Uchiha Patriarch

[Pov: MC]

[Date: The night before his death.]

[Location: Unknown]

As I sat in front of my computer, watching an anime, I felt a pang of sadness as the scene of Uchiha Fugaku's death played out. He was a dignified Uchiha Patriarch, one of the founders of Konoha and owner of the Sharingan, who met a tragic end at the hands of his own son.

It was not the first time I had seen this scene, but it always left me with a heavy heart. The Uchiha Clan, with their rich history and powerful abilities, were brought to their knees and ultimately annihilated. Uchiha Fugaku, as their Patriarch, had failed to protect his own clan.

Perhaps he was a good father to Sasuke and Itachi, but he couldn't fulfill his duties as a leader of the clan. Now, with only Sasuke remaining in Konoha, the Uchiha Clan's legacy hung by a thread.

After reflecting on this for a while, I turned off my computer. I glanced outside and noticed that the sky was overcast, and a chill wind blew in from the open window. The weather seemed to reflect my melancholic mood.

I decided to take a shower to clear my thoughts before bed. As I lay down, I couldn't help but feel a sense of sorrow for the Uchiha Clan and their fate.

[POV: Narrator]

In the middle of the night, he suddenly woke up, but he found that he couldn't move his body. Panic started to set in as he realized he was completely immobilized, unable to even lift a finger.

'What is going on?': he managed to think, but his mind was sluggish.

His mind felt like it was sinking into an endless abyss, surrounded by darkness and chaos. He tried to open his eyes, but all he could see was a terrifying darkness that seemed to suffocate him. It felt like he was drowning in it.

He tried shouting for help, but his voice would not come out.

The experience was eerily similar to drowning, which he had experienced before, but this was different. His heart raced as he tried to break out of whatever it is that was going on, but instead, he felt a searing pain in his brain - as if someone was drilling into his head.

The pain was excruciating, like nothing he had ever felt before in his life. He had no idea what was happening to him, but he knew it wasn't good. He was filled with a sense of dread as if he was about to face a fate worse than death.

His clothes were soaked with sweat, and strange and bizarre images flashed through his mind, with no rhyme or reason. It felt like he was losing control of his thoughts and his body.

Despite the pain and confusion, he tried to concentrate his spirit and will to make sense of the images, but as quickly as they appeared, they vanished, leaving him with an overwhelming sense of terror, and helplessness.

[POV: MC]

As the darkness faded away, my eyes adjusted to the blinding light of the white space around me. I looked around, disoriented and confused, trying to understand where I was.

And then, I saw him. A figure emerged from the light, slowly taking shape and approaching him. The figure was tall, dressed in a black suit and a red tie, with a sly smile on his face. My heart skipped a beat as I instinctively realized who he was facing - the devil himself.

"Partly correct, as I am not the devil. I am [Bailed] the failed god. Theoretically, I am known and called the devil, but technically I am a god.": the failed god explained in his deep charming voice.

Bailed, in his smooth-as-silk tone, spoke up as he noticed Alex's speechlessness. "Ah, it happens, my dear. As one of the devils, also known as Bailed the failed God, my reputation often precedes me. But please, do not let it cloud your judgment. I'm here today not to harm you, but to offer you a deal. This is a proposition I have presented to many people who have experienced failure in their lives."

I looked at him skeptically, but curiosity got the better of me. "What kind of deal?" I asked.

"Two wishes," he said. "Anything your heart desires. In exchange, you will enter into my services as my [Spawn of hell]."

I considered his offer carefully. I had always dreamed of having power or transmigrating into an anime world, but I knew there was always a catch when dealing with the devil. What could he possibly want from me in return?

'What does a [Spawn of hell] even mean?': I wondered.

The devil sensed my hesitation, leaned in closer, and says: "Think about it, my dear. You could have anything you want. Imagine the possibilities. All you have to do is say the word. If you become a [Spawn], then I am rightfully empowered to take possession of the souls of those whom you slay, and make them rightfully mine.".

I weighed my options carefully. Was it worth the risk? I took a deep breath and looked Bailed straight in the eyes.

"Deal," I said. "I accept your offer."

The devil smiled wickedly and held out his hand. We shook on it, and at that moment, I knew that I had just made a deal with an evil God.

The ominous deity inquired, "Pray do tell, what is it that your heart desires? I have the power to make your dreams a reality, and in exchange, all I ask is for your unwavering devotion to me.".

"I desire to transmigrate into Uchiha Fugaku, specifically on the day of his Academy graduation. I wish to possess all his acquired skills, knowledge, and memories.": I managed to articulate.

The devil raised an eyebrow at my first wish. "Transmigration, you say? You want to become Uchiha Fugaku?": he repeated, with a slight smirk on his face. "Very well then, consider it done.": he said, snapping his fingers.

Suddenly, I felt a strange sensation overtaking me, and before I knew it, I was still standing in the white space but my height and perspective were different. Instead, I was looking at the world through the eyes of Fugaku Uchiha. I could feel the power of the Sharingan and Chakra coursing through my veins, and a sense of exhilaration overtook me.

I possessed a comprehensive knowledge of all the traits and abilities a skilled ninja and an accomplished Uchiha heir possess. Moreover, I had a distinct set of memories in my mind, which illustrated my life as Uchiha Fugaku, up until the day of my graduation.

"I sense an overwhelming surge of power coursing through my being.": I whispered to myself.

The devil looked at me with amusement. "Enjoying your new body, my dear?": he asked with a chuckle. "And what is your second wish?"
