The Useless 8th Prince

Be a Little Civilized!

Actually I want to fly immediately to search around, but …

Ciel looked towards the river not too far away from him. There, Elena was washing her face. Looking at the woman, the confused Ciel should feel sad or happy.

“Are you okay, Elena?” ask Ciel.

“I'm fine, Mr.”

“I told you, you shouldn't have to come. You better stay at Black Lily Castle with Camellia.” Ciel let out a long sigh after saying that.

“No!” exclaimed Elena with a stern expression.

“Why do you insist on following me, Elena?”

“I ..” Elena lowered. “I think could be the best sword for you. But it turns out I was wrong. Asterious ...he is at level 4 (early) the same as me. He fought very well while fighting in Blackrock City. Now you also have Jean, the more powerful and useful level 4 (end) demon at war.”

“What do you mean?” Ciel tilted his head with a puzzled expression.

“If I were like this, I would be useless!”

“Why do you feel that way? Aren't you stronger than Camellia?”

“Camellia different! He has been with you for five years! She is a good girl, can help you in taking care of the affairs of the territory, and also good at cooking!”

Ciel came down from the rock and immediately approached Elena. “You also helped me in taking care of my territory, Elena. Don't think like-”

“NO!!”

Elena suddenly crouched down while holding her head. Bad memories of when he was sent to the battlefield and the loss of a family suddenly flashed through his mind.

“If I am useless, revenge is impossible. If I am useless, I will definitely be thrown away,” Elena muttered with a blank look. “I have lost a bet, I will be thrown ... I will be thrown ..”

Ciel who saw Elena looking depressed immediately knelt in front of her before instantly pulling the woman's hand. His eyes immediately narrowed.

“I've guessed,” muttered Ciel.

Ignoring Elena who kept muttering and looked depressed, Ciel instead focused on a small bite mark on Elena's wrist. He then took out a bottle of potion from his bag and gave it to Elena.

“Minum,” says Ciel.

Elena looked at the potion bottle then looked towards Ciel who was holding it. His expression grew even paler as he fell backwards with a frightened look.

“No! Don't kill me ... don't kill me ..”

Ciel guessed, Elena thought she was giving the woman a poison. It made him smile bitterly. In the end, Ciel approached Elena slowly then directly hugged her.

Seeing Elena trying to run from her arms, Ciel whispered, “It's okay, Elena. I'm right here. I'm not leaving. I won't leave you either, okay?”

“I ... I ..” Elena still mutters with a fearful expression. But clearly, Ciel felt that his body was not too stiff.

Ciel stroked the back of Elena's head while continuing to whisper, “I'm not going anywhere. I'm not gonna throw you out, okay?”

Seeing Elena a little calmer, Ciel stopped hugging her. He just kept stroking the back of Elena's head that was leaning on him.

Finished making Elena drink the potion, Ciel stayed in place while continuing to hold Elena who was struggling. The woman kept clawing at him. After his mouth was not crammed with potions, he even bit Ciel.

Gradually, Elena started to calm down. An exhausted expression mixed with a sleepy expression was seen on her beautiful face. Ciel stroked the back of his head while whispering softly, “Rest.”

Hearing Ciel's whisper, Elena who was leaning on the young man started to close her eyes. Seeing that, Ciel heaved a sigh of relief. Realizing Elena had fallen asleep, the worried Ciel started thinking about something else.

Em ... Soft? Fragrant?

Ciel's eyes blinked. He glanced down, looking at Elena's face. Her gaze suddenly focused onto Elena's soft-looking pink lips. He subconsciously brought his face closer to Elena's face.

Jeez .. what am I thinking.

Ciel who regained consciousness instantly distanced his face. He then laid Elena on the grass after making sure there were no harmful insects or creatures there.

When he stood up, Ciel subconsciously glanced back at the sleeping Elena. He began to focus on the soft skin, black clothes, and his mind began to drift.

Long and beautiful legs. Also ... isn't ‘gun’ that kind of big? Not heavy?

Damnit damnit! What am I thinking!

Ciel ruffled his own hair. Turning his gaze towards him and Elena had just passed by. More precisely, the area that Elena passed through earlier. By the time he approached a tree near the river, Ciel's eyes narrowed.

Found you!

The young man suddenly approached the leaves then made a grabbing motion. He felt something move and tried to run away from his hand. After being observed, it appeared that a very beautiful snake was struggling to escape from Ciel's hands.

The snake had a green color with a purple pattern like a ring. The snake also has two horns on its head as well as spines on its back to its tail. If exposed to light, the scales will look like emerald and amethys. The name of the snake was .. Purple Rings Emerald Viper.

Indeed the snake looks small with a length of less than 15 cm. But the snake was clearly an adult. Even so, this was still a level 3 Demonic Beast. This snake has no strong defense, not too fast, and is arguably weak. But what makes this snake so valuable is its poison and how rare it is.

The poison had no blood-freezing, corrosive, or any such effect. But you could say it is more dangerous. The venom from this snake can make people hallucinate. Not good or beautiful hallucinations, but vice versa.

This snake is able to bewitch the person it bites to feel anxiety. Issuing worries that are buried in the bottom of the heart and exaggerating them. If it has a lower level and bad mentality, it is not uncommon for the victim to be able to kill himself because of stress.

This creature is like a demon who always whispers the word for the figure to kill himself.

Despite having such an effect, the Purple Rings Emerald Viper's poison could also be used to concoct medicine. That material is very rare and valuable. Even in the demon continent, these Demonic Beasts could be considered rare.

With this little boy's poison, I can make some very useful types of medicine. The easiest is probably the drug. A drug that makes women submit to .. Uhuk! Forget that!

Damnit damnit! What I really think.

Observing the snake in his hand, Ciel took a deep breath before exhaling it slowly.

Was it because I was in the forest that I became a bit wild? Natural instincts?

Relax Ciel! Cool out! You from the modern world, be a little civilized!

Ciel cursed to himself, but his eyes continued to look at the snake in his hand like one finding a treasure.
