Konoha, Ninja School.
Yoruha looked at the leaves outside the window. In his heart, he sighed, '12 years, it has already been 12 years since coming to this world, never thought time passed so fast.'
Yoruha was a transmigrator, as soon as he came out, he encountered the Nine-Tails Rebellion. His parents died in the Nine-Tails Rebellion.
Six years later, he successfully entered the Ninja School to study.
He was no different from other students. After entering the Ninja School, ordinary grades, ordinary ranking, the only thing worth mentioning was that he looked pretty good.
With average grades, he was a small transparent in the class.
No one paid attention to him.
Unlike Uchiha Sasuke, who was always first in every exam, nor like Uzumaki Naruto, who was always last and attracted people's attention, Yoruha had no fortuitous encounters, and ordinarily spent 12 years of time.
He didn't show any special traits that would catch the attention of the Third Hokage or Danzo. There was no incident of Root inviting him for tea.
[AFK System, activation complete, binding host: Yoruha.]
Yoruha was stunned for a moment. "System?"
[AFK System, at your service.]
Yoruha frowned, thinking he was caught in a genjutsu. He bit the back of his hand, and the intense pain let Yoruha know he wasn't under a genjutsu.
"System, you're 12 years late." Yoruha said without any emotional fluctuation.
These 12 years, he had already seen through things. Who knew the system would appear now.
The AFK System didn't respond to Yoruha's words.
"Really a cold and aloof system."
What Yoruha didn't know was that the AFK System had no emotions and no intelligence. Seeing the AFK System not replying to him, Yoruha didn't say anything more.
He asked, "I wonder what kind of function you have?"
AFK System: [This system is the AFK System. You only need to AFK for a certain amount of time to receive rewards.]
Yoruha smiled slightly, "Quite simple. So how do I use it?"
AFK System: [You are already using it now. The AFK System is currently at your service.]
Yoruha was a bit surprised: "I can already use it now? I wonder what reward there will be."
After 12 years of experience, Yoruha was already very familiar with this world. Whether he had the AFK System or not, he didn't care.
If he didn't, he would live a drifting life; if he did, he'd live a bit more freely—just a slight difference.
He shifted his attention away from the consciousness space. Looking at Iruka on the podium who was speaking, Yoruha thought, 'Finally graduating, I wonder which class I'll be assigned to.'
The graduation exam was approaching. The graduation exam tested the Clone Technique, and although Yoruha's grades were ordinary for the past six years, passing the exam was not a problem. He had already mastered the Three Basic Techniques. Or rather, except for Naruto, who was affected by the Nine-Tails, all the students in the class had mastered the Three Basic Techniques by this time.
Iruka on the stage shouted, "Now, the classmates whose names I call, go next door."
"First, Uchiha Sasuke." Iruka called Sasuke out first. Since entering school, his grades had always been the best in class. His name was also ranked first.
Sasuke stood up expressionlessly, hands in pockets, and walked to the next room. Many female classmates in the class looked at Sasuke with infatuated expressions.
"Sasuke is so handsome."
"Sasuke, good luck!"
"Sasuke, I love you!"
These fangirls were obsessed with Sasuke like fans chasing idols.
Below the stage, Naruto looked at the cool Sasuke on stage, gritting his teeth, "Damn it, Sasuke that bastard. What's so great about him?"
Sitting not far from Naruto, Shikamaru lazily said, "Sasuke is the best in class, and always first."
"Shikamaru, I'll surpass him sooner or later. This great me is a man who will become Hokage!"
Shikamaru rolled his eyes at Naruto, then lay on the desk to sleep. In the class, only Shikamaru and Kiba played with Naruto. Others didn't want to get close to Naruto, including Yoruha.
Others were influenced by their family elders, while Yoruha simply didn't want to cause trouble.
In a few minutes, Sasuke came back. Very smoothly.
Iruka even wanted to let Sasuke pass without the test. Since the first year of entering Ninja School, Sasuke had mastered the Three Basic Techniques.
In Iruka's heart, Sasuke was undoubtedly the strongest of this generation.
The subsequent exams went just as Yoruha expected. Except for Naruto, everyone passed smoothly.
Then the Third Hokage appeared, giving a speech to the successfully graduated students. It filled the students, who had unrealistic fantasies about the ninja profession, with dreams about their upcoming ninja careers.
Naruto sat dejectedly on the swing under the tree, enviously watching the classmates who graduated smoothly.
Not long after, Naruto disappeared from under the tree.
Yoruha thought, 'He must've been tricked by Mizuki.'
Yoruha had no intention of getting involved in Naruto stealing the scroll.
On his way home from Ninja School, when passing by Ichiraku Ramen, he decided to eat there instead of cooking for himself. But as soon as he entered Ichiraku Ramen, he saw Iruka treating Naruto to ramen.
Having been in this world for 12 years, Yoruha had already forgotten most of the plot. He didn't know Iruka would be treating Naruto at this time.
Just as he was about to back out, the ramen shop owner, Teuchi, called out. "Yoruha, what are you having today?"
Yoruha often ate at Ichiraku Ramen, even more frequently than Naruto. Over the years, he had become familiar with Teuchi.
Teuchi's words drew Iruka and Naruto's attention.
Yoruha had no choice but to walk in. "Iruka-sensei, hello. Naruto, you're here eating ramen too?"
Yoruha's parents were ninjas, leaving enough money for him to live comfortably for years. Usually, Yoruha would avoid coming when Naruto was around.
These years, Yoruha had never run into Naruto here.
Seeing it was Yoruha, Iruka smiled and said, "Yoruha, you did well today."
Naruto, on the other hand, was unfamiliar with Yoruha. Yoruha's presence in the class was as low as Shino's. Naruto didn't even know him, not having any impression at all.
After sitting down, Yoruha smiled slightly, "It's all thanks to your teaching." Yoruha spoke politely.
Naruto frowned as he stared at Yoruha, thinking hard but failing to recall who he was.
Yoruha didn't mind.
Naruto couldn't remember and leaned over to Iruka, whispering, "Iruka-sensei, who is he? Is he my classmate?"
Iruka, who was about to speak to Yoruha, was left speechless by Naruto's question. Looking at Naruto with a twitching mouth, he said, "Naruto, this is your classmate Yoruha. You don't recognize him?"
Naruto awkwardly laughed, "Hahaha, Iruka-sensei, I really have no impression." Naruto said honestly.
