New World

CHAPTER ONE

As soon as the school bell rang signalling the end of classes, the students promptly gathered their belongings and began to make their way out of the classroom. Benedict was no exception, and he too gathered his things before proceeding to the cafe. Once there, he changed his clothes and got ready to start his shift. After completing his work duties, he went home and settled down to complete his homework. Later on, he decided to unwind by watching an episode of Naruto, and before he knew it, he had drifted off to sleep.

As he slowly opened his eyes, he was greeted by a sudden gust of wind and the sweet melodies of chirping birds. As he looked around, he realized that he was surrounded by lush green trees, and he felt somewhat disoriented. He then remembered that he had dozed off while watching his favourite anime, "Naruto." As he stood up, he dusted off his clothes and made his way towards the nearby river. While standing by the river, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a younger version of himself, which made him feel somewhat nostalgic. However, he quickly shook off the feeling and decided to look for some people. After a while, he came across two guards who were speaking in Japanese, a language he couldn't understand. Despite the language barrier, the guards kindly offered to take him to the nearby town of Hokage, where he could hopefully find someone who could help him.

Benedict strolled through the town, flanked by two guards. The vibrant energy of the locals was palpable and Benedict couldn't help but feel a bit intimidated as all eyes were on him. The children were playing, the birds were perched on tree branches, and the people were casually strolling around. The guards eventually led Benedict to the Hokage Tower, a grand building that loomed above the rest. They instructed him to wait outside while they went in to speak with the Hokage. Benedict stood there, taking in his surroundings and trying to quell his nerves.

After a few minutes, the guards emerged from the building and motioned for Benedict to enter. The interior of the tower was dimly lit, with the only source of light coming from flickering candles on the Hokage's desk. In front of Benedict stood an old man, who was scribbling furiously on a massive pile of paperwork. Benedict immediately recognized him as the Hokage, the leader of the village.

The Hokage asked Benedict for his name and where he was from, but Benedict was at a loss for words. Being unable to speak Japanese, he felt helpless until he remembered the translation app on his phone. With the help of his trusty gadget, Benedict was finally able to communicate effectively with the Hokage. The Hokage listened intently as Benedict explained his situation, and then offered to provide him with a place to stay and attend the academy. Benedict was overjoyed and grateful for the Hokage's kindness and couldn't wait to begin his new life in the village.
