Chapter 24 - Chapter 23: Kunoichi Breeding Machine?

Esdeath: "So, someone posts a task, and then we in the group can join and help complete it? Sounds fun."

Luo Hao: "Like a cross-dimensional RPG. I haven't seen the scenery of another world in a while—this should be entertaining."

Sakura Tohsaka: "It's a pity I can't go… my strength is still too weak."

Sakura Tohsaka: "And with the Fourth Holy Grail War about to begin, I have a bad feeling. My father might send me to the Matou family any day now…"

Esdeath: "Hmm? Sakura, your father is giving you away?"

Esdeath normally didn't bother with children.

But Sakura—obedient, polite, packed with rare magical potential and near-perfect compatibility for a Servant Vessel—was an exception.

The thought of someone handing a treasure like her away—

Esdeath's smile vanished.

How could anyone discard such a valuable asset?

How nice it would be to raise her personally…

Nurture her into a powerhouse…

Or mold her into a loyal weapon…

…or a pet.

Miyuki Uchiha: "Right, Esdeath-sama."

Thanks to the group's auto-shared memories, Miyuki had already explained Sakura's tragic future to every member unfamiliar with the Fate universe.

Why she was sent to the Matou family.

What they would do to her.

How disgusting her fate was.

Miyuki Uchiha: "Basically, her father—Tokiomi Tohsaka—did something horrible while pretending it was for her own good."

Miyuki Uchiha: "In the end, it's all his fault, really."

Miyuki Uchiha: @Sakura-chan, you can post a mission too, like I did."

Miyuki Uchiha: "I'll save you! And I'll bring your sister and mother back too… ehehe~"

Sakura Tohsaka: "..."

A wave of goosebumps rushed across her whole body.

Why is Miyuki-san so scary!?

The rest of the group, who seconds ago felt sympathy, collectively lost words.

Yamamoto Mei: "Enough!!"

Yamamoto Mei: "Can we just discuss the missions we can post?!"

Miyuki Uchiha: "Hmph! The Shinigami hag is angry~ I just awakened my Mangekyō Sharingan. Come to the Naruto world—I dare you. I'll Tsukuyomi you straight into next week!"

Luo Hao: "Mangekyō Sharingan? That rare ocular technique from your world?"

Esdeath: "Yes. I heard its abilities—Amaterasu, Tsukiyomi, Kamui, Susanoo… quite fitting for high-level battles."

Luo Hao: "Intriguing. Quite novel. I'm curious to see it myself."

Miyuki Uchiha: "Ahem! Everyone listen—seriously this time."

Miyuki Uchiha: "From what I can tell, I can post a mission involving Iwagakure right now."

Miyuki Uchiha: "But I can't see the objectives or rewards until it's posted. Super weird but whatever, I'll do it."

Esdeath: "Good. I'm bored of the Revolutionary Army. Fighting ninjas sounds much more fun!"

Miyuki Uchiha: "Roger~!"

[Ding! Group Member Miyuki Uchiha has posted a World Mission — "Revenge on Iwagakure."]

Everyone immediately tapped the notification.

[Mission Name: Revenge on Iwagakure]

[Mission Objective: Iwagakure targeted Uchiha Mikoto, the sister of group member Miyuki Uchiha. Miyuki seeks revenge. No specific restrictions—participants may act freely.]

[Duration: 7 Days (Forced return after time limit)]

[Reward: Group-rated performance → Lottery Draws (Naruto-world exclusive rewards)]

[Participants: 3 Randomly Selected Members]

Esdeath: "Perfect. A mission of war and vengeance—it suits me beautifully!"

Luo Hao: "Lottery rewards from the Naruto world? Quite decent."

Utaha Kasumigaoka: "Wait—wait—hold on. Randomly selected? It's not like the mission poster chooses the team?"

Miyuki Uchiha: "Don't worry, senpai! If you get picked, I'll protect you."

Miyuki Uchiha: "Of course… you'll owe me afterwards… fufufu~"

Utaha Kasumigaoka: "..."

Utaha Kasumigaoka: "You're terrifying. Honestly, even that creeper lurking in the background feels safer than you."

Nerona Jaeger: "..."

A strange pain hit him.

Was he supposed to feel proud she found him more trustworthy…

Or offended that the comparison was with Miyuki Uchiha?

…Eh. He was kind of a scumbag.

[Selecting 3 Random Participants…]

[Selected: Nerona Jaeger, Luo Hao, Utaha Kasumigaoka]

Luo Hao: "Excellent!"

Luo Hao: "See? I told you—I'm blessed by the heavens. My luck is unrivaled."

Miyuki Uchiha: "Heh… unrivaled? Didn't you fail six enhancements in a row last time?"

Luo Hao: "...…."

Luo Hao: "You do realize I'm about to enter your world? You'll need discipline—just like my disciple."

Miyuki Uchiha: "…Huh—"

Her face instantly paled in Konoha.

Even the memory of poor Lu Yinghua suffering psychological collapse from delivering a message was enough to make her tremble.

Miyuki Uchiha: "N-no, wait! Luo Hao-sama, I was wrong! I was VERY wrong!"

Luo Hao: "Hmph."

Utaha Kasumigaoka: "No one's going to ask how I feel? Just tossing the helpless novelist straight into a warzone?"

In the merged manga world—

A black-haired girl with sharp eyes, a delicate waist, and a white headband crossed her legs anxiously.

For Luo Hao, this was a casual vacation.

For Utaha?

This was the Naruto world.

A place where battles split mountains, where shinobi leveled forests with a hand sign.

Her five-second time-stop ability was laughable here.

Would they capture her for intel?

Would some psycho try to "interrogate" her?

Would she be turned into some kind of—

A kunoichi breeding machine!?

A beautiful novelist had absolutely no business being dragged into a battlefield!!

SKRRRT—EEEEEEEKKKK

SoftShot taps the microphone:

I got curious today and checked the rankings…

And yeah...my novel is sitting so low it's practically digging toward the Earth's core 💀

I don't even know how to feel about that.

I started this translation out of pure spite and anger issues, and somehow ended up polishing dialogue, fixing MTL insanity, and rewriting half the scenes so characters don't talk like malfunctioning racists.

So to the 1,000+ active readers who show up every day…

don't leave me down here in the shadow realm alone.

Toss some Power Stones my way so I at least feel like I'm not translating into the void.

Alright, rant over.
