Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

After a long time, the Baroness with cloudy eyes raised her head, looking at the man with fear.

"Now there is no one left to preside over the Florence Chamber of Commerce, only your daughter remains.

So, bring her here tomorrow, and I will discuss with her the future direction and ownership of the Florence Chamber of Commerce."

The Baroness was stunned for a moment, then she looked up in shock at the man and said in disbelief:

"That is my daughter!"

Earl Campbell paused, looking at the woman with an inexplicable expression. Was her mind filled with filth? How could she think of everything in such a way?

But then, he remembered seeing Lady Sack during a fleeting moment at the church.

As expected from a girl with Elven blood. If it were an ordinary time, he wouldn’t care. But now, looking at the Baroness, a subtle thought flashed across his mind.

"Sack is already dead. Your daughter has no support within the Chamber of Commerce."

Earl Campbell lightly stroked the woman’s hair below, speaking in a cold voice:

"The Chamber of Commerce has lost its spiritual pillar. Many key figures no longer have hope for its future.

If there is no external intervention, the Florence Chamber of Commerce will quickly be swallowed up. Those wealthy merchants are quite skilled at bullying the weak. Lady Bernard, you don’t want your daughter to be bullied, do you?"

As Earl Campbell stroked her hair, the Baroness showed a docile expression. A struggle flickered in her eyes. After some hesitation, she finally said:

"She has been very sad lately, you... don’t bully her too much."

"Rest assured, the Florence Chamber of Commerce has other uses in my hands. I will not let it fall into others’ hands."

Experience tales at empire

Count Bell solemnly promised, a hidden look of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

However, he didn’t know that many things in this world were not as he thought, completely under his control.

If everything could be controlled, the fall of dynasties would never occur.

...

Inside the Charles estate.

Count Rezhe remained silent, contemplating today’s conversation with Duke Lionheart.

Unconsciously, he recalled the scene of meeting Kael in the castle.

He snorted coldly: As expected, he was an unclean incubus. That natural power to influence others’ minds was disgusting even without malice.

Harry, who was accompanying Count Rezhe in the study, hesitated for a moment and then said: "Father, Kael is a good person. Why do you have such a strong opinion of him?"

Count Rezhe glanced at his son, snorted coldly, and said:

"Harry, remember that Lionheart blood flows in your veins. This bloodline embodies years of blood and tears between our Lionheart family and numerous human enemies.

How many years did it take for the Yibel Federation to rise from a desperate situation, surpassing the Holy Papal State of Brinia, and surpassing other alien nations?

You must understand that the power of Lionheart is controlled by humans. Essentially, it has no connection with the Griffin anymore and will not affect the inheritance of our human bloodline. But other races are different, especially the Abyss."

When mentioning the Abyss, Count Rezhe’s eyes were full of gloom, saying: "Don’t forget how many years it took for the countries on this continent to drive the demons back into the Bottomless Abyss.

Even if Kael can ensure he is not affected by the Abyss, can he guarantee that his descendants will not be affected by the Abyss?

I can accept him becoming a noble if he honestly gives up his territory and returns to the Duchy. The Charles family can support an idler.

If he feels the title is too low and it makes him subject to others’ contempt, I will do my best to create a Viscount for him. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

If anyone dares to criticize him in front of me, I will naturally seek justice for him.

However, all these promises hinge on the fact that he cannot touch the core of power. The purity of the upper-level decision-makers of the Duchy of Inglés must be ensured. Even tolerating a fool like Campbell is acceptable,

because no matter how much he messes around, he still sides with the Duchy, and there is the family head to balance him."

Listening to his father, Harry seemed to understand his father’s perspective on Kael.

"So, father, you don’t hate Kael that much," Harry said in a low voice, "I also find Cousin Kael more comfortable to talk to than other nobles."

"He does have a good face," Count Rezhe’s tone was somewhat strange, and after a moment, he said, "That’s normal, given he still has our Lionheart family blood."

Harry retorted: "Father, be reasonable. Kael’s appearance clearly has little to do with our family."

Rezhe was suddenly enraged, tapping his cane on Harry’s leg, saying:

"Anthony was known as a handsome man in the Royal Capital during his youth. Is there a problem with what I said?"

As he spoke, he fell silent, and when he looked up again, his face had turned exceptionally solemn:

"Harry, Kael is different from the rest. Do you understand what I mean?

I can allow you to interact with him more, but you must always remain vigilant. The Abyss is not an easy foe.

Now his situation is more troublesome than that of a border lord with the qualification to dominate a region. He has already become entangled in the Duchy’s succession battle.
