I plan to clean the Apartment's kitchen tomorrow, I only cleaned it a little yesterday, barely enough to be able to cook.
After sending Sasuke home, I spent the night training my skills that's not been mastered yet which is Stealth and Silent step. I sneaked all around the village, hiding from the Patrols in my human form as it'll be more challenging..the results are also more.
I also used 'Observe' on everyone I saw.
After a night of training, I manage to raise stealth to 70%, Silent Step to 78%, and 'Observe' to 68%.
I went home when the sun is about to rise and woke the kids up, I cooked an omelette for breakfast and Orange Juice for drinks.
I forced them to take a bath and we ate breakfast at 6:05 am.
At 6:45 am, The kids went out to their respective target places.
I created 3 clones to clean the Kitchen while I dump the old items into the trash can.
The things I'm using for cooking and the utensils were bought by the kids. It's the least they can do to help me financially.
I used 2 points to buy more things that the kitchen lack such as a stove. I also brought a rice cooker as I always forget to check the rice when I'm using a stove. There is an Oven and various modern equipment.
The 2 points included a table and chairs we can use if we somehow decided to eat here.
It also included common shelves for snacks.
A white paint too.
I also brought a Storage box that looks like a refrigerator for 0.5 coins, the time inside is stopped and will only continue every time it's open.
Then used 0.2 to buy a common refrigerator for cooling the fruits and drinks, it uses chakra to work and needs to be filled with it every morning.
I used another 2 points to buy various foods from Earth. Ordinary foods are cheap in the shop.
I bought different kinds of Snacks, Drinks such as Soda and Milk with different Flavours (chocolate, strawberry), Different flavours of noodles, Canned Goods, Meats such as Hotdog, Sausage, Bacon, and chicken, and vegetables. There's also a container with 5 kg of uncooked rice and powdered juice of different flavours.
I put the Snacks, Noodles, Powdered juice, and Canned goods on the shelves. The Drinks including a pitcher of water and fruits are in the refrigerator and the meat and vegetables are in the Storage box. The rice is located on the lowest shelf.
With the amount of food I have right now, I can even open a store.
After doing everything I can think of, I looked at the overall image of the kitchen.
Seeing this, you won't expect that it was once a dirty kitchen. Everything is new and the walls were painted white, it looks like a modern Dining room/kitchen.
I spent 2 hours cleaning everything even with the clones.
I'm in the mood to clean everything in the apartment so I created a bunch of clones with cleaning tools of their own.
They spread all around the apartment and cleaned everything..the staircase, the walls on both the inside and outside, and the remaining 4 rooms that weren't cleaned yet. The walls are repainted except for the ones inside the rooms.
If anyone were to see this, they will see a bunch of 5 years old kids who look identical to each other cleaning. A strange scene no matter how you look at it.
The cleaning lasted for 5 hours and the final result was? everything looks good as new with a touch of modern style since the walls and ceiling are white, the floor is dirty white and the roof's tiles were cleaned. Good thing the apartment is cemented.
Everything is good and clean but since the building is old, it's unavoidable to have cracks and damages that can't be fixed easily and the building's architecture doesn't look good in my opinion.
It looks stuffy in the rooms as it only has 2 floors, the rooms are located on the second floor and a big public kitchen on the first floor with a big space remaining unused.
Although the land is wide..forcefully fitting 10 rooms side by side is by no means looks good so when I have time, I plan to let a bunch of clones or maybe look for something in the shop to build a new apartment while I bring the kids into training outside that can last for days.
I took a bath after cleaning and then went outside to continue my stealth training. It's more challenging to sneak around during daylight.
After 4 hours, I manage to master Stealth and Silent Step while 'observing' 86 per cent in mastery.
It was 6 pm already and the sun was about to set so I went home and took a bath again.
At 6:45 pm, I started cooking a soup with chicken and vegetables. I already cooked rice before the dish.
At 7:25 pm, I took out the cooled water in a pitcher from the refrigerator as the kids arrived from their training. They first took their time to admire the newly cleaned apartment before deciding to eat in the Kitchen/Dining room.
After dinner, the kids tried eating some snacks placed on the shelves and they love it.
I had to place a rule of 1 snack and 1 soda a day or the consumption will be massive, the foods..albeit cheap, still cost more than the Shinobi world's foods and junk foods are not good for kids.
Like the previous night, the kids took care of washing the dishes then I sent Sasuke home.
I spent the night mastering 'observe'.
'System, show me 'others' in my skill list'
Others:
Stealth (80% harder to notice during the night and 50% during daylight)(+5 AGI while using stealth)
Silent Step (100% noise reduction while walking and 70% while running)(+5 AGI while utilizing Silent Step)
Observe (Name, Age, Bloodline, Rank, Element Affinity, Affiliation, Character)
I don't have to rush on strengthening myself..first, earning money is a must to do on my list.
Starting today, I won't spend points to strengthen myself. Just for items and foods.
You might say not to buy snacks and foods from the shop since it's more expensive than the one in this world but since I adopted the kids, I have to take responsibility and give them the best.
As for giving them Items like the one in my room? forget it, I'm poor.
I'll start buying skills and weapons after earning money so that I don't have to worry about food.
On the next day, the kids spent the day as scheduled while I collected the remaining Konoha Badge, even the Hokage's office was not spared.
I created an excuse of being bored and wanting to see his job.
I went to my room after getting everything I need.
I finished looking after the badges and was ready to enter the first dungeon.

'Activate the 1st badge'
I got the feeling of being pulled back as my surroundings swirled and when the feeling of dizziness disappear, I find myself in a dilapidated village.
Looking carefully, it resembles Konoha but smaller and the architecture is older. Probably the village during Hashirama Senju's rule. The badge on my hand disappeared.
I'm at the gate and it seems the moment I enter, the skeletons will start attacking me.
I first checked the position of the skeleton to determine which one will be able to attack first.
I entered and attracted the aggro of every skeleton within my sight. I only used taijutsu to fight, it might be listed as mastered on my skill list..but I haven't tested it on a real battle.
As expected, I did some mistakes at first and as time passes..it's noticeable that my moves became more refined and I can determine what are the appropriate move to do with the best result.
The mob skeletons varied from unarmed to swordsmen and archers. There is even a skeleton with farming tools.
When the last skeleton fell, I collected the loots which are their weapons.
I continued my way inside the village as the skeletons keep popping up on houses and alleyways.
I first walked around the village and killed every skeleton I find as it might affect the final reward.
Only the Skeleton Boss was left, located at the supposed place of the swing.
I'm determined to finish every dungeon without using any bloodline ability and jutsu.
I found a much larger skeleton with black bones, holding a sword and a shield.
Dungeon Boss: Argar
Rank: Mid Genin
Weapons: Sword and Shield
Ability: Stomp (1 min cooldown) - Once the boss stomped on the ground, the nearby enemies within 10 meters standing on the ground will get stunned for 3 seconds at most, the farther you are..the lower the effect.
I attacked immediately as the dungeon level is something I can finish easily.
The dungeon Boss is at most mid genin while the mobs are mixed from low genin to mid genin, there might be some difference with the boss but it won't exceed the combat power of a genin.
(I'm not good at describing a battle)
I battled the boss with my taijutsu, the Butterfly Style and decided to finish it as soon as possible.
I evade the boss's stomp by jumping every time it activates.
After the final hit, the time slows down and 'loots' burst out from its body.
I collected it and found the large sword and large shield with a silver necklace, engraved with a skull.
Item: Underworld Necklace
Type: Accessory
Grade: Rare-s
Durability: Indestructible
Effect: Double the size of the wearer, doubling the strength and defence for 10 mins (12 hours cooldown)
Buff: 50% weight reduction
I looked around again as there might be a hidden boss or mechanics in here.
Finding nothing, I decided to leave
'System, leave he'
I suddenly stopped as I noticed something weird on a tree. The tree belongs to a different kind than the others, it is not noticeable at first glance.
I went close to it and a prompt appeared.
[Would you like to open the hidden chamber?]
Damm it, looks like it's true that you might find the one you are looking for if you are not actively searching for it.
'Open'
The ground beside the tree suddenly hollowed out and a staircase appeared.
I walk through the stair for 5 mins before arriving in a 10x10 meters dimly lit room, in the middle sat a human-size skeleton with a great sword on its lap.
I haven't made the final step of the stair so the skeleton isn't attacking me yet.
Dungeon Hidden Boss: Jirga
Rank: High Genin
Weapons: Greatsword
Ability: * Wind blade (30 secs cooldown) - generate wind blade by swinging the sword.
* Stomp.
So although the dungeon level is mid genin, the hidden boss is stronger?
This skeleton probably has higher defence, punches and kicks won't do much damage..kunai or Dagger won't have that much effect.
I can only steal his greatsword and use it against the hidden boss.
I took the last step and the hidden boss suddenly stood up, it looked at me for a while then talked...wait, it talked?! how?! It doesn't have any vocal cords, then telepathy?..you know what? I should stop questioning the system's products.
"A living? haven't had one since 10 years ago" Probably a dungeon background
"You can understand me?" I stupidly asked.
"I'm not like those mindless puppets outside..they just move on instinct, to kill the living."
"Then you would kill me?" It seemed to think a bit before answering.
