The Promise

Shiro-kun!" a familar voice said with a smile, he slowly opened his eyes, to spot Naruko her eyes gazing upon me with a bright grin on her face, "I got dinner!"

Shiro narrowed his eyes at the dish.

'System is anybody watching?'

[Negative host]

'Good.'

"'That's bad food Naruko-chan." Shiro said softly, causing Naruko to frown.

Yes, during the years that they have been together, the Matron had tried to kill Naruko off with poisoning her foods. Thankfully, Shiro was already suspicious of this due to the fanfictions that he read in his previous life, so he had already been prepared.,

he took advantage of the omnipresent knowledge his system hadbut eventually, he was able to tell if it was poison or not just by looking at it. Since they put poison with almost every meal that they gave him, some dishes, a different, poison than others. They were just that desperate to kill the kyuubi, if only they knew that Kurama, isn't the one responsible for Konoha's destruction. Much less Naruko.

Just give me a minute alright?"

Shiro gazed at the dishes for a few seconds, then...his eyes started to glow softly for a few seconds, before the food itself glowed too with the same color.

A few seconds later the glow faded, the rise became. a somewhat healthy color.

"Can you tell me how to do that?" Naruko asked with a puppy eyed look.

Shiro melted at the look, but he merely smiled at her.

Her cheeks became red at his smile, which only enhanced how adorable she looked.

"I told you before Naruko-chan, It's all magic."

, "...I don't believe you."

Shiro shrugged his shoulders and chuckled.

"Will you teach me?" she asked.

Shiro smiled, "It's not something I can teach."

True, He doesn't know have of the stuff that goes on in his mind, he uses his mind as imagination for some crazy techniques, but that is a quirk of his own.

"Meanie."

Shiro couldn't take it, he laughed and hugged her tightly, the pout was just so adorable.

"Don't be like that," Shiro said glancing at her with a grin.

"I'll tell you what, when you are old enough, I will teach you more than just that, I will make you the strongest woman in this village."

She looked at him with hope sparkling in her eyes, "You promise?"

Shiro nodded causing her expression to brighten.

"I promise."
