Other World Chimera
Live for yourself


So then... I almost forgot to upload it again today. ma bad :p.


A somewhat awkward silence had appeared. Not finding anything else to talk about, Tomoka started thinking about another topic to talk about. A moment later he realized there was a rather obvious topic they had not touched on: ninjas. 


 


"Hey Nozomi because you are an Uchiha and are you all going to be ninjas as well?" Right after Tomoka's question, Nazomi's expression became depressed. It was clear that Tomoka had chosen a rather complicated topic for the girl. 


 


"I don't know if I can be one" It's more than obvious that the girl lacks confidence but underneath there's something else. Tomoka did not know exactly what it was, but something was bothering her. At that moment Tomoka decided to try to help Nozomi. 


 


“Do you want to be one of them? Because I believe I want to be a ninja” Tomoka gave Nozomi his brightest smile. Tomoka did not know what it was but something about the girl in front of him made him want to protect her. 


 


"Yes, but I don't think I'm good enough" Throughout the conversation, Nozomi avoids eye contact with Tomoka. It was obvious that he was embarrassed about something. 


 


“Nozomi. I'm sure you'll be a great ninja if you want. All you have to do is put in the effort in your training. If it doesn't work, try more. Find what works for you and what doesn't. I'm sure you can do it ”Once again Tomoka gave Nozomi a bright smile.


 


What happened next surprised Tomoka. Nozomi furrowed her brows, she looked angry. For the first time in the current conversation, he looked directly into Tomoka's eyes before speaking. 


 


"What do you know! I have trained a lot, I have given everything! In the end I remained useless!” Tears began to appear in Nozomi's eyes. Tomoka knew that the girl was injured inside. Something or someone had completely destroyed her confidence. Just like Aurora's parents did in her last life. 


 


“Nozomi please calm down. What are you talking about getting started? What are you trying that doesn't work? I might be able to help, after all two heads better than one” Tomoka tried her best to calm Nozomi down to no avail. After all, most of the time you tell someone to calm down, they will do the opposite. 


 


"Help me? How can you help me? i'm disabled! I can't do a Uchiha fireball jutsu no matter how hard I try! I have no element to it! At that moment Nozomi was crying. He hated himself, or rather through his short life people had made him hate himself. 


 


 


Due to Nozomi's lack of fire element, he could not use the fireball jutsu which was once again a staple of the Uchiha clan. This made him shunned by the other clan members. Even worse was the bullying he received from the children. 


 


Hearing Nozomi's words, Tomoka understood part of Nozomi's pain. He decided that words would not be enough in a situation like this rather than choosing to hug the crying girl. Nozomi did not refuse, instead hugging Tomoka with all her might while crying. 


 


It took a while but Nozomi managed to calm down. He was still sad but he also felt lighter, like a burden had been lifted off his shoulders. 


 


“Nozomi, you are not useless. Yes, you might not be able to use the flame release but who cares? You still have the release of water and the release of wind. Train them with everything you have and show everyone that you can be a great ninja. 


 


"But I'm an Uchiha, I should have made the clan proud!" Tomoka could only smile wryly hearing that. 


 


“Nozomi, you shouldn't care about such a stupid thing. You owe them nothing. You have to be yourself and live for yourself. You should aim to live a life that you can be proud of, a life that will make you happy. After all, this is your life and you will only get it” 


 


[The latter part is a little hypocritical, right?]


 


'Shut up. Can't you see I'm having fun there?'


 


“Can I really do that? Can I really be a powerful ninja?” Nozomi's sad eyes were now filled with fragile hope. One that Tomoka believes if broken will cripple Nozomi's mentality for the rest of her life. 


 


“You can, I promise. Don't listen to anyone who says otherwise. I'll help you become a great ninja. Trust me, I'll do it” For the third time today Tomoka gave Nozomi a bright smile.
