Aaron looked at my out stretched palm confused.
"What do you mean?." He glanced at me.
"You mean you don't understand the concept of fucking money?".
"Wait, You wanna charge me?".
"Yes." I said shamelessly.
Ugh.
He ran his hands through his pockets.
"I actually don't have any money."
"Oh really?..."
I looked him up and down, he'd make a great assistant.
"How would you like to be my assistant?."
"Assistant?." He gave me a look
"Yep, you'll help me in my search for the blood sisters."
His face paled...
"The blood sisters..." he repeated.
"It seems you've heard of them before..." I probed.
The more information I can gather on them the better. And also this mystic arts university...
I asked why did the church have mystic artists too?, and how low does the information travel. I've lived in the church orphanage all my life, yet I didn't notice anything suspicious.
Well... I don't know much about the blood sisters, but there's a story...
I leaned in .
"A little over a year ago, a group of powerful priests in training were sent after a powerful individual, wreaking havoc, he heard that they all died miserable death, and the name that surfaced amongst all this chaos was blood sisters."
I listened to him, it seems they were more renown than I gave them credit for.
"So Mr Zach"
"Just Zach, were the same age..." I waved him off.
"Why are you looking for those monsters?".
"Oh.. those girls.." I thought.
"I have unfinished business that's all..."
"Wow you must be a pretty strong Mystic artists to even have conflict with them."
"Powerful mystic artist?... heh.. " I almost chuckled.
"Let him think that at least."
I asked Aaron if that all he knew, unfortunately it was, but I'm not complaining.
I glanced at my journal.
–Dear life, when I said could mystic arts get any more complex than that, IT WAS A RETHORICAL QUESTION NOT A FUCKING CHALLENGE!!–
The days went by, and I finally reached the library in Brittan.
I walked in, and headed towards the library keeper.
Mr Zach, you're back amilelia looked as bright as ever her light blue hair braided to a crown around her head with round glasses make her look more like a scholar.
I waved my hand dismissing her, "where's the book?"
She gave me directions, and I headed to the fictional section where I saw the book.
"What remains unseen" by proff Rudolf of the mystic arts university of Origin laws and arcane sorcerery.
"Fantastic."
I began reading and it described various monsters found in the unseen realm, a biography.
–The unseen realm monsters don't have an official ranking placed upon them by mystic arts society, so I came up with my own rankings for them.–
–There are the dormant mutts the imps, these ones just wander about in the unseen realm, and never attacks, even if provocked.–
I glanced at the page.
This isn't the kind of info I needed right now, but it was good to learn as much as I can, in case I find myself in a precarious situation.
–Then theres the pain in the ass the fiends, these one are the most cunning they hate been seen and love ambushes, they can pretty hard to deal with especially if they catch you off guard.–
I flipped.
–Then you have the hunters, spirits that can wipe out an entire team of mystic artists these guys are as smart as humans sometimes even smarter.–
–They spend their time wandering the unseen realm and looking for ways to wreak havoc in the real world.–
–Then there are the reapers. If you ever encounter one. Run.–
That's all the page said.
I flipped.
–Then there are the demons. Every demon was capable of causing a world altering event that can shift the course of history.–
I closed the book with a sigh.
"Such a pain..." I glanced at the window.
I grabbed the book and was about to return it when a page fell of the book.
*Oops*
I grabbed the page and looked at it, it was a bunch of numbers arranged on a map, I would've left it at that but then I looked at the page once more.
These looked like coordinates.
I sat back down.
The corrdidinats mapped out the cantral cathedral of Brittany where the pope resides.
I glanced at the sheet.
This could be a clue, so I decided to follow it, but first.
I put the book on the table.
"Are you satisfied with your book?." Amilelia smiled.
"Oh yes I am. I took out five kronen. Please write to me if you pick up any related topic."
I raised the book.
"Can I borrow this for a while?."
Amelia shook her head.
I'm sorry but that book have already been reserved by other people.
I looked surprised.
'Other people...'
"I suppose this kind of stuff would be useful for rogue artists like me.*
People who discovered this world by chance.
'Extra extra read all about it, an entire social organization found dead over night. The church baffled over the sudden loss of a high priest.–'
Sudden mention of a church and a high priest poked my interest.
I bought a paper, visited a nearby cafe and ordered a cup of black coffee with little sugar.
I sipped as I flipped page by page.
Indeed, an entire mass of people were found dead in a cathedral located on the outskirts of Brittany, closer to the harbor than any other chatedrals in the area.
Brittany have a total of five cathedrals, the east, the west, the north, the south and the central cathedral. It's pretty much the same in all major cities, each church have a bishop and all four cathedrals Is oversees by the arch bishop.
As I read through I discovered something, the newspaper didn't give specific details of where the cathedrals, and there were no pictures, which is normal for a small scale newspaper faction.
Cameras were quite expensive only owned by major publishing companies so I didn't expect much.
I reviewed what I learnt, in the unseen realm there are monsters that vary in strength and the rankings Rudolf Alfred came up with was.
-Imp
-Fiend
-Humter
-Reapet
-Demon
Each are more powerful than the last l, I wonder if there an entire kingdom of spirits.. my thoughts almost trailed off.
If I want to investigate the cathedral murder I'll have to find where this cathedral is feist.
I smiled.
Them I would have to assign my Frist job to my assistant.
I smiled.
I tore a page off the journal and began to write a letter.
*Clears throat*
–Aaron get your light skin ass over here!!.–
I explained the situation with the massacre of the peace church and the massacre. I told him my speculations abut the priest, and the manner at which the victims died, ripped limb from limp,my instincts tells me it could be a spirit.
If my speculations are correct, this could become an interesting mystery, considering Aaron has dealings with the peace church he would have an easier time finding out said information.
Next course of action. Finding the coordinates on the map.
