As Naruto clutched the plush toy given to him by Seolhwa, Kim Dokja couldn't help but be curious about the child's origins. "Naruto," he began gently, "can you tell us why and how you ended up here?"

Naruto's confusion was evident, and he shifted uncomfortably on the bed. He glanced at Kim Dokja, a mixture of unease and curiosity in his eyes. However, he didn't know how to explain his situation. The world he knew had become a distant memory, and he wasn't sure how to convey what had happened.

Feeling the weight of his silence, Naruto turned inward, seeking guidance from the presence that resided within him - Kurama, the Nine-Tails Fox. He closed his eyes briefly, communicating with the ancient and wise creature who had been his constant companion.

Kurama's deep voice echoed in Naruto's mind. "Tell them that you don't know how you reached this place," Kurama advised. "Explain that in your world, a strange void opened up, and it pulled you into this unfamiliar place."

Naruto nodded internally, grateful for Kurama's guidance. He opened his eyes and looked at Kim Dokja, his expression one of uncertainty. "I... I don't really know," he began slowly, his voice soft and hesitant. "In my Village, there was this empty void that suddenly appeared. It was like a whirlpool, and before I knew it, I was sucked into it. Next thing I knew, I woke up here."

Kim Dokja and his companions listened intently, absorbing Naruto's words. They had no reason to doubt the child's sincerity, and his story only added to the mystery surrounding his presence in their world.

After a moment of contemplation, Naruto asked, "Where is this place? What's it called?"

Lee Gilyoung, a member of Kim Dokja's group, exchanged glances with Shin Yoosung, both of them puzzled by Naruto's lack of knowledge about their world. Finally, Lee Gilyoung spoke up. "You're in Korea," he replied. "This is a country on the Asian continent."

Naruto's eyes widened in bewilderment. The name "Korea" meant nothing to him, and the concept of being in a different country on the Asian continent was beyond his comprehension. It was as if he had been plucked from his world and dropped into a place that was entirely foreign to him.

Kim Dokja and his companions exchanged concerned glances. They could see that Naruto was struggling to make sense of his new surroundings, and it was evident that his journey had taken him far from the world he once knew.

As Naruto told his story with Kim Dokja and his companions, their reactions varied, each revealing their unique perspectives.

Yoo Joonghyuk, usually stoic, furrowed his brows in deep contemplation. "An empty void that pulled you in? This sounds like an anomaly we've encountered before," he mused, his eyes narrowing in thought. "But the fact that it transported you to another continent is truly unprecedented."

Han Sooyoung, known for her adventurous spirit, chimed in with a hint of excitement. "Imagine the possibilities," she said with a mischievous glint in her eye. "A world-hopping adventure with a child who has no idea where he is! This is like something out of happens in novels."

Kim Dokja himself wore a thoughtful expression as he considered Naruto's words. "It's clear that Naruto is far from his home," he remarked softly. "We'll have to help him adjust to this new reality and, hopefully, find a way to get him back home."

Meanwhile, Lee Gilyoung and Shin Yoosung shared a sympathetic glance. They could see the confusion in Naruto's eyes and understood the gravity of his situation. Lee Gilyoung leaned closer to Naruto and said, "Don't worry, Naruto. We'll do our best to help you."

Shin Yoosung added with a reassuring smile, "You're safe here with us. We'll figure out how to get you back to your world."

Naruto, still clutching the plush toy, nodded slowly. He might not have understood the full extent of his predicament, but he could sense that these strangers were genuinely trying to help him. In this strange new world, amidst a group of individuals with their own quirks and abilities.
As the conversation continued, a sudden rumble emanated from Naruto's stomach, breaking the solemn atmosphere. His eyes widened in embarrassment, and his adorable baby face turned a bright shade of red. His small hands clutched his stomach as if trying to silence the unexpected interruption.

The members of Kim Dokja's group exchanged glances, their earlier serious expressions giving way to amusement. Han Sooyoung couldn't help but chuckle, a playful grin forming on her face. "Looks like someone's hungry," she teased, her laughter contagious.

Yoo Joonghyuk, known for his stoicism, cracked a rare smile, which only added to Naruto's embarrassment. "I suppose it's time for a meal," he remarked, his voice laced with humor.

Dokja, too, couldn't contain a soft laugh. He reached out and ruffled Naruto's hair gently. "Don't worry, Naruto," he reassured the blushing child. "We all get hungry. Let's go grab something to eat."

Naruto's cheeks remained rosy, but he offered a shy smile in return, his embarrassment gradually fading. He had stumbled into a world filled with strangers, but their kindness and understanding made him feel a sense of belonging, despite the odd circumstances.

Naruto's journey through this strange world was taking its toll on the young child. As he attempted to stand up from the bed and make his way to the kitchen, his legs felt wobbly, and dizziness washed over him. His energy had been nearly depleted by the healing process, and his small body struggled to keep up with his determination.

Just as Naruto's knees buckled and he began to sway forward, Kim Dokja's quick reflexes came to the rescue. He caught Naruto in his arms and gently steadied the child. Concern filled his eyes as he asked, "Are you okay, Naruto?"

Naruto, feeling a sense of safety in Dokja's presence, nodded weakly. "I'm okay," he replied, his voice barely above a whisper. "I'm just... really tired."

With time and rest, Naruto's strength began to return. Slowly, he stood up and, instinctively, reached out to grasp Dokja's hand for support. He didn't fully understand why, but being near Dokja made him feel strangely comforted, like he had found a guardian in this unfamiliar world.

They made their way to the kitchen together, and upon arriving, they encountered a bit of a predicament. The chairs were far too tall for the diminutive Naruto, who was, after all, a five-year-old in the body of a five-year-old. Kim Dokja, with a soft smile, solved the issue by settling Naruto in his lap.

Naruto couldn't help but find Dokja's actions a bit odd, but it didn't bother him. He was more focused on the delicious food that was served by Yoo Joonghyuk. His eyes widened in amazement as he tasted the flavors, savoring each bite. He even found himself eating vegetables he had previously avoided.

After the meal, Naruto's exhaustion caught up with him. He felt the weight of mental and physical fatigue pressing down on him. His eyelids grew heavy, and he could hardly keep his eyes open.

Kim Dokja, ever the caring host, lifted Naruto in his arms and carried him to a guest room. He tucked Naruto in and whispered a gentle "Goodnight" as the child drifted off to sleep. With Naruto resting peacefully, Kim Dokja returned to his own bed, knowing that the young boy was sleeping and then that their unique journey was just beginning.

As Naruto peacefully slept in the guest room, Kim Dokja couldn't help but reflect on the extraordinary turn of events. He knew that Naruto's presence in their world was no ordinary occurrence, and he was determined to uncover the mysteries surrounding the young boy's journey.

In the dimly lit room, Kim Dokja sat down at his desk and opened a worn notebook. He began jotting down notes about Naruto's story, the strange void, and their group's interactions. This was the beginning of a new chapter in their journey, one that held both challenges and opportunities.

As he continued to write, he couldn't help but wonder about the significance of Naruto's arrival. Was it a mere coincidence, or was there a deeper purpose to this meeting? Kim Dokja's mind raced with questions, and he knew that their adventures were far from over.
