Yawen walked up to Fred and his mother with his head down and nodded: "Yes, Father and Mother."

Looking at his father, who was still weak after waking up, Yawen couldn't help but shed tears again.

"Father, it's so good that you've woken up. Otherwise... I really don't know how I would face Mother and my younger brother."

Ferde snorted: "Alright, wipe your tears. The lion of the Grey family can bleed but not cry."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ford felt a terrifying gaze directed at him. Seeing Lyra's murderous look out of the corner of his eye, Ford quickly changed his words.

"Ahem... Alright, let's not dwell on the past, let it go."

"Did you come to see me and Leila for something else?"

Yawen took a deep breath, wiped away the tears on his face, and nodded.

"Yes, Father. My brother asked me to inform you that the entire Lion Knights have returned to the Gray family today."

"I hope you will temporarily hand over control of the Lion Knights to him."

Upon hearing this, Fred breathed a sigh of relief. If Yavin said so, it seemed that his old subordinates who had been collecting restoration treasures all over the continent for him had not suffered any losses.

He took out the family head token from the magical device, handed it to Yawen, and asked.

"Is that kid Renn going to make a move against those families?"

Yesterday, during his break, Jonas briefly recounted to Fred the major events that had occurred in the Gray family over the past six months.

Therefore, he was naturally aware of the news that Rennes was about to take action against those major families.

Yawen carefully accepted the family head token handed to him by his father and nodded.

"Yes, although I don't know the exact time when my brother will make his move, I think it will be in the next few days."

"Now that we have the help of your Lion Knights, Father, I am confident that I will be able to wipe out the Gray family, which did not take you seriously while you were unconscious."

Ford nodded: "Yes, I'll wait for your good news. Go and take the token to Renn. Don't delay his plans."

Yawen put the token into his magic device and bowed to his father and mother.

"Yes, Father, Mother, Yawen takes his leave."

After Yavin pushed the door open and left, Leila also got up from Fred's bed and said.

"Alright, I'm leaving now. You get some rest, and if you need anything, just let the person at the door know."

"Don't forget to absorb the treasures your son has given you."

Ford nodded: "Yes, don't worry, I'll recover as soon as possible."

After saying that, Ford reached out and took the jade box from the bedside table to his lap, took out the treasures inside and began to absorb them.

...

Having obtained the patriarch's token, Renn now possesses the authority to mobilize the Lion Knights and the Golden Lion Knights.

With the addition of the Crown Guard Knights, Renn's current strength is enough to annihilate any earl family within half an hour.

Rein took out the white paper with the names of several major families written on it from Jonas's back in the magical artifact.

On the blank sheet of paper, Jonas wrote down four major families.

They are: the Quinn family, the Zeke family, the Becker family, and the Payton family.

The Quinn and Grey families are sworn enemies, and their relationship is extremely hostile.

After Fred advanced to the seventh rank, he suppressed the Quinn family in many ways, reducing the Quinn family's power by more than half.

If the Quinn family hadn't paid a heavy price to form an alliance with several other major marquesses, the Quinn family would likely have been wiped out little by little by the Grey family.

But after Fred fell into a coma, the Quinn family began to run rampant again.

Assassinating members of the Gray family's business guild, seizing the Gray family's mines, and targeting Gray family members at the Imperial Royal Academy, among other things.

The Zeke family and the Becker family are the 'traitors' of the Gray family.

These two families were originally affiliated with the Grey family, but after Ferde fell into a coma, he openly announced his separation from the Grey family.

They also seized one-tenth of the Gray family's assets through various dirty tricks, including the Chamber of Commerce, grain, iron mines, treasures, and so on.

The methods are despicable!

The Peyton family was the first noble family near the royal city to take advantage of the Grey family.

It was because of the Peyton family's lead that other families began to gradually encroach on the Grey family's territory.

During this period, the Peyton family became increasingly arrogant, with some family members even extending their reach to Renn's business: Dream Pavilion.

For the past six months, the Payton family has taken a huge bite out of the Gray family.

It's time for reckoning.
