A red haired boy with whisker on his face sighed for the nth time, he simply wanted to hang himself as he wept anime tears, 'why why oh God, why am I sitting beside this worthless chatterbox, will it kill her to keep her mouth shut, I so do not want to know when her nephew peed on her again, ugh someone kill me or kill her.'
The source of his misfortune was none other than an elder woman who was constantly speaking to him, without stopping no matter how much he wanted he could not stop her and air hostesses were trying to stay away as far away from them as possible no matter how much he gave them the puppy dog eye.
'Drat, why did I have to grow older, it worked wonders when I used to be young.' lamented the red haired boy, 'I wished something interesting happens soon.'
A few hours later an almost catatonic boy cursed the heavens as he spoke, 'Why oh why, when I used for something interesting I did not mean something like this!'
It all started when he decided to help his next door neighbor Ichirou Kusanagi, to deliver an old rusted sacrificial knife to a woman by the name of Lucretia Zola apparently an old flame of grandpa Ichirou, as such he had arrived in a remote village near the ancient capital of Aztec Empire known as Tenochtitlan.
The red haired boy looked around what seemed like some archaeological dig site, it had taken some time for him to reach this place, language barrier was a bitch after all, seeing an European woman he approached her hoping at least she would be able to understand him.
He approached a youthful looking woman as he spoke, "Yo excuse me miss but do you know any lady by the name of Lucretia Zola?"
The woman turned towards her as she spoke, "Who is asking?"
The boy gave a smile as he spoke, "Well my name is Naruto Uzumaki and I was send here by Lucretia Zola's acquaintance Ichirou Kusanagi."
The woman smiled at that as she spoke, "Well my name is Lucretia Zola."
Naruto deadpanned at that as he spoke, "Sorry seems like I have found the wrong Lucretia, well good day to you and good bye."
The woman giggled at that as she spoke, "Well how do you not know I am not the real deal, Ichirou's neighbor?"
Naruto turned around as he looked at her with a frown, "Yeah right, you are too young to be Ichirou's old flame."
The woman giggled at that as she spoke, "Well I assure you I am…...", but before anyone could speak anything a roar resounded as people started running like headless chicken.
The woman's smiling face turned into a scared one as a large serpentine looking draconic beast immerged from the ground with feathers around it, the woman cursed as she spoke, "Naruto run I will but you time, NOW GO!"
Naruto's eyes widen as he decided to run only to stop seeing a person crushed by the beast, he let out a small sigh, 'Curse me and my bleeding hurt.'
He dropped his bag pack and picked the only weapon he had in his person a sacrificial knife, as he held it in his hand he felt a pulse of energy as the rust fell of it as it looked as if it was new, 'With this at least I will have something to at least protect myself and others.'
The knife suddenly released a pulse of magic attracting the beast's attention as well as paralyzing Ryuu, as it dashed towards a petrified Naruto, who looked helplessly at the beast coming towards only for him to be pushed to the side as he felt blood fall on his face he looked with his eyes open wide at the greatly injured form of Lucretia, as he felt himself once again able to move he shouted out, "YOU OLD DECREPIT RELIC I WILL SKIN YOU ALIVE."
Naruto jumped as a large magic circle appeared beneath his legs as he lunged towards the beast as he made his way up towards the head of the beast, it flung its head sending Naruto flying as he flailed his hands the beast opened its mouth swallowing him whole.
Lucretia looked at Naruto helplessly as she spoke with a sigh, "At least Ichirou would not be able to complain to me that I got his neighbor killed, after all I will soon follow."
As the beast lowered its head glaring at Lucretia it suddenly let out a howl of agony as it vomited ichor before it felt on the ground with as it spasm before something tore out of its chest as it stepped out of it, a grotesque figure most of his hands and face looked as if it had suffered from third degree burn, the figure made his way toward Lucretia whose eyes had lost its shine as the life that clung to her was about to leave, the red haired figure knelt before he kissed on her lips, life seemed to return to Lucretia as the figure collapsed near her.
Naruto opened his eyes as he glanced at the figure who was caressing his hair, as his vision cleared he saw a pink haired girl caressing his head it felt nice he could not remember anyone doing it for him like ever.
Naruto decided to enjoy it as he closed his eyes it felt nice, a few minutes later the figure spoke with a smile on her face, "As much as I would like to spoil you the time is running out son."
At that Naruto opened his eyes as he sat up drawing a pout from the girl as he spoke, "Who are you? And where am I?", as he looked around all he could see was white emptiness.
The girl gave a motherly smile as she spoke, "I am your adopted mother Pandora and the place we are is in between purgatory and land of the living."
Naruto looked at her in a disbelieving tone, "Yeah right, now enough of these joke, now tell me who you really are kid."
Only for him to be slapped by a teary eyed woman as she spoke…..
Naruto opened his eyes as he felt someone approached him, he opened his eyes and found himself in a tent, 'Odd such an odd dream.'
"Welcome to the land of the living.", a melodious voice came to him as he looked at that speaker groggily before his eyes widen as he spoke, "Everything was real."
Lucretia smiled at that as she spoke with a coy smile, "My my do you mean the kiss you gave me, you hentai."
The twelve years old blushed crimson at that as steam appeared from his ears as he stammered out, "i-i- was t-trying to sa-save you."
The woman simply giggled as she spoke, "Relax I was joking, my king.", with that her voice turned serious as she addressed Naruto.
Causing Naruto to sigh hard at that as he spoke, "So I was not dreaming, I really became this Campione thing, troublesome."
Naruto then turned towards Lucretia as he spoke, "Is there a way to make sure others do not know about this?"
Lucretia frowned as she spoke, "Well I suppose I can make sure your identity will not be revealed I can erase others memory of your identity but unfortunately the many have already felt your crowning specially the other Campione but good for you they do know nothing about you."
Naruto visibly relaxed as Lucretia spoke curiously to him, "My king what is your age?"
Naruto: "I am twelve."
Lucretia eyes widened at that as she spoke, "Twelve, which means you are the youngest Campione till date, after all you managed to kill heretic god 'Quetzalcoatl' even if he was weakened considerable, as such congratulations on being the Seventh Campione."
Naruto nodded dumbly at that as he let out a sigh as he spoke, "I so wish something like that did not happen and please call me Naruto it feels weird if I am called 'King'."
Lucretia gave a kind smile as she spoke, "Thank you Naruto for saving my life, but how bold of you to kiss me."
Naruto once again turned redder than his hair as he spoke, "I-I would take responsibility.", his eyes burning with determination.
Lucretia spoke with a teasing tone, "Oh my how bold of you first you kissed me then you want to claim me."
Naruto clenched his hand as he spoke, "I will never let my child grow with his father."
Now it was turn for Lucretia to frown as she spoke, "And why would I have your kid."
Naruto: "I kissed you right now you will have my kid."
Lucretia Zola looked at Naruto as if he had grown a second head as she decided to explain to him about birds and bees and a few hours later Naruto had trouble being near a female.
Lucretia: "So what will you do now kid?"
Naruto sighed as he spoke, "Well I do not know but I have to learn about these authorities as well as learn a lot of skills now if what I know about my kind, or else I will be killed today it was a fluke. "
"At least you know you limit, but really getting eaten by God at least you were not popped out.", a male voice full of mirth came to their ears as Lucretia jumped up from her seat as her magic power flared her hands outstretched towards the new comer.
Naruto sighed as he spoke, "Did you really have to scare her master? And for how long were you spying on us?"
The man in question simply laughed at that as he spoke, "Well since you were taking your beauty nap."
Naruto pouted as Lucretia lowered her hand and greeting the newcomer, "Greetings Wizard Marshal Zelretch, if I may ask, why are you here?"
Zelretch: "Ah Lucretia Zola I simply wanted to check on my apprentice after all he has a penchant for getting into trouble."
Naruto spoke with a pout, "I so do not get into trouble old man."
Zelretch simply nodded at as he spoke, "Yes yes you do not get into trouble, but someone who looked like you got into at Budapest right? Or what about Moscow oh better still what about Kyoto?"
As he spoke Naruto suddenly found the floor to be interesting extremely so.
Zelretch: "Well it is time, so let us leave Naruto."
Naruto nodded before he waved towards Lucretia as he spoke, "Well it was nice meeting you see you again someday."
Lucretia nodded back nervously at Naruto as she spoke, "Well do not be stranger and visit me soon, I will be waiting.", while her mind was moving in 1000 miles per second, 'Damn, the kid is a goner now, oh well so much for becoming the 7th Campione, what number of apprentice is he now 389th or 388th, I wonder how long he would survive 6 months nah maybe 7 months under his tutelage.'
