The encounter with Clow was just the beginning. Through the hall as wide as a palace, Ryan stood in front of the Duke of Kane's office for a long time, and finally sighed and stretched out his right hand and knocked on the door.

"who?"

A familiar voice of inquiries came from the office, and it was Ryan's father, Duke Kane.

Ryan took a deep breath and said in a calm voice, "It's me, Reinhardt."

After he said that, a brief silence appeared in the office. After a while, awkward snorted "Come in."

"Click"

When Ryan opened the office door, the first thing he saw was his father sitting behind the desk by the window.

Compared to when he left, although he had the financial resources of the Duke's Mansion to maintain it, his father still became a little older. He could already see small wrinkles on his originally smooth face, and his upper lip and chin also had mature beards.

Ryan bowed quietly and said, "Long time no see, Father, are you in good health?"

"Hmph!" Duke Kane said unhappily with his hands crossed his chest and raised his head. "I wasn't angry at last by your son, the Qiao family. What's wrong with your hand?"

Although Duke Kane's tone sounded a little unkind, he still cared about Ryan's hanging left arm at the first time.

"This?" Ryan raised his hand and gestured, then said with a wry smile, "I was injured on duty, but I was just dislocated. I will be cured for ten days and half a month."

Duke Kane shook his head in disappointment, "It's really unconventional. The son of the dignified Duke actually went to work as a guerrilla, which was inappropriate, to do such an inappropriate job as a guerrilla."

"Croval!"

A gentle mature female voice came from the office gate, and Ryan's mother Sally had already arrived at the door and looked at her husband with some complaints.

Seeing Frent behind her still graceful and beautiful mother, Ryan knew that it was the old housekeeper who came over to inform her that the Duchess, who was worried about her son, rushed over immediately.

Ryan smiled and walked up to Sally and hugged her, "Mother, long time no see, you look completely unchanged, you are still so young and beautiful."

Sally gently patted her son's back, and smiled with tears in the corner of her eyes and said, "You child's mouth is still so sweet, are you suffering outside? Is it important to have your left arm? Do you want to go to the church priest to treat it?"

"Okay, OK."

Duke Kane said helplessly, "You mother and son will reminisce about the past later. I have something to confirm with Reinhardt."

"Furent, go and call Miss Witch. I have something to discuss with her."

"Haha." A pleasant chuckle came from the gate, "Don't bother the old housekeeper, Duke Kane, I happen to have something to report to you. Please forgive me if I come uninvited."

A woman wearing a gorgeous green off-shoulder dress slowly walked in from outside. The length of this evening dress was quite exaggerated, and the hem had been dragged to the ground.

There was a strange big slit from the left thigh of the long skirt, and the snow-white and slender legs were uncovered in front of everyone present.

The beautiful woman with long brown hair and purple pupils had a very gorgeous face. There was also an attractive beauty mole under her left eye. Her temperament revealed a different charm.

With his inner breath, Ryan felt the huge oppression from the other person's body, and looked at the mature beauty who walked in with a serious and confusion.

"The Singer of the Celestial Singer-Vita Clottied? The Witch?"

Ryan was obviously a little confused at this time. His impression of the lazy woman in front of him was still at the famous artist who was famous in the Imperial Capital Opera House.

But when I heard the witch lady mentioned by my father just now... it was obvious that this Cangzhi Songji's identity was not simple.

"Um?"

Weita Clottied's pair of bright purple eyes with mysterious feeling glanced around the room, bowed gracefully to Sally and said, "I didn't expect the Duchess is here too. It seems that I was not the time to come."

Then her curious and slightly aggressive eyes turned to Ryan, "This handsome guy is..."

Duke Kane's expression returned to seriousness, and he waved to Sally and said, "Sally, you step down first. I have something to discuss with Miss Witch and Reinhardt."

Sally politely greeted Weita, finally hugged Ryan and left the office with Frent.

"Click"

After the door closed, Duke Kane reached out to introduce Ryan to Weita, "This is my son who ran away from home. Miss Witch, can he use it?"

Ryan twitched, ‘What is this misunderstood saying…what does it mean to be useful?’

"Um……"

Weita held her chin with her right hand and turned around Ryan several times with interest. Her eyes that seemed to emit a faint light made Ryan feel uncomfortable.

After a while, Weita's mouth curled up a surprise arc. "It's really surprising. As Mr. Kane said, your son has rarely experienced a different generation of inheritance. His bloodline is even more pure than the descendants of Emperor Delekels's generation."

"Hahaha!"

Duke Kane laughed happily, "Our Kane clan inherited the bloodline of the orthodox emperor Otrus. The illegitimate prince of Delekels is indeed far inferior to us in terms of bloodline purity!"

Seeing his father's pride, Ryan covered his forehead helplessly and asked, "Father, please stop at the right time. What do you want to do if you keep me? What's going on with Miss Clottied, who you call the witch?"

After all, Duke Kane is a leader of a nobleman who has been well-educated since childhood. Soon he restrained his emotions and returned to his usual grace and calmness. "Before this, I want to confirm with you again, do you really don't want to inherit the mission of the family?"

"Once you succeed, you can even become the emperor of the Herrebonian Empire in the future and control the most powerful country in the Western Continent with your own hands."

Ryan sneered, shrugged and said, "Father, are you still talking about this kind of sleep until now?"

"Although Ereponia is not very hard-working under the governance of Yukent III, at least in the overall situation, it remains stable."

"Will you consider this if you launch a coup? Will the empire be displaced and how much national strength will decline? Will the Kalwad Republic, which is always eyeing us, sit idly by?"

"Shortsighted!"

Duke Kane shouted angrily, "You don't know anything at all! Do you think that many disasters that have happened in the empire for so long have really been natural disasters?"

"And can't you see the suppression and weakening of the nobles in recent years, Gillias Osborne, a civilian prime minister, in recent years? Do you have to wait until we transform into a false democracy like the republic next door before we fight back?"

"Hey..." Ryan sighed and said, "Father, I don't want to argue with you about these national affairs. In short, I'm not interested in your plan. I hope you can do it well. I don't want to stand opposite you one day in the future."
