Chapter 27

During training, when he encountered something he didn't quite understand, Kayn didn't hesitate to ask openly. Kamakura on the other hand, patiently explains things once again.

The Sharingan can allow its wielder to influence someone through various contacts.

Actually, with exceptional mastery over Sharingan, someone can even use it to enslave a Tailed beast.

Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Obito are the most obvious examples of it.

These are also the same reasons and facts that made Kayn want to learn and master Genjutsu even more.

However, at his current stage, Kayn can only control or slightly influence someone's mind in just a short amount of time. Still far from the goal he decided to set.

He had a myriad of thoughts in his mind, but his expression remained focused as he listened carefully throughout Kamakura's lecture.

"Let's start with the Eye of Insight..."

Overall, Uchiha Kamakura's teaching method, in Kayn's opinion, is quite good and effective.

He does not dryly instill boring theoretical knowledge over and over again as most instructors do. It's the opposite even.

While explaining things, he likes to combine actual experiences and uses shadow clones to help him showcase his key points even better.

That, combined with Kayn's seemingly good learning ability, the experience became quite satisfactory for both sides.

Although Kayn can't apply what he has learned to other situations, it is still easy to quickly understand the things that were being explained to him.

For some reason, everything just makes sense. Thanks to that, throughout this day's training, he absorbed everything thrown at him pretty quickly, like a sponge to water.

So much so that before he knew it, a couple of hours had already passed.

Kamakura paused for a moment, looked at the sky, then stood up and said.

"The sun is already setting up, so let's stop here for today. If I'm free tomorrow as well, I'll come over again."

Hearing this, Kayn let out a breath. He's aware that learning is a gradual process. He can't bite more than he can chew.

The overall knowledge he received today is actually more than enough already. The next thing he should do is digest it first and lay a solid foundation before going to the next stage.

Otherwise, what he learned today would be useless.

Kayn quickly stood up to say goodbye "Sir Kamakura, thank you for taking the time to teach me today. Once this situation is over, I will definitely repay this favor."

Hearing this, a slight smile appeared on Kamakura's aged face.

"No need to be so grateful about it. I'm just doing what I need for the sake of our Clan's Future." Clearly emphasizing the last part, he then added "By the way, I'm thinking of bringing my youngest son here later. My schedule doesn't allow me to be here always, so whenever I'm busy, he can guide you in my stead."

As he spoke, Kamakura summoned a shadow clone ​​"I will leave this here just in case you have any questions later on, both in training or just general stuff. If you do, don't hesitate to ask."

Right after that, the old butler hurried away. Not even waiting for Kayn to make a response, probably because he already knew what he was about to say and didn't want to hear it.

Kayn on the other hand, looked at the other person's departing back, feeling somewhat emotional.

As a wise man once said, when you demonstrate great value, it is easier to gain the goodwill of others.

Although this goodwill contains certain purposes, he can't help himself but still be grateful about it.

Not long after this, Kayn finally decided to go in on his new house.

The first thing he did after checking out the entire house and making sure that he was finally settled in, was of course open his system, to most likely check the progress he made for today's training.

Kayn nodded in satisfaction upon seeing the exp bar move. Such a thing is never not satisfying.

"I still didn't do much given the lack of time today. I wonder, would the exp increase once again if I completely learned what was taught to me today?"

With such thought, Kayn was instantly full of motivation once more. So much so that he quickly decided to hop back on his practices again.

But, motivation doesn't replenish energy. So the fact that he's already too tired for today remains the same. 

That's why, as much as he wanted to move around again, he decided to stick to theoretical training in the meantime.

And that he did. The training quickly started right after that with Kamakura's shadow clone acting as a tutor at the side, providing one-on-one teaching.

Just as Kayn started doing this, the real Kamakura also returned to Uchiha Setsuna to report.

"Setsuna-sama, everything is done. Kayn also said that he was thankful for everything."

"That's good." Setsuna nodded slightly and asked, "So... what do you think of him?"

"Hmm..." Kamakura thought for a second before saying in an unchanging expression "I think he's an excellent shinobi. He has a sharp mind, quick response, good character, gratitude, and most importantly, he deeply cares about the clan."

He praised Kayn with such sincerity. But actually, if it weren't for what happened today, Kamakura would probably not have spoken as well as now.

As he mentioned before, he knows Kayn's value as the most favored person of the Elder, but only when he finally saw it for himself, did he truly understand the reason for it.

Regardless, the elder agreed to what his trusted butler said.

There are two things that Uchiha Setsuna values ​​most about Kayn. One is his exceptional mind, second is his care for the clan.

The Uchiha clan worships the strong and respects strength. To put it bluntly, whoever has the bigger fist has the final say.

But for Setsuna himself, having a good brain is just as, if not, even more important.

The Uchiha clan has been on a decline continuously for so many years. Which simply shows their overall power as a Clan, cause if they were just your generic clan, they would have been long devoured by their enemies.

Kayn awakened the three tomoe at the age of 16 and had decent talent. With good resources and hard work, becoming an elite jonin wouldn't be far from the truth.

But that's not what made Elder Setsuna regard him highly.

Kayn's pure feelings and drive to save the clan from its predicament are what moved the Elder so much.

This is an important aspect of it. Had it just been his exceptional mind and talent, he wouldn't have treated him as highly as he did now.

However, once broken, trust wouldn't be easily captured again. Uchiha Setsuna's expectation has already been failed twice. That's why, despite all those facts, he's still pretty hesitant.

"Let's not act rashly. For now... Let's observe for a while."

...

It was currently nearing midnight, and Kayn's stomach growled with hunger, protesting strongly to him.

Hungry, Kayn finally decided to stop his practice for the moment and glanced at the System.

[Sharingan(Three-Tomoe): 30/6000]

In just half a day, he managed to increase so much exp! This is easily his biggest haul since he arrived in this world!

This just shows that his newest exp cow is really that awesome.

Now for his two other skills... Well, as of now, the Acting and Voice Skills were still being worked on by his shadow clones so, Kayn had no way of knowing for sure how much they had increased until they were called back.

"How about I call them back now..." Kayn was quite tempted. "Argh whatever. I'm getting too excited. I'll go eat first."
