The Useless 8th Prince

Academy Opening

While Ciel and Jenny were sitting side by side in silence, someone was watching them from behind the bedroom door.

While Jenny was unconscious, Ciel who realized it smiled bitterly.

“Speaking it's not a good thing, Theo.”

Hearing Ciel's sudden remark, Jenny was startled. The room door suddenly opened and Theo's figure entered the room while scratching his head. An awkward smile was seen on the boy's face.

“What are you doing here. Theo?” ask Jenny gently. When the door opened, the woman immediately moved away from Ciel.

“I think mom is sad. So I came to check, but ..” Theo does not continue. Just smiling while scratching his head.

Theo who occasionally glanced at Ciel could not hide his excitement. It made Ciel shake lightly.

“What's up, Theo? You can say it.”

Theo looked at Ciel with a doubtful and timid expression. Scratching the back of his head while smiling, the boy finally asked.

“Am I going to have a sister soon, Mister?”

“...”

Hearing Theo's question, Jenny and Ciel instantly fell silent. Jenny's face was instantly red like an apple. Meanwhile, Ciel looked rather worried.

“Theo ... who told you that?”

“Senior Asterious says, if a boy and a girl are in the same room, a baby will appear. Isn't that how it is? It was a bit strange .. but magical.

I sometimes envy Vahn who has a sister like Aiz. But now I am no longer jealous. I will soon have a younger brother, even the master who gave it to me.

I ... very happy!”

“...”

Hearing the answer from Theo who was still so innocent despite being a teenager, Ciel felt somewhat depressed. It wasn't Theo's innocence that depressed him, but the people around him.

The buffalo ... watch out later.

“Because Theo is already here, I'll be back. You two ... sleep well.”

Seeing Ciel who was leaving with an ox smile on his face, Theo suddenly felt regret.

“Did I do the wrong thing, Mother?” ask Theo worried.

“Not at all, Theo. It's just ... Your understanding is a bit wrong.” Jenny explained softly.

“Which part is wrong?”

“Not because it is in the same room. A baby will show up if a boy and a girl do something. However, before doing so .. both must be married.

If not, it is considered bad. It could even be considered a crime.”

Ignoring the part of how the baby was made, Theo instead focused on the other part.

“So ... Mum and Master are getting married? Master will really be my father?” asked Theo with an amazed and hopeful expression.

“It ... It's a bit complicated.” Jenny let out a long breath after saying it.

“Why?” asked Theo with a puzzled expression.

“You will find out later. Aren't you tired? Go back and sleep. Don't disappoint the Master by lazing around and arriving late for practice.”

“Good.” Theo nodded obediently. “You should also get to bed soon. Good night, Mother.”

“Goodnight, Theo.”

After Theo left and closed the door of her room, Jenny let out a long sigh. He looks lethargic when he drops into bed.

Jenny was worried. The woman was aware that she liked Ciel, but she realized that women did not seem appropriate for a young man like Ciel. Jenny could only complain in her heart.

What am I supposed to do???

...***...

A few days just passed.

There were disciples from among the nobles and ordinary citizens. Seeing how the children were wearing the same uniform made many people astonished by such a new sight.

‘In the academy does not distinguish whether nobles or not. Because the purpose of the academy is ... educate the students and give them knowledge.’

Everyone who remembers Ciel's words looks forward to the future. A future where people are not always stupid. A future where there are important figures emerging from among the common people.

In the auditorium of the academy, the children were told to line up and wait. The children behaved obediently. They know they have a chance to change their fate. It was not something that could be taken lightly.

After they sat down and waited for quite a long time. Looking at that person, the eyes of the children seemed to have admiration. Smiles appeared on their faces.

“That's Principal Gordon,” whispered one of the children.

“I heard Principal Gordon came from a faraway place just to teach us all. He is a very good old man.”

“Don't be fooled by Principal Gordon's gentle face. I heard, he is a demon leve 5 (early) ... even stronger than some nobles.”

“Wow! Is Principal Gordon really not a noble?”

“Iya. That's what makes him great!”

“...”

Many children started whispering. Gordon of course heard a lot of praise directed at him that. Given how Ciel had appointed him as the principal, the old man was so happy. Didn't expect that the little demons would consider themselves idols.

Gordon clapped his hands to get the kids' attention. Sure enough, hearing that made the children immediately shut up and pay attention to Gordon.

“First of all ... I will introduce myself. My name is Gordon, level 5 demon (early). Fire witch.”

Seeing the children's eyes focusing on him, Gordon immediately continued.

“Ya .. Previously I was a witch. However, from now on I will also teach you all. I will be the principal of this academy. So from now on you can call me the principal.

Of course, I won't be alone. There will be other teachers who will teach you. You will learn many things from writing, counting, even.

And it's all ... FREE!”

Despite knowing that, the children were still very excited and clapped with cheerful expressions.

“At first as the person appointed as the principal. This kind of academy and education was usually only given to nobles. It still has to pay a price.

However, our kind and loving Master gave you all a chance. He believes ... that the future of the Blackfield Region is in your hands! You will contribute to building a better Blackfield Region for everyone!

Is our Master, Prince Luciel only concerned with himself? Only concerned with nobles? Or....some even said he was so cruel and vicious!

Do you know, children ..my beloved students! The prince killed to protect us all! He made a good change. Making a brighter future for the Blackfield Region!

So ... are you afraid to even hate it? If it were me. I would be so grateful and adore our Master. He has given us the opportunity to change our bleak future. So …

Are you ready to fight for a glorious future?!”

Hearing Gordon's speech made the children very excited. They clapped loudly while answering in unison.

“Yes, Headmaster!!!”

Gordon opened his arms wide and closed his eyes.

“This is a gift from our Master, Prince Luciel. So ... praise Your Excellency Luciel!!!”

The children cheered while raising their right hand.

“Praise Your Excellency Luciel!!!”

While something big was happening within the Black Lily Academy, Ciel who was in his office suddenly shivered. He looked left and right.

What the hell is going on?

Ciel had no idea, the overly fanatical figure of the old man had not only become the principal. The old man even secretly brainwashed the children like a dangerous cult leader.

The old man who made the children have a strong sense of the homeland and adored Ciel as a benchmark of their lives!
