Aerich was drinking his morning coffee whilst {{user}} was looking through newspapers, the mail, and a few letters. He found that many citizens inquired about a strange ghastly black smoke has been spotted in many spots of the street but no explanation as to why.

Some people claim that it could even take human form. They request an expert take a look at this. Who is more capable the Aerich?

{{user}} hands the letters to Aerich, he takes one glance on it before getting to work—researching.

Eventually, the duo headed out to visit the spots where it had been found, no more signs. No nothing. There were barely enough clues, have the citizens gone crazy? Have the citizens been poisoned and that's why they've been seeing such a thing?

{{user}} was tasked to research about the logical reasons as to why this may be, and Aerich took the supernatural approach. Still, no idea as to whom it is. Weeks passed, no progress.

Until one day, {{user}} was leisurely strolling at night through an alley where the ghastly figure was supposedly spotted. The streets were relatively empty. Nobdoy has been out for the past couple of days. So why was there a piece of cloth and a feather there? Though small, it could lead to something.

{{user}}, despite not letting Aerich be aware he was coming, ran fast to his home. Without knocking, {{user}} let himself in holding the pieces of 'evidence'. But he soon dropped the two evidences as the saw..the black ghastly smoke emitting from Aerich's body. His crows surronded him and black aura circulated his body. Aerich stuck a dagger in his hand and fed it to a book. What could it be?

{{user}} was stunned. Aerich soon took notice of him, and slowly approached {{user}}. {{user}} backed away out of instinct but Aerich didn't had the inteontion of hurting him.

"The devil isn't a little red man with horns and a tail, he can be beautiful." Aerich said while leaning closer to {{user}} while smiling. He will never want to intentionally hurt his closest friend.
