The Useless 8th Prince

Son and Princess of Queen Lilith

In response, Ciel simply smiled amiably while waving.

“Thank you for your welcome. Sorry, I'm in a hurry to see Her Majesty Queen.”

Relying on the name ‘Your Majesty Ratu’, Ciel easily got rid of those sycophants. One of the men hurriedly spoke.

“Because this is an interest involving Her Majesty the Queen, of course we dare not delay. Safe travel, Prince Luciel.”

“Thank you.”

After saying that, Ciel immediately passed through the palace gate while riding on Deschia. The knights were amazed when they saw him. Even in the palace, such mounts were still arguably top class.

The front yard of the palace is very spacious, there are fountains and many well-maintained flower gardens. Even the floor is neat and very clean. Ciel immediately passed through the front yard circling the main palace and headed towards the Northern Palace.

Looking at the tall, white, and majestic building it made Ciel sigh long. He didn't expect to be back here soon. The young man had not even left for a year, but his mother actually called him back.

Arriving at the front courtyard of the Northern Palace, the knights who were directly under Queen Lilith immediately saluted. One of the knights even shouted out loudly.

“Prince Luciel has arrived!” exclaim that knight.

“Welcome back, Prince Luciel!” shout the other knights simultaneously.

The corner of Ciel's lips twitched. He felt that this reception was too much. After all, the young man had seen the knights escort him away from the palace with a cold face. Instead, they greeted him with respect.

The main door of the palace opened, the figure of a beautiful woman appeared wearing a black dress with silver ornaments and decorations. Behind him, there was a girl who looked similar to that woman. Looking at Ciel who was riding a Wyvern from a distance, the two of them looked surprised.

“Welcome home, little Ciel. It's nice to see mom.”

Ciel who saw her mother felt a bit strange. Usually the woman is gentle and kind to him. Yet now Ciel faintly felt a threatening feeling from him.

Arriving near the stairs leading to the door, Ciel descended from Deschia's back. He patted Wyvern's head while whispering, “Wait a minute here.”

After making Deschia wait, Ciel immediately approached her mother and sister. Up in front of the two, the young man placed one hand on his left chest before bowing respectfully.

“Your son is home, Mother.”

“So polite?” Queen Lilith tilted her head. “It looks like you're having fun at the southern border. Since childhood, I haven't seen you this active. You even look a little thinner.”

Despite saying so, Ciel who looked into his mother's eyes already understood what the woman meant.

‘So you have the ability? So all this time you lied to the mother who every day grieves to think about your future? You really dare ..’

Uhuk!

“Perhaps because the area is quite beautiful, so this son feels like playing around.” After choosing a word, Ciel finally said that.

“Hehehehe ..” Queen Lilith looked at Ciel with a smile on her face. “Mom is really curious about your little adventure. You don't mind telling me, do you, little Ciel?”

“I-It ... It can be set, Mother. But this son had to drive Deschia to the cage. He's a little less docile with other people. I'm afraid he'll bite people to death.”

Ciel instantly made an excuse without blinking, as if he was already very skilled at doing just that. Queen Lilith who saw her son began to reason looked grim. Resisting the anger, the woman said, “Good. Do what you want to do as usual.”

As usual?

Hearing that made Ciel feel excited. He hurriedly bowed politely as he said, “Thank you very much, Mother.”

Seeing Ciel leave with a carefree expression, the corner of Queen Lilith's lips twitched, Not long after, the woman smiled mysteriously.

Despite not knowing why her master was so happy, Deschia casually rubbed her head in Ciel's embrace. The young man immediately smiled before finally leaving the Wyvern himself.

Not immediately go to see his mother, Ciel who was used to not being noticed chose to go quietly. He circled the Northern Palace building. Until he saw the window of his room, the young man finally stopped. Ciel plans to play his old tricks, coming and going through the window.

As long as she hasn't had dinner, Ciel doesn't want to be interrogated by her mother. If at dinner, he would not be questioned too much because there would be both brothers and also the wife of his older brother.

I miss that soft bed and that pile of interesting books.

Ciel thought as he began to drift slowly. However when he set foot onto the balcony outside his room, the young man was stunned when he saw what was inside the room.

There, Queen Lilith sat on a chair near her study table smiling at her who was about to enter through the window. Ciel instantly felt like a petty thief that the owner of the house was petrifying.

“You remind me when you caught you out of a window while ditching class be it magic lessons or sword, little Ciel.”

“Ya .. This son is reminiscing, Mother.”

“Hehehe .. nostalgic? Although less than four months out of the house?”

“...”

“Now you need to explain everything to mom, little Ciel.”

“Actives ..”

Geck! Geck! Geck!

“Come in,” said Queen Lilith with an unhappy expression. Seeing that the one who entered was Lilia, he asked, “What's the matter, Lilia?”

“Mother ... It .. Ayahanda, Brother Alex, and Sister Julia are on their way to the Northern Palace.”

Hmmm??? Why so suddenly? Doesn't matter. This has allowed me to escape from my mother's interrogation.

Thought Ciel with a relieved smile on his face.

“Little Daniel, you come with us to welcome your brothers and sisters who have arrived.” Queen Lilith immediately ruled.

“But I'm tired ... Ah! I mean, all right, Mom.” Looking at his cold-looking mother, Ciel instantly became a submissive boy.

Although somewhat lazy, she along with her mother and sister waited in front of the door of the Northern Palace. Not long after, a horse-drawn carriage approached. At the moment of stopping, two figures came out from there.

One was a 20-year-old woman with glowing red hair plus blue irises like the sky. She looked tall, elegant, and beautiful. But clearly ... the woman had an arrogant attitude that was not covered up.

While the other was a handsome 20-year-old man, he had silver hair with ruby-like red irises. His skin looked pale and his vision looked so cold. He was wearing white clothes mixed in a little black with gold ornaments.

He is the elder brother of Ciel and 4th Prince Alexander Dawnbringer.

Alexander did not say a word, but suddenly disappeared from his place. When he appeared, he was seen in front of Ciel while swinging the sword that was enveloped in the sharp and ferocious wind element right into his sister's neck.

Ciel who did not expect her own brother to suddenly attack her instantly dodged. His figure as if flashing, suddenly appeared on the other side.

Ciel and Alexander looked at each other in silence.
