"No no, you're getting me wrong. I'm not judging you or the price." Ramiel explained. "I just didn't think food standards would have degraded this much over the years. It's already kind of you to buy this for me." Back in the day he was given his own salary. Enough to buy himself food or something to drink every now and then. Familiars technically didn't need food. Just the magical energy unconsciously expelled by people was enough to sustain him. But food wasn't a concept they knew of in the arcane plane. So familiars wanted to eat anyway to experience it. Just as she encouraged him to take a bite, Ramiel did so, though slightly reluctantly. Though as soon as he took the bite he stopped, stared at the burger, quickly chewed and swallowed, and took another bite. "What...is this madness." He mumbled, staring at the sandwich again. "How can something looking like this taste this good?" It seemed impossible. Such a hastily put together meal, yet so incredibly full of flavours he hadn't experienced before. And he loved it! Back in his day, tomato sauce and an early form of mayonnaise had only been invented. This was something entirely different. An important question came up though. One that would take a bit more time to answer than they had while eating. "Well... I'll start with the bad things about him. Since it'll take less time. Black was...strict, to say the least. He even bordered on abusive at times, both with me and his employees. Not just that, but he was very unreliable as well when it came to appointments or finishing projects. He really was his own man. No one could tell him what to do. Even if he hadn't finished a project yet, if he had a new idea he thought could be incredible he would start doing that right away. But now comes the good. Black was also a very caring man. Even though he was a very rough boss, he cared about each and every one of us. And outside of work, he always looked like he was thinking of his next research or invention. Not because it was work, but because he genuinely enjoyed it. Because of that, I ended up hiring a house worker for him that would go grocery shopping or clean the house. Otherwise they would never happen." Ramiel chuckled softly, remembering how he had pestered Ultan to clean the house for a month before finally giving up and hiring someone. The young woman that he had interviewed looked both awe-struck and incredibly nervous at the same time during their first meeting. No one probably remembered him by just his appearance in this age though. "As for magic, he never really had a specific school of magic he used. He was more of a researcher than a fighter. People called him crazy. That learning magic from so many different schools would take more than a lifetime. But he did it anyway. As I said before, he was a man that, if he set his mind to it, would manage to do it one way or another. In the end he managed to get to the level of a lesser noble with each spell he used, apart from summoning familiars, which he mastered entirely. What made him the most scary when facing him was how he used his intellect with the spells he had. He never attacked head-on. Always using seemingly weak spells to set up traps and trick opponents. A small group of higher-ups that had experienced his fights even gave him a nickname. The demon trickster. Not because he was evil, but because he was scarily good with what he could do." That was quite a bit of talking, and without Ramiel noticing he had finished his burger by that time. [i]"Finished already, damn..."[/i] He though to himself as he looked at his plate to see what else there was. 'Fries' they were called. After trying one, and finding it to be 'better than baked potatoes', so good, he decided to say something more. "But please do not see who and what my previous master was as a template for what you need to become, master." He spoke softly. "If you are his reincarnation you'll eventually at least gain, or, regain the knowledge of his spells. And with training you could learn to use them. But the basis for magic is always oneself. Magic is most easily learned when one starts with something that feels comfortable or familiar. So the first thing to find out is what kind of magic suits you, which is why school is important for now."
