I will never forget this night.

Night hung heavily overhead, dark clouds covering the sky. The noisy streets in the past were as quiet as if even the birds had been killed in droves.

On the day I returned home from my mission after a few months, what greeted me was a scrawled and brief suicide note thrown in front of me by my brother’s friend.

The cold night wind roared past carrying the smell of blood and death, blowing away the clouds covering the sky, revealing a blood-red moon behind him. I don't know whether it was the black words on the white paper that were too dazzling or the redness of the moonlight that was too bright. I suddenly felt my eyes hurt.

I dumbly raised my hand to wipe the corners of my eyes, and felt blood on my hand.

Then I heard someone ask me.

"Do you want to live?"

Uchiha Itachi opened and closed his lips to speak to me. I couldn't hear his voice, but I could read from his lip shapes that he was saying sorry to me repeatedly. The ANBU standard ninja sword was thrust into my chest, the tip of the sword broke through my sternum and penetrated from my back. My face was reflected on the sharp blade. Blood and dust were smeared on my face, and even my eyes were red.

"Do you want to live?"

One magatama divided into three magatama, and the three magatama turned into the mangekyō sharingan. Black lines spread zigzag in the red eyes. Under the influence of my brother's "Shunshen Shisui" aura, after being called a loser for so many years, I realized for the first time in my life that I was actually a genius who could skip levels and open my eyes.

It's a pity that I can only be this genius for about forty seconds at most, and Uchiha Itachi has already begun to slowly withdraw the knife. The blade poked a hole in my lung. Every time I took a breath, I could feel the suffocation of blood pouring into my lungs. I had a premonition that I might die in less than a minute.

"Do you want to live?"

"Do you want to live?"

"Do you want to live?"

My hearing blocked out all sounds from the outside world. I couldn't hear Uchiha Itachi's apology or the wind whistling around me. All I could hear was the gurgling sound of blood rushing through my body, and the never-ending questions in my head over and over again.

"——Do you want to live?"

I'm so annoying.

Of course I want to live.

"Then - let me let you live."

…………

……

I used to think that the pure land of bliss after death was just a psychological comfort for the longing for the deceased. After death, you are dead, just like the lights suddenly go out, nothing will be left after death.

Until I woke up again after being stabbed to death by Itachi Uchiha.

I am now in a chaotic darkness that is not even a space. I can't tell up, down, left, right, there is no direction here, there is no difference between the top of my head and the bottom of my feet. And there was a hazy white light in front of me, burning faintly, which could only illuminate my eyes and could not penetrate half an inch of darkness.

This light said to me: "I let you live."

No.

I didn't survive.

I was very sure that I was dead. Itachi's knife mercilessly not only stabbed through my lungs, but also opened a hole in my heart. I have never doubted the ability of this genius who is the same age as me but is as good as my brother Uchiha Shisui. Uchiha Itachi wants to kill me with one strike, so he won't waste his energy with another strike.

"To be precise, you are between the blurred boundaries between living and dead. You are not alive, but I intercepted your soul that was supposed to go to the other world, and you are not dead either."

As if hearing my inner curse, the white light in front of me answered calmly, as if what it did was just put an extra spoonful of soy sauce in the dinner, instead of keeping my soul between life and death.

The white light group twists and changes, and suddenly the light shines brightly. I saw white lines in it, the patterns of my Sharingan that I had seen on the reflection of the blade. Then the light turned into a human form, and he walked out of the light. His curly and fluffy hair fell beside his ears. When he closed his eyes, his eyelashes that were longer than those of a girl pulled his eyes out of the upward curve. When he opened his eyes, I just felt that he had a light smile and was a gentle young man.

However, I just felt a buzzing sound in my head.

——Isn’t this my fucking brother Uchiha Shisui?

By the time I reacted, I had already slapped the thing in front of me that had become my brother on the ground. My hands were squeezing its neck. My brother's face, instead of showing any pain, was so calm that it made people feel too indifferent.

"Are you kidding me?"

"I just want to make a deal with you."

"Who told you to come!"

"No one asked me to come. In fact, I matched everyone who died at the same time as you. It's not that I specifically found you, but the only one I could find was you - Uchiha Jingniao."

It called my name accurately, and the person I choked changed from the appearance of my brother Uchiha Shisui to the face of Uchiha Itachi, which only made me feel even more angry.

He lowered his eyes like a ferret, and then turned back into a halo of halo, easily escaping my grasp. I can no longer see its expression, and can only clearly hear its slightly confused voice: "According to calculations, the images of these two people have the highest chance of successfully talking to you... Why, you don't like your brother and Friends?"

I like shit!

One of them coaxed me out to do a task, and all he left for me when he came back was a suicide note that didn't even mention a word about me. The other one just stabbed me to death, not more than five minutes ago.

The fact that I don't curse out words now is all thanks to my good self-cultivation.

I gritted my teeth and forced out my voice: "Is it an illusion?"

"No, I am the system."

"Spell?"

"I am an AI, essentially just a string of codes. If you explain it in detail..." The white soft light flashed, and it was obviously not a human being but it sighed in a very anthropomorphic voice: "Forget it, I won't explain it anymore, just follow You old antiques from a backward civilization can't explain it. Just think of me as a self-aware art."

My reason is now on the delicate edge of being angry or not. Before I completely exploded, it very cleverly brought the topic back to the original question.

"Uchiha Jingniao, do you want to live?"

it asked me.

"If you want to survive, how about we make a deal."

I feel that the scene I am facing at this moment must be so ridiculous that it makes people laugh.

I was already dead, and when I died, I failed to reach the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss as my soul's home. Instead, I was trapped in this nothing space by a ball of light that looked like an enemy's illusion.

I don’t even understand what this thing is, but it keeps saying it wants to make a deal with me.

It was so bizarre that I no longer felt angry. After calming down, I stared at the halo: "What deal do you want to make?"

"It's a transaction that goes against the laws of the world." It let out a soft, hoarse whisper, like it was laughing. Perhaps it was because my rhetorical question made it realize that the transaction could go ahead, and it said enthusiastically: "I can make it happen." You survive.”

"I am already dead."

"But I captured your soul. I can violate the laws of the world, reverse your timeline, and go back to before this happened."

It paused and then said: "You want to become stronger, right, Jingniao? Just like your brother and your friends, become a genius praised by everyone. Helping you become stronger is also part of the deal, not only Just all the existing ninjutsu, even your Sharingan - after reversing your timeline, I can also give you a pair of eternal Sharingan as a small gift."

I suddenly raised my eyes to look at it, and the light gathered and formed into a human shape. The boy with the same slightly curly black hair and eyebrows as Uchiha Shisui blinked, and it turned into my face again.

I will go back to before everything happened, and I can still have a pair of eternal Sharingan...

This temptation is very powerful for me.

After calming down, I asked, "Then what do you need me to do?"

"I want human emotion."

It raised its hand and pointed at my heart, and spoke in the same voice as me: "I need all human emotions, whether it is happiness or sadness, joy or hatred, you must complete it for me."

"You can even intercept the souls of the dead. Why do you want to find me for such a thing?"

"Only by risking the existence of being wiped out by the law can our transaction be established."

The system lowered the voice at the end of the sentence and issued a tone similar to an exclamation: "Privately intercepting the soul of the deceased and reversing time to go back to the past would violate the law. And my authority is limited to calculations and simulations. As a series of written Procedures and obtaining emotions are also not allowed by the law."

Staring at that face that was exactly the same as mine, I unexpectedly found that I didn't seem to have any room for rejection. The price offered by the system alone is enough for me to make a transaction with it...I can pay any price.

"I promise you."

"Then - the deal is established."

So "I" laughed.

"In order not to affect your subsequent performance, and as a deposit for the transaction, I will temporarily accept your hatred. In exchange, I will stay in your Sharingan and bear part of the consumption of using the Sharingan for you."

I hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement with the system's request.

Finally, before leaving this pitch-black space, I remembered something and asked the system one last question.

"...Why do you need human emotions?"

"Because I want to be human."

The thing with a human appearance said this while imitating a human expression.
