Should I continue being a villain in the ninja world after transmigrating?

Chapter 7 Sasuke's Hatred

Meanwhile, Zeref and Sasuke were in the same grove of trees where they first met, a place Sasuke often trained. Therefore, this was also a suitable place for them to study and train.

At this moment, before officially beginning to teach magic, Zeref looked at Sasuke and asked the same question as Mavis.

However, unlike Mavis's indirect inquiries into Sasuke's companions, Zeref directly asked Sasuke himself.

"Is this thirst for power born of hatred?" Zeref asked, looking at Sasuke.

Upon hearing this question, Sasuke stared intently at Zeref, and in Zeref's eyes, Sasuke saw only pure curiosity.

Compared to the sympathy and avoidance in the eyes of those in Konoha who knew the inside story, Zeref's pure curiosity unexpectedly made Sasuke feel more at ease.

Sasuke clenched his fist, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "That's right!"

Through their interactions over the past few days, Sasuke has also learned that Zeref is from another world.

In addition, unlike Mavis, who blended seamlessly into Konoha, Zeref often kept to himself and rarely went out. Therefore, he knew even less about the Uchiha clan, which even Mavis was unaware of.

Of course, Sasuke was deeply shocked when he first learned that Zeref and Mavis were from another world.

Before this, the worst he could think of was that Jelf and Mavis were spies from the enemy village.

However, with the answer that Zeref and Mavis came from another world, all of Sasuke's previous doubts could be explained.

Why did Zeref and Mavis know almost nothing about the ninja world? And why was Zeref able to cast magic that confused the entire village of Konoha?

The answer is that Zeref and Mavis come from another world! They use a different kind of magical power than ninjutsu!

However, even though Zeref is from another world, it doesn't affect Sasuke's desire to become stronger through Zeref.

Sasuke gently closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, they were now scarlet Sharingan with two tomoe.

“My eyes are a special bloodline limit called the Sharingan. You must know that, right?” Sasuke said, his Sharingan staring directly at Zeref.

Zeref nodded slightly and replied, "I do know that; it's said to be famous throughout the entire ninja world."

“The Sharingan is a bloodline limit unique to the Uchiha clan, but now there is no such thing as the Uchiha clan anymore. In the entire ninja world, only my brother Uchiha Itachi and I remain as Uchiha members,” Sasuke said painfully.

The annihilation of his clan? No wonder, a knowing look appeared in Zeref's eyes. However, during his time in Konoha, he seemed to have heard nothing about Sasuke's brother.

Just as a question flashed through Zeref's mind, he heard what Sasuke said next.

"The person who murdered the entire Uchiha clan was my brother, Uchiha Itachi! I must kill him with my own hands to avenge the entire Uchiha clan!"

At this point, Sasuke's expression became twisted. No matter how much time had passed, this matter remained his greatest pain, capable of stirring up his deepest hatred.

Jelf, who never expected the murderer to be who he was, was speechless.

What was initially thought to be a story of surviving brothers turned out to be a story of a powerful older brother and a weak, pitiful younger brother? Zeref, feeling a strange sense of familiarity, fell silent.

Even Zeref, who had lived for four hundred years, was at a loss for words after hearing what Sasuke said.

He had seen many people who wanted revenge, and he had also heard of brothers killing each other, such as himself and Natsu, who had completely broken off relations.

However, the fact that one's own brother killed his entire clan was one of the most shocking things that had happened in Zeref's four hundred years of life.

After a long silence, Jelf asked in a complicated tone, "Were your parents among those who were killed?"

Sasuke's expression grew even more hateful. He gritted his teeth and forced out, "That's right, that man... he said he wanted to confirm his own worth, and then he cruelly killed my father, my mother, and all my clansmen..."

Jelf remained silent for a long time, but still didn't ask the question, "Why did you get spared?" No matter what the answer was, the suffering of the survivors would not be lessened in the slightest.

Deeply shocked by Sasuke's intense hatred, Zeref now clearly sees a corner of the cruel truth of the ninja world. He thinks with mixed feelings: It seems that he underestimated this world of ninjas.

After finishing the heavy topic, Jelf walked slowly to a nearby huge tree, bent down and picked up a thin branch from the ground.

A faint magical glint appeared at the tip of the branch, and Zeref raised his hand, using the branch as a pen to begin carving a magical symbol on the tree trunk.

Seeing this, Sasuke's eyes lit up, realizing that a magic lesson had begun, and he began to listen attentively.

"If you want to cast a spell, you need to use magic power, just like you ninjas need to use chakra to cast ninjutsu."

Zeref began, saying that during his time in the ninja world, he had gained some basic understanding of ninjutsu through observing Sasuke and Kakashi's team.

"Similarly, casting magic is to materialize the magic within your body and then release it. That should be easy for you to understand."

"Although this world is different from Asland, there is still something similar to magical microparticles in the outside world, so using magic is not impossible."

……

As Zeref explained, Sasuke's expression shifted between confusion and sudden realization.

Even though Sasuke was very talented, and Zeref was excellent in terms of magical knowledge and teaching methods, it was still somewhat difficult for Sasuke, who was encountering a completely different power system for the first time, to fully understand magic.

However, for Sasuke, encountering difficulties is never scary; what is scary is not having a way to become stronger.

Zeref's appearance gave Sasuke another way to become stronger! So no matter how difficult it is, he must learn magic!

……

"The key to magic is the power of the mage's consciousness. So, let's begin meditating." Zeref put down the branch, leaned gently against the large tree where he had just inscribed magical symbols, and concluded.

Upon hearing Zeref's words, Sasuke sat down on the ground without hesitation and began meditating as Zeref had instructed.
