The Detective of the Dead

Merry Meet

  We entered the castle of our coven. Some of my friends greeted us. They waved my hand to me. 

"Merry meet, Agnis!" 

 "Namaste, merry meet to you everyone!" 

 "Agnis? Your nickname?" 

 "Maybe but we called it witch name. We get our witch names from our deities, characters from epics and mythologies. Everyone here have it. Someday you will have it." 

 A beautiful girl with red hair and golden eyes approached me. 

 "Merry meet, Agnis!" 

 "Merry meet, Freya." I replied. 

 She saw my little friend. 

 "Is that your child?" 

 "Uhm... No, he's just my friend." 

 "Yup! I'm not his son." said the boy. 

 "Is that so? How's life?" she smiled. 

 "I'm fine, how about you?" 

 "Good! It's good. Anyway, why are you here?" 

 "I want to enroll my little friend here." 

 "Oh! A new student!" she patted the boy. 

 "Leo, I will leave you here, okay?" 

 "I will be fine. Just visit me when you are free." 

 "Merry part. We may merry meet again." I said. 

 I patted the boy. 

 "Hey, Freya. Can I borrow a mount?" 

 She whistled loudly. A big eagle landed in front of us. 

 "Of course, here is my eagle." 

 I mounted to the big and alive vehicle. I hardly keep my balance. While preparing for take off, I farewell to them. 

 "Merry meet, merry part and we may merry meet again!" I shouted. 

 There is no saddle but there is a belt as handle so I can keep myself on the top. When we are on the sky, the ride is fun and fast. The wind whispers to my ear and I avoided some pigeons but one hits my face. 

 "Ouch!" I cried. "My intuition doesn't noticed that. Anyway, intuition is not instant." 

 "Hahah!" the eagle laughed at me. 

"Horus, diminish the altitude when we are near to the city." 

"Roger that, Agnis!" replied the Eagle.

 When we are near to civilization, I jumped like an action star, or like a cat. I have shoes with cushions inside so there is less impact on jumping.
