TSSITWON Chapter 09: Contract
🕑 Added 2024-08-27 14:07:49 +0000 UTC"So, you want to make a contract with me because you want to use Natural Energy, right?" Kuroshiro asked, lifting his face.
"Yes! The great Lord Kuroshiro," Aoki replied respectfully, even though his heart was screaming in exhaustion.
"Damn... I've been putting on too many fake faces. I pretended to be innocent in front of Kushina and Minato earlier, and now I have to pretend to be amazed... I should have joined an acting competition in my previous life," Aoki thought, his eyebrows twitching slightly as he held back.
"Alright, kid, I'll do it, but with a few conditions. You must follow all these conditions without breaking any, understand?" Kuroshiro stared at Aoki with narrow eyes, showing that he was serious.
"Um, what are those conditions, great Lord Kuroshiro?" Aoki asked, his lips twitching slightly at the beginning, trying to maintain an enthusiastic appearance.
"First, you must follow everything I command. Second, this contract is only valid for six months, whether you manage to use Natural Energy during this time or not. Third, you must feed me ten times every day," Kuroshiro said while chewing on the fish he had brought.
"No, once a day," Aoki replied without hesitation.
"What? No! Ten times!" Kuroshiro insisted, unwilling to back down.
"Once a day!" Aoki repeated, his voice calm but firm.
"Ten!"
"Alright, twice!" Aoki offered a compromise.
"No, uh! Fine, nine!" Kuroshiro began to get frustrated.
"No, two or not at all," Aoki stood firm in his stance.
"Kid, you! Alright, eight!" Kuroshiro was almost giving up but still tried to hold on.
"No! Three or not at all!" Aoki did not back down at all.
"What! You still want to fight, kid! Alright, seven or not at all!" Kuroshiro was about to explode, but Aoki remained calm.
"No, three times a day!" Aoki held his ground.
"What! Kid! You...!" Kuroshiro furrowed his brows but finally conceded. "Fine, then let's meet in the middle!"
"Five times a day!" Aoki and Kuroshiro said simultaneously, staring at each other intensely before both finally smiled in agreement.
Minato and Kushina could only remain silent, their brows twitching at the scene that had just unfolded.
"Alright, kid. Here’s the contract. Sign it with your blood!" Kuroshiro said authoritatively, suddenly producing a contract paper in front of Aoki.
"Okay," Aoki replied as he took the contract and signed it with his blood.
"Good, then I’ll head home first, Brother Minato, and beautiful Sister Kushina," Aoki said as he lifted Kuroshiro and placed him on his head. Without giving Minato or Kushina a chance to respond, Aoki hurried home.
"That kid, damn it! That naughty boy just left us after we treated him to a meal!" Kushina said with an annoyed expression, her brows furrowing sharply.
"Uhm...? Calm down, Kushina. Let’s go home too," Minato said with a slight smile, trying to soothe Kushina before leading her back home.

Meanwhile, Aoki finally arrived home. As soon as he got there, Aoki locked the door and made sure the windows were tightly closed, pulling the curtains to cover every gap. Aoki's breath was slightly hurried, clearly showing that he felt pressured.
"Hah, what's wrong with you, kid?" Kuroshiro asked with a confused expression, watching Aoki busy closing off all views into the house.
"Huhh, you might know that yellow-haired man, but do you know that red-haired woman?" Aoki asked in a fearful tone, his face sweating profusely.
"Hah? Who is that woman?" Kuroshiro responded arrogantly, showing no sign of concern at all.
"That woman is the Jinchūriki of the Kyūbi, or more commonly known as the Nine-Tails Monster. Kushina is often watched by many Anbu, and if someone is close to Kushina, they will also be monitored."
