"Since we've finished discussing this matter, let's adjourn." Uchiha Tianchang was already preparing to rise and end the meeting.
The assembled senior members were somewhat bewildered, and someone immediately asked, "Clan Head, didn't you say there were several matters? Why are we ending after just one?"
"Originally, because the battle at the Clan Meeting inflicted heavy losses on the Uchiha Clan, I felt I had failed both our ancestors and my position as Uchiha Clan Head. So I intended to resign and let Uchiha Fugaku take over as head of the Family. But the Family is going through a difficult period now, so let me handle some of the unpleasant things.

"The battle at the Clan Meeting was the Second Elder's fault, not yours, Clan Head. We still need you to oversee the Family's affairs."
"I didn't say I was stepping down right now. I'll resign once the Family has stabilized for the time being. Besides, stepping down doesn't mean I'll stop working. I'll still do my part for the Family's endeavors. My mind is made up. There's no need to discuss this further." With that, Uchiha rose and left.
