here, and don't slack off!"

"Geez! Who slack off! I just rest for a while here!"

"A while? It's already more than 30 minutes!"

The man and woman's bicker were non-stop until Asura separate them.

"Kanna, Taizou, take it easy! Don't fight! Don't fight!"

"Well... If Asura say so... then I'll stop"

"Hahah! Look at your beet red face Kanna!"

"Grrr"

"Hey, Taizou! Don't pester her!"

At the time, Asura is in one of two villages that being rooted by Divine tree's fragment. In that time, why did Hagoromo didn't take care of it? Even though with his power, he is more than enough to complete the task.

However, he made a pact to himself. That he will fix the thing that he and his little brother's destroy or break after their battle against their mother...

It's kind of weird when you think their family quarrel almost destroying the world, but... with that fight, it is showcasing how powerful their family is...

It's been 7 months after Asura come to the village, and he took 4 of it to convince and create a well in the village.

One had to know, that the village surrounding is a barren stone. Not even hoes and spades could be used to dig the ground. So, divine tree's fragment is used to nourish the land, at the same time. Many of the villagers die because of it.

The water nourishes the land, the villager eats the harvest, and then Divine tree uses the villager to nourish itself...

Knowing that Asura tries to convince the villager and stop them using the divine tree's might and convince them to burn Divine tree's fragment. Sadly, what he receives is a thrown stone...

However, when the villager and especially the village chief that see his tenacity, digging a well in the stone like ground for more than a month. They help him and try to dig it themselves.

While Indra right at this time, already back in the Ninshuu village.

Everyone already thinks that Indra will be their next patriarch, however, Hagoromo says that he will wait for Asura, to the other.

.

.

.

By now, many of them had learned how to control their Chakra and use it to dig the well.

After many months of struggle, the well created smoothly...

The divine tree burned...

And not only have they received a new water source, now... they receive Chakra, to help themselves in the desolate land.

When Asura took himself to leave several of the villagers left with him to come back to Ninshuu Village.

..

.

.

"Asura-sama has come back!"

By the time Asura back, village gathering immediately started.

Indra has already in the hall, while Asura just took his step to the hall along with his group of people from the other villages.

Sat there, they then began the meeting.

"Before I never think... what the meaning to become a leader is... what shall I do to become a leader... because in the first place, Ninshuu village is a peaceful village that holds individuality and freedom..."

"However for you my sons... it is different. Have you all thought what a patriarch is?"

Silent... nobody answers it...

"For me, a patriarch is a symbol that holds the village as one... a position that is like an elder brother to his little brother..."

"Hence my decision is... to make..."

"Asura as the next patriarch..."

~~

Seriously, can’t he choose more time to decide who shall be the patriarch? I’m dead tired after returning to hear a speech, how vexing… sigh, well I’ll just listen then…

Eh? Me?

I’m the baldy that Asura brought from the Village along Kanna…

My name?

You need not to know that, it’s not like you will remember me after all…

Ahahaha, since you guys force me… my name is…. Baldy…

Sigh… yes! I know! I am bald! And my name also Baldy! I want to curse my name giver but then I will get cut off from the scene you know! I mean the author is the one who named me!

Sigh… but still, Hagoromo-sama is somehow weird…

Even though he has some kind of weird aura or chakra? He looks not too old though he somehow has a white hair and weird purple eyes, wait, is that a pupil? How fascinating…

Eh? Did he say something? Why did everyone have that shocked look?... Me?

Of course, I'm not giving a damn on who is the patriarch of this village, as I only see Asura as my boss…

At the time in the village, I see everyone as the enemy, as I am an orphan… at the time I can remember, my parent has long been the prey of the Divine Tree or is it the root of the tree of origin, whatever not like I care about it anymore…

I didn’t really care about my parent, but it’s still sad whenever I see others that have fun with theirs, no… the word is not sad but envy… I envy them that have parents but I am not too happy with that feeling, so… I choose to be the thug…

What? Don't you understand my roller-coaster kind of feeling? So do I! how can I know? I never feel the warm of family, except the village chief that took care of me… ah… that’s it, I maybe see him as my parent huh…

Anyway, it seems that some information that Hagoromo-sama repeat his words…

Oh! Great! It seems that Asura got to be the new patriarch!
