Suddenly Nobles

Declan, Beckett, and Their Thought

Day by day passed. Behind the dense willow foliage, a flash of light burst in on Eve's face which looked up blankly. What is this, he suddenly misses mama, Garlein, as well as the rest of the citizens in Clingeer. The face of his teacher who used to teach in subjects that he often skipped was suddenly also filled his mind. Damn it, Eve can't forget them!

"Huh, don't keep quiet!"

Without guilt, Ethan hits Eve's forehead, which was bowed in lethargy. Feeling the pain lodged in his forehead, Eve suddenly rose up. Examine the pain center that Ethan gave while staring at the vicious culprit.

"Damn Ethan! Just a day can you stop bothering me?!"

Without listening to Ethan's elbow, Eve tried to pursue her might to give more in return to her ungodly sister. It's good to play banging, he's sad, you know!

Seeing the ridiculous interaction between his sister and brother, Beckett let out a laugh. The book of philosophy he had been holding since had been released among the green grasses he was also sitting on. "Hey, look at our sister. The anger is adorable, very entertaining. Maybe if one day I have to get married, maybe I will look for a woman who looks like our little sister so that the rest of my life is not boring," he said cheerfully.

Declan sat not far from him and let go of the attention of his reading book. Today for the sake of seeing Eve's smile back —because previously disappointed by Margaret's refusal to return to Lumiere's castle— the three of them willingly invite the youngest Lumiere to study in the open with a beautiful view more beautiful than Clingeer.

Tens or even hundreds of willow trees are planted neatly along the hills. Below there, the beauty of the city of Carringtown which displays a dense and crowded atmosphere can be enjoyed from afar even without using any tools such as binoculars. Maybe if you come to the hill at night, the scenery presented will feel more beautiful with flickering lights in every house and shop.

"Don't expect to get a woman like Eve," Declan comments in her signature tone of voice; flat. "Women are weird like that, where there might be two of them."

Beckett laughed again. "I don't know if your words were praise or insult." His two neutrals are still trailing wherever Eve runs after Ethan. "After returning from Clingeer a few days ago, Eve was always moody. Thank goodness he's back to what he was. His attitude like that had made me think of persuading His Grace to release Eve from her life as a noble. He has the right to choose between living here or being back with the duchess in his old village."

"Your request will not solve the problem, it will have a greater impact on the good relations between Sasania and Brodsway," Declan replied rationally, "just consider one person to sacrifice for the survival of one country. It's a noble duty."

"You mean, Eve should be the victim, right?" Beckett chuckles, irony. "Why did he do that? All this time he was raised like a loose bird, then forever he should be like that. Another case if he was raised like a peacock. Treasure, desire, luxury, and everything for him. It is only natural that the peacock pays for all that is given to him with the freedom of his life. But what about Eve?" Face darkens. "Eve was born a beautiful peacock, but was raised like a loose bird. If he is finally forced to pay for all the comforts of his life by a political marriage, then tell me. Which comfortable life did he need to pay for while all this time he was staying mediocre in Clingeer?!"

Declan.

"Born as a member of the Lumiere family is bad luck to Eve." Beckett stood up, patting his slightly dirty ass from the dust. "The criticism of your brother; you think too much about the welfare of Sasania which from the beginning was borne by His Majesty the King. Your attitude like this unknowingly disregards the welfare of those closest to you. Eve deserves to be happy for her own choices. Even if you're her sibling, I wouldn't hesitate to fight you if it had anything to do with Eve," she said seriously and left Declan. The man decides to chase after Ethan and Eve who are huffing while sitting leaning against a tree that is quite far from them.

Declan was pensive, what was wrong with his attitude?

...----------------...

A super large room with giant decorative lights hanging on the ceiling certainly makes anyone in the place amazed. The same with Declan. The flat man walked with wide steps while occasionally asking some important things related to his work to Rai, the personal assistant as well as his right hand.

"After this there was a council meeting with General Nicholas and Prince Lucas. You're asked to be in the meeting room."

Declan nodded. "By the way, is it true that the Crown Prince left Sasania? Long time off duty, so please understand my question which is too late."

"No problem, My Lord." Rai always walked three steps behind his master. "The news is still ongoing, it can be yes and it can also not. There has been no official announcement from His Majesty regarding his successor. If you want to know more details, I suggest asking General Nicholas."

"Ah, Lord Lumiero is ready."

Long live. The person they had just talked about was already standing on standby in front of the meeting room complete with a sword draped around his waist. General Nicholas threw a thin smile as a form of formality.

"Is the Crown Prince inside?" korek Declan seemed to have no idea what was happening.

"For a while he couldn't come here" he replied lightly, "so some time ahead Prince Lucas himself will guide us."

Declan nodded briefly. It's no secret that Prince Lucas has a much more watered-down and intelligent brain than the Crown Prince. Maybe that's why the Crown Prince ran away from his responsibilities, feeling inferior to the genius of the younger brother? Huh, no one knows. What is clear is that Prince Lucas' intelligence is no nonsense, as nearly one-third of the secret military headquarters in Sasania are built on his deep thinking.

Random things suddenly flashed through Declan's mind. If Prince Lucas were to eventually rebel, would Sasania be destroyed so easily? Remembering all the most secret things in government is programmed only outside the head of the prince. Even among the other princes, he was the one who understood politics and the system most in Sasania.

Ah, I hope that never happens. Yes, the prince loved his people so much that this bad thought must have been impossible.

"The meeting this time will discuss the thorny problem of the western border of Sassania that wants to be controlled by the neighboring country" said General Nicholas while delivering Declan inside. Go hand in hand and put aside personal feelings of hostility to each other. They're really professionals. "The number of military forces is decreasing. Therefore, yesterday afternoon His Majesty the King specifically asked me to ask your opinion; what if we face the western forces with the help of the Nyx Knights?"

"Is that to the extent that we need help from the Nyx Knights of unknown origin?" Declan frowned, disagreeing. "Aren't the knights from the kingdom alone enough?"

"If you look at the large number of enemies, our knights are not enough. After all the quality of this Nyx Knight was second to none. Never in doubt" replied General Nicholas seriously. "If their leader is unknown, but as long as they are loyal to the royal family, it is not a big deal."

"The "Knight of Nyx has always been a mystery. What things do they keep tight until no one knows how things are going in them." Declan thought hard.

"So how, My Lord?" general Nicholas asked after being stuck in silence for a while. "Do you think we need to enlist the help of the Nyx Knights again, or fight with the troops ourselves?"

Declan's blue beads were whizzing in all directions. Trying to think as wisely as possible so that the casualties of the Sasanian army could be suppressed and the border conflict immediately resolved.

"Send a letter to the Nyx Knight. We need their help, as soon as possible" Declan replied. Indefectible.

The halohaa!

Declan's the same Beckett in a row to set Eve's future straight. If you think the same? Declan who attaches importance to the country or Beckett who attaches importance to the happiness of his family members? comments under e
