NARUTO: The Saga of Crimson Monarch

The village was a humble place, and the simple lives of its people had deeply touched Ares. As he walked through its narrow, weathered streets, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. The village, despite its beauty in its own right, was struggling. Broken houses, ill health, and an empty bellied population had been the reality for so long. But Ares, carrying with him a deep sense of responsibility from his training and experiences, felt the weight of his powers and the need to help these people. He remember The Movie of Spider Man "With great power comes great responsibility. - Uncle Ben" It was a lesson Ares had learned the hard way, but one that now drove him to act.

It didn't take long for Ares to realize that the village needed more than just a healing hand. They needed to learn how to thrive, how to feed themselves, how to rebuild, and how to regain the vitality that had been stripped from them by time, misfortune, and neglect. So, he began to teach.

With Mr. Suzuki's help, Ares spoke to the village chief, explaining that they needed to change their methods of survival if they wanted to live better lives. He spent time with the villagers, showing them efficient fishing techniques, teaching them how to build sturdy boats, and even showing them how to construct better homes and roads that would last longer and make transportation easier.

The healing wasn't just physical; Ares also taught them how to grow food, how to build fishing nets, and how to plant crops in a sustainable way. He healed their sicknesses with his mysterious abilities, allowing their bodies to regain strength. The simple, everyday skills that Ares had honed over his journey proved invaluable in turning this broken village into a thriving community. His teachings slowly began to transform their way of life.

As the months passed, Ares grew fond of the village. He had been traveling alone for so long, but in this quiet place, surrounded by hardworking people, he began to feel something he hadn't felt in a long time—a sense of belonging. He saw the children playing in the streets, their health improving, and their laughter filling the air. It was a sound he had missed. He taught them to read and write, passing on knowledge that would help them build a brighter future. Time moved quickly, and within a year and a half, the village had flourished. It no longer felt like the place Ares had found, but one that was on the verge of something greater. It had regained its vitality.

One morning, as the sun rose over the village, I knew it was time to leave. My journey had to continue. There were other places to visit, other people to help, and other mysteries to uncover. I walked towards Mr. Suzuki's home to say my farewell, my heart heavy with the knowledge that I would soon leave behind the people who had come to mean so much to me.

As i arrived, i was greeted by Mr. Suzuki's and his wife Akane, who had become like family to me. But before i could say anything, a small voice interrupted me. I looking down, I saw little Aiko, Mr. Suzuki's young daughter, holding tightly to my pants, tears streaming down her face.

"Aniki, don't go! Please, stay with little Aiko forever. Are you mad at little Aiko? I will never bother you again, Aniki. Just stay with me, please."

Her voice cracked as she clung to me, her small arms wrapped tightly around my legs. I knelt down, my heart aching. And I reached out to touch her little head, gently stroking her hair as i smiled softly.

"Aiko-chan," I said, my voice calm, "Little Aiko is very good, and Aniki doesn't hate you. It's just that... I have to travel the world. But I promise, I will come back. I'll bring you food and gifts. I'll visit you again."

But Aiko wasn't satisfied with that answer. Her tears only flowed harder, and she continued to sob, holding onto me as though she couldn't bear to let me go. My heart tightened at the sight of her sadness. There was no way to explain to a child why i had to leave, but i knew i had to keep my promise.

With a deep breath, I hugged Aiko tightly, kissing her forehead. "I'll come back, my little sister. Aniki always loves you, okay? Please understand."

Little Aiko looked up at me with tear-filled eyes, and after a moment, she nodded. Though she was still crying, her grip on me loosened. She understood, in her own way, that he was going to return, even if it was hard for her to let go.

Ares stood up, wiping away the remaining traces of sadness in his eyes. He turned to Mr. Suzuki and Mrs. Akane, offering a warm smile. "Goodbye, my friends. Take care of each other."

Mr. Suzuki, though visibly sad, nodded in understanding. "We will never forget you, Aresu. You've given us hope when we had none. Thank you."

With a final glance at the village, the people who had become like family, Ares turned and began his journey once more. He knew the road ahead would be long, and there would be other places to visit, other lives to touch. But as he walked away, he promised himself that the memory of this village, its struggles, and its people would always be with him. And he would keep his word—he would return.

(A Village Reborn)

Ares' time with Mr. Suzuki and the village had changed him as much as it had changed them. The simple lives of the villagers reminded him of the importance of compassion, the power of community, and the deep responsibility he carried with his abilities. He had learned that even the smallest acts of kindness could create ripples that spread far beyond their intended reach.

As he walked away from the village, Ely soaring beside as Fenrir walking beside him with her little puppy feet and Rimuru resting at his head, Ares knew that this was just one chapter of many. His journey was far from over, but he had left behind a village that would thrive, a village that had regained its strength, and a young girl who would always remember the promise he had made.

What would the future hold? Only time would tell. But for now, Ares was content knowing that he had made a difference—one village at a time.
