Eyes Gather

"What the hell is this?"

"The boss actually lost face!"

Uchiha Kawazo watched Uchiha Matsuzaki sitting next to Chestnut Snow with a ferocious expression, itching to beat him up.

"Very well, kid. I don't know what method you used, but I'll make sure you learn that there's no good end for those who steal my people."

Uchiha Kawazo stared at Uchiha Matsuzaki, his hands clenched into fists.

Uchiha Matsuzaki glanced at the surrounding gazes and felt extremely awkward; he knew this would bring him no end of trouble.

"Hello there... I really didn't expect to run into you here."

"Yeah, I wasn't originally in your school, but luckily I had my uncle check the class roster, and he managed to get me transferred into this class."

"But why do you feel a bit different? Your eyes keep wandering elsewhere."

Uchiha Matsuzaki and Chestnut Snow chatted.

"Are you really oblivious, or are you just pretending? You've really brought a lot of trouble upon me by doing this."

"Look at the way those guys around us are staring; they look like they want to kill me."

"That's no surprise, considering how beautiful you are, and you just happened to sit next to me the moment you arrived in this class."

Uchiha Matsuzaki whispered very softly.

"Pfft... So that's why. It seems I really have caused you quite a bit of trouble this time. Maybe I should go sit somewhere else."

Chestnut Snow said with a smile.

Uchiha Matsuzaki shook his head and said, "If this were before, I might have agreed. But now, I don't even take them seriously."

After the previous incident, Chestnut Snow had a whole new level of respect for Uchiha Matsuzaki. Even though they were similar in age, his strength was already so formidable.

"Alright, since you've said so, I'll just sit here with peace of mind. I heard there's a competition later, so I'll be looking forward to it," Chestnut Snow laughed.

Uchiha Matsuzaki nodded, then scanned the gazes around him. Just as he expected, he had noticed while they were talking that several eyes had been fixed on him the entire time.

Especially Uchiha Kawazo, whose gaze had never left him from start to finish. It seemed this had truly enraged him.

But that didn't matter; after all, Uchiha Matsuzaki's current strength was immense, and dealing with him would be more than easy.

"By the way, last time, you left in such a hurry that I didn't get a chance to ask."

"I remember that girl who took you away said you were quite weak, something about a cold. What exactly was that about?"

Uchiha Matsuzaki suddenly recalled what had happened when he first met Chestnut Snow and spoke up.

"Oh, you still remember that? I was injured when I was a child, and I contracted a cold that has never fully healed since."

"I've been taking medicine for it, so don't worry. As long as I don't go out in cold weather, I'll be fine."

Chestnut Snow looked at Uchiha Matsuzaki and smiled.

A cold, that's not a major issue. In my original world, this illness was quite common, but fortunately, there are ways to cure it completely. Uchiha Matsuzaki rubbed his chin in thought.

"It's fine, leave it to me. It's not a big problem. I happen to have done some research in this area, and I believe I can definitely cure you."

Uchiha Matsuzaki said to Chestnut Snow with an expression full of confidence.

Seeing Uchiha Matsuzaki so confident, Chestnut Snow smiled and nodded.
