But that's wrong. The Black Witch got linked to Kazumi, who was going to kill Ange.

But what can Yasu do? The only stories she wrote were EP1-2 and those were written before the conference. It also happens in the stories she wrote no one tried to solve the epitaph. So, she did as she had planned. She was pretty much pulling an "And then there were none".

She only ended up that way after getting to know the truth about her parentage, but mainly after learning of her physical injury.

If Rudolf and Kyrie don't have any kids to show, it's very possible that Kinzo could decide they don't get ANYTHING. Sure, he's PROBABLY dead, but Kyrie's not stupid enough to put all her eggs in one basket.
Battler wasn't in Lion's world, though. And the only difference in that world, in terms of family headship, was that Lion was the next in line to become the head of the family and not Krauss. But other than that, Kinzo was still old and in his last days and the parents still needed money like crazy. Not to mention that, as we saw, the parents weren't okay with the idea of Lion becoming the new head.
