Namikaze Residence

Naruto open his eyes from his sleep. He no longer feels pain from his fight against Stray Berserker and Archer Alcides. After do some stretching, he go to kitchen to cook some breakfast.

" Good morning, Master. " Jeanne who sit on tatami (Japanese traditional mats) in center room. There are no wall between kitchen and center room, so they can talk each other.

" You two already wake up, huh... " Reply Naruto

" We don't sleep. Servant don't need sleep. "

" Is that so? Did you also don't need food either? "

" We don't need food... but... "

Suddenly, they hear a voice from Jeanne Alter. It was her rumbling stomach noise. Naruto and Jeanne looking to Jeanne Alter.

" WHAT!? I DON'T MEAN TO DO THAT!? " Said Jeanne Alter. His face blush due to embarrass

" Alright~ Alright~ I don't hear that~ " Reply Naruto with mischievous smile

WUSH

Because of feel embarrassed from his Master, Jeanne Alter throw a television remote on table, but Naruto easily catch it. 

" Looks like training after a fight isn't bad. " Said Naruto after see her reflect became sharper. Then, he bounce the remote to Jeanne so she can put it on the table.

Naruto starts to cook their breakfast. Usually he just cook an instant noodle, but due to there are two new residents in his residence, he cooks a Japanese traditional breakfast: Tamago kake gohan with miso soup and grilled mackerel. Naruto serves it on table and he also gives his two Servants a pair of spoon and fork. 

" Alright... Bon appetit... " Said Naruto

" Bon appetit... " Reply Jeanne and Jeanne Alter.

Naruto open a packet of natto, stirring it, and pouring it to his tamago kake gohan. 

" What's that? " Ask Jeanne Alter.

" A natto. You won't like it. People outside Japan hate it. "

" But- "

"If you can stand the smell of the wrapper, I'll let you eat it. " Naruto said while handing over the remaining natto wrapper he was holding.

Jeanne and Jeanne Alter smell it and throw it away.

" WHAT THE HECK! IT SO STING! " Said Jeanne Alter

" Master, why it so stingy? "

" If you ask why... that because natto is basically a fermented soy bean. It why I don't give it to you. "

Then, they eat their food.

.

After some times later, Naruto and his Servant finish their food. Naruto changes his clothes to his school uniform. Jeanne and Jeanne Alter also changes their clothes into casual clothes.

" So, as planned, I want you to be around the school area for about 200 meter. You can't go inside the school area. Since I don't sense any Servants other than Teme's, I will be alright. " Said Naruto

" Yes, Master. " Reply his Servants.

Konoha Academy

Before the class, Naruto sit on his chair. He feel so boring. It doesn't mean he want to hunt another Masters and their Servant, but due to his club activity and part-time job closed. 

" You just like someone who want to die, dobe. " Said Sasuke. He sit in another chair in front of Naruto's.

" I'm boring. Its kill meeee!!! "

" I think that to hyperbolic. So, how about yesterday. "

" I almost die and I'm still alive. So wonderful. "

" Yesterday, I meet a Stray Servant from Lancer-class. "

" Lancer, huh... The same class as Alter... In my case, we meet two Stray Servants, Archer and Berserker. "

" Archer...? And Berserker...? You know their identity? "

" Archer is Alcides, young version of Heracles. For Berserker.... I don't know about him. "

" In understand. I don't know Stray Lancer's identity either. Sorry, I can't give you more information. "

" Its okay. Can you tell that Lancer's appearance? "

" I'm sure he is a Greek. He just like a warrior from Trojan War. He carry a round shield in his left hand. His round shield not so big compare to his hand. "

" Round shield...? Greek...? I don't have any name in my mind. The Greek Warrior I know only Heracles. "

" Next, for another Master, beside Master of Rider and Archer who nearly kill you last time, I haven't identified them yet. "

" Did they have a reason why they haven't make any move yet? "

" Maybe they want to see the situation first? But, if they did not immediately join the war, it shouldn't be good for them. "

" I understand. Thank you. I'll do more patrolling this night. "

" I'll do the same thing. Call me if you need my help. "

" Same to you. I'll help you if you call me. See you, Teme. "

" You too, Dobe. "

They do their friendship handshake and Sasuke go from Naruto's class.
