Naruto took a deep breath and closed his eyes as he knelt down. From the brevity of their conversation it was pretty clear that Horny knew only the basics. Keepers were the evil overlords of the Underworld, the mass of tunnels and caverns underneath some strange alternate world, and if they were immortal as long as their heart was intact but if it was destroyed they were pretty much screwed. Honestly, it was like something out of a Princess Kiyuki movie.
Still, the demon said that most of the stuff he needed to know was built into the Heart, but he had to be mediating on it to properly use it. Well, here he was mediating and nothing was happening. What the hell was supposed to happen anyways? He frowned slightly and thought back to his sensation before he was reincarnated in this new body. It was like he had some grand birds eye view of everything right thorough the walls.
He blinked as that is exactly what he saw... it was strange. He could feel everything... when he looked at his imps and horny he could see them close up or far away... he could move around and see everything they'd touched. He knew how much of that strange green charka he hand, he knew how many imps he hand, and he even know what they were called now.
He smiled. He could ever... yeah. Horny had told him they needed some other rooms. Told him to build something called a lair and a hatchery. He could now tell that it would take gold. Why? He frowned again. Something about alchemy and gold being the universal foundation for all transmutation? He guessed that made sense, to someone else at least.
There was clearly a lot of knowledge in the heart but he didn't know enough to know how to use it. Maybe if he built a library he might know how to do more. How did he know that anyways? Heart told him.
Damn this was strange. Still, there was enough left of the prison to sell...
He smiled as gold appeared around his heart.
Good. Now he just had to order up a lair. He visualized the room that once was horny's small prison be converted into a lair, and smiled as the room changed to what was apparently a lair. Now to order the imps to dig...
He felt part of the rock in his minds eye and watched them go at it like Choji into all you can eat BBQ.
Awesome.
While the imps dug he pulled back and looked about. Horny had said something about being able to pick minions up. He grinned and focused on the reaper and grinned as he picked up the demon who vanished in a poof of smoke.
Absently he guessed it must be like some kind of summoning jutsu. Moving his view over he willed that the demon be dropped behind his imps, and in a second explosion of smoke he demon landed on his ass.
Growling the large monster shook his fist into the air yelling at him. “Keep your bloody hands off!” Horny roared before kicking one of the imps so hard the creature actually exploded in a burst of energy.
Naruto frowned at Horny's murder of one of the little critters but was shocked when another came into being next to his heart. Cool.
It had felt strange though, kind of like a jutsu.
With a smile he used the jutsu himself and laughed in glee as another imp joined the work force. He could tell though that it was going to take more energy to create another though.
Pulling back he stood up and shook his head. “Wow,” Naruto said to himself, “What a rush.”
Stumbling forward he reaches the lair. It wasn't bad, a bit simple but he didn't get why they'd call a carpeted floor a lair.
In an explosion of smoke a bed appeared before him. He smiled. He guessed that's was why.
With a loud sigh he let himself fall back and slipped away into a restless slumber.
