Chapter 1: Encounter in the rain

In the pouring rain, a young man with spiky blonde hair was seen walking alone. It can be seen from the young man's eye bags are very thick, and it can be ascertained that the young man is very tired.

' Gaki, you better take a day off after this, your body definitely won't be able to bear this heavy burden.'

'For the size of a fox, you're quite considerate, huh... Kurama.'

' If you die after this, don't blame me.'

'Yeah-yes furball, I know. I will rest after this.'

In the middle of the trip, the young man was seen talking to his only best friend. His face changed following the flow of the young man's conversation.

' You feel it?' Asked the fox to make sure something was on the host.

'Yes, I don't know what he's doing in the pouring rain without an umbrella.' Pause for a moment. 'But I doubt that angels can get sick just from the rain.' He continued then walked closer to the angel.

The young man walked closer to the angel girl, of course, the angel's words were not just a metaphorical figure. In fact, the girl is indeed an angel. Her straight, wavy hair was pale yellow in color and looked smooth and shiny, even though it was wet in the rain. Having a face that is coveted by many womenfolk, it can be concluded that this angel is very beautiful.

Even so, Naruto had no intention of doing anything to the angel girl and didn't think he would do anything in the future. They were just neighbors, and Naruto never had a chance to talk to her, and never intended to get involved with her.

' Then why did you approach him?' Kurama asked curiously.

'Don't ask me damn it! This leg moves by itself.' Reply to the young man with an angry tone.

It's raining very hard today, everyone who has just finished doing their activities is running to go back to their respective homes, while this angel sits pensively on a lonely garden swing, because it's already dark and thick clouds can be seen covering the sky today.

Naruto couldn't understand why he was there without an umbrella and letting himself get drenched in the rain. It also seemed that he wasn't waiting for anyone, seen by how wet the girl's body was, and he also didn't deny the fact that his body was now drenched in rainwater.

As the distance between the two of them wore away, the girl started to look up, her face pale as if it lacked pigment. When Naruto was getting ready to hand over the umbrella he had brought, he saw that the girl's face was filled with tears but he managed to cover it with the heavy rain that flushed the girl.

' Maybe you can cover your tears, but the look in your eyes can't lie to me.' he thought to himself.

He really didn't have any ulterior motives to get involved with her at all, but his late mother would be very angry if she allowed the angel girl in front of her to have such a sad look, and Naruto didn't want to imagine himself being beaten up by her late mother, even Kurama didn't want to imagine that.

"What are you doing here?"

Naruto spoke in a hushed tone, indicating he had no intention other than to help the angel girl. The girl shook her head slowly and looked at the young man. Feeling approached by a stranger who had absolutely no relationship with her made the girl a little wary, as seen from the look in her eyes that seemed to narrow.

"Uzumaki-san. Is there anything you want from me?"

' Ah, he still calls my clan' thought Naruto. Even though when he first introduced himself as a neighbor, he had told the girl to just call her name. They had met before, but they were still strangers. Naturally, the girl would look wary when spoken to. He might not want to interact with someone of the opposite sex, the girl might think the boy has ulterior motives.
