He is hunted by others because he has killed a man—his wife's cousin, Rafael de Flores. He doesn't feel remorseful about it; if anything he is content to have successfully done it, comparing to a feeling that a tiger gets after a satisfying meal.

But what was my surprise as the little maid came nearer to the bed with her pretty dancing movement, carrying the axe much as if it had been an over-heavy babe, to see the Duke's Justicer suddenly skip over the far side of the bedstead and stand with his red cloak about him, watching her.
