Osirus was walking around the great tomb, he had no memories of anything. The only thing he remembers is the word 'Blackstone'. He was just walking around when he stumbled upon an arena.
The two dark elf twins were fighting off some training monsters.
He walked in and saw Aura.
"Oh, hello you are that new guy right?"
"Aye, I was just wandering around-"
Suddenly there was a large wave of power, it flooded the room.
His master called everyone and assigned him to go figure out what it was. No violence, just talking.
He became Oathbound and set off.
It was a long walk since he could not fly. He marched on, intent on finding the source of the magic outburst.
It felt so familiar, but he could not remember.
He arrived outside a large Japanese looking castle, but it looked like an in.
The sign read 'The Morning Star'
Oathbound entered and was surprised to see a girl with black cat ears sitting at what he believed to be a reception desk. She looked familiar like he knew her but did not at the same time. There was a large wolf sleeping next to it.
He walked up to the desk. "Nya~welcome to the Morning Star inn, how can I help you?"
"I am here because I sensed a large magic surge in this location. I was curious."
She seemed to recoil at the sound of his voice. 'No…..no it can't be him…...could it?'
"E-excuse me, sir, could you remove your helmet?"
"I'm afraid I can't do that."
"C-can you tell me your name?"
He was silent for a second.
"My name is Osirus."
"My name is Kuroka"
He was suddenly struck with a strong headache. He placed his hand on his head and stumbled back a bit.
"A-are you ok!?"
"I...i am fine"
He walked out of the inn and went to some nearby trees.
'What was that?'
'Why did that happen?'
His headache got worse.
"Sir?"
He turned around and saw the cat and two others. One of them was an elf with blue hair, the other was a Japanese girl.
"Who are you?" the girl asked with a slight edge to her tone.
Osirus stood to his full height, he was at least a foot taller than them.
"My name is Osirus."
The Japanese girl also recoiled. 'Blackstone' she whispered out loud.
His headache spiked again and this time he fell unconscious.
"What did you do?" asked the elf with an annoyed tone.
"I feel it, but it's weak," said the Japanese girl "The sacred gear, Apollyon's Will"
"Is he…" asked Kuroka with a hint of hope in her voice.
"No" replied the elf "When I used the teleportation spell, I made sure that no one could follow us"
The Japanese girl sighed before turning to the elf "Let's get him in, we'll ask him questions when he's awake"
"Shouldn't we wait for Vali and Arthur?" asked the elf.
"We still have the chains of Tomas de Torquemada" replied the Japanese girl "If he tries to do something, I'll dislocate every bone of his body"
"I'll ask Le Fay to prepare a room on the top floor," said the elf before teleporting away.
"I'll…"
"You'll help me transporting him there" interrupted the Japanese girl.
After some time, Osirus awoke and found himself in a room, a traditional Japanese room.
"You're awake," said the Japanese girl, sitting with a rusty set of chains in her hands "Are you going to attack us, or trying to harm anyone here? Or are you going to fool us like the other one, leaving a never closing scar in a young girl's heart"
"I'm not here searching for trouble," said Osirus as he sat up "I felt a huge amount of magical energy and wanted to investigate it"
"Really?" asked the Japanese girl as she tightened her hold on the chains "Because if you're here to harm any of us…" she then heard cries and sighed "She can't stay asleep for more than 5 minutes" she then got up and left the room.
Osirus could hear some steps, and the elf entered. He must be the one with the huge amount of magical energy his master felt. He has to admit, it was impressive that he wasn't crushed by it now.
"I heard that you're here in peace" stated the elf with a hostile tone "Yet you have the tool of war"
"I'll only attack if you attack me first," said the knight "The only reason why I'm here, it because of your magical energy. It's a huge amount" 'it's not near Lord Ainz's magic, but still huge'
"Is that so?" said the elf as he walked to him "Yet I see a hint of lies in what you just said"
"Why would I be here if not for that?"
"Maybe to kill us as you failed to do last time since we escaped," said the elf with a hard tone "Both Akeno and Shirone were crying torrents because they left what they had precious behind" two white scaled wings appeared on his back "Now, after that, do you really believe that I'll trust a word o-"
"Enough," said the Japanese girl as she entered with a little girl with white hair in her arms "You let your emotions control you again"
"Sorry about that" apologized the elf before leaving.
"Don't hold it against him" said the girl "It's quite hard for him to believe that he will never visit his mother's grave again"
"I see…" replied Osirus, feeling a pang of unknown guilt "Well, no harm has been done"
"However, it doesn't mean that we trust you," she said with a harsh tone "You are free to come here as a customer, nothing more. And if you dare harm anyone of us… you won't like what's going to happen to you"
"You don't seem like bad people," said the knight "But you should know that there's always someone stronger than you" he then left the room.
After some time, she heard knocks on the window and went to see a monkey boy hanging from a branch of a tree.
"So, do you think that's him?" he asked.
"There are some chances, but I'm not sure" replied the girl "How about you, Bikou, did you feel anything coming from him?"
"A similar power, but not the same used by the one who caused us to flee here" answered Bikou.
"You're just happy that you still have the Gorgona Oak, aren't you?" asked the girl with an annoyed face.
"Yup" smirked Bikou.
"I'll get Hiromi something to eat, and hopefully, she'll sleep for at least ten minutes" sighed the Japanese girl before leaving.
Osirus walked down the hall. 'They spoke as if they knew who I was. I have never seen them before now.'
He saw the cat girl from before.
"Excuse me"
She turned to look at him.
"Yes"
"You all spoke as if I had done something horrible to you all. To my knowledge, I have never seen any of you."
"We thought you were someone else. His name was Deven…."
"Oh no….." he fell to his armored knees.
"W-what's wrong?"
"When I first awoke here in this world, the only thing I could remember was the word, Blackstone. And the name Deven Barnes."
"W-what…"
"I was given a new name. Osirus. Any time I try to remember, I get a strong headache."
This was either very bad, or good. Kuroka needed to tell Kumiko that this was indeed Deven.
