Storyline
Victorian London is home to a 12-year-old Count named Ciel Phantomhive. The Count fired at the Phantomhive’s mansion after an unknown assailant attacked him after his 10th birthday on December 14, 1885. In the chaos, Ciel discovers that his parents Vincent and Rachel Phantomhive are dead with his family dog Sebastian.
That same night, he was kidnapped by an attacker and marketed into slavery, where he fell into the hands of a sadistic and demon-worshiping cult. Since then, Ciel has suffered endless physical, emotional, and sexual abuse by prisoners of war. Ciel was also branded with what is called the “Mark of the Beast”. One night, during a sacrificial ritual to summon the devil, instead of signing a contract with a cult member, he explains that he was summoned by Ciel, so he only agrees to sign a contract with him. So, kill all the cult members.
To show that the contract has been signed, the devil places a contract symbol called the Faust Contract Symbol in Ciel’s right eye, giving it a shade of purple, and his iris and students show the contract symbol. After completing the contract, the devil reveals that he will consume Ciel’s soul as a payment to help him reach his goal. Revenge on those who defeated the House Phantom Hive. Ciel then names the devil Sebastian Michaelis after his dead dog. The duo then returns to society when Ciel takes over the former position of his deceased father as the Queen’s Watchdog.
This is a very prominent person who was responsible for investigating cases that Queen Victoria himself considered particularly important, or threatened England and held her crown.
