The Useless 8th Prince

Starla and the Relics

After much talk, Ciel finally knew quite a lot of things.

First, the Dragon who spoke like an elegant and arrogant noblewoman was named Starla. According to the creature, it was Avrora who had given it a name. That was because most people would call him the Frost Dragon King.

Second, forget about Starla's beautiful and somewhat frivolous appearance. Although quite arrogant and often looks insulting, he has strength that can support his abilities. After all ... he's a Dragon at level 7 (intermediate).

Third, his conjecture about the nature of Starla who likes to eat and sleep to death is quite appropriate. It made her quite envious and could only grit her teeth when she heard the grandmother's story about how ‘easy’ life was.

Besides, there are still some other things.

“By the way ... since you can't ask about grandma, may I ask about some other important things, Grandma Starla?”

“Who do you call Grandma! I'm obviously young .. call me Miss Starla.”

“...”

Didn't you say you were my grandmother's partner? I suspect you are very old! Stop being so cute!

Ciel was depressed. However since it really felt that what he wanted to ask was very important, the young man finally relented.

“Then, may I ask, Miss Starla?”

“Say,” says Starla with her head raised. Looks proud.

“How to break through to level 7?”

“...”

Starla looked at Ciel with a surprised expression. With some hesitation, he finally asked.

“Are you at the top of level 6, Little Luciel? Otherwise, you shouldn't have to question this. Focusing on the wrong things will affect your progress. Also-”

“I've been at level 6 (end) and hit the barrier wall. It's just, I don't know how to break through that barrier.”

“...”

Starla was speechless. After weighing a few things, the Dragon with the sapphire tub scales explained.

“Which I know, Demonic Beasts and Demons have different ways. But the most important and as the core .. you should be able to create a.” Domain

“Domain??” ask Ciel.

Starla nodded lightly. After that, he continued.

“Try using your magic to attack me, Luciel.”

“En?”

Ciel looked confused. Even so, he directly used simple magic. A small fireball appeared on his finger. At that very instant, the young man's expression changed.

“This ..”

“What you feel it is Domain.”

“...”

Ciel surprised. Usually the young man easily used magic because of the Arcana Lord skill. However this time he was surprised because the speed of casting spells actually slowed down. Almost twice as long.

“Truly an incredible talent,” said Starla. “In the Domain you can still cast spells at such speed. However ..”

At the moment Ciel blinked, his expression instantly changed. Somehow since when, within the room he and Starla were in was suddenly filled with countless floating ice swords.

The entire sword pointed at Ciel, leaving the young man shocked. At that very instant, Starla's voice came back to her mind.

“This is my Domain, World of Ice.”

“So, the so-called Domain was ..”

“Yes. A force to affect a space around it within a certain radius. The entire Domain could make weaker opponents difficult in casting spells, consumption of more power to physically fight back, and some other attribute decline.

Most importantly, the Domain itself makes you have one more additional ability. For example, my World of Ice allowed me to manipulate the elements or rather the energies containing the ice element within a radius of 10 kilometers with me as the center.

In fact, there were many different kinds of Domains and every creature could possibly condense or comprehend a single Domain for every innate skill he had. Because basically every skill mostly has attributes, usually the Domain created is a Domain that is included in element control.

Hearing Starla's words, Ciel closed his eyes while pondering.

“So ...The domain itself could be said to be the power to manipulate certain energies within the fields around it?”

“Kot more like that.”

“It doesn't seem that simple,” muttered Ciel. “Do you have any other tips, Miss Starla.”

“I can only help you get here, Luciel. Demonic Beasts and Demons are different. We usually have the enlightenment to realize and own our own Domain.

As for the Devil, I myself do not understand. You can ask Ragnar.”

“...”

Who would ask the old man? Isn't that the same as looking for trouble?

After pondering for quite a while, Ciel shook his head lightly. Having no clue, the young man finally chose to forget about it for now. Gazing towards Starla, the young man smiled.

“Thank you very much.”

“That's no problem.”

Starla shook her head lightly. A second later, countless ice swords disappeared just like that. The dragon then said,

“Because you're already here. Take what Avrora left for his descendants.”

“Eh?”

“Just go through that cave. After descending down through the stairs, there will be a small room. Avrora left something there.”

“...”

Seeing Starla's expression, Ciel sighed before nodding. He then went to the room. Actually, the young man was also looking forward to what treasures his grandmother had left behind.

I hope it's a lot of money …

After descending the stairs, Ciel finally arrived at a small room. Different from his conjecture, there were no countless gold coins. It was just an empty small room with a sword stuck to the stone in the middle of the room.

Ciel approached the sword then looked towards the carving on the stone.

‘IF YOU TAKE IT, YOU SHOULD BE WILLING TO ACCEPT THE BURDEN.’

Looking at the clearly engraved sentence, Ciel instantly smelled the scent of trouble. The young man felt that the sword that was there would bring trouble to him. On the other hand, the young man could not ignore the sword-type Artifact Weapon he had all this time wanted.

In a dilemma, Ciel finally gritted his teeth and took the pednag. After pulling the sword from the stone, the young man's expression changed.

From the sword hilt appeared many thorns that pierced the skin on the sword hilt and finally sucked out his blood. After a while, the sword returned to normal. However, Ciel could feel a close connection to the sword.

Ciel felt the sword was like an extension of his hand. The young man tried curiously. What was surprising, the pednag was able to cut through the rocks like it was cutting tofu.

Moreover, when Ciel tried to enter a hint of mana, a black aura that felt extremely hot appeared overlaying the sword.

Looking at that jet-black and beautiful sword, Ciel nodded in satisfaction. He nodded in satisfaction before finally seeing the small message under the stone on which the sword was struck.

‘You have taken and made a bond with that sword. I hope you don't take it out easily or take it to the central part of the continent.’

‘If you do, prepare to be chased by one of the three Empires in the middle of the continent. Yes ... maybe they will try to chase and kill you, even to the end of the world.’

‘Happy fighting. Hehehe~’

Seeing that, Ciel's expression changed from happy to pale. He felt the beautiful sword in his hand become rather heavy. Makes him feel a bit desperate.

What is hehehe! Can't you be a little serious?

This granddaughter of yours might die from the reckless mannerisms you've been doing!

Feeling depressed, Ciel could only howl unhappily in his heart.
