《Sallycia Book 2》Chapter 4
Advertisement
Like his brother said, the library was quiet, undisturbed and no weirdo dog with blond fetish as Nox put it.
Sometimes Naruto didn't understand what his older brother says.
Mostly when Nox is in a fit.
He did mention a duck butt once...Naruto didn't want to know where that came from.
Right now Naruto was alone in the library, it seemed that all the students stayed outside and didn't want to get close to books, which Naruto didn't mind...it was quiet like in the Sky Palace when his friends the three Angels and him were doing quite nothing.
Silence, it's really quiet around here.
Naruto sat silently reading a few books, mostly about the kingdoms around here or about the wars all around the continent. In the Sky Palace, they had a library, but Nox wasn't interested in the wars that were going around him at that time since Nox knew of them perfectly.
Naruto continued to read until the sound of someone walking in the library was heard.
'Is it the stalker?' Naruto asked his older brother.
[She's not, she's the angel girl from the exam who came in third place]
Knowing that it wasn't the stalker Naruto relaxed instantly, he resumed his reading happily but it stopped when someone sat at the same table and in front of him, Naruto looked up annoyed.
The girl was blushing at him. Naruto left a soft sigh, he couldn't stay mad at that image, it reeked, the girl was extremely shy...really shy.
"Yes?"
"Eeep!"
'Eeep!?'
[Eeep??? Hahahahahahahahaha] Naruto ignored his brother's laughter. The sound that the Angel let out surprised him, that sound wasn't the first thing he expected to come out of her mouth.
" Sorry! I-I a-am extra-extremely sorry! I'm really sorry" The angel started apologizing making the silent library to become loud.
" I get it, there's no need to apologize," Naruto said monotonously, trying to help the girl and trying to get the silence back.
" I-I thank you!" Naruto nodded.
" Kitsune-Uzumaki-san"
" Call me Naruto"
"Y- Yes then, Naruto-Kun, please call me Hinata"
" No, Naruto is alright, Hinata" Naruto shook his head. Hinata blushed harsher.
" So what do you want?" Naruto went straight to the point, there was no point on just surrounding the subject.
" Ah! Please be my friend! " Naruto was startled for the second time of the day. He didn't expect that to come out of her mouth either. Well, she was an Angel and not a filthy Human.
Plus he didn't see any downside to this relationship.
" Ok, I'll be in your care Hinata" Hinata blinked a few times before smiling brightly, must be an Angel ability. Plus making friends was also why Naruto came to this school.
" I'll be in your care too, Naruto" Naruto nodded.
Naruto went back to his book, Hinata was looking around silently, which Naruto was extremely grateful, that was a big plus for Naruto.
But Naruto was also annoyed, yes he was grateful for the silence, even her footsteps were silent, but she was moving too much for his taste.
" Are you ready for our exam, this Friday? " Naruto asked his voice was stronger thanks to the Echo.
Hinata let out a startled sound, again.

" Not really, Kakashi-sensei didn't tell us what we will be evaluated on" Naruto only stared at her.
' that's the point Kakashi-sensei want to see how we react to things we don't know and how we will solve them' Naruto frowned mentally.
"Well, then why don't we revise everything in the curriculum and I'll help you with the things you don't know" Naruto proposed. At least he would have something to do around here already knowing that before the end of three years he would have already read, all the books here.
Hinata nodded, Naruto stood and took all the book that his brother told him that would be in the program.
Hinata looked at the books wide-eyed.
"Isn't that a lot?" Hinata tried to smile but it came out awkward.
" No, at all, I will never let my only friend fail her exam if I could avoid it" Naruto smirked, he was rapidly getting comfortable with Hinata, it was strange how rapidly it developed, well they did stay a long time here.
" Now Hinata open the book" Naruto smirked. Hinata gulped when she saw Naruto's smile, it felt Evil, how did it develop like this? Hinata cried internally.
She couldn't give up now on her only friend.
Most people would only befriend her because of her appearance, and the fact that she's an Angel didn't help either, plus she was one hundred per cent sure that Naruto wouldn't make a move on her, she didn't know how, but she's was sure that this guy would be her friend and only that her friend, maybe best-friend or close friend, but nothing more than that. Plus it helped a lot that Naruto didn't judge her by her appearance but her mind.
And she was extremely grateful for that.

Naruto was satisfied with the day he spent with Hinata in the library. They studied for the exam that was coming up, It felt refreshing.
Studying with other people is better than doing it alone, of course, you have to study with people you know you will study if you don't well you won't be able to study properly.
Right now Naruto was relaxing in his bath with his brother...the warmth of the water on his skin was heavenly. Nox was also taking advantage since he was around Naruto's neck.
[Did you enjoy your day?] Naruto opened his eyes at his brother's voice.
" I did, it's the first time I taught someone else than someone in the sky palace." Naruto looked at selling blue and white, but the white was dominating the blue.
[is that so, lucky us that your stalker didn't appear, that duck butt is-] Naruto frowned when Nox stopped his rant, only time could stop him before Naruto could ask what was happening, Naruto felt the disturbance in the air.
It was magic, ancient magic...and there was a lot of it.
Naruto waited for his brother for a few seconds and opened his mouth.
"What was that?" Naruto asked the magic didn't feel comfortable.
[ Disgusting Mortals...wait when I get my hands on you using my husband's powers to do your dirty work, weakling! Thieves! Shameless! How dare you!!] Naruto was slightly surprised to get that as an answer normally it would take a little bit to get that reaction, but this time it was instantly.

"Big brother?" Naruto tried to get Nox back.
[ What?!]
" What happened?!" Naruto asked.
[*sigh* useless humans did something with the help of a god by taking my husband power. They summoned someone from another world and might have enslaved him already]
" Him?" Naruto asked to see if Nox saw the new Hero.
[Yeah him, blue-eyed short blond hair, a classic hero if you ask me, those humans prefers males like that...] Nox started mumbling Naruto unable to understand what Nox was saying.
[You should go and sleep tomorrow will be a long and annoying day, low-level monsters will get restless and attack anything that moves, go to sleep] Naruto nodded and stood from the bath. Naruto summoned warm air and dried his body easily. He then put his clothes and went for his bed.
___
The next morning, Naruto was awakened by the morning sun that hit his body through the window.
"Morning"
[ Good Morning, Naruto] Naruto nodded and went to do his morning routine.
When Naruto came out he saw that few students from the house of Lightning were already waiting, Naruto waited with them.
Few other students joined them before they left to the cafeteria.
Naruto ate silently, before walking to his homeroom class with Kakashi-Sensei.
Naruto was the first to come and soon Hinata joined him and sat next to him.
When the other students came in, they were surprised when they saw Naruto and Hinata next to each other and speaking as if they knew each other for years, When a Demon with Onyx dark eyes saw this he scowled then he sat a behind them and glared at Hinata.
Naruto and Hinata pretty much ignored every sound around them until Kakashi-Sensei entered the classroom.
" Morning" Kakashi-sensei yawned.
" Morning Kakashi-sensei" The Class chorused.
" Well before we start anything, any question?" a few hands were raised.
" Yes? Mr....?"
" Akimichi Chojj, yes well my roommates and I wanted to know what happened yesterday, I mean it's the first time we felt something like that" Naruto looked at the guy who was eating....well Naruto always saw him eating, must be a condition for using his type of magic, Naruto looked back at the teacher.
" Ah that, yes I know what it means, but does anyone in the class knows? " Naruto immediately raised his hand when he saw no one raising it.
" Ah Naruto?! Go ahead" Kakashi was surprised that one of his students knew of the meaning. Well, it was Naruto, it might not be that surprising.
" Yes, well what everyone felt yesterday was the effect of summoning of a hero from another world" Naruto didn't say anything anymore, he could already sense his brother's anger and Naruto didn't want to be the victim of his wrath since Nox was around his neck.
When Naruto finished his answer his classmates started whispering harshly.
" a hero? "
" he must be handsome~"
" Do you think he will come here?"
" of course it's the best school in the world!"
" Thank you, Naruto, for the answer. As Naruto said, Yesterday what we felt was the backslash of the magic used to summon a hero from another world." Kakashi-sensei took back the control of the class easily, but Naruto could see the sadistic gleam in his visible eye.
" Now Class! Let's start as you are aware you have an exam this Friday meaning two days, when the scores come out, we will see who will leave the class and who will stay" Kakashi-sensei smiled at the groan of his students.
___
After homeroom class Naruto flew away directly by the window, knowing that Hinata could easily follow him, but his stalker couldn't.
'Brother, was it a good idea to not tell them the truth?' Naruto asked mentally while flying toward the dorms to hide for an hour, then he'll be heading out to the library to study.
[It is! Naruto don't tell me you were about to tell them the truth? The humans wouldn't believe you at all! Then they will come for your head even if you are a chosen one!! Naruto are you becoming dumb?] Naruto let out a sigh and continued to fly away trying to ignore the 'gentle' insult that his big brother was throwing at him.
Naruto flew around for awhile sensing that his stalker was following him, but when he lost him he flew directly to the library where he saw Hinata already waiting for him surrounded by the books from yesterday.
" Naruto, how come you're late I saw you leave by air," Hinata asked curiously, the first she saw when coming out of the building was seeing Naruto fly away at high speed.
" Leaving my stalker behind, he was following me" That was not the answer she saw coming, who would have thought that Naruto already had a stalker. Wait who would stalk Naruto? For what? A challenger? For the first rank? It wouldn't be impossible as the third rank she was already challenged many times. Well, it didn't matter, they didn't stop her as she went to the library, well she only had an hour before going to the next class. She also wondered why Naruto didn't come to any classes yesterday.
" Who is your stalker?" Hinata asked. Naruto watched her, maybe she would help to make his stalker stop.
" Duckbutt " Hinata was lost for few seconds until she remembered a handsome male with the same hairstyle. Sasuke???? That's definitely a challenge!!! But Naruto said Stalk...not challenge...and Sasuke could challenge Naruto when he started walking out of the classroom...and while in the lecture, she could also feel a heated glare at her back...ah maybe it's not that...perhaps Sasuke wants to be friends or something similar...yes let's go for that.
For the few minutes left Naruto put Hinata through intense study before releasing her to her next class...but at least it left Naruto alone with the books which put his mind in a positive mindset.
On the other side of the Academy, Hinata was challenged by Sasuke few minutes before the class started, which would take few minutes of the class, seen as an opportunity which was rarely seen the teacher said nothing and looked at the match between the second and third rank.
They watched as the two being clashed.

Blightbane
Miscellaneous Notes: - I want to see about making a crude map of Shroud to help readers. - I also want to get back to writing Coalescence updates. Schedule Notes: - None for now, updates when I can. [ Thank you for your patience and support as I improve my writing and storytelling abilities. I'm also using this story to better develop lore that extends far beyond it. ] Thanks to another exceptionally talented artist, Hiroeth, Blightbane now has an official cover! Vera was alone again. “You’re completely unprepared. Never before has sending one of you off made me feel quite so guilty.” Whenever she found herself in doubt, she would weigh her actions against the guiding principles of the one whom she revered. “When you don’t know the rules of the game, start making them up. When you are constrained by unfavorable conditions, inject a little chaos.” It was the supplementary message that concerned Vera the most. It was difficult to follow because it was intentionally vague and mired in subjectivity. “How can I enjoy myself when you look so tormented? Are we in danger?” Vera fell silent. An experiment is taking place on a planetary scale. Across the surface of the planet, a phenomenon referred to as "Blight" is spreading. Festering regions defended by fierce creatures called “blightbeasts” taint the surface, warping the land and proliferating unceasingly. Among the sentient creatures of the planet, it is the Blightbane Guild’s responsibility to stem the tide. They endeavor to cleanse the land in a struggle of attrition, but they are losing ground. A young man named Caim has been uprooted from his former life and transported to The Shrouded Theocracy, an isolationist nation with fanatical policies. He must struggle to survive with only an unfamiliar strain of magic to aid him. There is a secret to this magic. One he knows very little about. He intends to explore just what makes this magic special. On the far border of the theocracy, a mage scientist named Inis discovers a revolutionary new way to infuse strength from defeated blightbeasts. Using herself as a test subject, this process allows her to grasp magical concepts previously thought beyond her reach. Though she tries to document any side effects that arise, something escapes her awareness. She is playing with a dangerous force that will claim her most treasured asset if she isn't careful. Everyone and everything on the planet is a part of the experiment. The experiment is a lie.
