Ever since the steward Griffin was banished from Fort William, Brad knew less and less about the castle, which had become an independent kingdom, and he didn't know what was going on, which made him feel uneasy.

However, Master Ron's actions in Haynes City all fell on his eyes, as long as Brad wanted, he could spy on any person in Haynes, Master Ron snagged a group of poor children, or the kind with mediocre qualifications, which made Brad breathe a sigh of relief, contempt, and amusement, if Charlie planned to use a few slum children against the Pavel family, then he was really naïve!

Despite this, Brad is still a little jealous of Master Ron, who has been deeply involved in Haynes City for many years, and worships under the Archmage Mr. Randolph, and has obtained some sensational academic achievements in herbalism in recent years, won the praise of the royal family, and has attracted the attention of the world, and has a lot of influence on some magical forces, so Brad is unwilling to offend this celebrity in the wizarding world too much.

Of course, even if Master Ron is there today, Brad has prepared some coping strategies.

Ron values his personal reputation, he is interfering in the family affairs of the Pavel family by standing up for Charlie, obviously has no position, once it spreads, it is easy to be suspected of coveting the apprentice's property, this crime alone is enough to make him disgraced, lose face, and cannot raise his head in the imperial magical world. However, Brad was afraid that Ron would show his face and support Charlie, which would give him a headache, but this possibility is very small.

Now, Brad doesn't have to worry about this problem, I don't know if Charlie is stupid himself, or Master Ron can't lose face, Master Ron didn't come with Charlie today, I have to say that this is the biggest mistake Charlie has made, and he will definitely regret this decision.

In contrast, Brad faced the Marquis of Costa much easier, after all, he still held the position of the Silver Knights, nominally controlled by himself, and the Costa family was an upstart, with no family background, and he himself was not a magician, without the influence of Master Ron, and his personal strength was limited, at least Brad could find several people who could match him.

Brad turned his head to look at Marquis Costa and said with a smile: "Lord Gosta, today the Pavel family has a very important internal meeting to decide their own affairs, I really don't have time to entertain you, if there is nothing to do, you can go back first! I will visit you another day!"

Brad put Gosta aside with a word.

The Marquis of Costa smiled heartily and said: "I am the brother of Archduke Thomas, the battlefield commander of the Silver Knights, and half of my own people, besides, Archduke Thomas told me when he left, take care of his son, today Charlie is home, I will accompany him to listen to this family meeting!"

Ethan snorted lightly and said, "This is a meeting of the Pavel family, what qualifications do you have as a foreign surname to attend?"

Gosta smiled and said, "Then you drive me away!

Gosta completely fell to Charlie in Brad's expectation, he knew that he couldn't hide the matter of secretly forming the Knights of the Dark Edge from the number two of the Silver Knights, and he also knew the relationship between Gosta and Thomas, if Thomas left any tricks in the family, it would definitely be implemented by Gosta, so Brad was fully prepared for this situation.

A little temptation today proves this conjecture, Brad wants to solve the problem once and for all, so he did not make a fuss about the "unreasonable" request of Gosta, and he wants to completely settle these two people today.

"Charlie! Charlie, you are really hopeless!" Aiden sneered and said: "For this bit of family property, not only trapping yourself, but also trapping all the people who help you, today your aunt is angry and spit blood in order to help you fight for a little property, and she has fainted, if she dies because of this incident, you will kill another person!"

Although Aiden also covets the family property, he misses a little bit of brotherhood and sisterhood, compared to the ruthlessness of Brad and Ethan, he has a little bit of humanity in him, of course, this bit of human mercy will not be given to Charlie, he has the same attitude towards Charlie as everyone else, and he hates it deeply.

Hearing this, Charlie was shocked, his eyes wandered in the crowd, and in a blink of an eye, he looked at a girl like a little white flower in the crowd, and from her beautiful face, Aunt Caitlin could vaguely see the demeanor of her youth.

An image came to mind: a little girl with yellow hair and a runny nose always followed her, and did not speak, like a little tail.

Abby, Charlie's cousin.

Charlie recognized her, and from her complicated gaze, Charlie read a lot of emotions, anger, loneliness, complaint, alienation, and a little curiosity.

Charlie asked, "Abby, where is Auntie?"

Abby hesitated for a moment, then looked behind her, and a slave pushed out the middle-aged woman curled up in a wheelchair.

Seeing this situation, Charlie felt a faint pain in his heart, and he didn't care about the consequences, there was an extra emerald green branch in his right hand, the young branch of the tree of life, which could add a lot of natural affinity to the staff, and the next moment the glow-green light flickered in the palm of his hand, and the breath contained this sudden vitality, so that there was some abnormality under Charlie's feet, and a touch of green was revealed between the gaps in the originally smooth floor tiles, and the light green moss seemed to have been stimulated by something, growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon a small piece of green space was laid out under Charlie's feet.

In the blink of an eye, the luminescent green light fell on Caitlin who had fallen into a deep sleep, splitting in two.

The oily green light quickly penetrated the skin, and the dry and old skin slowly revealed some moisturization, the cracks gradually converged, and the skin color changed from dark yellow to light yellow, and then revealed a pink;

Light green light with natural particles swirled around the surface of her body, lingering, humming and constantly replenishing her vitality.

Those were two sixth-order natural spells, "Natural Healing" and "Rejuvenation Technique", which were activated by the magic furnace and the twigs of the Tree of Life, and had the healing effect of seventh-order spells.

Compared with divine magic, the effect of natural spells to dispel negative energy is not so powerful, but it can give the receptor full vitality, and it has a good recovery effect on people who are critically ill or dying.

Under the effect of the two spells, Caitlin's bloodless face regained a little ruddy, and her breathing gradually became smooth and powerful, and she had a feeling of recovering from a serious illness, and the changes before and after made people happy.

Actually, this effect is not an exaggeration, I think Charlie was treated by the seventh-order light magic holy light infusion for the first time, broken bones and bones, dry bones and raw flesh, and there are also some amazing effects, although natural healing and rejuvenation are two sixth-order spells, but they have also been promoted to the seventh order, and the healing effect is of course quite remarkable, and it has added enough vitality to the weakened Caitlin in one breath.

In the secular world, generally only the bishop of the cathedral has the ability to release the seventh-order divine arts, and there are no such high-level priests in Haynes City. At the same time, among the 100 archmages, there are very few archmages who can release sixth-order healing spells, and this kind of non-offensive spells are usually not the first choice of archmages, the market is small, and coupled with the deliberate control of the arcane ring, there are very few high-level healing spells circulating in the secular world.

Therefore, although Caitlin is rich, she cannot enjoy the treatment of high-level magic or high-level magic, and can only rely on potions to maintain her life, and the first time she was treated by Charlie had such an amazing effect.

Abby squatted down beside her mother in surprise and cried tears of joy when she looked at her changes.

Ethan and Brad exchanged a grim look and a look of jealousy, although they didn't understand magic, they could also see the power of these two healing spells, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Brad muttered: "The family council doesn't need to be opened, you two are not qualified to enter the council hall, there is no suspense about my appointment as the patriarch of the Pavel family, now that all the elders are here, I make a temporary proposal:

Begin to deprive Charlie of the Pavel surname of the vote, and those who agree please raise your hand, a total of nine votes, more than five votes, and the proposal will be carried out, so let's start now!"

Whew!

At least seven hands were raised, and the uncles looked at Charlie with disgust and shook their heads vigorously.

Brad smiled, spread his hands, and said, "Oh, now you are dead! You will never be welcomed by the Pavels, from this moment on, you are no longer a member of the family, please leave within a minute, otherwise, don't blame me for doing it!"
