Chapter 407 Flight
Chapter 407 Flight
Uchiha clan.
Karin's family.
"Ding ding ding..."
The alarm clock rang, and Karin, with her disheveled hair, snapped her hand on it.
Without her glasses on, she groggily held the alarm clock up to her face.
"Oh dear! How did I sleep for so long!"
Karin's eyes widened suddenly, and she jumped out of bed.
"Mom! Why don't you call me!"
She grumbled as she dressed.
But it was quiet outside. Karin patted her forehead and remembered that Mio had gone to help with the experiment and wouldn't be home for the next couple of days.
Karin hurriedly put on her clothes, grabbed her backpack and comb, and ran out of the clan's territory.
She passed several breakfast shops along the way, but she didn't dare to stop at any of them.
Because Qianyao said there was a mission today.
Qianyao was already waiting for her by the roadside outside the clan's territory.
"Master...Master..."
Karin said breathlessly, "I'm sorry, I'm late."
Chiyo found it somewhat amusing to see Karin's messy hair and the comb in her hand.
"I've let you sleep so long, have you eaten yet?"
Karin's eyes darted around: "Uh..."
When Chiyo saw Karin's eyes darting around, he knew she was about to lie.
He reached out and tapped Karin on the forehead.
"Okay, I'll take you to get something to eat first."
"hey-hey……"
Karin stuck out her tongue sheepishly. She'd been feeling sleepy lately, especially after eating.
Qianyao took Xianglin to a breakfast shop and ordered five set meals.
The set meal includes white rice, miso soup, pickled vegetables, fried fish, and other meats.
These things were all piled up in front of Karin, taking up a very large area.
"Master, aren't you going to eat?"
Karin excitedly pulled out her chopsticks, only to find that there were none in front of Chiyo.
Qianyao shook his head: "I've already eaten, you should eat."
"Alright, let's dig in!" Karin clasped her hands together and began to eat and drink heartily.
Seeing that Karin's hair kept falling down, Chiyo came up behind Karin.
"What, Master?"
"Eat later."
Chiyo first tidied Karin's hair, then took out a chopstick and wrapped it around her hair twice.
He held down her hair, rotated the chopsticks once, hooked them back, and inserted them through her hair.
In just over ten seconds, Chiyo had styled Karin's hair into a bun.
Karin reached up and touched the back of her head, a look of surprise on her face.
Did your master style my hair?
In ancient times in this world, only husbands were allowed to style their wives' hair.
It was only in modern times that the social atmosphere became slightly more open, and the older generation was also allowed to do so.
However, the Uchiha clan is a large clan, and the larger the clan, the more ancient its beliefs tend to be.
When Karin was lost in thought, her face would turn slightly red.
Chiyo was unaware that Karin was overthinking things; he was simply eating because he couldn't easily reach for her plate.
He used to style Liuli's hair like this when he was at home.
Seeing that Karin had stopped eating, she asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"
"Ah... Oh! No." Karin shook her head, then quickly ate.
Karin didn't put down her chopsticks until she had finished all five breakfasts.
Seeing Karin wipe her mouth with her hand again, Chiyo also handed her a tissue.
"Why wipe it with your hands when you have paper? It's all oily."
Karin easily develops this bad habit when she's enjoying her food.
Thinking back to a few days ago in the hospital, she had just eaten and poked her master's face with her finger. I wonder if she got any on her master's face.
"I understand, Master."
Karin glanced at Chiyo furtively, feeling a little embarrassed.
……
Chiyo and Karin arrived in the forest and announced their mission.
"Our Konoha is currently short of many people. People from Kumogakure and Iwagakure have all gone to the border."
"Our mission this time is to launch a long-distance raid on the Cloud Village's forces."
Upon hearing that the mission was so difficult, Karin, who always seemed to thrive on chaos, immediately lit up with excitement.
"That's awesome! Master will definitely beat the Cloud Village people to a pulp again this time!!"
Karin waved her fist, recalling the same thing that happened three years ago when Chiyo also attacked alone.
They beat up the Cloud Village.
Therefore, Karin felt no danger whatsoever.
Seeing her so excited, Qian Yao said seriously, "This time is completely different from the last time."
"They have more people, and they probably won't separate."
"I need you to monitor their movements with Kagura's Mind's Eye at all times, and also to heal me."
Karin listened and nodded.
"I understand, Master. Let's set off now!"
"This time, let's try a faster way to get there."
Karin looked at Chiyo with some curiosity.
After Qianyao closed his eyes and sensed that there were no spies around, sheets of paper kept flying out from his body.
These papers quickly formed a giant wing behind Qianyao.
Karin's mouth formed an "O" shape: "Master...you...you can fly!?"
Qian Yao laughed heartily: "I know a lot more than that."
He reached out and pulled Karin's arm, and with a flap of his wings, a huge updraft lifted the two of them into the sky.
"ah……"
Karin screamed and her body rose rapidly, reaching a height of several hundred meters in the blink of an eye.
The people on the ground have shrunk to the size of ants.
Qianyao didn't actually have much flying experience, but he had very strong control over his body. After only a short period of adaptation, he was able to fly freely.
However, he failed to consider one problem.
That means the faster he flies, the stronger the wind becomes.
After her initial excitement, Karin felt a chill run through her body and clung to Chiyo like a koala.
"Master, I'm so cold!"
When speaking into the wind, Karin could only be heard by Chiyo when she shouted loudly.
The wind rushed into Karin's mouth, making her feel very uncomfortable.
Qianyao realized he hadn't thought things through and pulled Xianglin behind him.
He let Karin lie on his back.
Qianyao simply adjusted the direction of the wing connection, and the wind was instantly blocked.
Are you still cold?
Karin hugged Chiyo's neck, hiding her entire body between the two wings.
My body felt warm and I felt incredibly safe.
She leaned close to Qianyao's ear and said, "It's not cold anymore, Master."
"Hehe, Master, my birthday wish has come true today."
Qianyao asked curiously, "Is your wish to fly?"
Karin shook her head and nestled against the back of Chiyo's neck: "No, I want to sit on Master's lap like before."
Chiyo patted Karin's hair with her other hand: "Karin has to grow up eventually, she can't stay a child forever."
"Yes, I'll grow up eventually," Karin murmured.
However, there was no sign of frustration on his face.
Instead, he whispered something in Qianyao's ear.
Facing the strong wind, Qianyao pinched Xianglin's cheek with his backhand: "You little devil, where did you learn all this?"
"No, Master, please say yes!" Karin pleaded.
"Let's talk about it when you're older."
Chiyo gave a perfunctory reply, clearly not taking Karin's words to heart.
Karin pouted and, her face flushed, climbed onto Chiyo's back.
She had just exhausted all her courage and no longer had the courage to continue speaking.
