The Useless 8th Prince

Refuse to Kneel

“Rush only. You guys won't manage to kill me.”

Ciel who was already standing was trembling looking at the seven people who were standing not too far away from him. The young man held the sword tightly despite the expression on his face being quite pale. He kept an eye on the opponent without neglecting the small details.

The night sky was full of stars. The arrival of ‘Gehenna Butterflies’ scale magic really barely wiped out all the locusts. Probably less than 5% left. Although it was only 5%, it was probably still over a million locusts.

“I should have said that, Prince Luciel.”

The young man opened his mask. As her appearance was revealed, Ciel's expression became even more dignified.

“Include, my name is Jean. The man who will kill you, Prince Luciel.”

Jean, Kun's son, looks different from the previous one. If she had previously had brown hair and irises, now she had jet-black hair and green irises with strange patterns. Not only that, there was a black line from the left forehead that was straight down until the jaw passed through his left eye.

The robe that Jean and six others were using had been tattered from being bombarded by gehenna butterflies. Eventually the seven of them threw away the black cloak that might have been annoying during that fight. When he saw their appearance, Ciel immediately inhaled a cold breath.

Other than Jean who was a little strange because of the iris pattern of the eyes, the black stripe, and finally the left arm which was completely black. Some of their bodies appear to be breathless or form like insects.

Some have heads like dragonflies and have wings. There was a twin figure that had the head of a praying mantis complete with one of its sickle-shaped arms. There was a girl with grasshopper-like legs as well as some thorns on her elbows. There was a large figure whose body was filled with black breaths and had horns like a rhinoceros beetle. Lastly, the female figure with the iris is similar to Jean, but she has a scorpion tail and her left arm is replaced with a claw.

Because experiments fail, so they become like that, right? Damnit damnit! The person who did it was completely insane.

“Ultimate Venomous Insect Spear.”

After saying that, the remaining grasshoppers instantly swarmed and began to fuse into one. A spear formed after him. But instead of the spear being longer than before, on the contrary, it was roughly only 2.5 meters long.

Although it was shorter and somewhat thinner, the spear looked more threatening and more dangerous. After all, it was made from 10x the number of poisonous locusts than the previous 7-meter spear. It was obviously stronger and terrifying.

The spear floated in front of Jean. The man then took out a spear with his black left hand. At that moment, Ciel's eyes narrowed.

That left arm ... capable of neutralizing poison?

The corner of Ciel's lips lifted. He then muttered, “Pulling.”

“...”

Ciel and Jean looked at each other with indifferent expressions. The black sword in Ciel's hand began to be enveloped by the black flames. The young man took a deep breath.

“So this round is a close combat? Yes ... I don't hate it too much!”

After saying that, Ciel suddenly disappeared from his place. The figure of the young man suddenly appeared in front of Jean while raising his sword high with both hands.

“Sial!”

Jean directly positioned her spear horizontally. He held it with both hands while lifting it up. Ciel instantly slashed with a cold expression. As the sword and spear collided, Jean felt the fierce power of the opponent. He seemed to be holding back a mountain that fell on his head.

“Now!” exclaim Jean.

Accompanied by Jean's yet-to-fade scream, the twins immediately shot towards Ciel. The two of them instantly swung one of their sickle-shaped hands. The target is clear ... the Prince's neck!

Ciel clucked in dissatisfaction while jumping back. But before he was relieved, it turned out that the humanoid dragonfly had already flown and swung a fist towards him. He ruthlessly slashed straight towards the dragonfly but managed to be avoided.

At the moment the dragonfly humanoid dodged, a silhouette instantly shot out from behind him towards Ciel. That's the grasshopper girl. The girl immediately kicked hard right in Ciel's stomach. The young man was immediately pushed a few meters back.

Not yet able to breathe a sigh of relief, Ciel saw a humanoid rhinoceros beetle was throwing a lump of earth at him. As he cuts the chunk of earth with his sword, Jean and the scorpion girl emerge from the right and left. Both of them thrust their spears and poisonous tails towards Ciel.

Ciel's six black wings flapped, at that moment, he once again disappeared. When it appeared, the young man was seen hovering several meters in the air while looking at his seven enemies.

Ciel glanced at the stain on his shirt as he muttered, “Those attacks are not painful at all. But still ... dredged is troublesome and annoying.”

Ciel who has innate talent ‘Devour’ has the ability to level up just by eating. In addition, his abilities were also very fraudulent as he could absorb the characteristics of what he ate. Adding to its strength, speed, and defense.

Undeniably ...really the characteristics of one of the seven skills that surpassed the legendary tiers.

“Should I kill them?” muttered Ciel with a cold expression.

Ciel hesitated to show other magic. So far he has shown the world that he has both gravity and fire magic. In addition, the young man also showed that he had a very good physique. If shows too much, he will come out of the category ‘hazard’ for the enemies and enter the category ‘must be killed’.

Though Ciel himself has some magic that he is better at than fire magic. But he couldn't get it out. Instead, the young man planned to use magic whose mastery was worse than fire magic.

Gravity, fire, and ice. It doesn't seem like a bad combination.

Sensing his mana recovering faster, Ciel looked at his seven opponents with a playful smile. He had never tested the combined magic before. The young man felt like testing the magic on a life target.

Ciel extinguished the black fire that enveloped the sword and sheathed it. The young man pointed towards his seventh opponent as he said, “Kneeled.”

As Ciel's voice echoed, the seven people felt an extremely strong earth-pulling force. They felt their bodies were several times heavier all of a sudden. One by one they finally fell to their knees on the ground.

Ughhhh! I guess I'm still a little overdone.

Using such complicated magic, Ciel who recently used ‘Gehenna Butterflies’ magic instantly felt dizzy. His head was buzzing, his brain felt like it was being ripped apart.

When he saw his seven opponents, Ciel was shocked. The reason is …

Other than the six people kneeling on the ground, Jean was still standing gritting her teeth.

He really refused to kneel!
