The Useless 8th Prince

Can I Ask Someone Else?

Looking at the horse carriage leaving Black Lily Castle from his study, Ciel's eyes narrowed.

“Do you really intend to take Helena Roschild, Mister?”

A soft voice rang out, the figure of Isabella emerging from behind the dark shadow. Ciel turned his head towards the woman, a gentle smile appearing on her face.

“Do you mind?”

“Not at all, Sir. As long as you can share and give affection to all of us .. even if a hundred women, we will not mind.”

“A hundred women?” Ciel stunned. The young man chuckled before adding. “I won't do anything until it's that bad. For Helena herself ... I'm not interested in her.”

“Can I find out the reason, Mister?” isabella asked with a curious expression.

“I don't need too many women by my side. While the ambitious woman ...” Ciel looked directly into Isabella's eyes. “Isn't there you? I think it's enough.”

Hearing Ciel's words made Isabella's heart beat fast. The woman immediately walked up to Ciel, hugged him and kissed him on the cheek with a spoiled expression. Compared to the other three Ciel women, Isabella is arguably the most courageous and ambitious.

“It was very sweet .. Mr.”

In response, the accustomed Ciel only gently nudged the woman's forehead. Understanding what she meant, Isabella let go of the embrace and then held onto her forehead while putting on a contemptuous expression.

“Then ... will you give Helena false hope, sir? Isn't that cruel?”

“Since the beginning I did not give him hope.”

Ciel said in an indifferent tone. Looking out the window, the young man looked very calm. He offers Helena to carry out a symbiosis of mutualism, mutually beneficial to each other. No more than that.

If Helena is too hopeful ..it's her own fault for being too ambitious and fantasizing a lot.

“The Black Orchid area has already started trading between regions, right? I believe Ryo will take good care of the area.

By the way .. arrange for Helena to often go to Black Orchid City as a representative of the Scarlet Roze Region. I want Ryo and Helena to meet often.”

“...”

Do you want to match Ryo with Helena? Really like that?

Thinking of such a thing in her head made Isabella somewhat confused. Let alone such affairs of love, usually, Ciel did not want to deal with many tasks and obligations of his own. That guy's too lazy. So Isabella feels weird when Ciel tries to unite Ryo with Helena.

If Ciel knew what Isabella was thinking, she would definitely chuckle and say that she was fantasizing too much.

The reason why Ciel brought together Ryo and Helena so that they learn from each other and become more balanced. That is the hope of the young man.

Helena is a very ambitious and selfish type. Even worse than Isabella who has such a nature because of her life experience, so that the pursuit of a better life.

As for Ryo, he is the type to say. Ruled west, he'll go west. Ruled east, he'll go east. Really just doing what his master told him to do without thinking about his own feelings.

Helena is very selfish and Ryo who does not care about herself. Ciel wants them to meet often, get to know each other and learn from each other.

The issue of whether they fit in, being a couple, or something like that .. Ciel doesn't really care.

Ciel prefers to give up everything. Allow time to answer.

...***...

Two weeks later, at the border of the Black Lily Region and Scarlet Roze.

On the edge of the forest, there is a bonfire that illuminates and eliminates the darkness around it. Two figures were sitting near the campfire while grilling meat. One of them was a handsome young man with purple and gold irises. Others look like Lizardmen, but have bat-like wings on their backs.

Yeah ... They're Ciel and Clark.

“Do you think in Scarlet Roze Region there will be many Centaur tribes containing beautiful girls, Mr?”

“...”

“Clark .. we leave at full speed and arrive at the border in just 4 days. But in 4 days, including your question earlier .. you have asked about the same thing 28 times!

Do you know the concept? That means you ask the same thing 7 times a day!”

“Something is wrong, Sir???”

Clark tilted his head with a foolish expression. Seeing that made Ciel want to directly slap him.

“Nothing is wrong. It's just .. I've answered your question many times. I'm not familiar with the Scarlet Roze Region, so I don't know about it.

Why do you have to ask that question repeatedly!”

Clark tilted his head in the other direction.

“Maybe when I ask again, you will remember or know that, Mister???”

What you remember or know! Did such knowledge suddenly appear in the head without the need to get and receive information?

Jeez .. I really want to hit that shitty face!

Ciel wanted to beat him up, but he did not have the heart to do so. Although foolish, the figure in front of him was one of the most talented among his subordinates. The worst .. one week ago Clark actually became a top-level demon. Up to level 5 (early)!

Indeed, it could be considered an incredible talent among the Dragonborns. But there are things that make Ciel, even Clark's other colleagues depressed.

How could a stupid lizard that only thought of the horse in its head actually break through that level without any problem, as if it was eating rice or drinking water!

It made the other Ciel's subordinates become more diligent. They felt their dignity and sanity being trampled upon. Losing to others is okay. The important thing ... don't lose to the stupid lizards and buffalo!

In addition to having good talent, Ciel also feels that Clark has good luck. The young man turned to look at the figure who was not far from them. In addition to Deschia the Black Wyvern, there are other creatures.

The creature looked like a raptor in a dinosaur movie in Ciel's previous life. The Demonic Beast was named the Blackwater Horned Raptor.

Unlike the Raptor-type Demonic Beasts that existed in the Shana tribe, the Blackwater Horned Raptor had quite a different appearance. The creature looks taller and slimmer than other types of raptors. He also has two horns and a long tail.

The Blackwater Horned Raptor was clearly one of the mounts that many nobles wanted!

Clark got that ride a week ago. She intends to search for ‘Centaur gorgeous’ but fails. Instead, he got into a lot of trouble and after solving all those problems.

It was a bit complicated, but obviously. Clark could buy things that normally couldn't be bought with just a piece of gold. It was good luck and good luck for him.

Seeing the stupid lizard's luck really made Ciel depressed.

Are simple and stupid people more fortunate?

Thinking of that made Ciel shake lightly. A bitter smile appeared on his face.

“So Mr. .. do you know it now?”

The question immediately made Ciel wake up from his daydream. He then looked at Clark before sighing deeply. Feeling depressed because of the stupid lizard who kept asking about this horse and that horse.

I went to the Scarlet Roze Region to take care of a lot of things, Okay? Why the hell is it a Centaur girl search?

Can I ask someone else to accompany me?

This stupid lizard is really frustrating!
