Chapter 18 - Chapter 018

Thankfully, if this conversation worked like how he thought it would, then he could just use 'Minato' again to help enroll her.

Or better yet, just skip using a henged clone again.

So Naruto enacted his brilliant plan in order to help her out.

"You see..." the blond drawled out slowly, his eyes boring into Sona's with grim seriousness. "This girl here is actually someone close to me. As a matter of fact, I've mentioned her once to you before, kaichou."

The student council president straightened her spine at this claim, her mind registering his words, quickly recollecting their last conversation. "You mean...?"

With a triumphant grin, Naruto opened his mouth and made his announcement, revealing his brilliant idea. "That's right! This girl right here is my sister; Mio!"

Everyone there fell silent following this exclamation, with the only thing interrupting it being Mio crashing into the ground, face first.

What the hell!?

"So...this is your sister, Uzumaki-san? I must say that it's nice to meet her in person. Tell me, have you been feeling alright since your brother went to check up on you?" Sona asked ,quickly recovering from the blond's words, and pushing her glasses back onto the bridge of her nose.

It nearly fell off of her face due to her shock.

Mio, by now, was just staring owlishly at Sona, trying to understand what the kaichou of Kuoh was talking about.

There was no way she was talking about the battle that happened in the forest northwest of Kuoh Town, right? But what else could she possibly be talking about?

The half-devil looked helplessly at Naruto, asking him without words to give her an idea of what to do.

She saw his eyes widen as he tried to give her signals behind the black-haired girl as to what to do, though she had absolutely no idea what the hell he was trying to say.

She decided to play it safe.

"Thank you for your concern, Sona-san, I'm much better now thanks to my...nii-san." Mio admitted with a flushed face, trying not too fall over due to her embarrassment.

Maria gazed at Mio with interest, filing away a possibility of a fetish, for teasing material for later.

In her humble opinion, she felt that Mio-sama needed to be teased more.

Sona nodded, finally mollified that the rules weren't being broken by the blond and finally allowed them to pass.

Naruto exhaled a sigh of relief at that.

The stern girl was hard to say 'no' to, but he suspected she was like that with most people.

It was only when they moved past the gate, and then moved so far away from it that they couldn't see it anymore, that the shinobi quickly moved closer to his two companions and asked a question that he should have asked before.

"Hey...how come I couldn't sense your presences as devils at all? Hell, Shitori-san didn't suspect a thing about your true identities." Naruto wondered aloud, genuinely curious.

He sensed their use of demonic powers in the forest, but for some reason, he was barely able to sense their presences anymore.

Granted, he wasn't that good a sensor unless he was in Sage Mode, but still, his close proximity should have given them away.

Maria just winked at Naruto. "I have the ability to suppress our presences from others, it's a skill that allowed Mio-sama and I to live for as long as we have while on the run. It isn't perfect, and not too strong either, but unless someone is actively searching for us, they won't be able to tell us apart from an average human."

Naruto just shook his head in amusement at her antics and began walking faster, taking the lead in order to give them a tour of Kuoh Academy.

In the window of the Occult Research Club's main building, Rias Gremory was staring at something outside of the window, focused, intense even.

Her queen moved up to her side and offered her a tea from the tray that she was holding, expectant.

The king thanked her quietly, yet never took her attention away from the window, remaining focused.

Akeno tilted her head at Rias' strange behavior, and decided to follow her line of sight to check on what exactly had her attention.

Her eyes landed on a group of three that was talking animatedly with one another, being led by a teenaged boy with spiky blond hair, slightly tanned skin, and...whisker marks.

Ah...

"Ara ara, it seems like you have your sights set on a little fox, Buchou?" Akeno teased her friend with a small smile hidden behind her hand.

Rias just ignored her and stared hard at the boy, though she quietly acknowledged that he, indeed, kind of looked like a fox with those whiskers.

...Uzumaki Naruto, right?

The blond held himself up high while he walked, not leaving himself in a slouch like most teenaged boys did in their carefree lives. More than that, there was a bright glint in his eyes that spoke of a very positive attitude.
