Chapter 10: A Glimpse into Sasuke's Past
Itachi sighed heavily, afraid that Sasuke's arms would be numb when he got up tomorrow if he lay on his side like this, so he put Sasuke's body flat in distress, and then helped him wipe his body soaked in cold sweat because of pain, and finally gently covered the thin quilt, stretched out his finger and poked his brother's forehead, since he returned to this world, this is the first time he has done this action, not rusty, just a little absent for a long time.
It stands to reason that Sasuke can't be so heavy even if he is asleep, after all, he has been traveling alone for many years outside, and no one will help him stay vigilant except himself, even if he is in his own home now, but he is always afraid that Itachi will find out his little secret, so he will always be vigilant, and this is how he has come these days.
However, this is what arouses Itachi's suspicions, so tonight, he added something to the porridge that does not harm the body, but can make people sleepy.
In fact, it's not to blame Sasuke for not being able to play Itachi, after all, he has complete trust in Itachi, but at the same time he has to always be on guard, which makes him sometimes a little confused, just like he didn't want to eat and be coquettish just now, some things are unconscious, plus he has been urged by the shrine maiden recently to be mentally poor, and it is Itachi's stupidity not to be found to be greasy.
What's more, Sasuke is a younger brother after all.
After carefully looking at Sasuke's quiet sleeping face for a while, Itachi opened Sasuke's eyelids and looked at the unusual eyes, Itachi's eyes slowly turned red.
Reading memories, which is not difficult for Itachi with a kaleidoscope, here he sees his words and deeds after he has attained Bliss, Sasuke's every word, and knows his pain and loneliness.
Itachi was heartbroken when he saw Madara pierce Sasuke's slightly thin body with a grass pheasant sword, although he knew that Sasuke had finally come back to life and gained extraordinary abilities, but Itachi was still afraid, and with the words that Sasuke said when he was dying, Itachi didn't know how to describe his feelings.
Immediately afterwards, it was the final battle with Naruto in the Valley of the End, from the battle of the clouds, to the fight between fists, and finally to exhaustion, the blood of the two of them was mixed with each other, and at that time, Itachi had the illusion that Naruto was more suitable to be Sasuke's brother than himself, and at the same time, he was also very glad that his brother had a companion like Naruto.
Then there was the travel around, and the long journey alone made Sasuke's slightly confused eyes more and more silent, and it seemed that he had really thought about it a lot.
Itachi was just a little curious, what was he thinking when Sasuke sat alone in the shade of a tree, standing between mountains and rivers, or standing on a peak, whether he also missed the only good times left between the two of them when he was a child.
Having said that, Itachi himself misses it very much, and that beautiful period is the only reason why he persevered in the past few years.
Soon, Itachi got the answer, because he slowly discovered that Sasuke seemed to be looking for something, until a young girl in the middle of the flower season appeared, and he finally understood that what Sasuke had been looking for all these years was the way to resurrect the dead.
It was an uneventful night, and Sasuke rested against a hundred-year-old tree, his obsidian eyes unwavering.
"What are you going to do after following me for so many days, without asking for trouble or helping? If you come for these eyes, I'm afraid you will disappoint Your Excellency, you are not my opponent."
After Sasuke finished speaking, a girl in a strange costume walked out from behind a tree not far away, covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Sasuke-kun, people still think that you will ignore me to the end."
Hearing this, Sasuke dodged in front of the girl, pinched her neck and pressed the person against the trunk, and said coldly: "I don't like to talk nonsense with inconsequential people"
"It's... Grumpy, and... Ahem, ruthless" The girl's face was a little red, but she didn't look at Sasuke for a long time without the slightest timidity, and then she spoke again, "You're not... Looking for a way to resurrect the dead? I... Can help you! ”
"You?" Sasuke looked at the girl with some suspicion, and finally let go of his hand, looking at the person who fell to the ground, he didn't have the slightest pity for the jade, but said coldly: "What you said had better be true!"
