[Black Butler] REVERSI

The man stepped forward as he said, but the door opened from the inside first, and the deacon in black came out with an apologetic expression on his face.

"I'm sorry, I was a little busy in the afternoon, so I couldn't greet you two in time."

"you are?"

"I'm just a (demon) deacon."

This is his answer, that strange face does not exist anywhere in his memory, the young man thinks of the old servant at home, and guesses the possibility of the replacement of old and new, and the steward medal on the deacon's left chest makes him even more sure this conjecture.

"……your name?"

"Guests can just call me Sebastian."

"what?"

"What's the matter, master?"

"My dog ​​is also named that."

"..."

"Cough, please come in for a cup of tea, both of you, and let me report..."

"No need, where is he?" The boy asked, of course, the person the deacon wanted to report.

"...Young master is in the yard."

"Well, you all stay here." Nodding, the boy winked at the demon around him.

The man stepped forward to stop the deacon, and the boy let the two of them walk forward.The heels of the shoes stepped on the clean and transparent floor tiles, making a crisp sound, which became clearer in the wide aisle.

Brush past the familiar carvings, walk to the end, pass through the door, and you will find the courtyard you often visit.

The afternoon sun is mild and not glaring, which is the most suitable for taking a nap. The boy stepped forward and found that the person in the backrest had his eyes closed and was dozing leisurely.

The huge difference in height made it impossible for his feet to touch the ground easily, even if his legs were crossed like a master Ren Chong, he couldn't change his immature childishness.

Maybe it was because the sunshine was too gentle and comfortable, when he came to him, the man was still not awake.The boy didn't make a sound to break the silence, and sat next to him with light movements.

After a long time, the man's eyelashes fluttered and showed signs of waking up.The boy continued to look at him calmly until he opened his eyes.

In a daze, the man smiled at him, naturally unpretentious as if he woke up from a nap every time.

"Xia... Er?"

"..."

"Are you back?" He asked him, but he didn't seem to be waiting for his answer, his eyes were blurred, and he twirled the ring on his thumb.

The boy looked at the blue color without being overly surprised. He glanced at his right eye covered by the black eyepatch, and subconsciously tilted his head.

"Hey, I..." He murmured, but he didn't know where to start.The boy smiled at him encouragingly, motioning him to continue.

"I inherited my father's title and became the head of the Phantom Hein family, the queen's dog..."

One title after another seemed to show off, but the young man didn't feel a trace of jealousy, watching him speak more and more sadly, he also became sad.

"I will find out...Father, mother, and you, I will let those who have defiled the Phantomhine family experience the same humiliation and pain as us...Now, Charles, if you can speak more Come back and see me, okay? Even in a dream... no, forget it..." Complex emotions appeared on his face, and he overturned all the words in an instant.

The boy wanted to promise him, but he opened his mouth and made no sound.

He thought he was dead, on that blood-stained sacrificial altar, but it was not the case, he was still alive, and signed a contract with the devil.Those people slaughtered hundreds of lives, trying to use blood sacrifices to summon things, heard his call.And he, at the price of his own soul, kept the demon.

He thought he could rely on the power of the devil to take revenge, but he walked ahead of him, and put all the burden that should have been on his shoulders on his thin shoulders.And his appearance is bound to disrupt all of this, making all his efforts go to waste.

Therefore, he should be a 'dead man' in peace, not an executioner who destroys other people's achievements.

After dissecting everything, the boy decided not to speak anymore, just watched him quietly, waiting for time to pass.His luck was not bad, and the man closed his eyes again not long after.

All the handover matters in the past few days must have made him very tired, and the black and blue under the eyelids looked even more shocking on the pale skin.Because of this, the teenager found an opportunity to facilitate this dream and make the falsehood real.

He got up and left the seat, passed through the bright sunlight and disappeared into the darkness. When he walked back to the hall, the man and the deacon were no longer at war with each other. The two were chatting happily, with smiles of unknown meaning.

The man approached the boy in a few steps, straightened his collar, and then retreated to the back. His decent behavior really had the feeling of a deacon.

The young man gave him a look, the man nodded, and then said goodbye to the deacon.The young man took the opportunity to carefully look at the deacon in black, and made a preliminary assessment of him from the bottom of his heart.

"Excuse me..." He casually said official words, and when the deacon looked over, the boy nodded to him.

"Although it's a pity that I couldn't meet the Earl, but I was lucky enough to meet Mr. Sebastian, and this trip is not in vain. I have offended you so much today, and I hope Mr. Sebastian will not take it to heart."

"Where, you are serious."

The two sides spoke hypocritical words that refuted the facts, but unexpectedly coincided with each other. The young man took a few steps forward and left the mansion of Phantom Hein's family with the demon.

Along the way, the man unexpectedly didn't speak, but the boy found the topic first.

"Sebas...that deacon of Phantom Hein's house is a devil." Asking the man beside him in a positive tone, the boy was very sure.

In less than one month, it was not something ordinary people could do to restore the Phantom Hein family to its former glory.

"Young Master, don't you already have the answer in your heart?"

"I'm just looking for you to check... But judging by your reaction, you shouldn't be wrong."

"Oh?"

"The way you and him cherish each other, it should be some kind of agreement."

"Quanzhong, the young master is really smart." He boasted exaggeratedly, the man's words and deeds were full of hypocrisy.

The boy looked at him unmoved, and asked again.

"About me and the Count?"

"Yes." The man replied, looking at the boy with some expectation, waiting for him to continue.

The young man glanced at him sarcastically and then turned his eyes away, with deep disappointment in his heart.

"You won't get what you want."

"Ok?"

"Brothers killing each other will never happen to us." It wasn't a decision made with pain, but something that was never possible. The young man looked in the direction of no one with firm eyes.

"Status and status are not important. From the beginning to the end, there is only one head of the Phantomhine family—Charles Phantomhine." Smiling calmly, the boy said the name.

"This name is a code name, and he inherited this code name and became the head of Phantom Hein's family. I... never thought of fighting with him." Turning back, looking into the man's eyes, the word "boy" State your position clearly.

"so?"

"No reason." The boy replied angrily showing his temper as a child.Noticing the lightness in the man's words for a moment, the young man suddenly realized.

"Damon, you?"

"Because the contract between the young master and me is not something boring, isn't it? Your wish is revenge, and no matter what your status or status is, you can't shake this fact."

"Um……"

"I am the most favorable card in the young master's hand. No matter how unfavorable the opening situation is, as long as I am still around, I can turn the situation around and let the young master continue to play."

"Ah."

"So, young master, please cheer up, we have to think long-term."

"...Demon." The man's thorough analysis made him a little upset, but the boy couldn't find a loophole to refute, so he stretched out his hand to him.

"I'm tired."

"Yes, let's go back now." Picking up the boy, he put his arm around his neck.Men shuttled through the bushes.The boy buried himself in the man's arms and closed his eyes in peace.

This time, he slept very peacefully, and the boy didn't wake up until the man patted himself.

"Here we are, young master."

"Ah."

"Do you want to eat something first?" The man is well aware of the fixed diet of human beings. Three meals a day with afternoon tea and supper are indispensable for noble humans. Old habits cannot be changed in a short while.

Men don’t want teenagers to be unable to keep up with their peers in growth and development due to shrinking food. Although he himself is terrible at cooking, for the growth of teenagers, men don’t mind learning.

"No, I'll talk about that later, take a shower first." Pulling off his collar, the boy was already heading for the bathroom in the mansion. After running around for a day, the dust all over his body made him feel very uncomfortable.

However, after walking a few steps, the young man stopped at one spot, and after the man drained the water, he saw the young man in a trance.

"Master, what are you looking at?"

"Oh, I think yours is quite unique except for the poor lighting."

"Huh? How do you say it?"

"Look, these things are definitely not found in ordinary people's homes. If they are open for viewing, they can charge a lot of money." There are coffins and skeletons. Only funeral shops will display such unlucky things. A young man Looking at it, I suddenly wanted to poke the man's spine with it.

"..."

"Why don't you use them to hold a masquerade ball, and then invite those noble masters, wives, and ladies."

"..."

"Demon, let's do it." The young man believed in the ability of his own demons, and at the same time, he also clearly understood the curiosity of the nobles about common people's things. The more unusual things are, the more they will be attracted.

The large-scale confinement and massacres of the Black Mass are definitely supported by prominent aristocrats behind the scenes. If you want to track it down, you must start with the nobles with status and status. This is the only way to find it.

"However, before that, help me check someone first."

"...Young master, what do you want to investigate?"

"Aleister Champa, commonly known as Viscount Dorit."
