Hikikomori Quest - Remaking my Life: Part 14/Until the Next Cross.

[Tashi]

Daiyousei:

>"Wait, someone was waiting for us?"

> "Did not I told you that you and someone else were going to receive a notice?" The man speaks. "He's that other person. I bet you know each other very well by now."

Daiko:

>Determine who the two are and call out their names appropriately to greet them if they are familiar.

> The figures are... Daiyousei and Kira. You are pretty sure of it.
> So you call for them.
> They get closer, and you prove yourself right.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiyousei:

>"I know, but I didn't think that you already went to get... Daiko?"

Daiko:

>"...Wait, why's she here?"

[Monarda]

Both:

>"What is this notice even about ?"

[Tashi]

Daiyousei:

>"I know, but I didn't think that you already went to get... Daiko?"

Daiko:

>"...Wait, why's she here?"

> "What, you don't like to have some company besides me? Thought otherwise." Kira chuckles. "And even when I went aaall the way there to this fairy's house, destroyed her door to get in and wake her up. Ah, well. Who cares? Me not~"

Both:

>"What is this notice even about ?"

> Daiko doesn't know about the 'notice' so this is spoke only by Daiyousei.
> "Wanting to get to the point, eh? Very well. Nice one, fairy. I wasn't expecting you to be the first one to begin this."
> Kira floats away of you two, leaving some distance, before stopping. He doesn't turn around to face you.

Wind blows...

> "You. The one who's a mix of different species. Are you aware of your status as a possible puppeteer of souls?" Kira speaks with a different voice tone. He's serious now.
> _

[Monarda]

Daiko:

>"Uh.... yeah, i can see such."

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"Uh.... yeah, i can see such."

> "And you! Fairy! Are you aware of your status as a possible puppeteer of souls?" He asks to Daiyousei with the same seriousness.
> Is he for real?
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiyousei:

>"Possible Puppe- wait, what!?"

Daiko:

>"E-Excuse me?"

[Tashi]

Daiyousei:

>"Possible Puppe- wait, what!?"

Daiko:

>"E-Excuse me?"

BGM:
♪ Puppeteer of Souls.

A chill down their spine...

> ... Nah, he can't be serious...
> Kira turns around immediately as both of you make can't believe what he said. Souls? Daiyousei?
> ... And yes, he's for real.
> "Remember what happened to that ice fairy? Yes, that one time where she ended inside you? What do you think that was?" Kira doesn't falter in his position. He looks at Daiyousei with a seriousness he never showed. Or at least, not like this.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiyousei:

>"...I-I didn't think that was..."

Daiko:

>"So she can do all of this too..."

[Tashi]

Daiyousei:

>"...I-I didn't think that was..."

Daiko:

>"So she can do all of this too..."

> "It was a bit ambiguous and I had several ideas on how that happened, and of about the thirties I had, only two were right. Or at least, this is the one I am completely sure. The other can be mistaken or not. I do not have enough evidence for that."
> Kira grins mockingly.
> "Either way. That was someone manipulating the soul of an individual, dragging them to oneself. Said soul would rest on the puppeteer's as much as the puppeteer wanted, unless the individual have enough willpower to get out by itself."
> The Evil Spirit then looks at Daiko. He grins even more.
> "In short, something that you are surely attuned to."
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"So...Did you bring her to test that, or... Really, why are we here anyways?"

Daiyousei:

>"Maybe it was just a fluke or something else."

[Tashi]

Daiyousei:

>"Maybe it was just a fluke or something else."

> "Oh, trust me. That would be much better if you consider what I am going to say."

Daiko:

>"So...Did you bring her to test that, or... Really, why are we here anyways?"

> "A test, you say? ... That's a 'nicer' way to put it."
> Kira thinks for a moment.
> "... Yes. Let's call it 'a long-term test'. But not only her, as you are involved as well."

They realized, then... What he meant...

> Kira, returning to his previous position near you two, not losing his air of seriousness, but still grinning, he speaks those words that were idly floating on the pair's minds, waiting to be confirmed...
> "You two are going to be my apprentices from now on." He says so.
> _

[Monarda]

Daiyousei:

>"................ehh ?"

[Tashi]

Daiyousei:

>"................ehh ?"

> You are dumbfounded. Did he just said... apprentices...?
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Uh...Well, it'd let me help others more... Especially if more end up in me... Daiyousei, have you had any boxes in you, by the way?"

Daiyousei:

>"I'm not sure."

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"Uh...Well, it'd let me help others more... Especially if more end up in me... Daiyousei, have you had any boxes in you, by the way?"

Daiyousei:

>"I'm not sure."

> "Both of you are no more than small babies getting into the world of being able to walk. Both of you will curse the day where you obtained this unique ability. Curse the fact that you met me, and the fact that I won't let any of you live at peace under my gaze. I'll squeeze the ability out of you if necessary." Kira says so with a smile. Not like a grin, but a satisfied... and mocking smile.
> _

[Monarda]

Both:

>"But why ?"

Dai:

>"I mean, why the subit interest in passing on this ability ?"

OG Dai:

>"Yeah, why are you so willing ?"

[Tashi]

Both:

>"But why ?"

Dai:

>"I mean, why the subit interest in passing on this ability ?"

OG Dai:

>"Yeah, why are you so willing ?"

//Not sure who is who.

> "Why? Because I felt like it." Kira simply says. "You two are probably the only two that will ever have this kind of ability besides me, and if I don't pass it on to disciples, then it will absolutely die due to lack of training. Nevertheless, I also want to see how far a fairy with complex of being intelligent and a mish-mash of species can go without falling in absolute desperation."
> Kira says so as if something completely normal.
> _

[Monarda]

//Who came first ? :3

Both:

>"And we suppose we can't refuse ?"

[Tashi]

//Who came first ? :3

Both:

>"And we suppose we can't refuse ?"

//I suppose OG stands for 'Original' sooo... I feel silly.

> "Did you ever heard me ask for your opinion or acceptance?"
> Kira narrows his eyes as if you told him something funny.
> _

[Monarda]

Both:

>Sigh.
>"What now then ?"

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Well... Let's get this... session, started and over with. We have lives you know."

[Tashi]

Both:

>Sigh.
>"What now then ?"

Daiko:

>"Well... Let's get this... session, started and over with. We have lives you know."

> "... Nothing."
> He simply says. Wind blows, emphasizing the silence...
> ...
> "This won't start right now. It will start in the course of the day." He says with a broader grin.
> Both of you feel tricked!
> "However. I shall give you your tools."
> Taking them out of his coat, Kira handles a white and black glove to Daiyousei and Daiko respectively.
> They are of their perfect sizes. Daiyousei's one is for her left hand, while Daiko's is for his right one.
> "They are basic." Kira explains. "Their magical power is low and it will help to develop your manipulation skills further. Don't get too attached to them, though. They are just the beginning."
> _

Daiko:

>"Right. I'm planning on getting better to eventually not rely on this again..."

_{^{//I love how the players are detectives.}}

> "That's good. I would rather not let you put your dirty hands on my gloves again." Kira chuckles.

> "Probably? Maybe. It's certainly not near to a good result." Kira mockingly chuckles. "If you want to do that, not only with that ice fairy, but with anyone who accidentally gets inside you, you will have to work how to pull them out... and using force if necessary."
> "Of course, we'll have to look into why people is getting inside you like crazy for no apparent reason."
> _

[Monarda]

Daiko:

>Stare at the white gloves.
>"Hang on... these white gloves look awfully familiar..."

Daiyousei:

>"Uh, just one question though, is it possible to remotely control an spirit ?"

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>Stare at the white gloves.
>"Hang on... these white gloves look awfully familiar..."

Daiyousei:

>"Uh, just one question though, is it possible to remotely control an spirit ?"

> You look at Daiyousei's white glove. It seems it can fit Daiyousei's measures perfectly. It's only one glove.
> You glove is black and, much like Daiyousei's, yours seemingly can fit perfectly your measures.
> Kira doesn't mind you comment and pays attention to Daiyousei.

> "Remotely, you say? Well..." Kira chuckles once more. "Who knows?"
> _

[Monarda]

Daiyousei:

>"Wonder if that's what happened to that kid spirit..."

Daiko:

>"Oi, Kira, where did you get that white glove ?"

[Tashi]

Daiyousei:

>"Wonder if that's what happened to that kid spirit..."

Daiko:

>"Oi, Kira, where did you get that white glove ?"

> Kira doesn't answer to that.

> "Hm? And what do you care?"
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Because you seem to conviently have a pair of artifacts perfect for this ability. Did you make them yourself?"
