“Let go of her arm and speak. Louella doesn’t like you grabbing her arm.”
Ernst sighed and raised his hands in defeat. Only then did Gerald give him a little space. Louella was looking at Ernst with a startled face.
“……why?”
“What?”
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Ernst took a step closer to Louella. There was ferocity coming from Gerald.
[My brother is with that man. It’s just as I expected. I can’t believe he just showed his identity like that.] White Uroboros whispered in Ernst’s ear.
[My brother, and he’s coveting your place. And he even took away the Louella that deserved to be your girl.]
These were the things that White Uroboros had been imprinting in Ernst’s mind for the past few days. That Logan was obviously coveting the throne. Gerald Logan was taking what he had.
There is no one who could disobey the Crown Prince’s orders. However, Louella’s refusal was due to Gerald’s sabotage. Ernst frowned at the throbbing headache he was experiencing.
Ernst said with an angry face. “Don’t look at me like that. Treat me the same way as before. Pretty and sweet.”
Louella had a face of bewilderment. She was a person whose feelings were fully revealed.
Louella said, clicking her tongue. “That’s impossible. Your Highness has already ruined everything. I’ve already turned down the proposal. Nevertheless, you forced me to come here with the will of the Royal Family.” She furrowed her brows, “Should I be kind to you, Crown Prince?”
“Lady Louella. I am the Crown Prince. The Duchess is not a person who can refuse recklessly, and you know that I’m not a person who should be treated this way. Don’t be rude.” Ernst spoke impatiently.
[Are you going to take her away? Will he give her to you?] The white snake’s rush seemed to paralyze Ernst’s reasoning even more.
Louella sighed. It was filled with annoyance.
“It should be you, who’s being rude, Crown Prince. You’re only forcing what you want, even if I don’t want to. No matter what your position is, you don’t have the right to treat me like this. Rather, it seems that your Highness is ignoring the nobility of the Leander family.”
“Stop.” Gerald hid Louella from the stubborn Ernst.
It didn’t seem like his voice was heard no matter what he said.
Ernst thought to himself. Gerald glared at Ernst with sharp eyes.
“Stop it, Crown Prince.” Gerald’s blue eyes, like the winter sky, were warning Ernst.
Stop there. If you don’t listen, something might happen. A huge black dragon seemed to be seen behind Gerald’s back Ernst laughed. It was about the time when he tried to say threatening words to Gerald.
“Time is running out, Your Grace.” It was Merce who spoke.
Mercé was also filled with hostility towards Ernst, unlike the other day, with whom he was greeted with a smile. Ernst took a step back without realizing it.
“After climbing the scale, this workshop will be meaningless, so it is better to go.” He was convinced that this would end in their victory.
Is there any reason why she would be disqualified?
“No way.” Ernst threw a cold look at Louella and Gerald.
Did you do something to defame the noble lady? Ernst clenched his fist. The white snake’s energy flowed from Ernst.
[Is there a reason why you can’t have her?] The white snake instigated Ernst.
[Take her and lock her up. If you make her yours, there will be no problem. The nobles dare not cross the gates of the Imperial City.] The white snake violated Ernst’s spirit at will.
So that everything he says will sound right. Ernst blinked. Is that so? As the White Snake said, there was no one in the Empire who would go beyond Ernst’s authority. There was no one who could go beyond the Yellow Castle recklessly.
All those Leander and Logan! He thought it wouldn’t be bad to teach Louella what would happen if she ignored Ernst.
[That’s it. Indecisive Ernst. It’s more attractive to take her away than you letting her be taken away after looking stupid. Show the black snake this lesson!] The laughter of the white snake reverberated wildly.
