The Useless 8th Prince

Dragonborn

Ciel looked at the figure in front of him. It looks like a human being standing on two legs, but has scales all over the body as well and a lizard-shaped head with horns. His entire body was filled with muscles and also had sharp nails. Moreover, there were two bat-like wings and a long tail behind his body.

Looking at the figure equipped with leather armor while carrying a spear on his back and carrying a few large fish in his hand, Ciel blinked. He had not expected to see such a rare figure in a remote village like this.

“You're finally back, Clark.” Zod's voice sounded from behind Ciel.

Because Ciel did not want to be driven out of the forest, the Centaurs escorted him to the door of their village.

“I'm back, Brother.” The dragonborn named Clark nodded as he said politely.

Brother???

Hearing how Clark called out to Zod, the corner of Ciel's lips twitched. He was confused to comment how.

“Include, Prince Luciel, this is my sister .. Clark.” Zod immediately introduced.

“Prince Luciel? What will help us, Brother?” Clark tilted his head as he looked at Ciel. “So short?”

Indeed, compared to Centaur who was half a horse, Dragonborn who was more than two meters, or Minotaur like Asterious. Yet amongst demons his age, he was already considered quite tall. The young can still develop until the age of more than 20 years.

Hearing Clark's honest words, the corner of Ciel's lips twitched.

“Apologies to Prince Luciel, Clark! Don't look at his appearance. Indeed the demons are not as big or as tall as us, but they have extraordinary strength.”

“I'm sorry, Prince Luciel.” Clark scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. He really acted like a submissive sister.

“Clark is a mutated Lizardmen, so please understand him if it's a bit shallow-minded, Prince Luciel.” Zod immediately apologized for his sister.

The lizadmen? With a large muscular body? And those wings too?

Damnit damnit! I felt like the IQ I had dropped instantly when talking to them.

Although the Lizardmen were a bit similar to the Dragonborn, the Lizardmen race was rather short, even if they had muscles, their bodies were slim. Not to mention .. The Lizardmen cannot possibly have wings.

“It's okay.” Ciel said relax. “Clark, right? Is she really your sister?”

“Hehehe.” Zod scratched the back of his head. “Clark is my sister. He was found by his father when he was very young. He was adopted and became my sister. Yes ... although many people do not like it.”

The last sentence was spoken slowly, but Ciel still heard it. Upon seeing Clark, Ciel nodded. Although Clark had the same level as the chieftain that was level 4 (early), because he was not a Centaur, the people in the tribe did not consider him to be one of them.

Such things are common in the environment. In fact, in the modern world Ciel lived before, if you were a little different from the people around the neighborhood, you would be ostracized. .. They are both human.

“How about father, Brother?” ask the worried Clark.

“Daddy is fine now. Thanks to Prince Luciel's potion, the poison had already improved. He will recover after a few days.”

“Is that true?” Clark immediately turned his head towards Ciel with an astonished expression. Bending forty-five degrees, he exclaimed, “Thank you very much, Prince Luciel!”

Hearing such a heartfelt thank you, Ciel felt somewhat guilty. He actually had a very effective potion to heal the chieftain. Merely, as a businessman, the young man actually gave the chief 10 mid-level potions that could heal and recover after five days of consumption, twice a day.

Damnit damnit! I feel so stingy.

Ciel smiled bitterly. He then shook his head lightly as he said, “It is my duty to protect the citizens that are below me.”

“Crice?” Clark was confused.

“Be careful on the way, Prince Luciel.” Zod said sincerely.

Ciel's figure gradually moved away and disappeared into the forest.

...***...

Arriving at the village, Ciel was surprised to see the panicked citizens.

Upon seeing himself return, the crying Theo actually ran towards him. Not only Theo, Shana, Zenara and the knights looked worried and scared as he suddenly disappeared.

“That's important I've returned safely, right?”

Ciel who was already in a temporary residence and sitting on the sofa looked at Theo who was still crying.

“Hiks! Hicks! T-But .. but I'm really afraid something bad happened to you, Mr.” Theo tried to wipe away the tears that kept flowing.

“Are you sure .. Theo really not your son, Mister?”

Hearing Shana's question, Ciel who was drinking tea immediately choked. He immediately looked at Shana with warning, making the woman speechless.

“By the way ... You don't want to meet the Centaur tribe, Zenara? Aren't you guys the same race and supposed to be more familiar?”

“No, Sir. I was born outside the tribe. My mother was a slave, maybe my grandmother was too. So I have no sense of ownership towards tribes like Centaur in general.” Zenara said in a calm voice.

“It ...” Ciel was speechless, speechless.

Looking at Zenara's figure well, he let out a long sigh. Smooth white skin, pretty face, blue irises like the ocean, and wavy blonde hair with horse-like ears that looked rather cute. Coupled with his expanding chest more than Ciel's lovers, had it not been a white horse-like form but long and smooth legs.

Absolutely vain.

Thought Ciel while shaking lightly. He knew the reason why Zenara, mother, or even grandmother were made slaves and sold. It was obvious because they looked beautiful. For the owner of a special hobby, they must be very interesting. Only, Ciel did not have such a special hobby.

“It's okay, My Lord. I am used to the life of the child. I even feel lucky to be born like this and eventually become your subordinate.”

It is true, the more beautiful the slave, the sellers will take good care of him and make sure he stays clean to sell at a high price. Although unlike ordinary demon slaves, the semi-heteromorph race that had body parts like beautiful women was still popular.

Yes ... This is a world of demons. For them, this might be normal.

Ciel thought secretly. As a person from the modern world, he clearly felt a bit strange. But he wasn't too surprised. After all, he had previously seen a buffalo who fell in love with a water snake.

After spending the afternoon to relax, Ciel immediately gathered all his men including the knights after dinner. Looking at the marching troops, Ciel nodded lightly.

“Because the source of the problem has been found, we will solve it. Tomorrow morning we leave. I personally brought you guys to be judged, so .. don't let me down!”

“According to your order, Mister!”

Looking at the knights who had smoldering gazes, Ciel raised the corner of his lips in satisfaction. He can't wait for tomorrow.

Waiting to fight the creatures that are making trouble in the outer circle of the forest.
