Konoha: This Sasuke has Tivat

Chapter 17 Paimon's Questions and Doubts of the Genocide Night

After receiving the rewards from the Adventurer's Association, Sasuke and Paimon found a bench at the gate of the city near the fruit wine lake.

Fruit Wine Lake surrounds the natural freshwater lake of Mond City. The wide lake surface and sparkling waves have remained unchanged for thousands of years. The water is crystal clear and the entrance is clear and sweet.

It is this kind of water source that has made the famous wine of Mond, and made the fruit wine lake one of the important symbols of Mond.

Of course, these are the introductions of the tour guide Paimon. Sasuke has no special feelings about this, but just feels that he can enjoy the cool breeze and sit more comfortably.

"By the way, Sasuke, speaking of it, you haven't told me in detail what the world you live in is like."

Paimon pointed to Sasuke's chest and said.

"And I can feel that you seem to be suppressing something all the time. I rarely see you laughing, and what Avengers you said to Kaya before."

"We are partners now, right? Shouldn't partners understand each other better? Can you tell me, maybe there is something I can help you with."

Sasuke pondered.

"my world……"

It seems that there is nothing that cannot be said, but about his life experience... the uncontrolled opening of Sharingan.

Sasuke immediately thought of the night of the genocide, and then all that came to his mind was endless pain and anger.

Uchiha is a big family, and the clansmen all live together. Although there are many clan members, the only ones who really have a lot of feelings for him seem to be his parents and...that man, Uchiha Itachi.

brother.

Regarding the night of genocide, what Sasuke felt most uncomfortable was not the death of his clansmen, but the betrayal of his closest and most trusted brother.

Before the Uchiha clan was exterminated, he loved his brother and admired Itachi very much. He used Itachi as an example and tried his best to learn from him.

After the Uchiha exterminated the clan, all he could do seemed to be revenge.

And the only object of revenge is Itachi.

Relying on, looking up to, and hating at the same time, his feelings for Uchiha Itachi should be both love and hate.

Sasuke told Paimon roughly about himself and about the night of genocide.

And Paimon took on the duties of a listener very well, without being funny, and listened to Sasuke's confession without saying a word.

After Sasuke finished speaking, his palms were already clenched, and his fingers were tightly clenched together.

When he was in Konoha, he basically buried this matter in his heart, and he basically didn't tell anyone about it. Instead, in this different world, he exposed his heart to Paimon, a strange creature.

"I really didn't expect that you would have such a complicated past."

Paimon floated to Sasuke's face, gently stroking Sasuke's hair.

After a while, Paimon said:
"Sasuke, you said that you had a good relationship with your brother since you were a child, but suddenly one day, your brother... changed his temperament drastically? Then he killed all the people in the clan."

"I feel a little strange?"

"...What's so strange?"

Sasuke raised his head and looked directly at Paimon.

The scarlet Sharingan stared straight at Paimon.

Paimon was a little frightened by the stares and unconsciously shrank his hands, but he continued:
"Hmm... There is an old saying in Liyue of Tevat, that is, those who are in power are obsessed, but those who are bystanders are clear. I think you have been in the center of the vortex, so you will ignore some things instead."

"For example... Although your brother is a genius among geniuses, but your family, such a large group of people, were all killed by your brother alone? There was no movement at all?"

"Does your brother have any other helpers?"

This sentence made Sasuke startled.

He really hadn't thought about this issue.

Still he said:
"It was midnight at that time, and Uchiha Itachi himself is a top assassination master who can enter ANBU..."

"But aren't your parents also very strong? They are the clan leaders after all."

Paimon immediately added.

"..."

Sasuke was silent.

"And why was it that you were left behind after the entire clan was killed?"

Paimon asked.

"That's because he wants me to live in an ugly way, and make me live in more pain..."

"He wants me to live in hell!"

Sasuke lost control of his emotions when he said this, half growling.

"But, why? According to your description, you were obviously such good brothers before, why would you want to hide your ugly existence for no reason? It stands to reason that the entire family should be exterminated, and everyone should be killed. Why did you stay? Let me let you take revenge on him?"

Paimon's words stabbed Sasuke's chest like a knife, but it seemed to break through a layer of fog.

Yeah, why?

Sasuke froze again.

He once again recalled what Uchiha Itachi said to him after the night of genocide.

Stupid brother, if you want to kill me, then hate me!Hate me!Then live an ugly life, run away, run away, and try your best to survive.

Why did he kill everyone but leave himself alone?

He worked hard to learn and practice ninjutsu so that one day he could take revenge on Uchiha Itachi who destroyed his life with his own hands.

"Maybe... because of Sharingan?"

Sasuke said in a low voice.

"Itachi Uchiha said that he exterminated the clan to measure his own strength. He kept me here to test his own strength and... let the Sharingan grow..."

Paimon touched his head.

"Although I don't really want to say that, but don't you really think it's far-fetched?"

"From your description, your brother was a very good person when he was a child. But suddenly he became like this. I feel like something must have happened."

"He killed all his family members. It is indeed very hateful. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is not as good as a beast, but I feel that there must be something else hidden in it, and from my perspective as a bystander, he seems to be protecting you. "

"protect me?"

Sasuke laughed.

"He did this to protect me? Paimon, do you want to listen to what you are saying? What do you know!"

"Don't worry, Sasuke, I'm just talking casually, it's just a possibility."

Paimon saw that Sasuke's expression was getting more and more distorted, and quickly waved his hand to explain.

"I always feel that there are other secrets in it, but I don't know the specifics. Maybe only your brother Uchiha Itachi knows the truth of the matter."

Sasuke stopped talking, closed his eyes, and leaned on the bench.

After a while, he said wearily:

"Sorry, Paimon, I was a little loud just now."

"It's okay, it's okay, Sasuke, it's me who should apologize...I'm stupid, I...shouldn't be talking nonsense."

Pamon waved quickly.

"No, your words did remind me. It's just that I have been immersed in revenge and hatred for these years and have not escaped."

"I carefully recalled a lot of details. I was still young at that time and I didn't think about many things carefully at the time. But just now, I recalled it again and I did find a lot of doubts."

"I'll investigate after I get back."

"Thank you, Paimon, you reminded me."
