Konoha: Starting by giving Hinata the Tenseigan!

"Heh heh, Anko, don't you dare stop me. My little brother isn't back yet, so let's hurry up and drink to our heart's content."

Early the next morning, amid a string of mumbling, Natsuki opened his eyes.

Looking beside him, Kurenai's chin was pressing down on Natsuki's forehead as she treated him like a human-shaped pillow. 

Natsuki was speechless.

He was sure he'd dragged her back to her own room last night.

Apparently, after drinking too much, she'd run back here again out of habit.

Ever since her father heroically sacrificed himself during the Nine-Tails' Rampage, Kurenai had developed the bad habit of excessive drinking and the fear of sleeping alone.

"Work never ends around this household, haah!! I'm only five and I already have to cook."

After all, ever since Kurenai became a Genin, she often couldn't come home because of missions.

What's more, she was just promoted to Chunin yesterday. 

In the future, there would be even more days she wouldn't be around. Doing things himself was the only way for him to live comfortably.

Anyway, he was still better off than a certain Child of Destiny.

So as not to wake his sister, Natsuki tiptoed out of the bedroom.

"Good, my movements are getting more and more nimble, I made no sound at all.

"But why do I feel a bit unsteady?"

Just as Natsuki was complimenting himself, he suddenly realized it wasn't because he had mastered some technique like 'walking on snow without leaving a trace.'

It was because he was actually hovering steadily ten centimetres above the floor.

Nani?

What's going on? Did his soul leave his body? Did he suddenly ascend to immortality?

No, that free-floating feeling, being able to move up and down at will, was a change in his own gravity.

The next moment, he recalled the system messages that had been overlooked after he fell asleep last night:

..

[Ding! Evil King's Eye System's true ability activated. Hyūga Hinata's Byakugan has evolved into the Tenseigan.]

[Through the extraction of Evil King's Eye, you have obtained Tenseigan's puppet-control ability!]

[Through the extraction of Evil King's Eye, you have obtained Tenseigan's abilities related to gravity!]

[When Hyūga Hinata's proficiency in her Tenseigan reaches 50%, you will gain a fully awakened Tenseigan.]

[Please work to quickly improve Hinata's Tenseigan mastery level.]

..

Hiss! So that chuni Evil King's Eye System had benefits like this?

Not only can my chūnibyō behavior grant me power, but other people can benefit from it too?

More importantly, the power other people gain through this method can also be extracted by my Evil King's Eye.

So, what if I gather all of Konoha's new generation into our Dimensional End's Congregation?

Wow. It's not scary to be a chunni, what's scary is when the chūnni stuff becomes real. What's even scarier is that Konoha will end up with a whole group of chūnibyō kids.

As for the social death they'll face when they grow up and outgrow their Chunni phase…

Well, if we're going to die socially, let's just do it together…

…

In the kitchen, the fire was blazing.

Gurgle, gurgle—

A stew was bubbling away in the pot.

Natsuki, eager to test his newly acquired powers, immediately put his abilities into practice.

In the past, he needed a small stool to reach the countertop. Now, he no longer needed it!

His small body hovered in midair. With a light gesture, a carrot was pulled through the air into his hand.

He chopped swiftly with the kitchen knife.

Chop, chop, chop!

In the blink of an eye, the sliced carrots and meatballs all flew into the pot.

"Natsuki, what are you cooking? It smells amazing."

Yuhi Kurenai, dressed in a loose-fitting white pajama top, walked over, still half-asleep. She had been lured awake by the delicious smell.

Arriving in the kitchen, she caught sight of her little brother floating in midair and various ingredients drifting around him.

Instantly, her mind went blank. "What the hell? What's going on? Am I seeing things?"

She quickly rubbed her eyes and looked again.

Sure enough, the scene was still there.

Several chunks of carrot and lettuce leaves were hovering in the air.

The knife flew back to the cutting board on its own.

Natsuki turned around and floated straight toward her, the golden glow in his right eye flickering ominously.

"Hehehe… stupid sister, you noticed? Then there's no point in hiding it anymore," he said. "I am the Master of Dimensions, the Guardian of All Planes, the Great Demon—"

Thud!

Before he could finish, Yuhi Kurenai flicked him hard on the forehead.

In the blink of an eye, the floating ingredients all fell to the ground.

Kurenai then hugged Natsuki from midair and pressed him firmly against her chest, rubbing his head. "Why are you flying around so high? What if you fell?"

"Even if you're a great demon, you're still my little brother.

"This time's trick was well done. It's another puppet show, right? If my Chakra weren't perfectly normal, I would've thought I was caught in a genjutsu.

"But don't waste the ingredients. And, where are the strings you used to control them?

She adored her little brother, but he was far too much of a naughty kid.

He was always coming up with new inventions. 

Sometimes, he even took her stash of liquor and sold it off to buy all sorts of random parts, talking about building airplanes and tanks, launching an industrial revolution. 

When that failed, he started drawing magic circles of who-knows-what.

His puppet show using strings had actually been quite entertaining.

But still, he seemed way too precocious, like he'd entered his chūnibyō phase early.

He often talked to himself in the mirror about a great demon sealed in his left eye…

"Nonsense, this time it's real! Ugh, stupid sister, gaaah!! let me go, I can't breathe…"

"Hmph! Natsuki, if you keep acting, I really will punish you."

With that, Kurenai let go of Natsuki and shuffled off in her slippers to wash up.

Sigh. We're not on the same wavelength at all. It looks like recruiting Kurenai into the ranks of mages and letting her grasp the essence of being a chūnini isn't going to work anytime soon.

Natsuki shook his head. With a wave of his hand, the ingredients that had fallen on the floor began floating up once more…
