The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 330 Masked Man

Although Alton was the governor, he had never matched Charles‘ power and authority in New Bay.

He lost many of his men to corruption as Charles slowly but surely stripped all of them away.

He realized he could control New Bay completely once he dealt with Charles.

“I would have conquered all of New Bay if I had another year! You’re just some nobody who couldn’t do anything without Caspian coming to your rescue! You’re nothing more than a coward without any ambitions of your own!” said Charles.

Alton was visibly angry from his comment. “What did you say? Arrest him!”

Several of his men steadily walked up to arrest Charles.

Charles no longer had the will to fight after suffering heavy injuries from his fight with Caspian.

He would soon be met with an equally harsh session of interrogation.

Charles still wanted to make a last stand, but it was already a miracle that he could manage to remain conscious while bearing deep wounds,

Besides, he no longer stood any chance at turning the tide with Caspian and the group of armed soldiers standing before him.

Resisting would truly spell the end of his life.

One of the soldiers handcuffing Charles teased, “Let’s go, God of Gambling!”

It was not every day that you could arrest someone like Charles.

Charles was furious after being disrespected by a mere soldier. “Bastard!”

He felt suffocated and started panting heavily for air.

He shook his head in despair, wondering if the Hoff family’s God of Gambling was no more.

A loud bang suddenly rang out and sent the soldiers flying backward.

Suddenly, a figure clad in all black appeared in the room. He wore a long black robe that covered his entire body and a mask that helped conceal his identity.

Caspian’s calm and collected demeanor had turned sour for the first time tonight.
