The next morning, Naruto woke to the sound of his toad themed alarm clock ringing. He groaned and blushed a bit as he felt his left arm being hugged tight into a familiar smooth and soft body while his hand was being sandwiched between her wonderful thighs, even his elbow was being kept between her large breasts. While wouldn't mind staying like this for a couple more minutes, he really needed to get up to do his morning routine before he could go to school with her, and now with Akeno and Ravel too.
Speaking of Ravel, she would go to Kuoh Academy with them, but not until the end of the ball tournament. With her being two years younger than Naruto, she had been sorted into the same class as Koneko. The white haired girl still didn't know about this, so he guessed she would get pretty big surprise when she saw Ravel in the same class as her. The relationship between them wasn't the best. He didn't know what had made them see each other as rivals, since they were going so far as to challenge each other in almost everything.
Well, a little rivalry between friends won't hurt.
Looking at the clock, he saw that it was already four o'clock. Naruto decided to use a clone to substitute with to let Rias stay in bed a little longer, but before he could do anything, he suddenly felt something stirring on top of him, just below his upper chest. Lifting his head a little to look down, Naruto could see a mop of long black hair spread out on his chest, but he could also see Akeno's peaceful expression. His face began to redden when he finally felt her assets being pressed firmly into his stomach, his shirt having been lifted up a little, he could feel Akeno's smooth skin. Her arms was wrapping around his hip, hugging Naruto tightly against her body.
Naruto's face was matching Rias's hair color as Akeno began to stir against him, her body rubbing against him. Naruto's own body began to betray him as he felt his reaction harden against his will and slowly pressing hard into Akeno's stomach, which was right on top of his boxers. Naruto cursed when he saw Akeno's violet eyes slowly open and look around, and finally landing on what was poking against her stomach. A small smile appeared on her face and Akeno brought her hand down to caress it slowly but firmly through his boxers, amazed at the sight of it, earning a moan from Naruto which caught Akeno's attention.
Violet eyes met blue ones, Naruto was trying his best to control himself now, while trying to get out of this situation as soon as possible. Akeno's seductive actions were driving his hormones wild and not only that, but it would be a huge mess if Rias woke up now. Those two would fight each other again, it happened whenever Akeno tried to tease Naruto like this, and he didn't want it to happen in the morning, only a couple hours before school started.
Slowly, Akeno moved her body so her face was right above Naruto's with her assets on his chest. Her hand was still caressing his crotch slowly while she lowered her face down and licked his earlobe seductively, sending a shiver down his spine.
"Good morning Naruto-sama" Akeno whispered quietly into his ears. She really didn't want Rias to wake up right now, this was a good opportunity to make her own move. Akeno knew that she couldn't compete with Rias or Ravel for the first position in his heart, but she wouldn't let any other girls take third.
"M-Morning Akeno-chan" He stuttered, this girl was getting more and more dangerous each day, her teasing had rose another level, going as far as adults might, but he couldn't help but feel really good while her hand was doing this to him, and he still had his boxers on right now. Naruto wondered what it would feel like when Akeno used her hand directly.
'Bad thoughts Naruto!' he cursed inside his head, wondering when he had turned himself into a pervert like Issei or those friends of his. Then again, sooner or later, with these kinds of girls living under the same roof as him like this, he would have turned into a pervert anyway. The only thing that kept him from letting his hormones control his body and ravish the girls was his mind. Naruto didn't want to hurt them, physically or mentally. That would be the last thing he ever wanted to do to his friends.
"Ara, ara…ufufufu" Akeno's trademark giggles pulled Naruto out of his thoughts "You looked really excited this morning, I wonder…" She said more seductively and put some more force into her caressing, bringing a lot more pleasure to Naruto's body "… if you're always this excited every morning, or is it because you have me on top of you, caressing your 'not so little soldier' like this?"
"A-A-Akeno-chan, we should get up s-soon!" Naruto tried to reason with her, but Akeno's hand was doing some amazing thing to his crotch, even though he still had his boxers on.
"Don't worry Naruto-sama, a little fun in the morning won't hurt" Akeno smiled seductively and nipped his earlobe playfully. Right now, all she cared about was spending some 'alone' time with Naruto. Akeno knew that Rias was sleeping right next to them but it aroused her even more when she thought about what would happen if Rias caught them like this.
Naruto wanted nothing more than get out of this situation, Rias would wake up soon and worst of all, if Grayfia didn't see him out of his room before four thirty, she would come in to wake him up and what happened yesterday would repeat again. He could feel Ravel's signature was still inside of her room and was pretty low, which mean the daughter of Phenex Clan was still asleep, a chaotic situation in the morning would wake her up and that was the last thing he wanted to do, maybe it was because the tears were slowly affecting him in his feelings for her.
But why Naruto couldn't move an inch of his body, he still didn't know. Talk about the power of seduction, Akeno could be the most dangerous girl he knows, devil or not.
Suddenly, he felt her hands make it way into his boxers, Naruto began to panic, if this continued he didn't want to think what could happen between the two of them, he had to do something quick or else. Maybe a substitute clone would do just fine.
Akeno's seductive smile widened when she felt her hand was going to reach her reward, she would be the first one of all the girls that have feelings for him to actually feel what was it like, just a little more and she would be a hundred steps ahead, judging by the size of the tent what she felt poking against her skin, it would drive her crazy if she had it in her hand.
But suddenly, she felt a hand wrap tightly around her wrist, keeping her from going any further. At first, Akeno thought it was Naruto's hand preventing her from touching him, but when she felt a familiar crimson aura engulf that hand and saw it was more feminine than Naruto's. Her smile turned to a smirk when she turned her head to see an angry pair of blue-green eyes looking directly at her.
"Akeno… What are you doing?" Rias asked slowly but dangerously. She had woken up early, hoping to spend some quality time with Naruto before Grayfia or any other girls living at the mansion could interrupt them just like Grayfia did yesterday. Knowing the maid, she would probably go into Naruto's room and check on him, giving Naruto a lame excuse that she came to wake him up just like what she had said last night. But when she opened her eyes, what she saw was Akeno, naked as the day she was born, licking Naruto's earlobe with a seductive smile, her hand caressing the large tent in his boxers, earning a few quite moans from the blond boy. Rias' anger toward her queen going to a whole new level when she saw Akeno's hand was making its way into Naruto's boxers. Rias had acted before Akeno could go any further, she caught the black haired girl hand and squeezed it hard while releasing her aura to prove her point to her rival. There would be no way Rias let Akeno or any other girls step ahead of her, no way in hell.
The tension in Naruto's room rose when Rias' killing intent slowly reached its fullest, her hand was trying to pull Akeno's out of Naruto boxers. But Akeno was slightly stronger than her so the queen had no problem holding her ground against Rias' strength. Akeno's glare was matching Rias's, but she still kept the seductive smile on her face, which, in Rias' opinion, was the sickest and the most sadistic smile she had ever seen.
"Ara, Rias… go back to sleep, we are having a wonderful time here." Akeno's smirk widened when she saw a tick mark appear on Rias' forehead, she always enjoyed teasing her king, but right now she couldn't help but felt a little annoyed at Rias' appearance. Akeno was close, really close, and she knew it… but this selfish princess always wanted to have everything she wanted to be hers and hers alone had stopped her before she could make it any further.
But it was fine, she'd have plenty of opportunities in the future, now living under the same roof with Naruto, perhaps she could sneak into his bath while Rias was watching those anime of hers or trying to outdo Grayfia in cooking.
"Akeno, your room was above us… go back there and enjoy your kinky things there." Rias scolded her queen, she had believed that she actually 'educated' Akeno enough the last time they fought each other.
"'Us'?" Akeno repeated "Rias, last time I checked, there were no 'us' in this room… it belongs to Naruto-sama." She pointed her unoccupied hand to the door that lead to Rias's room "Your room was, and always will be, over there Rias, so please, return there quietly and leave Naruto-sama to me, I will take care of him for you~" Akeno finished with her hand roaming around his chest in a seductive manner. Suddenly, before she could do anything more, Rias had stood up and threw herself into Akeno's body, knocking both of them out of the bed with a pillow in her hand.
"Hey, knock it off you two!" Naruto stood up and yelled to both of them, please that Akeno's attack was finally over, but displeased that Rias and Akeno were fighting each other again, his hopes that fighting wasn't the thing that he had to face early in the morning shattered. But when Naruto looked at them, he had to turn away and hold his nose tightly, keeping himself from having a nosebleed. Rias and Akeno fighting each other while naked was like a fantasy to any perverts out there, two beautiful and incredibly attractive girls fighting each other with pillows in hand.
Rias screamed out in anger when she hit Akeno's face with her pink pillow, and was hit in the stomach by Akeno's. Somehow, Akeno had found herself a ridiculously hard one. Rias growled when the two stopped fighting, still glaring at each other. The crimson haired princess knew that if she let Akeno 'take care' of her Naruto, he could become a beast with crazy lust that could be even worse than Issei, or he could turn into a sadistic one just like the queen, or worst of all, he could become addict to Akeno's kinky ways and turn his back to her, so that he could enjoy her queen even more. Seeing the look on Akeno's face, Rias knew that if she didn't do anything about the queen's personality or let her know she was in the lead here, something might happen soon.
As if the girls knew each other thought, they threw the pillows away and called for their magic simultaneously. A crimson aura engulfed Rias' naked body while the power of destruction leaked out from her hands, Akeno's own body was emitting her own yellow aura and her eyes turned sharp, yellow magic circles appearing around her hands, ready to strike her king if she made a move. Neither of them wanted to hurt the other, but when it came to Naruto's feelings, they wouldn't hold back.
Before any of them could attack, a crimson magic circle appeared underneath both of them and shone brightly. Rias's and Akeno's eyes widened when they recognized the magic circle, it was gravity magic. As expected from the caster, both the king and her queen felt face first into the ground with a thump, Rias groaned out in pain at the force, it didn't hurt much, but she suddenly felt completely weak under the spell, with a normal gravity magic like this, it usually just felt like her body was heavy and couldn't lift off the ground. Rias' eyes widened when she felt a strange tingle on her skin, recognized it was the effect of light-base magic, the magic of Angels.
Naruto sighed tiredly and stood up from his bed, things had gone too far for his liking. Sure he wouldn't mind a little show of their naked bodies smashing against each other in a pillow fight, he would've enjoyed it. But with two naked girls that looked ready to kill each other with a serious look on their faces and their strongest magic in their hands, he had to stop them before they could destroy his house, hurting each other in the process. Naruto knew that Rias and Akeno would hold back during their fight, but still, they could do something they would regret if one of their spells hit the other. So Naruto decided to interfere before things got out of control. Casting a simple and small gravity-spell to each of them so they couldn't move their body, knowing Rias and Akeno, a normal spell like this wouldn't hold them at all, but Naruto was too afraid to use any advance spell because he would likely put too much magic in it and created a hole in the middle of his room, sending both of them to the first floor and breaking their bones in the process. So, he just needed to weaken their bodies by adding an even simpler light based spell Gabriel had taught him a while ago, making Rias and Akeno weak and completely under the mercy of his gravity spell.
Naruto stood up with the blanket in his hand, looking at Rias who was completely flat on the ground then turned his head to Akeno, who had her upper body on the ground with her ass sticking in the air. How could the sadistic queen do that under the pressure of his gravity spell? He would never know and never wanted to know… but damn.
Quickly putting the blanket over their bodies to cover them, Naruto sighed again and said with a smirk.
"This is your punishment for fighting each other so early in the morning, stay there and the magic will wear off in ten minutes." His smirk widened when he saw the shocked look on their faces. This would be just a small taste of what he had up his sleeves for the both of them. Naruto turned around and walked to the door, distressing the girls "See ya later ladies, and please, remember to behave when the spell deactivates!"
Naruto laughed loudly when both of them cursed out and shouted vulgar words to each other. Things sure got interesting at his house, all he had to do now was find more people to make his house a little happier and more fun. Naruto closed the door behind him and turned around, immediately seeing a blonde head crashing straight into him, but years of training had helped Naruto ready himself for these kinds of things so he didn't have to fall to the ground with a girl on top of him anymore.
"Huh, Ravel-chan? You're up early." He asked, surprised when he recognized the daughter of Phenex Clan, after all, she was the only one have blond hair beside him in this mansion.
Ravel brought her head up and looked at Naruto with her big dark blue eyes and he didn't need the bond between them to see the worry inside her. Rias and Akeno's battle must have woke her up, and with her caring nature she definitely would have rushed here to see what happened.
"Naruto-sama, I heard fighting, is everything alright?" Ravel asked quickly, concern clear in her voice.
"Ah, don't worry Ravel-chan, everything is fine…" Naruto grinned brightly and patted her head gently. He had found out, just like Koneko, Ravel really enjoyed his hand running through her golden locks, even giving the same expression nekomata usually did.
"Okay Naruto-sama" Ravel said, smiling. Enjoying the feeling of Naruto's hand, she moved her head to the side and pointed her hand at Rias's room "Naruto-sama, I think we should wake Rias-sama up too!"
"Don't worry Ravel-chan, Rias will wake up really soon." Naruto grinned brightly and pushed gently on her back, making her small body follow him all the way to the stairs that led to the first floor, his room was soundproof so Ravel couldn't hear Rias' voice inside of it.
"If you say so, Naruto-sama!" Ravel nodded her head and followed Naruto to the first floor.
"Now Ravel-chan, if you don't mind, I want a chocolate cake just like last night!" He said with stars in his eyes, he had found her cake extremely delicious. It could compare to ramen if it wasn't a dessert food.
"Hai, Naruto-sama!" Ravel smiled brightly and immediately rushed to work. Seeing her small frame rush into the kitchen with excitement, Naruto couldn't help but smile. "But remember that a lady was making the cake for you, I expect something back from you Naruto-sama~!" Naruto's smile turned to a full laugh when Ravel shouted out to him from the kitchen. Her attitude hadn't changed at all, but instead of feeling annoyed by it, it was kind of cute now, especially when she called herself a lady.
"Sure thing, Ravel-chan!"
Naruto breathed in deeply when he stepped outside his mansion, nothing was better than the fresh air of early morning. After doing some stretches, he quickly found a quiet spot inside his garden and sat down. He needed to talk with his so- called friends; after all, they would always follow him wherever he went, fighting side by side with him no matter what enemy he was facing.
Naruto sat down on the ground and closed his eyes, his consciousness slowly dripped away and into his mindscape.
The blond haired devil opened his eyes to see the familiar surroundings around him, it was a massive forest and the ground was covered in green grass, everything was so peaceful here and Naruto didn't have to use his sage technique to feel the nature. About a year ago, in a spar with Gabriel, she had accidentally put a spear through his stomach, and it hurt like hell before the Seraph Angel could pull it out and dispel it. The spear had affected him so much that he lost conscious soon after because of the pain. When he thought he had woken up, he was inside a place that looked like nothingness, completely white while the ground was covered in water and it looked like he was standing on the water's surface. Soon after, he saw that he was surrounded by nine massive beasts that called themselves Bijuu, with tails numbering from one to nine, each beast resembled an animal in the human world, or even a cross species like the eight-tailed ox-topus.
But the most surprising beast was Kurama, a Kyuubi. As far as he knew, the only two Kyuubi alive were Yasaka, the leader of the Youkai Faction in Kyoto and her daughter Kunou, which had yet to mature fully and gain the tails like her mother. He never met them before, but he had heard about Yasaka's power, that she could rival a dragon king and nearly unstoppable in her territory. But the appearance of Kurama never ceased to amaze Naruto. He got along just fine with the other Bijuu, a little rough with Shukaku at first, and especially rough with Kurama, but Naruto soon found out that the giant Kyuubi was just trying keep his cool and reputation as the strongest of all, deep down inside he was a big softie. Naruto always enjoyed laughing his ass off every time he teased the fox about it.
Well, seeing that he couldn't let the Bijuu live in a place like that, he had decided to change the surroundings to the forest of the Sitri Clan, the largest forest he knew and remembered so far.
"Oi, Kurama, you here?" Knowing the other Bijuu, they're probably around somewhere, spending their time alone. Those nine were the only thing that connected him to his mysterious past. Naruto had soon found out that everything he knew about himself before he met Rias was fake, that someone had put fake memories inside of his mind. For what, Naruto never knew, and whenever he tried to ask Kurama or another beast about it, they always changed the topic or challenged each other again.
As expected, he heard a large thundering sound behind him and turned before bringing his hand up to shield himself from the winds and dirt flying everywhere when the orange Kyuubi landed on the ground after a massive jump.
"Naruto," The fox smirked, showing its massive fangs to him. "Fancy seeing you here, I thought you were enjoying your time with those big breasted devils that surround you."
"Shut it, fox!" Naruto screamed out and pointed his hand to the fox, while Kurama was roaring in laughter. "Again, Kurama, Rias-chan is my childhood friend and we had been sleeping with each other for years before I left, so she basically feels comfortable with me that's all."
"Oh, you mean the crimson hair chick that you have a massive crush on since the first time you met her a long time ago?" Kurama said with a grinned.
"You…" Naruto cursed out, but huffed and turned his head away with a blush, the orange Kyuubi was laughing so hard that the ground was actually shaking. Naruto always wondered why Kurama knew everything he was thinking. He actually had a deep crush for his childhood friend, but was too afraid to admit his feelings for her. He was just a pawn of her brother's peerage, and Rias was a noble lady from one of the greatest clans in the Underworld, there were no way that she would like someone like him like that, despite their long-standing close friendship.
He actually planned to confess to her after he became a high-class devil to suit her standard and status, but that would be a really long time in the future. And if she had feelings for another, then Naruto would gladly support her. After all, he always wanted her to be happy.
"Okay, stop laughing Kurama, I'm here to ask you a favor!" Naruto said seriously, making the fox stop laughing and stand on all fours while looking at him with an eyebrow rose, or at least it looked like that.
"What is it?" Kurama asked curiously.
"Well, I actually wanted to know a few small details about my past!" Naruto said to the Kyuubi, "You know, living without even knowing who I am, or who my parents are. Why do I have these powers, why do I have nine massive beasts inside my body? I wanted to know about it, you could leave everything else out if you want to, but at least let me know a few things about what happened before I met Rias!"
"Are you sure, Naruto?" The Kyuubi asked seriously. "You know, your past was something that all of us, even that psycho Shukaku wanted you to forget. So that you could live the happy life you current do."
"I know Kurama!" Naruto nodded his head "It's just that I wanted to know about me, that's all… just a few memories won't hurt!" Naruto grinned and held out his fist.
"Fine, but I will chose a happy memory for you, but… it will leave you with a lot of questions later. If you really want to know everything, come to me when you're ready and give me the right reason, got it?" Naruto nodded his head, making the fox grin and touch his own fist to Naruto's. Instantly, memories got transferred into Naruto's mind, his eyes widening in shock when he saw them.
Grayfia looked around the kitchen with a frown on her face. Somehow, Rias and Akeno had woken up sooner than she got used to over the years serving them at the castle. When Grayfia finished cleaning the basement of the mansion, she came into the kitchen to prepare Naruto's breakfast, hoping that it would make him happy like always. She actually learned some more cooking techniques on a human TV show, and in the magazines she bought when she went out to buy some supplies for the kitchen when she finished all the house work and had nothing left to do.
But when she stepped into the kitchen, Rias and Akeno were preparing everything on the table while throwing heated glares at each other. Ravel was working on her chocolate cake, which Naruto found to be one of the best food besides his ramen, while humming a soft tune to herself. Grayfia readied to interfere and kick them out before they could finish the breakfast for two reasons: The first reason was it would be a hard punch to Grayfia's pride as a maid of this mansion, she was supposed to be the one doing all the hard work here. Not the residents, especially the high-class ladies, such as Rias or Ravel. And the second reason, it was the reason that she held close to her chest, she was supposed to be the one that prepared everything for Naruto, making him as comfortable as possible. As his personal maid, it was her duty to make him feel relaxed and keep his house as perfect as possible while preparing everything for him with perfection. Those three were preventing her from doing her job, and it actually pissed her off. But, with perfect control of her emotions, she had kept herself as calm as possible.
But when she had been given an order by Rias, she couldn't do anything but obey, and left the kitchen staying outside until everyone finished their preparations.
So, with garden tools in hand, the silver hair maid decided to take care of the mansion's garden. Naruto had trusted her to take care of his mansion, and the garden was no exception. Doing some gardening was one of the things that she always enjoyed anyway. Grayfia stepped out of the house and the feeling of Naruto's magical signature instantly hit her, a small but beautiful smile appeared on her face when Grayifa realized she was going to spend some alone time with Naruto, away from all the girls that were working non-stop in the kitchen. Grayfia looked at her clothes and tried to find anything that would make her imperfect in Naruto's eyes, even fixed the headband on top of her head nearly ten times before taking a deep breath and walking into the garden.
She quickly located Naruto inside the massive garden of the Uzumaki Mansion, he was sitting on the ground with his eyes closed, and his hands folded on his lap, looking like he was thinking about something. The silver haired maid couldn't help but get lost in Naruto's peaceful state. Yet, as much as she wanted to sit down and stare at Naruto like this, she also wanted to talk with him, and have some alone time with the youngest member of Sirzechs Lucifer's peerage.
Grayfia slowly brought out her hand, but before she could touch him, her eyes widened when she saw a tear rolling down Naruto's cheek and fall to the ground. She didn't know what happened to him, she had never seen Naruto cry before. He was someone who always acted so strong and full of happiness, always wearing a smile on his face.
"Naruto-sama…" Grayfia hesitated a little, but she lightly touched Naruto shoulder, the blond slowly opened his electric blue eyes and looked at his personal maid in surprise.
"G-Grayfia-nee, what are you doing here?" Naruto asked, his head still hurt a little from the absorbing the memories of his past life with the help of Kurama. Questions after questions appeared inside his mind. Kurama had been right about the memories leaving him confused.
"I was going to do some gardening here." She answered calmly, "And what about you Naruto-sama, what are you doing here so early in the morning? I thought you were at the training basement." It was the truth, of all the rooms in the basement, Grayfia didn't clean up the training room because she thought Naruto was there training like he had been yesterday.
"Well, just sitting here thinking I guess!" Naruto scratched the back of his head with a grin, but his face slowly drooped and Naruto let out a heavy sigh. His face looking so sad made Grayfia feel her throat going dry.
"Naruto-sama, you know that you can tell me anything, maybe I could help you." Grayfia said, a small smile appeared on her face, this time, she would be the one to be strong for him, no matter what problems he was facing. "I'm your personal maid after all!"
Naruto looked at Grayfia in surprise, he knew that Grayfia claimed herself as his personal maid, but he couldn't help but find another meaning in the reason she wanted to help him in the first place. Naruto always know that she was a caring woman despite her strict personality, but sometimes, Naruto felt that Grayfia had gone too far in her duty at his personal maid. When Grayfia still served as Sirzechs' maid, she was never this forward. Yes, maybe she hit him in the face or punched him in his stomach each time Sirzechs acted childish, but she never rushed into something like this, or drowned herself into work like this. She even denied his clones' offer to help. It's looked like she was trying to prove something, or impress him…
Naruto quickly pushed that thought away, maybe it just because there were no other maid besides herself at his mansion, he just wished he could find some way to help her, and made her accept the fact that she was a resident at the Uzumaki mansion, not his personal maid.
"Well, Grayfia-nee… it's about my past." Naruto said, Grayfia's eyes suddenly wide in shock. "There's something I found out during the two years I lived in heaven… That my memories of the past I was living before I met Rias-chan were all fake, all of them!" He stood up from the ground, which Grayfia quickly followed, even though she was still trying to get out of her shocked state.
As far as she knew, she had personally wiped the fake memories out of his mind with Macgregor before bringing the brain damaged boy to the most advanced hospital of the Sitri Clan to check on him. But if what Naruto told them was true, then Naruto's past was mysterious and the matter had became more complicated than before. She couldn't believe that there were still a lot of fake memories inside of Naruto's mind. She would have to report this to Sirzechs later.
"You know Grayfia-nee…" Naruto said with a smile while looking up at the sky. "When Michael-san asked me what training I had to go through to archive these powers," Naruto summoned his tri-pronged kunai and gripped it tightly in his hand, "I said, it was the power that I born with, the power that I achieved even before I could remember. But later, when I thought about it, I had found out that I was born human, not the devil that I thought I was." He turned around and looked at Grayfia, giving her the kunai in his hand which Grayfia gently took. "This, Grayfia-nee, wasn't a sacred gear, I had thought if I was human, this would be my sacred gear. But I was wrong… I don't know what happened to me Grayfia-nee, but I'm sure that my past was something neither of us want to experience."
"Naruto-sama…"
"All these powers," He created a Rasengan in his other palm, "there is a reason that I have these powers… I don't know why, but with this kind of power inside me, I really don't want to think about what happened to make me have to learn these things." He said seriously before let the Rasengan in his palm disappeared.
"Naruto-sama, no matter what the reasons are, I'm sure that these powers of yours exist for good reason, just like you." She smiled gently, her beautiful silver eyes shone with gentleness and caring.
"Thank you, Grayfia-nee!" He looked at her for a moment before smiling brightly to the silver haired maid, making her cheeks redden a little, "I thought that you were a really strict Onee-sama who would scold me or hit me on the head for thinking something like that, but I guess I was wrong!" He teased her, but quickly rejected it when Grayfia appeared right next to him and pinched his cheek, hard.
"I won't stand the joke Naruto-sama!" Grayfia said sternly before releasing him, she brought the kunai out and returned it to Naruto "This is yours, Naruto-sama."
"What are you saying Grayfia-nee?" Naruto asked with a frown on his face "It's yours now!"
"But…"
"Well, I was planning on giving the girls something that have the same marking like this kunai too, so that I could teleport myself to wherever they are." He smiled "but you Grayfia-nee, I hardly believe that something out there could endanger you, so you won't need the alarm mark, just keep it and I can come to you whenever I want!"
Immediately Naruto took a stepped back with shock on his face when Grayfia knelt down to the ground and lowered her head down so her forehead was actually touching the ground.
"Thank you Naruto-sama!" Grayfia said, her voice was full of passion, so different from her normal calm and collected tone. "Thank you, thank you!" She nearly shouted. She just received the same thing as what he gave Rias years ago, even though it wasn't special like Rias's bracelet, nor did it have the ability to call for him whenever she wanted to, but Grayfia couldn't help but feel extremely happy.
"Hey, what are you doing Grayfia-nee, please stand up!" Naruto putting his arms around her shoulders and help Grayfia stand up while dusting the silver haired maid, even the dirt covered forehead "Jeez, never though you would be so happy about it."
"Thank you, Naruto-sama!" she nodded her head before putting the Kunai in her pocket, Grayfia decided that she should study how the mark worked, so she could move it to something more easy to carry around. She didn't want to trouble Naruto, so Grayfia decided to do it herself.
Naruto nodded his head and returned to the mansion, expecting some good meals from the girls, maybe some extra bowls of ramen, the conversation with Grayfia had helped him clear out his mind a bit, but he still needed to do some research about his memories later.
Rias, hugging Naruto's right arm, along with everyone in her club, were working along side each other to Issei's and Asia's house just like she had planned yesterday. The crimson haired heiress couldn't help but glare at Akeno, who was hugging Naruto's left arm and chatting with him too excitedly for her liking.
There was something wrong with Grayfia this morning, sure her attitude was just like always: strict, calm to the point of being nearly cold, and always speaking with a firm and stern tone. But Rias clearly saw through her mask, she didn't know why, maybe it was woman's instinct… Anyway, Grayfia was extremely happy this morning, she also heard a small tune coming from behind her whenever everyone turned around, and it was really familiar, it's just Rias never heard Grayfia humming like that before. The crimson haired girl was definitely sure that the source of her happiness had Naruto's name written all over it. Rias hoped that it didn't involve any sensual activities.
They arrived at the Hyoudou Residence, much to Issei's parents' and Asia's delight and Issei quickly covered his head in embarrassment. The visit at Hyoudou Residence was uneventful, until Kiba picked the photo album up with a frown on his face, Naruto was drinking tea with Issei's dad parents Rias when he heard Kiba say-
"This is a Holy Sword"
"I got this!" Naruto yelled to Rias and ran as fast as possible, he jumped up and caught the baseball in his gloved hand. It was no big deal really, but the fact that he had jumped over twenty feet into the air made Issei's and Asia's mouths drop in shock.
Naruto landed lightly on the ground and threw the ball back to Rias, she was the one that hit the ball with so much force behind it, knowing his power, she definitely wouldn't hold back and made him work non-stop in retaliation for what happened that morning. Sure, Rias was acting like her usual self but his power to sense emotion let him know that she was really pissed. Akeno's emotions were pretty normal, or as normal as they could be. Koneko was pretty blank. Asia's emotion weren't a surprise, she was almost invariably happy. And Issei… well, like usual, especially when the attractive and beautiful Onee-sama were wearing gym clothes in front of him, doing the activities that made their assets bounce in a very sensual way.
But, Rias wasn't the only one that had disturbing emotions.
Kiba Yuuto, Rias' Knight, since he saw that Holy Sword from the picture Issei took with his childhood friend, his emotions had been churning. Kiba was always calm, happy and collected. Naruto felt worried for Kiba, most of his mind was filled with hatred now. Naruto looked at him and made a mental note to ask Rias what happened with Kiba and those Holy Swords. The knight even didn't notice when Rias hit the ball over to him, letting the ball hit the top of his head without even acknowledging it at all.
Naruto sat down next to Rias, who was reading while letting everyone have a break before continuing their training. He picked up a bottle of water and drank it, but the crimson haired girl still didn't acknowledge her childhood friend. Talk about an angry Rias, he was the one knew exactly what it felt like when she directed her anger at someone.
"Well…?" Rias suddenly asked without taking her eyes off the book.
"Well?" he repeated, a confused look on his face.
"What happened between you and Grayfia?" Rias asked, she turned her head to face Naruto, her face was blank with half lifted eyes "She was extra happy this morning and you two had been in the garden together… what happened?"
"Nothing, really!" Naruto grinned while scratching the back of his head. He decided not to tell Rias about what happened, about his memories. She was the last person he wanted to worry just because some strange things happened in his past "Oh, I gave her one of my Kunai by the way!"
"WHAT?" She stood up with her hands on her hips, her upper body bent down so her face was right in front of his. "Are you telling me that you gave her the same thing you gave me?" Rias pointed to the crimson bracelet on her wrist. She had thought that the bracelet was a special connection between them, but this morning Grayfia just received the same thing as her. What the hell!
"Hey, no need to shout like that!" Naruto smile nervously "It's just the normal tri-prongs kunai, nothing special about it you know… it wasn't a bracelet like this." he grinned and channeled some of his magical energy into his own bracelet, unaware about the effect in had on the crimson haired girl. Rias's face immediately reddened and her breathing became really harsh, Rias stood up and rubbed her legs together, earning a confused look from Naruto, "Hey Rias-chan, what happened to you!" He also stood up and put his forehead against hers, feeling her temperature "Hm, you're sick or something… your temperature's a bit high."
Rias's face immediately matched her hair, the heiress forcefully shoving Naruto away from her, too afraid that his sensitive nose would smell her arousal, but luck wasn't on her side this time, and Naruto felt onto her bag, knocking everything she had inside to the ground.
"Sorry, sorry!" Naruto shook his head and smiled when Rias lowered her head and quickly picked up her belongings with Naruto's help.
"No need to worry Rias-chan. You should care about your health more!" He picked up a book and looked at it, a surprised expression appearing on his face when he read the title "'How to make him fall in love in simple ways' Wow, I didn't know that you're into these kind of books Rias-chan!" Naruto grinned when he put the Love Manual back into Rias' bag. The color of Rias's face had matched her hair already.
Suddenly, Rias screamed out when Naruto handed her the bag.
"I DON'T LIKE ANYONE, IT'S JUST MY HOBBY TO READ THESE KINDS OF THINGS AT SCHOOL! THAT'S ALL! PLEASE DON'T MISUNDERSTAND!" Rias screamed out without stopping, thinking Naruto thought she had feelings for someone else. And that was the last thing she wanted Naruto to think about her.
"Jeez, don't worry Rias-chan!" Naruto held out his hand to defend himself while looking at her with a nervous smile "I'm not thinking about it really, I'm just surprised that's all!" There was something really wrong with Rias these days, maybe it was because the ball tournament was coming up, so her stress was building up lately. He knew that she was really serious, no matter what competition she was in.
Maybe he should reward, win or not her after the tournament ends.
BANG! BANG!
The sound of the start of the ball tournament echoed in the sky. Naruto looked up and could see a few dark clouds were approaching, from the weather broadcast; it was going to rain in the evening. He just hoped that it wouldn't rain until the tournament was finished, or else Rias would scream about losing the chance to beat Sona and her peerage.
[Tsukmoto-kun of the "Manga research club", Hashioka-sensei is calling you. Please come to the staff room immediately.]
The PA speakers, which are placed throughout the school grounds, were making announcements endlessly. All of the club members got changed into the PE uniform and gathered at one place. They were resting up till the start of the matches. But the club matches were at the end. First of all, there were the class matches. Naruto's class was going to compete in football, but Naruto decided to not participate, his strength was far beyond that of a normal human and could knock the goal keeper out cold with just a single kick. Issei and Asia had to participate in their class match, which was baseball. The practice they did after school wasn't in vain. After that there was a match amongst genders. Then after lunch the club matches started.
Issei did some light exercises as a warm up. Asia was stretching with the help of Akeno. Koneko was sitting on the plastic mattress on the ground reading the rule book for ball games. Kiba…was still thinking about something, the boy had been spacing out for entire days, staring at the sky. Rias went to check the category sports for the club matches. Naruto was chatting with a few fan girls that wanted to talk with and have a good look at him…. . After ten minutes, Rias came back with while smiling fearlessly.
"We have won this match already." She said
"Buchou, so what is the sports we are playing then?" Akeno asked
"Dodgeball!"
Issei suddenly shuddered; Naruto chuckled seeing the pervert boy whimpering like that, this game was going to be really good.
But first, he needed to help Rias defeated Sona and Saji in tennis.
Naruto quickly changed into something more comfortable while wearing the "Go! Occult Research Club" headband on his forehead. The feeling of something on his forehead really brought back memories, just a few days ago Kurama had given him the same memories about headband.
"You ready Rias-chan?" Naruto asked with a smile while fingering the racket in his palm. Rias was wearing a mini-skirt for this game and was also wearing the same headband like him, her haired had been pulled into a high pony tail.
"Let's go Naruto-kun!" Rias nodded her head and both of them went out to the tennis court. The students watching cheered, this was the match they was waiting for all day.
Naruto grinned when the game began with Rias serving the ball, of course, straight at Sona, which the heiress of Sitri Clan hit back with a confident smirk on her face. Naruto only got to know Sona through their short meeting, but he could tell that she was nothing like her sister Serafall, quite the opposite in fact. The students, especially the boys were cheering for Rias and Sona so loud that he barely heard Akeno cheering for him or Koneko muttering encouragements while waving a flag with their club name and a Kyuubi behind it. Asia was also cheering, but for both sides. Issei was drooling at the sight of Rias's and Sona's panties flashing under their skirt whenever they moved to much.
Naruto saw the ball was headed straight at him and smiled, maybe he should get the first point for them. Grinning a little when he saw the ball was pretty easy, he swung the racket in his hand to the ball, sending it with such speed that both Sona and Saiji couldn't see anything before they heard the sound of the ball smacking the court before it made another bounce outside of the field.
"15-0" The announcer announced loudly, making the students shout in excitement. Especially the females students, cheering out loudly while shouting Naruto's name.
The game continued with the two rivals keeping the ball between them moving at a rapid pace, even using a little magic behind their attacks, which made Naruto sweat-drop. Naruto actually felt kind of challenged dodging the ball with magic like this, but Sona knew she couldn't hit the normal ball at Naruto without the help of magic. His strength was far too great for both her and Saji, a single hit could make her hand hurt like hell and couldn't hold the racket anymore. She had increased the strength, the speed and even changed the wind, everything to make Naruto not hit the ball, and she had succeeded a few times. Rias also send a few magic balls at her, so it was the fair game. Relatively.
After awhile Rias and Sona had been at it so long, that both of their rackets broke and they both got first place. Well, of course, a normal racket would break if they do an intense rally like that. Everyone had decided it was a tie, but Rias wanted to win as all costs, so the participants turned to the spectators to ask who the winner was. Sona and Saji had a lot of votes, but Occult Research Club still won in the end because Naruto had more votes than the others combined.
"Bloo…bloomers."
Issei was shocked after seeing what Asia was wearing. It was not the school's PE uniform shorts but bloomers! Before the start of the club matches, Asia suddenly disappeared, and when he thought about it, she came back wearing them.
"Hm, what's wrong, Issei-kun?" Naruto turned his head to Asia, then back to the pervert boy standing next to him.
"Senpai, can you see it?" Issei turned to Naruto with tear-filled eyes "Oooo…her white legs…her thighs…..! Man! She has nice legs like always!"
"Oh, ah, okay!" the blond sweated dropped, this boy was a true pervert, Naruto sometimes wondered what the special things that the former nun saw in him that made her fall so badly for him like this.
[Members of the occult research club and the baseball club. Please gather at the gym.]
"It's time, let's go everyone!" Rias said and all of them quickly followed their leaders.
Well, everything actually turned out horribly for Issei. The members of the baseball club all aimed the balls at him and tried to eliminate him in the most painful ways possible. And everyone knew exactly why.
Rias Gremory, one of the "Two Great Onee-sama", the most popular school idol. Couldn't aim for her, especially when Naruto Uzumaki was standing near.
Akeno, one of the "Two Great Onee-sama", the second most popular school idol, can't aim for her.
Asia, the Angel and the number one beautiful girl of the second year, And also a Blondie! Can't aim for her.
Koneko, A loli-loli girl who was their school mascot. You'd feel bad if you hit her.
Kiba. Enemy of every male student in the school, but the girls will hate you if you hit him. Can't aim for him.
Naruto, the most dangerous enemy of the male students, but absolutely do not aim at him, because with his skills he could easily catch the ball and send you to the ground with his strength. Not only that, Rias-sama and Akeno-sama and all the femal students would hate you if you attack him and accidentally get a lucky shot that would eliminate him.
And lastly, Issei Hyoudou, the pervert, everyone thought "I don't understand why that guy belongs to the occult research club". It's not a problem if you hit him. No, you have to hit him instead. Damn it. Die. Aim every ball at him! Head shot! Die, die you wild beast!
Well, that's how it went.
"Kill Iseeeeee!"
"Asia-chaaaaaaaaan! Bloomer's are the best! Iseeeeeee, die!"
"Please! Take Hyoudou down! For Rias-oneesama's sake! For Akeno-oneesama's sake! And especially for Naruto-sama's sake!"
"You have to bring Asia-san back to the good side!"
"Die! Right! No, throw head on!"
"You wouldn't have gotten killed if you didn't come out!"
Naruto actually felt bad for the boy so he usually caught the ball in his hand and sent it back to the baseball club, but sometimes he let Issei have a taste of what it felt like to be a pervert boy that was hated by everyone.
"Shit! I don' care whether I get hated! You damn handsome piece of shit!"
A guy had so much hatred towards handsome guys that he aimed for Kiba instead of Issei. Naruto's eyes went wide when he saw Kiba was still spacing out, and immediately ran as fast as he could to help him, but Issei, being the one who was closer to Kiba than him, had jumped into action first and used his body to block the ball.
"What are you doing standing around!?"
SMACK!
Naruto winced and felt bad for Issei. He got a direct hit between his legs, right where his family jewels were located. Rias caught the ball in her hand and sent Koneko to drag the brunette out of the battlefield so Asia could heal him somewhere.
In the end, it was a slaughter for the baseball club. Naruto, Rias and Akeno quickly took out every single one of them without breaking a sweat, Koneko had returned shortly after that and help them defeated the rest.
At the end of the day, Occult Research Club was in the lead in every sport they participant in.
SLAP!
There was a bitter sound which echoed along with the sound of the rain. Rias just slapped someone. It was Kiba.
Naruto was standing near them, his back leaned to the wall of a building with a serious look on his face, his shining blue eyes were looking directly at the King and her Knight.
"How is it? Did that wake you up?"
Rias was quite angry. For the ball tournament the occult research club, got the first place. Even Issei and Asia had returned to help with the rest. But there was one person who didn't cooperate and it was Kiba. He did contribute a couple of times but he was doing nothing most of the time. Rias got angry at him a couple of times during the match but he didn't seem to care at all. Even if he got slapped, Kiba still didn't make any expression nor did he talk.
"Are you done now? The ball tournament has finished as well. We won't be practicing anymore so can I take a rest until its night time? I'm a bit tired so I will take a break from the usual club activities. I'm sorry for my behavior today. Seems like I don't feel well today." Kiba said quietly and walked away in the rain. Issei quickly followed the Knight and Rias would have to, if not for Naruto appearing behind her and putting a hand on her shoulder, stopping her.
"Don't Rias-chan… let Issei take care of this matter." He said slowly "They are both your servants, and comrades when in battle. And they are both men, I think letting Issei do this would be best."
Rias looked at Naruto and nodded her head, the two of them quickly gathered their belonging and returned to their house.
"Rias-chan, what happened between Kiba and the Holy Swords?"
Rias looked at Naruto surprise, but then her eyes returned to normal but held the sadness behind it. Sooner or later, she knew he would ask her about this, Rias had seen how Naruto looked at Kiba with the worried looks lately.
"Naruto-kun, the truth is…"
Naruto kicked the door of the basement open and stepped into it, putting up a spell to prevent anyone that wanted to eavesdrop on him. The blond haired boy was really angry right now, the story Rias just told him… Naruto couldn't believe that had been done by a human being. No wonder why Kiba held so much hatred for it.
Channeling his energy into the bracelet, but not to Rias, to another one he trusted. The crimson bracelet slowly changed its shape, crimson turned white and it elongated.
"Naruto-sama?"
A small and gentle voice came from in front of him together with a small light orb. The orb began to spin widely before expanding, spreading out everywhere inside the basement and slowly taking the shape of a beautiful blonde with ten white wings flaring out of her back.
Gabriel looked around with surprise on her face before looking at the white bracelet on her wrist. Her eyes widened, she remembered what Naruto had told her when he gave her this bracelet before returning to the Underworld.
"Gabriel-chan, long time no see!" Naruto smiled, no matter how much time he spent with Gabriel in Heaven, her beauty always amazed him. Even though this was just her hologram, a special magic he had put inside the white bracelet for whenever he wanted to talk with her, the anger inside him quickly disappeared just by her appearance.
"Naruto-sama!" Gabriel bowed her head to Naruto, making the blond boy chuckle, she was too respectful for his liking, her status was higher than his after all. "I hope you're doing well."
"Of course Gabriel-chan." his expression immediately changed, making the most beautiful angel's eyes turned wide in surprise. "We'll play twenty questions later… right now, I want to ask you something."
"Anything you want, Naruto-sama!" Gabriel nodded her head, something was really wrong with Naruto and she knew it, the blonde angel just hoped it was nothing involved the Angels. Because of help from Naruto, the Angels had begun to warm up to Devils and rarely attacked them nowadays.
"The Excalibur-Project… what do you know about it?"
