WHAP!WHAP!WHAP!WHAP!WHAP!
The sound of flesh slamming into flesh filled Naruto and Flora’s room, half-an-hour later, as the strapping young lad pounded a naked and flustered Miria into the bed from behind. The Number 6 wailed pleasurably into a pillow, not quite knowing or caring how exactly she got into this situation in the first place.
After their conversation in the bar started getting a bit awkward, she suggested they take it somewhere private and the three of them relocated to the room that Naruto and Flora had booked. Then, one thing lead to another and now…
Mira wailed as a wave of pleasure wracked her to the very core, her sexual juices gushing all over and coating Naruto’s balls as she came hard. Her whole body twitched as she rode out her orgasm.
“Oh-ho, my~!” Flora giggled. “Someone seems to like it more than she was letting on~!” She then crawled on up to her man and growled sexily into his ear. “Go on, keep it up! Show her those delicious sensations that only a man can make her feel~!”
His girlfriend goading him combined with Miria’s fluttering walls squeezing his shaft sent him flying over the edge as Naruto let loose a throaty grunt. Miria shuddered at the sensation of his wet heat flooding her loins. It truly was every bit as marvelous as she’d heard! She came again, her body trying desperately to breed with this stud, despite its inability to follow through.
“I blame you for this,” Naruto grunted to Flora, taking enjoyment out of the feeling of Miria’s inner walls squeezing around him. “Making all those innuendos, and teasing, it all lead to this!” He’s seriously beginning to think Flora was trying to pimp him out to other hybrids!
“You didn't seem to mind at the time,” his girlfriend giggled an impish giggle. “And you’re not complaining about fucking Number 6, here.” she pointed out with a cat-like smile.
When the flow of his seed ebbed away, Naruto finally pulled out of Miria, much to the pale-brunette’s disappointment and allowed the woman to fall flat on his mattress. That felt so good…
Naruto shrugged as Flora wasn’t wrong. He didn't put up much of a protest when it came to fucking the woman. She was attractive looking and he could feel jealousy emitting from her whenever he and Flora flirted and lovingly embraced each other. He was a sucker for tough women, too.
Giggling Flora leaned against her hubby and rested her chin on his shoulder, “So? How was he, Miria?” she asked; the woman was genuinely curious as to what she thought about the deep, rough pounding the blond had given her.
The woman moaned pathetically and slowly rolled onto her side. “Sooo goood…” Miria weakly gurgled with flushed cheeks. That boy was definitely a keeper. She was even more jealous of Flora now!
“I can share him, if you want?” Flora offered.
“Oi!” Naruto looked at his girlfriend with wide eyes and a slightly gaping mouth, “You are pimping me out!” he declared accusingly. He ain’t no gigolo, goddamnit!
“I’ll gladly pay to have more of him…” Miria dreamily said with a genuine ‘I finally got laid and I loved it!’ smile.
“No! No no no. I’m not for sale.” Hearing the thoughtful hum from his girlfriend, Naruto quickly looked at her with wide eyes. “Flora, I may be a mercenary, but there are things I would never do!” Being used by other women like he was an escort is one of them!
Flora just giggled. “Oh calm down, honey. I would never sell your body for money… you’re mine.” she hugged him possessively, “However, I won’t object if my comrades want a piece of you. As you said: we’re only human, and we’re so neglected…”
There’s… 47 of them in total, right? With several trainnes in reserve to replace them if they were to die on the field or Awaken. Yeah, Naruto did not like the implications of that. He’s only human, not a miracle worker!
What was next? He gets pimped out to female Awakened Beings?!

Aaand, of course, one such woman just happened to be hunting the hunter.
Elda the Huntress, former Number 5 of Teresa’s Generation, was the woman in question. Mind you, one could argue that she was every number from 1-6 at some point in her career, before awakening, as the One-Horned Monster incident had shaken things up quite a bit to say the least.
The woman was a shapely one, with wavy, dull-blonde, shoulder-length hair and slightly pointed ears. She was garbed in a dark blue, sleeveless dress with slits running up to the hips and a golden sash, and her eyes were of a light, bluish purple. All-in-all, she was quite the looker.
If she wasn’t mistaken, this ‘Youma Hunter’ was last seen in the town near the border of Toulouse and Mucha. What was it called again… Wem…? Rumor had it that he was also banging a warrior of the current generation. That was interesting; most people wouldn’t touch a ‘silver-eyed witch’ with a ten-foot pole, though there was also the rumor that he was packing what might as well be one. If the claims of this being unable to walk after a good night’s rest are to be believed the young man was either well-endowed or had some ungodly stamina.
Well, if he did turn out to be a threat, then maybe she could have some fun with him before devouring his innards?.Either way, finding this young man and determining how big of a threat he was to those like her were her first two priorities. The fact that he was not tied to the Organization and didn’t have to follow their rules made him quite the wildcard - unpredictable and thus dangerous if left unchecked.
Then, Elda perked up and saw something in the distance. “Oh, hello...” she chirped as a small caravan came into view. That would do wonders in cutting her trip shorter.
Granted, she could fly, but her yoki levels would make the woman a damn beacon for any nearby warriors. It would be best to stay low and travel the old-fashioned way… at least for now.
----
The next morning, back with Naruto, the naked young man mumbled incoherently as he woke up, a pair of familiar naked beauties were using his chest as a pillow. Naruto also realised he had his hands on their asses, grabbing a handful of asscheek and he absalutely loved how firm and toned those supple pieces of ass were. He leaned up to look down at his girlfriend and Miria and found the two of them with peaceful smiles on their lips.
He grinned in satisfaction and gave them both a peck on the forehead.
The two mewled cutely and their eyes fluttered. Flora grinned widely, while Miria’s expression turned to one of confusion, then shock as she turned beet red and started sputtering incoherently in sheer embarrassment - trying and utterly failing to demand he tell her what happened.
Naruto chuckled at that. “You’re so cute~!”
That didn’t help, as Miria only blushed harder.
“I’ll tell you what happened,” Flora started with an cat-like smile, “He fucked us and fucked us good~” she cooed, before leaning up to give her man a loving peck on the cheek.
Now, poor Miria was only more embarrassed, but nodded dumbly in understanding. Apparently, he literally fucked her stupid, last night, as it took a while for the memories of that event to come back to her. She started fidgeting, unable to believe what she’d done, but not regretting it for even a second.
“I have to admit, she is rather gifted in the chest area.” Naruto admitted with a sheepish chuckle.
Miria averted her gaze shyly, but accepted the compliment. Though, one question was prodding at her mind. “What age are you?”
Naruto shrugged, “I’m 15.” he answered.
Miria sighed in relief. “Not jailbait, then… that’s good.”
Flora giggled at that. “Would it really matter if he was? We abide by a very different set of rules than anyone else, y’know.”
“You need to let loose every once in a while, you only live once after all. If you keep things bottled up it will only hinder you in the end.” Naruto said to the sandy-brunette. As much as the thought would have turned off so many other people, the idea of a much older woman seducing a young man several years their junior was kinda hot.
Huh… that’s exactly his relationship with Flora now that he thought about it. That woman is a decade and a half older than he is. So he technically is jailbait if one was to really think about it. He kept that thought to himself though.
Miria blushed again and shyly averted her gaze. Truth be told, she’d love to cut loose, but couldn’t as long as the Organization was breathing down her neck.
“Well, that’s easy to solve!” Flora said with a chirp and a smile. “You can cut loose with my boyfriend~”
Naruto was tempted to roll his eyes in amused exasperation at that. Then he looked at Miria and saw she was really contemplating on that offer.
He felt his brow twitch.
What did she think he was? An escort?!

Several miles outside of town.
Sage Mode was useful in a number of ways. While you needed to have an extreme amount of chakra to even use it, the benefits it gave was worth it. It did have its weak points though; one of them being exhausted once the nature chakra is used up. It was good for keeping under the radar, since the unique chakra made the user become ‘one’ with nature. In essence, it was extremely hard to find - let alone fight - someone who is actively using Sage Mode.
Only those who were trained in the usage of Sage Mode can detect another Sage.
Of course, the person who was tracking Naruto was a Sage.
“He’s not moving.”
“Of course not, the lad’s been movin’ for the past three weeks!”
“He needs ta’ rest y’know!”
Correction, the people who were tracking Naruto are Sages. Of course, they were all fused together, and since they were far away all three of them appeared as one person to Naruto’s senses when he went into Sage Mode. Had the blond focused a little more on them, he would have noticed the other two.
There was a heavy sigh. “I know that, Boss, Ma’am. Still, I appreciate you two going out of your way to help me.”
“It’s fine, lad. We’re old, but we’re not that old ta help out an old summoner!”
“Heh… old…” a piece of metal was brought up, and the man’s reflection was seen.
The man looking back had a wart on the left side of his nose and a mane of long and spiky white hair tied back into a ponytail, with two shoulder-length bangs framing his face. A red line was under his eyes which extended further down his face. His nose was particularly big with gains warts, and as he opened his mouth the reflection showed sharp teeth. He also had a goatee, and toad-like eyes. His face was marred by cracks, and the sclera of his eyes were black instead of white. The horned forehead protector he wore had a large crack on it too.
He sighed and put the piece of metal away. “Old… yeah, I suppose I am now.”
The Impure World Resurrection. Never in his wildest dreams did he think a failure like himself would be the subject to such a technique. Well, there was no need to dwell on something like this. He’ll continue to keep watch on the kid until the time is needed. He’s pretty sure the brat knows he’s there, but hasn’t gone out of his way to find him.
Yet.
Oh boy, he was both dreading and looking forward to seeing Naruto again when the time is right… But until then he will continue to watch from a distance. At least he can keep track of him in Sage Mode, as much as he disliked using it the man had to admit, it was useful in tracking and sensing.

Back with Naruto, several hours later.
The town he and Flora were in was called Lydd. That was what Naruto had learned from Miria. It was the closest town to the border between Lautrec and Mucha. Apart from that, Naruto and Flora learned another reason why Miria was in Lydd - and it had nothing to do with Naruto.
Apparently, there were two warriors who are on the run. No one knows what happened, but the two had gone missing after they had to do a joint mission. Miria was tight lipped on the matter but it was pretty obvious to Naruto that she knew them both. And knew more than she was letting on. As much as he wanted to know more, Naruto didn't delve any further into the matter. And as much as he wanted to help out, the blond knew it didn't concern him, so he dropped it then and there.
While Naruto, Flora and Miria were seated around a table, just lazing around Naruto was asking Miria for the latest events and rumours. Just because he wasn’t going to talk about those missing warriors, didn't mean he couldn’t ask for any other rumours and the like.
“Have you heard of anything else, lately?” He asked the sandy-brunette.
Miria frowned thoughtfully and shrugged, “There’s a rumour that Mount Zakol is haunted. Many people who go near it tend to go missing. Those who manage to return tell tales of hearing the wind carrying the screams of people.” she shrugged and rolled her eyes. “I am not one for superstition, but I do know that warriors had gone missing when they delved close to Mount Zakol. I would stay away from there.”
That peaked his interest. Mount Zakol, huh?
“I see.” Naruto rubbed his chin thoughtfully, “Since this is the first time I’ve ever been in Lautrec, where is Mount Zakol from here?” he asked her. He wanted to know exactly where it is, how far of a walk it will be, just in case.
Miria gave him a concerned look for several moments, before taking a breath and answering. “Mount Zakol is located on a mountain, near the city of Hanel. Hanel and Mount Zakol is to the North West of here. It’s a three week journey from here.”
“You’re not thinking of going there, are you?” Flora asked with genuine worry.
“As I said: it’s the first time I’ve ever been in Lautrec. If Mount Zakol is a place to stay away from, then I want to know where it is, just so I know where to avoid it.” He was planning on going there, soon. Hanel, not Zakol.
“I see,” Miria was relieved to hear that. “Is there anything else you want to know?”
“Yeah, I’m a little interested in rumours. Have you heard of anything interesting happening?”
Miria blinked at that. Rumours, eh? She furrowed her brow in thought and quirked her head to the side. “There was a rumour of some strange activity in Alphonse, the Northern Quadrant to This World. The Organization had sent Numbers 7, 12, 16, and 33 on over to investigate.”
Naruto blinked in surprise. “Lucia? I thought her mission was to investigate a rumour of a Voracious Eater in Rabona.”
“I suppose she was reassigned at the last second?” Miria shrugged. “Though not common, it still happens every now and then.” Over the course of her own career, it had happened to Miria five times or so.
“It does happen. I got reassigned quite a few times.” Flora said, though that was for many, many different reasons. Those bandits were there by sheer coincidence! No one was able to prove it was her that murdered them! And besides they were torn apart by youma, and most definitely not her.
“Being a mercenary for hire, there were times when I was reassigned to do something else entirely.” Naruto sighed with a shake of his head. He believed the women. He sighed again, “So Mount Zakol to the North West has people going missing, and there’s a team heading to Alphonse because of some strange activity there.” Naruto looked at Miria and said, “You’d better prepare yourself. There’s a very good chance something big is happening in Alphonse and you might find yourself reassigned to go there.”
“Surely you’re joking?”
Naruto shook his head negatively, “Unfortunately, I’m not. With those Voracious Eaters you have to fight along with the common youma, there’s a very good chance something big is happening in the North.”
“Naruto knows what the Voracious Eaters really are, by the way, Miria.” Flora told the woman. “He even knows what will happen to us once we reach our limit as well.”
Miria was visibly surprised to hear that, looking at Naruto with her eyes wide in shock. He knew and… and still did those things with her, last night? Miria cleared her throat and regained her composure. “Quite the man you’ve found, there, then,” she said, addressing her colleague with a smile. “I’m admittedly jealous.”
Flora giggled happily at that. If there’s one thing she’s happy about, it’s that she managed to get her hands on him first. While trying to not look embarrassed Naruto cleared his throat. It didn't work since Flora just giggled at him and gave her man a peck on the cheek.
“I’m still up for sharing him~”
“I’m not...a boytoy!” Naruto stressed.
“I know,” Flora giggled. “You’re my hubby~!”
Miria and Naruto blinked at that. Though only Naruto knew what that meant. “Um… Flora… I’m not a hubby.”
Flora looked at him confused. “What do you mean? We’re boyfriend and girlfriend, right? So, that makes you my hubby, right?”
“N-No… Flora, hubby is an abbreviation of husband,” he clarified, blushing heavily.
Flora blushed just as heavily at that. “Oh… uh… oops?” She chuckled awkwardly. “Well, I certainly wouldn’t mind…” The Number 8 paused and cleared her throat, averting her gaze upon realizing she’d said that out loud, now she felt even more embarrassed!
“I’m sure you wouldn’t,” he chuckled, pulling her into a one-armed hug. The poor woman only blushed harder, now feeling lightheaded. Luckily only the three of them were around in the tavern right now. Seems everyone liked to stay away from the Silver Eyed Witches whenever they’re in town. So, Naruto moved Flora onto his lap and wrapped his arms around her stomach. “We’ll talk about that later~!”
Aaand, with that, she was out like a light.
Naruto chuckled warmly, giving Flora a peck on the cheek. “Poor thing,” he said. “Reminds me of a girl back home.” He then turned to Miria and asked, “so… who are these missing warriors?”
While it didn't concern him in any way, Naruto figured it wouldn’t hurt to keep an eye and ear out for them on the road. And Miria was rather tight lipped on the matter, still, it wouldn’t help to keep an eye out.
“Why do you want to know?” the sandy-brunette asked.
Naruto shrugged. “If I’m going to be on the road, I’d might as well keep an eye out for them. I won’t turn them in, but I can let them know they’re being looked for.”
Miria pursed her lips, thinking long and hard about her answer. She eventually let out a sigh, “I suppose it wouldn’t hurt; they’re Numbers 4 and 47. Their names are Ophelia and Clare. Ophelia has platinum-blonde hair, in a braided ponytail and pointed ears - she’s rather sadistic and is rumoured to have killed humans. Clare has short pale blonde hair,” Miria held her hand to the sides of her head to show how short Number 47’s hair was, “and travels with a young boy a few years younger than you. The boy was found separated from her, though. No word yet on what happened to him.”
Naruto nodded thoughtfully at that before looking at Miria opposite him. “Do you know what their symbols are? Knowing them would help me out on identifying them.”
Miria nodded in acknowledgement. “I do. Do you have a quill and paper or me to write on?”
At her question Naruto just gave the woman a flat look, silently telling her ‘Do I look like I have those on me?’.
“Oh, right…” Miria said in realization. She felt a bit dumb now. “I’ll see if I can borrow them from someone.”
“I’m sure you can ask the owner of this establishment.” Naruto said, gesturing to the tavern they were in. “He should be around somewhere. And if not… well… there’s nothing stopping you from borrowing one.”
Miria hummed thoughtfully at that; the kid in front of her was right. There was nothing to stop her from borrowing a quill and paper. “Very true. I will go and see if I can go procure a quill and paper to write the symbols with.”
With that Phantom Miria got up from her chair and went to find herself a quill and paper, leaving Naruto and the unconscious Flora by themselves. He needed to do something about their position, now that he thought about it. The warmth of her nice ass against his lap had a fairly predictable effect on him and the angle his joystick found itself in proved… uncomfortable. He needed to get it adjusted less it get anymore uncomfortable for him. So that’s that he did to the best of his ability, without trying to disrupt his girl.
Flora mumbled cutely before adjusting herself with a mewl, drawing a chuckle from her man.
Then, Miria popped out out of nowhere with a piece of paper in hand. Then she handed it to Naruto, while ignoring the still unconscious Flora who was currently snuggling up against the blond.
“Thank you,” Naruto took the paper and looked at the symbols on it. Then he nodded and put it in his trouser pocket.
“What do you plan on doing next?” Miria asked as she took her seat once more. Her question prompted a shrug out of Naruto.
“I don’t know. I was just planning on wandering around for a bit. See the sights. Kill any youma I happened to come across.” he answered honestly. Naruto had no set destination in mind; he still doesn’t, but now he has Flora with him. “I’m going to be staying here for a bit. Walking for three weeks with little breaks in between, just makes me want to lie down somewhere and rest for as long as I can.”
Miria perked up at that. “Oh? Does that mean you’re staying here for a few days then?”
Naruto shrugged. “Around that amount of time, yes.” Three seemed reasonable… “Not sure what I’ll do afterwards, though; I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it.”
“Such a lovely wedding,” Flora mumbled in her sleep, letting loose a cute giggle. “Oh, Naruto~!”
Both Naruto and Miria turned bright red in an instant upon hearing that. They then looked at each other with the former letting out a sheepish laugh. “Seems she’s having a...nice dream?”
“Quite…” Miria muttered.
Well, this got awkward real fast. Though, as he took in Miria’s appearance, Naruto realised the woman in front of him was the stuck up type and that she liked to remain in control of herself.
He saw an opportunity to tease her. They were so much fun to tease.
“I see you’re looking at Flora with jealousy,” Naruto said to the woman with a serious look on his face, “Do you want to sit on my lap as well?” he asked, quirking his head to the side with curiosity.
Poor Miria sputtered incoherently, trying and spectacularly failing to deny it.
Naruto couldn’t hold in the hearty chuckle if his life depended on it. He decided to tease her some more.
“If you want...you can go right on ahead and sit on my other leg and snuggle against me. Flora’s not going to mind.” He told her, wiggling his eyebrows teasingly at the woman. The woman woman kept sputtering as her face flushed with embarrassment. Then she saw the teasing grin on his face, prompting her to blink owlishly for a moment, before burying her face into her hands with an embarrassed groan.
“Sorry but teasing you is just too easy.” he chuckled with a smile. “I will be here for a few days, so, you have plenty of time to get to know me if you want.”
“S-sounds like a plan,” Miria chirped.
If he’s capable of fighting several youma by himself, then may be it will be a good idea to see how he fairs against a warrior? Yes. That seems like a good idea. Maybe she can rope Flora into it as well...
The sound of flesh slamming into flesh filled Naruto and Flora’s room, half-an-hour later, as the strapping young lad pounded a naked and flustered Miria into the bed from behind. The Number 6 wailed pleasurably into a pillow, not quite knowing or caring how exactly she got into this situation in the first place.
After their conversation in the bar started getting a bit awkward, she suggested they take it somewhere private and the three of them relocated to the room that Naruto and Flora had booked. Then, one thing lead to another and now…
Mira wailed as a wave of pleasure wracked her to the very core, her sexual juices gushing all over and coating Naruto’s balls as she came hard. Her whole body twitched as she rode out her orgasm.
“Oh-ho, my~!” Flora giggled. “Someone seems to like it more than she was letting on~!” She then crawled on up to her man and growled sexily into his ear. “Go on, keep it up! Show her those delicious sensations that only a man can make her feel~!”
His girlfriend goading him combined with Miria’s fluttering walls squeezing his shaft sent him flying over the edge as Naruto let loose a throaty grunt. Miria shuddered at the sensation of his wet heat flooding her loins. It truly was every bit as marvelous as she’d heard!

Correction, the people who were tracking Naruto are Sages. Of course, they were all fused together, and since they were far away all three of them appeared as one person to Naruto’s senses when he went into Sage Mode. Had the blond focused a little more on them, he would have noticed the other two.
There was a heavy sigh. “I know that, Boss, Ma’am. Still, I appreciate you two going out of your way to help me.”
“It’s fine, lad. We’re old, but we’re not that old ta help out an old summoner!”
“Heh… old…” a piece of metal was brought up, and the man’s reflection was seen.
The man looking back had a wart on the left side of his nose and a mane of long and spiky white hair tied back into a ponytail, with two shoulder-length bangs framing his face. A red line was under his eyes which extended further down his face. His nose was particularly big with gains warts, and as he opened his mouth the reflection showed sharp teeth. He also had a goatee, and toad-like eyes. His face was marred by cracks, and the sclera of his eyes were black instead of white. The horned forehead protector he wore had a large crack on it too.
He sighed and put the piece of metal away. “Old… yeah, I suppose I am now.”
The Impure World Resurrection. Never in his wildest dreams did he think a failure like himself would be the subject to such a technique. Well, there was no need to dwell on something like this. He’ll continue to keep watch on the kid until the time is needed. He’s pretty sure the brat knows he’s there, but hasn’t gone out of his way to find him.
Yet.
Oh boy, he was both dreading and looking forward to seeing Naruto again when the time is right… But until then he will continue to watch from a distance. At least he can keep track of him in Sage Mode, as much as he disliked using it the man had to admit, it was useful in tracking and sensing.

Back with Naruto, several hours later.
The town he and Flora were in was called Lydd. That was what Naruto had learned from Miria. It was the closest town to the border between Lautrec and Mucha. Apart from that, Naruto and Flora learned another reason why Miria was in Lydd - and it had nothing to do with Naruto.
Apparently, there were two warriors who are on the run. No one knows what happened, but the two had gone missing after they had to do a joint mission. Miria was tight lipped on the matter but it was pretty obvious to Naruto that she knew them both. And knew more than she was letting on. As much as he wanted to know more, Naruto didn't delve any further into the matter. And as much as he wanted to help out, the blond knew it didn't concern him, so he dropped it then and there.
While Naruto, Flora and Miria were seated around a table, just lazing around Naruto was asking Miria for the latest events and rumours. Just because he wasn’t going to talk about those missing warriors, didn't mean he couldn’t ask for any other rumours and the like.
“Have you heard of anything else, lately?” He asked the sandy-brunette.
Miria frowned thoughtfully and shrugged, “There’s a rumour that Mount Zakol is haunted. Many people who go near it tend to go missing. Those who manage to return tell tales of hearing the wind carrying the screams of people.” she shrugged and rolled her eyes. “I am not one for superstition, but I do know that warriors had gone missing when they delved close to Mount Zakol. I would stay away from there.”
That peaked his interest. Mount Zakol, huh?
“I see.” Naruto rubbed his chin thoughtfully, “Since this is the first time I’ve ever been in Lautrec, where is Mount Zakol from here?” he asked her. He wanted to know exactly where it is, how far of a walk it will be, just in case.
Miria gave him a concerned look for several moments, before taking a breath and answering. “Mount Zakol is located on a mountain, near the city of Hanel. Hanel and Mount Zakol is to the North West of here. It’s a three week journey from here.”
“You’re not thinking of going there, are you?” Flora asked with genuine worry.
“As I said: it’s the first time I’ve ever been in Lautrec. If Mount Zakol is a place to stay away from, then I want to know where it is, just so I know where to avoid it.” He was planning on going there, soon. Hanel, not Zakol.
“I see,” Miria was relieved to hear that. “Is there anything else you want to know?”
“Yeah, I’m a little interested in rumours. Have you heard of anything interesting happening?”
Miria blinked at that. Rumours, eh? She furrowed her brow in thought and quirked her head to the side. “There was a rumour of some strange activity in Alphonse, the Northern Quadrant to This World. The Organization had sent Numbers 7, 12, 16, and 33 on over to investigate.”
Naruto blinked in surprise. “Lucia? I thought her mission was to investigate a rumour of a Voracious Eater in Rabona.”
“I suppose she was reassigned at the last second?” Miria shrugged. “Though not common, it still happens every now and then.” Over the course of her own career, it had happened to Miria five times or so.
“It does happen. I got reassigned quite a few times.” Flora said, though that was for many, many different reasons. Those bandits were there by sheer coincidence! No one was able to prove it was her that murdered them! And besides they were torn apart by youma, and most definitely not her.
“Being a mercenary for hire, there were times when I was reassigned to do something else entirely.” Naruto sighed with a shake of his head. He believed the women. He sighed again, “So Mount Zakol to the North West has people going missing, and there’s a team heading to Alphonse because of some strange activity there.” Naruto looked at Miria and said, “You’d better prepare yourself. There’s a very good chance something big is happening in Alphonse and you might find yourself reassigned to go there.”
“Surely you’re joking?”
Naruto shook his head negatively, “Unfortunately, I’m not. With those Voracious Eaters you have to fight along with the common youma, there’s a very good chance something big is happening in the North.”
“Naruto knows what the Voracious Eaters really are, by the way, Miria.” Flora told the woman. “He even knows what will happen to us once we reach our limit as well.”
Miria was visibly surprised to hear that, looking at Naruto with her eyes wide in shock. He knew and… and still did those things with her, last night? Miria cleared her throat and regained her composure. “Quite the man you’ve found, there, then,” she said, addressing her colleague with a smile. “I’m admittedly jealous.”
Flora giggled happily at that. If there’s one thing she’s happy about, it’s that she managed to get her hands on him first. While trying to not look embarrassed Naruto cleared his throat. It didn't work since Flora just giggled at him and gave her man a peck on the cheek.
“I’m still up for sharing him~”
“I’m not...a boytoy!” Naruto stressed.
“I know,” Flora giggled. “You’re my hubby~!”
Miria and Naruto blinked at that. Though only Naruto knew what that meant. “Um… Flora… I’m not a hubby.”
Flora looked at him confused. “What do you mean? We’re boyfriend and girlfriend, right? So, that makes you my hubby, right?”
“N-No… Flora, hubby is an abbreviation of husband,” he clarified, blushing heavily.
Flora blushed just as heavily at that. “Oh… uh… oops?” She chuckled awkwardly. “Well, I certainly wouldn’t mind…” The Number 8 paused and cleared her throat, averting her gaze upon realizing she’d said that out loud, now she felt even more embarrassed!
“I’m sure you wouldn’t,” he chuckled, pulling her into a one-armed hug. The poor woman only blushed harder, now feeling lightheaded. Luckily only the three of them were around in the tavern right now. Seems everyone liked to stay away from the Silver Eyed Witches whenever they’re in town. So, Naruto moved Flora onto his lap and wrapped his arms around her stomach. “We’ll talk about that later~!”
Aaand, with that, she was out like a light.
Naruto chuckled warmly, giving Flora a peck on the cheek. “Poor thing,” he said. “Reminds me of a girl back home.” He then turned to Miria and asked, “so… who are these missing warriors?”
While it didn't concern him in any way, Naruto figured it wouldn’t hurt to keep an eye and ear out for them on the road. And Miria was rather tight lipped on the matter, still, it wouldn’t help to keep an eye out.
“Why do you want to know?” the sandy-brunette asked.
Naruto shrugged. “If I’m going to be on the road, I’d might as well keep an eye out for them. I won’t turn them in, but I can let them know they’re being looked for.”
Miria pursed her lips, thinking long and hard about her answer. She eventually let out a sigh, “I suppose it wouldn’t hurt; they’re Numbers 4 and 47. Their names are Ophelia and Clare. Ophelia has platinum-blonde hair, in a braided ponytail and pointed ears - she’s rather sadistic and is rumoured to have killed humans. Clare has short pale blonde hair,” Miria held her hand to the sides of her head to show how short Number 47’s hair was, “and travels with a young boy a few years younger than you. The boy was found separated from her, though. No word yet on what happened to him.”
Naruto nodded thoughtfully at that before looking at Miria opposite him. “Do you know what their symbols are? Knowing them would help me out on identifying them.”
Miria nodded in acknowledgement. “I do. Do you have a quill and paper or me to write on?”
At her question Naruto just gave the woman a flat look, silently telling her ‘Do I look like I have those on me?’.
“Oh, right…” Miria said in realization. She felt a bit dumb now. “I’ll see if I can borrow them from someone.”
“I’m sure you can ask the owner of this establishment.” Naruto said, gesturing to the tavern they were in. “He should be around somewhere. And if not… well… there’s nothing stopping you from borrowing one.”
Miria hummed thoughtfully at that; the kid in front of her was right. There was nothing to stop her from borrowing a quill and paper. “Very true. I will go and see if I can go procure a quill and paper to write the symbols with.”
With that Phantom Miria got up from her chair and went to find herself a quill and paper, leaving Naruto and the unconscious Flora by themselves. He needed to do something about their position, now that he thought about it. The warmth of her nice ass against his lap had a fairly predictable effect on him and the angle his joystick found itself in proved… uncomfortable. He needed to get it adjusted less it get anymore uncomfortable for him. So that’s that he did to the best of his ability, without trying to disrupt his girl.
Flora mumbled cutely before adjusting herself with a mewl, drawing a chuckle from her man.
Then, Miria popped out out of nowhere with a piece of paper in hand. Then she handed it to Naruto, while ignoring the still unconscious Flora who was currently snuggling up against the blond.
“Thank you,” Naruto took the paper and looked at the symbols on it. Then he nodded and put it in his trouser pocket.
“What do you plan on doing next?” Miria asked as she took her seat once more. Her question prompted a shrug out of Naruto.
“I don’t know. I was just planning on wandering around for a bit. See the sights. Kill any youma I happened to come across.” he answered honestly. Naruto had no set destination in mind; he still doesn’t, but now he has Flora with him. “I’m going to be staying here for a bit. Walking for three weeks with little breaks in between, just makes me want to lie down somewhere and rest for as long as I can.”
Miria perked up at that. “Oh? Does that mean you’re staying here for a few days then?”
Naruto shrugged. “Around that amount of time, yes.” Three seemed reasonable… “Not sure what I’ll do afterwards, though; I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it.”
“Such a lovely wedding,” Flora mumbled in her sleep, letting loose a cute giggle. “Oh, Naruto~!”
Both Naruto and Miria turned bright red in an instant upon hearing that. They then looked at each other with the former letting out a sheepish laugh. “Seems she’s having a...nice dream?”
“Quite…” Miria muttered.
Well, this got awkward real fast. Though, as he took in Miria’s appearance, Naruto realised the woman in front of him was the stuck up type and that she liked to remain in control of herself.
He saw an opportunity to tease her. They were so much fun to tease.
“I see you’re looking at Flora with jealousy,” Naruto said to the woman with a serious look on his face, “Do you want to sit on my lap as well?” he asked, quirking his head to the side with curiosity.
Poor Miria sputtered incoherently, trying and spectacularly failing to deny it.
Naruto couldn’t hold in the hearty chuckle if his life depended on it. He decided to tease her some more.
“If you want...you can go right on ahead and sit on my other leg and snuggle against me. Flora’s not going to mind.” He told her, wiggling his eyebrows teasingly at the woman. The woman woman kept sputtering as her face flushed with embarrassment. Then she saw the teasing grin on his face, prompting her to blink owlishly for a moment, before burying her face into her hands with an embarrassed groan.
“Sorry but teasing you is just too easy.” he chuckled with a smile. “I will be here for a few days, so, you have plenty of time to get to know me if you want.”
“S-sounds like a plan,” Miria chirped.
If he’s capable of fighting several youma by himself, then may be it will be a good idea to see how he fairs against a warrior? Yes. That seems like a good idea. Maybe she can rope Flora into it as well...
