Naruto: They Have Systems

So Uchiha Mikoto did not know Uchiha Yin's situation all that well.

Could Yin have given up his bad habits long ago? Had my prejudice made me misunderstand him all this time?

Someone with a more fiery temper, like Kushina Uzumaki or Tsunade, would have suspected Yin immediately.

But gentle by nature, Mikoto's first instinct was to blame herself, and a trace of guilt rose in her heart.

It showed just how awful Yin used to be: he had made even gentle Mikoto treat him like a stranger.

Seeing her expression, Yin assumed she was having trouble adjusting to his "change" and smiled.

"People grow up, don't they?"

Chapter 17: Sharing a Bed

"Yes, people do grow up. I'm sorry, cousin. I was wrong before."

Mikoto smiled gently and offered him a sincere apology.

This was nothing like her earlier apology. Back then, the system had forced her to apologize, and she had done it grudgingly.

This time, she apologized of her own free will. The thought that she had misunderstood Yin for so long left her feeling guilty.

"It's fine. We've cleared up the misunderstanding. Just cook for me every day from now on. I don't want to eat out anymore."

Yin said it jokingly.

Before this, even when the two of them were home together, Mikoto had cooked only for herself. That said plenty about their relationship.

"Mm, I can do that. Consider it my way of making it up to you." Mikoto smiled, tilted her head slightly to the right, and nodded.

Deep down, Mikoto was relieved that she and Yin had made up.

She was naturally gentle and considerate, someone who valued a peaceful home. It had taken real resolve for her to ignore Yin the way she had.

Now that she had discovered he had long since changed the awful personality she remembered, she was overjoyed.

Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have completed Side Quest One. Your proficiency in Fire Release Chakra Nature Transformation has increased by one, and the Main Quest is now unlocked.

Main Quest One: As a girl obsessed with her younger cousin, become Uchiha Yin's girlfriend before he graduates. Reward upon completion: unlock the Three-Tomoe Sharingan and gain a 10% chance to learn Majestic Destroyer Flame. Penalty for failure: you will be forced to make the first move on Uchiha Yin.

Side Quest Two: Now that Uchiha Yin, your younger cousin, has forgiven you, take your relationship a step further. Share a bed with him once within one week. Reward upon completion: master Lightning Release Chakra Nature Transformation. Penalty for failure: you will be forced to lie naked in Uchiha Yin's arms for one night.

The system's voice rang out again, and Mikoto's smile froze.

She could feel her understanding of Fire Release Chakra Nature Transformation deepen in an instant, but the new quests seized her attention far more than the boost in strength.

Share a bed with Yin? What kind of joke was that?

She and Yin had made up, but she still could not accept the system demanding that she share a bed with him.

The Naruto World was not like the world Yin had lived in before. Children here generally matured early, and many became aware of the differences between boys and girls at five or six.

In the original story, Sasuke already had a crowd of young admirers following him when he was still so little.

How could Mikoto possibly accept sharing a bed with Yin under those circumstances?

But when she looked at the system's penalty, Mikoto had no choice but to resign herself to it.
