The Useless 8th Prince

Suspicious Collections and Information

Finishing the party, the young nobles immediately went towards the inn to rest.

At that moment, in the party room there was still a guest left, he was Ciel. The young man told Savian and Ferel to return first while he sat waiting while enjoying the wine.

Ciel looked around. The party room was recently rebuilt. The first time he came, he did not expect that the demons would be this efficient. Without waiting for too long, the Jade Water Castle that had almost collapsed had returned to its original state.

Of course, Ciel knew that rebuilding so quickly required a lot of money and manpower. Apparently, the new Count of the Jadewine Family spent a lot of money to immediately ensure the safety of the territory.

Is correct. Not the Jadeline Family, but the Jadewine Family. According to the information that Ciel got from Savian, the Jadewine Family used to be a wine maker (wine). Of course, until now it still continues and even becomes a big business.

Wine from the Jadewine Family is very famous in South Duchy. There are several types of wine they make. However, the most famous ones were the Green Pearl and the Jade Flower.

The two wines were made from the same base material, which was jade wine. The type of wine that grows in their territory. When compared to some other types of wine, jade wine was slightly less sweet. But it has its own advantages, namely a refreshing taste and a sweet aroma that spoils the sense of smell.

Looking at the semi-transparent green colored wine in the cup, Ciel smiled. This is the famous Green Pearl wine. It is presented to guests as a form of respect. Although it was said to still be inferior to the Jade Flower, Ciel did not hate this wine at all.

Should I also start a winery business? It looks very profitable.

Ciel silently thought, but ended up shaking lightly. He did not want to make too many plans that eventually overwhelmed him. Not to mention, making wine is not as simple as it seems.

However, Ciel was still interested in the way wine was made. Not for business, but made to drink on your own. Types of wine that can be spelled out tonic and medicine. Ciel finally thought about it.

“Sorry to keep you waiting, Prince Luciel.”

Looking towards the source of the voice, appeared the figure of Baxter and a blonde woman. Pretty, but no smile on her face. Ciel had seen it, the woman was Baxter's wife. What made it a bit strange were the few figures behind them.

Melusine, Arachne, and Centaur. All three .. are women.

“Do you feel astonished, Prince Luciel?” ask Savian. “They are my beautiful slaves.”

Indeed, the humanoid part was extremely beautiful. It's just that, seeing some of the bodies in the form of snakes, spiders, and horses .. Ciel was confused to have to comment how. The three also looked to be around 26 to 28 years old. A few years older than Baxter.

“Do not look from age, Prince Luciel. The most important thing is to be beautiful and loyal,” said Baxter.

Hearing her husband's words, Baxter's wife frowned. Seemed dissatisfied, but just silent. The woman looked at Ciel with a strange look. It was as if she was looking at her husband's partner who both had strange hobbies.

“My beloved wife, you come back first. I'll take Prince Luciel for a walk. Remember, if your mouth says strange things ..” Baxter looks at his wife coldly.

The woman nodded with a frightened expression. He even looked at Ciel with an even more frightened expression. To that woman, Ciel was a cold-blooded killer. Rumors of a winter massacre have spread to other regions, leaving South Duchy terrified just by hearing his name.

Seeing the figure of the woman who left rather hurriedly, Ciel fell silent. He even touched his own face.

Am I so scary? Why are you looking at me with that kind of expression! Damnit damnit! What's with the taste of the people in this world!

At that moment, Baxter suddenly said, “It's a small gift, Prince Luciel.”

Ciel took the dimensional pouch. Seeing what was inside, he immediately looked at Baxter. What was inside was 35 barrels of wine. Each barrel contains 5 liters of wine. The ten barrels had a flower emblem, the emblem of the Jade Flower wine. The 25-barrel gravestone is Green Pearl wine.

This person ... really knows how to appreciate people.

“Thank you.” Ciel nodded lightly.

“Hehehe ..it's just the beginning, Prince Ciel.Please follow me.”

Seeing Ciel receiving it, Baxter became even more excited. He immediately told Ciel to follow him.

Following that person, they finally arrived at a door. Ciel had already guessed which door it was leading to. After following him, sure enough, they reached the basement.

Could it be that he would give the aged wine? Hmmm .. doesn't look bad.

Thinking that, Ciel nodded lightly in satisfaction. But what he saw was different from what he expected.

It turned out, inside the basement was made into a room like a prison cell. In every room, there are women. Strangely again ..every woman is a semi-heteromorph.

Ciel immediately looked at Baxter with an extraordinary expression. Not expecting, the figure of the man who looked honest had a strange hobby.

“Actually, it started when I was a teenager ..”

Baxter started telling stories. From his long story, Ciel finally understood the reason for the man's hobby.

At the age of 15, Baxter wanted to have a beautiful slave. However, with the money given by his father, it was not enough to buy beautiful slaves from the ordinary demon race, let alone Succubus or Dark Elves.

Granted, Baxter could buy a woman who looked ‘bias’, but she didn't. Slaves of semi-heteromorph races such as Lamia, Arachne, and lannya are cheaper. At that moment, he finally decided to buy the Lamia slave who had hitherto followed him.

After some time, Baxter started enjoying the sensation of ‘unik’ along with semi-heteromorph races. From then on, he started collecting them.

“One week ago, I got 15 new collections, Prince Luciel. Of course, everything is still in clean condition until now.

The reason I brought you here is so that you choose 5 from my new collection to take home. I hear you have several women of different races around you.

So, I suggest ... semi-heteromorph races are not at all bad!”

Seeing Baxter's fanatical expression, Ciel fell silent. His expression became somewhat grim. He knew that the man intended to do good. It's just, Ciel isn't the type to like such ‘exotis’ things.

Indeed, Ciel did not reject the Heteromorph race because as the owner of the territory, he should be able to become a good leader as well. While thinking of forming a relationship with such a thing. Ciel didn't think about it at all!

Ignoring Ciel, Baxter took out his new ‘collection’. There are four types of races issued by Baxter. Four Lamias, three Arachnes, four Centaurs, and four Harpies.

Ciel was surprised, each of them looked so beautiful. According to Baxter, it was a collection that he was desperately looking for just to welcome him.

Hearing that made Ciel somewhat moved. Only, he felt that such a thing was still wrong. Looking at the enthusiastic Baxter, Ciel smiled bitterly. But at that time, Baxter's next words made him even more surprised.

“After selecting 5, I will give you strange information related to Marquis Bathory.”

Hearing the word ‘Bathory’, Ciel's eyes narrowed. The two looked at each other. No more silly or indifferent expressions. Both men looked serious.
