ALL NOVEL Chapter 101: Chapter 102
Yasaka had decided to stay on the bed with Kunou and slept with her like they always did. Everyone in Rias' peerage had stayed in the empty rooms he had, this is the first time Uzumaki Mansion had this many residents and had rung out with laughter. Naruto chuckled at memory. The look on Issei's face when he 'accidentally' put him and Asia in a different rooms.
"Naruto-kun?"
Naruto turned his head behind him and saw that Rias was standing at the door looking at him with a surprised expression on her face. Naruto's face reddened a little at seeing her clothes which were simply string panties and unbuttoned T-shirt.
"Couldn't sleep Rias-chan?" Naruto asked while he devoured the sight in front of him.
"It's actually pretty hard to sleep without you beside me," Rias walked up to the balcony and leaned her arm on it. She said it casually like it was an obvious thing made Naruto turn his head so fast they his neck nearly cracked only for Rias to take a deep breath. The wind slowly blew through her crimson tresses adding a magical quality to the scene, "I'm sorry for attacking you this morning Naruto-kun."
"You've already apologized once Rias, " Naruto words pulled him out of his thought. He stared into her beautiful blue-green eyes and smiled, "Plus, you don't have to worry or even say sorry. It's not everyday that your childhood friend gets stuck in a misunderstanding about his 'child'."
Rias giggled at his words and brought her face closer to his. She asked with a gentle smile, "Say Naruto-kun, what are you planning to do after becoming a high-class devil? You know when you become a high-class devil you wouldn't have to worry about Devil jobs anymore. And with your current status in the devil world, plus your acting part in 'Magical Girl Levia-tan', I say you wouldn't have to worry about money for about a hundred years. So what are your plans for the future?"
Rias brought up a good point, if she hadn't remind him then Naruto wouldn't know what to do after his promotion to a High-Class devil. Sure, he still had his dream of confessing his feelings to his lovely childhood friend, and after his date with Rias that dream only grew stronger. But what would he do after confessing his feelings to her? He just couldn't just take an heiress to one of the most powerful Clans to a date without troubling her? Plus he also had a lot of issues with the higher-ups. Those guys would never let him have a minute of free time let alone let him date someone of Rias' prestige.
"I really don't know Rias-chan" he confessed truthfully, "You know before you came into my life all I wanted was to stay alive. It was a constant struggle just to stay alive and not die from starvation or illness. After I met you and we became best friends, everything changed for me especially after living at the Gremory castle. I didn't have to worry constantly about my life and I had a family which cared for me, friends who would never leave my side, especially, a certain beautiful and lovely girl I know who just so happens to be my childhood friend who brought happiness to my life and made it more interesting," He chuckled but kept his eyes focused on the town so he didn't see the furious blush on Rias' face, "But you know what Rias-chan, the life I had before I met you, the life I was living after the loss of my family was fake. . . it was all fake."
Rias' eyes widened at Naruto's speech. The image of a younger Naruto, holding a black katana pointed at her throat suddenly appeared in her mind. Her face lost its color when she saw the look in his eyes, those same eyes he had the day she accidentally bumped into him.
"I didn't want to worry anyone especially you Rias-chan with some stupid memory of mine" Naruto gritted his teeth, "However, sooner or later you guys will found out everything about me. Even I don't remember half of my previous life . . . When I woke up in Lucifer's castle, I had inconsistent gaps in my memories, and no matter how tried I tried or what methods I used, I couldn't remember. I couldn't remember how I lost my conscious and how I ended up in the castle," Rias bit her lower lips to stop the words from coming out. She didn't want to tell him the truth, he would hate himself for nearly killing her, one of his precious people.
"But last month, I remembered a part of my previous life," Naruto smiled warmly at the memories Kurama gave him, "I was ten years old and joined an academy that would teach me how to fight, how to protect myself. Sadly, I couldn't remember my parents, but that day when I joined the Academy, I was nothing but a trouble maker, pulling pranks. I acted idiotically so that people would notice me. Why do I do such things for attention? I don't know. But that day I met a person who cared for me. An older brother would support me. His name was Iruka Umino, my first sensei."
