Azure King: Hello everyone its that time of year for my yearly birthday massive update. I am happy to work on this fic and many more for this biggest one this year. So I hope you all like and review as many as you can, as always if you have any questions please put them in your reviews.

The young man smiled as he looked at Maria, "Na…" He stopped for a moment to wonder if his old name or new one would be good. She seemed familiar and with his luck, it would be something that would bite him in the ass if he didn't take precautions. "Naruto, weird name I know…" He joked as the girl in front of him shook her head.

"Mmh, it is a lovely name." She assured as Maria gained a look of slight confusion. "I'm sorry, I don't think I've seen you at school or this town before. Did you just move?"

The young man took a moment to nod, "Yeah…yeah I did, it's pretty far but I have to attend another school due to my… wealth of knowledge. It's one of those aristocratic schools, it's also a boarding school so I just had some time to walk here from my dorm." He said rather easily, huh… guess a body that is used to lying allowed Naruto to lie just as good.

"I see. That would make sense." Maria nodded in understanding. "Well then, allow me to be the first to welcome you to your new home." She bowed with a curtsy.

He smiled at the kindness of the girl as he noticed something about her, "Hey uhh… you wouldn't happen to make sweets do you?" He asked as the girl seemed to be surprised at his answer. 'Oh no…' he said inwardly realizing he was right.

However the girl gained a slightly saddened look, "I-I used to with my mother and father, I haven't made any myself yet."

"O-Oh, I'm sorry." Naruto apologized feeling bad for making her feel like this. "I never meant-"

"No, it's… quite alright. It's not your fault." Maria tried to reassure, though she did pull out a handkerchief to dry whatever tears may fall.

…

The young man knew who this girl was, the fact that he asked the very question nailed his suspicions. She was Maria Campbell, the protagonist and heroine of the Otome game Fortune Lover. He was a bit unsure about it as he only saw artwork from the game's physical manual booklet and the ending art of the game on various endings that show Maria. She was one of the few girls Naruto will willingly admit he had a crush on in his second life.

"Milady, if it eases your mind, er… perhaps you would like to partake in… keeping me company?" He offered, trying to sound polite only for his royal side to come out. "I mean, I don't have any real friends to talk to or play with, considering my background compared to theirs." He sorta admitted, as he doesn't have friends as Nathan made sure to only have only himself to rely on.

The girl seemed to be happy at the suggestion, taking his hand to make them walk to the lake, "Yes, let's play in the water!" She offered taking off her socks and shoes to let her feet touch the clear water. "It's warm!" Maria giggled as she bent her back to also touch the water with her hands. "Come Naruto, it's fun!"

The young man couldn't help but enjoy her words, so he took off his shoes and socks to join her. He flinched when the water was a bit colder than he liked, but didn't complain as the sun above them made it soon warm as Maria said.

"Take this!" Naruto grinned, bending over and hurling a small splash of water at her with his hands, the water droplets reflecting the sun's brightness off of them.

"Eek, that's not nice~" Maria giggled before lifting her skirt to allow her legs to kick water towards the young man. "My turn~"

SPLASH~!

"Whoops, missed me~!" Naruto laughed, after dodging her 'attack'. "Try again~"

"Moh…" She whined and was about to do another chance until she saw something from the corner of her eye. "Who is that?" Turning to see what she saw Naruto became sheepish when he saw Anne who was sighing in relief at the fact her young lord was all well. "Does she know you?"

Naruto gave a weak smile to her, "Yeah, hold on," He said walking towards Anne while Maria followed suit. He gave her a pleading look towards the maid as she held her tongue. "Maria, this is Anne, my… family's houseguest."

The maid looked at the young girl and looked at herself, "Yes, I work as a maid in… training for Na-" She stopped when Naruto used his thumb to make a cut gesture across his throat, telling her to stop from speaking any further. "Er… just a maid in-training."

"Wow, Naruto to have a maid even if she's learning to be one is really lucky." Maria said as the young man nodded while Anne 'hmph' at the lie, she was a full trained maid and one of the best in his home~ Thank you very much~

"Uh, young lord? We must head home before your mother starts supper." She said hoping at least she can call him that for her role as maid.

"Do I really have to?" Naruto complained to her.

"Yes. Otherwise your food will go cold." Anne reminded the boy as he knew it was true since the family wouldn't eat without him, especially when they have news for him and his sister apparently. "Now come. There are preparations that need to be done." She said, before turning on her heel to leave.

"Mmh," Naruto looked at Maria who seemed slightly deflated at the news, but he smiled when he took off one of his rings and gave it to her. "Here, this belonged to my grandfather. I have an excuse to see you again." He wink kindly as the girl blushed at his meaning and gesture.

Maria gasped in surprise. "You're… giving this to me?" She asked, as the young boy nodded. "But… surely, this must have high sentimental value. And yet… you would give it to me, someone whom you've just met?"

"Then all the more reason for me to see you again," He said, chuckling as he enjoyed making her blush. "Besides, I have an eye for people who… catch my eyes?" The reason it sounded more like a question was because Naruto felt odd when saying it… like he heard it before… ah shit. "Nathan…" he whispered but easily hid as he looked at Maria. "Besides, you still need to splash me back!" Naruto joked before moving away, "Goodbye, Maria~"

The girl looked at the object with a warm smile as she nodded, "Until Next time… Naruto…"

HOURS LATER, CAELES MANSION

XXXXXXXXXX

"Ahhh~" Naruto sighed in content, finishing the last of his meal and rubbing his stomach. Who would've thought that this kind of food would make him so full? It's almost, if not, as good as the ramen he used to eat in his first life. 'Nooooo! What am I thinking?! Blasphemy! Ramen will always be the best!' Naruto thought to himself.

That little rant out of the way, he was grateful Anne didn't tell his mother about his new garden, patch of land, and that girl he just met. He and his sister were told to wait in their family waiting room. "This is weird…" Naruto concluded he was in a game world, no matter how many days passed.

Maria and Geordo were understandable people he knew from the game, but something didn't add right. The fact he had a sister, that doesn't make sense as he knew that the original game did not have her in. He was sure that the Prince only had brothers and not a single sister or close relative that was in his family that stood out in the game.

He watched as his sister fidget in place, no doubt thinking she was going to be yelled at or punished by their mother.

And that's another odd factor in the series, Katarina was a straight up bitch in no matter which version of the game. The fact that Katarina was more…of a normal girl than a spoiled brat was one major change to this life than the Princess in the cast now. He did talk to her and their relationship was at a good point where he can be casual with her. That was one of the good things as he liked this kind Katarina. Considering it would be harder not to let the bitchy version die, exile is one thing but he wouldn't let family die.

Oh right, the princess…there was no version of the otome game that had her in the series…otome? 'Oh shit…the guy version…' Naruto mumbled as the memory came back to the side of head.

Fortune Savior, the male version of Fortune Lovers.

The young recalled the events of the series, Fortune Lovers was the original game that he and his two friends play religiously. It was a solid game, but he remembered hearing news of a sequel but before it happened it produced a spin off and even remake of the original before the second game came out. The male spin off had the love interest of the original into females. He liked the two girls he always went for but now that he actually saw Gabrielle was here it made him wonder about the others. While the remake had-

"Children."

Naruto's pace of thought was stopped when he heard that tone from his mother, it was an important one considering when he locks on to her face she seems ok. "Something wrong mother?" He asked, knowing that besides Katarina's sudden personality shift she wasn't one to have many meetings like this.

She shook her head as their father came into the room with a… oh crap he forgot about that person. "Hello my beloved children," He said, pushing someone behind him gently as he waved for them to come closer which the two did, "I love you two with all my heart, but sadly now that you two are going to be wed into royalty we need someone to carry our family name." He said as Naruto looked confused, can't he do the fact he is a male? Or was that something only in this world that didn't care? Well then again the children he will have will have a claim to the throne so it would be more likely that he would also be in the running. So unless he wants to choose to have the same title as his father he has to stay in the royal family. That would make sense...assuming he was right…

"So I have adopted someone from the branch family to take the heir title." He said before taking a step to the side to show nervous looking, "Please greet your brother, Keith."

Keith…

Naruto while he smiled and gave a polite bow, he inwardly groaned at this child. Keith, who never had family love in his life, became a playboy in his attempt to bury his loneliness. He could understand being somewhat flirtatious to women but he was glad he tried to be a Hokage rather than chase girls all day. The Keith in the game was more or less the same, save that his parents loved him unlike the Canon one as the mother believed he was illegitimate child of her husband and also treated him poorly. The Saviors were more of a bro, often helping the MC get information on the girls from the other women he dated at academy to pull it off. Hell in the no romance ending, he and the Main Hero travel the world in order to pick up chicks...that was 10/10 bro for sho~...ok never saying that again.

Naruto shook the bad joke in his head, but in all seriousness he wanted the bro version, so he had to figure out how to keep him that way. As Katarina shakily greeted him he was happy about one thing, that while both versions of Katarina made Keith into a playboy. This one would at least be kind to him, if she got past her nervousness, it's like she believed Keith will kill her one day. The endings were both the same as Geordo who either kills Katarina or gets her exile...yeesh, the devs were not thinking kind thoughts about the villainess now were they?

He returns to his room when his father explains that the long trip made Keith tired and they would help him get used to the home where he will live for now on tomorrow. Now he had to remember things better, the male heroes that caught Maria's eyes were the same, save for two more characters in the new/remake version of the game.

Naruto already wrote down all the information on the prince so that was done, and quickly for Keith as he has to make sure his mother doesn't treat him poorly to make him into a good friend later on. Next is Nicol Ascart, the kuudere of the cast. He was a child with beauty so unparalleled that others would just meet him for that, not really a good thing as Nicol knew this at a young start and it affected him. Knowing he might make people think the wrong way, he always keeps an indifferent face to prevent it. Kind gesture but it made the few times he ever made a smile all the more powerful. This was almost like the Mystic Face of Love level kind of power...but he is a kind and sweet person once you become close to him. The problem on that is its hard to do it the normal way, but easier once you befriend his sister Sophia (who is his little sister and one of the girls you can date in the Fortune Saviors game), so he will have to keep a mental note to be friendly to the sister as the Saviors he was always next to her to make sure the Hero of the game didn't do anything untoward to his sister.

Lastly was Prince Alan, who was the twin brother of Prince Geordo, weak as a child and often got sick; the prince was often mocked at being the failure of the twins. He had a bitter inferiority complex to Geordo, he always liked Alan as he reminded Naruto of himself. Often trying to prove his worth, so he would have to also help him get over his past and the complex he has.

The last two were going to be the wild cards, it was himself as Nathan Claes. Katarina's twin brother who hated the twisted royalty and nobles who abused their powers to make his country weak. He vowed to use their own immorals against them and also became twisted. When meeting the Heroine he fell in love with her and also as a way to cement his goals married her in the good ending and-

Oooh...that's right.

In that game Nathan was also bethorth to Gabrielle who only married him similar to how her male counterpart chose Katarina, only because it was convenient. When getting Maria's best ending they end their arranged marriage as she couldn't stand their love, while if he captures the Princess he becomes the next king that works well with her.

Tomorrow after his next trip to his land it would be what he can do to help Keith. "That's right." Naruto whispers, realizing why Nathan bought the land, later in the game he becomes a really powerful mage user as he spent time experimenting on magic in a place no one would look for him at.

Great...more work!

THE NEXT DAY

XXXXXXXXXX

The young man sighed as he and Anne spent the better part of the morning rushing back to his field and thankfully with some secret payments Anne made on his behalf she was able to get the shed filled with equipment and seeds. Now he was using some earth magic to till the land for another field for flowers so he can make some at his home. If he took up flower growing at his home perhaps his mother would be more inclined to Katarina's own hobby. "Anne, you can go to the town and relax until it's time to go." He said as the woman looked conflicted on the order. "Please? It seems unfair for you to deal with my experiments along with Katarina's…Uhh eccentric ideas?"

The woman nodded as she seemed to be grateful for that, especially with the fact of the new sibling of the twins being added, god knows if master Keith becomes another spoil Katarina or this new version of the girl. She looked at the sky, "I shall be back in an hour."

With that said Naruto went to the direction of where Maria's home is, learning when he went with Anne to get some snacks before they started on his field. Learning from a few villagers and deduced their location from where he was. Rushing at full speed he easily passed by the forest as he made it to a clear field making the young man smirk at the fact he finally reached his peak and could get even stronger from his young age! "WHOO~!" With a giant leap he saw the land around him, looking at the calm yet sheer beauty of the land. "There!" He noticed a large home near the top of a hill, a long walk away from the town he and Anne recently visited.

It was a large two story house as he saw vines growing around it, which added a nice rustic look to the home. He landed with no problem as he rolled when he landed, earning some dirt that was easily patted off. He took off his jacket as he walked to the house making sure not to look too noble, as he walked to the front looking at the unattended field where nothing was growing. He walked to the door as he knocked on the door without making it too loud, "Please wait." He heard a kind voice when the door opened to see a beautiful woman…were all older ladies very attractive in this world?

This woman was at least in her late twenties or early thirties and even then it seem unlikely, the only reason he thought so was that her face seemed to be sullen with sadness. Her lovely face was the face of a maternal mother he always wished he had, kind gentle blue eyes that seem to be a soft shiny azure color, her long golden bouncy hair seem to only make her look youthful yet at the same time made her mature looks highlight even more. Her clothes were a blue dress over a creamy colored apron, that barely did anything to hide her well maintained figure that most women in his previous lives wish they had. If the fact he didn't already knew that Maria was commoner he would have believed this woman would be a noble with looks like this.

"Are you…from the town?" The older woman asked as she seemed perplexed at the sight of a young man in front of her house, looking past him to see no adult here. "Are you lost?" She asked kindly hoping to ease his worries if he was.

The young man shook his head as he tried to tame his blush, 'Dude, c'mon you work as a rental-boyfriend with married women and some girls from outside and your school. Man up!' He mentally pumped himself up, "Uh, no, I-" …Okay maybe he had a small crush on Maria's mother now…damn his hormones. "No, I'm-"

"Naruto!" Maria shouted as she saw Naruto from behind her mother and rushed to hug him as he did the same. "You really came back!"

The young man chuckled as he gave a big grin at her, "I promise and I always keep my promises!" He said with a proud look, as the girl seemed to be really happy at the kindness he showed. "Me and Anne came here again and I will be able to visit at least once a week, assuming no parties or lessons will cause me to miss our meetings." He said before realizing he possibly said too much.

Maria looked up to her mother who seemed a bit confused on the boy's words, "Mother? What does he mean?" She asked as Naruto comically panicked as Maria's mother looked at her daughter…with pity?

"I…believe he means he will try to visit as best as he can Maria." She said smiling at the young warmly before looking back at her daughter. "You can play until lunch time, please stay here and not in the forest today." The mother told her daughter, Maria cutely nodded at her request.

As the older lady was about to enter back into the home, Naruto stopped her by reaching for her hand, "Uh…yes?" She asked as the young with slight hesitation gave her a blue rose that he got from the forest run he did, "O-Oh…" she muttered, stunned at the kind gesture.

"I…like it cause it was pretty and you're pretty too." He said honestly as the woman smiled a bit, "Uh, what's your name?" That was something he was hoping to know as in the game, the name of Maria's mother wasn't ever told.

"Fufu…" she chuckled as she patted his head sweetly, "It's Rebecca Campbell…thank you for the gift, Naruto." Rebecca whispered before kissing his cheek in a harmless manner, despite Naruto being flustered for a bit…he was happy to see some of her depression fade away. He looked to see Maria who was happily waiting for him to play with her. He chased after her to the field as they enjoyed just running around.

Minutes passed as Naruto lifted his hand to Maria, "Hold still, I promise this will be great," he said as Maria, despite looking shy nodded to his request. A green light appeared around Naruto's hand as wind started to pick up around the young girl's feet as she started to float up. Clutching down on her skirt to prevent it from flying upwards. However as soon as the initial fear came, she giggled as she spun around in place, "Ehehehe, this is so fun!" She cried easily, spinning again to enjoy the feeling of flying. "How are you doing this?"

"Wind magic in a circular direction to allow the flow not to make you fly away into the sky," he said but frowned at his explanation, before speaking again. "I use the magic to make a circle to keep you flying." He said hoping the more simple version would work, and seeing her nod in understanding made him smile.

This happens as Naruto and the young girl continue to play as Naruto uses magic to make their time more enjoyable, "Naruto!" Anne's voice shouted as the two teens saw her walking towards Maria's house. "There you are." She started rushing towards the young lord as she smiled when seeing him happily playing with Maria.

"Hello, Miss Anne." The blonde girl greeted as the maid bowed kindly to the commoner. "Are you ok?"

The maid nods, walking towards the two, "I am, but sadly it's time for me and Naruto to return." She said remembering the name that her young lord told her to refer to him as. "Are you ready?"

Before he could say anything Maria's mother went outside and saw the older woman, "Maria it's time for…oh who are you?"

Naruto walked towards Anne as he smiled, "She's a houseguest of mine, we're living near the forest so we can do some farming." He said as the maid nodded to his fabrication.

Rebecca smiled at that before looking at the two, "Would you two like to come in for food?" She offered as Naruto shook his head.

"No, thanks we need to get back before my mother gets angry," he said as the woman seemed to be ok with his choice. He waved goodbye to Maria as he returned back to the home, hoping to help the young girl and her mother through the years. The poor girl's father left them as he began to believe in the cruel rumors that Rebecca cheated on him with a noble. They didn't deserve that, that man better never met Naruto or else he will be in for asskicking of his life.

IN THE CLAES MANOR

The young man was sitting next to Katarina who was in her bed…he felt awful as he let her get hurt. While he had his own fun, Katarina tried to make Keith more welcome into the family. By accident the poor boy used earth golems from his rather impressive magic and harmed their sister, "I should've stayed…" he admitted as the girl woke up, shocking him as his parents also burst into the door.

Does everyone have impeccable timing?

"-Ready to accept any punishment for it." Naruto shook his head as he drifted in and out of that conversation, before Katarina shouted at their father on Keith's reasoning to be punished for breaking his promise to not use magic.

"He's wrong, it's my fault." She started clutching her bedsheets, "I was the one who didn't listen and ran up to his doll!...I made a mess." Katarina whispered, throwing her sheets at her parents as she dashed out of the room.

"Oh I really like this version better!" Naruto chuckled chasing after her, no doubt knowing what she was going for...or who she was going for. By the time he got there Katarina was looking around and saw Naruto.

"Nathan!" She begged holding onto his arm, "Please can you-" She pointed to the nearby poleaxe that a suit of armor in a corner had for display. "Please bust Keith's door down so I can talk to him?"

…

"Yeah, okay." Naruto comically says grabbing the weapon as Katarina rushes to the door.

"STAND BACK, NATHAN IS GOING TO-" WHACK! "Whoa~! Wait next time!" Katarina shouted as Naruto sheepishly smiled at accidentally letting the weapon go when he lost balance for a moment...just because he was incredibly strong doesn't automatically make him a weapons master yet. "Seriously, Keith get out of the way. We don't want you to get hurt!" The only daughter of the family cried as she heard sounds moving away from the door as Naruto got a thumbs up from Katarina.

"Lord Nathan, Lady Katarina!" Anne cried from behind them with shock and horror in her eyes. "Put that down.

Well someone told him not to do it, so better do it anyway~! "CHOP, CHOPCHOPCHOP~!" He cried out with mock craziness as he slashed the door down with such speed and grace, it was almost like he had a chainsaw rather than poleaxe! As the door was completely obliterated by Naruto, the two kids walked into the dark room with the light shining behind them as they smiled at Keith, "Sheesh you scare us man!" Naruto chuckled as he saw the young boy looking at them with awe in his eyes.

"I'm so sorry~!" Katarina hugged the poor boy tightly.

The adoptive brother looked confused as he spoke, "But why are you apologizing to me? I was the one who-"

As Keith and his sister talk Naruto couldn't help but smile as he tossed the weapon to the side and gave the young boy a one sided hug, "Keith, you gotta understand. Siblings often get hurt, come with being a family...we're not mad, we got scared when you locked yourself away." He said softly to make the young boy understand his words. "If you are really afraid of your magic then let your older siblings help you with that. One day, you will control it and until then you will always rely on us."

The young boy's eyes were filled with hope, "You mean you'll stay with me, the both of you?" He asked with tears forming in his eyes as Katarina hugged both boys with a crushing hug.

"OF COURSE! WE'LL ALWAYS BE TOGETHER~!" She promised as the two boys smiled back at her and Keith cried tears of joy.

"KATARINA!?" Naruto paled...and slightly blushed when his mother was beyond pissed when entering the remains of the door...man she was reallllllly hot when angry. "You made your brother do this!? And Keith cried?!"

"No! I mean yes, but...WAHHHH~!" The girl twin sister of Naruto screamed/cry as her mother picked her up and went to the parents room to give her a proper punishment...100 spankings for each problem she caused. Naruto did a mock prayer for his sister, before looking at Keith who was still crying placing a single hand on the younger boy's head the young blonde said. "Welcome to your family Keith...we love ya."

THE NEXT DAY

XXXXXXXXXX

Naruto smiled as today at breakfast the family was closer than ever, thanks to him and Katarina literally crashing into Kieth room. The whole thing caused things to change for the better as due to Naruto better standing in his mother's eyes, she had no reason to look into the situation with Kieth and adores him like Naruto. He still told his father just in case to tell her about the Kieth past and the reason beside the heir status to adopt him.

Katarina seems to also earn a better status in their mothers eyes when helping their adoptive brother. "Naruto…" his thoughts were snapped when he heard his fiancé speak, touching his cheek with a finger from her hand. "I don't care for you ignoring me," she joked with a wink as her future husband scratched the back of his head in such a un-noble way.

"Sorry, Gabrielle." He said watching her using color dirt, liquids to make her own paint. It was usually unbecoming of royalty to make their own paints as they had commoners or nobles who specialize in making or buying them. "That's impressive," he mutters, watching the girl easily make a teal color with the right amount of blue and green powders.

The princess merely gave a confident smirk, "Of course, I learn how to do this in my head mentally. Even a single ounce more would drastically make the color different." She admits before making a serious look. "Naruto, I forgot, did I ever mention my siblings?"

Naruto shook his head as he already knew beforehand, "No, I mean I know of your brothers." He said as the girl looked at him confused. He started to sweat wondering if he landed on a doom flag, "Uhh something wrong?"

The girl didn't say anything as she bottled the jar of teal paint, "No, but I don't just have-"

SLAM!

Naruto's eyes became razor sharp glaring to the door that was widely and loudly open, he jumped towards his young fiancé's side and stood in front of her and the enemy who entered. Ignoring her enamored look as he saw a young girl walking in, showing a frown on a girl that made his heart skip a beat. It was a silver haired girl with short hair, wearing a coat and pants suited for young males rather than a girl who was a cute dress. "Sister, is this really the man who you want to spend your life with?!"

"...Sister?" Naruto turned to his fiancee who chuckled awkwardly as she nodded.

"You see, this is my twin sister, Amelia Stuart," The girl gestured to the silver beauty, "And I guess she was worried for me."

"Yeah!" The silver haired girl looked at Naruto with a dark glare. "And I'm not ever giving her up to you!" Amelia vowed as Naruto sighed...and of course the female equivalent to Alan would be here.

OK WORLD WHO'S NEXT!? A EVIL WOMAN WHO IS IN LOVE WITH HIM!?

CHAPTER END

AK: And that's a wrap, just to clarify its just only Gabrielle and Amelia who are extra characters so don't expect a female version of Nicole or Keith. This is just to start Naruto harem before the other girls come to join ehehe. BUt yes next few chapters watch the powerful two dense MC getting more and more people to join their harems lol. Again enjoy your read and ask me questions in long reviews hint hint~
