Bab 4: Chapter 4: Flawless
No one else in the class reacted either. Naruto's preferred method of leaving the class was using the window.
It was like his interactions with the Perverted Trio. Just an everyday occurrence to the class. Although the short topic of naked men and dicks today had made a few of the girls blush.
They also didn't react when seconds after Naruto left, they heard the sound of a large group running towards them.
Naruto had great hearing, so he always knew when people were approaching. When a pissed off football club opened the door roughly, everyone in the class pointed at the window and announced in unison, "Jumped out the window." The football club immediately turned and moved to start the chase that inevitably followed one of Naruto's pranks.
Ten minutes later Naruto was cackling like a maniac. Partly due to his own amusement. His main pranks against a club were meant to make them chase him, but he was more than willing to do several smaller pranks during the chase itself.
That includes trip lines, paint balls, stink pellets, even a few acid pellets designed to eat away clothes. Watching the football club grow even more annoyed throughout the chase was hilarious.
Mainly the cackle was for the entertainment of the spectators watching the chase though. If your going to be chased throughout the entire school, you might as well make it entertaining.
Needless to say, watching fifty kids in various states of dishevelment, from dissolved portions of clothing, covered in pink, orange, and yellow paint, and stinking like a sewer, all chasing after a single kid cackling like an insane character from an anime was an interesting spectacle.
It never failed to make the surrounding students laugh, especially since Naruto had a tendency to mix it up.
The videos of the billiards club with their head shaved and painted to look like billiards balls, the karate club in chicken suits, and the art club painted like clowns still circulated among the students.
Yeah, everyone was eventually a victim of Naruto's pranks, but 99% of the time you just got to laugh at the other victims. It spiced up the school life. Or at least Naruto claimed that.
The chase eventually entered one of the many buildings comprising Kuoh Academy. Naruto was fully entertained by this point, and calling back taunts to the tiring pursuers.
Even with outnumbering him by fifty to one, they still couldn't catch him. Naruto was too fast and agile. At least the numbers made it fun for Naruto.
So he barely reacted in time when he turned the corner. Sensing two people right in his way, Naruto pulled off a desperate spin.
He felt his skin run along the uniform of the closer one, but successfully managed to avoid colliding with her. Oh yeah, Uzumaki. That was totally awesome.
His self praise was abruptly ended when one of his feet slipped and he face planted on the ground. Naruto had always been a rather clumsy person.
Even when he became a bonafide badass he was far from the most graceful ninja. Apparently trying to pull of a spin at full speed at the last moment was a bit beyond his current abilities.
He just laid there for a second as he silently bemoaned his mistake. Yeah, real smooth.
It wouldn't be Naruto though if he didn't immediately bounce back. Within a second he jumped to his feet. He paused for a second as he grasped his spinning head, since he had face planted rather hard.
"Are you okay, Uzumaki-san?" a voice asked as he was trying to recover from his possible concussion.
"Yeah, I'm good. I'm pretty durable. Just give me a second," Naruto muttered. He finally recovered enough to open his eyes to look upon the person he had avoided running into.
The first thing he saw was red. Acting without a moment of thought, Naruto stepped forward and grabbed a strand of the crimson red hair.
He then looked the girl in the face and commented with a wide smile, "Wow. Your hair is such a beautiful color."
Rias Gremory just blinked. She didn't mind that he'd intruded on her personal space and grabbed some of her hair, since she didn't much care for such things.
It was his words that surprised her. She'd never heard that before…Okay, she had, but never as the first thing. Most people complimented her body first(at least mentally if not out loud).
Her eyes second. Her flawless skin or face shape third. Her hair was usually the fifth or sixth thing a person complimented. Yet this guy did it immediately after seeing her. It was…different.
Her surprise gave Naruto enough time to realize what he'd just done. He was naturally a blunt and improper person, saying what he thought. No hesitation whatsoever, but he did know proper manners on some level.
So he knew plenty of girls would be creeped out or intimidated by him suddenly intruding on their personal space, grabbing their hair, and complimenting it. He didn't even know this girl's name.
So he quickly took a step back while letting go of her hair. He then scratched the back of his neck and laughed in embarrassment before saying, "Sorry about that. I can be kind of thoughtless. I hope I didn't alarm you, Ms…?"
Rias once again blinked in shock. He didn't know her name. Yeah, the two had never spoken before, but she was used to everyone at the school knowing her name. Another aspect of him that differed from the norm.
Rias managed to hide her shock and chuckled softly before replying with a small smile, "It is fine, Uzumaki-san.
I was surprised, but I'm flattered by your compliment. I'm Rias Gremory by the way. Rias as my given name."
This time it was Naruto's turn to be surprised. He tilted his head in confusion before asking, "I'm sorry for asking, but have we met before, Rias-san? You seem to know me."
"No, we have not. You are simply rather…well known around the school, Naruto-san," Rias replied calmly, surprised but comfortable with his use of her given name. Reciprocating the level of familiarity was automatic for her.
