"Uncle Joe, tell me what happened to the Gray family during the three years I was away from home."
"Yes, young master, please come with me."
Jonas smiled and nodded, walking ahead of Ryan and leading him toward his office.
The two arrived at Jonas's office. Jonas sat back down at his desk, took out a large stack of documents from his drawer, and began to explain the family's affairs to Ryan.
Ten minutes later, after listening to the detailed report, Ryan smiled helplessly.
"Uncle Qiao, just give a brief overview, mention some important matters."
"You should know what I mean. When did you develop such a perverse sense of humor?"
Jonas smiled and said, "Okay."
Jonas pushed the large stack of documents aside, his smile fading, and said seriously.
"Young Master, before the Master fell into a coma, everything in the Gray family was as usual, and everything was developing in an orderly manner."
"At the same time, because of you, the Gray family has begun to establish relationships with the Elf Forest and the Magic Association, and everything is developing in a positive direction."
"But after the master fell into a coma, the family's development began to stagnate, and even regressed."
"While this was partly due to the family using all their resources to search for the treasure."
"But when even the Pope of the Church of Light failed to revive the family head, some of the smaller families under the Gray family felt that the Gray family was declining and began to look for other powerful families."
“Some families that originally shared some resource locations with the Gray family have kicked the Gray family out.”
At this point, Jonas clearly showed his displeasure.
"If it weren't for the Lord's Lion Knights being sent out to search for treasure, these opportunists and treacherous people would not have been tolerated."
Renn nodded, not thinking it was a bad thing.
“Why are you angry, Uncle Joe? This is a good opportunity to get rid of those opportunists, isn’t it?” Ryan laughed.
"So that these parasites won't leech off the Gray family."
Jonas nodded: "Yes, I've also considered that, which is why I haven't taken action against those families."
After a moment of silence, Ryan asked, "Are there any troublesome families? Give me a list, and I'll pick a few to deal with, so that other forces won't think my Gray family is easy to bully and try to take advantage of us."
Jonas nodded, took out a piece of paper, and wrote several family names on it with a quill pen.
"These families are the most arrogant among all the families, and there are people in these families who are openly insulting the Gray family."
“According to imperial law, we have the right to take action against them. Young master, please do as you please. Leave the cleanup to me afterwards.”
Ryan took the list and glanced at it: "Okay, I understand."
"Uncle Joe, I'll be going now?" Ryan stood up from his chair.
"I haven't had a proper rest these past few days while traveling. I need to get some rest when I get back."
Jonas got up from his chair and followed Ryan to the office door.
"Take care, young master."
Jonas watched as Ryan walked up the stairs, a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
Once Rein returned to his room, he waved his hand and released Eve and a dozen or so of his personal maids from the secret realm.
Eve, Cecily, and the others were overjoyed to see the familiar surroundings and chattered excitedly around Rein.
"You're back!?"
We're back!
The maids strolled around the room, chatting happily, taking in the familiar scenes.
Raine hugged the Cecily-branded body pillow next to him, took off his shoes, lay down on the bed with the pillow, and closed his eyes, inhaling the girlish scent emanating from Cecily's body.
