Chapter 48 Your Love Is Below Me
Chapter 48 Your Love Is Below Me
Upon hearing Uchiha Ike's question, Obito froze for a moment.
He almost forgot that he came here late at night not to chase after strangers, but to find Uchiha Ike.
As for why they came to find Uchiha Ike.
That's because, ever since Uchiha Ike promised to apologize to Rin, Rin hasn't been unhappy these past two days.
But Lin became very strange.
She would often sit alone, lost in thought, a smile occasionally playing on her lips, or she would purse her lips and chuckle secretly.
It looks exceptionally beautiful.
However, when Obito asked what good thing had happened, Rin Nohara's eyes instantly turned cold.
"It has nothing to do with Obito."
That was the first time he felt Nohara Rin's annoyance.
Then Nohara Rin became unhappy again.
At that moment, Obito was like a dog that had done something wrong and displeased its owner, trembling all over.
He kept apologizing to Nohara Rin, trying to get forgiveness as before.
Later, Rinno did forgive him, but there was always a hint of distance in her tone.
"I need to prepare for squad training, I don't have time to waste with you."
"I'm in a bad mood lately, please stop bothering me."
This filled Obito Uchiha with immense fear.
He sensed that Rin Nohara had undergone some unknown changes in a place she was unaware of.
This might cause him to lose the other person.
If... there is no Lin in my future, what will I do?
Why did everything turn out this way...?
With a confused mind, Obito Uchiha wandered aimlessly around the clan's territory.
When he came to his senses, he found himself standing in front of Uchiha Ike's house.
Why would you contact him?
Even Obito Uchiha himself didn't know.
Perhaps it's because the other person also likes Lin.
If there is anyone in this world who can understand my feelings of confusion and helplessness, then Uchiha Ike, who confessed his feelings to Lin, would definitely be one of them.
But now, when he actually faces the other person, Obito can't bring himself to speak.
Just a few days ago, he regarded the other party as a loser and secretly looked down on him, but now, he himself is more like a stray dog than the other party.
How ridiculous...
But Uchiha Ike seemed to sense his embarrassment, so she put away her confused expression and, with a hint of concern, asked, "What happened, Obito?"
This concern was like a timely rain after a long drought, making the dejected Obito feel a little better.
"So, Uchiha Ike isn't such a bad person after all."
"...I feel like Lin has been acting a bit strange lately." He opened his mouth, paused for half a minute, and then said it.
Uchiha Ike patiently asked, "What's strange?"
"She's been spacing out a lot lately, and she likes to purse her lips and smirk..." Obito described it simply.
Uchiha Ike blinked: "I'm in a pretty good mood, so why is it strange?"
"Her attitude towards me, and the way she looks at me, is very strange." Obito's face looked a little pale.
Uchiha Ike immediately understood why.
After all, Rin Nohara already knew what Obito had done from him, so it was already very classy of her to refrain from cursing.
But he still feigned ignorance and asked, "Is it strange? How so?"
"She spoke to me in a very distant tone, and her eyes were cold. It scared me. She wasn't like this before..." As if recalling the scene, Obito Uchiha's body began to tremble again.
[Pain detected from Obito Uchiha!]

Uchiha Ike slowly closed his eyes, clearly beginning to think.
Seeing Uchiha Ike's appearance, Obito dared not speak, not even daring to breathe, and just looked at him nervously.
A few seconds later, Uchiha Ike smiled, opened his eyes and looked over, "Uchiha Obito."
"What's wrong?" Obito asked, gripping his hand tightly.
For some reason, although he saw Uchiha Ike smiling, he sensed that the other person was not in a good mood.
Uchiha Ike calmly said, "Didn't you tell me you would make her happy?"
His voice was calm, but Obito could sense the emotions contained within it.
That was hysterical anger.
Obito then suddenly woke up.
Yes, he clearly promised Uchiha Ike that he would make sure Rin lived a happy and fulfilling life.
Now, however, he has completely forgotten his promise and has run up to the other party to ask what to do.
Anyone who hears this would probably be very angry.
[Guilt detected from Obito Uchiha!]
[Gain 10 points and increase damage by 2%!]
Uchiha Ike stood up and walked towards Obito.
He took a step forward, and Obito took a step back, and so they made their way to the corner of the wall.
Looking into the other person's icy eyes, Obito Uchiha couldn't help but shiver and averted his gaze with shame.
"I'm so sorry..."
"I don't need your apology. If I remember correctly, this is the second time, isn't it?"
"Every time, he would ask me to do this or that, and he would solemnly promise me that he would make Lin happy, but every time he would not let me see Lin happy."
"I believe you're simply enjoying the pleasure that comes with making promises, but you have absolutely no ability to fulfill them!"
"I......"
Obito opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word; he only felt a bitter taste in his mouth.
All the promises made could not be kept.
I really feel like a useless piece of trash...
He slowly lowered his head, his throat tightening, feeling that he had let down both Nohara Rin and Uchiha Ike.
Uchiha Ike continued talking to himself.
"Why, why did you make Rin angry... Obito Uchiha, tell me," Uchiha Ike's voice remained calm, but his eyes quickly turned bloodshot, "Do you really have the ability to protect Rin!?"
Under Obito Uchiha's shocked gaze, Ike Uchiha's eyes darted around rapidly, and a pair of tomoe appeared above his pupils.
"The Sharingan!?" Obito Uchiha was completely dumbfounded.
What's going on? Uchiha Ike, because he couldn't make Rin happy, awakened a single-tomoe Sharingan in a moment of excitement!?
[Shocking information detected from Obito Uchiha!]
[Gain 15 points and increase damage by 3%!]
Seeing the system notification pop up for what felt like the umpteenth time, Uchiha Ike felt a surge of joy.
However, he is not prepared to give up so easily.
Although Uchiha Ike was secretly pleased, his face remained gloomy, his single-tomoe Sharingan fixed firmly on Obito.
"You clearly said how much you like Lin, so why couldn't you even open your eyes when you upset her...?"
"Still won't admit it?" Uchiha Chi Zhen said in a deep voice, "Your so-called love is nothing compared to mine!"
