Made Naruto have Purple eyes because cought the people with purple eyes and those who don't. It's a surprising number. I never stated what Narutos' magic was because I didn't know what to call it. So I'm going with just Jinchuriki, the power of human sacrifice. It's demon Beast Magic taking a single form.
Fuegoleon Vermillion left his his vice-captain Randall Luft, His vice-captain a tall slim man using wind magic. After hearing a request from the more promising of the two members he excepted this year. He left leaving Randall to escort the other fresh pick home.
Out of over two hundred only about twenty or so make it into becoming a magic knight. Each only picking about one or two members.
The Magic knight position is nothing to scoff at, they face a incredible amount of danger. From Dungeon exploration, bandits, tratories and the territory wars happening more and more drastic every day.
He picked two himself. The First being a young girl that wasn't something impressive in a combat matter, but as a support focus she may be the post promising out of the bunch. Hopefully boy he's fallowing can keep her safe. Her name is Hyacinth Aquaria, family loves flowers he guessed. Not a name he would pick, there are so many flowers in the world to be naming some after, so why a Hyacinth?
Then comes this boy, Uzumaki Naruto put on a amazing show today along with Yuno, like Juno but with far more skill. The boy had a request, one he will hear out. For it truly determinants weather he can before a Knight or return to this village. Setting down he watch the boy seem to be in a very light panic. A woman with beauty he has never witnessed before swung back and forth. With red hair matching his mothers fire and stunning eyes filled with magic of a different kind.
Her beauty seemed fake, like the stores of elf's and fairy's. He then realized the problem. This woman matched Narutos' eyes and face. A sister or mother on a swing going back and forth. Uncaring of this cold night or the dangers that could find her.
"She's my mother." He said placing his coat around her fragile seeming body. Mother seemed to trigger something. Coming to life she went to tackle him. At the moment he discovered what she is.
She's singing with such a lovely voice, holding her sons hands specking words that hold no meaning. Spinning her around she giggled and laughed to her heart contents.
"You didn't eat." He mumbled clearly not expecting a answer from her. The woman now seeming to discover the man standing a few feet off. She became scared like a child. Holding his arm, trying her best to both look and see what he was doing, and hiding. She's terrified, she truly has the mind of a toddle. Making noises calling them words, she clung to the blond like her life depends on it, wanting to look at him.
The bright colors and robes must be strange and something she doesn't see, but not wanting to be look at. She is a child in everything but age and body.
"She's been like this for ten years, ever sense I was five. I don't know, but her mind just shut down." The captain waited for him to grow her confidets. Wrapping both hands around his the woman stood behind him, crouching ever so low clearly still terrified of the man before her.
Fuegoleon brought his hand out, fire and warmth radiating as he made a perfect reflection. The woman stopped in her tracks. In the mans hand is Naruto, his eyes, face hair all recreated through the skill and power of Fuegoleons' fire. Inch by inch she left hiding behind her son and finally she stood before the man. Eyes filled with wonder like every child he met.
She touched the dancing flame, scared feeling warmth she jumped back. Fuegoleon stared, seeing the blond clearly nervous about the entire way. His breath even seem to hitch. His breath came to a stop, before he smiled.
"What's wrong with her?" Fuegoleon was sad seeing someone in such a state, given the depressing look. Shrugging his shoulders the truth came out. Naruto didn't know, he didn't know why his mother is in this state.
"No clue, no clue how to snap her out either. It's just, all I want to do I make her smile." This is all he can do, everything he can give her. "I tried to teach her to read and write, but she just can't."
There was a pause, they both watched in silence as she held the ever changing fire. From Naruto, to her, to them both.
"I want to be a Wizard knight to help her,"
"Magic Knight." He corrected, the blond just let out a breath hearing him.
"Magic Knight, I want to grow and grow until whatever curse she has I can heal, but I will not leave her." Fuegoleon truly understands Uzumaki Naruto then and there.
A boy with born with nothing but the name he was given, given by his mother. His entire person, everything he does, everything he will do and every breath is for his mother. He will turn down a Magic Knight position and live and die as a farm boy to be with his mother.
"I respect you." Fuegoleon spoke without so much of a hesitation. "There is no rule against it, I'll allow your mother to stay in the House of the Crimson Lions. However, you are a Magic Knight, you protect this kingdom and all within. If I discover you are falling behind or ignoring your duties it will become a problem." He couldn't stress this more.
If he leaves his duty as a Magic Knight he will leave. He wouldn't allow him to live off his squad without dedicating himself to the cause.
"Of course, you have my word." The conversation didn't end there however. With the moment granted the mage crossed his arms. Staring at the boy with strange interest.
"There are nine magic knight captains in total. All having amazing abilities and magic, some more foolish in their beliefs. Others wanting nothing more to destroy strong opportunities, and two doing this in hopes to repay the current Wizard king. I joined because I believe it's my duty." He explained staring at the woman playing with his fire.
"I became a magic knight because I was born with incredible strength. My dearest sister made sure I would keep growing. As I grew I despised this royalty is all that matters. The most looked up to become nothing but idiots who never trained, never grew never fought for anything besides their own ego. I fight to change this kingdom. To give the ones who want more, who can become more have a chance. If royal or not." Fuegoleon explained his goel, what he wished to achieve as Wizard King.
He has the intelligent to win, he is the smartest captain by far, however William still remains the strongest. Yami is no one to look down on like the others. The man is something different.
"As the Wizard king one must be the strongest made the wisest of any other. Can't risk being a idiot after all." There's a angle being played here. At that moment Naruto realized this.
"Before the exam we're told by the keepers what Grimoire is given out to each child. You had one with no cover, just pages and the back. So whose grimorie were you using." He is no idiot, you don't become a squad captain nor live this long being a idiot. Each Grimoire is recorded not through the exams trial but through the wizards place in each location one can get a grimoire. A four leaf clover is rare, a legend even. A single one was recorded and that belongs to Yuno.
Not to the boy before him.
"A child was said to be given a Grimoire with a missing cover, much like the current Wizard King." Juilus grimoire is massive, well that's making it a understatement, but the point remained. Julius grimoire never had a cover. He was a joke at first. A man given a single page rather then a book. Truly he proved them all wrong.
"My magic, is strange." He paused at this, not sure how to go through this, with a long pause he showed the man his book. A single page, the front cover missing. Seeming to be torn out and discarded. There was no proof of being a clover kingdom grimoire. He's right, the book not having any front cover, seeming to be torn in half felt evil, felt alive.
The captain has never felt anything like this before, it's unnerving to be around it.
"Demon beast magic." The blond said, his eyes went wide hearing the boy mouth these words. Demon beast magic? Never has he seen, read or even been told by this type of magic.
"I used my mother Grimoire because I am terrifi-" He was slammed into the ground, a hard force crushing him into the ground. Staring forward Naruto watched his mother make a strange noise. Falling to the ground.
"Scared of your magic, that's nothing but a joke. To be scared of your magic is to fear yourself because you are weak." He didn't ignore the shift in magic, the glowing red eyes.
The growl that escaped his lips, he didn't fear him at all. His older sister is more intimidating in name alone.
"I am not weak." He wouldn't be called weak. Not by anyone, even someone that could blink and erase him.
"You fear yourself, you fear your magic, you fear something that you control. Meaning you are weak, but that's fine." Blinking the boy didn't seem to understand a thing.
"Being weak is never a problem, staying weak is. With the Crimson Lions you will never be weak again." Holding his hand out the boy accepted without hesitating.
"If I take your arm don't blame me."
He laughed hearing how the boy is, all one needs is a good father figure wisdom to give them courage. The deal is made, for the housing of the Uzumaki Family Naruto will become a mage worthy of the Crimson Lions banner using his magic, Demon Beast Magic.
He will never touch his mothers Magic for it's not his own. He will forever be running away from his own person hiding behind his mother. Much like what she does herself.
"Good, now lets go. You have your partner and the rest of your squad to meet." A nod the two finally left the small village that never before held a magic Knight. The man laughing, flying close he watch Naruto panic trying to control his mother. The woman trying to do something. Almost wanting to fall by the looks of it.
Shaking his head he smiled seeing his home. His squad, the entire Crimson Lions have been away for three months now, on the front lines between the Clover and Diamond Kingdom. The two have been at war for years now, however besides just defending their Kingdom all moves of aggression was on the Diamond kingdom.
He didn't agree with this but also despised the alternative to this problem. It's the children who fight on the front line no matter what. His home is just as incredible as he remembers. He swells in pride seeing his families palace shimmer with lights, the smell of food and music overshadowed by the laughter and joy of a homes return.
"The courtyard is for morning team training. Standard training and working on you're group combat skill." A quick explanation that will be shown to tomorrow. "This is where most of your training will be held." The door threw open, with magic alone the inside of the building left them both gaping in awe. The life style differences between those of commoner birth and lover vs royalty shown clear as day.
Every step is filled with magic, just not the one he's used to seeing. A look of wonder and amazement. He smiled seeing him like this, acting like a child he is rather then a adult.
A childhood is incredible important. Filled with creativity and promise, life and energy that leads to pure promise of great mages. Many loss this so early within life that it stunts their growth as a person in general.
"And this is the Cafeteria." With that said the red double doors were thrown open. Showing in all their glory the small squad of Crimson lions. Naruto blinked watching the group, this is the second strongest magic knight squad in the clover kingdom. There's only eleven counting the captain and himself. Why so little for a squad so famous?
"Captain!/Brother!" The group of all men and one girl yelled seeing the man finally arrive.
"Finally brought the last new brat?" The first man stepped forth a man with brown hair and a slim build. He has a scar on his forehead. He also has a stubble mustache and goatee. The man overall seemed lazy, a go with the flow type of person. "And who the lady?" They all stared, never expecting a grown women to fallow their captain. Man never had any luck with women, seeing how overbearing his family can be.
His sister rather being the overbearing one.
"She's my mother." The man didn't ignore the sign, the scared woman retreating like a child. They all seemed to catch on rather quick.
"This is the Vice-captain Randall luftair, treat him with more respect then you show me." The captain said staring at the blond. Respect didn't seem to be his talent.
After all he was insulted for picking him.
"So does he do your makeup?" He said in such a dry way, clearly a punch thrown for making that statement.
Fuegoleon smiled, he let this little makeup game pass for some time now for a single reason. Insulting him in front the entire Crimson lions would be far worse punishment. The boy yelled being held upside by a guest of wind. The captain and his Vice-captain staring at the boy. His mother just laughed floating at his side.
"Looks like you both are having a hell of a time." They laughed, the blond blushing purely embarrassed being handled like a child in such a easy way. "He does his own makeup." Having his answer the blond landed on his butt, grunting as his graceful mother land on him.
"Form up and introduce yourself. Highest ranking first." The captain spoke up. Like instructed each and every member of the lions lined up in a single file line. Naruto stands before each and every one and at the moment he realized.
He is the second weakest person here. Each one would crush him like a grape, a annoyance damn near. Letting out a air he realized just how low he truly is.
Gareth, just Gareth, the large man uses Iron Creation magic. A rank 3 senior Magic Knight.
Rokken, just Rokken, The uses Stone magic. Another 3rd ranking senior mage.
Ben Benfunk a bronze creation magic. A fourth ranking senior magic knight.
Ruben Charger a Sandstone user, Naruto not understanding the difference between stone and sandstone. What is it? Stone but sandy? The man is a 1st Class Intermediate Magic Knight.
Forte Gris, finally another fire mage, he's a 4th Class Intermediate Magic Knight.
The last member is a tiny, petite girl. Her short blue hair held back by hair-clips with the churches cross. A over all nervous look to her, from her eyes unwilling leave the floor. Her eyes a shimmering teal color with a small beauty mark under his lips. Wearing a black robe matching the style of most guilds, a seemingly to larger of a shirt made into a dress with a black belt strapped across her stomach.
Her name is Htacinth Aquaria, the small girl having a very small voice. Naruto just stared at the girl. Why did her name rig a bell?
"Naruto Uzumaki."
"Captain, Sir, what about your brother?" Forte asked lost seeing not seeing the boy.
"He will be joining us in the morning. Mother wanted to throw a celebration for him." His mother always cared deeply, her party was crying losing another child from her den. "Naruto, Hitacinth, you two will be the new two-person squad. I have hopes for the both of you. Don't let me down." The captain spoke much like one.
"Randall fallow me." Without much of a question the vice captain fallowed footstep by footstep. Out of ear shot he spoke.
"That boy, what to you think of him?" A question that took him by surprises.
"He looks promising. High spirit, we need one after all." The Crimson lions have lost many after the six months of consent battle on the boarder.
"His magic is called Demon Beast, I've never heard of anything like it, but by name we should worry." Resting his chin in his hand he thought. Staring at the window his thought and thought. Unlike many captains he made sure his choices would lead to the best decision.
He can tell by just this boys eyes he is different. He has promise to surpass himself, he can see this for his magic allows him to. "He used his mothers Grimoire, he used spells for a different Grimoire from a different kingdom." He left his shock and surprise and buried it deep. Ignoring the impossible, but now he could express his shock.
His only hope for answers is the Wizard king, worry gripped him. A cover-less Grimoire, Demon Beast Magic, born in a different country. Is it possible for someone to be born with a Grimoire and unlock their Grimoire at fifteen?
"That explains it." Naruto said hearing Hitacinth tell him about her older sister. Lilly, the sister, of cloth, that lives in the same town. "She's a woman of the church, why not fallow?" He didn't know Lilly well, knew she's always being proposed to, but she's a sweat nun that's all.
"I want to see more of the world, spread the word and love of God, protecting those who cannot." Her Family has always fallowed in the footsteps of God and the church. Her older Sister, Lily, is a nun helping a small town to keep going through the belief of their lord.
She wished to spread his word where it's needed the most. On the battlefield where all hope and love of replaced with despair and hate.
"Do you believe?" She asked staring at the purple eye mage.
"No, no I don't" His answer came quick, the minute she spoke his answer was set.
"Why?" She didn't seem cruel in the matter, just outright curious. While the other members drank, all wondering what their captain left for. The two sat among themselves, the talk of God seemed to be a boost in confidence for the young girl.
"My mother is broken, a pure woman that cared nothing for her child. Is reduced to a mindless child." His mother is proof enough.
"I see." She spoke staring at the woman he's feeding. "What about your magic?"
...
Is he really about to tell a heavy little girl that loves God he has demon beast magic. Oh yeah this is going to be fucking good. Smirking he told her his magic, Demon Beast Magic. It left her shocked, dumbfounded she quickly left leaving the blond and his mother alone.
He didn't need friends, he just needs his own strength. Or so he'll tell himself over and over again.
