“Good Duke Evan.” Ernest answered Evan's orders while taking a sitting position right in front of Evan, with a position of sitting alert and alert.
“As you said, Luis seems to be another terror of Tira. Your suspicions, which you told me, during the meeting earlier I tried to prove it by provoking him, and from the visible reaction, he was completely provoked.” Without further ado, Evan immediately conveyed the results of his meeting with Luis earlier this afternoon.
“I'm sure one hundred percent, that he is indeed a terror offender as well. I really did not expect Tira to face the terror of two madmen simultaneously.” Evan said to Ernest.
Hearing that, Ernest hamoir only let out a long sigh before Evan, but held him back with all his might.
“What did Duke Evan manage to see from the figure of Luis?” Ernest's question made Evan hiss softly, and raised one end of his lips.
“It looks like he's quite a dangerous person because he's committing his crimes so structured. It is not easy to prove his crime because he seems to be so careful in acting, and has considered all possibilities.” Evan stopped talking for a moment.
“Luis is a smart person as well as a smart one. He has a lot of sense and is quite thorough, also good at taking advantage of opportunities and conditions, therefore he can get Robin caught easily along with the evidence that Luis has prepared deliberately. For a long time it seemed like Luis had been observing Robin, so that when needed, he would appear as if he was a savior hero, and make people admire and haunt him.” Evan again spoke to Ernest who kept silent while listening to every word Evan with a serious face.
“Ya Duke Evan, my assessment of Luis, is exactly the same as your assessment of him..”.
“I know Ernest.. because among the palace guards, you and Erich are the best knights Gracetian has right now. Your intelligence and dexterity, is not inferior to the nobles who have a higher status than you. Earl Sam as my assistant also acknowledged the prowess of the two of you.” Evan praised Ernest with a face full of sincere smiles, making Evan return the smile with a clumsy attitude, because this time Evan gave open praise to him.
Evan had always shown an attitude where he was willing to accept the advice and input from Ernest, but direct praise like just now made Ernest feel quite shocked, because it was spoken by a duke like Evan, because it was spoken by a duke like Evan, a great general of the Gracetian, who was so skilled in his strategy and military skills.
“I am not as great as Duke Evan.” said Ernest said quietly, making Evan widen his smile.
“Ernest... Why do you think Luis terrorized Tira? Though when viewed from his physique, he is a handsome and well-established man, who should be able to confidently express his love for Tira without having to terrorize the girl he loves like a coward.” Evan's question left Ernest silent for a moment and started to think.
“I don't know, but seeing how he's not confident when he has everything.. Maybe family is the most influential thing on him.” Ernest tries to answer Evan's question.
“From the results of my investigation, about his family background, Luis came from a wealthy family, much richer than Robin's. Like you said, his family that shaped him became like that. His father was a rude man who always physically hurt his mother, even in front of his children. But... Behind the rude nature of papa Luis, it's because mama Luis, is a woman who always cheated with other men.” Ernest was a little stunned when he heard Evan's story about Luis' family background.
“His affair began with an accident that experienced by papa Luis, which caused him to become an impooo man, so mama Luis began to be dissatisfied with his married life and began to look for other men to satisfy him. The absence of loyalty, and abusive behavior within his family, made Luis the money man he is today.” Evan said with a long sigh.
Looking around him, the people he knew were not all able to have such a happy family, it felt like Evan so thought that he was a very lucky child.
Starting from Alvero and Alaya, the wife he loved, their family was only a few years ago able to become a happy family after many years they had to suffer apart from each other, filled with many events that create misunderstandings and heartache.
Then Deanda who suffered a long period of torture with her mother and step-sister.
Coupled with the story of the family of Erich and Ernest who experienced a massive massacre in the village where he lived, it was sad when Evan remembered about all that.
“The poor condition of the family, with Luis' emotional and unstable nature, seems to aggravate the situation, and makes Luis a man who is afraid to be abandoned by his loved ones, so he chose to terrorize Tira, rather than confessing his love for Tira and holding his chest that Tira refused him. He was so afraid of being rejected and abandoned, that he carried out that terror in the hope that Tira would not dare to get close to other men.” Evan's long explanation of Luis, made Ernest speechless in a thousand languages.
For Ernest, however, he felt sympathy for the bad life that befell Luis, but on the other hand, he really couldn't accept Luis wanting to hurt the girl he loved, who is now her lover, Tira Lennan, the lover she wants to protect and fight with all her heart.
“Lizis unstable psychiatric condition, making him able to act very recklessly. You have to be prepared for the bad possibility where he will look for the slightest opportunity to hurt Tira. Never leave Tira alone in a public place without escort for a second.” Evan gave a warning to Ernest with his serious face.
“Both Duke Evan, does Duke Evan have any advice to be able to immediately prove Luis as a terror and arrest him?”
“Just catch his emotions. By pretending to be Tira's lover, you can be more effective in provoking Luis' emotions so that he acts recklessly out of emotion. Show off your affection in front of Luis.” Evan's words just now, really made Ernest's chest beat hard.
Why did duke Evan's words just make me feel that duke Evan knew about my relationship with Tira? Though the idea of Tira some time ago for me to pretend to be chasing after her, no one knows other than me, daughter, Edi and Steven. Edi and Steven, it was impossible to say that to duke Evan, let alone Tira.
Ernest said inwardly as he looked towards the green eyes of the golden-haired man who was staring at him unblinkingly, as if the gaze of Evan's eyes were able to pierce through his day and mind, as if it were his eyes, so you know what Ernest is feeling and thinking right now.
“I'll try to discuss Duke Evan's idea with princess Tira. Hopefully he doesn't mind Duke Evan's suggestion.” With hesitation Ernest said to Evan who was smiling faintly towards him.
“Why should Tira mind? Is it because like I said you have to pretend to be lovers, when in reality that is the status of your relationship now?” This time, Ernest's eyes really glared upon hearing Evan's words, making for a moment Ernest forget who the person sitting before him was, so he so boldly glared at Evan for being so shocked by her words just now.
