It's been a while since Nobuyuki was on a serious mission. Well.. This was not a mission granted him by others. It was more like self imposed mission. He was looking for his sister's, Otsu's killer. A villain. But sadly he didnt know anything about her look or her name. Only thing he knew that she had an ability to "scourge the earth" and she was at Mount Hotakadake in Matsumoto 5 years ago. There were lots of rumours about her and Otsu's battle but all those stories were highly unrealistic. Even though grew up studying Onmyodo with his sister, he still couldnt believe such stories could be real. But at the same time there was nothing else on his hands to continue his search with.
While he was going around Tokyo and diggin some info on vigilantes and villians he found a person who do odd jobs and help people any way he can. He decided to contact that person "Kent" and meet with him at Fourth Corner so they can discuss this special matter better. He would take any help he can get to find his sister's murderer. This is why i became hero afterall... His family was a noble family with lots of influence. He had to stay underground while doing this search, that was the reason he chose such a crowded place like Fourth Corner. Also finding someone else to help him would be the best course of action. It would throw his family's attention to wrong way.
This place was full of people so it'd be hard to follow them or listen them in anyway.
His family was ashamed of Otsu's dead so they didnt want him to dig that subject more. But for him, his sister was like a goddess he looked up to. An idol. No way he could just stay silent. As he thought about it he clenched his fist while waiting for Kent. He didnt know if they could come into agreement but he still have to try. At the very least he might be able to use his connections. |

The idea of meeting a customer outside of his usual store is weird. He’s far more comfortable talking in his shop with the customer or through phone...but for these kinds of jobs it’s far better to meet in person. And if they don’t want to meet in the shop and instead in another place, then so be it. His shop be damned. Yeah, it’s one of those jobs. Usually he’ll send over his lovable muscleheaded idiot to deal with it...but this isn’t really a physical labor. It’s more of a planning phase.
You don’t discuss the full set of details over the phone. You only have to mention that he wants to find someone and he gets it. Doesn’t even have to specify why you want to find this person. Fair enough, it’s rare but possible enough that someone would be listening in. It’s a once in a blue mood chance, but a chance nevertheless. It’s also nice that he set up an actual place to go to. Apparently Brandon went here, said that a customer mentioned this place once. It was a quaint music place serving drinks. He doesn’t really drink, but hey. Nice that the option is there. Might as well bring out the bag.
He looks for the customer. He gave a basic description: white hair. Well that’s kinda vague- oh wait there he is. Huh...that was weird. Well...to be fair...this guy does seem like the kind of person who would give a blunt description of himself. His one eye shines brightly at him. Perhaps that’s why he thought this was the guy. His fist was clenching hard.
“You hires me?” He swore he saw him nod. He slowly gets the chair to sit down with him. “Alright then...Nobuyuki...is it?” He adjusts the goggles on his neck, then pulls out a laptop out of his bag. “...Tell me about the person you want to find, and why.” He slightly opens his crimson eyes more. “Anything can work. Although, I don’t mind why you want to find them if you don’t want to...it just makes my job faster.”

"Yes, I'm Nobuyuki" he nod. So this is the guy... Straight to business. he thought as he wait him to settle in. He liked that professional attitude. It shows how much he cares about his jobs which means their chance to find the murderer was higher.
"In order to make you understand depths of my problem first i have to start from beginning. This might take a time so please take it easy while i'm telling." just as he said that he light a cigarette, "Hope you dont mind, i promise i wont let smoke get to you" he said as he tried to smile kindly
"Did you ever heard about Onmyodo, Mr. Kent? Well, what Onmyodo is doesnt matter right now. All you need to know about is that there have been different people and different families served Daimyo's and Shogun in our history to expel demons and do divinations for them." After taking a breath from his cigarette he continued. "I'm a member of one of those families, known as Kamiya. So while searching for missing person you have to be careful not to get caught by them. Things... can get really ugly lets say. They're against this research as they believe such "failure" will tarnish their name. And they can be real troublesome thanks to their connections." After waiting few seconds to make sure Kent understand the situation he continued. "My sister, Otsu, received a mission to expel a demon that lived in Mount Hotakadake of Matsumoto 5 years ago. Sadly after her depart, 10 days later, we received news about her death. After investigating the situation we learned that that was not a demon, but a villain who fought and killed my sister." This was hard on him so he stay silent for few second. Remembering his sister, the time he spend with her. "Sadly i dont have the name of the villain, only thing i have is folk tales by villagers who saw their fights. Now this tale has so many unnatural elements in it, explaining it in natural manner falls on us."
"According to villagers, their battle started 2 days after my sister Otsu entered to mountain. First there was a fire so big it scorched an entire area like a hell fire, and after that an ear deafining cry was heard. Now, that cry was my sister's lightning quirk. Which means the one with fire ability was the villain." Nobuyuki stopped his story for moment to give Kent some time. After that he continued again "Villagers told their fight continued for 3 days, which i'm not sure if it's lie or truth. But they told many different things happened during that time. A ring from fire was created in the mountains and noone was able to pass it. Flames were not red but blue, which means their temperature was high. This informations are probably related to her quirk so it might prove useful."
"At the end of day 3 they saw a lady who passed through fires and descended from mountain covered in blood. She was tall and her figure was slender, her eyes and her skin had reddish appearence. Her golden colour hair was reaching to her torso, she was wearing a short red dress. After she left, the fire on the mountain was gone with her. This was the time villagers reached to my sister, covered in bruses, some part of her body was totally burned. If it wasnt for her white hair they wouldnt be able to understand who she was at all. They called the villain "Kosenjoubi", but i'm not sure if she calls herself this."
Nobuyuki knew this was a tough one. He didnt had any information other than her appearence and he was not sure if that was enough or not. "Surely there must be someone with similar quirk and appearence. Right?" he asked to Kent. |

A village in the modern era, a demon, and a red dress lady. It sounds to him as if it was all part of a show. But he knew better than to think that. Moderinzed villages still exist to this day, and folklore can still have a strong grasp on one's society to the bitter end. To be able to influence the upbringing with folk tales and ballads about demons...he's kinda jealous. He would have loved to hear more about this guy's family history, if it not were for the tragic circumstances of why he was hired in the first place.
Family loss is always horrible. If only he knew what his family was, maybe he would show a bit more sympathy. But the best he can muster up are his condolences and a solemn nod. One of the drawbacks of retrograde amnesia, some might say. If he remembered, perhaps, he wouldn't be having a stoic face right now. But perhaps that was the right move to make. Right now he's on a serious job.
"...Alright then." He turns on his laptop. "...I'm sorry about your sister...I really am. Don't worry, I'll make sure to find this person." He gives off a small smile, then looks at his laptop. "As for your missing person…"
"If we assume it's 3 days, then that means we could assume something. It was intentionally drawn out. Your person may have a sort of sadistic streak in her. Or maybe it's how the way her quirk works." Kent ponders out loud. "if your village resides in a more rural area, then the first course of action would be to look around there." He then crosses his arms. "But if you already looked there, you wouldn't be here, huh. So that means they escaped."
"Here's what I think. They used their flames to hide their trails. Were there any burnt trails found around the area that could lead into that theory?"
