This Uchiha Itachi is very lonely

"As a country...or as a hokage, a patriarch, you should not only have strength. You should also have vision, self-cultivation and etiquette far beyond other people."

Arturia straightened her back, looked back at him and explained, "As a high-ranking person, your words and deeds may cause your people and your clansmen to scramble to learn."

"They'll be honored to learn how you act, learn what you wear, learn what you think."

"If it's good behavior habits, it will naturally make your country... your village, your family better, but if your behavior habits are very vulgar and dirty, then your clansmen are likely to I will learn your qualities and become insidious, cunning, and ruthless."

By being strict with yourself and inspiring others to learn from yourself in behavior, so that everyone can improve together and become better?

Although Itachi didn't understand when he said it, he had to learn to be a Hokage or the patriarch.But Artoria's words are quite reasonable.

Improving combat power is indeed not the only thing.

"Because I didn't know how long the specific practice would take before I left in the morning. So I didn't mention to my mother that I would go home for dinner at noon."

Itachi continued to walk forward, explaining as he walked, "Probably my lunch is not prepared at home now, and I may need to eat outside before going home."

"If possible, I will stop by the herbal medicine store to find out if there are any medicinal herbs that replenish the body's qi and blood."

"It's twelve o'clock now. If everything goes well, I can get home before fourteen o'clock."

As he said that, he discussed and asked, "Cultural class starts at fourteen o'clock, and there may be... three to four hours until dinner time. Is this enough?"

"Of course, a very reasonable arrangement."

Arturia nodded in satisfaction, "My teacher once told me that adequate and effective planning of time can also lead to better progress."

Seeing that she agreed, Itachi didn't say any more, but focused on walking towards Konoha's food street.

He is really hungry now, and his stomach growls from time to time.

Every cell in the body is like a baby waiting to be fed, crying and begging for nutrition and energy from the owner of the body.

If I don't find a suitable place to eat quickly, I will probably faint from hunger, right?

With that in mind, he quickened his pace again.

Chapter No.17: [Once, I only watch it once! 】

Near noon, the fan-shaped village has a very obvious dividing line between the outer and inner areas.

There are many merchants, villagers, and ninjas coming and going, and it is the place with the most daily traffic in the village.

This is Konoha's food street, or entertainment street.

On this street, there are all kinds of places, but the most prominent ones are of course various food stalls and small shops.

"It smells so good..."

Following closely behind Itachi, Arturia moved her nose while walking.

From time to time, she would unconsciously shake the hair on the top of her head because of the tempting scent that penetrated her nose.

Itachi walked in front and replied casually, "Although the food here is rich in variety, the quality is actually mediocre."

As a former queen, would Arturia be interested in this kind of food?

"Is the quality... average?"

Artoria turned her gaze to the stall beside her.

The scorching flames ignited, and a black iron plate was set up.

On the iron plate, the milk-flavored butter slowly melted under the high temperature, and a fat steak was caught by the stall owner with a tong and placed on the iron plate.

sand--

The moment the hot oil came into contact with the steak, there was a rustling sound of bubbles.

The sizzling milky hot oil wraps this piece of fat, followed by the unimaginable smell of meat and frying in the air...

Gudong.

Artoria swallowed, is this food of average quality?

Compared with Great Britain, which is economically and food-poor due to constant wars, this is much better.

And just when Arturia stopped drooling, On the other side, Itachi had already found a barbecue restaurant that was relatively suitable in terms of environment and customer flow.

As soon as he entered the room and took a seat, a waiter with a flattering smile on his face immediately came to the table where he was sitting.

"This little gentleman from Uchiha, what would you like to eat?"

As he spoke, he also kindly handed over a menu made of cardboard.

Uchiha...

Itachi's eyes froze slightly, not even a ninja, but an ordinary waiter in a barbecue restaurant can rely on the family emblem on his clothes to recognize Uchiha's identity?

This was the first time he had eaten in a restaurant alone since he could remember.

But soon, he took out most of the money from his pocket, "Just this big satisfying barbecue set meal, please come to... a set meal for four people."

"For four people?"

The waiter was a little puzzled.

"Yes, four people, please."

Itachi repeated his decision.

Then, she didn't look at him again, but stopped at the barbecue grill in front of her.

This... how to use it?

Thinking of this, he looked at the guests at other tables next to him.

Beside, the waiter did not persuade much, lit the grill and left.

Anyway, this little boy from Uchiha has already paid for it.

"Is it the way of doing it yourself barbecue? It's a very creative business idea."

When Itachi returned his gaze from other people's barbecue grills to his own table, Artoria hurriedly followed and sat opposite him.

As for this kind of business idea of ​​cooking food and enjoying it by herself, she said that she has great potential.

"Hello, here is the barbecue set and sauce you ordered."

Soon, another waiter came over with a trolley and put a large plate of beef on the table.

Then, put the tongs, bowls, sauces and so on.

The waiters were polite throughout the process.

Arturia made a timely evaluation:

"In addition to the business idea, the quality of the service is also commendable."

"Perhaps my previous cultural evaluation of your village was too one-sided."

"It's not that there is no etiquette here, but the etiquette is more reflected in the type of work that pays for the service."

Itachi skillfully poured the cooking oil on the baking tray, and while waiting for the hot oil, he replied casually: "The decoration of this store is considered upper-middle-class in this street, and it should be aimed at relatively high-end ones." groups of people."

"And this point, from entering the door to being seated, the waiter will come to the door immediately, the speed of serving the food after ordering, and the number of customers are controlled within a stable range... It can also reflect its professionalism in all aspects."

"While pursuing the quality of food, they will also pursue the quality of service, and of course the price will be higher."

"But perhaps more importantly, it is also possible that they recognized me as a Uchiha."

After a pause, he added meat and seasonings to the grill, and continued: "Considering the cost-effectiveness of eating for the purpose of replenishing my energy, there are actually some better considerations for going further along this street. More food for the same price.”

"But while the price is high, their passenger flow is basically full, and they even need to queue up."

"Combining my current situation, which is about to faint due to exhaustion, I chose this store with relatively low cost performance, but can eat food faster."

Having said that, Itachi picked up a piece of roasted meat, hurriedly dipped it in the sauce and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Really……"

Arturia stared at Itachi's tachymeter and stuffed the piece of juicy tender meat into his mouth, then swallowed unconsciously, "Is it delicious?"

"not bad……"

Itachi nodded, "But it's not as good as my mother's craftsmanship. After all, it's my first attempt."

"the first time?"

Artoria was a little surprised, recalling Itachi's memory.

Then, she suddenly realized that this was indeed the first time Itachi went out to eat.

But why was he so professional in what he just said?

"Before I was a little too passive."

Itachi saw her doubts, and explained while grilling: "In the past, I always only paid attention to the information that appeared in front of my eyes. For example, I learned what my father taught me."

"As a result of this, I missed a lot of hidden details. It's like the tactical deployment of the team on the battlefield, the enemy's team configuration, and the summary after the actual firefight...I haven't really understood these things."

"On the one hand, my father felt that it was too early for me to get in touch with these things. He only needed me to recognize the cruelty of the battlefield and adapt to the identity of a ninja. On the other hand, I did not take the initiative to recognize it."

"This also caused me to not know the casualties in the battles our team experienced until the end of the mission, how many jnin and zhongnin in the opponent's team, and who are the more famous ninjas."

It sounds like... he's trying to get rid of the planned route and try to find his own direction?

Arturia clearly understood the meaning, "So you are going to take the initiative to understand something now? So you ask me to guide you?"

After a pause, she was a little confused again, "But what does this have to do with your barbecue?"

"Because I found that when I take the initiative to understand something, as long as I am serious enough, it becomes easy to learn and understand."

As he spoke, Itachi picked up the tong in his hand, and his movements were exactly the same as those of a middle-aged man who was barbecued for his wife and daughter at another table.

Chapter 18: 【The Consolation Monument】

"Holding a sword in both hands is the most basic respect for an opponent."

In a forest near the Uchiha tribe, by the stream, Artoria calmly looked at Itachi opposite, and slowly said: "Stand up so that your spine is like a sword, this The blade of the sword is directed toward the enemy and toward oneself."

"Any swing of the sword will have an impact on the enemy and yourself. Whether the impact is good or bad depends on your inner determination."

"Sword, don't be too sharp, it's easy to break if it's too sharp."

"But it can't be too blunt, especially the blade must be sharp enough."

"The most basic swordsmanship, the main point is to swing the sword steadily, stab the sword quickly, and draw the sword comfortably..."

……

Holding an iron sword that was almost the same height as himself, Itachi simply made a slashing motion.

Then, he successively showed the basic sword skills that Artoria knew in his mind one by one.

Stab, point, stir, split, tease, chop, pick...

The almost identical movements were displayed in her eyes, and Artoria no longer felt amazed in her heart.

Half a month has passed since the beginning of guidance.

And Itachi's talent is far beyond her imagination.

Although it is said that through the shortcut of spiritual communication, Artoria can directly transmit what she thinks and knows to Itachi's mind.But after a few days of teaching, she found that the facts were far beyond her expectations.

When she was at the yakiniku restaurant, Itachi said "As long as I am serious enough, learning and understanding will become very easy", she really felt it during this time.

One time, any thing only needs to be read once, and he can fully learn it.

Whether it is theoretical knowledge, or the use and mastery of power, Uchiha Itachi can complete it seemingly easily.

Although, Artoria, who has learned about Itachi's memory, also knows that Uchipote's sharing eyes have the two abilities of insight and copying, which can clearly see and reproduce most of the enemy's movements.

But... Uchiha Itachi hasn't awakened Sharingan yet, let alone reach Ergouyu's level.

That is to say, he used his talent to achieve the power that other people need to rely on blood to obtain.

Even Artoria didn't have this kind of talent before, at least in the process of her learning, she often needed to be familiar with it several times before she could do it.

And Uchiha Itachi is completely re-enacted one-to-one, and sometimes even better!

"Is this the basic swordsmanship? I probably understand."

Itachi Uchiha stopped slowly and looked at Arturia who was standing dignifiedly in the distance, "Then next...should I try to learn advanced swordsmanship?"
