I feel like the crown prince is behind the murders in order to have an excuse for the knight to still come see him ( ̄へ ̄)
That's what I figured. Uke was druged by murderer but somehow Prince found him before culprit could take uke. Then the prince not knowing uke is drugged invites uke into his bed they have sex uke leaves and because of the drug forgets about what happened and Prince acts like a spoiled ass cause he is hurt and doesn't know about the drug.
yep he's the serial killer. he did the same to louis (made him drunk & drunk / spelled him so that he wouldn't remember what happened) but maetel/crown prince who wore red wig at that moment found him first before the duke had the chance to drag louis. and that's how louis and crown prince had sex where he made louis pregnant ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
i'm not sure if it's still considered as r*pe because from the raw chapters, it looks like it's consensual because louis was all smiley but we can't leave the fact that louis was indeed not in his usual mind(??) because as we know he's being drugged / spelled (i saw this red brooch and it's like glowing) by the duke!
WTF did I just read ? I feel like I need to clean my brain now from all this toxicity (/TДT)/
