The Useless 8th Prince
War Cruelty
Over fifty people were stunned to see a gigantic basin created in front of them after the lightning dragon disappeared. In the middle of the basin, only a spear was left that nailed the ground.
Seeing that scene, Elena suddenly became panicked. He directly climbed Lil-White and flew towards the center of the basin.
“Master! The master! You where, Mister!”
Looking at the panicked Elena, Theo who was standing near Clark and Asterious became confused. Gazing towards the bull and the winged crocodile, the boy blinked.
“Why does Miss Elena look so panicked?”
“...”
Clark and Asterious looked at each other with ‘ gazes how I knew.’ which made the child even more confused. As if shocked from being late on realizing something important, the two people immediately exclaimed.
“Sial! Don't-don't something bad happen to Sir!” exclaimed Asterious with a shocked expression.
“As expected of Miss Elena. Even he realized something like this quickly,” Clark added with an expression of awe and panic.
Seeing the two seniors who were late in thinking that, Theo tilted his head.
“Isn't Mister okay? As subordinates with soul contracts ... we can feel that connection, right?”
“...”
Asterious and Clark were silent for a moment. After a while, they realized that Theo was right. The two looked at each other with astonished expressions. Both felt that the boy in front of them was too smart to compare to a child his age. Yeah ... They didn't feel stupid, just the boy in front of the two was too smart.
Deschia who was circling in the sky suddenly flew towards a certain direction. Not long after, the Wyvern returned while carrying the figure of a handsome young man in tattered top clothes. But the young man's face looked bright, not at all dying or in pain.
Yep. After drinking some potions, Ciel felt better and called out to Deschia.
By the time Ciel saw Elena who was riding Lil-White was busy searching, she shook her head lightly. The young man felt a warm sensation in his heart. Ciel knew that Elena must be panicking and not thinking of seeing the soul bond.
“I'm fine, Elena.”
Hearing Ciel's voice, Elena who was busy looking looked towards Deschia. He immediately told Lili-White to fly over. Without hesitation, the girl leaped towards Ciel, making the young man startled when she caught him.
“You're stupid, Sir. Sembrono ... obnoxious ..” Elena who sat on Ciel's lap while hugging the young man's neck tightly continued to grumble.
“I'm fine.” Ciel kissed the woman's cheek gently. “However there is more important now.”
With Ciel's direction, Deschia flew towards the dozens of members of the Bathory Family. They could not escape as they were surrounded by over fifty thousand troops. Not to mention, after seeing Ciel's strength, they gave up on resisting.
Deschia landed in front of the rest of the Bathory Family. Ciel descended from Wyvern's back while holding Elena like a princess before lowering her. The young man then looked at the Vampires and said coldly.
“Do not think I forgive you after all your deeds.”
Ciel's words instantly made the Vampires who felt relieved become frightened. They felt that the death god scythe had been on their necks.
“There are last words?” ask Ciel.
“This is all Marcus' fault! Me and my family-”
One of the middle-aged Vampires tried to deny. But before his words were done, Ciel disappeared from his place and ‘mened’ the guy's neck.
“AHHH!!!”
Panic screams sounded. Some Vampires were about to fight back, but this time Marcus walked towards Ciel.
“I have a request, Prince Luciel.”
“Hou ..” Ciel turned his gaze to Marcus. “You really dare to make a request at a time like this?”
Marcus suddenly threw something towards Ciel. The young man immediately squinted. With an indifferent expression, he caught what Marcus was throwing at him.
“It was the key to the basement where I kept some of the treasures. Of course, not at Scarlet Roze Castle. If you want to hear my request, I'll tell you the location.”
Ciel looked at Marcus who looked serious, then replied nonchalantly. “I will listen, but not sure will grant your request.”
“It's enough.” Marcus nodded.
“I'll talk. After all, there is no point in fighting back. Not only was it in vain, it was instead torturing and delaying death.
I will mention the guilty and involved people, including the women who knew it. It's just that innocent women and children don't understand. I want you to forgive them.
I'm rotten, but I fight for the Bathory Family. It's just that, as a weakling, I was defeated by you guys who were stronger. So, I don't regret doing it all.
It's just that, as the head of the Bathory Family .. I don't want the descendants of Bathory to be stopped here because of me.”
Ciel looked at the determined Marcus. Yes, in the world Ciel now stands, there is no right or wrong. What he considered good, it was just the morality that he had brought from his previous life. The strong eat the weak .. It is already the law of nature.
“The pride of the head of the family, is it?” mumbling Ciel. “I agree. As long as they want to be my family's personal slaves until their entire descendants, I don't mind. For freedom ... nonsense. I'm not so stupid as to let go of a man who has a grudge against me.”
“It's enough.” Marcus nodded. “Whatever you do to all of them, I don't care. Even if you want to make them serve 7 x 24 .. I don't care if they live.”
“Silly pride,” says Ciel. “Then say.”
“You traitor, Marcus! You-”
One of the Vampires got angry. Again, Ciel ‘menebang’ his neck without changing his facial expression. Almost all of the Vampires tried to escape in all directions. Unlike Marcus who already understood something, they still have dreams to survive because of luck or something like that. However …
“My order ... kill the one who tried to escape!” Ciel's voice echoed in the meadow.
Hearing their master's orders, over fifty thousand soldiers advanced. Surrounded by the many warriors, the Vampires who were not too strong as well as exhausted were instantly subverted. In other words .. massacre of one party.
After that massacre, all the remaining Vampires were grouped in two. The guilty part, and the innocent part. It was just that, in the innocent passage, there were only a dozen women and over twenty children.
Not wanting to expose his soldiers to mental stress, Ciel beheaded the guilty Vampires one by one be it men or women. In the end ... it's been up to the last two turns.
“While I was wrong, I was forced by Marcus, my Lord. As wife, i-”
Ciel immediately beheaded Marcus' wife before the man's own eyes.
“How do you feel seeing a wife blaming you for everything?” ask Ciel.
“It was just a planned wedding. I don't really care.”
“There are last words?” asked Ciel coldly.
“Location is in XX ... keep your promise, Prince Luciel.”
After the sentence was spoken, Marcus' head was immediately separated from his body.
Ciel then looked at the remaining entourage. They saw Ciel full of hatred and anger, but also felt helpless and frightened.
“There are those who refuse to be slaves under me?” Ciel said briefly.
The figure of the woman advanced, a girl less than ten years old followed behind him. Keep holding the woman's skirt and don't want to let go.
“I can't forget my husband and will probably always hate you. So please punish me too.”
“Mama! Mama!” The little girl continued to look at Ciel with a hateful expression. His face was filled with tears, making many people feel unbearable.
“I'll keep following Mama! You killed Papa! You're evil! I hate you! Huaaa!!” The little girl was crying. Her crying made many hearts slashed.
Fuck .. This is why I hate war! I hate this world! I chose to lock myself up for not wanting to interfere with all this nonsense!
But ... Shit! Fucking World! You really forced me!
Ciel roared inwardly, but his face seemed to remain calm. Hardened his heart while tightly gripping the katana, without batting an eye.
Two heads rolled on the wet ground.
Seeing Ciel who killed the mother and little child without batting an eye, everyone fell silent. They really are speechless.
Yes ... they finally felt the true atrocities of war.
