Chapter 85: Simple Exam
"Xin, someone's watching," Ophis's voice echoed in Xin's mind. Without showing any reaction, Xin continued to play with his kunai, responding mentally, Let me know the moment you identify who it is.
Someone's spying?
The only person who would have the time and inclination to do something like this had to be the Third Hokage.
Why's the Hokage watching me? I'm not exactly a beautiful woman.
Isn't he more into watching the hot springs? He should go do that instead of peeping on me.
As time slowly passed, the exam eventually came to an end. Minato and Mikoto walked out of their rooms, looking relaxed.
It was clear that the test wasn't too difficult for them.
"Let's go grab some barbecue. We've got the practical exam this afternoon," Xin suggested.
The three of them headed straight for the barbecue restaurant, ordering a decent spread. As they ate, Xin gave them a heads-up, "After the exam, we might get assigned some difficult missions or even be sent to the frontlines."
Since the Hokage was keeping an eye on them, it was unlikely they could continue their laid- back routine in the village.
They'd either be given challenging missions or sent to fight in the war.
Xin wanted Minato and Mikoto to be mentally prepared for that.
"The frontlines?" Mikoto's usually calm face took on a serious expression. Minato also stopped smiling and looked at Xin.
"Are you sure?"
"Pretty sure," Xin replied with a shrug. Not everyone knew how the Third Hokage liked to operate, but Xin was all too familiar.
He was almost certain that their team's easygoing days were numbered.
But whether it was a difficult mission or the battlefield, Xin was confident he could keep the team safe.
Worst case, he'd just ask Ophis release some of her aura to their enemies.
Xin had a feeling his Sharingan was close to evolving.
Once it did, and he unlocked his first special ability, his power would take a significant leap.
He'd finally have the strength to truly protect himself.
"Relax. Have some faith in yourselves. Eat up; you'll need the energy for the practical exam this afternoon."
"Thanks for the food," Minato and Mikoto said in unison, pressing their hands together before diving into the meal.
