Didn't notice 1st time around but this is very cool.

Maybe I'm odd, but when I first saw the cover of chapter 211 - this:

My first thought was that it reminded me of this:

This scene was EVERYTHING. "Pretty" Master Michaelis goes full demon mode. My favorite scene in the manga and this didn't disappoint.

"Sebastian! That's an order!" "Yes, my lord."

Black Butler Volume 3: Chapter 13

pt. 6

A brief pause before Ciel uses the most plausible excuse he could come up with. Love the brief switch to Sebastian Vision as we look through his POV down at Ciel's perturbed little face.

The demon is left speechless - if only from the sheer audacity. What cheekiness from his young master, to think that his butler's 'life' should be a fair exchange for keeping his own hands clean.

This is our first instance of seeing Sebastian's devil heels - or, one of them, anyway; the other leg appears to end in wisps of smoke just above the knee, as though the form is incomplete or in the midst of changing.

I find it interesting that Yana nearly never draws Sebastian's demonic form as being 'complete' - not just in the sense of us not having seen the entirety of the guise on a single page, bit in that the form itself is generally not whole, ending in shrouds of shadow or with gaps strung together with black smudge. Is it possibly because of him not having been formally tied to a contract yet? As though his existence was in other ways also not quite yet formed; still constantly shifting, manifesting only in part somewhere between this world and the next.

And again, we get the briefest glimpse of the last sacrifice:

R!Ciel's blood dripping from the altar, his body once again hidden just out of frame.

Ciel is calling directly back to Sebastian's own words about the 'aesthetic' that he holds, using the same wording of the 'aesthetic' being his 'philosophy'. In possessing no 'beliefs' or 'loyalty', demons do not adhere to what humans consider as morality, acting not on what is 'good' or 'right', only on what benefits the contract. Ciel recognises this, and that it is ironically Sebastian's own will to devour him at the conclusion of their deal that currently keeps him alive and safe in his presence.

I wonder what - if anything - the shadowing in that third panel there is supposed to represent. Is it just a textural background for aditional speech? the smokiness of Sebastian's demonic form? Or is it indicative of another memory from the night the covenant was formed...

... It may be coincidental, but the framing of the potential figure with its blank white eyes seems similar to a panel soon to arrive in Chapter 14:
