Fantasy Nirvana: The Rise of Kagutsuchi

H.A.M
(Haruna Oda, Anna Hiromiya, Mayumi Igarashi)

Anna felt a very weird sensation when her vision starts to "glitch out" for a moment. When it got back to normal, she could now see why her companions freaked out. "Holy @#%$! A talking crow!" She yelled, despite the talking bird's explanation about what he is. He then explains that its a low-class spell to disguise himself as a human to the eyes of other, except for supernatural being and those who hold items of the supernatural. He then asked a question, prompting Anna to answer "Well, no. Ain't the first time to see a talking bird, let alone a GOOD talking bird if you know what I mean. Its just that, as the lady said, your presence caught us off. By the way, who are you? I'm guessing you're here for that cult thingy, right?"

"The name's Quasar, and yeah, you could say I'm here for the cult thingy. Doing a bit of snooping myself," the bird - Quasar - says. "Places like these - places that still hold belief in old deities, they're a rarity these days. It's always worth looking into, even if you can hardly find air conditioning. Places like these go under the radar of the public real easily, so a lot can happen here, and I for one had some help in learning a tad bit of history about the place, and let me just say that it's not something the Internet can help you with."

" I see, Quasar. Well, we will be glad for any help that you can give us." Kaoru replied.

🎪 Nolan Adkins ​

Kaoru had smiled at him and with it acceptance, and formal invitation to stick with the rest of them and their important missions. It was like, suddenly having a family??? The lighting of the bar reflected into a wet layer over the soft blue, he had been about to cry again, this time quickly drying his hopeful eyes against the jacket's sleeves. Before he could have replied anything, however, the blonde lady from before had shown up again, which was... good actually, because now he could properly calm down instead of having another emotional disruptive moment in front of everybody.

"Heya there~!", the little clown perked up like the flip of a switch, waving at her direction, "Did you find your criminals and gun bullets?", Laura had never said anything about that, it had just been his assumption of 'danger' since their first interaction. Oh well...

The young woman would introduce herself, in two different manners, having decided to stay after seeing Kaoru's dragon claw over the table. Apparently that wasn't supposed to be there, judging from how the older woman had reacted by quickly turning it back into a normal hand. It seemed like Laura was also a demon hunter like Haruna was! Did they know each othe- Oops! Apparently just by name. Huh, how interesting that they had the same job but never met before. Were there really that many bad demons to catch?
Nolan wasn't sure how to take the other's warning, he felt a bit too jiro-jiro ^(stared) at for a moment, curling with nervousness. The tone was a bit too heavy now... But, all he did was silly puns, theatrical antics and the occasional pie on face gag and stuff like that! And that was okay, wasn't it? Oh! And play the pocket horn too, can't forget that one, it was the boy's favorite after all~~

"While we're still at it, does the name 'Cult of Kagutsuchi' ring a bell to any of you?"​

You know, if it wasn't such a dire-sounding matter, the question would have been rather humorous. Yep, apparently everyone was visiting this place because of this Kagutsuchi! But him. To which Nolan had laughed softly in awkwardness once Kaoru had pointed it out to their new demon hunter friend. Mr. Out of the Loop over here was, well, out of the loop just as expected...

And that's when a person-sized black bird joined too, handling a drink while all zuru-zuru ^{(slurping loudly)} at it. Intrigued, the little blonde had stopped everything else to find the source of the masculine voice, then focusing on the avian creature with utmost attention. Seemed like he was the one doing the jiro-jiro now! Were birds this size normal? The boy couldn't say for sure as he didn't have that much experience with birds. Though the fact that it talked was probably an indication of it not being the case. Unless talking birds existed and he had not interacted with them yet.

"It's good stuff, their iced tea", it spoke to them with a content tone, "Especially after all the ice melts. You guys ever had it?"​

"I don't think we have... Well, to be honest, we don't really eat or drink.", the boy had replied seemingly not too bothered about the idea of the huge bird. Though probably by ignorance more than anything, "Can you describe it?? What does it taste like?"

"Do you not see? That's a large talking crow!", Haruna had said to Anna with shock. So it really wasn't normal to have talking birds then...?
"Crow? Doesn't look like one to me."​

"Uhh, what's a crow?", Nolan had interjected with a tilt of his head. It didn't look like he was jesting about it either, it was absolutely a legitimate question which only got repeated after the correction, "Ah sorry! Then what's a jackdaw?"

Well, whatever it was, it talked a lot. About many many things that the circus clown did not understand: disguise spells, more taking birds? --Were talking birds normal or not???--, The teen got all fura-fura ^{(dizzy, confused)} from trying to make sense of subjects he lacked all the knowledge and context to even begin grasping properly... Ugh, suddenly existence didn't feel too pleasant.

As the crow/jackdaw had introduced himself as Quazar, which was a rather pretty-sounding name, Nolan had his head to the side, glancing at the ceiling as he waited for the terrible sensation to pass. The conversation continued and a new string of still unknown ideas swept-by, while at the same time the avian informed he too was interested in the whole cult matter, in some way. What a small world. Sadly all the boy could 'contribute' to the exchange with was...

" 'Not something the internet can help'?? What's an 'internet'?", ...even more unneeded questions. Welp.
