Chapter 31

I have a lot of time so I decided to train this technique by myself instead of clones like what I did last time.

I got up and went to the kid's rooms one by one to wake them up and then went to the first floor where the kitchen is located to cook our breakfast.

I cooked pancakes that I bought from the shop and warm milk as a drink.

Kimimaro, Haku, and Jugo went to the Academy while I joined Naruto and Karin at the lake where Sasuke was already waiting.

I created a clone and we spar using Butterfly Style with trench knives.

After an hour of continuous sparring, I decided to start practicing Shadow dance when I noticed Naruto, Karin, and Sasuke watching me.

"You done with your training?" I asked

"That's cool, it looks beautiful. Can you teach me?" Karin asked.

"Later, you can only start Taijutsu training after chakra control" I answered

"Hai!" she said then immediately continued her training.

"How about me?!" Naruto

"The one I used doesn't fit you, You're the type that relies on instincts in a fight while Sasuke is better at single sword style."

Naruto suddenly goes from excitement to disappointment while Sasuke is still excited since he has an interest in Kenjutsu.

"Forget about taijutsu, Finish the chakra control first" I said.

When Kimi (I'll be calling Kimimaro like this from now on) and the others arrived from the Academy, we went towards the orphanage to get Airi and Aika.

I saw the Matron waiting at the door with the 2 girls beside her, wearing a backpack.

I already transformed into my adult form before showing myself to them.

"Good afternoon Mr. Ashe, go on kids..greet your new guardian," the matron said

"Good afternoon Mr. Ashe," the 2 girls said at the same time, Even the jolly Aika seemed meek at this moment.

"Good Afternoon, this is Kimimaro, Jugo, Haku, Naruto, and Karin" I replied and introduced the kids one by one.

"They will be your new brothers and sister" I continued.

"I'm Aika Surogoza..this is my twin sister, Airi Surogoza. Please take care of us!" Aika introduced then both of them bowed.

"No worry! If anyone bullies you..just tell me and I'll beat their as-" Naruto is talking with a puffed chest when I cut him off.

"We'll be leaving now, Thank you for waiting with the kids," I said to the matron.

"It's okay, just a little thing..you can go on your way now, be careful" She replied

"Yeah thanks again, Goodbye"

"Goodbye"

I held the hand of Airi and Aika before walking toward the market, the kids were following behind us.

Since these 2 kids came from the orphanage and a Konoha Natives, they were not given allowance like the others. I have to spend my own money on them.

The system said that they'll be useful in the future so think of this as my investment in them.

I trust the system...after all, If I don't trust the system..who can I trust?

The system is a wish that was given to me by a 'god'. If that 'God' has an ulterior motive. I can't do anything about it, I can only dance on his palm. Right now, I'm just a puny human so I can only trust them.

"Starting tomorrow, your brother Naruto and Sister Karin will teach you how to train," I said

"Who is the black-haired Brother?" Aika suddenly asked.

"That's Sasuke, I didn't adopt him like you guys but he's also a brother..alright?" I said, thinking that I might Adopt him too once the Uchiha Genocide Happens.

"Hai!"

{Host, unlike the other kids, Airi and Aika have no experience with chakra. You can help them awaken it but it's not advisable since they were still too young.}

'huh? There's something like that?..the kids, myself included just felt the chakra and then learned how to control them. So it needs to be awakened?'

{Only for civilians or people with no bloodline limit}

'I see, then do you have something to help them awaken early?'

[Chakra Pill (Permanent Increase) - 0.8 coin

Physique Strengthening - 0.5

Pain Nullifier (10 mins) - 0.2

3 Healing Pills - 0.5]

'Buy 2 each and the healing pills, Tell me why they can't awaken their chakra and what the pills are for?' I already have an Idea but I still want to ask.

{Civillian Kids need to be at least 8 to awaken as their Chakra amount is enough by then. To increase your chakra, you also need a strong physique as a vessel or your body will get damaged.}

'And the Pain remover?'

{You must have noticed that when someone uses a technique or Pills to increase strength, their body will get damaged and the pain accompanies it. After forcefully increasing the chakra in a body, it'll be painful as the chakra path will be filled until it is adjusted to hold the chakra. I already calculated and a 10-minute pain Nullifier is enough, the healing pills will be used afterward to heal the damaged meridians.}

"Ashe! Where are we going? This isn't the way to the apartment" I suddenly heard Naruto yell, This kid always yells.

"From now on, you guys will call me Brother" They're lucky that I have a body younger than them or I'll ask them to call me Big Brother.

"We're going to shop, You won't want to make your sisters sleep on the floor don't you?" I said, glaring at him.

"Oh yeah, I forgot about that" he replied.

"Since I'm here, you guys buy a bed and the things you didn't manage to buy last time because of insufficient space in your storage," I said after remembering that they only sleep on a futon.

We went around the market buying things for the kids and using my inventory for storage.

They didn't even buy a chair, reason? They only go to their room during the night and they use my room as their hangout place.

I spent all the money I got from my first mission on Airi and Aika's things. Looks like it's time for a new mission, a bandit extermination is good...I can have the spoils.

3rd POV

Ashe didn't notice but Jugo and Haku are observing his face every time he pays using his money, they know that Airi and Aika probably don't have an allowance like them.

When they went home, Ash said that they should help the 2 girls arrange their room after putting their things on the floor of Airi and Aika's Room before entering his room.

"Guys, Did you notice that As-brother Ashe seems to be in pain while buying things?" Jugo started a conversation while helping Aika.

"Brother Ash seems to have run out of money" Haku replied.

"Unlike us, Aika and Airi don't get an allowance since Brother Ashe adopted them from the Orphanage..he needs to use his own money for their things, also, The kitchen is full of weird but useful things...it looks expensive. He must have spent all the money he got from fetching us." Kimimaro interjected.

"And delicious foods too!" Naruto added
