The Useless 8th Prince

One Go and One Come

“What's up, Prince Luciel?”

The question from Duke Raevern made Ciel wake up from his daydream. He then turned to the handsome middle-aged man before shaking his head lightly.

“It's okay.”

Ciel shook his head lightly. The young man knew that the wider the territory .. the harder it was to manage. Moreover, he had to recruit and had more of a daffodil figure under him.

Taking care of the Black Lily Region (now known as Blackfield) was already very troublesome? Now ... start another region? The Scarlet Roze? That must be exhausting!

Just thinking about that made Ciel feel a bit dizzy. If ruling the territory in the usual way, it was relatively easier. It's just .. he wants everything in his power to appear in place and there are no gaps.

Yes...no dangerous loopholes that might put him in danger in the future.

“Then ... I will say goodbye.”

“Stay to rest for a few days,” said Ciel politely.

“Can't, Prince Ciel.”

Duke Raevern shook his head lightly with a bitter expression on his face. If not for respect and respect for Ciel, that fellow would not have bothered to come to Black Lily City to meet the young man directly. He would choose to send an envoy.

It was just that Duke Raevern also knew that Ciel had his own arrogance. If the one who came was the envoy, obviously, the young man would not bother to accept it.

Duke Raevern himself was very busy. If it was not the importance of the new territory that greatly influenced South Duchy's development going forward, he would have chosen to settle his affairs before coming. However, the full ownership of the mine was very important .. Duke Raevern felt he should take care of it as soon as possible.

“Then let me take you to the exit.”

“Good.” Duke Raevern nodded.

The two then walked out of the castle. At that moment, Duke Raevern once again asked to confirm something.

“Soal ownership transfer region ..”

“As long as you have taken care of the others and announced to the nobles in Scarlet Roze Region that they may move or descend to be ordinary, we can directly do it.”

Seeing that Ciel also had no intention of delaying or putting him in trouble, Duke Raevern heaved a sigh of relief.

“Thank you, Prince Luciel.”

“Sama-sama.” Ciel replied casually.

Seeing the figure of Duke Raevern who finally entered into the carriage of the horse carriage and left, Ciel let out a long sigh. Seeing the figure with the title ‘Duke’, he gave a look of pity.

Isn't he a Duke? But ...he still has to go here and there and take care of things personally.

Duchy is so broad? That must be exhausting!

Not to mention that there are not many reliable people. Huuh .. I'm so sorry, Duke Raevern!

If he knew the figure of the prince who was feeling sorry for him, Duke Raevern would have already vomited blood. Most people would love it. However, a young man who hated busyness really pitied himself!

...***...

Time passed again.

After returning to Black Lily Castle, except taking care of some work and spoiled with her lover, Ciel was really like a bear in the winter.

Spend most of the time sleeping!

Looking at the snow that was beginning to melt, the green grass started to grow, and felt the fresh breeze of spring pounding on his face. Instead, he looked sullen!

Less is! Less than two weeks of leisure time is still lacking!

Ciel roared in his heart. The young man knew that since the arrival of spring, many jobs would come to him. Thinking of how he should start organizing the medicinal ingredients farm in Greenscale City, start recruiting new soldiers, and set up a school .. Ciel felt depressed!

Not to mention, Duke Raevern had such a fast performance that both regions had been exchanged. That meant ... Ciel also had to go to the Scarlet Roze Region to arrange things.

Seeing the birds flying, dancing, and chirping.

If others saw Ciel blaming spring, they would be confused whether to cry or laugh.

For most people, spring is like a new hope. Hope where all will go better than the year before. A time where they start to become hopeful and excited.

The peasants would expect abundant harvests, the merchants would expect safe passage as well as business success, even the nobles hoped the area or territory under them would produce more and develop better.

No one hates the spring that represents hope!

Geck! Geck! Geck!

Hearing the sound of knocking on the door, Ciel regained his senses from his daydream.

“Log.”

The door opened, a female figure entered the room. Seeing Isabella's beautiful figure, Ciel tilted her head.

“What's up?”

“It's okay, My Lord. I just thought you weren't awake.”

Ciel looked at Isabella with a gentle smile. A few days after the young man returned, he had Camellia and Isabella change their clothes.

At first they were often dressed like a servant, but now they were wearing fine clothes. Although not as good as the clothes of the upper class noble girls, those clothes were better than those of the lower class nobles.

Although Elena. If it was inside the castle, he would also wear such clothes. However when it came out and started patrolling, the woman was still wearing female knight clothes. Of course, Ciel also upgraded Elena's combat attire. She was not stingy towards her subordinates .. not to mention her lover!

“I want to report something, Mr.”

“What's up?” Ciel raised the corner of his eyebrow with a dissatisfied expression.

“One of the Viscounts gave a message that there was a noble carriage escorted by many knights riding. They come from outside. According to the report ... supposedly they will arrive in four or five days.”

“What does this have to do with me?” ciel asked dissatisfiedly.

“It seems that they are one of the representatives of the Scarlet Roze Region. Because most likely you will soon be preoccupied with the affairs of the Scarlet Roze Region …

Please finish the work related to Black Lily Region before that.”

“...”

Ciel speechless. Knowing he had to do overtime work in early spring, the young man complained inwardly.

Doesn't spring represent hope? Then what the hell with overtime work and this problem?

This was definitely not hope, but a desperate thing!

I guess .. I hate spring!

Without feeling it, four days passed so quickly.

A carriage of noble carriages escorted by many mounted knights finally reached Black Lily Castle.

Ciel and Ariana came down to greet the arrival of the man. But after seeing the emblem on the horse carriage, Ciel felt somewhat depressed and less comfortable. When the door opened, the figure of a beautiful girl descended the carriage. Behind her .. was seen two maidservants accompanying her.

That girl is Helena Roschild!

“Thank you for coming down to welcome us, Prince Luciel.”

Such a soft voice sounded. Many knights looked at the beautiful figure of Helena with expressions full of adoration. Meanwhile, Ciel frowned and Ariana did not change her expression at all.

Ciel could not help but sigh in his heart.

What is this girl really doing here?
