Summary
Han Jinu has gone through six secretaries this year. None survived his impossible standards — until Rumi, a clerical nobody accidentally assigned to his floor, tells him no and lives to tell the tale.
She’s blunt, broke, and not impressed by power. He’s rich, ruthless, and dangerously intrigued. Somewhere between deadlines, jealousy, and “strictly professional” stares across glass walls, devotion stops being part of the job description.

Summary
When the village called him cursed, he decided to study the curse.
Long before the Chūnin Exams, a quiet child in the shadows of Konoha began experimenting with the forbidden art of the Jiongu—sewing immortality into his own flesh to understand what it meant to exist. Under the Third Hokage’s careful watch, Naruto is not raised as a hero, but refined as an observer—one who learns to catalogue the world’s cruelty with perfect precision.
He does not laugh. He does not rage. He records.
And the man who trains him—Hiruzen Sarutobi, the “God of Shinobi”—discovers too late that he has not created a weapon, but a mirror.From shared cups of tea and coffee to assassination reports written like scientific studies, their bond becomes both experiment and faith—one seeking order, the other humanity. But when gods die, their creations must choose whether to protect the world or simply watch it continue.
This is not a story of redemption.
It is the anatomy of what replaced one.The god rests. The village lives. The monster walks.
