Chapter One: New Game +


Naruto watches as Sasuke continued on his way to see the rest of the world, to find a truth all his own, but that didn't dim the happy smile plastered on his face. He had done it, he'd gotten his best friend back, even if it wound up costing him his arm, and just about everything was right in the world again. With one last look at the forest around him, remembering everything he had experienced thus far, Naruto reached out with his hand as if to grab something that no one else could see. A holographic screen seemed to appear before Naruto, with two different command options on it.

"Hm, this game wasn't so bad after all, I'll have to thank Suzuki for recommending it to me," Naruto said to himself as he pressed one of those commands and the entire world around him vanished as if it was never there to begin with.

(Real World)

Bright azure eyes opened up to the real world, more specifically his hospital room, and let out a tired sigh. The VR headset was gently placed on the tray next to his bed and a much thinner looking Naruto leaned back against his rather uncomfortable pillow. The life of Naruto Uzumaki wasn't that of a hero saving the shinobi world, but of a eighteen year old teenager that had lung cancer. The chemotherapy was supposedly helping, at least that's what the doctors kept telling him, but it turned him from an amazing athlete into a shell of his former self.

Naruto's once amazing blonde hair, a trait he actually got from his mother, was now completely gone, his once amazingly fit body was reduced to little more than skin and bone, and now he only ever got looks of pity from anyone that saw him. Maybe that's why he bought into this whole virtual reality gaming that had gone out some years ago, to escape having to face the fact that he was dying. Of course it was because of all this that Naruto found a friend in Suzuki Satoru, another young man that found almost no joy in the real world and spent as much time as possible in a virtual reality. Although, while Naruto tended to play single player games, one where he was always the main character, Suzuki played one single DMMO-RPG by the name of YGGDRASIL. Speaking of which, if Naruto remembered correctly, Suzuki said he had made Naruto an account if he ever wanted to play and could join his guild, even if he didn't meet the second requirement of being a contributor to society.

Looking over at the digital clock on the wall and seeing that he still had an hour left until his dinner was to arrive, he reached over and picked up his VR headset one more time for the day. He didn't know how fun the game would be, it looked a little crazy from the trailers alone, but he had promised to at least try it out.

"Heh, yeah, that's my nindo," Naruto chuckled as the vizor covered his eyes and his wireless connection was established.

"Welcome to YGGDRASIL, A DMMO-RPG WHERE STRENGTH ISN'T EVERYTHING!" a deep and grandiose voice greeted Naruto's ears, a grin forming on his face as he reached out with his hand to select what kind of species he wanted to play as.

"Well, let the games begin!"

(One year later)

Naruto smiled as he entered YGGDRASIL for what seemed to be the last time, since the vastly popular game was having all its servers shut down after only twelve years of being active. Still, this last year of nearly non-stop playing, not to mention help from his friends, saw Naruto grow more in this game than he ever hand in a single player one. Despite not being the same as "Way of the Shinobi" Naruto modeled much of this new character after himself, even if the species he selected was classified as "Demon" and had to gain the ability to shapeshift at around level thirty-five. Still, it was worth spending what remained of his life in this world, not to mention how he helped build the Great Tomb of Nazarick to finally become the strongest guild in the game. Naruto even became known as the guild's enforcer and tactician whenever a member got out of hand or they went to war with another guild. It had been a good run, but now Naruto's life in the virtual world and the real world was finally coming to an end.

"Naruto, are you sure you should be here, I won't be mad if you want to spend time with your family while you can," Momonga, what Suzuki liked to be called when in game, said to the only other person that decided to log back in one final time before the game was shut down.

"I'll be fine, I've already said goodbye to everyone quite some time ago, and I want to be here in the end. This place, this entire world, I wish it didn't have to go," Naruto said from his seat in the guilds meeting room, a place where all the members would come to discuss the future of their guild, while adjusting the katana and wakizashi attached to his left hip.

"Thank you, Naruto, for being here at the end," Momonga might not have said it aloud, but just knowing that one of his personal friends stuck around for so long really did make this moment a lot less depressing.

"Any time, but why don't we go for one last walk to that throne room I spent so much time putting together? After all, it wouldn't do for the Undead King and the Demon God to leave this world sitting in some dusty old meeting room," Naruto laughed while jumping up from his chair, still marveling at how much better this virtual body of his could move while his physical one was so weak.

"Hm, you have a good point and I can't help but agree with your thinking, sure let's go," Momonga stood up as well, although a lot more gracefully than Naruto had, and moved to follow his fellow guild member, only to stop when he noticed Naruto moved towards the Staff of Ainz ooal Gown.

"Hey Momonga, we should take this thing for a spin while we can, since we never actually got to use it in a real fight," Naruto said as he reached up and grabbed the staff their entire guild built to represent their unity.

"Yea, sure, why not?"

As they both walked out of the meeting room, with Mamonga carrying the staff, they were greeted by the sight of Sebas Tian and the Pleiades, the last line of defense for Nazarick if anyone actually managed to get past the front door. Both Sebas and the Pleiades were created by Touch Me, who was a cop in real life and thought it to be a good idea to have a nigh unstoppable raid boss for a final test.

"You know, I think Touch Me was into some pretty strange hentai to create this lot. I'm almost afraid to look at his search history," Naruto laughed after observing the group, being slightly creeped out even if they all looked to be beautiful women.

"Yea, it's a shame we never got to test them out though," Momonga turned to look back at the group, "Follow me."

Just walking down the hallways brought about a sense of nostalgia, especially when they had hand designed every part of this place! The hallways were line with paintings, or more precisely screenshots, of each member of the guild with their best gear on, and it listed one quote or another underneath.

'Man, leaving this place is gonna suck,' thought Naruto as they came to the entrance of the throne room, a set of massive double doors with etchings of demonic creatures seemingly trying to crawl their way into the world.

Naruto was of the strong opinion that massive guild halls deserved equally as massive doors, to show the pure epicness in which they have attained through virtual blood, and as such redesigned much of Nazarick to match such a grand scale. If the massive double doors were any indication, the throne room itself looked like something some sort of deity should reside in! Large stone pillars line the throne room, some baring lit torches while others had flags hanging from them. Much of the guild found it amusing when Naruto made giant stone statues commemorating each major victory they had achieved, especially the first time Touch Me ever lost a PvP fight and against Naruto no less! There, located at the very end of the throne room, you could find the Black Throne of Nazarick. The Black throne looked to be made of pure obsidian with intricate carvings aligning its surface and red leather to provide the appearance of comfort.

This great throne, lined with the bones of dragons and other creatures, was Naruto's gift of Momonga for letting him join the guild. A throne befitting the guild master of Ainz Ooal Gone and possible the most dedicated member among them.

"Heh, I should have become an architect!" Naruto laughed while admiring his work, knowing full well the difference between VR physics and real world physics.

"If nothing else, you do have a flair for the dramatic, although I do think the statues were a bit much," Momonga pointed out.

"Bah, you just don't understand the epicness that is my imagination," Naruto shot back, watching Mamonga take a seat on his throne before taking a glance at Albedo, the guilds strongest NPC and the one Naruto personally admired the most.

"Hm, I wonder if Tabula Smaragdina changed anything in Albedo's settings before she left the guild. Hey Naruto, maybe he made Albedo deeply in love with you," the Undead King teased, knowing for a fact that Tabula had somewhat of a hero worship going on with Naruto and kept saying the Demon needed a proper love life.

"I wouldn't mind, Tabula did make her really attractive," Naruto shamelessly admitted, not even bothering to hide his more perverted thoughts towards the NPC, before spawning his own throne next to Momonga's.

"Let's take a look then," Momonga spent the next few seconds scrolling down the, surprisingly long, mage that explained everything Tabula ment for Albedo to be like.

Momonga suddenly bursting of laughter was all Naruto needed to know in regards as to what Tabula finally added in at the end. Still, it was a nice thought to have a girl fall in love with him, even if said girl was just an NPC that he could never really talk to.

"He even put in that she was completely obsessed with you!" Momonga kept laughing, pounding his skeleton hand against the armrest of his throne as he did so, unaware of the tick mark forming on Naruto's head.

"Oi, keep this up and I'll leak your porn history to your parents!" Naruto finally shot back in one last ditch effort to shut his friend up, it worked to say the least.

"Oh calm down, besides it's almost midnight," Naruto calmed down at Momonga's words, realizing that this really was the end.

"Yea, you're right...hey Suzuki?"

"What's up?"

"Thanks, for introducing me to this world, it's been a blast."

"Anytime Naruto, I'm...gonna miss you man," Momonga sadly admitted, this would be the last time he would ever get to see his friend.

Both gamers just sat there on their individual thrones, watching as the clock slowly counted down to the server shutdown.

'It's been fun, but it looks like my adventure is over,' Naruto thought, knowing that the doctors would take him off life support the moment the server shut down, as was his final request.

11:59

00:01

00:02

00:03

By the third second of clearly not being dead, Naruto's blood red eyes shot back open to show he was still very much connected to the game and clearly not in the afterlife. Naruto waited a few more seconds, perhaps the doctors didn't time it quite right and they were working on pulling the plug at this very moment, but a few moments later and still nothing happened. The demon was even more surprised when Momonga suddenly shot up from his throne, clearly just as surprised as Naruto was, but neither of them were expecting what came next.

"Are you alright Lord Momonga, Lord Naruto?" a sweet and beautiful voice graced Naruto's ears, drawing both Naruto's and Momonga's attention to the NPC that clearly shouldn't be able to talk.

"My Lords?" there now seemed to be some panic in Albedo's voice, "My Lords, is everything alright? You seem troubled my Lords!"

Albedo moved towards the two gamers with a surprising amount of grace, "If there's a problem, please let me help!"

Naruto, despite finding this just as strange as Momonga no doubt did, somehow felt his inner panic lessen by some unknown force. His mind, which had been damaged by his chemotherapy, now felt like it was operating faster than ever before and was already coming up with solution after solution for the predicament he now found himself in. So, with more authority than Naruto ever felt before, the demon issued his first command.

"Sebas!" Naruto barked, possibly sounding more forceful than he had intended to.

"Yes, Lord Naruto?" the old looking butler asked, steel like resolve in his eyes.

"Go check outside Nazarick, I've sense something odd just a moment ago," half of that was bullshit, not to mention he'd always been bad at lying, but it was somehow much easier now.

"By your command, my Lord," Sebas replied, moving to do as one of his Lords commands.

"Pleiades, go to the ninth floor," Momonga finally spoke, his voice sounding much deeper than it had before, "If anyone tries to trespass, deal with them."

Naruto and Momonga glanced at one another, recognizing that the AI was now responding to commands not native to the game. Both gamers also felt like their connection to their outside bodies was gone and they were now completely one with their chosen avatars! They know how much magicka, stamina, and health their respective characters had, including their own abilities and how to activate them!

'This is completely insane, I can even feel myself breathe normally again! Now the only question is, what the hell just happened?' Naruto though, unaware that Momonga was having a similar thought, if only a slight bit more calculating.

"My Lords, do you have any commands for me?" they way Albedo looked at them, especially Naruto, made her look like some type of yandere that finally managed to corner her crush in some dark school room.

The demon felt a sudden spike of possessiveness come over him, it was rather shocking to say the least! "Albedo, come here."

"Yes, my Lord!" Albedo was before Naruto's throne in a heartbeat, almost invading the demon's personal space while she was at it, and it was then that he noticed he could actually smell her!

"Albedo, I need to examine something, may I touch you?" Naruto inquired, his clawed hand reaching out but stopping just before it made contact with the former NPC.

"Yes," she almost seemed excited at the fact Naruto wanted to touch her, going so far as to gasp in ecstasy when his fingers gently pressed themselves on her wrist to check for a pulse.

'Hm, she has a pulse, she smells, she can speak, and obey orders not native to the game. Did this world become real or am I really just dead and my consciousness was sent into the game since I was still connected to it?' so many thought swam through Naruto's brain that he failed to notice the blush on Albedo's face growing larger and larger.

There was only one rule left to break for Naruto or Momonga to believe that this might not be a game anymore, a rule that would get them automatically banned from the game in an instant. Without even thinking twice, Naruto released Albedo's wrist before gently gripping her left breast. The moan that escaped her mouth would put most porn stars to shame, yet it did prove what both gamers thought. They weren't playing a game anymore, they were somehow placed in a very real version of YGGDRASIL!

"Naruto, how long are you going to keep fondling her?" Momonga's question broke Naruto from her train of thought and brought the demon crashing back down to reality, now fully aware of what he had been doing.

"A-Ah, I apologize. Please forgive me, Albedo!" a moment of Naruto's actual personality broke through for just a split second, only to be suppressed once more by whatever spell was now over him.

"Please don't stop Lord Naruto, not when I was so close!" now that really caught Naruto off guard!

Seeing his friend frozen in shock, which the Undead King was sure he would be in as well if that had happened to him, Momonga spoke up, "Albedo, now's not the time to being doing such things!"

"(Gasp) I'm so sorry, my Lords!" the poor girl nearly jumped away from them both, feeling that her actions had angered them in some way!

"It's fine, but Momonga is right, we do have other things to focus on at the moment," Naruto spoke before his friend could, trying to mediate any damage that had been done from letting his mind wander in such a situation.

"Indeed, we want you to summon the guardians from everywhere but the fourth and eighth floors. Have them meet at the sixth floor arena in one hour," from the way he spoke now, when compared to before, it was clear to Naruto that he wasn't the only one affected by suddenly becoming something far from human.

"Yes, Lord Momonga," without even a moment's hesitation, Albedo turned and walked away to complete the task given to her by one of the masters.

"Naruto, how do you feel?" Momonga asked, turning to look at his friend, only to find the demon grinning like a mad man.

"I feel alive, for the first time in years I feel like I'm whole again!" Naruto suddenly jumped up from his throne in excitement, only to find himself all the way across the room by the time his feet actually touched the floor again.

"How is this possible though, how could we wind up in a video game?" Momonga asked, more so himself than his friend who was walking back to his throne.

"Don't know, but where not going to find out sitting here. For now, let's act like what we were in the guild, the bosses," Naruto suggested, thinking they should play along with whatever was going on and see where that got them.

"Hm, agreed, let's continue on to the sixth floor then, there's a few things I want to test before we meet up with the others."

Lucily for the both of them, their teleporting rings still allowed them unlimited access to all of Nazarick. This allowed Naruto and Momonga to skip several floors of walking and just go right to the sixth floor without any interruptions. Naruto actually smirked as he looked down at his teleporting ring, which had BS carved into the jem, and chuckled to himself.

"What's so funny?" Momonga asked, his new voice still very different from his old one.

"Nothing, it's just good to know that my bullshit ring still works," Naruto laughed loudly while his friend just rose a skeletal hand to his skull face and slowly shook his head in exasperation.

"Sigh, you never change."

Both Overlords continued into the amphitheater, looking around for the twin Dark Elves that were tasked with guarding it from any intruders. If Naruto remembered correctly, which he apparently could now that he had this new body, then the boy was dressed as a girl and the girl was dressed as a boy. Fucking Bukubukuchagama and her weird hentai fetishes. That chick sent him some crazy downloads.

Naruto's newly enhanced hearing picked up the sound of light footsteps from the balcony above them, just moments before the girl Dark Elf leaped over the edge and hit the floor with a surprising amount of grace. Now that he got a closer look at the NPC, Naruto could just imagine what the tomboy was going to look like once she grew up.

"Nailed it!" she yelled in victory, holding up two peace signs and showing off a massive smile.

"Aura," Naruto and Momonga greeted at the same time, watching the little girl run at them full speed before skidding to a halt.

"Welcome, Lord Momonga, Lord Naruto! Welcome to the floor which me and my brother protect!" Aura said proudly, placing her hand over her undeveloped chest and bowing her head ever so slightly.

Naruto just gave a sharp toothed grin and squatted down so he was in front of her, placing a slightly clawed hand on her head, "We're gonna intrude here for a while, I hope you don't mind."

"L-Lord Momonga and Lord Naruto are always welcome here, you two are the lords of the Great Tomb of Nazarick after all!" Aura stuttered out, never once recalling any of their lords showing such affection with any of them, it felt nice!

"Aren't you missing someone?" Momonga asked, noting that the other twin was missing.

Aura noticed this as well and quickly seemed to grow irritated, turning to shout in the general direction of her brother, "Mare! You're being rude to our lords! Get your butt down here!"

"I-I can't sis!" that voice was way too feminine to be male, Naruto shivered ever so slightly, just what had Bukubukuchagama created?

"Mare!" Aura cried again, no doubt contemplating how to drag her brother down from his hiding place before he embarrassed them both even more.

Mare's jump was a little less graceful than Mare's, given that he nearly fell on his face, and the scent of fear coming off him made Naruto's nose twitch. As Mare got closer, Naruto could now fully understand why many would mistake him for a girl; he even did when first joining the game. Yet it was clear, upon closer inspection, that Mare was indeed a boy.

"I'm sorry for making you both wait, Lord Momonga, Lord Naruto," oh yea, Bukubukuchagama was definitely into some strange things.

"Hm, we came here today to have the two of you help us with something," Momonga shifted the staff in his grasp as Naruto stood back up, the both of them watching the twins two very different reactions.

"No way, the legendary item that only Lord Momonga can use!" Aura cried in awe, having only heard stories about the destructive power such a staff had in the hands of such a powerful magic user.

"Oh yea, you guys wouldn't believe how much trouble we went through to make that thing. It almost makes me wish I'd been a magic user just so I could try it out," Naruto grunted, eyeing the staff with a bit of envy.

Momonga went on to explain almost every little detail about his staff, listing how each stone in it was a God level artifacts and how a single shot from it could oneshot just about anything. It had taken Momonga years to level up his character, breaking the game in some ways just to get more spells under his belt, and it all came together in the ability to use such a weapon. Naruto himself had his own special weapon, one he created himself without letting the guild know, and watching Momonga made him want to bust it out just to see what he could do with it.

"We'd like to run some tests with it, could the two of you assist us?" asked Momonga, having a bit of trouble staying in character once he got into describing his staff.

"It would be our pleasure, Lord Momonga. We'll set up the field right now!" Aura said happily, nearly bouncing for joy at this point.

"Oh, and the other floor guardians will be coming here soon, so we'd best prepare for them as well," Naruto pointed out, watching Aura pout at the possible reality of Shalltear showing up as well, much to the Demon's amusement.

A few moments later and two massive monsters could be found setting up two large targets, stabbing the base deep into the ground as to make sure they didn't fall over when Momonga unleashed his first spell. Naruto, meanwhile, was mentally going over every skill, spell, and passive ability he had for his character. The strange thing was that he almost instinctively knew all of that already, as if they had gone from simply being an icon on a screen to being a part of him. An even stranger thing was how accepting he was of his new situation; he should be freaking out right now!

"Summon: Primal Fire Elemental!" Momonga's sudden flare of power brought Naruto's attention back to the present, just in time to watch both targets suddenly burst into flames and form a massive monster made entirely of flames.

"Ha, that monster's level is in the upper 80's, now that brings back memories," Naruto's and seemed to instinctively rest on the hilt of his katana, his already red eyes seeming to glow with power.

"Indeed, Naruto, would you guide the twins in a fight?" Momonga asked, remembering how Naruto always loved to fight monsters at least five levels above himself.

Sure he was a max level now, but his new thought process was compelling him to crush it with the most destructive attack he knew. Aura and Mare, on the other hand, were looking at Naruto like two kids waiting to be told they could go play with their best friend; well at least Aura was.

"Well," Naruto shrugged with a grin on his face, "I suppose I can play with the twins for a bit."

"Yay!" Aura cheered, throwing her hands up into the air as she jumped around in joy.

"I feel better that Lord Naruto is fighting with us," Mare admitted, not wanting to fight the giant creature with just his twin sister.

Momonga walked off to the side of the arena and just gazed out at his best friend, not remembering Naruto smiling so much since before he was hospitalized. Their personalities have no doubt changed, he himself didn't feel much emotion at the moment and only really felt something when he thought of his guild. Naruto, as Momonga observed, now seemed to have taken on the basic traits of a demon from YGGDRASIL, including their desire to fight.

"Grand Fire Elemental, attack Naruto and the Dark Elf twins!" Momonga commanded, the red jewel on his staff glowing as he gave the command.

The giant fire monster didn't disappoint, moving to attack the moment Momonga gave the order. Aura was the first to charge in, her legendary whip in hand, while Mare stayed back by Naruto to provide support magic when needed. This was how Bukubukuchagama designed them to operated, one with overwhelming combat prowess while the other provided support from a safe distance. Meanwhile, Naruto simply stood there with his arms crossed and a fanged smile nearly splitting his face in half. This was so much more fun that a normal video game!

"Aura, move out of the way, it's my turn to attack now," Naruto commanded as said Dark Elf came skidding to a stop right next to her twin, a very happy smile present.

"No way, Lord Naruto is actually going to fight?!"

The Demon reached out into the empty space in front of him, his clawed hand going into a massive of shadows, before pulling out a rusty old sword that looked like it could fall apart at any moment.

"No way," Momonga said, "You actually kept that thing?"

"Well of course I did, it was the first weapon the guild gave me when I first joined up. I said I would never throw it away," said Naruto as the fire monster brought down its massive hand on Naruto's position.

"Warrior Art: Single Slash!" Naruto lazily swung his blade just seconds before the creature could hit him and the twins.

The air was calm for a moment, the monster stood frozen with a flaming claw just inches away from Naruto's face, before everything suddenly exploded. One of the passives Naruto gained, selectively from the warrior class, was that any weapon of a lower level could temporarily increase its power for a single attack. This passive was only able to be used once per weapon and each weapon had a cooldown period of thirty minutes. In Naruto's case, the sword in his hand went from a lvl 1 bronze sword to a lvl 100 bronze sword. Normally this wouldn't be enough to take down such a high level monster, but that all changed when Naruto used his Single Slash attack. It was an attack that transferred eighty percent of his base attack damage into whatever weapon he had equipt in his right hand.

The end result of all this was a massive explosion that sent a column of fight blazing into the sky, lighting up the sky for miles around, and consuming the entire coliseum. When the fire eventually faded away, Momonga was revealed to have a purple shield protecting him from damage while Naruto stood in front of the twins with his hand held out in front of him. He had blocked them with his own body, seeing as he didn't want to accidently harm them.

"Well, I'd say I still got it," Naruto grunted, putting his weapon back into the black void just before he felt something small jump on his back.

"That was so cool, Lord Naruto! That just shows how amazing you are, using a normal weapon to take down a big monster with a single swing!" Aura laughed as she climbed up Naruto's back and sat on his shoulders, completely ignoring her brother as he fell to his knees with a panicked look on his face.

"B-Big sis, what are you doing with Lord Naruto?" Mare's stuttered words seemed to knock some sense back into Aura, who quickly jumped off of Naruto's shoulders and began apologizing profusely.

"Sorrysorrysorrysorrysorry!" Aura continued on like a machine gun, bowing over and over until she felt a clawed hand rest itself on her head.

The female Dark Elf slowly looked up at her Lord, afraid she had made him mad in her excitement, only to turn completely scarlet at the look her was giving her. His sharp and demonic facial features seemed more relaxed now, not to mention how his eyes held a gentleness in them that was almost inhumanly beautiful. This beautiful demon man was her lord and she never wanted him to leave, not like her own creator did.

"It's alright Aura," Naruto gently ruffled her hair, remembering how his mom used to do this for him to calm him down, "I'm not upset."

"Are you two having fun over there?" Momonga asked, shattering the special bonding moment like glass.

"Way to ruin the moment," Naruto deadpanned, standing up and taking a single step in Momonga's direction, seeming to appear at his friends side in the blink of an eye.

"You were taking too long, besides the other floor guardians are about to arrive and Sebas found something strange," now that caught Naruto's attention, for what else could have changed?

"Well well, it seems I'm the first to arrive," a very smooth and seductive, in a high class kind of way, voice came from a black and red portal.

It would seem Shalltear had arrived, which was soon followed by most of the other guardians. Naruto and Momonga, unknown to each other, followed the same thought process of find out everything they could about this new world. They'd both been max level in YGGDRASIL, but who knows how they would stack up to others now. Neither of them really even wanted to return to their old world, especially Naruto, and felt this could be a new chance to actually mean something. Unknown to either of them, they had unconsciously began leaking out some of their vast power. A soul sucking black aura formed around Momonga, seeming to drain the life on of the air itself. Naruto's aura, on the other hand, was like a crushing weight of pure chaos and domination; as if an ocean of raw power had suddenly descended upon them.

"My Lord Momonga and Lord Naruto, we the Guardians pledge our fidelity," Albedo declared proudly.

"I am the guardian of the first, second, and third floor. Shalltear Bloodfallen," the Vampire said, placing her hand over her undead heart and bowing deeply to both Overlords, "I serve and obey."

"The guardian of the fifth floor, Cocytus!" the massive warrior bent down to one knee, "I serve and obey!"

"I am the guardian of the sixth floor, Aura Bella Fiora," Aura said proudly.

"I'm her brother and fellow guardian of the sixth floor, Mare Bella fiora."

Together they knelt and said as one, "We serve and obey!"

"The guardian of the seventh floor, Demiurge," Naruto grinned at his fellow demon as he knelt, "I serve and obey!"

"The leader of the Guardians, Albedo," the to knelt before her masters, "I serve and obey!"

"Supreme ones, we await your orders!" they all spoke as one, making Naruto's grin grow once more.

"Hm, talk about a New Game +."
