What if You Reincarnate In Black Butler or Earl Cain?

If you ever dreamt of wandering in Black Butler or The Cain Saga, this post is for you! But before getting into it, let yourself immerse into a crazy scenario.

What if it turned out you lost your life in an unfortunate accident one evening—while you had the right of way as a pedestrian, but—as always—some reckless drunk refused to stay put and instead caused havoc?

Naturally, the news saddened all your loved ones, who share in that grief.

 

 

Which My Hero Academia Character is The Best Teammate?

 

 

 

While your physical shell lies carefully laid out in a coffin—where you gaze with sorrow at the pallor of your own face—your soul remains entirely intact.

You were not on the list of souls scheduled for judgment on the day the doctors confirmed your death. Do you remember Yusuke Urameshi from YuYu Hakusho? Good, because you’ve guessed the long journey that lies ahead of you.

However, an anomaly occurs when you hear Adam Kadamon‘s voice (a YuYu Hakusho and Angel Sanctuary crossover—a dream come true) communicating telepathically with your soul to tell you this:

“Given the many sins committed on Earth, your destiny was to spend the rest of your days serving your employer, Lucifer. But since the accident that claimed your life happened sooner than expected, we are offering you a chance to be reincarnated.”

 

The words catch you off guard. You? Destined to work full-time for the Lord of Evil?

It is true that you contributed to actions costing your company millions every time you left a job—because you loved stealing other people’s clients—or that you subjected your partner to psychological abuse, venting work-related frustrations on someone too in love with you to call out your behaviour; or perhaps back when you refused to pay rent for months during winter, claiming that since you’d been laid off, you were entitled to live for free.

 

 

 

Upon reflection, you realise you weren’t exactly the person closest to Toki from the Hokuto school. Yet, you question the words of this Adam Kadamon, armed with a solid argument:

 

There are worse scoundrels on earth. Look at what big corporates do—building data centres that plunge thousands of households into even deeper misery through skyrocketing electricity, water, and internet bills.

 

And you choose not to mention the politicians you suspect are merely different facets of Lucifer—the very man for whom you would have worked endless hours.

Luckily, kind souls had taken pity on you after your tragic fate and offered you a second chance. You accept it gladly when the angel with four pairs of wings utters names that sound vaguely familiar.

 

Earl of Phantomhive or Earl Hargreaves? Choose which of the two you wish to be reincarnated as.

 

Can’t decide which of the two would best suit your new life? Let me help you.

To begin with, there is one important thing you need to know: you are about to take a leap into the past—not just ten years, but several centuries—where you will have the joy and honour of discovering the beauty of England during its glory days, the Victorian-era.

Next, remember that this reincarnation is also a punishment for sins committed during your previous life; consequently, you face the ordeal of choosing which family member will inflict the least mental anguish upon you:

• Earl Cain’s Mary Weather

OR

• Black Buter’s Elizabeth

 

It is a tough choice, but this is a price to pay for the harm you caused, and you realise that this torture is likely more painful than a 3:00 AM staff meeting with Lucifer (and I can tell you upfront he doesn’t look like Angel Sanctuary’s Kira-senpai, but more like the least appealing dude you met in your past life) and his minions (likely dicators you studied in school reunited in one infernal place).

Finally, consider the deciding factor that reveals the true gratitude of those granting you this second chance–despite the choice between the insufferable half-sister Mary Weather and the irritable cousin Elizabeth–the devoted butlers.

 

 

Which Naruto Teams Would You Fit In?

 

 

 

Clad in elegant black suits, with impeccable grooming, manners befitting the most civilised gentlemen, and breathtaking good looks, Sebastian Michaelis and Riff are the two figures who will truly tip the scales.

The difference between the two butlers lies in their nature, though:

• Earl Cain’s Riff is human,
• Black Butler’s Sebastian Michaelis is demonic.

 

With that distinction in mind, tell me, ladies: which of the two—Sebastian, the exquisite demon from Black Butler, or Riff, Earl Cain’s dual-natured assistant and detective—would you want by your side?
