I reincarnated in the year 1860, more precisely on March 25, I am in the Victorian era, even though I was in another world...
(1 day before Madame Mystery's arrival)
Sakegi: -Why is there a forest at the bottom of the funeral home? - yawning at the back door of the solemn soul funeral home.
Howl: -The doctor needed a place to train and experiment... - on Sakegi's shoulder.
Sakegi: -So he thought it was a good idea to plant trees in the backyard... - Trying to see the extent of the forest.
Howl: -The doctor had his reasons. – Flying into the forest. -Let's go!
Sakegi: -okay then... - following Howl.
They walked along the road through the forest until they came to a fireplace in the middle of it, the place was littered with runes on clay pilasters 2 meters high each, circles made of stone on the floor, iron arches extending towards the center from above.
Sakegi: -Looks like someone was fanatical about stone circles... - remembers that in the UK there are many such archaeological sites.
Howl: -Today we are going to see in practice what you have read in the arts of the trade book. – Landing on a stone dome that was on the ground.
Sakegi: -that basic 3-way thing? – scratching his ear with his little finger.
Howl: -Yes, the term undertaker is just a title that the ancient lords found to deal with common people, among the order the agents call themselves "spiritual lords".
Sakegi: -Spiritual Lords? – finding that name a little too suggestive.
Howl: -Yes, the doctor was called Mr. Alma. – getting happy.
Sakegi: -Lord Soul... why? – squatting on the floor.
Howl: -Within the capabilities of an undertaker there are three base skills an agent can have, and a base four called a junction, but few will master it completely, so Bones, Soul, Spectral and the junction that came to be known as Factor.
Sakegi: -from what I read in those notes are the phases of a deceased body, bones after decomposition, soul after leaving the body, and spectral after merging with the overworld. -showing on fingers. –but this junction? What would it be exactly?
Howl: -The Factor is the joining of two or more base shapes - Creating designs in the air with its crooked branch. -The doctor could use all these phases, but he was known to use the second with the master.
Sakegi: -soul... - feeling the wind pass.
Howl: -Exactly, so I suppose you also inherit that name as houses always keep their skills, abilities and abilities.
Sakegi: -This at home is new.
Howl: -there are 5 houses, each house responds directly to the queen, each house has 7 rooms/families, the Vladis family responds to the Fainir house, one of the most rigorous and balanced among the 5 that are generally divided into 3 aspects, 2 of them are more geared towards nobility, 2 of them for people with status and 1 does not differ royalty, nobility and commoner, which is the case of ours, even Vladis being a noble he preferred to join a house without status as a requirement.
Sakegi: "-it's not that different from how the other world works, there will always be discrimination no matter where" – he thought. -I understood.
Howl: -but going back to the craft, once the agent knows its main aspect, he will have to master the techniques that involve this competence, and this is called the craft, the power of the spiritual lords.
Sakegi: -So I have to start with one of the three, and after mastering it I can make way for the others? – Taking the cane.
Howl: -It won't be that simple, usually a lord only controls one, if very skillful two, but the 3 only the exceptional are capable. – Creating poorly made drawings in the air. –let's test and see what your job will be.
Sakegi: -What do you mean test? – swinging the cane on her finger.
Howl: -I will attack with everything I have, that's why we're here at this training ground. – as if he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Sakegi: -Wait, will you attack me even though I don't know how to defend myself? -get ready.
Howl: -when it starts, speak out loud, Repercussion!
Sakegi: -That's it? What guarantee do I have that it will work?
Howl: -It doesn't, if it fails you will have your body dominated by a necro - take a deep breath. "-if he is like the doctor, he will show great aptitude right from the start". - he thought. -ready?
Sakegi: -That doesn't sound good to me...but it does. – holding the cane.
Howl: -Very well, let's get started. – activating the local runes. -good luck.
The pillars and arches begin to glow, the stone circles begin to turn, all of a sudden day turns to night and turns to day again as if time were speeding up, the concentration of spiritual energy was intense, which drew the attention of many lesser spirits if stand around watching
Sakegi: -damn... - marveling at the effect created there until he notices a shadow of energy heading towards him. -That must be it...repercussion! – Shouts loudly as he points his cane towards the shadow.
Howl: -...! – amazed by what he sees.
Sakegi: -...!
A large wave of energy flows from the cane towards the shadow, this generated energy wave destroys the creature in a matter of seconds and soon the time turns and returns to normal after the test has been successfully performed.
Sakegi: -Damn what was that? – seeing a bunch of bones passing through the creature in order to hold it in place.
Howl: -What a horrible death, but I shouldn't expect too much that someone could be like the doctor or that man. – Passing the left wing over the face. -Try the other one.
Sakegi: -What are you talking about? – thinking it had been excellent.
Howl: -the "rebound" is a way of showing your strength caliber when using a technique of yours but also identifies your craft as one of the bases as I said...
Sakegi: -So these bones mean that...
Howl: -Your trade is bones. – Head down. -That's disappointing... not even the soul he can manifest.
Sakegi: -I'm right here in! – Speaking of disapproval of Howl's treatment of him. -I did the bones, it's something, isn't it?
Howl: -This is the weakest! - screams the bird. – what will the order say if it finds out about this? he asked himself.
Sakegi: -and what does this order have to do with it? – yells back.
Howl: -There is a hierarchy in you, there are agents, supervisors and heads of houses, they are all elite agents of course, but they obey in a different way.
Sakegi: -because this isn't smelling good on me. – disgusted with this form of hierarchy.
Howl: -My plans went down to the bone, I have to review your training and cry because the name of lord soul was thrown in the trash!
Sakegi: -dramatic bird... - Gritting his teeth.
Howl: -I'm sorry Mr Ector! – Flying back to the funeral home.
Sakegi: -He was really shaken...I em. – looking around so much in spirit. -And he still left me a dream here... - He starts back the way he came.
(2 days after Madame Mystery's arrival)
Sakegi: -aaaaaa! – me larga garota!
-Please marry me, I will give you great pleasure.
-No, you have to marry me, I'm much more appetizing than this skinny one.
-they're both wrong, I can make you get to heaven just using my mouth.
Sakegi continues to be courted by the women of the city no matter where he is.
Sakegi: "-these girls are all desperate, that's insane". – hiding behind a barrel of water for horses. -I seem to be able to outwit them. – looking around. -Damn Howl, left me alone when I most need it, I can't even go to the bank without being attacked by these girls, what the hell is wrong with this town?
Howl: -Sakegi, what are you doing there? – flying after Sakegi.
Sakegi: -aaa! So you scare your idiot owl! – beating his chest.
Howl: -running from women again? – landing on the ground.
Sakegi: -yeah...
Howl: -rs..
Sakegi: -Was that a smile?
Howl: -no...
Sakegi: -That was a smile you owl...
-Sir agent! - Shout the three girls who are hunting Sakegi.
Sakegi: -oooo! We have to get out of here. – not knowing where to run.
Howl: -Let's go this way or we'll miss the train. – Indicating a place to run.
After leaving the girls' sight, Sakegi and Howl head to the town's station because after the event with Madame Mystery, Howl decided to take Sakegi to officially enlist in the order, a place outside town so they could stay longer. relaxed without Madame's visits in the middle of the night in Sakegi's room.
Sakegi: -Damn that witch's pension is quite busy. – Looking at the place where Tulipa Natalie's pension would be. - huh? - Hearing loud moans. - huh? –seeing the flow of on-site men and half-naked women. -This looks more like a brothel.
Howl: -The Natalie family is known for their brothels...
Sakegi: -but she said pension.
Howl: -Indeed it is, but not a common one...
Sakegi: -Now I know where so many perverts came from in this town.
Train whistle sounds through the city.
Howl: -Come on, the train is leaving. – carrying a small suitcase.
Sakegi: -Hey wait for me! - Running trying to carry your suitcase.
After the train left for London, the journey would last 5 hours in the world he lived in before but in this world it would take 3 days and would still stop at three more stations before reaching its final destination, the council of order that is in the palace Crystal in London.
-... - Someone observes Sakegi sitting on the train while the train was at the first stop of the trip, which was not far from his city but was mandatory due to entities.
Sakegi: -I'll get the water off my knee, I'll be right back. – getting up from the train seat.
Howl in brooch form: -you don't know how to control yourself?
Sakegi: -I didn't have time to go before I left, those girls are looking at me in the bathroom...
Howl in the form of a brooch: -then go, but I stay here, I don't want to see you in the bathroom.
Sakegi: -l much less do I want you to see, you big-tongued.
He gets off the train and goes to a washable at the station where they were, the place was not very busy, the facilities were clean and tidy, an employee or two controlled the entry and exit of trains.
Sakegi: -Damn, how tight I was. - Relieving himself. -order...what awaits me there.
-there's nothing there for you. - holding Sakegi's shoulder
Sakegi: -... - looking at the hand on her shoulder. –oh, a rapist? - Scared.
-which? Not! – Withdrawing Sakegi's hand.
Sakegi: -Careful, I'm armed. – with his pants down.
-I got it... wait a minute what? - looking down. –what is this conversation?
Sakegi: -and I don't know, you're the one who came picking me up, man. – wearing the pants.
-It doesn't matter, you will be mine, I will finally be able to show him that he was wrong. – holding Sakegi's shoulder again.
Sakegi: -Get out! - taking his hand if you and soon after trying to leave through the door.
-Factors of the trade! – throwing a punch against Sakegi's back.
Sakegi: -...! – being hurled out of place with brutality after the blow.
-How ridiculous, someone so weak and mediocre...being an agent.
Sakegi: -Factor? who are you man – with blood running from the corner of his mouth.
-I am Bartô Seraphim the second, the gentleman, and the true heir of the Vladis.
An agent appears in front of Sakegi, Bartô wore the same clothes as Sakegi but in different colors, he wore brown with predominance and his top hat was brown with green details, his cane was bigger than Sakegi's and had carved runes, his hair was red, black eyes and a mustache.
Sakegi: -What do you want with me? – Standing up after the blow.
Bartô: -I already told you, which is rightfully mine - preparing for another attack.
Sakegi: -But I don't even know you, man. - Feeling that your shoulder has been dislocated.
Bartô: -It doesn't matter, you'll meet him soon. – making a fist. –factors of the trade: extreme power!
Bartô begins to fiercely punch Sakegi's body without him being able to defend himself or pull the cane from his waist, on the rails the noise starts to make people uncomfortable,
Howl: -arrrr, Sakegi is taking too long. – Listening to noises. –what will this be? -Taking advantage that there was no one in the car where he was, to return to his full owl form. –this flow, there is something happening – it prepares to fly. -I have to see what this is!
-there's more not even going! – Howl attacked over the top.
Howl: -what? – tries to dodge the blow but ends up being thrown to the ground.
-At last we meet again... - An owl like Howl, only bigger, with black feathers and a straight branch, appears attacking the same.
Howl: -Jintaro? – Looking at the owl in front of him.
Jintaro: -Hello Jirachi, my old brother. - smiling.
Howl: -If you're here then it means that...
Jintaro: -Yes, he is settling the score with his new pupil, and call me Howg.
Sakegi continues to be obliterated by Bartô without any ounce of compassion for each new blow.
Sakegi: "-I have to do something, or he'll kill me" – thinking about what to do. –Bones of the craft!
Sakegi manages to grab his cane and releases the repercussion that drives Bartô away from him.
Bartô: -two days ago you used this same technique. – holding the cane he uses. -and I knew it was you, a new heir had emerged. – speaking through clenched teeth.
Sakegi: that day. – remembering that he used it against Madame.
Bartô: -I had to see it with my own eyes! – creating circles of energy in the hands. –but you can't even use energy to compose your techniques.
Sakegi: -Damn, I didn't have time to practice this but...- remember what Howl said on the train.
(flashback)
Howl: -To use the bones of the craft you have to figure out what you want dirty in the form of bones, this is limited but that's what we have for now.
(gift)
Bartô: -factors of the trade: mega coup! – with circles of spiritual energy behind you.
Sakegi: -Bones of the craft! – trying to stay balanced while standing.
Bartô goes up to Sakegi who points his cane at him and quotes his craft again to release a power, but this time something comes out different, a bunch of bones appear around Sakegi forming a protection.
Bartô: -That is... - reducing the speed of his blow.
Sakegi: -Fuck, I have a Susanoo! – amazed by his invocation. –drop in your starch!
Bartô punches the skeleton that breaks at the same time that Sakegi closes his mouth after teasing him.
Sakegi: -...! -Being hit in the ribs by Bartô's blow that throws him into a tree. -That Susanoo nothing... -feeling two broken ribs. -This is too much. – spitting blood.
Bartô: -I thought, he must be strong, brave to have inherited such power. - riled up. –but no, he's just an idiot who doesn't know how to use anything! – arriving in front of Sakegi who could barely stand awake. -After all I was his pupil and not you, I trained hard, I gave my blood and sweat for the Vladis family.
Sakegi: "-this guy was trained by Eitor... now I know where so much power comes from, it's surreal, but why wasn't he elected?." - he thought.
Bartô: -I'll take what is rightfully mine, die Sakegi Tomoya! You useless! – Preparing the final blow.
Sakegi: "-it's true, I'm useless here or in my land." – surrendering.
(Flashback)
Howl: -The doctor chose you for some reason, even though you are not a blood heir or his pupil. – speaking of the first time Sakegi stepped into the funeral home. –if he approved, then I will be his guide.
(Gift)
Bartô: -factors of the trade: fatal punch! – heading towards Sakegi's chest.
Sakegi: -Now I got to be brave? – looking at Bartô. – calm down there.
Barto: -What? – Sakegi only held his punch with one hand.
Sakegi: -If he rejected someone as skilled as you, and accepted a loser like me, then I will honor his legacy, even if it costs me my life! - spitting blood and with the arm that held Bartô all fucked up.
Bartô: -this aura... - not believing in the power it emanates.
Sekagi: -So if there's a problem with me, we'll solve it right here and now! Craft bones: skull smash! – briefly creating circles of energy.
Bart: -...!
Sakegi hits Bartô in the face with his fist covered by bones, which causes him to be thrown to the other side of the station, destroying the bathrooms and kitchen of the place.
Bartô: -ooo! – Spitting blood.
He is hurled to where Howg was, who when he saw that he was able to stop his movement using leaves to create a barrier.
Howg: -master? – seeing he's passed out on the floor.
Howl: -Sakegi? – looking where Bartô came from. –he's using the craft… –seeing that Sakegi was standing with the fist of bones.
Howg: -master Bartô! – trying to wake him up.
Howl goes to Sakegi who was about to pass out too.
Howl: -Sakegi! – flying to him.
Sakegi: -Howl, did you see that? I gave the me a scratch... - falling to the ground in a faint.
Howl: -It looks like you took the scratch and was lucky to punch him... - looking at Sakegi's state.
A few minutes pass and the two undertakers wake up after having their wounds soothed by the owls.
Bartô: -Don't think it's over, next time you won't be so lucky. – mounted on horse.
Sakegi: -I say the same. – on shaky legs.
Bartô: -Let's go Howg. – pulling the horse.
Howg: -Next I'll barbecue you, brother. - showing the tongue.
Howl: -That won't do. – not believing that they find them right at the beginning of the trip.
Sakegi: -he used the name factors in the blows....
Howl: -a yes, Barto is a spectral and soul user, so he uses these two factors to change the strength of his punches and has become an expert at it.
Sakegi: -Soon the strongest...
Howl: -He is an exceptional but arrogant. – returning to Sakegi's shoulder.
Sakegi: -Because he let me challenge him... - No belief in life.
Howl: -Don't come with that, it's not your fault that you think too much. – becoming a brooch.
Sekegi: -I will die sooner or later. – Desperate, getting on the train. –oh dog life.
Farther north of the station, the train passed over a bridge that spans a river.
Howg: -What happened? He was hit by a guy like that... - like a prop in a hat.
Bartô: -I saw the master's aura when he used the technique, I didn't react at the time, luckily you used the leaves and managed to cushion the blow. – watching the train where Sakegi and Howl were going.
Howg: -so you left him alive? – returning to his normal form on Bartô's shoulder.
Bartô: -Yes. - looking up. -There must be a reason for him to have been accepted, and I'll find out what it is, but first I have other issues to resolve. – looking at a news story about a cloud of smoke that has been appearing in several different locations over the past few weeks.
