An exorcist with a tailcoat
"My lord, it seems we have gotten another message from her majesty," the butler said as he entered the study with the young master's tea, an envelope sitting next to the cup on the tray.
"Well go on, read it then Sebastian," Ciel said with the usual irritated tone as his butler handed him the cup then proceeded to opening the letter up. He sat back in his chair, sipping at the Earl Grey tea as the man before him read over the contents of the note.
"It appears she has become concerned with a group calling themselves the "Dark Order". Many people have gone missing in situations they have become involved in and she wishes for us to investigate," Sebastian read in summary of the letter, knowing Ciel would read through the details later anyways.
"Alright so what is this "Dark Order" group? Do we have any information on them?" He asked, setting the cup down and folding his hands under his chin as he leaned forward.
"They are calling themselves exorcists,"
"Exorcists? As in people that exorcise demons?" Ciel said suspiciously, not believing that such people existed.
"Not exactly," Sebastian said, collecting the cup again as he thought of how to best explain this to the young master, "these people are armed with powerful weapons called Innocence. It is a powerful tool against a breed of demons called Akuma" He explained and Ciel could have sworn he grimaced at the mention of "Akuma". "Akuma are a very low type of demon, one forged from a human soul by the Millennium Earl that then kills other humans to gain power."
"You seem to know a lot about the subject," Ciel commented.
"Yes, well I have had to deal with these Akuma before⦠they are not exactly a pleasant type of demon. Rather mindless and dull in my opinion, but the Dark Order is newer. I have heard of them but never met an exorcist before," he said, unsure if he really wanted to meet them though.
"Well the orders are from her majesty so we must go take a look. Have the carriage prepped, we leave tomorrow" Ciel ordered.
"Yes, my lord," He responded. "Though if I may add one more thing," Sebastian started, looking over to Ciel for permission to continue which was granted with a small nod. "To truly investigate the exorcists, I believe we will have to infiltrate their headquarters. This means we must become exorcists as well, do you understand?" He asked and Ciel snorted.
"Of course I do, now go get my things ready!" The young boy snapped and with a small bow Sebastian exited the room.
