The Worst One's
Chapter 31
On a cold, silent night, someone was walking out of a luxurious mansion with slow steps, Namikaze Naruto. A handsome face with a golden blonde mane that looks messy with two sideburns that frame his handsome face, not to forget Iris shappire beautiful hers staring flat ahead, the, Naruto is currently wearing his adventurer outfit a robe that covers his entire body from neck to toe in a dull white color, two katanas hanging safely on his waist and a suit full of armor made of metal hidden under the cloak.
Tonight... Naruto will go to find a Talisman that will break the Magic curse that is currently threatening the life of his father, [Arcux Arletis]. Magic the worst and cruelest curse ever found in the British... Naruto's current goal is Castil drifting [Avantheim], in the Castle there is a creature that can save the life of his father, the creature that only became a legend and myth in the world was now the key to save his father... Manticore.
Manticore Creature that comes from Persian legend, Beings and likes to eat this human, if he remembers the form of Manticore in the previous Fantasy Game in the world, then surely the creature has the form of a huge monster with a pair of wings that can make it fly, then its tail that has deadly poison, not to mention teeth and claws as sharp as a sword that is ready to tear it... What a troublesome combination, more troublesome than the Chimera that Naruto had fought in the ancient city of Ligodorian.
Naruto, who was walking towards the gate, suddenly stopped when his iris shappie caught two silhouettes standing in front of the gate, and the two silhouettes were slowly visible thanks to the moonlight that illuminated them, and Naruto can see two people who now hold the position as the leader of the special Unit he formed.
"Yuri Alpha, Shikamaru Nara..."
Naruto muttered coldly to see the two people in front of him, Yuri who was still wearing her maid outfit put up her glasses, while Shikamaru was still wearing his [Anbu] outfit while his right hand was holding the crow mask that became his identity, Shikamaru's dark iris stared lazily at Naruto staring at the two of them flatly.
"You two, what are you doing here?."
A cold flat voice piercing the eardrum shot out from the Heiress Clan Namikaze's mouth next, Yuri was silent before she stared at Naruto with a serious look.
"I'm sorry, if I'm presumptuous but shouldn't we say that sentence, Naruto-sama."
Naruto fell silent before his shappire iris flashed dangerously, "this has nothing to do with you guys, so don't block my path." naruto said flatly as he stepped past Yuri and Shikamaru who wore an indecipherable expression. Naruto, who was just about to pass them, stopped when he felt a finger sticking to his neck and Wakizashi who was ready to snore Naruto's neck at any moment.
"I'm sorry, Naruto-sama. But we can't let you go without telling you where, Naruto-sama is going."
Yuri said coldly as she prepared to release the [Shigan] that would instantly result in death if done at the point where her index finger pressed down, which was, while Shikamaru he only glanced at Naruto who bowed his head until his expression could not be read... Shikamaru stared lazily at Naruto before his lazy iris widened when he saw Naruto grinning thinly.
Duk!
Duk!
Shikamaru grimaced as he felt a strong blow on his nape, Shikamaru felt his consciousness drifting away but before he completely disappeared he glanced at Naruto who was staring at him with a flat face, the black iris widened perfectly when it saw there were two other Naruto next to Naruto... Naruto is 3!?...
Bruk!
Bruk!
Naruto stared at the two fainting men in front of him, while the two Naruto next to him slowly became transparent and entered into Naruto's body... Iris shappire Naruto stared at the two unit leaders in particular flatly before he turned around and left the two special unit leaders muttering softly.
"I'm sorry, but it's personal..."
The murmur was erased by the sound of the night wind blowing as Naruto walked and disappeared into the darkness of the night.
In the darkness of the night, Naruto walked with slow steps, the sound of an owl accompanying each of Naruto's steps, the silence breaking as a voice echoed through his head.
'Master, why don't you tell them your purpose?, won't the more people the better?, the more chance Master has of defeating, the Celestial Manticore will be even greater.'
Cute, flat voice echoed in the head full of the blond mane, Naruto was silent at Ophis' words, he jumped over the roots of a large tree that blocked the path and stared ahead with a flat look.
"Ophis, what you said is true, my chance of being able to defeat, the Manticore is indeed getting bigger but I won't be able to focus on fighting while protecting others, I better solve my own problems without anyone else's interference..."
Naruto flatly said, Ophis was speechless at the words of her Master, inexplicably Ophis felt if that was not the reason her Master refused to invite others, but Ophis also felt that if it was not a wise choice to ask her further... Jeanne who was in a separate dimension with Ophis could only put on a slick smile.
'The reason why the Master didn't take others in his business is not that, the real reason is that he didn't want anyone to be victimized because of his problem...'
Jeanne hugged her arm as she closed her eyes and smiled gently, a smile as beautiful as Lily blossomed on her pretty face, and a very gentle voice rang out from her.
"Master, you're too good..."
- Other Place
Meanwhile, Alvarez Palace, King Alvarez is currently staring at a man with a black-blank short-blind outline prostrating himself in front of the king, King Alvarez looked at the man with a hard-to-guess look.
"Uchiha Shisui, it seems that you were successfully repulsed from your mission huh..."
"I'm sorry, because I can't do the job you've been given well, Heika."
"Yes, it's fine that I forbid you to take all your power out and just give you an observation mission, but I'm sure you've already got the information I want to hear, so, How?."
The king said in a stern tone that kept Shisui silent for a while before he took out a parchment and handed it to the front where quickly someone with a plain mask appeared and took the parchment and handed it to him the king.
The king opened the parchment and read it intensely, the king's expression slowly changed from flat to surprised before the shocked face disappeared and the king's gaze was directed at Shisui who was still prostrating there.
"Shishi... Are your observations correct?."
"Ha'i!, I dare not lie, Heika."
Shisui said firmly, King Alvarez was silent for a while before he stung the parchment and placed it next to him.
"Thank you, Shisui. You can go back to duty."
"Then I resign, Heika."
Shisui at high speed disappeared from his place leaving the silent king staring at Shisui's place before he commented a faint smile.
"Namikazes Naruto... You're getting me interested, at such a young age he could make a big change for the Namikaze Clan..."
The king glanced at the parchment beside him and the smile on his face grew.
"alright. I've decided."
.

Naruto, the young man who is currently considered a genius youth for his Clan is now walking on the footpath separating the two expanses of meadows that are pampering the eyes.
Kryuuk~
A signal rang from the belly of the genius young man, Naruto cursed himself because he forgot to bring supplies, luckily he had some money left to eat for a few days so he didn't have to worry about hunger anymore, but the problem was... He could not buy food because there was no food stall around here just a meadow so vast!.
Kryuuk~
"Ughs... Hungry."
Naruto touched his raging stomach, Naruto felt his stomach start to hurt... This is serious if not immediately filled then he can get stomach acid disease. Naruto opened the [Dimension Space: Gate] and pulled out a bag full of olives, Naruto staring at the fruit...
"Ughs... This is all that's left of the grocery purchase a few days ago, ugh... There's no other choice."
Naruto opened the bag and took out an olive and put it in his mouth, Naruto fell silent when the olives he ate somehow pulled out the Oil that soaked his mouth... And it makes me thirsty!. Naruto smears an olive in his mouth.
"Ugh, this fruit is old... Damn, this fruit I can only use to make oil... Ugh, fuck... My stomach's getting hungry."
Naruto sighed and reinserted the sac containing the old olives into the [Dimension Space: Gate]. Naruto who was walking limp suddenly turned his head back and from a distance he saw a horse carriage moving quickly towards him, Naruto narrowed his eyes looking at the horse carriage, I don't know why he looked like he'd seen that horse carriage... But where?.
'Master, did Master forget?. didn't the carriage belong to Hyuga noble who had visited the Master's place?.'
Naruto was silent at Ophis's words before her irises were perfectly rounded as her brain circuitry captured the core of Ophis's words... Hyuga who had visited her Clan there was only one!, and that was Heiress Clan Hyuga who was her former fiance!, with the catalain, Hyuga Hinata!.
Naruto quickly covered his face with a cloth that he had once worn to cover his face while searching for the ancient city of Ligodorian, after which Naruto finished turning his face away when the horse carriage passed him, Naruto heaved a sigh of relief seeing the horse carriage continue to walk past him... But it did not last long because the horse carriage stopped not far from Naruto's position.
"Hey... You're there!."
Naruto who was grateful in his mind turned his gaze forward and saw a beautiful woman with a dark blue face was waving towards him, The beautiful woman is Naruto's former fiance, Hyuga Hinata.
Naruto stared silently at Hinata before he looked right and left trying to convince her that Hinata was not waving at him, but he did not find anyone... Naruto stared at Hinata with his fingers pointing at himself, as if saying "you called me?.". Hinata nodded.
"Yes, you, come here and I'll give you a ride to the city ahead."
The soft voice knocked on Naruto's eardrum which immediately put on a face like a person who was struck by a disaster behind the cover...
'Oh shit...'
.
.
.
Naruto had no idea last night what nightmares he had until he had to engage in a dangerous situation like this, Naruto is currently sitting on a soft and comfortable cushion while his iris shappire that looks between the blemishes of his face cover looks towards Hyuga Hinata who is putting on a friendly face, Naruto stared at Hinata for a moment before he lowered his head slightly... Actually Naruto does not want to lower his head on anyone but he does this to see if Hinata recognizes him or not.
"I'm sorry if I'm being rude to have soiled your fancy car with this dirty me, once again forgive me, Hyuga-sama"
"Don't be too formal, we're not in a place that needs formalities, and please don't call me 'Hyuga-sama', it's like you're talking to the entire Hyuga Clan, ah!, he said!, how can I forget, we haven't met, introduce my name is Hyuga Hinata."
Naruto was silent before he looked at Hinata who was wearing a thin smile that added to the beauty of a Hyuga Hinata, Naruto nodded slowly, it seems that this arrogant woman does not know him, then good!.
"Haruto, just Haruto."
Naruto said quietly, Naruto re-introduced his fake name that he had used when he accidentally helped Gabriel, the woman Naruto hated the most when he was dropped by the sand some time ago. Hinata nodded softly before she smiled faintly and looked towards Naruto who was just putting a flat look at her.
"So, Haruto-san?, do you have any business in the city [Rudret]?, you're heading there right?."
Hinata asked in a probing tone, Naruto was silent for a moment, there was no way Naruto would say 'I am looking for the Floating Castle, [Avantheim]!', just die there if Naruto said such a truth.
"I... I'm just a wanderer, Hinata-san. I just go to follow where this foot is going."
Naruto said the lie so smoothly that it looked convincing, Hinata fell silent before she smiled faintly.
"So?, wanderer huh?, surely Haruto-san has explored many places, right?, can you tell me which places Haruto-san has been to?."
Naruto fell silent and looked at Hinata who was smiling thinly, for some reason behind the smile was a hidden intention, was Hinata planning something on her?, no, no, no... It was impossible that they had just met, and also Naruto was sure that was not the reason Hinata asked him.
"Unfortunately, the place I came from is only a city and some villages in the kingdom of Alvarez, there is nothing interesting from the place I have been to, so sorry, Hinata-san."
"Is that so?, what a pity... Hey, Haruto-san. Do you know the legend about the floating castle, [Avantheim]."
Hinata said as the pearl iris without pupils looked at Naruto who widened his eyes when he heard the name [Avantheim], Naruto tried to suppress his surprise and looked at Hinata who was still wearing a thin smile.
"I think I've heard of it, the Legend about the Castle, why did Hinata-san ask me that?."
"Nothing, forget it."
Naruto fell silent before he nodded slowly and turned his gaze to the window as his brain spun to find the most logical explanation for why Hinata could know about Castil floating, [Avantheim].
After passing through the path of silence finally the luxurious horse carriage stopped in the mountain town, [Rudret]. Naruto got off the horse carriage with slow steps, Naruto stared around where he saw people passing by leisurely, Hinata smilingly looked at Haruto who was staring around.
"Then here we split up, until later, Haruto-san."
Naruto turned his head back and nodded slowly making Hinata smile and giving the coachman the order to leave immediately, Naruto stared at Hinata's departure with a flat iris, Naruto sighed and removed his face cover and saw the handsome face of a Namikaze Naruto.
"I didn't expect that I would meet my ex-fiance, and again he also seemed to have the same goal as me... [Avantheim]."
'Master what do you think Castil is looking for drifting, [Avantheim]?.'
Naruto was speechless to hear Ophis's voice echoing in his head, Naruto slowly turned around and left the place with slow steps.
"I don't know what he's looking for but I hope it's not the Manticore I'm hunting, because if he's hunting the same hunt then it's certain I'll exterminate it."
Ophis was speechless at Naruto's cold tone that was currently walking and mingling with the crowd of the townspeople, Jeanne could only smile at her Master...
'The nature of the difficult to guess, good and evil... I think Master has two of those traits, Ufufu~, which are really hard to guess.'
- change scene
Meanwhile, the Namikaze clan head residence was seen in the middle of a gripping atmosphere, all caused by a beautiful woman with a red ribbon with a violet iris staring ahead coldly.
"Yuri... Why did you let my son, Naruto. Just leave."
Namikaze Kushina, the wife of Namikaze Minato said in a blank tone and cold gaze towards the butler Yuri who bowed her head deeply did not dare to look back at Kushina.
"Sa-I've tried to stop the young master, but someone showed up and helped the young master."
"Who... Who's trying to help my son?, have you seen him, Yuri."
"Ti-No, Kushina-sama. I don't see who helped the young master because I was made to faint so quickly without even realizing it."
Kushina fell silent and stared at Yuri who was still bowing her head, Kushina let out a tired sigh and massaged her throbbing head.
"I don't believe this... Yuri, I know how strong you are, so it's impossible for you to be defeated so easily...*
"I'm really sorry, Kushina-sama... It seems I underestimated the young master too much that I managed to be defeated so easily."
"Have forgotten Naruto's business, let it go, I'm sure he'll definitely come back here... Geez, father and son alike, likes to do dangerous things."
Kushina muttered softly as she massaged her throbbing head. Kushina shifted her gaze and looked towards Yuri who was also looking at her.
"Yuri, lest anyone know about Naruto's departure or Minato's current state, I don't want any panic because this Clan has lost both of its main pillars for a while, you understand?."
"Ha'i, will I make sure no one will know about it, Kushina-sama."
"Good, I trust you with that, Yuri."
Kushina smiled with satisfaction and slowly got up and left Yuri who was still bowing her head slightly before Yuri raised her head and stared at Kushina's departure in silence, Yuri confirmed the location of her glasses.
"[Crow], you've heard that, haven't you?."
Yuri said flatly and from behind the shadow of the pillar appeared an Anbu with a crow mask that was leaning on his back against the padlock, [Crow]. The leader of the Special Unit [Anbu] looked towards the leader of the [Pleiades] fighting Maid Unit.
"Just relax, I've already deployed all my men to watch over this entire Mansion."
"Good, Crow. We both have to protect this Clan from enemies who intend to destroy it, because only this Clan is willing to accept worthless 'disposal' people like us... And Crow."
Yuri turned her head back and walked towards Crow who was still standing leaning against the wall, Yuri stared at Crow intensely.
"If one day I betray this Clan I want you..."
"... I will definitely kill you, Yuri. And if I were to betray this Clan then..."
"I'll kill you, Crow."
The two leaders fell silent and looked at each other who had made an unwritten deal before both of them smiled faintly and left the room in silence.
While it was at the westernmost part of the city [Rudret], seen Naruto staring towards a very large Goa in front of him, Goa it looks so gloomy and scary, it looks so, Naruto could feel the dark aura of Goa.
"Ophis, are you sure this is the Goa you mean?..."
'Yes, I am sure, Master. In this Goa there is a road that connects this place with the floating Castle, Avantheim.'
'Where can you be sure there's a way to Avantheim, Chibi.'
'I know it because I visited Avantheim with my father... And stop calling me 'Chibi'!.'
'Ara?, why are you angry isn't that a fact if you are... Midgets?.'
'... Jeanne, do you intend to get me into a fight?.'
'Ufufu~, why not?.'
Naruto let out a tired sigh at the sound of ridicule echoing in his head, inexplicably Ophis and Jeanne never got along with them like water and fire.
"Have you two, don't quarrel my head starts to hurt hearing you guys who keep fighting all the time..."
'Sorry Master...'
Naruto sighed before he stepped into Goa quietly, after disappearing from sight a short while later a group of people were seen walking closer to Goa, the group of no more than 6 people was led by a beautiful woman with beautiful dark blue eyes Lavender without pupils, the beautiful woman smiled to see Goa in front of her.
"All right, we're in."
"Dan, Hinata-sama!."
.
.
.
In Goa, Naruto was amazed because this place turned out to be spacious as well, Shappire Naruto iris stared around where he saw stalagmite and stalagtite are very beautiful, if Naruto could capture it on camera, it would be a great memory... Naruto laughed. Stupid himself... In this medieval world where there may be sophisticated tools such as cameras?...
Naruto stared around before a sound made Naruto alert, Naruto immediately turned back the sound with his hands firmly grasping the handle of his katana, Naruto sharpened his eyes looking back at a fairly sized stalactite stuck to the ground... Naruto stared flatly at the stalactite for a while before he flipped his body... Naruto speechless... Wait a minute, how could such a large stalagtite detach from the top?, it should be that large stalagtite is impossible to fall from the top suddenly, right?...
Whoa... It's not right.
Naruto looked back at the boulder before he saw anything dripping, Naruto stared at the drop and his forehead wrinkled... That, isn't that saliva?.
Naruto lifted his head and saw where the hatch came from and immediately Naruto's eyes widened perfectly, just above Naruto something large with tens of feet, the creature that he believed was similar to the centipede moved repulsively towards Naruto.
'Ah, Master... I forgot to say that this Goa is inhabited by many dangerous and poisonous Magical Beasts, one of which is the Magical Beast in front of you... Be warned Master, the poison possessed can make ten Rhynolizaerd die instantly.'
Naruto fell silent and stared at the creature that was currently in front of him with a mouth full of small but sharp teeth and did not forget the two big stings on both sides of the mouth
"Ophis..."
A slash!
Bruk!
The head of the great centipede was cut off and fell to the ground with its massive body, Naruto flickering his Katana to clean up his Katana which had been stained with disgusting purple-colored blood... Naruto stared flatly at the Magical Beast in front of him as he entered his sword.
"... Next time give me complete information about anything, okay?."
'Ha'i, Master.'
Naruto stared for a moment at the Beings he was before he turned around leaving the Magical Beast, Naruto who had just taken the third step came to a halt when he heard a screaming sound...
"Nurrrrggggh!."
Naruto turned his head back where he heard the full voice of the sufferer, it seemed like the owner of the voice needed help. Naruto's sense of humanity was knocked and Naruto quickly sharpened his hearing trying to hear the origin of the sound...
"Help me!, Arrgh!?."
"Aaaaargh!?."
Naruto stared ahead where he believed there was the origin of the sound, without much more time immediately running towards the origin of the sound, after some time running Naruto to the place where the screams of pain echoed... And what Naruto saw there was a massacre... Seen in Naruto's current line of sight are many of the same creatures that he killed before eating five men in full combat clothes who have died with the entire body turned completely blue.
Jrassh!
Naruto averted his gaze when he saw a woman in light armor clad in her body a pair of beautiful angel wings perched behind his back. the woman graciously moved the exquisite sword in her hand upwards and as the wind gathered and formed the form of a sword appeared around the woman, not one but dozens, the woman slowly lowered her sword down and like a command of a wind sword immediately shot and pierced towards the dozens of centipedes right in the head and made them die... Iris Shappire Naruto widened perfectly looking at the woman who was currently twisting in the air with her grace.
That chick...
"Hyuga... Hinata?."
Yes, Hyuga Hinata. The next heir to the Hyuga Clan and the former fiancee of Naruto... Naruto quickly took out a cloth and covered his face with the shabby white cloth... It could be bad if Hinata knew she was here... Naruto looked back at Hinata who currently seemed to have managed to kill as big of a poisonous Magical Beast...
"Women are strong..."
Naruto muttered softly when he saw how relaxed Hinata was at slaughtering those Magical Beasts.
'Of course he is strong, judging from the Magic he mastered I am sure at least the former Master's fiance is already at the level of [Gold] see how he can reach the highest peak of that Magic...'
Ophis' words made Naruto speechless, Hinata has already reached the level of [Gold]?, that means she is on the same level as Arthuria?. Naruto frowned as he caught something from Ophis' words.
"Dammy... Do you know what magic that arrogant woman is good at?."
'Uhm..?, if my guess is that he mastered the Magic Type Heavenly, and judging from that form then I can guess if he mastered the ancient Heavenly Magic... [Heavenly Magic: Anemoy of Thuellai]. One of the strongest Heavenly Magic Type winds I know... Congratulations Master, you will fight people with troublesome Magic.'
Naruto was silent before he stared back at Hinata who kept releasing his wind sword towards the Magical Beasts who continued to attack like there was no end to it...
Hinata seemed to be getting overwhelmed against the endless Magical Beast, Hinata who was shooting dozens of wind swords inexplicably felt the sight start to blur... Naruto saw Hinata start to stagger but he managed to maintain his body in the air. The woman was somehow acting strange...
'It appears that he is beginning to be exposed to the effects of the poison...'
Naruto frowned, Poison?, but Hinata did not look hurt at all... No, Naruto narrowed his eyes when he saw a fairly long scratch on Hinata's right arm, the scratch looks start to turn blue... Don't-don't you?. Ophis nodded softly in the world of her Library.
'Yes, Master... Just by being exposed to the slightest bit of poison from the Magical Beast, the [Deadly Poison Centipede]. It would cause a slow death, and the woman was in a bad situation, the poison began to spread and would soon snatch away consciousness... And if that happens then he will fall in that [Deadly Poison Centipede] sea in other words death for him.'
Naruto fell silent, if so then it was good that he would not deal with the arrogant and annoying woman, Naruto stared at Hinata who looked panting with sweat soaked his beautiful face, Hinata seemed to be unable to maintain her consciousness any longer... And it was true that suddenly Hinata released the handle on her beautiful sword that instantly disappeared into particles of light while Hinata he immediately plunged freely into the collection of poisonous Magical Beasts...
But when soon Hinata will fall into the sea full of poisonous Magical Beasts, Naruto at high speed struck his body on the ground and then darted towards Hinata and with Nice Timing Naruto managed to clutch Hinata's body.
Naruto surprised... More precisely his mind was shocked, why did he jump and capture the body of this arrogant Ex-Fiance!?, you fool!, just let him die that way you will survive!?, Naruto cursed himself who foolishly jumped and grabbed Hinata!?.
Naruto landed where he saw there were only a few Magical Beast centipedes, Feeling the embrace of someone Hinata slowly opened her eyes heavily and she saw a pair of beautiful Shappire irises looking seriously ahead that was all Hinata could see before she felt her consciousness drifting away...
"It's bad..."
Naruto muttered softly looking at the situation where he began to be approached by a collection of poisonous Magical Beasts from all directions, Naruto lifted Hinata on his shoulder and pulled his Black Katana slowly when he saw the poisonous Magical Beast was getting closer...
"It's impossible that I can fight them all at once, I have to think of a way to get out of here..."
Naruto turned his gaze around and his gaze was locked on a road far enough away from him, Naruto screeched at the considerable distance... But with no other choice, Naruto confirmed Hinata's position on his shoulder before he quickly streamed his Mana on his Katana which was instantly shrouded by a thin [Mana] pedar.
[Original Style: Great Wave]
Naruto quickly slashed his Katana vertically from the top down and Naruto released a thin energy pedar that instantly lunged forward cutting the Magical Beasts in half... Naruto who saw the path was already a little safe without much more time Naruto instantly activated his two Magic Mainstays.
[Accl]
[Buzz]
Naruto strengthened his horses and immediately threw himself towards the exit, but it seemed that it could not be allowed by the Magical Beasts who did not seem to want their prey to escape, the Magical Beasts quickly closed Naruto's path...
Naruto strengthened the grip on his Katana hilt when he saw some Magical Beasts leaping towards him, Naruto with good reflexes managed to evade those Magical Beasts and cut off their bodies... Naruto continued to run as he cut off several Magical Beasts intending to attack him...
'Master!. look in front of you!.'
Hearing the sound of warning from Ophis Naruto gazed forward and immediately Naruto's pupils widened perfectly, in line with Naruto's current view was seen a super-sized [Deadly Poison Centipede] standing covering the exit... What is the size of the body that violates that nature!?.
'Master seems like she is the queen in this place.'
Naruto gritted his teeth. Queen!?, that big centipede is the Queen!?... Worth the size!?, did he mostly eat until his body grew like that!?, Naruto brushed aside his Absurd thoughts and stared ahead with a serious look, Naruto activated his [Belial Eye] which instantly glittered frighteningly and further accelerated his running pace... When the distance was close Naruto quickly flowed Mana on his Black Katana until the Katana was seen enveloped in a fierce blaze of mana.
"So get away from..."
Naruto braced his legs to stop his pace, and leaped high before releasing a powerful slash vertically!.
"... My way!?."
Jraaaash!?
As if cutting an tofu, Naruto split the Magical Beast's body in front of him into two pieces... Naruto quickly went straight into the tunnel, Naruto, who felt the distance was safe, turned around and quickly swept through the empty air and released a thin energy pedar that directly hit the top of the tunnel ceiling and dropped the rocks directly closing the path of the Magical Beasts who were intent on chasing them...
Naruto stared warily at the rocks that covered the road in front of him for a while before he sighed when he was sure no one else was going to chase him, Naruto flicked his Katana aside to clean up the blood attached to his katana before he put his Katana into the sheath.
"I can't believe I'm still alive."
Naruto muttered softly before his iris shappi turned towards Hinata who was on his shoulder, Naruto walked and put the woman in a position to lean on the wall of Goa, Goa, Naruto stared at Hinata's right arm where he saw a blue rash begin to appear and it was a sign the poison was starting to spread.
"Ophis, do you know the antidote to the poison, the Magical Beast?."
Naruto asked as he stared intensely at the wound in Hinata's arms, Ophis fell silent before she nodded slowly. 'The Centipede Poison is indeed powerful but the antidote of the Magical Beast Poison is quite easy to make enough to give the oil extracted from the plant fruit only, the more oil that can be collected the better.' ophis said, Naruto fell silent, Fruit that contains a lot of oil in it huh?. Naruto fell silent before a Shappire-colored circle appeared beside Naruto and dropped a dull pouch over Naruto's hand.
"How lucky are you, Hyuga. You'll be safe now."
Naruto opened the bag and took one old olive and slowly squeezed it until it released oil, Naruto put the oil dripping into his mouth, Naruto again squeezed some Oil and put the drop of Oil that fell into his mouth. After being convinced enough Naruto gargled with the oil as his hand took out a small knife he took from [Dimension Space: Gate] and opened the Wound in Hinata's arms to slightly widen, after being felt wide enough Naruto immediately opened his mouth that had been coated with Olive Oil and sucked Poison in the arms of Hinata...
'So?, coating the mouth with Oil will prevent Poison mixed in the blood from leaving the mouth... I didn't expect Master to be able to think that way.'
Ophis muttered softly and saw her Master leaking blood filled with Poison aside, after several times of sucking and leaking blood mixed with Poison, Naruto stopped his activities because he felt it was enough, Naruto took a bag of water inside the Gate and drank it before gargling and then dumped the water in his mouth, he did that three times before he wiped his lips with the back of his hand. Naruto glanced at Hinata's arm before Naruto heaved a sigh of relief seeing the blue rash in the arm had already been somewhat reduced.
"Now the poison in his arms I have removed, now it is only to remove the poison in his body... Ophis, I just need to give you this olive oil, don't I?."
'Yes, that's all the Master needs to do and that way he'll be safe.'
"Hah~, then good."

Hyuga Hinata, the next heir of the Hyuga clan, one of the top clans lined up nobles in the [Alvarez] kingdom, as the next Clan heir of the renowned Clan, was, Hinata has been taught from childhood to be more concerned with himself than others, it is absolute to be a leader who will set his Clan to glory, every prospective Clan head will be taught how to be a firm leader and must assume that his Clan is the greatest... It makes Hinata grow into a selfish and arrogant person when dealing with other prospective heirs...
Not long ago Hinata was disrespectful to her fiancee Candidate, Heir of the Namikaze Clan, a lowly noble family that had not been seen since the decline of the current Clan head, Namikaze Minato. Hinata not only rejected the handsome young man, but also insulted his pride in front of his father and mother...
Hinata's selfishness blinded her eyes if the young man had the same nature as her, they both equally appreciated and upheld their Clan's name... just because the young man had a disability in terms of the development of the Mana Clan Hyuga urged Hyuga Hiashi, The father of Hinata and the current head of the Hyuga Clan to break off the engagement was because they were ashamed that the next heir was a genius who was talented in the field of ancient Heavenly Magic and at a very young age Hinata had become a level Wizard [Gold], a development that made the name Hinata perched in the alignment of the geniuses of the Alvarez kingdom and saw their Heiress betrothed to a loser like Naruto would only cause disgrace among the Hyuga Nobles, with that insistence finally Hiashi reluctantly broke off the engagement.
The selfishness of Hinata made her choose the wrong choice because she had cut ties with the young man who a few days ago had proven that she was not a loser by showing her success in the development of Mana which previously only touched the numbers 9 Now after 3 months it rises to Silver III, the rapid development was even too fast when compared to Hinata who needed training for several years to be able to reach a level that was now different from the young man named Namikaze Naruto who only needed 3 months to ascend become level [Silver: III]...
Seeing the speed of development Mana owned by Naruto makes Naruto's name into the ranks as kisei no see, a generation of miracles along with several other heiress and heir Clan. Hearing that the eldest of the Hyuga Clan somehow became regretful for breaking off the engagement between him and Naruto... They ask that Hiashi re-engage with Naruto but Hinata quickly rejects it even he dares to oppose his father by saying...
"This is my life!, no one has the right to rule with whom I will marry!, not even my own father has the right to rule my life!... Me and the Namikaze Heir Clan have already made a deal if we refuse this engagement!, and promised to settle the matter of this engagement on top of the Hyuga Holy Temple, Temple of Moon in a few more months!, so don't you guys try to plan my engagement with that young man again!."
Thanks to all that the eldest immediately silenced even Hiashi could not oppose his son because arguably the one who controls the Hyuga Clan today is Hinata, he controls almost all of Hyuga's diclan business and that makes him an 'unshakable person' even Hinata's father did not dare to do anything to his daughter because if Hinata did rebel movements then it was clear he would lose because Hinata also controlled the soldiers and it made Hinata more unshakable.
Yep... Great achievement for a young Heiress, but if you see how her condition is now Hinata is nothing more than a girl who is sleeping fast.
Hinata slowly came to her senses, her lavender iris opened and greeted the world, Hinata blinked her eyes several times to adjust her blurred vision, after clearly Hinata looked ahead where she saw if she was currently being carried by a man, she was sure it was because no woman had a back as wide and solid as this.
Hinata turned her gaze and looked at the person who was holding her and she saw a man with a face covered by a piece of cloth so that his face would not be seen. Feeling that the person he was carrying noticed Naruto turned his head back and Iris Shappire beautifully met the charming Lavender.
"Ah, Hinata-san?, have you come to your senses?."
Hinata was speechless to see this person, otherwise this person was the same person that he gave the city [Rudret] a ride, otherwise this person was named Haruto... Wait a minute?, iris shappire?, Hinata grimaced softly as she recalled what happened... As he fought against the Magical Beast he was exposed to the Magical Beast's poison and lost his consciousness when he thought that he was going to die suddenly someone grabbed him and held him in the style of Princess, Hinata remembers clearly a pair of shappire iris belonging to the person who helped her... Iris Lavender Hinata... So the one who helped him from death was...
"Haruto-san... Did Haruto-san save me?."
Hinata asked, Naruto fell silent before he nodded slowly. "yes, that's how, that was so dangerous Hinata-san, you can die if I don't happen to hear the sound of your fight with those magical beasts, lucky with my experience of meeting so many Magical Beasts I can easily take you with me if not I'm sure you're dead." Naruto said as his feet continued to move forward, Hinata fell silent before she smiled faintly.
"Terrimakasin, Haruto-san, you're going to save me."
"No problem, Hinata-san. And anyways... I owe you one too, right?."
Hinata fell silent before she nodded slowly, Naruto putting on a smiling face before she turned her eyes forward.
"Ah, Hinata-san how are you?, do you still feel dizzy or nauseous?."
Asked Naruto, Hinata fell silent before he nodded softly, Naruto making his eyes smile. "Thank God, the poison has really come out" said Naruto making Hinata's forehead wrinkled, Poison?. The confused Hinata suddenly turned her gaze to his arm where there was a cloth wrapped in his arm... If not wrong this arm there is a scratch wound from the poisonous Magical Beast and thanks to that Hinata lost her consciousness and almost died...
"Haruto-san, have you healed me?."
Hinata asked, Naruto fell silent before nodding, "Well that's it, you were exposed to the poison of the Magical Beast that was able to kill 10 Ryhnolizaerd easily, lucky you were only exposed to a small amount of poison and it was easily cured... I removed the poison from your arm and gave you the antidote for the poison, now that you can calm down Hinata-san, the poison is no longer in your body." naruto's words made Hinata speechless and stared at Naruto with a deep look.
"Haruto-san..."
"Uhm?..."
"... Why would Haruto-san help me?."
Hinata stared at the silent Naruto... In Hinata's mind at this time revolved around the question, why would Haruto-san want to help himself?, is it because he is an important noble?, or because by helping him he can get rewarded?. Or-, uh,.
"If you ask me why then I guess, because you're a woman to protect."
*ba-dump*
Hinata froze at Naruto's gentle reply, her Lavender iris staring at Naruto with her Smile Eye... Hinata closed her eyes as she felt a strange flare up in her chest... His chest felt tight but somehow he felt happiness filling him.. But Naruto was unaware of it and stared ahead.
"I don't mean to say if Hinata-san is a weak woman, I know you are strong, but in the end as strong as a woman she still needs a male figure to protect her, right?."
*ba-dump*
Hinata increasingly felt tightness in his face, Naruto who felt Hinata speechless turned back and he found Hinata who bowed her head with a red hue on her face, Naruto looked at it with a confused look, why did Hinata fall silent?, Naruto looked at it with a confused look, why did Hinata fall silent?, does he have a fever?...
"Hinata-san?, your face is flushed Are you sick?."
"ti-no... I'm fine.and Haruto-san, can you put me down, I can already walk on my own."
"Eh?, okay."
Naruto lowered Hinata slowly, he stared at the confused Hinata who immediately walked in front before he shrugged and stepped following Hinata who was in front, Ophis who was in Naruto's Mindscape sighed flatly.
"Masters... Someday this ability of yours will get you into some serious trouble."
Jeanne who was in a different dimension to Ophis could only smile and nod in approval to Ophis' words.
After walking for a while Naruto and Hinata finally saw a light and without much time ran towards the place but when they reached the light they were surprised because it turned out that the place was a dark abyss without foundation...
"Yeah!."
Hinata almost fell into the abyss if Naruto did not catch Hinata and bring her into Naruto's arms.
"Almost just..."
Naruto muttered in relief as he timely captured Hinata, wait a moment... He did it again!, why does he always help people he doesn't like!, what's wrong with his body moving on its own!?. Naruto rampaged inwardly until he was unaware of Naruto's reddened Hinata.
"A-Ano... Oh, haruto-san..."
Hearing Hinata's soft voice made Naruto wake up from his inner rage and turn his gaze towards Hinata who was flushed in his arms... Wait, hug!?.
"Wuaaa, sorry Hinata-san, I didn't mean to..."
"It's okay, Haruto-san."
Awkwardly... Naruto and Hinata were swallowed in silence, they both looked awkward before Hinata coughed to remove the awkward air between them...
"Y-Yes, I think it's a dead end, Haruto-san... Ki-we'll just come back."
Hinata said, Naruto saw Hinata trying to build a new atmosphere following the plot, because as a real man he should not waste women's effort.
"Y-Yes I think we're back just-,"
'Wait for Master, why leave, we're on the right path...'
Ophis cut off Naruto's words that immediately frowned upon hearing Ophis' words, are they in the right place?.
"What do you mean, Ophis... I see nothing in this place except this vast and bottomless abyss."
'Indeed, this looks like a vast and bottomless abyss when viewed using ordinary eyes, try to get Hyuga's woman next to Master to activate her Byakugan.'
Naruto raises one eyebrow at the suggestion of Ophis, telling Hinata to activate her Byakugan?... What did Ophis really want?, why did she ask Hinata to activate her Byakugan?.
"Ophis, I don't know what you're hiding but I hope it'll lead us to the floating Castle, [Avantheim]."
'Just relax, Master. You'll see soon enough, [Avantheim].'
Naruto sighed before he turned to look at Hinata, who was looking at him with a confused look.
"Haruto-san?, why are you quiet?."
"A-Ah, not that I was just thinking something, ah right as well... Hinata-san, can you activate your [Byakugan] for a moment?."
Naruto's speech left Hinata speechless for a while before she tilted her head curiously.
"Why should I activate [Byakugan]?."
Hinata asked Naruto to bring out his Eye Smile.
"Look, Hinata-san. I want to show you something that only a magic-eye owner like you can see."
Naruto's speech made Hinata even more confused, but he was also curious about what Naruto wanted to show, Hinata sighed.
"Alright, Haruto-san. I'll activate my [Byakugan], wait a minute."
After saying that Hinata closed her eyes and focused her [Mana] in her eyes, slowly veins around the temple of Hinata Thickened and a second later Hinata opened her eyes.
[Byakugan]
"Alright, so what do you want to show me, Haruto-san."
Naruto put on an eye smile and faced towards the vast and bottomless abyss.
"Let's look ahead, Hinata-san... And tell me what you saw."
Naruto's speech made Hinata stare at Naruto's bewildered before he followed Naruto's advice and stared ahead, instantly as Iris Lavender Hinata widened perfectly... What Hinata is seeing right now is something very amazing, Hinata's current vision needs, he said, right in front of the two of them was a bright green strip that extended and led to a circular place enclosed by a round energy dome.
"Ha-Haruto-san, i-it..."
"How?, did you see it, Hinata-san."
"Y-Yes I saw him... I-it's amazing, Haruto-san."
Naruto stared at Hinata who was putting on a sparkling face, this woman looks so sweet if she has that expression, but Naruto knows if this sweet woman is the same woman who has made her Clannya Shame.
"Alright, Hinata-san. Can you explain what you saw?."
Hinata who was unemployed what she saw immediately turned her head and looked towards Naruto who was looking at her with his Smile Eye.
"I... I saw a green path in front of us, Haruto-san, this path is connected to a huge energy dome right in the middle of this abyss."
"That's it?, Hinata-san... Can you lead the way to that energy vault?."
Asked Naruto reciprocated a nod from Hinata, the two without much time stepping on the transparent green road, in the first step both Hinata and Naruto hesitated because if their footing turned out to be fragile then it was certain Naruto and Hinata would fall into that bottomless abyss, their initial steps were safe, he said, Hinata nodded and told Naruto to follow in his footsteps... The two of them immediately walked towards the Energy Dome that Hinata saw while both of them were ignorant of the miracle they were experiencing, they currently looked like walking air.
Naruto, who was in the middle of this miracle, stopped when Hinata stopped right in front of him and stared ahead with a doubtful look.
"Hinata-san?, what have we got in front of that energy dome?."
Naruto asked Hinata to look at Naruto and nodded slowly.
"Yes, right in front of us is an energy dome... But..."
"But?... But what?."
"Uhm... But I can't see what's inside that energy dome, I'm afraid that what's inside this energy dome is something that could harm us."
Naruto fell silent as his iris shappie stared at Hinata who made a face of difficulty, Naruto was silent for a while before taking out his Eye Smile and walking past Hinata who was staring at Naruto who was standing right in front of the Energy Dome in front of him.
"Haruto-san what do you want to do?."
"Uhm?, of course go inside, right?."
Said Naruto before he stuck out his hand and touched the energy dome in front of him, Hinata widened her eyes slightly when she saw Naruto's hand redeeming into the energy dome, Naruto who saw his hand swallowed directly move inside... Hinata who saw Naruto enter seemed hesitant but she did not have much time left, finally after a while in doubt Hinata finally decided to jump into the Energy dome...
Arriving inside the energy dome, Hinata is made to be glued to the view in front of her where she sees a clear sky with slow moving clouds, no, that's not what makes Hinata fixated, what makes Hinata fixated is that in front of her right now there is a large and magnificent Castle that stands firmly in front of her, not only Hinata who is fixated but Naruto who is right next to her is also fixated...
"We're here..."
"... Floating castle..."
""...[.".Avantheim]...""
