Just as the teacher was about to explain in more detail, the head of student affairs knocked on the door. "Is Uchiha Hikari here?"
Uchiha Hikari immediately stood up and shouted, "Yes... yes!"
The head of student affairs nodded, beckoned to Uchiha Hikari, and said, "Someone's looking for you. Come out for a moment."
Uchiha Hikari was filled with confusion, wondering who would come looking for him, until he went outside and saw Uchiha Takashi standing not far away.
Uchiha Takashi saw Uchiha Hikari and walked up to him with a embarrassed expression, covering his face as he said, "Um... Hikaru, you won't be staying in that room anymore."
You will live with me from now on, and I will be responsible for raising you.
It took Uchiha Takashi a long time to finally say this; the suggestion was put forward by Kyō Uchiha and Tatsu Uchiha.
They believed that since Uchiha Hikari was also a Mangekyō Sharingan user, but was too young, he needed to be nurtured for a period of time, so the task of training him should naturally be entrusted to Uchiha Takashi.
As the most idle yet strongest member of the entire clan, and also the clan head, who else would you entrust such a promising junior to if not Uchiha Takashi?
Are we really going to send this Mangekyō Sharingan user to an orphanage? What kind of development could that possibly provide? Luckily, the clan head Uchiha Takashi, also has the Mangekyō Sharingan; perhaps he could teach Uchiha Hikari how to control Mangekyō Sharingan.
Despite Uchiha Takashi's best efforts to decline and explain, the two elders remained unmoved, insisting that Uchiha Takashi personally train Uchiha Hikari. Therefore, Uchiha Takashi ultimately had no choice but to accept their proposal.
Upon hearing this news, Uchiha Hikari blinked, then his eyes widened suddenly. "You, me, you? I..."
It was obvious that Uchiha Hikari was incoherent because the incident had happened so suddenly.
Uchiha Takashi quickly reassured him, saying, " Little Hikari, I know this might be hard for you to accept, but... as a Mangekyō Sharingan expert from our clan, we can't just let a Mangekyō Sharingan roam freely outside."
Cultivating the Mangekyō Sharingan is very important to the family, so... you'll have to leave it to me from now on.
Uchiha Hikari looked up at Uchiha Takashi's face, then asked innocently, "So, does that mean I have family now?"
Uchiha Takashi was taken aback for a moment, then a smile crept onto his lips, "Of course, from now on, I'm your family. You can rest assured and rely on me as family."
"Hmm!" Upon hearing Uchiha Takashi's reply, Uchiha Hikari Hikaru's expression immediately brightened, at least losing its previous lifelessness.
"Alright, that's all for today's lesson. I'll take you to my house to familiarize yourself with the area. You can check out the surroundings first," Uchiha Takashi said, taking Uchiha Hikari's hand and leading her outside.
Along the way, Uchiha Hikari asked Uchiha Takashi many questions, such as what her future life would be like, what her daily routine would be like, and what she would do.
Uchiha Hikari had many questions, and many of them were repeated, as if he wanted to reiterate his points.
Uchiha Takashi patiently answered all these questions; he always showed extra patience towards these children living in suffering.
Soon, the two arrived at Uchiha Takashi's family residence. It wasn't very large, because Uchiha Takashi believed that a house didn't need to be big; a cozy atmosphere was enough.
The moment he pushed open the door, he heard a different noise coming from inside. Uchiha Takashi followed the sound and found a familiar little figure.
It was only then that Hyuga Yō Uchiha Takashi remembered that, due to the clan's large-scale purge, those responsible for supervising Hyuga Yō were also on the purge list.
The orphanage has not yet been established and will require some more time.
So, Hyuga Yō temporarily stayed at the home of the Uchiha Clan Head, who was as idle as could be.
I heard this suggestion came from the head of the Hyuga Clan; I wonder what his true intentions were.
"Alright, Hikaru, come over and introduce yourself. This is Yao, Hyuga Yō. She'll be staying at my place temporarily, and you'll be roommates from now on."
Uchiha Takashi said to Uchiha Hikari, who was following behind him, "You two should get along well from now on. As peers, you two should have a lot in common, right?"
Following behind, Uchiha Hikari looked at Hyuga Yō inside and suddenly sensed a strange hostility. Hyuga Yō's eyes seemed to be filled with some inexplicable hostility.
It seems that Hyuga Yō does not welcome her arrival.
And that was indeed the case. Hyuga Yō couldn't quite explain what she was thinking, but she felt a deep dissatisfaction when she saw Uchiha Hikari, as if her territory had been invaded.
Uchiha Hikari glared back defiantly. She was no delicate little girl; she possessed strength and skill! Could someone with the Mangekyō Sharingan be a pushover?
Hyuga Yō wasn't intimidated and glared back defiantly, even to the point that the veins on her forehead were bulging and her Byakugan were practically rolling back in her head.
Uchiha Takashi also noticed the situation on both sides and sensed something was wrong, so he immediately stepped into the middle.
"What are you two doing? You'll be roommates in the future, maybe even friends. Why can't you get along well? Why do you look like you're about to fight the moment you meet?"
Uchiha Hikari looked up. "It wasn't me, it was me who sensed something was off about the way she was looking at me! She didn't seem to welcome me!"
Hyuga Yō's eyes widened suddenly. "We're not sisters, and you're tattling on me?" she thought. She quickly protested, "No! I just feel a little unwell."
Uchiha Takashi sighed and rubbed his forehead, saying, "You guys are just being possessive. Yao, because you've been living here all this time, you've made this place your home."
So when people hear that others are going to live here permanently, they feel like their territory is being invaded, which leads to resentment and dissatisfaction. This is human nature; just restrain it.
After saying this, Uchiha Takashi went into the room, saying, "I still have work to do. If there's nothing else, you're free to do as you please."
Uchiha Hikari narrowed her eyes. She didn't sense any dissatisfaction about having her territory encroached on from this Hyuga Clan's Byakugan. This Hyuga Clan's dissatisfaction must be due to other reasons!
Meanwhile, Uchiha Takashi, who had found an excuse to hide in his room, began to ponder. He hadn't considered the size of the house when he moved in.
Now it seems they are indeed a bit too young, and it looks like Hyuga Yō and Uchiha Hikari are prone to conflict, which is not good. It seems we need to find an opportunity to educate them about mental health at school...
