The Witcher: Son of the Planes.

The Cavendish family - the council chamber.

"Brother, how about this war? How long will it last?" asked Terry Cavendish (Elizabeth Cavendish August's father).

"I think they won't fight anymore. In the short term, they will focus on recuperation. But judging from your majesty's intentions, it won't be long before they launch a war."

"It's time to take a break. You've been working hard for more than a year, and your health has aged a lot. The family still depends on you." Terry said with concern.

"Well, if it weren't for Joseph (Joseph Cavendish, Johnson's only son) who was idle all day long, I wouldn't have to work so hard. The family would be handed over to the young people sooner or later. I am usually busy with official duties and neglect to discipline Joseph. Terry, you have to pay more attention to the family affairs."

"Brother, I know."

"How's your son-in-law?" Johnson asked casually.

"It's been three months, and they haven't even sent me a letter. But there's no war going on over there, so it should be safe."

"There are only you and me in our generation, and only Joseph and Lilibet in the next generation. Sigh, our Cavendish family is so scarce in terms of offspring. Joseph, that brat, has been fooling around all day, and he has brought shame to the Cavendish family. None of the noble ladies in the capital are interested in him. I think we should let him get married as soon as the war is over. No matter what, we must leave offspring for the family."

"Brother, isn't this a bit too hasty?" Terry said.

"Why rush? Lilibet's two children are already in their teens. How long will Joseph continue to fool around? I have decided that this time I will tie him up and take him to the wedding."

The capital of the kingdom, Uxu City - Kulis Street

In the center of Kulis Street stands the largest library in the principality - the Sernarin National Library. Strangely, opposite the library stands the largest den of gold-spending in the principality - the Fina Garden.

Fina Garden is decorated with extreme luxury, and it has everything. No matter what kind of scarce goods (including male and female slaves from various countries), they can be found here, provided that the necessary Nomisma (gold coins of the Principality of Denton) are prepared. It is not an exaggeration to say that this place makes a fortune every day, but it is rare to hear of anyone making trouble here. It is said that this is the property of Marquis Vic Wales (the leader of the Flame Legion that invaded the heart of the Principality of Burgundy).

And our Master Joseph is in the Fina Garden at this time, enjoying the massage from the beautiful woman and the fine wine and delicious food.

"Master, the master is back. Let's go back early." said the servant.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Can't you see that you haven't finished the wine yet? Besides, these services have already been paid for. Don't you know how expensive it is here? We'll be back soon. It's okay." Joseph said while lying down.

Joseph was only concerned with having a good time, drinking and carousing, and didn't take the servant's words seriously at all.

"Master, Master, look, isn't that the Master and Earl Terry (Honorary Earl)?"

Joseph saw it and sat up immediately. "Go separately. Don't let the master see you. Even if he sees you, don't say you have seen me."

After twisting and turning in the crowd, Joseph disappeared in a flash.

Seeing that there were family guards guarding the gate, the butler was a little anxious. Although Master Joseph had slipped away, he would be caught by the master sooner or later if he couldn't get out.

Regardless of what the servant was thinking, Joseph was not panicked at all. He walked easily and came to the backyard of Fina's garden with familiarity. There was a door in a relatively hidden position, and there were two garden guards in front of the door.

"Get out of the way and let me pass," said Joseph.

When the garden guard saw that it was his familiar customer, Viscount Joseph (Honorary Viscount), he did not dare to stop him and stepped aside.

Soon, Joseph walked through the door and disappeared.

Selnarin National Library.

The five-story library covers a large area. Books ranging from the General History of the Continent, History of the Founding of the Principality, Detailed Explanation of Plants, Knightly Etiquette, Merlin's Diary and other books to miscellaneous periodicals such as Postpartum Care Techniques for Sows are arranged on the bookshelves on each floor in different categories.

There were many people reading books in the library, and they were very absorbed in their reading. No one noticed a person slipping in from a small door on the side. Only the librarian Brian (a member of the Palace Mage Corps and a senior magician apprentice) glanced at him, but when he saw that it was Joseph, a famous playboy in the principality, he smiled implicitly and said nothing.

Joseph quickly picked up a book called "On the Moral Cultivation of the Nobility" on the bookshelf, sat down and began to read.

……

Johnson and Terry didn't find Joseph, but they saw the housemaid. They called him over to question him. The servant hesitated and didn't explain clearly. But who is Johnson? He is the military minister of the principality. How could he not know the tricks of Fina Garden?

"Let's go to the other side." After saying that, Johnson turned around and walked out of Fina Garden.

Soon, they arrived at the Selnarin Library. As soon as they entered the hall, they saw Brian sitting in a chair reading a book.

"Master, have you seen that brat of mine?" Johnson asked.

"Look, he's reading over there." Brian pointed.

"Hey, that's a good act, Terry. Tell him to go home."

"Okay, brother."

……

Colin was tired of eating black bread and salted fish every day. Although he could occasionally eat the food Nora brought, he always felt that his mouth was empty. He always wanted to go to the forest in the east to see if he could catch a rabbit, a pheasant, or at least some bird eggs.

"With the return of Lord Alex (senior knight squire), people have been moving more frequently in the eastern forest. It is said that it is still very safe during the day. Colin doesn't have time to go there during the day, but if he doesn't go too deep, there shouldn't be any problem at night. Besides, I'm not here for nothing." Colin thought.
