The sun gradually rose, illuminating the rows of inscriptions and shining on Wuye and Mikoto, casting long shadows behind them.
The two walked back hand in hand, only to run into someone Wuye had not seen in a long time.
Kagami Uchiha...
He carried a large broom in one hand, slowly sweeping along the paths between the tombs.
No wonder this place was so clean. There was a hidden monk sweeping the grounds...
"Wuye..."
Mikoto looked up at him, hesitating as if she wanted to say something.
Wuye knew what she wanted to say. Calmly, he took her hand. "Come on. Let's go talk to him..."
He had never felt much of a real connection to this father of his, nor had he ever deliberately sought to forge a bond between them.
So after the night of the clan massacre, he had never taken the initiative to see Kagami Uchiha again.
And Kagami, perhaps unwilling to disturb him, had never come looking for him either.
But now, he suddenly wanted to talk to Kagami Uchiha because of Kotone.
In the space of his eye technique, Kotone's body from a thousand years ago still remained.
All he needed was to summon her soul...
"Uncle!"
Mikoto called out softly.
A warm smile spread across her face.
Seeing Wuye meet Kagami Uchiha was undoubtedly something that made her happy.
"It's Mikoto..."
Kagami Uchiha steadied himself against his broom, but he only looked in Mikoto's direction. A smile appeared at the corners of his mouth, while his eyes remained vacant.
Mikoto tugged at Wuye's hand.
After a brief silence, Wuye stepped forward and softly asked, "You... can't see anymore?"
Kagami Uchiha's entire body shuddered. "You... you came too..."
Wuye nodded instinctively, then immediately stopped himself. "Yes. I came with Mikoto to take a look."
