Konoha, however, was eerily calm.♜🍪 ♗😈
It was as if the calamity-like phenomenon had all been an illusion.
Uchiha Kei found it quite amusing. It reminded him of something that had happened in his previous life.
One day at noon in middle school, the sky suddenly went dark—so dark that even the sun vanished.
Kei was sensitive by nature and thought the apocalypse had arrived, but his classmates didn't seem to react much. That was until one guy shouted in the classroom, "Hey, holy crap, does this mean we don't have to go to class?"
A few minutes later, the sky brightened again, and the cheering stopped. The teacher even chuckled disdainfully and said, "It was just a solar eclipse. What's there to make such a fuss about?"
That wasn't the strange part. The strange part was that years later, when Kei went to a middle school reunion and brought it up with his classmates, not a single one of them remembered that the sky had done anything like that back in middle school.
But so what? Kei had gone on living a peaceful life afterward. After all, something like that didn't affect his monthly salary of 3,200 yuan.
The same was probably true now. The incident was over, and the people of the Land of Fire still had to live their lives. If they weren't dead, then nothing mattered more than what they'd eat at their next meal.
