Naruto The Uzumaki Emperor - Volume 1 Chapter 107 Forgotten Past 2

Lumiere was instantly alerted after seeing that Secre simply fell unconscious. Before her body could fall to the ground, he quickly held her and put her on a chair.

Looking towards Naruto, the light golden-haired was certain that what the youngster did wasn’t with ill-intents at all. However, Lumiere couldn’t help but feel a bit worried, before he could ask anything, Naruto said: ”Don’t worry, Lumiere. This was a Magic I just unlocked and its function is simply… I sent her mind to the past, she’ll see something that had already happened.”

Frowning lightly at this, Lumiere couldn’t help but question: ”You sent her mind to the past? Your magic really is interesting… However, isn’t this dangerous? Since her mind was sent to the past, this can possibly damage her mind, right?”

”No, it can’t. Just think of someone using a Magic that can spy on others, acting like a spectator. This is basically what Secre will be passing through, I sent her to a part of time where she’ll be able to learn and improve her own Sealing Magic, you can think of this as a gift for your help, Prince.” Naruto said with a mysterious smile.

Staring right onto Naruto’s light blue-colored eyes, Lumiere nodded lightly. He didn’t know why he had such trust in the youngster he just met, however… Lumiere always believed in his instinct: ”I see, you’re showing her actions that already happened in the past as a way to teach her new things. A splendid way of teaching, must I say it myself.”

Seeing Lumiere guessing what his Magic did in such a short moment impressed Naruto slightly. Even though he explained a bit of his Magic, he didn’t give the exact explanation.

At this moment, Lumiere suddenly bowed as he said: ”I know you probably don’t like what I’m doing right now but… I need to show you my gratitude. Secre always had a low self-esteem because of her Magic, helping her is the same as increasing it and helping me.”

”Why are you bowing? Is there a coin on the ground?” Naruto asked despite knowing the answer as Lumiere already said.

Lumiere: ”…”

[Secre Swallowtail P.O.V]

I… Where am I? Prince, where are you? I’m… I’m scared!

These thoughts popped on my mind after feeling I was in a cold space, it remembered myself of the time I discovered what my magic could do. Suddenly, I found myself standing in a large house, albeit from a different point of view.

I could see a younger version of myself playing around with Mana. Around me stood several humans whose bodies were clad in black, I couldn’t even see their faces.

”That useless girl… Poor her, awakening a Magic that can only open and close objects, I pity her.” A female voice rang in my now non-existent ears.

A male voice followed soon after: ”Indeed, to think that the only daughter of the Swallowtail Family would be such a useless girl. Even if she gets a Grimoire, she wouldn’t change her useless, too bad for her… She’ll be sent to serve under the Prince when she turns 15.”

”A status befitting of someone so useless, don’t you think? From a noble girl to a mere servant, hahaha.” Another male said while laughing viciously. He was clearly rejoicing at her, no… At my fate.

Don’t worry, my younger self.

Suddenly, the scenery change as I saw a blond boy with spiky hair running around what seemed to be an enormous city. People chased around him and after catching up to him, they started to torment him with kicks, punches and even cuts.

How could they be so horrible? I can feel that his age just doesn’t go higher than one year old. Somehow, horrible feelings were transmitted from myself, a desire to simply disappear from the world, to die.

I felt horrible, everything I suffered was like compliments. Wait… This boy, he’s the youngster with Your Highness?! Wasn’t he someone of a high-status?

Once again, the scenery changed as I saw that same blond boy, now around 13 years old, reading a scroll. Then, he started to draw symbols on the air that roamed around him as if it was trying to say how much it cared about the boy.

As I looked towards him, a few words passed through my mind, being deeply engraved onto it.

[Fuuinjutsu: Seal of Sound]

[Fuuinjutsu: Seal of Predetermined Death]

I had to admit that out of the two Seals, the last one caught my attention completely. Its power wasn’t something simple as ‘sealing’, rather… If I could learn it, my strength would increase exponentially.

The scenery kept changing as the boy lightly tapped people that were seemingly random, engraving that seal on them. It didn’t take me long to realize, these people were the ones that had tormented him!

I knew this because their faces, while they were tormenting him, didn’t leave my mind.

The seal of Predetermined Death on the people he engraved it started to slowly spin, as if counting when it would… be activated. It was invisible to the eyes and as soon as it was activated and killed the victim, it would disappear, leaving no traces.

What a vicious Seal… Not that I’m complaining, from what I’ve seen, the boy only used it to avenge himself against these humans. No, the ones that tormented him had the Soul of a snake, completely evil. They couldn’t be considered humans.

And I had to admit… I felt good knowing they would have their destiny delivered.

Of course, the Seal of Predetermined Death had limitations. It didn’t work on someone with a strength above certain limits, probably because the boy developed it with the pure intent of avenging himself.

I facepalmed lightly, from the short hours we stood there and talked, I could already judge a bit of his character. That youngster is a complete battle maniac, he probably wouldn’t find fighting that enjoying if he developed such an overpowered Seal.

As for the Seal of Sound, I could easily comprehend it, differently from the Seal of Predetermined Death. In fact, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say I could use the Seal of Sound already.

Suddenly, my mind was pulled back to my body. As I looked towards the blonde youngster in front of me, I wanted to hug him and tell him everything was going to be okay. However, the words couldn’t leave my mouth, it was as if everything that happened was a secret, not meant to be told.

Meanwhile, on Konohagakure.

The Seal of Predetermined Death that was planted on everyone that once tormented and tortured Naruto slowly stopped. Its once invisible yet spinning body was just seconds away from stopping.

And then… As it stopped, slow and painful deaths followed after.
