The Charles Becomes a Wizard

The cold liquid slid down his cheeks and Charles' laughter gradually died down.

He lowered his head, his soft hair covering most of his face.

"Sebastian." His voice was slightly hoarse, but he had obviously calmed down.

"Tell me, was the kidnapping I encountered a few days ago an accident?"

There were so many students in Hogsmeade, many of whom were traveling alone. Why did that person choose me? Why did he take me with him to escape despite Lucius's obstruction?

Ciel had reason to suspect that he was a deliberately chosen target, and he also had reason to suspect that those who thought the Phantomhive family was a nuisance had a hand in this.

Maybe those people really wanted him to be a "sacrifice",

Or maybe this kidnapping is just a warning to the Phantomhive family from the person behind the scenes...

After all, if he really fell into the hands of those beasts in human form, Phantomhive's origin would become proof of his rare value, and the humiliation he would suffer would only increase, not decrease...

The Phantomhive family has blocked the way of too many people over the years, and countless people hate them to the core. Insulting him is like insulting the entire Phantomhive family.

Those disgusting guys will never give up this opportunity...

They probably had no intention of breaking off relations with the Phantomhive family directly. It was just a warning, and the weight of a second son without inheritance rights was just right.

However, the timing of Lucius's appearance was too coincidental, as if someone had deliberately arranged to rescue him.

"What? I'm being treated as a soft persimmon..." Charles laughed.

"Master?" Sebastian tilted his head in confusion.

"Sebastian, go investigate."

"I have already eliminated the person who attacked you that day. How about leaving the rest to Master Vincent?"

"You are not Count Phantomhive now. You don't have to bear the sins hidden in the darkness anymore. The Phantomhive family is currently developing very well in the wizarding world."

"You have all the wealth and status under your control, and you will have a beautiful fiancé in the future," the devil's lips curled up slightly, and his low and elegant voice was full of temptation: "How about giving up those ridiculous responsibilities and ideas, and living happily like this."

"Ah, that seems like a good idea," the boy murmured.

The curve of the devil's mouth widened, and his white-gloved palm was shrouded in thick black mist. He raised his arm and was about to touch the ends of Charles' hair across the table.

"But," Charles suddenly raised his head, his deep blue eyes looking straight at him. Sebastian abruptly withdrew his hand and stared at him blankly.

"I didn't live for happiness. Even if I bear a bad reputation, I will make those who regard me as a tool and try to humiliate the Phantomhive family pay the price."

what......

The figure that walked towards the light without hesitation, the figure that stubbornly and resolutely walked towards hell...

How beautiful and stupid...

Sebastian's pupils trembled slightly, he walked around the table slowly to Ciel and knelt on one knee.

"Then please give the orders, young master." He raised his head slightly and looked at the boy in front of him.

"Sebastian, this is an order. Find all those who participated in the Black Mass."

"Yes, my lord." The devil in black took the boy's right hand and gave a light kiss on the back of his hand.

When I put on the crown entangled with sin,

Your soul will surely,

Delicious mouth-watering...

......

Due to the intervention of the wizard, Sebastian's investigation did not go so smoothly. After more than half a month, he only found some marginal figures, and those who were really capable of planning were hiding very well.

Charles didn't push him too much, and the days passed by slowly.

Then, Sebastian brought Ciel a new piece of news.

"You mean, there have been a lot of cases of missing children all over the country recently?" Charles flipped through the documents in his hand, which recorded the specific information of most of the missing children.

The missing children include both boys and girls. The youngest is a girl of only seven years old and the oldest is only fourteen years old. Their economic strength, family background and place of residence are different. It seems that they were taken away randomly.

"Yes, although the police are also searching hard, they did not find any traces of the criminal at the scene of the disappearance." Sebastian said.

Ciel's fingers paused as he flipped through the documents.

If it was just an ordinary missing case, his father would never let Sebastian hand over these investigation reports to him.

unless......

"What did father say?"

"Master Vincent thinks the criminal might be a wizard." Sebastian stepped forward and picked out a few documents and placed them on the table. "The children all disappeared in the middle of the night, as if they were taken away by the Pied Piper of Hamelin. Their families didn't even hear any sound when they disappeared."

"Since no bodies of the children reported missing have been found, the police are still treating this as a missing persons case."

"Huh," Charles closed the document in his hand, "Under normal circumstances, this is indeed the case, but if it is in the underground society, it is possible that..."

"What did the undertaker say? Father should have asked him, right?"

"In the underworld, children's corpses are very common. You should be aware of this kind of thing, right?" Sebastian paused and continued, "But this time it's different. Undertaker claims that he has never handled any corpses, and there are no related rumors in the underworld. In other words..."

"Those children might still be alive?" Charles raised his eyebrows slightly.

"If nothing else, it should be like this."

"So, father suspected that a wizard had hidden those children?"

It is impossible for an ordinary person to be able to hide those children so well under Vincent's nose.

Charles had no doubt that after receiving the mission from the Queen, the most suspicious nobles had been closely monitored by his father early in the morning. But even so, disappearances still occurred frequently in various places.

It was natural for my father to suspect that a wizard had tampered with the situation.

"No other clues?"

He had no idea where to start with the little information he had.

“There’s a circus called Noah’s Ark that performs all over the country,” Sebastian added, “and the places they pass through are exactly where disappearances are happening.”

"..."

"You should have told me this kind of thing in advance, right?"

"Master Vincent hopes that you can pay attention to the developments in the wizarding world. He will arrange for someone to investigate the circus, so you don't need to worry too much."
