Newcomers
Gyomei couldn't help but chuckle at Naruto's infectious excitement, the sound resonating in the air as they strolled along the pathway leading to the grand Phenex residence. It was a breath of fresh air for Gyomei, accustomed to the weighty responsibilities he had carried for so long. He admired Naruto's ability to find joy in the simplest of things and couldn't help but appreciate the young devil's lightheartedness.
"Merlin, huh? I look forward to meeting her," Gyomei replied, a genuine smile tugging at the corners of his lips. The prospect of having an experienced and wise Queen by his side intrigued him. He wondered what kind of magic and wisdom she possessed, what tales she could share from her centuries of existence.
"Yeah! She's so wise and knows so much! Sometimes she tells me I shouldn't eat candy that much, but it's so hard!" Gyomei chuckled, realizing once again that he was conversing with a child, even if he was his future king.
As they continued their leisurely walk, Naruto animatedly described Merlin's unique personality and abilities, painting a vivid picture of a mischievous and eccentric sorceress. Naruto's words were filled with admiration and laughter, as he recounted anecdotes of her adventures and the wondrous spells she could conjure. Gyomei couldn't help but join in the laughter, his anticipation for their meeting growing with each passing step.
"Well, here we are," Naruto announced with pride and joy as they arrived at the grand entrance of the Phenex residence. Its imposing structure stood as a testament to the noble lineage that resided within.
The ornate double doors swung open, revealing a bustling scene inside. Naruto's loyal servants, clad in elegant attire, greeted them with utmost respect and hospitality. The Phenex servants, recognizing Gyomei as Naruto's newly invited piece, bowed deeply and welcomed him with warm smiles. Their genuine gestures made Gyomei feel both honored and embraced as part of the Phenex family.
Gyomei took in the surroundings, his eyes widening at the magnificence of the residence. It was a sight to behold, a place where the legacy of the Phenex clan thrived. As he interacted with Naruto's family members, such as Ravel and other important characters, he sensed their curiosity about his role as Naruto's pawn. He engaged in conversations, sharing his own stories and learning about their lives. Gyomei felt a sense of belonging, the warmth of kinship enveloping him in this newfound family.
Later, as they settled into their quarters, Gyomei couldn't help but reflect on his new role as Naruto's mutated pawn. The weight of responsibility mingled with excitement as he pondered the challenges and opportunities that lay ahead. He found solace in the knowledge that he had Naruto and the entire Phenex family by his side, ready to face whatever came their way.
The next day dawned, and after a night of restful sleep in the luxurious guest chambers, Gyomei rose to embark on his crucial journey. Naruto had made arrangements for their visit to the Underworld, where Gyomei would undergo the reincarnation process and officially become one of Naruto's pieces.
With Naruto leading the way, they ventured into the vast and intricate realm of the Underworld. Its ethereal beauty mingled with an undercurrent of power and mystique. Naruto guided Gyomei through the labyrinthine paths, navigating with ease as though he had traversed these halls a thousand times before. Along the way, Naruto regaled Gyomei with tales of his older siblings and encounters with various devils. Gyomei found himself chuckling at Naruto's knack for finding himself in peculiar situations, his
ability to think on his feet and come out on top with a clever trick or unexpected solution.
As they reached the designated location, a solemn chamber enveloped in an otherworldly glow, Naruto explained the intricacies of the reincarnation process to Gyomei. He spoke of the sacred symbols of the Phenex clan, their significance, and the bond that would be formed through this ceremony. Naruto emphasized the trust and camaraderie they would share, promising Gyomei that he would be by his side every step of the way, through the challenges and victories that awaited them.
Gyomei nodded, a mixture of anxiety and gratitude shining in his eyes. He trusted Naruto's judgment and believed wholeheartedly in his cause. With a supportive smile, Naruto began the intricate ritual of reincarnation, channeling his demonic powers and the sacred symbols of the Phenex clan. The chamber filled with an otherworldly glow as Naruto infused Gyomei's being with the essence of a devil, the energy surging through his veins like a baptism of fire. The transformation was swift but profound, marking the beginning of Gyomei's new chapter as one of Naruto's mutated pieces.
Emerging from the process, a surge of newfound power coursing through his body, Gyomei stood tall beside Naruto, their eyes meeting in a shared understanding. They were now bound by a deeper connection, forged through the flames of reincarnation.
As they made their way back towards the Phenex residence, a playful glint danced in Naruto's eyes. He couldn't resist throwing a lighthearted jab at Gyomei's impressive physique. "Hey, Gyomei, remind me to never get on your bad side. I don't think anyone would stand a chance against those muscles of yours!" Naruto chuckled, a mischievous grin forming on his face.
Gyomei laughed heartily, the sound reverberating through the halls. It was a stark contrast to the seriousness and struggles he had endured in his life. This newfound camaraderie and light-hearted banter were a welcome change, a reminder that they were not alone in this fight.
As they entered the Phenex residence, the echoes of their laughter mingled with the warmth and energy of their surroundings. The stage was set, and the pieces were in place. Gyomei was ready to face the challenges that lay ahead, knowing he had Naruto and the entire Phenex family by his side.
"Oh? And who might this be?" Ravel asked, her eyes alight with curiosity as she looked at Gyomei, holding her chin with one of her hands.
"Nee-san! This is my new pawn, Gyomei-san!" Naruto spoke excitedly, a wide smile on his face.
"It's a pleasure to meet you," Gyomei said, bowing respectfully, which made Ravel giggle.
"You don't need to bow, silly. We treat everyone as family in this house. Come, boys, we were about to have dinner," Ravel called, and Naruto and Gyomei followed her, feeling welcomed and embraced by their newfound family.
Hours later, after a delightful dinner filled with laughter, conversation, and the warmth of kinship, Naruto found himself seated with Merlin, who had arrived to join them. She looked at the nine-year-old with black hair and questioned him about his encounter with Gyomei.
"How did you meet him, Naruto?" Merlin asked, her voice tinged with concern.
Naruto shrugged his shoulders, a playful grin on his face. "I was passing by a Shinto abandoned temple and found him near a bunch of dead corpses."
"What do you mean?!" Merlin's tone turned serious, worry etched across her features.
"It's okay, he probably defended himself," Naruto replied nonchalantly.
"I will trust your judgment, kid, but be more careful. You shouldn't go around without me or your siblings," Merlin sighed, her concern blending with a gentle smile. She reached out and messed with Naruto's hair affectionately.
"Hey! Stop! Don't mess with my hair!" Naruto protested, a mixture of annoyance and amusement in his voice.
Merlin laughed, her laughter filling the room with warmth. It was a reminder of the bond they shared, the love and protection they offered one another. In that moment, Naruto felt grateful for the Queen he had found and bounded over the last 2 years.

In the midst of Shibuya, Japan, a dark and brooding atmosphere hung in the air, as rain poured relentlessly from the overcast sky. The city's vibrant energy was subdued, replaced by an eerie stillness that sent shivers down the spines of those who dared to venture out into the storm. It was within this grim setting that Naruto, Gyomei, and Merlin found themselves, embarking on a treacherous mission to hunt down a stray devil that had been terrorizing the city, leaving a trail of death and despair in its wake.
Their steps echoed against the rain-soaked pavement as they moved with purpose, their senses heightened to detect any trace of the malevolent presence that plagued the innocent. Lightning crackled overhead, illuminating their determined expressions, and thunder rumbled ominously, mirroring the intensity of their mission.
As they roamed the desolate streets, their eyes keenly scanning the shadows, they stumbled upon a narrow alleyway suffused with an aura of darkness. The scent of blood lingered in the air, a stark reminder of the stray devil's recent onslaught. Naruto's grip tightened on his arm, his knuckles turning white, while Gyomei's stoic countenance hardened, and Merlin's eyes gleamed with an ancient wisdom.
With cautious steps, they navigated the labyrinthine alley, their hearts pounding in anticipation of the imminent confrontation. Each corner turned, each shadow pierced by their determined gazes, only served to intensify the electric tension that crackled in the air.
And then, they found it—the stray devil, a grotesque and twisted creature cloaked in darkness, its form distorted and unsettling. Its malevolent eyes glowed with a sickly hue, radiating an aura of pure malice. The rain intensified, washing over them like a baptism of anguish as they prepared for the battle that lay ahead.
The clash was fierce, a symphony of violence amid the cacophony of rain and thunder. Naruto's movements were swift and fluid, his agility rivaling that of the stray devil. His flames flying through the rain, each strike guided by a resolve fueled by the protection of innocent lives. Gyomei, right after Naruto ready to attack said stray devil that roared the moment Naruto attack had hit him.
Merlin only watched , weaved intricate spells that danced with the raindrops, harnessing the elements to her advantage. Her incantations reverberated through the alley, weaving a tapestry of magic that weakened the stray devil's defenses.
The battle raged on, the combatants locked in a deadly dance of survival and retribution. Lightning tore through the sky, casting intermittent flashes of illumination upon the grueling struggle. Each strike landed with bone-crushing force, each evasive maneuver executed with the finesse of a seasoned warrior.
And then, amidst the blood and rain, A feminine figure was laying down on a puddle of her own blood—a figure disheveled and broken, her eyes reflecting a haunting emptiness. She had become the stray devil's latest victim, her spirit on the precipice of being consumed by despair. Naruto's heart lurched with a mix of anguish and determination as he caught sight of her fragile form.
With a surge of adrenaline, Naruto fought with renewed fervor, his movements fueled by an unwavering desire to protect Rei and ensure that her light would not be extinguished. He pushed himself to the brink, his resolve unyielding as he launched a final assault, unleashing a devastating blow that shattered the stray devil's defenses.
In that moment of vulnerability, Merlin seized the opportunity, her magic surging forth like a tempest, binding the stray devil in ethereal chains that drained
It's s malevolent essence. Gyomei's muscles straining, delivered a crushing blow that shattered the creature's twisted form, dispersing it into a swirling vortex of water.
Silence fell upon the rain-soaked alley, broken only by the heavy panting of the victim. Naruto's eyes met the girl, and he could see the mixture of fear, gratitude, and longing within them. She trembled, her voice barely a whisper as she spoke words that would forever alter the course of their lives.
It wasn't particularly a difficulty fight but tracking and hunting down an SS rank stray devil had it's number on Naruto.
"I... Thank you for saving me who are you??" the girl's voice trembled with uncertainty, her vulnerability laid bare before them.
Naruto's heart swelled with compassion and understanding. With a gentle smile, he extended his hand towards the girls face, a beacon of warmth and acceptance in the cold rain that surrounded them.
"Well, my name's is Naruto, Do you have a place?." Naruto asked smiling
"m-my name is Ayanami Rei..." She spoke weakly and was in that moment that Naruto noticed the wound on her chest, Easily one fo her lungs had been pierced and her ribs broken.
She was losing so much blood... Naruto need help her!
but how?
He didn't know how and even tho this girl felt like an Angel, he didn't want to take her heaven from her.
"I-im dying..." she coughed blood.
"i could reincanate you as my servant but you would lose your wings..." Naruto carefully told her but she only looked more hopeless.
"M-my own family abandoned m-m-me, They wished my d-d-death, p-please don't let me die alone Naruto-san..." Tears were flooding from her eyes and when Naruto had taken care of his actions, he was already in the process to reincanate Rei in the middle of the rain.
That day, Naruto had meet his [Bishop].
