Chapter 12

After getting a bath and putting on clothes, I go downstairs. I go to the kitchen and decide to cook something light. I put two pieces of bread into the toaster and took two eggs from the fridge.

After a couple of minutes, I have a simple yet delicious Egg Toast.

As I was about to eat the toast, the system appeared.

|It has been a week! Your gift is ready! Do you want to take it?|

|Accept?| |Y/N|

I sigh, take a bite of my food, and press the Y button. After waiting for a few seconds, something happens. A rush of knowledge gets inside my head, but it is not as bad. However, what catches my attention is the warm feeling rushing through my body.

|Congratulations! You get Senjutsu (Naruto)|

The knowledge I gained is how to use Senjutsu. This technique did not need me to have any Chakra Pathway, as it is a technique that controls the Natural Energy of the world and absorbs it directly into my body.

I can use Senjutsu without a chakra pathway, but if I have one, it can boost my Senjutsu by quite a lot because it has become Senjutsu Chakra instead of just Senjutsu.

However, in return, this method makes learning Senjutsu easier and safer. The Chakra pathway is the one that makes anyone not careful in practicing Senjutsu get turned into stone. It makes them imbalanced.

Sadly, this method also has a second weakness. Other than being weaker, it directly connects me to Nature, and if I'm a weak-willed man, I will get overwhelmed by the hatred of nature. I can get mad if I'm not careful. I need to absorb the Natural Energy and slowly purify them.

Hmmm, should I test it? I have three hours before Karin and Yuki arrive. Today is a free day; I don't have anything to do. I guess meditating and trying my new skill is a must.

I eat all the food and go to the living room. I will do it on the couch.

|3rd POV|

While Ryan is busy meditating and gathering Natural Energy, he does not notice something change in his surroundings. To the mundane people, the air around his house gets fresher, but for the youkai, the Natural Energy is purer than before.

Yuki and Karin, who are near Ryan's house, suddenly release a moan when they feel the natural energy around this area. Their entire body shudders as if they just experienced the biggest orgasm in their entire life.

"T-The Natural Energy is so pure~."

"Nyaaaa~"

With great effort, they somehow get inside Ryan's house. However, it is a bad idea as their body shudders once more when they get inside the living room.

"The N-Natural Energy… is even thicker!"

Without them knowing, Karin and Yuki walk toward Ryan and rub their head on Ryan's body. They even purr.

After five more minutes, Ryan finally opens his eyes and releases a sigh while smiling. However, his smile becomes confused when he sees Karin and Yuki purring beside him.

"Karin? Yuki? What are you doing?"

Karin and Yuki look at him for a second while smiling.

"Ne~ Do you want to mate with me? I want kits!"

"Nyaaaa~ Ryan~ Ryan~ I want onigiri~ I want tuna Onigiri~"

Karin and Yuki are now drunk because of the high amount of pure Natural Energy. They just absorb a high amount of pure Natural Energy, and now they experience a Euphoric state, just like how heroin works. However, this time it is good for you as it ejects the impurity out of your body and enchants it.

Seeing he will not get any answer, Ryan slowly pushes them away from him and walks to the kitchen. He looks at the clock and decides to cook some lunch. After hearing what Yuki wants, he decides to make something made from Tuna.

He takes out frozen tuna and cuts them into pieces. While doing that, Ryan decides to make two types of Tuna Onigiri, the first one is spicy tuna and the second one will be salty tuna. After cutting the tune into pieces, he makes the rice for the onigiri.

While Ryan is busy cooking for their lunch, Yuki and Karin snap from their paradise half an hour after Ryan walks away. They look at each other for a few seconds, and their faces start to get red from embarrassment. They remember what happened, and now they get embarrassed.

"Karin? Yuki? Are you guys awake? I'm the kitchen."

Ryan shouts from the kitchen as he puts a plate of food on the table. Karin and Yuki quickly get off the couch and run to the kitchen.

"What the hell was that?!"

"What is that, nyaa?!"

Ryan looks at them in confusion and says.

"What? What was what?"

"That!"

Both of them point their fingers at Ryan, who looks even more confused.

"What?"

"Natural Energy! How can you use that?!"

Yuki nods at Karin's question.

"Oh? This? I try to use Senjutsu and manage to do that."

"It is not supposed to do that!"

"Yeah! You are not supposed to be releasing Natural Energy!"

Ryan looks at them in confusion and says.

"What do you mean? That is how Senjutsu works, right?"

Karin and Yuki look at him as if he is a human from another universe. Yuki shakes her head and says.

"No! Senjutsu is an art that commands the Natural Energy to your will and uses it to strengthen your body and attack."

"What?"

Karin sighs at his confused expression and says.

"You did not release Natural Energy, Ryan. You make sure to trap them inside your body and hold the hatred of the world so you will not go mad."

"Are you serious? Is that how you guys train your Senjutsu?"

Ryan's jaw drops when he sees them nodding their heads. A second later, he releases a long sigh.

"I guess I now know the reason why Natural Energy is so full of hatred. You guys only take them and never once give back what you take."

"Huh?"

Karin and Yuki tilt their heads and make confused expressions.

"A practitioner of Senjutsu is called a Sage! Sage's job is to make sure Nature does not get angry. To make that happen, you must filter the Natural Energy you absorb. Also, you did not force them. You must gently guide them through your body and destroy all the impurities. After that, you will release them."

"Then what do we get?"

"Nature is fair. You help it, and it will give something to you. After you release that newly purified Natural Energy, some will stick to you. It is not much, but if you meditate for ten minutes, you will have enough Natural Energy inside your body to turn you into Sage Mode."

Ryan blinks for a second when he sees Karin and Yuki have a notepad in their hands and write what he said. As he is about to say more, Yuki raises her hand.

"Yeah, what is it, Yuki?"

"What is Sage Mode?"

Ryan sighs and says.

"It looks like we will not go to the park. Let's start from the beginning."
