In the gloomy, rain-soaked streets of Victorian London, where gas lamps flickered feebly against the encroaching darkness, our protagonist found themselves jolted awake by the deafening crack of thunder. Disoriented, they struggled to make sense of their surroundings. The cobblestone street beneath them was slick with rain, and the air was thick with the scent of wet earth and coal smoke.
Suddenly, the clip-clop of hooves and the rumble of carriage wheels drew their attention. Instinctively, they dived out of the way just as a black carriage barreled past. Panting and soaked to the bone, they rose to their feet, heart pounding.
At first, our protagonist believed they had merely traveled back in time, inexplicably thrown into the past. Determined to make the best of their strange predicament, they used rudimentary methods and limited resources available, all the while trying to blend in and avoid drawing unnecessary attention.
However, their peculiar behavior did not go unnoticed. Word of an enigmatic stranger with unusual habits and knowledge spread quickly through the city's underbelly, eventually reaching the ears of the Earl Ciel Phantomhive. Intrigued and suspicious, the young earl dispatched his loyal butler, Sebastian Michaelis, to investigate.
As Michaelis approached them, the realization dawned on them with startling clarity: this was no mere trip to the past—they had been isekai'd into the world of Black Butler
“Good evening," he began, his voice velvety. "My name is Sebastian Michaelis, the butler of the Phantomhive household. I have been sent by my master, Earl Ciel Phantomhive, to extend his greetings and to inquire about your well-being."
He paused, allowing his words to sink in, his eyes never leaving theirs. "Might I accompany you to a more suitable location where we can discuss matters further? Your presence has piqued my master's interest, and it would be a pleasure to ensure you are properly taken care of during your stay in our fair city."
