"It happened to be this way, that somehow I am not me anymore. Don't get it?"
A young man stood opposite to the full-length mirror in a wooden house. He was looking at his reflection in the mirror in detail, as if he was seeing his body for the first time.
"To be exact, I was Reko Eret yesterday but all of a sudden I am Reko Senju of the hidden in the leaf village."
He was Reko of the normal planet Earth, but now that he had woke up from his regular nap, he had become an individual with the same name but in Naruto world.
"Good thing, if there is any, is that I am an unknown Chunin. Somehow, Reko Senju whose body I happened to transmigrate into is a no name ninja."
Such a shame for the great Senju clan.
That's right, Reko happened to possess an extra among the many named shinobis out of all people, the guy was a loner and barely had friends, not to mention close friends.
"He has some lineage with the great Senju clan but that's it. He is a mid Chunin with very low potential.
He is not a great ninja or some important character according to the story. So, it makes sense that he's unknown even with Sanju clan bloodline.
How do I know that? Well, an eighteen years old Chunin is not a talented ninja. Being a fan of Naruto, I remember the youngest jounin was Itachi at thirteen."
Since the ninja Identity he had on himself showed his age to be eighteen, it meant that the man had been an average or even a below average ninja.
"Oh another thing, I did want to actually live in another world with superpowers and magic, though not this cruel."
Like every anime fan, he wanted to live inside one of those worlds but Naruto is a very dangerous one for below average people.
Third hokage had just died and Tsunade took the seat of hokage, meaning there was a lot of trouble to happen yet.
The distress among the people was increasing and so was the case with higher ups among the ninjas.
"The sudden demise of the third, that too by the hands of his favorite pupil is very sad. But he deserved it, I mean you know it's ninja world, you either kill or be killed."
That goody two shoes had died by his own student, nothing out of the story.
"There are certain number of missions I am supposed to do but the minimum quota of this year has been completed by the guy before his death, or something like that."
Surprisingly, Reko had given him a vacation for almost an year. He could decide to do whatever he wished in this time.
"Also his body looks in a healthy state, I don't know how he died."
He wanted to grow stronger to achieve his goal or at least be able save his life.
There was no clue about the guy's disappearance or death, so, he didn't bother searching for it.
"Time to explore the village, it would be soon in dust, I need to hurry up." Reko decided, he had to look at the scenery of the village before deciding on anything else.
"Uuhm, that's a really beautiful lady " Reko saw a beautiful lady in the market, she was looking at the stalls. She was wearing a kimono but her curves were visible beneath her baggy cloth.
[Talk with 'a really beautiful lady' for 2 minutes]
+100 chakra
Huh?
"Not really surprising that I manifest an unknown ability after coming to this world." Reko mumbled to himself.
He was too calm when he had come to another world, an ability which showed quests on a 3d screen was not really that surprising.
"Just talking increases my chakra by 100?" He was amazed at the quantity of chakra he could gain by having a simple chat.
"Ohh, a screen with my stats. The amount of Chakra an average Chunin has is around 2000." He got to know from the system screen that his total amount of chakra was close to 2100.
He decided to go forward and talk to the lady. She seemed to be shopping alone.
"Hey there, the kimono looks gorgeous on you." Reko smiled at the lady and made an eye contact before complimenting her outfit.
He wanted to appear like a cheerful guy who wanted to chat.
"Thank you. You are...?" The lady smiled when she heard a young man compliment her beauty. Though she tried to remember his name but could not recall it.
"I am Reko, a Chunin." Reko calmly introduced himself to make it easy for the lady to continue the conversation.
"Ohh great, I am Sayako, I am also a Chunin. I had retired already but due to the recent tragedy I will be back in service." The lady introduced herself cheerfully.
"Retired? Is that due to your personal life?" Reko asked.
There were ninjas who retired from the battlefield to live their personal life with their loved ones and the family. Sayako looked perfectly healthy to him, so he asked her if the reason for her retirement was her personal life.
"Yeah, I have a child but my husband who was a Jounin died in a mission few years ago." Sayako said to him melancholy on her beautiful face.
"Are you shopping alone now? I don't see your child." Reko quickly asked about the child, he didn't want to make Sayako sad by letting her remember her late husband.
"He is playing with his friends. He has just joined the academy and made some new friends." Reo nodded as he heard Sayako talk about her child.
"What about you Reko? Are you seeing someone? You are young and full of life." Sayako asked, she became interested in the normal looking ninja.
She was also going to get back to work, she thought it would be great to find a friend of same ninja rank.
+100 chakra gained
"No, not really, I am an orphan so I don't really have much time for these things." Reko answered with a sad smile, pouring his sadness in one smile.
"Why don't we chat over a meal? Let's go." He signaled Sayako to walk together and she complied.
