"You know you destroyed my bar." Rom said
"Sorry about that, but I had to destroy her in order to save Emilia's life." Naruto said as he turned around to look at the ashes in the hole and then looked around the place. The whole place is completely destroyed because he destroyed Elsa with his Rasengan. He made a big mess.
"Come of thinking it, you did destroy the whole building before I got here." Reinhard said as he looked at the damages what Naruto made. Everything is all gone.
This new blond guy doesn't seem to be knight and not from here. Reinhard learned that it was Naruto Uzumaki who defeated Elsa Granhiert, the vampire. She is known as Bowel Hunter and former of the Assassin Organization because she's high threat and wanted person. Naruto appears to be more like assassin or shinobi if his theory was right.
"So, what's happening next? What about those two?" Naruto asked as he looked at Rom and Felt that lost their home now.
"Don't worry about them. I know what to do with those two." Reinhard said. "What about you, Naruto? You're a new traveler."
"I don't know because I don't have money with me to stay at hotel." He said with a bit smile. He doesn't have that kind of money in this world.
"Naruto, you can come to my house." Emilia said with a smile as she looked at him which made him turned to her with a surprise look on his face. "You've been very helpful to me Naruto and you earned it. You can come to my place to rest."
"Really?" He asked.
"Yes, Naruto."
"I…Thank you, Emilia."
"Naruto. Naruto, wake up. We're going to my home."
Naruto was awakened by the girl's voice as his eyes were opened in the bedroom and saw Emilia who woke him up. Wow, she's up early than him because he doesn't wake up until 10 or 11 in the morning. But right now, he remembered they have to go home and Emilia wanted him to live with her since he didn't have any houses at capital.
"Good morning, Emilia." Naruto said as he yawned while stretching his arms up. He needs to be ready before heading to Emilia's house.
"Morning, Naruto. How was your sleep?" She asked.
"Much better!" He said as he got off the bed and went to the chair where he placed his jacket was. His weapons are on the desk, so he packed both of them. But, he's missing something. Then, a finger tapped on his shoulder as he turned to see Emilia who tapped him and she held the metal headband.
Naruto smiled to her as he grabbed his headband from her. "Thank you." He said.
"You're welcome. This headband seem to be very important to you." Emilia said as she watched him wrapped the headband around his forehead and noticed there was a strange symbol on the metal. "What is that symbol?"
"This symbol means leaf. It was representing my village. It was mainly mean that two clans had a friendship. So, it was indicated to be the symbol of the friendship." He answered.
"Oh…" She understood as she nodded. "Then, it must be special to you."
"It's special to me because my teacher gave me his own headband at the gradation. He comforted me not to give up my life and my dream, so he gifted me after I saved his life. He wanted me to become a great man to make everything to be peaceful." He smiled. He never forget that time Sensei Iruka comforted him and gave him his own headband.
"Your teacher must be the great. I'm sure he'll be watching you." Emilia smiled about his story. It was sweet story between Naruto and his teacher.
Naruto nodded while staring at his headband. He was wondered how things are going in his world. For sure that everyone were looking for him that he had been vanished. They don't have the portal jutsu, but Sasuke does and the only one who can use it. It'll take him a while to find him because this world is new and will be hard for him to find it.
The new world wasn't too bad at all. Everything is fine, but it just like he need to get use of it.
"Naruto…?" Emilia asked softly as Naruto snapped out from his thoughts and turned to look at her. "You seemed little distant... are you okay?"
The blond man stared at the silver-haired girl until he realized she was worried about him. Emilia is very care and sweet. "I'm fine Emilia! Don't worry. I'm just trying to figure things out-ttabayo!" He assured.
"Good." She smiled. "Naruto, the breakfast is ready in downstairs."
Naruto nodded as he and Emilia went out of the room. They walked downstairs and found the breakfast on the table. Emilia was the one who sat down first before him, but she looked at him and saw him doing a pray.
"Itadakimasu!" Naruto prayed as he began to eat, but he noticed Emilia is looking at him. "What's up?"
"Itadakimasu? What was that mean?" Emilia asked.
"It means thanks for a food. It's a kinda religious thing in my homeland." Naruto said, but surprised that she doesn't know about that. Maybe, this world is fantasy without knowing about his language. "You should say it, too."
"You want me to say that?" She asked.
"Yeah, it's for respecting people who cook the food for you."
"O-Ok…" Emilia said as she did a pray like he does. "Itadakimasu!"
"There you go! Now, we eat the breakfast-ttabayo! Remember, before you eat, you always say that word." Naruto said.
Emilia nodded as she started to eat the breakfast. Well, she learned a new word from him.
Man, this road is very long and far. It took them about some hours to get Emilia's house. Naruto didn't know her house is away from the capital.
"Where are we?" Naruto asked as he sat next to Emilia in the carriage while the rider is riding the horses.
"We're almost there. We just passed by the village." She said as Puck flew out from the crystal and looked at them. The cat creature met the blond man again and heard what happened from last night.
"Lia told me what happened from last night. Thank you for saving her life. If you hadn't been there yesterday, she wouldn't have been killed by assassin. I wished I can save her, but I'm just glad you were there with her." He said.
"It's no problem. I'm just glad I'm here with her." Naruto said.
"I'm sorry that I didn't do much to help you, Naruto-sama." Emilia said as her hands are clenched for not helping Naruto. She felt so useless.
"Don't worry about it, Emilia. You've already saved me twice. Why wouldn't I repay the favor?" Naruto asked.
"No, Naruto-sama! I-I wasn't-"
"Just call me Naruto. I can see it in your eyes. Don't be hard on yourself. You are strong." He said.
Emilia had never been on a first name bases with anyone because she always says that to respect everyone. But, it's rare that Naruto told her not to say that word. He even became her first friend without asking him because she's a half-elf. She never had been friends with human because they hated her. However, Naruto doesn't seem to be afraid of her and isn't like the others. He's a strange one, but he's very nice human.
It's very nice that he encouraged her not to feel bad on herself when she looked down. Naruto is a sweet talk and good soul.
"Thank you, Naruto. You're very kind man." Emilia smiled.
It was funny that Puck likes to be with Naruto around. He's usually very caution for humans and demi-humans, but perhaps he only like Naruto.
"So, Puck. Why did you call her Lia?" Naruto wondered.
"Because I created a nickname for her." Puck said as he flew toward him and landed on his hand to relax. This feeling is very nice, warm, and comfortable to sit on it.
The spirit creature looked at Naruto in his eyes and suddenly got chilled down his spine. What was this feeling from Naruto? Those eyes of his have experienced people's death and war, but there are more than that. It was almost like he has fought the war before.
He won't lie about his eyes, but they're strong ones. No knights or the others don't have that kind of the eyes."Puck?" He asked.
"Puck?" Naruto asked.
Puck snapped out and delivered a smile to him. "Sorry! Sorry! I was just thinking of things." He said.
"Uh-huh..." Naruto said as he began to touch Puck's fur and his fingers went under his chin.
Seriously, Puck's fur is hella soft and pretty strong. He won't lie about him, but he's pretty much stronger than Akamaru. His friend, Kiba's pet won't stand a chance against that small cute creature.
"Hey, hey, Naruto." Puck whispered in his ear as the blond man looked at him. "Can you do me a flavor?"
"Sure, what is it?"
"Well, actually Lia is one hundred and fifteen. She knows everything, but…" Puck said as he looked at Emilia and back to him. "Can you teach her something? She's interested how you speak and words."
Naruto froze at the first sentence with blinking his eyes that Emilia is one hundred and fifteen year old. She looked like 17 year old, but no she's far older than that. "Sure-ttabayo?" He wondered not sure how to say.
Wow, he didn't know that Emilia's age and wants to learn new words from him. It was actually same thing from his world, but she doesn't know anything about it. Yep, it's a promise to Puck that he'll teach her how to say it like him.
"What are you guys whispering about?" Emilia asked curiously.
"Nothing, Lia!"
"Yeah, it was nothing! We just talk about friends-ttabayo!"
Both of two boys gave Emilia a thumb up at the same time. The half-elf started to show her cute pout at them for not telling her. It wasn't so fair how those boys are hiding from her. She wants to know what they are whispering about.
"She's suspect of us." Puck whispered.
"Don't worry about her. As long as we can keep it quiet, so Emilia-" Naruto scream in painful as he and Puck's ear were pitched by Emilia's hands.
"Don't try to hide from me, you two. If you keep this up, I'll get mad!" She glared.
"Ow! Ow! You are mad! You are mad!" Naruto and Puck spoke at the same time as Emilia lets go of their ears.
Naruto and Puck were touched their ears after Emilia released them. Damn, that's hurt. She pinched them really hard. She's maybe a beautiful girl, but she has mother personality and they don't want mess it up.
"We're here!" Puck said as Naruto walked out to see outside.
This place was huge! A massive garden with fountains and walking paths took up the large area. Damn, they got everything! Mostly for the huge ass house!
Naruto doesn't know how to say about her mansion. This is pretty big. He wished he have a house like that because he only lives in the apartment. Whoever owned this place was ridiculous. When he got off the carriage, he followed Emilia to her mansion while exploring the big place.
"Emilia, you own this place?" He asked.
"Oh no. It was Roswaal-san who owns this mansion. "Emilia said.
"You seem very shock." Puck said as he sat on Naruto's shoulder.
"Yeah, I am. I…I don't know how to say, but this is amazing. Is he living by himself?"
"Nope, he's not. We have three people live in the mansion." Emilia said.
Naruto nodded as they entered the mansion and he looked very shocked. Inside of the mansion, the room is hella big. The details are so nice. The pictures are all over on the walls and the other stuffs. Speaking of which, the blond man didn't see anyone live here. Yeah, he knows that Puck told him the owner isn't alone in the mansion.
Still, where's everybody? It's so quiet in here. He thought there'll be more people.
"Welcome home, Emilia-sama."
The blond man heard two persons who called Emilia's name as he turned around to look who it was. He saw two girls with maid dress. They're all wore same dresses, but something different about them.
The girl on the left has medium length light pink hair that covers her left eye, and darkish pink eyes. She also has hair clips towards right side of her hair. The other girl on the right has medium length sky blue hair that covers her right eye and light blue eyes. Her appearance looks same as the girl with pink hair.
Both of them are twin sisters, but their eyes and hairs are different. The girl has pink eyes and pink hair. The second girl has blue eyes and blue hair.
"Hello, Rem and Ram. Where's Roswaal?" Emilia asked.
"He has an important meeting today, but he'll be back soon." The girl with blue hair said as she noticed Emilia brought a stranger with her in the mansion. "Emilia-sama, who is this new guest?"
"His name is Naruto Uzumaki. He saved my life from the attack. He doesn't have a home, so he'll be living here with us." The sliver-haired girl said.
Naruto saw the two girls bowed him for living here in the mansion. He always sensed their aura to check if they're strong and yes he guessed right. They're incredible except the girl with a pink hair. There was strange about a girl with blue hair. Her aura is stronger than her sister.
He gave them an awkwardly waving hand gesture. "Hi, it's nice to meet you two." He greeted.
"Welcome to your new home, Uzumaki-san. I'm Rem." The girl with blue hair introduced. "This is my sister, Ram."
"It's nice to meet you, Uzumaki-san." The girl with pink hair said.
"You can call me Naruto. Just Naruto." He smiled as he gave a wave hand to them. He didn't mean to little rude to them. It was just he felt like he doesn't like to be calling his last name and word 'san'.
"Very well then. We shall call you Naruto." Ram said.
"That's better." Naruto said as he looked around the whole place while walking. Damn, two maidens in the mansion. He thought there'll be more of them and Puck isn't kidding.
So, he met two maidens Rem and Ram, but there's one more person that he wants to meet. He always wants to meet anyone, so he'll get to know of them. That was his things because all he wanted to make friend. But, he wouldn't dare to make friend with them. This is fantasy world and people have magic. They wouldn't like to trust with strangers.
Naruto have 9 Bijuus inside him and wouldn't like to tell them about them. Afraid that they'll think of him is a demon or demi-human whatever they called. Maybe they'll attack him because of that. He and 9 Bijuus are already decided not to tell them about their secret. Not where he's form. Not kind of powers he has.
Everything needs to be seal and secret no matter until he can trust them. Yes, of course he'll find a way to get back to his world. If not, he'll have to wait for his friend to find him here.
"Hey, Naruto." Emilia said as Naruto looked at her. "I'm going to my room and change my clothes. Rem and Ram will find you a room and help you around here."
"Thank you, Emilia." He smiled.
"So, tell me… are you the only ones who live here?" Naruto asked as he followed two maidens in the hallway.
"Yes, we are the only who live here." Ram said.
"We don't have lot of guests who live here. You're our first guest who going to live here with us." Rem said.
"I see." Naruto said as he looked away and explored around the mansion. Damn, this place is huge and lot of stuffs.
He doesn't like saying that to them, but this mansion is really hard working for two maidens. Those two must have been working very hard for the owner. Honestly, they need to hire more maids to help the two girls. There was another option that he can help them for their work by using the clones to clean the whole mansion.
Pretty good idea to use that, but he had to wait until the owner comes here from his business.
"You two worked very hard for this." He said.
"Thank you for concern us, but we do that every days." Rem said.
"Don't you need more maidens? I mean it's just two of you."
"Rem and I are the only ones that can do together. You don't have to be worry." Ram said
The blond man nodded, but still…they need to hire more maids to help them. "I understand." He said before he stopped when he sensed the aura on his left. The girls stopped when they saw Naruto stopped.
Something strange about this door, but it looks like he's going to have to find out. He reached for the door and opened before entering the room. His face expression is amazed when he found the room of library. This mansion has a library. The books are everywhere on the book shelves. This room is very clean and quite because he sensed a one person's aura in here.
"I'm impressed you found my room-kashira."
Naruto heard a girl's voice, but her voice is high-pitched like a child. He looked it down and found a little cute girl sitting on her chair and reading the book.
She has long cream colored hair that she has tied in two twin drills along with blue eyes that have a butterfly pattern at the center. She wore a frilled dress with pink ribbons, tights, and shoes. A tiny crown lays latched upon the rear right side of her hair, with a butterfly-shaped ribbon joining her cape at her sternum.
"What?" He confused, blinking his eyes for seeing this… little girl. That can't be her…the owner of the mansion because owner likes to read in library.
"Oh yes, Naruto kun. This is Beatrice-sama." Ram introduced him to her as she looked at the girl. "Beatrice-sama, this is Naruto-kun. He'll be living with us."
"May I ask why-kashira?" She asked as she showed bad manner to Naruto.
"Because it was Emilia-sama's request." Rem answered as she looked at Naruto who had a confuse look on his face. "You seem confuse, Naruto-kun."
"Yeah, I am…" He said.
"Oh. This is Beatrice's Door Crossing. A magic that can connect any door in the mansion to her room." Rem said.
"Incredible…" Naruto thought as he sensed her aura. That girl isn't just a child. She has magic like Emilia.
"Hn." Beatrice grunted as she closed the book and put it on the table.
Since Naruto's in library, he wanted to explore for a minute. Lot of books in the shelf and so organize. This is already impressive than the library building in his world. Having library in the mansion or in his old apartment like Beatrice's room, it'll be very cool. However, this isn't just a room. He doesn't have a seeing ability, but he can feel this room isn't a room.
This magic is from that little girl. He won't lie about this, but her magic is very cool that she can connect any door in the mansion to her room.
"This is amazing library. I can't believe you used magic to connect any door in this mansion to your room." Naruto said. "Come of thinking this, I really like your magic-ttabayo."
"You are clever human for finding my library." She said as she got off chair and walked toward the blond man to greet.
"Yes, like the two maidens said. I'm Naruto Uzumaki, it's nice to meet you." Naruto said as he gave a hand gesture to shake her hand, but she doesn't look like she's going to shake his hand.
Beatrice placed her hand on his stomach. "Don't move." She warned as she started to use a magic on him
Naruto looked in confusion, but he nodded and did what she told him to do. His eyes are widened in shock when he felt his chakra is draining out. It was that little girl who drained his chakra to her. She can do transfer magic! However, his body doesn't feel tired from her. Beatrice didn't drain too much chakra from really draining, but she collected his chakra from his body. This isn't bad because he can't feel pain from draining.
She is really good at chakr-mana transfer. No mistake, but she's really good at it.
…
…
…
What a minute! If Beatrice is collecting his chakra without realize that he has 9 Bijuus, which means she's going to take…oh shit! It's too late warn her as she suddenly fell back with a painful scream. Naruto rushed and grabbed her waist before slamming on the ground from the heat blast. Rem and Ram are shocked when they saw Beatrice fell for transferring his mana.
Naruto had to check on her hand after his mana hurt her. This is bad because her hand is burned with a smoke. The one mana she transferred is Kurama's chakra. He didn't know that could hurt her.
"Damn it, Kurama!" He thought.
"It's her fault for trying to steal my chakra without asking. Remember, Naruto. We are link together." Kurama said.
Kurama is right because him and Naruto are linked together. Their bonds are too strong.
Rem and Ram were worried about Beatrice when they saw this. They rushed toward her, but she stopped them with an open-hand.
"Shit, are you okay?! Were you trying to steal my energy?" Naruto asked as he took a water bottle from his pouch and poured on her burned hand to cool it down. Then, he took a bandage warp and wrapped around her injury hand.
"I'm okay-kashira." Beatrice said as she watched him, wrapping her hand with a bandage wrap. This boy is dangerous. No mana especially from a human should harm her in such a way.
"I'm very sorry for hurting you, but stealing someone's energy is a bad idea. Sometimes the unique energy can fight back." Naruto said as he finished from wrapping Beatrice's hand. Damn, he didn't know she would collect Kurama's chakra because it's too powerful and danger for her. Anyway, that was a close one.
If she collected his chakra even more, her body wouldn't have burned by the red chakra. Luckily, she didn't.
"So I take it you are not human-kashira." Beatrice said.
"I'm human alright, but not just a human. I'm the shinobi." He said as he stood up and lifted the little girl up to stand on her feet.
Beatrice looked at her hand for a moment before hiding it behind her back and turning away from him. "Thank you-kashira."
"It was my fault, so I shouldn't have warned you before that." He said with a smile before he got launched from the room by the little girl with a powerful magic. Then, the door slammed right in his face.
When Beatrice closed the door, she looked at her bandaged hand once more from human. It was nice of that human to bandage her hand...she supposed.
"This will be your room, Naruto-kun." Ram said as she and her sister showed him where his room is. It was just normal bedroom, but at least it looks better than his old.
But, he felt uncomfortable feeling from those maidens. They saw what happened between him and Beatrice because his chakra hurt her when she tried to drain his chakra. Well damn, he didn't really mean to hurt her that bad.
"Is there anything we can do?" Rem asked
Naruto explored for a bit and turned around to look at them. "No, that's it. Thank you for showing me." He said as the two maidens bowed and they left him from the room.
Well, at least they didn't ask him a question about his mana. He's lucky that Beatrice forgiven him already.
Those two sisters are very close. They must have worked together for every day. So, he met everybody except the owner of the mansion because he had a meeting. That can wait until he returns.
He took out of his jacket and his weapons on the desk. Then, he sat down on the chair and relaxed for a bit.
"What did you think guys?" He thought.
"Just stay here and enjoy it." Son said.
"The two maidens are high alerted on you after Kurama's chakra blasted Beatrice away. You need to be careful of them." Matatabi said
Naruto nodded to Matatabi and go along with her. The two girls aren't maidens, but they know how to fight. As he's getting up now, he heard a knocking on the door caught him attention. "Who could it be?" He wondered as he went to the door and opened it. He found Emilia standing in front of his new room with a pink outfit.
"I finished changing my clothes. I hope they're not doing anything bad to you, Naruto." Emilia said.
"It's alright. I understand their reasons." He said.
Again, she wore pink outfit and almost looks a same her other outfit, but this one is pink color and her sleeves are much slender. Naruto had admitted about her appearance… She looked beautiful.
"Naruto?" Emilia wondered.
"Oh! My bad, my bad!" The blond man said with a blush as he turned away from her. "Anyways, Emilia. I know everything about the mansion, so I was going outside in the garden. Wanna come?"
"Sure."
"Wow, this is amazing." Naruto amazed as he looked around the place in the yard. It's big and long. This is a good place for him to train here in this.
"Yes, it is beautiful." Emilia agreed as she walked on his side and looked at him. When the sunlight spot on his face, he looked so different person.
Then, she had a question look on her face when Naruto walked ahead of her and moved unusual movements by stretching his legs and his arms out. She goes by observing him like she has never seen that movement before.
"Those are unusual movements. What are you doing?" She asked.
"Warm-up exercises. You know gotta warm up before doing exercise or training. Everybody does that." Naruto said. "You have not seen this before?"
"No, I don't think so." She answered as she sat on the ground and watched him what he does. At that moment, she got surprised when Naruto summoned a clone.
They looked so same with clothes and body. That's the clone he summoned to fight Elsa and saved her life from her.
"Hey, Naruto."
"What's up?"
"I saw what you did from yesterday. Was that a clone?"
"I'm surprised you know that. Yeah, that's a clone." Naruto answered as he and his clone did a fist pump.
"It called Kage Bunshin." The clone said.
Kage Bunshin? She has never heard that words before. That can't be elf's language because no one ever summons the clones.
"Wow! So, that's clone!" Puck amazed as he flew around them and looked at their appearance. "That's interesting."
"Pretty cool." The clone said.
"Yeah, it was." He nodded as he used his paw to touch the clone's face. It felt real from him. "Are you real?"
"I'm over here!" The real Naruto said as he stood behind Puck and the pet turned around to see him. "Yeah, he does look real me. Of course, you wanna ask that question. Yes, he had same movements like mine. I always used clones to use combination attack by working together."
"I see, I see." Puck said. So, this is like a teamwork attack. Same movement and same appearance. That's pretty good for Naruto and the clones to do the teamwork.
"Poke!" The clone said as he poked his finger Puck on his side of the stomach. "Ninja poke!"
"Oh…you wanna fight!? Take this, Punch-backs!" He said as he punched on the clone's face, but he took another hit from real Naruto. "Hey! That's not fair!"
Emilia watched them playing with each other so childish. Then, she started to laugh at them and three guys stared at her. "Oh, gosh… Sorry, I can't! What are you two doing?! I'm dying…" She laughed.
Hearing her laugh, it was pretty cute from Naruto's thought.
"Thanks for your training, Master Puck!" Naruto and the clone said together with a bowed.
"You have completed my training. I'm proud of you, my students!" Puck said with a deep voice.
"Please stop. You're both too funny…" Emilia stopped her laughing as she turned to look at clone before the clone dismissed himself into white poof and disappeared. "What?"
"Oh… so your clone can die itself or dismiss itself." Puck said.
"That's correct, Puck-ttebayo." He said.
"Naruto, why do you always say that word?" Emilia wondered.
"It's a catch phase. It's my favorite word. Well actually, my mother always said that word. " Naruto said with a smile. He remembered finding out that red-haired woman is his mother by hearing that catch phase.
Seeing his face with emotion, Emilia started to get worry as she touched on his shoulder. "Naruto, are you okay?" She asked before she saw the tears from his eyes. Did something happen to him? Maybe it was about his mother.
"I'm okay. Just had very emotional memories." He said as he wiped his tears. He'll never forget those words from his mother. Same goes from his father. He never had a chance to see them when he was a baby because they died to protect his life.
But, it's okay because he already knows what they look like. He already met them in the person. Honestly, he wishes them to come back and spends more time for family.
"Hey, Naruto. I'm sorry for asking that question… I didn't know that." Emilia apologized.
"It's ok, Emilia. You didn't know that and this isn't your fault." The blond man smiled.
Emilia looked at his eyes again. They were so filled with emotion, pain, respect, and hurt. Those eyes are almost like hers. Why did she get hurt feeling from him? What kind of his past that he had been through?
"Emila?" Naruto wondered.
"Are you-" Emilia paused as she heard two voices and turned around to them. It was Rem and Ram. "Oh? What brings you here?"
"Emilia-sama."
"Our lord, Roswaal-sama, has returned."
"Please come inside."
Naruto and Emilia have entered in the dining room. So, an owner of the mansion names Roswaal should be here in any minutes.
"I was watching you from upstairs, Naruto." Beatrice said as she stood next to him.
"Oh, Beatrice. Yes, I noticed you were watching us from the house." Naruto said.
"You have a good sensor. No wondering why you were called yourself a shinobi-kashira." She said
"You bet." Naruto smirked as he looked down at her right hand with bandage. "How was your hand?"
"Much better-kashira." She said.
Emilia looked at Beatrice's hand, too when she heard him asks. "What's going on? Why is her hand bandaged?" She asked.
"I-" Naruto interrupted by the door opens as he stepped back away from it until he saw a guy with clown make-up.
He's tall, well-built man with long indigo hair with heterochromic eyes, the right one being blue and the left one being yellow. He wore unusual outfit comparable to those similar to a clown. He also wore tiny black hat, black boots and a cape.
"My, my! How unusual to see you here, Beatrice…" He spoke as he looked at her playing with Puck which that made Naruto surprised. "I'm so happy you've decided to dine with me."
"That boy is more than enough of an addle-brained fool for me-kashira." She said
"You must be Roswaal. I'm impressed that you're the owner of this mansion." Naruto said as he looked at the clown guy. So…this clown guy owned this mansion.
However, he wasn't just a clown guy what because he sensed his strong aura. He used magic like Emilia. There was something strange about him because Naruto felt negative emotion from Roswaal.
"Indeed I am." Roswaal said with a smile. "You must be Naruto Uzumaki."
"That's me!" He said, but he just had a question about him... Why does his voice sounds like he's singing?!
"Please have a seat. Rem and Ram will cook the lunch for us."
Everyone took a seat at the table. Roswaal sat on the lord chair and the others sat on the opposite side. Naruto and Emilia sat next to each other while they're talking at each other. The other side where Beatrice sat at is playing with Puck.
Rem and Ram are back from the kitched with foods on the food cart. They passed the foods for everyone. After that, they stood between Roswaal like they're guarding him.
Emilia was taking a bite of the food, but she forgot something before eating that. She looked at Naruto who already noticed her. Both of them nodded and began to do a pray food.
"Itadakimasu!" They said in the same time as the others looked at them in strangely.
"H-How was it? Did I do great?" Emilia asked.
"You did great, Emilia. I'm surprised we did it in the same time, so that was good one." Naruto said with a smile.
"Really?" She surprised.
"Yeah, really." He smiled.
Then, both of them are smiling at each other. Puck was surprised that Emilia learned a new word and pray food from Naruto. He's the one who told him to teach her few things from him.
Naruto had never taste this food in his world. He always eats his favorite food is ramen and love eating at the restaurant. Guessed he had to try something different from here, so he took a spoon and dipped in the soup. He took a taste the soup in his mouth and swallowed it.
This soup is pretty good and he took another one. He actually enjoyed that soup rather than normal food.
"This is pretty good. Who cooks it?" He asked.
"I cooked it, Naruto-kun." Rem answered.
"Rem, this food is actually good. Seriously, you're gonna make one hell of a wife-ttabayo." Naruto smiled, but he noticed everyone is staring at him. "What do I say?"
"Do you realize what you say?" Ram asked.
"Yes, so?"
"Thank you for your words, Naruto-kun." Rem accepted without showing any emotion. One hell of a wife… sounds ridiculous.
"You're very kind, Naruto." Roswaal said as he put the tea cup down on the table. "You come to the mansion of Margrave Mathers, in the kingdom of Lugunica. I heard from Emilia-sama that you saved her life from the assassin, right?"
"Yes, that's correct. Her name is Elsa Granhiert. She's a vampire who tried to assassinate Emilia."
"Then, let me ask you with this question, Naruto. How did you know that the assassin is coming for her life?" Roswaal asked with a smile.
"I'm a shinobi and I have an ability to sense aura. While I was helping Emilia's insignia, I found the scent of bloodlust and evil." Naruto said with a serious face as he looked at him. This clown guy…seemed off and suddenly jumped into that question.
This guy knows about the assassin named Elsa Granhiert. That kind of looks on his face made Naruto not trusting him.
"Also, she's known as Bowel Hunter and former member of Assassin Organization. I'm sure you heard that before. Your fighting skills are quite similar hers, but much better than hers. You killed her." Roswaal chuckled.
Naruto looked at him very seriously. "Are you saying I'm one of them?"
"I didn't ask that to you. I was thinking maybe you used to be one of them, but you betrayed them. Came at Lugunica and saved Emilia's life from Elsa because you knew she was coming for her life. No knights can kill her unless high-skilled like Reinhard. But, you killed Elsa on your own."
"I killed Elsa because she tried to kill Emilia. I have no choice, but to kill her or else she wouldn't have kill Emilia." Naruto said.
"Then, tell me this. What are you, Naruto? No single human can fight off the vampire."
Naruto was opened his mouth to speak, but he saw Emilia stood up from the seat and shielded him from Roswaal.
"Naruto is not like that." She said. "I met him at the market. He helped me to find my insignia."
Then, Puck came up and flew towards Naruto to protect him, too. "Lia is right. He protected her from the vampire. If he hadn't been there with Emilia, she wouldn't have died there."
Naruto is shocked that those two are defending him from getting accused by Roswaal. Sure he can make a comeback to that man because he did with Nagato and Obito. However, when he got supported by them, he was glad that they can trust him.
"I see that Emilia-sama is defending you." Roswaal chuckled lightly as he drank the tea. "I guess you are indeed someone that can be trusted. Forgive me for accusing like that."
"I forgive you, Roswaal." Naruto said as he looked at Emilia and Puck that gave him a smile.
"You may have any reward you request. Merely state your desire!"
Reward his request? So, that means he can make any request what he wants, but he felt like Roswaal is testing him. It's almost like he's watching him and wanting know what kind of person is he. That clown wants to know his secret. He can make a leave the mansion, but he doesn't any place to stay. Guess he had no choice, but staying will be his best option if that can make him go back to his world.
Before Naruto's choosing that option, Kurama and the other 8 Bijuus warned him about Roswaal. He's pretty strong, but he's no match against him. " …I want to stay here for free." He answered.
Roswaal smiled as he clapped his hands. "Very good! Very good! From now on, you will be treated as a guest in this place!"
