Fang Wuwei originally thought that evolving to Mangekyo would be an easy evolution, and was just thinking of taking a comfortable bath first, but was quickly pulled back to reality by intense pain.
The terrible pain seemed to tear and crush his brain. This was a terrible suffering he had never felt, even when seriously injured. A sense of fear couldn't help but emerge from the bottom of his heart.
This... is... what?!
System!!!!!
Even though Fang Wuwei called out countless times in his mind, and even shouted out loud, the System never appeared.
The terrible pain made Fang Wuwei uncontrollably curl up and roll on the ground. Finally, after an unknown period of pain, a sense of despair emerged from the bottom of his heart.
It was with the appearance of this despair that his pain instantly disappeared, and his vision became clear, with only a trail of blood tears flowing from his right eye, which had transformed into a Mangekyo.
Evolution complete, Three Tomoe Sharingan → Kaleidoscope Sharingan. Quality: B-rank → A-rank. Further evolution to Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan requires 100,000 points. Host's points are insufficient.
Fang Wuwei lay sprawled on the ground, still not recovered from the intense pain, even though it had vanished without a trace.
He really wanted to curse right now. Are you kidding me with this? Aren't you afraid of killing me?!
Forget it... as long as the result is good.
Fang Wuwei stood up and looked at the Sharingan in the mirror, which had changed significantly. With a thought, the three tomoe began to spin and gather, forming the shape of a triangular pinwheel.
Itachi Uchiha's? Yes... Tsukuyomi, Amaterasu, those are Itachi Uchiha's.
Fang Wuwei couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He originally thought he could awaken his own unique Mangekyo.
Well... never mind. Itachi's are also pretty awesome, and a single Sharingan contains the functions of a pair. The System's products are always top-notch.
He still had over 30,000 points now. Fang Wuwei decided to spend 10,000 points to evolve Imposing Might. This skill was very useful, and he wondered if it would give him any surprises.
Evolution complete, Imposing Might → Prestige plus. Quality: B-rank → A-rank. Prestige plus. Description: The host's hands are itching, and he is very, very eager to fight. The next five attacks will be strengthened.
It only increased the number of uses by 3, but it cost him 10,000 points. What a huge loss.
Soaking in the bathtub, Fang Wuwei decided to temporarily stop the System's evolution. He wanted to enjoy his present leisure time...
But what about school?
Forget it... I'll think about it after I finish bathing...
And so, Fang Wuwei soaked in the bathtub for a very, very long time...
— — — — This is a cute dividing line — — — —
At this moment, at Yuta's home, everyone, including Yuta and Kuzuha, was restless.
Fang wuwei had been missing for almost a month now, with no news. Even after calling the police, nothing was found inside Fang wuwei's house except for a strange stone sculpture that couldn't be moved at all, and many missing person posters had been put up...
In the first week of his disappearance, everyone in their class went from disdain for Fang wuwei to panic. Even if he was dodging a confession as a scumbag, he wouldn't hide for a week, would he? And he skipped all his classes without asking for leave.
Even Rikka asked the Totsuka family to get involved in the search. This was the first time Yuta had seen how rich the Totsukami family was.
But what was even more outrageous was that even with the Totsukami family's involvement in the investigation, almost turning this area of Tokyo upside down, Fang wuwei still couldn't be found.
At this point, they finally panicked and began actively searching...
Until today, he still couldn't be found. Most people even decided to hold a funeral for him in the classroom tomorrow, on the exact one-month anniversary of Fang wuwei's disappearance...
Only Yuta and Kuzuha were unwilling to give up and were still actively searching...
Until...
Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling ~
Yuta wearily picked up the phone on the table and answered it without looking. He was already physically and mentally exhausted. Fang wuwei's matter had made him unable to eat or sleep well during this period.
"Moshi moshi, is that Yuta?"
A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone. Yuta's tired eyes instantly cleared, and he incredulously took the phone away to look at the caller ID—Fang Wuwei.
After a full five seconds of stunned, Yuta shouted at Fang Wuwei on the other end of the phone,
"You scoundrel!!! Where have you been all this time!!!"
Fang Wuwei, who had just finished bathing on the other end, realized that a month had passed on his side. He quickly called Yuta to report his safety, but unexpectedly, the other party opened with a furious roar, almost deafening Fang Wuwei, whose hearing was now greatly enhanced.
"Do you know how hard we've been looking for you all this time!! Do you know how we felt after you disappeared!!…You scoundrel, where are you now?!"
"I... I'm home..."
"You're okay?!"
"I... I'm fine..."
"Then you just disappeared without a trace for a whole month!!!!"
Listening to Yuta's mixed surprise, anger, and crying voice on the other end of the phone, Fang Wuwei felt very sorry for Yuta. Pulling open the curtains to get some fresh air, he saw the streets plastered with missing person posters—they were looking for him, but the contact information left was Yuta's mother's phone number and his own email.
At this moment, Fang Wuwei fully realized how much effort and how many attempts Yuta had made to find him and help him.
He couldn't help but feel a little touched. Having almost never experienced friendship in his past life, he understood for the first time the beauty of friends.
But... how much of this friendship belonged to Fang Wuwei, and how much belonged to Fang Wuwei?
His heart felt a little constricted.
"Hello, hello... Brother Wuwei?"
A sweet female voice came from the other end of the phone, but it carried a hint of a sob.
It was Kuzuha. Yuta was restless, and Kuzuha was too.
"Ah... Kuzuha... um..."
"Mm... it's good that you're back..."
This short sentence almost broke Fang Wuwei.
No more sound came from the other end of the phone, but it hadn't hung up. Fang Wuwei put down his phone and slumped onto the sofa, calming himself, suppressing the inexplicably rising agitation in his heart, the inexplicably appearing heartache, and the tears in the depths of his eyes.
For the first time, he felt the warmth of others.
"Fang wuwei... will you come to school tomorrow?"
Yuta's voice came from the other end of the phone. His mood had calmed down a lot now, and he wanted to see Fang Wuwei as soon as possible to confirm his safety.
"Yes, I will."
Without thinking, Fang Wuwei agreed. He felt more relaxed at school.
"Mm... see you tomorrow... When the time comes... I'll definitely give you a good beating! Even if you're trying to dodge a confession, you can't be so heartless!!!!"
"I'm sorry—",
Beep beep beep—
Yuta hung up the phone angrily without listening to Fang Wuwei's explanation, but a smile couldn't help but appear on his lips. Kuzuha was the same; in fact, she had been smiling all along.
On Fang Wuwei's side, after hanging up the phone, he was already lying on the sofa, stroking his chest, lost in thought...
Looking at the countless missed calls and unread emails on his phone, he was a bit tired and didn't plan to reply to them one by one. He just sent an email to Shichimiya to report his safety and then went to bed.
That night, Yuta and Kuzuha slept exceptionally soundly, but only Fang Wuwei suffered from complete insomnia...
— — — — This is a... what? dividing line — — — —
The next day, Fang Wuwei, back at school, stood at the classroom door, somewhat afraid to go in.
To be honest, he was a little afraid to see Yuta and Ninomiya Nanase-sensei now.
But he had to face it, right?
Fang Wuwei took two deep breaths, then abruptly opened the door. Let them scold him, let it be awkward. He'd find an excuse to get by!
But the sight before him made Fang Wuwei completely freeze in place...
Around his seat, almost the entire class was gathered, each holding several yellow talismans covered in charms, as if performing some strange ritual.
Paper money was scattered on the floor, and the blackboard even had the words "Student Fang Wuwei Memorial" written on it.
What was even more outrageous was that on his desk, there was an incense burner with three incense sticks, a small plate of fruit and bread desserts, and some people were even crying, with Shana, who sat in front of him, crying the loudest. Moreover, Ninomiya Nanase-sensei was watching from the podium, even wiping away tears from time to time.
A sad atmosphere permeated the classroom. There was nothing but crying in the air, as if Fang Wuwei had truly died, and everyone was attending his funeral.
However, Fang Wuwei's action of opening the door was a bit too loud, and everyone's gaze was drawn to him. The classroom instantly fell silent.
Fang Wuwei looked at everyone, dumbfounded.
Everyone looked at Fang Wuwei, also dumbfounded.
A long silence, mixed with awkward air, solidified.
Finally, the silence was broken by Fang Wuwei's loud shout,
"What the hell are you guys doing!!!"
Yuta, sitting in his seat, shrugged. He said nothing, just waiting to watch this good show
