The Useless 8th Prince

I'm Clearly Deceived

“You looking for me, Mister?”

Ronn who was first in the study and first entered the main building of the castle looked nervous. Plus Ciel who just looked at him silently, the young man grew even more nervous. He tried to remain standing straight without trembling.

“Ronn ..”

“Ya, Sir!”

“You yourself definitely understand what the members got in the three main divisions.”

“Ya, Sir!”

“Although salaries are the same, they get better training, more nutritious food, and even occasional potions. You definitely understand ... sooner or later they will overtake the old forces and leave them in terms of strength.”

“...” Ronn who understood that could only shut up.

“Not to mention, the ages of the soldiers from the three new main divisions are still teenagers. Without me saying, you must know what.” means Ciel stared fixedly into Ronn's eyes. “Although your age is more than those of the three major divisions and your talent is quite bad, I can move you there.”

Hearing Ciel's words, Ronn's eyes suddenly became brighter. He looked nervous as well as excited.

“Of course I won't do it for free.”

“Ya, Sir!”

Ronn understood, there is no free lunch in this world. There are only mutually beneficial relationships with each other. He's also ready if Ciel tells him to go on a dangerous mission.

“If you want to become one of the members of the new division, I will give you a mission. That mission was to help Asterious in Blackrock City. Of course, as a person who knows Kun well enough, you understand quite a lot about government, right?” Ciel raised the corner of his seedling.

Ciel understands quite a lot about Ronn. Like Kun, although his talent is not good, but they have quite good ability in managing and organizing things. Not to mention, they were the type that was very obedient to the rules. The figure that made Ciel feel quite satisfied.

“Go to Blackrock City?” muttered Ronn.

Ciel understood what made Ron think out loud. Go to a City filled with Heteromorph races. It might make it less comfortable because it will not be easy to adjust there.

After thinking for a moment, Ronn finally gritted his teeth while saying, “I am ready to accept this mission, Mr.”

“You don't have to think too hard. If you understand it well, you definitely want this position more. The reason is simple, even though the position means to be a maid Asterious, if you pay attention, it means that you become an advisor to the regional ruler.”

“Advisor of the ruler of the region ..” muttered Ronn. His eyes suddenly became increasingly bright and excited,

“Yes. I'm also sure, you're quite familiar with Asterious. He won't treat you badly.” Ciel said casually.

“Thank you very much, Mister!”

Ronn was so flattered. He had not expected such an opportunity to be present in his life. If he refuses, there is something wrong with his head.

“Then we finalize the contract and discuss your duties. You will leave three days later.”

“Good, Master!”

...***...

At the training ground behind the castle's main building.

Asterious and Clark faced each other in the arena. Meanwhile, off the field, Ciel seemed to be sitting in a reclining chair while enjoying a refreshing fruit juice. As Ariana and Camellia are busy taking care of her work, Isabella is standing behind Ciel.

In addition to them, there is also Ronn who will be the referee. In addition to trying to reacquaint himself with Asterious, Ciel told him to start getting to know Ciel's most loyal subordinates.

Hearing that, Clark and Asterious went straight ahead. When the two were within striking distance, Clark swung his spear. Seeing that, Asterious grinned. He instantly repelled the spear attack with an axe in his hand.

Asterious who was with Ciel for quite a long time had a lot of training and real combat experience. Clark's spear attack was just like a child's attack in front of him. While the right hand carrying the ax repelled Clark's attack, Asterious directly hit Clark's stomach with his left hand.

The attack was powerful enough to make Clark bounce and roll a few meters. Clark immediately got up and continued attacking Asterious, but the result was the same. He kept getting hit and rolling on the ground.

Asterious who saw Clark continue could only shake his head. He instead used the axe as a shield and only attacked Clark with punches or kicks. Because, if using an axe, the fight would instantly end.

Although the two of them had not much different levels, the way to use their energy and abilities was very different. When compared it is like a Kindergarten child and a Junior High child. Why SMP and not SMA? Because to Ciel, he still felt Asterious had many flaws.

Ciel who saw that one-sided fight could only sigh deeply. He felt it was very boring and grumbled inwardly.

Because you have hard scales, it doesn't mean you can fight without thinking like that Clark. Damnit damnit! So fruitless. Just seeing him is so annoying.

“Enough.” Ciel said with a dissatisfied expression.

“Eh? But I have not lost, Mister?” Clark tilted his head with a foolish expression.

“Then what are you waiting for? Running out of energy and losing? Clearly Asterious was still holding back and not using an axe to attack. Are you stupid?” Ciel immediately said with dissatisfaction.

“Hehehe ..” Clark scratched the back of his head with an embarrassed expression.

The corner of Ciel's lips twitched.

This fucking lizard …

God, why after the buffalo slightly raised his IQ, I have to take care of a lizard that's more stupid than a buffalo? Why is! Damnit damnit! I'm not a kind of teacher!

Satisfied with cursing inwardly, Ciel immediately walked towards the field. Approaching Asterious, he directly slapped Asterious until his face hit the ground hard.

“Stop being arrogant. You are still many loopholes and can die at any time on the battlefield. Do you want Moomo and Marina to be widows?”

Asterious who got up shook his head, looking slightly dizzy. He was at a loss as to why his master had directly beaten him so viciously. But after hearing his master's words, Asterious finally came to his senses.

“Pardon my carelessness, Mister!” Asterious replied firmly like a veteran.

“Good,”

Ciel nodded in satisfaction. He then turned his attention to the stunned Clark. Clark immediately turned to his right and left with a panicked expression. Before he could run, Ciel locked him with gravity magic.

Covering his hand with gravity magic to fold the weight, Ciel immediately patted Clark's shoulder .. with all his might, with all his might,

Accompanied by the ear-shrinking sound, the ground around shook as Clark was actually made to lie on his stomach on the ground by Ciel. Some of his bones were slagged and his internal organs were shaking.

“I know you have a strong defense. But that doesn't mean you can attack recklessly, Clark. If you meet a strong enemy on the battlefield .. Your actions are nothing more like scenes of people killing themselves in a stupid way.”

“I ... I understand, Mr.”

Unlike Asterious who was often taught by Ciel, Clark who was first taught was completely dumbfounded. Staring at Ciel who was so cold and cruel, Clark compared him to a kind prince who always helped people in need. That's a really incredible contrast.

Clark feels a bit sorry now. If he was still in the tribe, he would spend his time relaxing and fishing casually. As Lizardmen, it's a fun life. But now it's too late, crying won't change what happened.

Ughhhh! Where is the good prince? I was obviously tricked, this creature is a crazy demon! Bring back my simple, fun life!
