Chapter 37 Daily life with an expiration date
"But ......"
Although after hearing about Natsuhiko's plan, Kushina's heart was also full of enthusiasm, and he sincerely hoped that the tavern would be built as soon as possible, so that she could fight against more duelists from all over the world.
However, it may be a preconceived relationship, and Kushina has always treated this game as a child's thing.
Thinking of a group of big men wearing dueling discs there, "It's my turn!" "Gacha!" οΌ
Jiu Sinai was inexplicably ashamed of them, so embarrassed that she could use her feet on the ground to directly cut out the tavern that Xia Yan wanted to open.
I feel a strong sense of disobedience.
She didn't know that Xia Yan had a special word to describe this situation in her previous life, that is, "the painting style is wrong"!
Seeing that Jiu Sinai couldn't say why, Xia Yan snapped his fingers and laughed.
"Speaking of which, Jiu Sinai, you'll be an adult in a year or two, will you feel that the Fierce Forbearance card is not fragrant by then?"
When Jiu Sinai heard this, he tilted his head and thought about it.
A few years later, I quickly came up with myself with the devilish figure of Tsunade's sister, and the sassy and heroic posture of playing cards wearing a dueling plate......
"How can it be repaired, it's still very fun!"
Jiu Sinai nodded helplessly, but still had some doubts.
"But...... This game is fun to play, but would anyone really want to spend real money on these little pieces of paper? β
Although these cards are very beautifully designed by Natsuhiko, they are still small pieces of paper!
Not to mention that according to Xia Yan's previous design ideas, these cards still have to be used many times, so it's even more difficult to buy, right?
It's a pity that Jiu Sinai is still too naΓ―ve, and she doesn't know that Xia Yan's lower limit is even lower than she imagined.
"What, buy cards?"
Xia Yan couldn't help but sneer, "How can there be such a good thing?" β
Shaking his head and smiling, he opened the drawer of the table, rummaged through it, and pulled out a concept map and handed it to Kushina.
Kushina looked at it, and a scene was drawn in the form of a sketch.
I saw two people sitting on either side of the table, and there were several small people standing in front of each table, looking like characters from the Intense Ninja card.
Judging from the whole picture, they are supposed to be playing a card game of Aggressive Ninja with the projection reduced in equal proportions.
"Because of the limited space in the tavern, I reduced the size of the projection, and of course, there are also game consoles with one-to-one images, but that's not what I should be focusing on right now." Xia Yan clicked on one of the concept maps with his hand.
Kushina looked where he was pointing, and saw what he had been concerned about just now.
She noticed that the two men in the battle were not wearing dueling plates or holding cards.
Instead, the cards floated in front of them as if they had been ninja.
Then Kushina heard Natsuhiko explain: "The cards in front of them are actually projections, which I integrated into the machine. β
"So actually, they're just buying access to virtual cards."
When Kushina heard this, her eyes suddenly widened, and her pupils were full of incredulity.
"Void...... Virtual cards? And only the right to use? β
Listen, do you speak human language?
Originally, Jiu Sinai thought that Xia Yan's plan to sell small pieces of paper was already outrageous, but he didn't expect Xia Yan's idea to be even more outrageous, and what virtual cards he planned to sell were actually sold!
It's really outrageous, and mom opens the door to outrageous - outrageous to home!
For a while, worries arose spontaneously from the bottom of Jiu Sinai's heart.
She felt that Natsuhiko must have been blinded by the illusion that the Ninja Card was all the rage in the Ninja School.
After all, the Ninja Cards in the Ninja School are provided to students for free as a teaching aid.
In addition, the little ninjas have never seen the world and there are not many entertainment activities, so they will naturally be deeply attracted by the Fierce Ninja cards.
If you take 10,000 steps back, even if the Fierce Forbearance card is loved by adults.
But would these well-informed adult ninjas, who lick blood from the knife edge, really be willing to spend money on this kind of virtual card that can only be seen, but not touched?
After listening to Xia Yan's crazy thoughts, Jiu Sinai couldn't help but feel that selling small pieces of paper was not an unacceptable thing.
Looking at Xia Yan's confident appearance, Jiu Sinai knew that he would definitely not be able to listen to the cold water poured at this time.
So she decided to take a roundabout route and ask for more information before making plans.
"By the way, Xia Yan, why did you suddenly think of doing this?" Kushina asked.
"Actually, I had a similar plan before I returned to Konoha, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to take out those cards and duels at once. It's just that in the past, because of the mission, I had to go around in the Fire Country, so this plan has been shelved. β
Natsuhiko explained to Kushina as she rolled up the drawings and put them away in a drawer.
"Am I not in the ninja school now? I just had a lot of free time, so I naturally planned to implement it. β
"And I'm already very forbearing, and I have a little savings, so it's time to run a business."
"Actually, it's not a surprising thing, most of the teachers in the ninja school have similar side hustles."
"After all, ninjas eat youth rice, and the risk is also very high, I don't know when I may be injured and become a ninja, I have to consider the transformation after retirement......"
"I'm a ninja from a civilian background, but I don't have a ninja clan to cover myself, so I naturally have to make plans early......
Jiu Sinai, who originally wanted to find some flaws in Xia Yan's reasoning, twitched more and more the corners of his mouth twitched more and more the more he listened.
She thought that Xia Yan would come up with some whimsical reasons like selling virtual cards, but she didn't expect the real reason to be so unpretentious.
It's so down-to-earth.
If you don't know, you'll think it's a middle-aged ninja holding a thermos soaked in goji berries talking!
Hey, Xia Yan, you're only sixteen! Do you need to think so long-term?
You're like this, it's hard for me to be fifteen!?
Knowing that Xia Yan had planned for his next few decades, Jiu Sinai, who was only thinking about how to play a few more games of forbearance every day, began to become anxious.
I feel that at my age and stage, I shouldn't be able to sleep.
"Of course, there is a more important reason."
Xia Yan saw that Jiu Xinnai looked suspicious of life, and knew that anxiety was almost sold, so he smiled secretly at the corner of his mouth, and changed his words again.
"You also know that Jiu Xinnai is very expensive to learn the sealing technique."
"So have you ever thought that if there is no accident, it is impossible for such a large class of ours to be maintained, and it is destined to be short-lived?"
"Even now, even now, although Biwako-sama has made several additional funds, the income and expenditure of this course are barely maintained."
"When it's time to formally learn how to draw runes later, I can't rely on the cards I made to fool around, and it will cost a lot of money."
"Moreover, the cost of learning sealing cannot be borne by the school alone, and many students from ordinary families simply do not have the financial resources to support after-school practice."
"So obviously, sooner or later, the sealing art class will return to its original appearance, that is, there are only three or two kittens in each grade."
Originally, when he heard Xia Yan suddenly talk about the sealing class, Jiu Sinai was still a little strange.
However, with Xia Yan's narration, she gradually couldn't care about the affairs of the Narauszi Radical Tavern.
The facts listed by Xia Yan hit Jiu Sinai's heart like a hammer, making her suddenly startled and drenched in cold sweat.
If the number of students in this course is greatly reduced, won't she no longer need to be a teaching assistant?
For a moment, all kinds of memories came to her mind like a marquee......
While correcting homework, I listened to the laughter of the little ninjas playing cards;
Xia Yan's various novel and interesting teaching methods in the sealing art class;
Every day after school, I have a few rounds of patience with Xia Yan, although I have been defeated repeatedly, but I still enjoy it;
In the evening, I would share my day's experience with Grandma Mito to make her happy, and finally fall asleep with the hope of tomorrow......
Although it was only a short month, Jiu Sinai had unconsciously become accustomed to this kind of life and fell in love with it.
And she thought that this life would go on forever.
However, Xia Yan's words ruthlessly revealed a fact.
That's what she thought would go on forever.
In fact, it is like a beautiful castle made of sand, which can collapse at any moment because of a small wave.
Kushina, who was aware of this fact, felt empty for a while......
