[After the template similarity is announced, if your similarity level is below 50%, you will be punished with a penalty that is reversely proportional to your similarity to the 0% level. The penalty for 30% similarity is to suffer from the diseases that the character in the template has suffered throughout his entire life and to feel the pain that he has suffered throughout his entire life. And the time of the penalty is exactly 3 minutes after the description of the template similarity]
[Penalty debuffs you currently have:
- cold: remaining duration 2 days
- diarrhea: remaining time 5 minutes
- flu: remaining time 2 days
- tooth decay: remaining time 9 days
- bone resorption: 1 month
- chronic intestinal inflammation: 1 month]
Are these all the diseases I have now?
[Yes, Host. No punishment is permanent unless your template percentage is 0. Also, some diseases disappeared before you woke up]
But Orochimaru told me I had end-stage bone cancer.
He was wrong?
But how can he be wrong with end-stage bone cancer? If I remember correctly, people with end-stage bone cancer have constant pain in their bones and their bones can easily break like glass. Also, people with end-stage bone cancer look as weak as matchsticks. Someone like Orochimaru wouldn't miss it.
Wait a minute. If I really had end-stage bone cancer, Tsunade should've caught it very early? Something doesn't fit.
There must be something.
It's something I missed.
Can you detect diseases that are already in my body?
[No]
Something...
Brittle bones... Osteoporosis?
I'm still confused about something. I need a medical book.
And I know where I can get a medical book, in Orohimaru's library, of course.
I realized how powerless I was when I wanted to act on the plan I had in my head.
Hmm. I think I need to go to the bathroom.
[Penalty - diarrhea. Penalty time completed and debuff disappeared]
Hmm. I think I don't need to go to the bathroom.
In the meantime, there are good things about approaching death.
Just like the poet said;
I used to have a turquoise hat.
I used to pass by people.
How they praised my hat.
They said blue made me look young.
One day when I was wearing my turquoise hat.
The doctor said you have cancer.
As I lay in a bed more comfortable than the one at home.
My visitors kept praising my turquoise hat.
It seems that being deathly ill has not only given me better living conditions but also made people treat me more like a human being.
For the first time in a long time I felt something called air in my lungs. How easy it was to breathe without the cold stone walls that didn't want me to breathe the air that was mine.
The sun shines through a huge window, there is a warm sweetness in the air instead of a cold predatory feeling, I can hear children's voices coming from outside.
Judging by the proximity of the children's voices, I was brought to a place far from the cave and the laboratories, but close to the village center.
So this is what it's like to be treated like a human being. Hah, I missed it...
The great transition from a cold cave cellar with no windows to a room with white walls and blessed with a huge window.
Damn, I wonder if I could look out the window and see children running and smiling and having fun on the street.
My psychological health really needs it.
Hours passed without realizing it, listening to the sounds of children playing outside and trying to find peace as it slowly started to get dark.
There were two knocks on the door of the room from outside. I forced myself to sit up a little in bed, but to no effect. I have no choice but to give up and invite my guest inside, who continues to wait at the door for my permission as if I were a real person and not a prisoner.
*door creaks*
"Is that you, Kabuto?"
"Yes..."
Kabuto didn't speak as he continued to look at me, but I could see the curiosity in his eyes. He was probably wondering why I had suddenly become like this when I was perfectly healthy.
Poor boy, it must have frightened him to see the person who had so ruthlessly exploited his sympathy suddenly dying.
Haha that's funny...
I was actually going to use this opportunity to get more sympathy by pretending to have been born with a fatal disease, but Kabuto was the first to open his mouth.
"Why?"
Before I could ask him what why in response, he yelled at me in a voice that sounded like a roar.
"WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO!!!"
A real roar. The winds behind the roar did not blow the covers off the room, but all the thoughts that had just been circulating in my head were pushed into the void by the roar.
I looked at Kabuto and saw him holding out one trembling hand toward me, his eyes red enough to make the Uchiha jealous.
He looks really angry.
He seems even more angry than me , when I thought I had just been killed by the system.
When I wanted to hit him back, I realized that the brat had scared me to the point that my tongue was hanging out. Or was it murderous intent?
"What... I... did... you think..."
"Do you think this is completely normal? Right after you told me you don't know anything about poisons, I suddenly saw you fall to the ground covered in blood!"
What the hell is he talking about?
More importantly, why does he want to kill me?
Should I scream?
Will Orochimaru save me?
No, I don't think so.
"Talk to me! For real this time! Why did you want to commit suicide! If you wanted to commit suicide, why did you try to be my friend? Did you just want to hurt me or did it give you some kind of sick pleasure?"
Seriously, what is this lunatic talking about?
Okay, let's calm down. Huff...
"Calm the fuck down first, Kabuto. And what the fuck suicide are you talking about?"
