I'm Gettin Learnt

This sense, this feeling encompassing my soul. With I having felt the bitter cold encroaching on my soul in the void. This sense of filling in my soul stood out like a cozy blanket in the morning chill.

I dont know what gear it is, but what I do know is that I have a chance. An opportunity at furthering myself.

With a push I removed the cloth I used to hide behind. Grabbing the ground I pulled myself out of my hole.

Peering at the ground where the Stray died, I couldn't see any evidence that something died there.

'They're pretty good cleaners, I guess that if being an exorcist doesn't work out that they can go into the cleaning business'

I slowly made my way back to the strays nest, anticipation and unease slowly filling me.

Pushing the last cloth curtain out of my way I entered the room. Laying in the middle of the room, blood drained from the body of the man, a large puddle of blood pooling around the body.

'Sigh'

'I can't believe I'm about to loot a corpse, but he's a magus. To further myself, I need what's on his body'

I pulled some tarp down from the makeshift wall. Laying in across the blood so as to keep myself clean, well physically clean, mentally? 'scoff'

I walked over to the body, I really don't think there is a need to describe how he looks, right? He dead after all.

I reached down and started to do the deet. Not that deet, but you know...

(sigh, me and my dirty mind)

After some ruffling and sifting through the many pockets the man has, like seriously, why does he need so many pockets, most of them are empty.

But the things I found are, Interesting.

First off, the man's got some sort of trash problem, cause I've found so many recipes in his pockets that it's stupid, I would read them but I don't understand German, so no.

Next I found some regular black leather gloves, quite useless to me, but ima keep them just incase they are a mystic code or something. I'm just going to skip the rest of my looting spree and get to what I got. I pulled out a (throat clear), pocket watch, gloves, cigarettes, lighter, monocle, a vial of what looks to be mercury, a pendant with a picture in it, got his wallet that contains his identity and some money from Germany, America and Japan. But the best thing I found and honestly something that made me jump in excitement is a small bag attached to his waist. After some deduction I learned that it functions like a small pocket dimension, it's obviously not one, I think it's simular to the one from harry potter, you know the space expansion charm one? I think that the space inside is expanded and when you go to retrieve something from the bag it automatically places it in your hand. Now I'm not smart or an expert, but... Yeah no, that's how it works, ima stick with that explanation.

So, I removed everything on him. Everything, his clothes as well. It might seem stupid to strip him clean, but this guy was obviously someone important, the leader of those exorcist's was quite displeased with how he was 'eaten', his clothes have to be a mystic code or something cool is attached.

Just realized that I never went over what a mystic code is. To make it blunt and simple it's an item/object that only a magus can create, this item would be created in a way that I have no knowledge of, but how its created will give that object an effect upon use. Let's say for example you had cup of tea, then that cup ran out of tea. Want this to stop happening, mystic code time. Enchant the shit out of your item so that it never runs out. Problem solved, of course it's an all encompassing spectrum thing. In Fate the Marshall Wizard Zelretch created those two wands, you know the two? Well those are mystic codes as well, sure he added some spice called the Kaleidoscope to the bowl when creating them, which in turn gave them unlimited magic energy and a whole shit load of abilities... Moving on!

After I looted everything, it'd time to get the hell out of here, I'm definitely not coming back here, I hope.

After all is said and done I began to make my way back, I've already moved all the things I gathered from the other floors back home, so no need to worry about all that.

I walked out the front door, pulled the bolt cutters out of the bush and walked home. Way to exhausted to do much else, learning about my sacred gear can wait, sleep is what I oh so desperately require.

I closed the door behind me, making sure to set it gently so as to not make the door obvious from above.

With a quick plop I collapsed onto my bed, sleep didn't even have a chance to catch up to me as I entered the world of dreams.

(an alright rest later)

It might be what happened yesterday burned a shit ton of energy or whatever, but after I was done eating my fill I realized that I consumed 3 times my normal amount, which means that my sacred gear needs energy or I'm a weird growing child. It's most likely both, I just need to wait like 45 minutes for my food to reach my stomach and digest before I'll even touch my sacred gear. If it's making me eat more for energy, than that means that it might not even manifest without some wait time.

In the mean time, I think it's time to empty out the very nice magic bag I've recently acquired.

I reached in without anything particular in mine, just gonna let the bag empty itself for me.

Item after item after item, various clothes, metals, alchemical ingredients and more seemed to come out without stop.

'I don't really need to know why he has so much, if I was in his position I'd fill the shit out of the bag to'

After some time I finally pulled the last piece of clothing out. Now I know that I had stripped him for his clothes thinking they were mystic codes, but with how many different sets of clothes I've pulled out... Yeah less said.

With a pile of clothes and a pile of everything else, the only thing that stood out to me were 3 books. I think I'm ready to start on my sacred gear.

I sat down on my bed, letting my mind delve into the present cocoon wrapping itself around my soul.

My mind slowly taking in the object coiling it's self around my soul. Gradually the golden glow began to take shape.

With a clicking sound I felt something take shape around my neck.

Opening my eyes and looking down revealed an old golden necklace with 9 nodes attached, each node housing a small precious stone... What the fuck is it?

It's obviously old and looks to be from around.... Well I can't really tell, I just know that it's old.

I'm gonna have to do something stupid, aren't I.

'sigh... shit'

I re-closed my eyes, letting myself connect to my gear again.

In each of the 9 gems I can feel an energy flowing through each of them, but they each carried their own uniquely feeling energy.

I let my conscious touch on the necklace as a whole, nothing.

I groaned in frustration, my eyes re-opening.

(blink)

Floating in the air infront of me, a screen that I hadn't seen since the void followed my vision.
