This new arc will focus on the level of Ciel as he receives a letter from Queen Victoria telling him that several students at Weston College, one of England’s top public schools, have seemingly disappeared, including a relative of hers named Derick.”
Now, Sebastian and Ciel decide to infiltrate Weston College to uncover the truth behind the students’ disappearances. How they manage to solve the mystery forms the crux of the story.
The Public School Arc is known for its elaborate plotline and excellent character development. This arc blends its supernatural elements with a Victorian aesthetic and grips the audience.
