In Black Butler season 4 episode 5, Ciel Phantomhive tasks his butler, Michaelis Sebastian, to locate missing students, including Derrick Arden. Sebastian finds no trace of them in the Violet House, leading Ciel to consider contacting the headmaster. Despite resistance from the Purple House Prefect, the other houses' Prefects and Drudges help control the situation.

Ciel learns the headmaster will attend the Weston College's cricket tournament, inviting the Most Valuable Player to the Midnight Tea Party. Despite his doubts about his athletic abilities, Ciel discovers he's been selected, thanks to Sebastian's recommendation. He sees this as a chance to meet the headmaster and solve the mystery, hoping to win to secure an invitation.

Alexis Midford reveals that the Blue House had won the tournament before, lifting Ciel's spirits. Later in a flashback, it's revealed that Ciel's father, Vincent Phantomhive, led the Sapphire Owl house to victory.

Black Butler season 4 episode 6 will commence the Cricket Tournament and reveal more about Ciel's father and how he led his house to victory. Although the current plot is progressing rather slowly, the new season has managed to pique the interest of many old fans.

The overarching plot hasn't progressed much and even the main antagonist hasn't been revealed. The next few episodes, however, will probably reveal the antagonist.
