The Useless 8th Prince

Allow Me ...

“Retreat, Theo ..”

Ciel said as he pointed the katana to the teenager's neck with a cold look. But instead of retreating, Theo went forward. The katana cut her neck.

Despite the pain, Theo just gritted his teeth while continuing to look into Ciel's eyes.

Looking at Theo's clear eyes, Ciel suddenly realized something. The fire that enveloped the katana in both of his hands instantly extinguished. Refreshing the two katanas, the young man closed his eyes.

After a while, Ciel let out a long breath. Reopening his eyes, the iris in his purple eyes returned to normal. Looking towards Theo.

Do I really think of Theo ... as the godson?

Smiling bitterly, the young man shook his head. Before walking a few steps to the front, touch his head and ruffle his hair.

“Thank you, Theo.”

Looking towards the gently smiling Ciel, Theo's eyes became even brighter.

“Sama-sama, Mr.”

“Thankful ..”

A woman's voice rang out, everyone instantly turned their eyes to the source of the voice. They all saw Jenny's figure who looked relieved.

Looking at Jenny, the old knight named Tez wiped the corner of his eye. He immediately knelt down.

“Honor to Princess Jenneva!”

The elite knights of the Silver Fang Kingdom looked surprised. After all, other than a few seniors, no one knew who that woman was. Yet seeing how the old knight was kneeling, everyone immediately followed him.

“Honor to Princess Jenneva!” shouted the knights from the Silver Fang Kingdom in unison.

Seeing the sight of many knights kneeling to the maid-clothed woman made the others speechless. Even Theo blinked when he looked towards his mother. He seemed confused and curious about what was really going on.

“A-Is that really you, Jenneva?”

Seeing Jenny's figure, Charles choked. The man did not expect that he would have the opportunity to meet his sister again. Charles doesn't know what happened to Jenny.

“Call me Jenny. Now I'm no longer Princess Jenneva of the Silver Fang Kingdom. So .. Mr. Tez, the knights .. stand up and lift your heads.”

Seeing that the knights were in doubt, Charles immediately said, “As Jenneva said, you all wake up!”

After seeing the knights standing up, Charles turned his gaze back to Jenny. The man couldn't help but ask.

“What really happened, Jenneva?”

Jenny turned her eyes. Seeing how Ciel looked at her with an expression asking for an explanation, the woman was embarrassed. Although a bit sad to see his sister's face, Jenny felt her heart racing when she saw how Ciel defended ‘himself’.

“Can we talk about it elsewhere?” ask Jenny.

Hearing Jenny's words, Ciel let out a long sigh. Although he had no intention of harming himself, he did not expect that the woman was hiding such an important thing. Shaking lightly, the young man immediately gave the order.

“Find the people who will clean up this mess,” said Ciel coldly.

“Good, Master!” answer the knights of Ciel in unison.

Charles looked at the knights who were leaving in an orderly manner. Seeing how they acted with discipline as well as feeling their strength, he was extremely shocked. The man looked towards Ciel with a deep look.

Prince Luciel ...really not a simple young man!

...***...

Inside the living room of the main building of Black Lily Castle.

Usually other than the most loyal family or subordinates, Ciel did not receive any guests here. However seeing how he messed with the other buildings, the young man could only put on a bitter expression.

“So ... can anyone explain it to me?” ciel asked with a gloomy expression.

The young man was very sorry for ruining the furniture. He was very reluctant to spend his money to repair and replace furniture. Just for a moment's satisfaction, Ciel actually felt miserable then.

Charles looked at Jenny as well. The man also felt displeased that his sister did not explain the situation, she had to be beaten by a young man. He ... a King, really beaten like that.

“Actually .. The person who made me like this was my first sister,”.

“You mean?” charles asked with a confused expression.

“He poisoned me and sold me as a slave to the Marquis. Even though it's been a dozen years, I still can't forget that.”

“...” Charles looked at Jenny with a surprised expression.

“He seems afraid that I will support you to get the King position. But I also rejoice, first brother does not become king.” Jenny shook her head lightly. “Already. I no longer want to remember that time, King Charles. Jenneva is dead .. The only one left here is Jenny.”

“Back. Dad is dying now.”

“What happened? The old man should have lived a long time. Besides .... she always takes care of her body.”

“He was poisoned.” Charles took a long breath. “After hearing your story, I suspected that it was the man who poisoned Dad. It has been a long time ... but he still cannot forget it? This is only the position of King ..”

“The first brother was very ambitious. He is very different from other people. Even after a few years, that person must still hold a grudge.”

“Go home, Jenneva. Take your son back to Silver Fang.” Kingdom

“Cannot. I can't do it.” Jenny shook her head lightly.

“If it's a contract issue .. I'll let you go. Although I cannot release the contract, I will not interfere and release you.”

Ciel suddenly spoke. Hearing that, Charles looked at Jenny.

“Now, me and Theo belong to Prince Luciel. Don't think too much ... Prince Ciel is very good to us.” Jenny then looked at Theo. “Theo, come and greet your uncle.”

“No! I don't want to go. I'll stay with Mr.” Theo looked towards Charles. “I don't care if you're King or what. I don't know you. I don't have any relatives like you!”

“Theo!” jenny exclaimed with a bitter smile.

Since childhood, Theo was born and lived in a dark, humid, and narrow place. He didn't grow up well and still thinks like a child. Theo is also often treated worse than pets.

From the beginning, Theo believed that he and his mother were just unlucky people to accept that fate. The teenager still remembered vividly when he saw the handsome young man who broke through that narrow and stinky place.

Not only did it heal his mother, the figure made him see the sunlight that he had only heard from his mother's lips. Theo did not know who his father was, but already considered the figure who was only a few years older than him to be like a father. A living role model!

With mother and master by his side, Theo felt very happy. He could go to see the outside world, could eat different kinds of good food, and meet many new friends. It was a really fun life.

Then ... Suddenly there was a King who came and claimed to be his uncle. Of course Theo doesn't like it. If he does have uncles, grandfathers, and other families …

Where were they all this time? Where were they when my mother and I suffered? There's no way I'm thinking of them as family!

“Already, Jenneva. It's also our fault that you became what you are now.”

“...”

Feeling the awkward atmosphere in the room, Ciel felt like he was not in his place. The young man looked at Jenny and gave her a choice.

“You can make your own decision, Jenny. You don't need to hold back.”

Seeing how Ciel treated her well, the heavy expression on Jenny's face softened. The woman then looked at Theo before replying.

“Then ... allow me to keep following and trouble you, Tuanku.”
