Chapter 30 Hinata: I had such a bold dream.
The next instant, the panel lit up:
[The Dream Master System has been successfully upgraded!]
Please select one of the following enhancement effects:
[1. Number of people achieving the dream goal +1]
[2. Dream Dungeon Expansion Pack for Let's & Go!!]
3. All items in the store will permanently have a 5% discount.
Shiyu's gaze quickly swept over the three options.
"Target number of players increased by 1, dungeon expansion pack, store discounts..."
He muttered to himself, his mind racing as he weighed the pros and cons.
Upon seeing the second option, Shigure couldn't help but roll his eyes and immediately retorted, "What the hell is 'Let's & Go!!'?! I'm in the Naruto world, who would choose this?!"
He even imagined the comical scene of Naruto charging through the streets with his Whirlwind, which made him speechless.
Obviously, it should be passed directly.
The third one is that the mall offers a 5% discount on goods.
The discount sounded tempting, but after weighing the options, Shiyu felt that increasing the number of people who could achieve their dream goals was far more practical.
So Shigure selected option 1 without hesitation.
[The enhancement effect "Number of Dream Fulfillment Targets +1" has been successfully selected! The Dream Fulfillment Master System level has been upgraded to Level 2!]
With the system notification, the data on the Shiyu panel was updated accordingly:
[Current Dream Fulfillment Level: 2 (100450/200000)]
[Target number of participants: 2]
Number of viewers: 3
[Dreamscape Dungeon Cap: 1]
[Current Dream Instance: The Undying Light]
"Level 2!"
Shi Yu felt a surge of joy as she watched the number after "Number of People Who Have Fulfilled Their Dreams" change to 2.
He studied the new feature more carefully: "The dream goal can be bound to two people at the same time, but only one person can enter the dream each night... In other words, now I can choose one of the two people to be the protagonist every day."
Shi Yu nodded in satisfaction. "Great, there are more choices now."
"Who is your second dream goal?"
Shi Yu's eyes darted around, and she quickly smiled.
"That must be Erzhuzi."
Shigure had considered other potential targets.
In fact, there are quite a few people in Konoha who have high emotional intelligence, such as Danzo and Kakashi.
However, he had tried it when he was at system level 1 and found that he couldn't pull it at all with his current privileges.
Even if I level up to level 2 now, I still can't get Danzo and Kakashi into the dream.
At most, they can only be spectators in a role similar to that of a "relative".
Therefore, all things considered, the most suitable new target is Sasuke.
"Besides, Sasuke isn't bad either!" Shigure smirked, rubbing his hands together eagerly. "Naruto's emotional points can raise my level by 2. If I throw Sasuke into the Uchiha's old base in the 'Undying Flash' dungeon... how many emotional points can I get?"
Sasuke was once a young master who had a complete family.
Having witnessed the tragic death of a loved one, the longing and pain for family that Naruto experienced is incomparable to that of someone like him who has never experienced family affection!
The intense emotion of regaining something lost is certainly more profound than that of never having had it at all.
If Sasuke could relive the happiness of family reunion in his dreams...
Shigure could almost foresee that the kid's emotional fluctuations would be no less than Naruto's, and might even be more intense.
……
Uchiha clan ruins.
The sky was not yet fully light; a faint glimmer of dawn was just beginning to appear on the eastern horizon.
In front of the dilapidated Uchiha mansion, young Sasuke had been training hard all night in the empty courtyard.
He held a kunai in one hand and thrust and slashed at the imaginary enemy again and again.
Sweat dripped down Sasuke's face, but he seemed oblivious, his eyes burning with hatred.
For him, pain and fatigue are nothing as long as he can become stronger.
Kill that man!
He will never waver in this belief!
The night was long, but Sasuke Uchiha stubbornly stayed awake, relying on his unwavering will to keep his eyes open.
He trained relentlessly to avoid being tempted by false dreams.
As the eastern sky began to lighten and the first rays of the rising sun pierced the darkness and fell upon his face, Sasuke finally stopped what he was doing and began to gasp for breath.
"Phew... It's dawn."
As Sasuke gazed at the rising sun, his tense nerves finally began to relax slightly.
"The night has passed... I haven't fallen into that eerie dream again!"
He slowly turned around and glanced at the empty and dilapidated Uchiha mansion behind him.
The light of dawn lengthened his shadow, casting it onto the dusty ground.
Sasuke put away his kunai and stretched his limbs briefly.
Although he hadn't slept all night, he didn't plan to rest. Instead, he casually splashed water on his face and started walking towards the village.
The Uchiha ruins are some distance from the center of the village, so now is the perfect time to head there.
……
Hyuga Residence, Konoha Village.
Soft sunlight streamed into the room through the window, casting dappled shadows on the tatami mats.
Hinata Hyuga lay on her small bed, her long eyelashes trembling slightly before she finally woke up.
She opened her blurry eyes, stared at the familiar roof beams for a moment, then suddenly seemed to remember something and sat up abruptly.
"Engaged?!"
Hinata gasped softly, her pretty face instantly burning red as the scenes from her dream last night flooded her mind like a tidal wave.
She covered her burning cheeks with her hands, feeling both ashamed and flustered, wishing she could shrink back under the covers and hide: "How could I dream of...getting engaged to Naruto-kun...How could I have such a dream!"
Hinata felt both embarrassed and ashamed, thinking that her dream was really... too daring.
I actually dreamt that I was giving Naruto a gift, and I even dreamt that my father wanted me to get engaged to Naruto?
As she recalled the details of her dream, she clutched the blanket tightly and rolled around on the bed, feeling so ashamed that she didn't know what to do.
After tossing and turning in frustration for a while, Hinata's little head gradually calmed down.
No... what happened last night didn't seem to be my dream?
Recalling the bizarre experience in her dream, she muttered in confusion, "Last night... last night it seemed like Naruto was dreaming, and I... I watched Naruto's dream?"
Hinata frowned slightly, unsure whether what happened last night was her dream or a dream in which she was in Naruto's dream.
Many of the sensations in the dream felt so real, especially the strange, dark space, the giant screen, and Sakura and Kakashi-sensei watching the "movie" together...
These are not things I would normally dream about.
"Oh right, Sakura and Kakashi-sensei!"
Hinata suddenly remembered that Sakura and Kakashi-sensei had indeed been with her in that strange movie theater last night.
They were also surprised by their sudden appearance, and Sakura even kindly explained to them that she was watching Naruto's dream...
Hinata recalled the details of her dream, and her delicate brows furrowed slightly.
If it wasn't just an ordinary dream, but some real event, then Sakura and Kakashi-sensei would definitely remember it.
Perhaps I could go and ask them about what happened last night?
After all, the two of them definitely understand what's going on better than I do.
Thinking of this, Hinata jumped out of bed.
Forget about being shy, she quickly changed her clothes, lowered her head, pushed open the door, and ran out.
