The next moment, a flood of information surged into Riku's mind:
[Method One: Spend 1,000 wish attempts to directly gain the perfect Sharingan awakening method most suited to you.]
[Method Two: Spend 10 wish attempts to temporarily boost your comprehension to its maximum for 3 minutes. Based on Uchiha meditation, combined with various meditation and visualization techniques from your past life, and the Uchiha clan's knowledge of the Sharingan... You can deduce and create the best awakening method tailored perfectly for you.]
[Method Three: Spend 90 wish attempts to raise the Uchiha bloodline's development to 10.1%, thereby directly awakening the One Tomoe Sharingan.]
After digesting this information, Uchiha Riku raised an eyebrow and thought, "Huh? So there are three methods?"
"But Method One has terrible cost-effectiveness—way too wasteful."
"Method Three is the same. I can awaken the eye through training. There's no need to burn that many wish attempts."
Wish attempts were still incredibly valuable.
With his current Level 1 Wish Talent, he only got one wish attempt per day. He couldn't afford to squander them.
So, Riku decided on the second method.
However, he wasn't in a rush yet. There were still other things he wanted to test.
He would only finalize his wish-spending plan after completing all his trials, to maximize the efficiency and impact of the accumulated wish attempts.
After all, once these were gone, he'd have to build them back up slowly.
Right away, Riku made another wish:
[I wish to know the best method for me to unlock the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.]
[Method One: After awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan, spend 10,000 wish attempts to directly unlock the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.]
[Method Two: Spend 10,111 wish attempts to directly unlock the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, regardless of prior stages.]
[Method Three: Spend 94,340,000 wish attempts to raise comprehension to Super Kage-level, then use 1,000 wish attempts to temporarily maximize comprehension for 3 minutes, entering a 100% epiphany state. This would allow you to create your own complete Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan training system—including eye-opening meditation, the advanced Perfect Three Tomoe training, and the final Eternal Mangekyō cultivation method.]
...
"Hisss... Ten thousand wish attempts? At Level 1 Wish Talent, that would take more than 20 years!"
"I don't have that kind of time!"
"Even if I reach Super Kage-level at age 30, that's way too slow for someone with cheats like me!"
"Looks like I need to find a way to level up my Wish Talent as fast as possible."
After absorbing the information, even with mental preparation, Riku couldn't help but gasp and mutter to himself.
But the leveling of the Wish Talent depended on luck and fate.
And increasing one's luck involved many things.
Strength, reputation, influence, status, contributions to the ninja world—all of these could enhance one's fate.
These would become Riku's focus moving forward.
[I wish to know the best Chakra Refinement Method for me.]
[Spend 5 wish attempts to maximize comprehension for 5 minutes to deduce it.]
"That's simple. Only five wish attempts?"
"Then... if I gather more memory, knowledge, and refinement methods related to chakra—would the cost be even lower?"
Uchiha Riku stroked his chin in thought.
It was worth testing.
Even saving a single wish attempt would be worthwhile.
[I wish to know the most suitable chakra training method for me—one that allows permanent storage, accumulation, and purification, so I can perfect my chakra training system.]
[Method One: Spend 1,000 wish attempts to maximize comprehension for 3 minutes, enter a 100% epiphany state, and create a Chakra Circulation Training Method. This includes circulating chakra around the body to accumulate it, expand the meridians, and develop a central core to store chakra.]
(Reading in-world anatomical knowledge and acquiring the Byakugan can greatly reduce the wish cost.)
[Method Two: Spend 1,000 wish attempts to directly acquire the Chakra Circulation Method.]
...
"A thousand again? Still too much. Looks like I'll need to prioritize increasing my training and collecting more chakra-related knowledge first."
After digesting the feedback, Riku shook his head helplessly and thought to himself.
"I'll start by reading every scroll and book available to me in my home and clan!"
With that in mind, he stepped out of his room and walked into the main hall.
"You're out? So? Were you able to refine chakra?"
Riku's father, Uchiha Nobuhiko, looked up as soon as he saw him and asked.
Beside him, Riku's mother, Uchiha Kokomi, also looked over with concern.
It was clear they had been waiting anxiously, knowing Riku was attempting chakra refinement today.
"Yeah! I did it!"
Riku smiled lightly and raised his hand, gathering chakra in his palm.
A faint chakra fluctuation emanated from his hand—enough for Nobuhiko and Kokomi to sense it, and their faces both lit up.
Nobuhiko immediately praised, "Not bad! You managed to draw chakra in just two hours—that's a pretty solid talent!"
"Though not as good as your big brother, if you keep working hard, becoming an elite jōnin won't be a problem!"
Their youngest son had always shown average-to-above-average potential growing up, and his physical aptitude wasn't anything special—so Nobuhiko wasn't surprised by the result.
"Uh... maybe so."
Riku was momentarily stunned but smiled slightly.
He really wanted to say—"My talent may not have matched big brother Fugaku before I awakened my past life memories... but now?"
With his past life memories, the Wish Talent, and his divine-level comprehension, he already surpassed Fugaku by miles.
And that's not even counting his cheat-style wish enhancements.
"By the way, Father, while I was practicing chakra refinement, I ran into a few questions... Would you help me go over them?"
With that, Riku casually shifted the topic.
He didn't directly ask for permission to read the clan's scrolls and techniques. Instead, he took a more roundabout approach.
That way, he wouldn't raise any suspicions.
At the same time, it gave him a perfect opportunity to show off his powerful comprehension in front of his parents—and begin establishing a "genius" reputation.
"Oh? Ask away! I've got time today anyway."
Nobuhiko paused, then smiled in satisfaction.
He wasn't afraid of his son being full of questions—as long as he was thinking and learning.
At that moment, Nobuhiko felt his youngest son was showing some real intelligence, knowing how to use family resources and connections.
"Well, here's the thing..."
Riku began posing one question after another—each of them clear, thoughtful, and insightful.
After each explanation from Nobuhiko, Riku would pause, share his understanding, and then immediately dive deeper with another question.
Each question became more advanced than the last.
During this process, his grasp of the Uchiha Chakra Refinement Technique was growing rapidly.
Kage-level comprehension really is broken...
And no—it wasn't that Kage-level shinobi had this kind of comprehension.
It was just a rating—indicating that Riku now had the ability to easily learn any Kage-level ninjutsu.
As the questioning continued, Nobuhiko's expression shifted from initial interest to growing seriousness.
