Konoha: The Soul King from the Uchiha Clan

Chapter 238 The Blessing of Having Multiple Women (4200 words)

Fortunately, Uchiha Gen quickly looked away, and the two women gradually calmed down.

After a while, all the dishes were ordered. Uchiha Gen took off his sunglasses and put them aside, then started grilling the meat. The three women also started grilling.

The sizzling sound filled the air, and the aroma of the meat grew even stronger. With the dipping sauce specially prepared by Uchiha Gen, the three women were enjoying their meal immensely.

In the private room, Uchiha Gen didn't talk about any sensitive topics; they just chatted about all sorts of things.

This made the two women more relaxed, and the atmosphere gradually returned to normal.

After finishing the barbecue, everyone went shopping to digest. Once they were mostly digested, they got some snacks for a late-night meal.

As the streets began to thin out, Uchiha Gen spoke up, saying, "It's getting late, we should go home. Let's take Anko home first, and we can play again another day when we have time."

"No need to see us off, we can go home by ourselves," Hongdou said with a smile.

"Alright, you go home by yourself. I'll take Hong and Xiyan home."

red beans:"……"

Something feels off.

Forget it, if I can't figure it out, then I won't think about it anymore.

After greeting her two sisters, Hongdou hummed a little tune and happily walked towards her home, occasionally patting her full belly with a satisfied expression.

After Anko left, Uchiha Gen said in a deep voice, "You two come with me."

Kurenai and Yugao exchanged a glance, their eyes communicating for a moment, before finally following in Uchiha Gen's footsteps.

The three of them arrived at the park. Uchiha Gen found a swing to sit on and then pointed to the two swings opposite him.

"Please sit down as well."

Upon hearing this, the two girls obediently sat down.

Uchiha Gen hadn't played with a swing in who knows how many years.

Sitting on it suddenly makes me want to play with it, just like seeing my nephew's remote control car and wanting to take it and operate it.

Ignoring the two women's surprised looks, Uchiha Gen, while wearing sunglasses and swinging on a swing, said, "Why does it feel like we've grown a little distant since we haven't seen each other for a while?"

"No," Hong said, her head bowed.

"No way," Xi Yan said, looking to the side.

"Hongdou said she asked you all to come see me yesterday, and you said you had something to discuss."

"I asked you all to come together today, but you all said you had things to do."

"What a coincidence! You guys seem even busier than me. Could you tell me what's going on?"

"Don't lie, I can find out."

Hong and Xiyan fell silent upon hearing this.

"Is it because of the difference in social status?"

The two women remained silent. Uchiha Gen frowned and said, "Speak up. If you don't answer, don't blame me for using my Sharingan's hypnotic abilities."

Hong and Xiyan were shocked to hear this.

How to use the Sharingan's hypnotic abilities on fellow villagers, classmates, and subordinates?

Is this an interrogation?

Is this even human language?

However, Uchiha Gen is sometimes utterly inhumane when it comes to being unethical. Seeing that the two women still hadn't spoken, he raised his hand as if to take off his sunglasses.

Actually, you can use the Sharingan's abilities without taking off your sunglasses; sunglasses can't protect you from the Sharingan.

If sunglasses can protect against the Sharingan, then the Sharingan is mostly useless.

"There are some," Xiyan said.

Red Bean nodded slightly in agreement.

"You should learn more from Red Bean in this regard."

"Although it might be because they have the same teacher, she would definitely be more outgoing than you guys, even if you were in different places."

"And unlike others, we've known each other for so many years?"

After speaking, Uchiha Gen carefully observed the expressions of the two women and found that although they tried to act naturally, they were still somewhat reserved.

Indeed, when there is such a large gap in social status, even relatives can sometimes be reserved, let alone classmates, friends, and subordinates.

It seems we have no choice but to resort to our ultimate weapon.

"How about this, you can all be my girlfriends, that way we'll be very close."

"what?"

Hongdou and Xiyan suddenly looked up, their faces full of surprise.

What kind of method is this?

How could you say that?

How come I never realized this guy was so shameless before?

Uchiha Gen would say that if you want to enjoy the blessings of having multiple wives, how can you do it without being shameless?

"You already have a girlfriend," Hongdou said softly, lowering her head.

"And there's more than one..." Xi Yan added, looking down.

"Raise your head, look me in the eye, and listen to my explanation."

Upon hearing this, the two women subconsciously looked up at Uchiha Gen.

Tianyu has been appointed!

In order to ensure that he could convince the two women completely, Uchiha Gen once again used the eye technique of the Mangekyou Sharingan.

I only have one girlfriend.

"Mikoto is just someone I live with, she's not my girlfriend, and we're not married."

"Given your experience, you can probably guess why this is the case."

"The Uchiha clan is both a ninja clan and a noble family in the Land of Fire. This is not common among ordinary ninja clans, but it is not uncommon among traditional noble families."

"If I don't agree, Elder Setsuna won't be at ease, and neither will Sister Mikoto."

"They will worry about their own and their children's future situation, which may eventually lead to infighting within the Uchiha clan."

"I don't want to eliminate their ideas, but I also want to reassure them. What else can I do but agree?"

"Of course, it's undeniable that having a girlfriend and still wanting you all to be my girlfriends is a bit of a flirtation."

"But given the opportunity, which man wouldn't want to enjoy the blessings of having two women?"

"Nobles can have multiple wives; there's no problem with the system."

"And I am sincere with you all, I genuinely like you all, and I will never show favoritism to any of you."

"Furthermore, I can't possibly have only one girlfriend, for two reasons."

"First, the family elders hope that I will continue the excellent bloodline in my body."

"My family has tried to introduce me to outstanding girls in the clan more than once, but I've turned them all down. I only want to find a girl I like."

"Once is acceptable, twice is acceptable, but a third time is not. If the clan introduces you again next time, I won't be able to refuse."

"Sigh, being born into a wealthy family isn't all good; power and responsibility go hand in hand."

"Secondly, if I only have one girlfriend, I will inevitably be targeted by the mastermind behind the Nine-Tailed Night."

"The mastermind behind this has already plotted against me twice. The first time was on the battlefield in the Land of Whirlpools, and the second time was not long ago."

"The more girlfriends you have, the lower the risk, and the less likely your enemies are to use them as a threat."

"External environment, internal environment, and selfishness are all intertwined, making it impossible to untangle or sort out."

"Can you understand me?"

Even without the fact that Tianyu was ordered by Uchiha Gen, his words were already very convincing.

The most convincing example is the polygamous system among the nobility!

The marriage system in this world is extremely similar to the setting of martial arts novels.

In martial arts novels, most people in the martial arts world are monogamous, but royalty, nobles, officials, gentry, and wealthy merchants practice polygamy.

In terms of population size, the marriage system between martial arts practitioners and ninjas was not the mainstream in society.

Given the status of ninjas as mere tools in this world, would they be unable to accept polygamy?

of course not.

It wasn't that ninjas didn't want to practice polygamy, but rather that the sheer size of the ninja population made polygamy simply impossible.

Where are there so many female ninjas?

One-on-one relationships are still far from enough; most male ninjas still marry ordinary women who cannot refine chakra.

Furthermore, influenced by the mission Tianyu had been given, it was no surprise that both Yuhi Kurenai and Uzuki Yugao nodded in understanding.

"So, do you like me?"

Uchiha Gen took off his sunglasses, his dark eyes fixed intently on the two women.

Tianyu's mission has entered a cooling-off period, so both women's answers are true and reliable.

Upon hearing this question, Hong and Xiyan exchanged a glance before looking away, their cheeks flushed, and they nodded shyly.

They realized they had both fallen for the same man during their daily interactions.

At first, we were a little awkward and distant, but gradually we grew closer because of our shared plight, until today we are able to face things together.

Uchiha Gen laughed upon hearing this.

Although he was fairly confident, there is still a big difference between being certain and not being certain.

In fact, given Uchiha Gen's qualities, he could easily win over any female ninja who developed romantic feelings for him.

Young, handsome, and with a good temperament; born into a wealthy family with a good background.

If given a choice, probably not many women would be unwilling to marry into a wealthy family.

Human nature is like water flowing downhill and people striving for higher positions; this is especially true for women whose genes carry an admiration for strength.

Furthermore, Uchiha Gen was already famous throughout the ninja world at a young age and held a high position. He was the epitome of a rich, handsome, and successful man, so it would be strange if he didn't have much charm.

In the entire Hidden Leaf Village, who can compare?

Let alone Hayate Gekko, even top-tier second-generation official Sarutobi Asuma is far behind.

Asuma, having a falling out with Hiruzen Sarutobi, went to the Daimyo's residence in the Land of Fire to become one of the Daimyo's Twelve Guardians.

To put it bluntly, they are bodyguards.

Uchiha Gen was already a minister-level high-ranking official in Konoha's military group, second only to the Konoha F4 in terms of position.

If it weren't for the somewhat distorted nature of the nations in this world, Uchiha Gen would at least be the commander of the garrison district of the Daimyo's residence in the Land of Fire.

The sixteen-year-old commander of the Daming Prefecture Garrison, even if he was only at the deputy military region level and not the full military region level, was still incredibly powerful—like setting off firecrackers between the hind legs of a cow!

"That's great, then you two will be my girlfriends from now on."

Uchiha Gen jumped off the swing, quickly walked to the two women, and took their hands.

Hmm... It feels slightly cool to the touch and smooth. Relatively speaking, the red hand is softer, while the evening glory hand is more slender.

If there were no other people around, the two girls might be more relaxed, but with other people present, even close friends, the girl would find it difficult to relax.

"Um……"

The two women lowered their heads and answered softly, their voices so low that Uchiha Gen wouldn't have heard them if he hadn't been so sharp-eared and sharp-eyed.

Seeing the two girls' expressions, Uchiha Gen knew that if he did something bad, the two girls would probably run away in embarrassment.

Therefore, he suppressed his restless desires, released the two women's hands, formed a hand seal, and with a bang, a cloud of white smoke emerged.

The two women looked at the scroll in front of them, then looked up at Uchiha Gen with a puzzled expression.

"This is a spirit communication scroll. After you sign the contract, you can communicate with Zhu Rong, Wu Sheng, and Qiang Liang."

"We can use this when we encounter powerful enemies or deadly crises in the future."

"This is a gift we gave each other after we officially became a couple."

"Come, let me teach you how to sign a contract. This spirit scroll is different from ordinary spirit scrolls."

"Um."

The two women were overjoyed and nodded with radiant smiles.

Under Uchiha Gen's guidance, the two women quickly and successfully signed a summoning contract.

"We all have them, but don't we have red beans?"

"Yes, what about the red beans?"

Uchiha Gen's heart stirred. Was this genuine sisterly affection, or was she testing him?

Judging from the two women's expressions, they didn't seem to be testing him...

Forget it, let's play it safe for now.

"Red Bean has already signed the séance scroll in Ryuchi Cave."

"Does that mean I can't sign anymore?"

"No, we can sign it again, it's just so late..."

"Then sign it for her too."

"The giant snake she summoned when we were on a mission was quite powerful, but it was definitely not as strong as Zhu Rong and the others," said Kurenai Yuhi.

"Hong is right."

"Besides, we're already Chunin, so we don't always go on missions together. Sometimes we lead separate Genin squads on missions."

"What if Aoko encounters danger while carrying out a mission alone?" Uzuki Yugao asked.

It's confirmed; it wasn't a test, but a genuine sisterly bond.

"Since you've put it that way, fine, we'll just have to go wake her up."

"Walk."

The three of them then set off together for Hongdou's house. When they arrived, Hongdou had already taken a shower and had just fallen asleep.

With a few exceptions, ninjas usually sleep very well, falling asleep quickly and sleeping soundly.

Those ninjas who had trouble falling asleep and couldn't adjust their state quickly were basically eliminated on the battlefield.

After waking up Anko, signing the summoning scroll, and sending Kurenai Yuhi and Yugao Uzuki home one by one, Genji Uchiha returned to the Uchiha clan's territory.

It was almost 11 o'clock when I got home. I thought Mikoto would be asleep, but she wasn't.

Mikoto Uchiha came over carrying a basin and bucket of hot water, a gentle smile on her face, and said, "You must be tired. Wash your face and soak your feet."

Uchiha Gen was secretly pleased, thinking to himself that his older sister was very caring and attentive to his needs.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mikoto-nee." Uchiha Gen said with a smile.

"It's not hard work."

After saying that, he helped grab a washcloth, and after washing, he helped Uchiha Gen take off his shoes and put his feet into a bucket of hot water. Then he left the washcloth behind with the towel to dry his feet.

After a while, Uchiha Mikoto reappeared, having changed out of her pajamas and into a new outfit.

A black, thin, fitted top and a black knee-length skirt accentuated her exquisite curves. Most of her long black hair was draped down her back, with two strands hanging down on either side of her forehead.

This outfit wasn't particularly sexy or alluring; instead, it made him look dignified and virtuous. However, Uchiha Gen stood up to pay his respects very quickly upon seeing it.

There's no other reason than that this outfit is exactly the same as when we first met on the training field.

"I've already taken a shower."

Uchiha Mikoto wore a gentle smile, without flirting or blowing kisses, her tone as casual as an old married couple, before gracefully turning around and walking towards the bedroom.

Her legs were crossed, and the round, firm curves under her black knee-length skirt swayed gently, the amplitude neither greater nor smaller, just as before.

The only difference from before was that her fair and shapely legs were covered with black stockings, and she was wearing a pair of black high heels.

If you were young and tender before, now you are mature, like a plump and juicy peach, with a charm that surpasses the past!

Uchiha Gen was stunned for a moment. Who the hell could withstand this?

My older sister is so caring, and she's incredibly quick to put things into practice!

Despite two consecutive nights of intense fighting, the young man recovered quickly.

With his powerful physique, Uchiha Gen felt he could fight until dawn!

With a splash, Uchiha Gen, regaining his senses, lifted his feet out of the bucket, quickly wiped them with a rag, and then strode towards the bedroom.

Soaking your feet?

Soaking hammer...
