The Useless 8th Prince
Batch First and Go
Later that night, Ciel is approached by Camellia. Since Zack's arrival, the girl had slightly kept her distance from Ciel and was busy taking care of potion making.
“I came to report, Tuanku.”
“Log.”
Entering the room, Camellia immediately closed the door and approached Ciel who was sitting on the edge of the bed. The girl sat next to him and leaned her head against his shoulder.
“Is there any good news?” ask Ciel.
“Iya,” said Camellia who closed her eyes. “Batch first potion finished.”
“Hmm? One day ahead of schedule?”
“Indeed. They work hard to repay your kindness, my lord. Especially Tania.”
“Tania .. she has a good talent in potion making.” Ciel nodded.
Within a day, the new Alchemists including Tania produced 10 potions per person. In total, a day of 20 people produces a minimum of 200 potions. In two weeks means 200 x 14 .. 2800 bottles of potion. That's the minimum amount you get.
Unlike the shadow division, Ciel did not make everyone in the normal division get potions. In every two weeks, the best 2500 people are chosen to be given potions.
If divided, 1000 people Striker division, 1000 people Guardian division, and 500 people Watcher division. It makes them compete for a better position to receive potions, things that are able to make them stronger with a little faster.
So, Ciel needed 2500 potions every two weeks. The remaining 300 potions or so, in addition to the 40 potions Ciel gave alchemists for consumption each week, he planned to sell them. The proceeds of the sale could be used to raise the Alchemists. Giving them an upgrade despite only working in the medicine room and rarely fighting outside.
Although it rarely comes out, personal strength is important. In addition to preventing various things that might happen, stronger means that it can increase the efficiency of making potions.
“It looks like you really like Tania,” added Ciel while looking at Camellia who hugged her hand.
“That's.” Camellia nodded slightly. “After all, we are both Dhampirs. Not to mention .. Actually I once wanted to have a brother or sister. To me, Tania is already like a sister.”
“I didn't expect you to have such thoughts.”
“Maybe that kind of thing that orphans like me think,” Camellia said.
“You have me and the others .. You are not alone, Camellia.”
“That's what I'm grateful for, sir. I am so grateful that you bought me that day. Otherwise, maybe I will end up in a dark and narrow space as the pet of those people.” Camellia said calmly. But Ciel could feel gratitude and hatred in each of his words.
“It looks like you still hate nobles a lot.” Ciel shook his head lightly.
“Not just me, almost most common folk hate nobles, Sir. Yet we are all powerless to face the power of nobles and can only resign. Besides ... not many good nobles like you.”
“What do you think of Zack? He treats everyone the same. He is always optimistic and positive.” Ciel glanced at Camellia.
“She does fall into the good category, sir. It's just, in my opinion .. The young master of the Flamehart Family was just stupid.”
In his room, Zack suddenly sneezes. The young man immediately turned his head left and right suspiciously. Looking at the window that was still open, he exclaimed, “Ah! So because of that.”
Meanwhile, Ciel who saw Camellia's honesty smiled. His right hand hugged the girl's waist while his left hand held her chin. Ciel then gave a gentle kiss on Camellia's lips.
“You can't say that. Although Zack was like that, he was kind and did not hide in a mask like the other nobles. That's why I consider him a friend.”
With a red face and a drunken expression, Camellia nodded silently. He then looked up while closing his eyes, gesturing for Ciel to give more.
After a warm hug and a few gentle kisses, Camellia once again leaned against Ciel's chest with a satisfied face.
“By the way ... when do you also receive Elena's sister, Mister?” ask Camellia.
Ciel tilted his head, looking at Camellia in confusion. “Sister Elena?”
“True. I'm sure you chose him, too, sir. Am I wrong?” ask Camellia.
“You ... little girl.” Ciel shook his head lightly. “Let the time that answers it.”
“Already. I have a task for you.” Ciel patted Camellia on the head. “Tomorrow you and Elena will share the potion while giving the soldiers an announcement. Once every two weeks, they will be evaluated, each division has a limited slot for potion.” division
“I understand, Mr.”
“It's late. Come back first.”
“But I still want to be with you, Mr.”
“For now, I still limit what is done in relationships. I have a lot to do. I don't want and don't have any interest in doing excessive things.”
Hearing Ciel's nagging, Camellia was a bit displeased. But he still complies. After all, Ciel was too rational and always knew what to or not do.
Camellia gave a gentle kiss on Ciel's cheek before standing up and tidying up her clothes. The girl bowed politely before saying, “Then I go first, Mr.”
Ciel nodded in response.
Upon seeing Camellia leave, he let out a long sigh.
“Is that how interesting watching in the shadows is, Isabella?”
“It was very interesting, Sir. Even make this slave a little excited.”
The elegant as well as spoiled female voice sounded from the darkness. Hearing that, Ciel shook his head lightly.
“You know I won't do it to you, right?”
“...”
The room became quiet. After a while, the voice sounded again.
“This boy will not give up, my lord. Later you will understand the seriousness of this slave.”
After the sentence was heard, Ciel felt the figure of Isabella leaving the room. The young man could only sigh long. He murmured in his heart.
Maybe if you could distinguish what love and obsession mean.
...***...
Two days later.
Ciel, Zack, and the group of knights who had come with them had prepared. Because they will go to the wedding party of the 4th Prince and Ciel's brother, Alexander Dawnbringer, Ariana also joined Ciel. After all, he was Ciel's fiancee.
Ciel and Ariana were in the same carriage. Since Camellia and the others had tasks to do, Flora and Fiona went along with them. Both are in the same train.
Meanwhile, Deschia was flying above the clouds while watching the surroundings. And Zack .. he chose to ride his own mount.
“Are you ready, Rivalku?” ask Zack who's riding his mount.
“No, but want how else ... this is my sister's own wedding party.”
“Why do you look lethargic, Rivalku? This trip must be fun!”
Pleasing head! If you and the knights do not come .. I will go alone with Deschia!
Besides being faster, it was freer!
Ciel took a long breath. She glanced at Ariana, the Doll Princess as well as her fiance. Two twin servants followed him. Then Ciel glanced at Zack.
The young man took a long breath.
People who cannot be expected. On this trip .. it looks like I'm going to play the role of a babysitter.
