The Useless 8th Prince

Who Is This Child?

Her night.

After discussing the task to be given to Ryo and Gordon and rested enough. In his private room, Ciel sat with his four lovers.

Ciel's expression didn't look good at all. In fact, the young man looked quite gloomy.

“Isn't that overkill?”

Hearing Ciel's question, the four women looked at each other. Ariana then lowered her head before answering in a monotonous voice as usual.

“I'm sorry, Honey. I spent all the supplies you left behind. I think ... it would be better to immediately increase the strength of all your most loyal subordinates.

So when you go ... we have the ability to keep yourself.”

“Wait .. do you mean?”

Unknowingly Ciel activated his Eye of the Lord skill. He then looked towards his four lovers. A surprised expression was immediately visible on his face.

Except for Ariana who is at level 3 (end), the other three women turned out to be in lievel 4 (end).

Indeed, before Ciel went to the Royal Capital, he left many valuable potions to Ariana. Although the potion could help his most loyal subordinates level up, it also had to be done with hard training to surpass their own limits.

“Explain to me, Ariana. Be at what level those people are.”

“In addition to Jean who has been at level 4 (end) and has not progressed. The other level has changed drastically ..”

Ariana, level 3 (end).

Camellia, Elena, Isabella are at level 4 (end).

Jean, Asterious, Clark is at level 4 (end).

Flora, Fiona, Theodore are at level 4 (early).

Coupled with Ryo who is at level 4 (early) and Gordon at level 5 (early), all of Ciel's subordinates are arguably very strong. Their strength was probably only slightly weaker than that of a Duke. As for the Marquis' army, without his help, Ciel was confident they could wipe out an enemy of that level.

Recalling the figure of a kind and innocent child who considered himself like his own father, Ciel inhaled a cold breath. He did not expect that Theodore had such a powerful talent. Although unlike her who only ate to level up, that talent was clearly not far below her.

“Thank you for your hard work. However, do not overdo it in pursuit of something. Indeed, power is necessary.

I just don't want the obsession of chasing strength will actually make you overdo it and damage your own body.”

“Of course, Honey. We all agreed to stop at level 4 (end) to get used to it and strengthen the foundation. After all ...the breakthrough to become a top tier (level 5) demon was extremely difficult.

We do not dare to mess around or when breaking through precisely facing failure and stalled at that level.”

“In addition to hard training, you also definitely do match practice to feel the battle crisis and trigger potential, right? Where are you guys practicing?”

“We do it in the grasslands in winter. In addition, it has been announced to residents so that they do not panic when they feel a shock or hear a loud explosion.”

Imagine how his loyal subordinates were training under the snow. Making a ruin here and there to spark potential and level up for her sake, Ciel felt touched. But rather than feeling touched, he felt somewhat embarrassed.

Compared to those hard workers ..he is too lazy!

That night, Ciel and his four lovers did not sleep at all. They don't do excessive things. Even though they already wanted it so badly, Ciel still held back. Obeying herself to do so after she turns 18.

Instead, they shared many stories as they parted ways. Every now and then, warm hugs and soft kisses they do to release the longing.

Hearing what his four lovers did when he was not around, Ciel felt grateful and proud of them. Not only did they not slack off in doing tasks, they trained harder and tried not to be a burden to him.

Hearing all that, Ciel could no longer expect anything else. The four women, were already too good compared to the others.

Not only did he hear, as the four women were curious, Ciel also recounted his journey. From the moment he reached the Royal Capital, defeating Victor, to his adventure in the Diamond Blood Kingdom and killing Fenton.

The next day afternoon.

On a vast plain, two figures appeared to face each other. Not far away, some people were watching.

The ones facing off are Ciel and Theo. Some of the people watching were Jenny, Flora, Fiona, Ryo, and Gordon. While others ... they are not free because they have to do their job. For Aiz and Vahn, their young bodies were too exhausted after a long journey.

“Are you ready?” ciel asked with a gentle smile on his face.

“Please for guidance, Mister!”

After saluting while saying that, Theo directly danced the sword from its sheath. Holding the sword with both hands, he looked at Ciel with a serious expression.

Seeing Theo's serious demeanor, Ciel nodded lightly. He then said, “Forward.”

Hearing that, Theo unhesitatingly coated his sword with magic energy. The teenager then immediately shot towards Ciel. Arriving in front of Ciel's figure, Theo suddenly changed his leg movements.

Theo immediately appeared behind Ciel and intended to slash the back of the prince's neck. Having absolute confidence in Ciel, the teenager unhesitatingly slashed straight away.

KLANG!

The sound of metal clanking was heard. Facing Theo who was swinging the sword with two hands, Ciel held his sword with one hand while giving the teenager a friendly smile.

“Good development.”

Hearing Ciel's praise, Theo did not relax his vigilance at all. The mana that was lining his sword suddenly changed. From the color of cyan, the mana lining his sword was replaced with a dancing black lightning.

Looking at the sword coated in black lightning, Ciel's eyes narrowed. A black flame suddenly appeared and coated the sword in his hand.

Theo instantly leaped backwards, he then instantly made a slashing movement. The sword energy that was in the shape of a black crescent moon and coated in lightning instantly aimed towards Ciel. It was completely similar to Victor's attack, just that it was smaller and looked weaker.

Ciel instantly swung his sword and split the energy attack in half. Before Theo continued his attack, Ciel suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of him.

Theo was about to put up a defensive position, but a little late. The sword handle in Ciel's hand gently tapped on the teenager's forehead.

“You lost, Theo. Your strength and speed are incredible, but you are too focused on attacking. Attacking is important, but do not leave a lot of gaps. If your defense leaks, it will be fatal.”

After saying that, Ciel again sheathed his sword.

Meanwhile, Theo held the sword in his right hand while touching his own forehead with his left hand. He looked somewhat dazed and disappointed. Theo wants to show a lot of things and make Ciel proud, not expecting that he is still too far from the word ‘kuat’.

I have to train harder and make you even more proud of me!

If anyone knew Theo's inner thoughts, they would have already complained. It wasn't that Theo was weak, it was just that his opponent was too abnormal. Theo's own talent had already surpassed that of most noble children or even princes in the surrounding kingdoms.

Theo wakes up from his daydream when he sees Ciel stroking his head while ruffling his hair.

“You must be training hard. Don't be too disappointed, you're already very strong. I'm so proud of you.”

Hearing Ciel's words, Theodore smiled cheerfully. Like a child who feels happy to be praised by his father after receiving a good report card.

“Good, Master!”

While in that place looks heartwarming events. Instead, the spectators had inhaled a cold breath. They did not expect a child to have such power.

The most surprised was Ryo. He always thought that his talent was already very good. But among Ciel's followers, he felt somewhat ordinary. However when looking at Theo's movements and that black lightning magic, Ryo could not help but think.

Who exactly is this kid?
