章 12: Will He Win?
(5 Days Later)
After that conversation with the Hokage, Hikaru decided to transfer all his stuff in Naruto's house, since they would be living together. It wasn't much, he just had a dagger, Gold Pine Resin, his thief set, and his last remaining humanities, which he isn't going to show to Naruto.
He bought new clothes to replace his armor. It was too hot inside it and some of his movements are restricted because of the weight. He bought 4 new pair of clothes and some for Naruto, I mean, if he's gonna live there, he might as well buy something for Naruto. All of it cost 500 Ryo. Now, he only has 2500 Ryo on his hands and he's going to share it with Naruto.
Unlike her, Hikaru doesn't need to eat for sustainment. Meanwhile, she will die if she were to starve herself. Since transferring to Naruto's house, Hikaru has been buying ingredients to cook Naruto food. He had some experience with cooking since he was always left alone in the house while his parents were out working.
Naruto was overjoyed when she saw his gift for her, an orange cloak similar to the Fourth Hokage's cloak. She has always been a fan of the Fourth Hokage, and ironically, he is her father. Hikaru felt his face heating up when Naruto hugged him because of his gift to her. He didn't notice it but at that time, Naruto was tearing up.
It was the first time that someone, besides the old man, bought her a gift and a precious one at that too. She couldn't wait to parade it all over the village. She's going to brag it to the kids in school, and maybe, just maybe, she could make friends with them too.
Hikaru felt like he was babysitting his little sister because Naruto is like the epitome of a very lazy person. When he first arrived there, he saw her place covered in many kinds of trash. He could even see a cup ramen, still full, on the ground.
Hikaru just decided to clean it all up, and by the time the sun had set, the entire apartment was good as new.
After his fight in the school, the five boys' families mysteriously disappeared by the next day. Like, poof! The boys were never seen again either, and he was sure that the Third Hokage was the one who did that.
'Anyway, it's not my problem. They could die for all I care they're just assholes anyway, ' Hikaru though as he sat through the class trying not to fall asleep from the boring lesson of his teacher.
All this time, he still hasn't made any progress and that's bothering him. He needs to gather souls to level up and prepare for his battle against the Olden God that resides in this world. So he decided, tonight he would farm lots and lots of souls. But first, he will have to equip all his stuff.
Also, since the day he fought with those kids, if you could call it like that, he was never allowed to bring his Drake Sword to school. The Third Hokage himself said so.
Hikaru looks at Sasuke, who's right beside him sitting in his part of the chair. He seems to be listening to this boring lecture, guess having an older brother you're supposed to kill for revenge is a very good motivation for a nine-year-old child. Itachi you should be proud of your brother. He's actually listening to this boring lesson.
Ah, wait, I take that back. He's not listening to the lesson, he's just sleeping with his eyes open! Holy fuck! I didn't know anyone could do that! This boy is a genius! I think I can get him to teach me that, it would be quite useful here for these stupid boring lessons.
(Midnight, At 12 Am)
It's now midnight and Naruto is sleeping in her bed quietly. Hikaru decided to challenge a Black Knight, but just one. It may be very dumb of him to do this, but he will reap great rewards from this. It's said in -Challenge- option that he can acquire 20,000 Souls if he were able to defeat this Black Knight. Once he defeats that thing, he would be able to advance to a new stage, where 2 Black Knights await him. And so on.
He sat on his futon on the ground while the main screen of the Dark Souls System is in front of him. He told Naruto that he would just sleep on the ground and she will stay on the bed, she tried to refuse but in the end, he won.
Anyway, he is now laying on his futon. For this to work, he would have to let his physical body to sleep while he goes to the stage where he would be fighting the Black Knight. In short, it's just like a VR but he will be unconscious in the real world while his mind goes on to the stage.
His physical body will also take damage if he takes damage while fighting the Black Knight and that's why he needs to be fast. If Naruto saw it, she will immediately go to the Hokage and tell it to him, and by that time, he would have no explanations for it.
He taps the yes button on the screen and his body went limp almost immediately right just after pressing it.
He arrived in an empty world. A w blank white world where he can't see anything but four white walls. The whole surroundings were lit but it was quite strange because there was nothing in this place that could light it.
Suddenly, he notices white particles gathering in front of him, 10 meters away. It started to become a humanoid shape figure until it turned black before becoming a black knight. It was menacing, a tall fully armored knight, standing in front of him with its giant sword ready to strike him.
Hikaru grew serious and he readied his Drake Sword on his right hand, his face is covered with a hood. He is wearing the thief set. A pretty weak armor that normally no beginners in Dark Souls would use to fight a real Black Knight.
His armor is weak while the Black Knight... well... let's just say it's very sturdy.
Such a disadvantage from the start, will Hikaru win or will he die a gruesome death?
