NOVEL NEXT Chapter 5: Chapter 4:
Hi,
Well, I got carried away and wrote one more chapter(I wasn't planning to write today), although shorter and with details, but I hope you like it anyway.
I hope you guys will tell me what you think about the idea of the story so far and what suggestions you have.
Oh and remember that Itachi is mentally 13 years old and he didn't massacre his whole clan, just a large part of it heh.

Chapter 4:
…..
The Spirit Beast, having forcibly boosted Itachi's spirit power from level 2 to level 10 in order to become his Spirit Ring, realized it had succeeded in its task and now all that was left was to continue with the rest of the process.
However, even if the creature had used some of its power to forcibly increase Itachi's, it also noticed that Itachi's body was unable to handle the entirety of its immense power. To prevent overwhelming him, the beast divided its energy/power into seven spheres of light, sealing them to be gradually released as Itachi grew strong enough to bear the burden…
Finally, the process reached its peak. The pain escalated, the energy compressing and locking into Itachi's body and Martial Soul, reshaping and amplifying both. Itachi's entire being felt as though it was on the verge of breaking under the pressure, but his determination never wavered.
And then, with a final surge of energy, it was over.
The icy aura dissipated, and the Daydream Ice Worm's voice echoed in Itachi's mind:
"Congratulations… You're now my master! You've survived, just as I hoped. I can't wait to see how strong we'll become together!"
Itachi dropped to one knee, breathing heavily. Exhausted but still conscious, he fought to stay awake through the excruciating ordeal. Though the pain had pushed him to the brink of passing out, his unyielding will kept him aware. Throughout the entire process, his incomplete Sharingan never stopped spinning.
His body was drenched in sweat, and his muscles screamed in protest, but he was alive. His incomplete Sharingan glowed with newfound intensity, and suddenly, one of his crimson eyes bore a single black tomoe encircling its dark pupil.
Itachi could also feel his spirit power now at level 11. Within him, he sensed the beast's power—a chilling, overwhelming strength that resonated deeply with his Martial Soul, his spirit power, and his mind.
Additionally, he had gained a second Martial Soul: an Ice Element Martial Soul. However, this second spirit essence had only an attribute and no definitive form.
….
The Spirit Beast, now reduced to energy and residual consciousness, moved into Itachi's mental ocean.
But what the beast found there came as a shock.
The space that should have been tranquil and orderly was in utter chaos. Itachi's mind—and the essence of his entire being—seemed to be resisting its presence. Violent waves erupted, pushing back against the beast's arrival. Despite the fierce resistance, the beast managed to press forward and establish itself without too much difficulty.
The Spirit Beast eventually made its home within Itachi's mental ocean, bringing along its memories. In doing so, it assimilated all of Itachi's memories and came to fully understand everything about Uchi Ha.
However, the beast's curiosity surpassed its caution. While exploring the depths of Uchi Ha's mind, it stumbled upon a dark, blood-red region. Intrigued and emboldened by greed, the beast ventured further, hoping to unlock these hidden memories.
As the Spirit Beast began the assimilation process for these concealed memories, it encountered an unimaginable terror.
A pair of menacing, blood-red eyes suddenly materialized and locked onto the beast with an unrelenting gaze.
The moment the beast saw those eyes, it realized it had made a grave mistake.
A wave of dread washed over it as it instinctively tried to flee. However, those eyes were far from ordinary. They held absolute control over this domain. Despite its vast power, the Spirit Beast found itself immobilized under the influence of this overwhelming presence.
It didn't matter how strong the beast was; those terrifying eyes dominated this space and rendered its strength useless.
In mere seconds, the Spirit Beast's eyes began to reflect the Sharingan, as though they were mirrors. Its consciousness started to unravel.
….
Not long after, the residual consciousness and energy that the Spirit Beast had maintained within Itachi's mental ocean condensed into a singular form. Together with the seven sealed spheres, they coalesced into something unique—a Spirit Bone formed entirely of pure energy. This Spirit Bone was a Skydream Crown of the skull type, with an incredible age of one million years.
But that wasn't all.
What little remained of the Spirit Beast's energy, mental power, and essence also helped Itachi finalize his second Martial Soul, which had previously lacked both form and innate spirit power.
However, most of the beast's remaining energy had been consumed in forming the Spirit Bone. As a result, Itachi's second Martial Soul took the form of an Ice Silk Worm, a simple beast-type Martial Soul with an ice attribute. It lacked any remnant of consciousness and had a mere innate power level of 1.
…..
When all was said and done, Itachi opened his crimson eyes. One now bore a single tomoe, and a golden crown floated faintly above his head. In his right hand rested the beast-type Martial Soul, the Ice Silk Worm. Surrounding him was a new Spirit Ring, glowing with a unique golden-white hue.
As he processed everything that had happened, he began analyzing the new abilities he had acquired:
