MTL - Uzumaki Naruto is a Traitor - Chapter 5

Somebody once told a joke.A man ran in place all his life. He worked a job he didn't love for people he couldn't stand. But at the end of the day, the number in his bank account went up.That man got a second chance at life. He woke up in another world, full of adventures and romances and monsters and gods. And floating above his head he saw the number “1”. So what did he say?“Gosh I better make the number go up.”Not today. Not for this old soul. Reborn as a beast of battle meant to live a short life and die screaming, Garek refuses. He puts the madness of skills and levels behind him and sets out to found a little farmstead. He grows crops. Maybe someday he'll get a pig, and have bacon.It's a shame the world won't let him be. It's a shame that the warmongers and level-grinders hate nothing more than a soul at peace.He put down his sword for a plowshare, but when trouble comes calling, he'll pick it up again.

Jiang Cheng, a translator proficient in five languages, finds herself inside a book.In the book, the original protagonist's parents are deceased, and she is tricked into the Lin Family, where she works hard for three years under the title of elder sister-in-law. Three years later, her fiancé returns with the female lead whom he has married.The original protagonist is manipulated by the Lin Family into becoming their goddess daughter and continues to work hard. When the male and female leads face difficulties in starting their business, she is...Upon reading this, Jiang Cheng feels that a hundred “pah” are insufficient to quell her indignation.Once inside the book, Jiang Cheng carefully plots and ingeniously sets up a fake diary to tear down the Lin Family's facade.Assuming the persona of Jiang the Rebuker, she steps in directly.“All the abacuses in the world have been perfected by your Lin Family!”“Talking money harms feelings; without talking money, how do I know you have feelings!”“I am young; you are too old. There's a high probability you won't live to see me succeed. Have a good journey.”Years later, Jiang Cheng, once seen by others as a weak and naive scapegoat, has transformed into an outstanding translator, offering her expertise to major factories to translate imported equipment, providing strategies, and becoming a prominent figure in the industry.With the most polite language, she delivers the most powerful statements and reaps the most foreign exchange.Meanwhile, the male and female leads, crushed by life, huddle in a cramped rented room, clutching a newspaper, watching Jiang Cheng, whose demeanor and appearance are exceptional, advance even further.At this moment, they are not even qualified to be envious.Jiang Cheng walks out of the airport and spots the tall Shen Que from afar. As her smile blossoms, she is suddenly embraced by two people.“Sister-in-law, I've missed you so much!”“Sister-in-law, you're finally back!”Shen Que, who is pushed aside from afar, wordlessly reaches out and pulls Shen Xing and Shen Yue away, saying, “She's my wife.”Shen Xing and Shen Yue say in unison, “Hello, brother-in-law!”

After someone took my life away from me, I felt something or someone pulling my entire being together with my memories away from me and placing them into somewhere where it was cold and hollow. And when I thought that my life came back to me...

I realized that my new life as one of the dead had already begun...

"Who am I?"

Which path will this soul choose? A path of Perseverance or a path of Ruination?
