As always remember that I suffer from ADHD and it is difficult for me to concentrate on a single fic and until I get the one I have in mind out of my head it is impossible for me to concentrate on another and I usually manage to get it out with 1 or 2 chapters, I know that now I have TDP in the head so possibly my next update will be Draco Inquisitionis and this until my brain randomly decides to focus on something else
Finally my university is killing me in 33 different ways
Enjoy the fic and please do not forget to give favorite and review that helps a lot to keep my concentration

=Time=
I do not own Naruto or The Dragon Prince
-The void of absolute nothingness-
=All the time and no time=
Naruto was floating in an infinite void, the concepts like now, before or future did not exist, nor did the concepts of up or down or right or left, even the very act of existence was a contradictory process in the world of nothing since if something exists in nothing or the void there is something inside that void therefore it is no longer a void but a place that keeps the person or object that occupies the void
But none of this philosophy, or possibly empty words, mattered to Naruto in this world of nothing, he could be everything, he could see the past and future at the same time, he knew himself completely but at the same time his very self was something unknown to him. , he could see all the what ifs, all the routes that his world could have taken, he saw himself with Hinata, Sakura, Tentent, Temari and an infinite amount of different women, sometimes with only one other times with all of them, sometimes he was a man, sometimes he was a woman, sometimes Sasuke was a woman, sometimes he was a man, sometimes he and Sasuke were something between a woman and a man
Life and death lost their meaning, concepts such as Man or Woman lost their meaning, the very words that he is thinking at this moment lost their own meaning and were not born in his mind, his thoughts moved from one to another without much coherence or connectivity, his mind was a knot of impossibility that cannot be untie, that disappeared and did not exist but was reformed again
The lie became true, the truth became a lie, everything revolved around him and him revolved around everything, the certain became uncertain, the uncertain became certain, the world of contradiction made sense, a world of lies was born and he died at the hands of those who look at him, the blind and dumb began to speak and see but they did not see the world of illusions that we created to keep them comfortable, no, they see beyond the lies and could observe the world as it is
A blank page filled with ink that forms words, explaining situations and places, words that unified, tell a story that is formed and opens in the reflection of the eyes of a being that looks at them through a glass portal of lights of three colors whose combinations create unimaginable images, opening thousands of possible universes for the impassive and insatiable observer who consumes them
A world broken and divided by illusions and truths, by necessity and ignorance, by protectionism and defense, by justice and revenge, a world broken and divided in two by justices about justices that are hardly distinguishable from revenge , a world where the lines between an act of justice and an act of revenge are difficult to define , the world of emptiness and nothing does not help to understand the state of this world of two faces that yearn to be one
A world of blue and white that contains a possible infinity of stories and worlds, some dead and abandoned, others yellow with an end, where beings who can create worlds as easily as they see them, worlds are born and die in this universe of blue and white
A sheet of paper, a little ink, three colors, red, green and blue, three colors that tell absolute truth and closed lies, three colors that tell countless and sometimes unattainable possibilities.
A candle goes out on the table completely and nothing
a quill falls
The ink stains the white sheet of endless possibilities
The ink creates with the help of the quill and infinity
The creator's hand stops, tears fall
and something is born
The cosmic cat of absolute infinity played with the Yarn of Destiny, unrolling it on the river of celestial possibilities, where the fishes of decisions and free will gladly swim with absolute concentration and dedication.
The cat looks directly into Naruto's eyes and with a Fluffy that contained truth and lies, he hit the lost ninja with his fish tail.
nothing becomes everything
stain reality with the ink of creation
ink reflects in the eye of the beholder
And

-Kalik Beach-
=945AE=
(AE= After Exile / Canon Starts 956AE)
Naruto woke up startled on a beach that he did not know
"Ow, my head, what the hell was that…"
I'm not sure Kid, it was….weird
"Don't even say it Kurama, I can't understand what happened there"
Don't even try it, you had a showy way to infinity, only an infinite being can understand what really happened there, another being would not survive
"So I should ignore what happened there?"
Yes, remember what happened, we are in a new world…...and you have a new body
Naruto wondered what his ancestral friend was talking about, so he looked down to check his body, getting the surprise, his body was the one he had when he was four years old! Taking that surprise, he tried to see his chakra to make sure that he was not ruined with his new body, taking the surprise that even though he felt his chakra he could not do anything with his, he did not feel the chakra of him pathway
"My body! My chakra!"
You do not remember? The old man told us that this could happen, it is possible that this world has another type of energy so your chakra will not be stable until you can connect a little to this new form of energy and this world
"Okay, I'll try Sage Mode, I can feel the Natural Energy, although it feels….weird"
After saying this to his old furry friend, Naruto begins to meditate absorbing the natural energy of the world, something that is costing him a little more due to his new body, this because being a new (or old?) body that is not used to it, the energy balance costs him a little more
After a few minutes of meditation, Naruto manages to enter Sage Mode, his eyes changing to a yellow color with his pupil changing to that of a toad, finally around his eyes a red pigmentation appears.
Within Sage Mode, Naruto didn't feel an immediate difference, until he started to focus and started to feel something, he felt like knowing there is something there, but no matter how hard you look or try to get it you can never find it or grab it.
Naruto knew there was something extra there, something he didn't feel when he was in his world, it was something strange, he felt that "something" in the Natural Energy of the world, but he couldn't identify what it was and the more he tried to grab that "something" the more easy it became to be able to even feel it, so after a few frustrating minutes of trying to obtain that mysterious "something" within the Nature of the world, Naurto leaves his Sage Mode
"That was weird…I wonder what it is, what do you think Kurama?"
…
..
.
"Kurama?"
Zzzzzzzzzzzzz
Hearing only snores in response, Naruto gave up on contacting his fox friend.
"Well, I'm a badass ninja who had powers almost to those of a god and lost them, in the body of when he was four years old" Naruto said to himself, getting up from the beach
"I guess I can use my ninja training to steal or make a reputation as a mercenary, I never liked to kill, but I guess if they're bandits or warmongers it wouldn't be so bad...and first order, stop talking to yourself"
With those words finished Naruto walks towards the place where he felt the greatest concentration of life while he was in Sage Mod, something that took him a couple of days of walking, fortunately Naruto had experience living in nature so getting food and water during e trip was easy for him
The closest place with the highest concentration of life was a city made of stone, on a nearby sign he could read that the name of the city was Katolis, although Naruto felt more surprised by the fact that he could read what it said. sign since it used a script unknown to him, but the young ninja deduced that it was something related to super gramps
Taking a deep breath and looking at the new city in front of him, Naruto started down the missing path.
-City of Katolis-
=949AE=
It has been 4 years since Naruto came to this world and that time Naruto discovered a lot about this world, in the first place this world was divided into 2 by a lava river, the western most part were the so-called human kingdoms, which included the kingdom where he was now, Katolis, to the north of Katolis was the Kingdom of Duren, to the West of Duren was the Kingdom of Neolandia, to the south of Neolanida was the Kingdom of Del Bar and to the north of this, outside the continent , on an island very close to the mainland was the Kingdom of Evenere, also to the east of Evenere were the Independent Islands. While to the East of this continent, crossing the river of lava known as The Border, was the land of Xadia, a land full of magic, inhabited by different creatures and elves of different types.
The elves that inhabited the lands of Xadia could be divided into six different subtypes, each based on what the people of this world called Primal Sources of Magic, The Moonshadow Elf, his favorites because he had heard that some were like ninjas, elves connected with the Primal Source of the Moon, Startouch elf, connected with the Primal Source of the Stars, the Sunfire Elf, connected with the Primal Source of the Sun, Skywing elf. Connected to the Primal Source of Sky, Earthblood elf, connected to the Primal Source of Earth, something Naruto suspected was that something he felt in his Sage Mode and the last tribe, the Tidebound elf, connected to the Primal Source of the ocean
The Primal Sources allowed the elves to do magic, from that source, that is, the Sunfire elf could do Sun Magic, this connection with a Primal Source was called Arcanums and it was something that all living creatures in Xadia possessed…but not the humans or most creatures living in the human realms, without an Arcanum humans couldn't use magic, but humans got Dark Magic, a type of magic where the magic of other creatures is used to cast spells, Naruto found this type of disgusting magic, especially because of her status as a Sage she could smell the corruption and death of the Dark Mages
In these four years Naruto managed to forge a reputation in the kingdom, as The Fox, a mercenary who is mainly in charge of work related to subterfuge, as he never came into direct contact with his clients, none suspected that Naurto was actually a child less of 10 years old, although everything would change when a certain man contacted him to talk to him in person, normally he would reject him but the gold offered was too good to say no, besides the fact that he had not specified that it would be face to face, just being in the same place
-City of Katolis-
-Abandoned Tavern "The Sweet Fox"-
=949AE-March 20=
Naruto was in one of the darkest corners of the roof of the abandoned tavern that he used as a meeting point, normally the clients left a letter with the mission and the next day there would be a response with the price, if the price was acceptable the client should leave half of the payment, once the work is completed the other half must be left, if a week goes by without the other half of the payment, Nauro would simply steal twice what is owed from the client
Horrow of Katolis, current King of the kingdom of Katolis, was standing in front of an abandoned tavern, with a knife stuck on the door frame, the knife had a red cloth tied to it.
"A red cloth, that means he's in town and accepting jobs right?" The king asked his friend and his High Mage, Viren
"That's right, he should be inside" The Dark Mage answered.
"I never thought I would hire an assassin to protect my children" said the king with a heavy sigh, not wanting to have a professional assassin as protector of his children.
"Who better to protect your children from assassins than other assassin?"
Without responding to his best friend, Harrow entered the abandoned tavern.
After a few moments for his eyes to adjust to the darkness, the King began to speak, not knowing if the assassin was at the inn.
"Fox, I am King Harrow"
Silence
The silence and lack of response infuriated the Dark Mage who began to shout
"Show yourself a Assassin, you are in the presence of your King"
Before long, one of the rare knives used by the assassin known as Fox impacted between the feet of the Dark Mage, this weapon had a piece of paper tied, after recovering from the weird knife, Viren picked up the paper and read its content aloud
"He is not my King, I serve neither crown nor ruler, much less one whose anger could continue the cycle of hatred and death, but I am willing to listen to you, speak Ruler of Hidden Wrath and tell me your request"
Harrow frowned, hidden Wrath? The only anger or wrath he keeps hidden and under control is his hatred towards Thunder, the King of Dragons for the death of his wife two years ago, how would this man know about this? It doesn't matter, his children come first
"I want to hire you, for the next 11 years"
This time instead of the note arriving with a knife, it slowly fell from the ceiling after a few minutes, Harrow motioning for his friend to read it aloud.
"11 years, that's quite a lot, what would you want that would require my services for 11 years?"
The King knew that he had his attention, so he decided to continue with his request.
"I need your help as a spy…..and that you be the bodyguard of my children, Princess Calla and Prince Ezran, yesterday on the 3rd birthday of my youngest son, Prince Ezran, there was an attempt on his life,it was just because of luck we managed to avoid it without damage, but I fear future attempts, so I ask you, no i implore you, please, Fox, protect my children"
Silence
A silence that Harrow felt lasted hours, maybe it did, but Harrow didn't know for sure, just before the wait became unbearable Harrow heard something, someone falling from the ceiling, the King turned to where the noise came from and there standing wearing what looked like a green vest with chest pockets, a black shirt with long sleeves and gloves, black pants and leather sandals with his toes sticking out in the open, was a…..boy of similar age of his how daughter , he has blond hair with blue eyes wearing a cloth mask that covered his nose and mouth
"Let's talk about business King of Katolis" Said the boy
And we finished the chapter
Yeah I know, the first part is pretty weird, as I decided to go completely weird myself nonsense for the world between worlds, as one of my philosophy professors said "The world is chaos with little islands of order" and I think what I wrote at the beginning of this chapter is exactly that
And naruto knives are kunais
I hope you enjoyed the chapter
