...Is it raining?...

So why are we lying here in the rain? Let yourself get wet ...So cold.. And it's all in agony in this whole instance.

What happened here.....

...Alright..

Mr. Noi.....

A cheeky Ciel sat up as soon as the soft voice rang out in his memory. Blue eyes wide open.. When I remembered the final feelings of my own death. Still remembering the warmth of Sebastian's lips and the deep, brutal pain that stabbed him.

....He's dead...

And he gave his soul to the devil in the form of that butler as promised... Even though my heart is so scared and tired

But a contract must be a contract...

“Are you awake, young master?”

The person who was called by this familiar word turned quickly to the source of the voice and would be even more confused than before. The image of a tall young man in an immaculate black tuxedo stood still not far away, his body slightly bowed. It's a familiar sight for the past 2 years.

“....Sebastian...”

This isn't right here.. Since he and this demon have ended their bond with each other, why..

Ciel winced as he sensed something unusual around him. Apart from being in the middle of a vast stone field with strange scenery, Not only the butler, who was like a shadow of his own, still hasn't disappeared. Not only was he still breathing even though everything should have ended long ago, but....

The young leader of the Phantomhive looked down and surveyed himself once more.

“What is this?”

Sebastian only let out a small smile as he looked at the red face and the small figure in a pitch black robe with sparkling eyes. before stepping forward and handing his only remaining hand to his master

“Are you really shocked?”

A large, powerful hand wrapped around her slender upper arm and pulled her to her feet while answering the question.

“This is my world. ..The land where the sun shines.. Living things wither Without hope to even breathe

And yes.. you have fulfilled the agreement between us.”

“Then why has my body changed? Like this!” A trembling voice asked with fear as his little hand tightened on the veil when he realized that under this important veil, there was nothing covering the body.

This time, the young demon's smile was wider than before. ...Ruby eyes shone brightly as if he was in amusement. He flicked the tip of his bright red tongue along the sharp fangs in his mouth as he stared at his opponent without batting an eye.

“It is my own desire.

I had to make my own mark on the young master's body. So that no other demons will invade you. Combined with the fact that only a soul remains like this.. It is therefore very easy to temporarily transform the young master's body into that of a woman.”

“Do.. why...?”

“Ah... Actually, I should have known that children.. will still be children all day long.”

“This.. you!..” Ciel's jaw clenched as soon as he heard those cruel words and his eyes instantly turned a bright, dark blue. He was shocked when his body was scooped up into his arms and lifted off the ground.

“Don't forget.. That now I don't need to be by Young Master's side again now that our contract has ended.” Sebastian calmly took a long step along the rough stone path, looking up at the red sky. which was full of some living things flying around.

“Usually, after a demon receives a soul as a sacrifice, it usually consumes it to increase its own power. And when I was injured and lost my arm like this...

Have you ever thought about how lucky you are to still be alive and safe?”

“Well.. then why don't you hurry up and eat it?”

“That's why... Young Master really doesn't know the reason. If that's the case, I'll tell you.”

"do not need!! ...Well.. I don't want to know the answer. So where are we going?”

Ciel quickly changed the subject before looking around...

In addition to the pitch-black stone walkway that stretched out endlessly, The rest were ruins filled with rocks, both large and small, strewn as far as the eye could see, looking like red bushes dyed by the light of the sky. The head of the Phantomhive tried to ignore his confidant's teasing smile.

But he had to exclaim when the arms holding his body suddenly tightened and a strange look appeared in his eyes.

“Because if you were still a man, I wouldn't be able to declare ownership.

The spirit looks so delicious.. If left unattended, what do you think will happen? I can believe that within less than a minute, the young master will be completely swarmed by those flying above.”

....I will be by your side forever. Until the last day of my life....

Those words suddenly rang out, causing his smooth white face to suddenly turn a deep shade of pink.

Sebastian really did that all along.

In the form of a close butler.. This young demon had hardly left his side even in his final moments. But this time, the word 'declaration of ownership' was terrifying. Hopefully it won't... It's exactly what I'm afraid of.

“So what do you plan to do next? Are you going to carry me around like this with just one arm left?”

Sebastian smiled at that question... No matter when This person will continue to be his little lamb.

Even though you can eat it. But he chose to keep this soul and endure it in this pathetic human form instead of returning to his true, powerful yet hideous body. ..just because I didn't want to see someone's frightened look in their eyes.

...Huh.. What's wrong with him? Will you be born with a heart?

A top demon like him was terrified.. No, mourning a soul to the point of agreeing to be crippled for the rest of its long life...

Is that so or....

“That's a good idea, sir. But actually I was going to take the young master to my house. You will cleanse yourself and rest. Then eat the dinner I prepared for you.”

"Why..

even though the sacrifice was already in hand Even though I have my soul in my hand, why don't I do what I want?!”

...even though there is no need to play the role of a butler anymore....

Why.. Sebastian

“Do you really want me to do that or…”

Ciel winced and closed his eyes tightly when he was suddenly dropped to the ground. The little body was no longer fully overwhelmed by the pain it was experiencing when the strong fingers tightened around its throat. The warm breath that brushed his face made the young man stiffen, opening his eyes to look. before being shocked when his eyes suddenly locked with the glistening ruby.

Which no matter how cold it looks.. If Ciel found himself staring into Sebastian's eyes, they were mesmerized. The young demon smiled, revealing a pair of sharp fangs on his face for a moment before lowering his head until they were almost close to each other.

“Originally I wanted to devour this lovely soul as I waited for so long. Until you said that sentence.”

....do not need.. Make it as painful as you can..

Take out all the pain that has passed in my life and put it into my soul...

“What were you thinking at that time? young master

Your right...At this time I am not a good butler anymore, so please give me a good answer. Don't let this demon displease you."

“Shh! There's nothing at all. I didn't think anything of it. If you change your mind and want to take action, you can come at any time.”

The young leader of Phantomhide kept his mouth shut and turned his head away. If the brain could clearly sense the young demon's touch... The tight grip around his throat slowly loosened and Ciel guessed that his existence was fading as his soul was consumed. Yet the young man still closed his eyes tightly and calmly waited for his final moments bravely.

But what I realized later was the soft touch that was pressed against my lips.

Sebastian touched the tips of his sharp, jet-black nails to the side of his cheek to cup his face as he gave him a lingering kiss, feeling the panic of his former master. So he let out a small sigh before pulling his lips up and scooping his small body into his arms.

“Aren't you going to give me a little bit of joy? What a heartless person..

If so.. Shall I be the one to tell you what happened to the young master? Both things that happened between us before you regained consciousness and things that you're wondering about, but..ah... if you just tell me it might still not be very clear. Let me just show you one more time.”

The demon in the form of a butler gave a sweet smile before taking off the robes on Ciel's body without listening to any protest. While he screamed and tried to resist with all his might, but was there... Can fight with the strength of a demon

“Stop.. Stop now!! This is an order!!”

“It's useless.... When you don't get an answer from your mouth. I would like to ask from your body, young master.”

"enough!! I'll tell you...I just don't want to lose those 2 years! Now you can release me!!”

Sebastian had to reluctantly let go of his trembling little body. The young demon sighed deeply before covering Ciel with the cloth and pushing him away.

“That's all...”

The Phantomhive Master tightened his veil as he sat up. while feeling ashamed of the state in which he was breathing so hard that his whole body was trembling like this But no matter what, this demon had already seen everything.

...What will you do with such a happy face? Really disturbing...

“Do you know, please, young master? Humans like to think that death is the end of everything. But actually it is the beginning of a new journey.”

Sebastian wrapped Ciel in his arms and started walking again. Light from the sky above shone on their bodies, making them look red. A long, butler-style tuxedo that flutters in the wind. Casting a long shadow behind Meanwhile.. The lower demons who had been waiting for such a delicious meal for so long seemed disappointed.

They let out ear-piercing screams of discomfort before flying away. So there was only the butler and the little master who were moving forward alone.

“My castle is at the end of this walkway.”

Those words caused the young man to turn around and look at him in surprise.

“Does a demon like you have a home?”

“Actually, it should be called a 'nest' rather than a young master. But it was a place as well decorated as the Phantomhive family's mansion. And there I will do my duty.. which had made a promise to you No matter what happens, I will always be by your side. Until the last day of my life

At this time, the young master's soul was connected to mine. So if I'm still here, you'll be too.. But the day I have to disappear... At that time, you too will have to follow me.”

“And don't forget. What did you promise me?”

Ciel took a deep breath and looked ahead. For the first time in my life, hope blossomed in my heart. It's funny that when he was alive he didn't expect anything. But now it seems that the promise has changed into a bond and will last for a long time...

“Yes, My Lord ”
