The first subordinate! [18]

It's currently the afternoon as I am playing against Kakashi with the game "I made" called chess.

This game takes me quite a while back in my past life as it was one of the first things I was passionate about when I was younger as I would always try to beat my father who was pretty good at chess

Back when I was still on earth there was a trend in chess for a little bit on which I started to play again after not trying it out in a while, and with a few weeks of racking my brain cells together I was able to get a rating of 1800 peak.

One of the many things I will be introducing to this world will be chess as it's something I enjoy.

Another thing I want to add is a trading card game.

To be more specific, collectible cards with drawings of famous shinobi on them.

Cant really do other card games from my world as I don't remember enough shit to make a deck or two.

"Check-mate." I say with a grin plastered on my face as Kakashi loses for the third time today.

"Bruh." He responds with a dead-pan expression.

Packing up the board I start to make my way to the training ground as I will be meeting my first subordinate.

Asashi Sato.

I basically got his whole fucking profile on me so I practically know him more than he knows himself, which might be a stretch but I know his family's background more if it makes more sense.

I've also just realised in a months time I should be able to get my chakra kunai, you might think that it shouldn't take that much time to make and you're right.

But theres only a few people in Konoha that can make custom chakra metal items and with him being always busy with orders I can't really complain as money wont persuade him to do it for me with a priority anyways.

Entering the training field I spot two people out in the open.

One person who is currently standing up with a sloth mask and with a frame the size of an adult I assume to be a root nin.

While the other guy is a kid who looks to be around 10 years old?

I guess he's quite big for his age, he looks like Sai with the haircut and everything but just with a bigger frame and not as pale with brown hair.

His appearance in itself satisfies me quite a bit as it insures me that he is somewhat talented with low genin reserves without training which is very nice, and just to add the cherry to the top his physique is definitely above average as he will grow to be quite the intimidating guy with a strong taijutsu.

Satisfied with Danzo's pick, I started to walk over waving at the two of them.

Signalling for Sloth to go, I start to introduce myself as I get closer to Asashi.

"Hello man, my name is Raiden Shimura your new master!" I say enthusiastically while observing his facial expressions.

Asashi hearing my reacting proceeds to bow down and introduce himself with a calm but happy face.

"Hello Shimura-sama my name is Asashi Sato and I'm looking forward to seving my new master." He says while holding a book in his left hand.

Looking at the book I recognise it as the basics for etiquette when serving someone. I've seen it in the library before as it's a commonly used book for people who generally want to work for someone else like as a worker or servant in this case.

Bird brought one with her I believe as the book of it I found at the libraries was her book.

"I'm guessing with that book you know the basic etiquette you must have to serve me which is good, I like a smart and diligent servant who doesnt act like a robot. I wont restrict you much so don't worry about being too stiff infront of me." I tell him as I start to walk towards the training targets.

Asashi nodding to my words starts to follow me.

"I'll give you a week to learn all the essential skills like cooking and cleaning so you can get used to the environment more. Don't worry though you will get paid and have your own free time, but this will only be on days I won't need you as per rules of an heir. I must have atleast one guard at all times unless I'm in the academy."

Making it to the green fields with stumps with multiple targets I grab a set of kunai and throw all three at once to hit three bullseyes at once.

"Thump...thump...thump!" The noise of the kunais cleanly hitting the targets can be heard as Asashi swallows a mouth full of saliva with sweat dripping down his face.

"You aren't stronger than me and probably never will be but you are still a person with the potential to become strong so as long as you do as I say I will reward you with money, power you name it. You wont be the only one to be my subordinate though as another one will be arriving today."

I've done a lot of talking but I'm pretty sure my message has been clear to him as I know he isn't someone stupid. From the documents I have gotten states that he is someone with an advanced intellect that already thinks like an adult but also acts like a kid sometimes.

'You are a slave but if you show your value and listen to my commands I'll treat you with kindness and give you power.' Is the basic message I'm sending him here and with the situation he's in he should know this.

--POV Asashi Sato--

Hearing the three kunai sail across the air as they hit each target perfectly in the center, I gulp in my saliva.

"Thump...thump...thump!"

'Damn Sloth wasn't kidding when he said that master is a hidden genius.' I think to myself nervously

"You aren't stronger than me and probably never will be but you are still a person with the potential to become strong so as long as you do as I say I will reward you with money, power you name it. You wont be the only one to be my subordinate though as another one will be arriving today."

'Quite the round about way to call me a slave who can prove himself no?'

Well it's better than being treated like trash while being overworked so I can't really complain. I've seen some of the dark sides of this world and if it takes being a valuable asset to master to gain power and to live a comfortable life outside of the shinobi fighting then I don't really have any complaints.

Master walking up to me hands me a schedule which I grab out of his hands after a few seconds.
