The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 544 Decapitating the Foe’s Commander

Caspian sensed a shift in the morale of the men around him and seized the moment to assert his influence.

“As soldiers, your priority is to obey orders, and while you serve under Quinton, you must follow his command. But with the King and myself, Caspian, standing before you, you have a choice to abandon the shadows for the light!

“As the Diatoranian God of War, I declare Quinton stripped of his rank. From this moment, he’s no longer a high-ranking officer but a traitor, guilty of the most heinous crimes!”

In a complete panic, Quinton, who had once thought his 200-thousand-strong army invincible against Caspian, realized he had underestimated his opponent’s strategy.

“Do not let Caspian bewitch you!” Quinton roared in fury. “I am your commander, and your loyalty lies with me. Defy me, and you die!”

Intimidated by Quinton’s rage, his men fell silent. No one dared to oppose him. Despite the unrest, Quinton’s loyalists hesitated to act.

Quinton noticed the unease and continued, “Our nation teeters on the brink of destruction, surrounded by enemies. You’ll face death without my leadership and our alliance with the Filren.”

Caspian countered, “Your duty is to defend our homeland, even if it means death. in battle. To turn a traitor is to bear an eternal mark of shame. It’s not too late to redeem yourselves.”

Seizing the opportunity, Balthazar added, “Brave warriors of Diatoran, I, your King, assure you that I will absolve you of your past actions once you renounce your betrayal.”

These words stirred the rebels once more, causing Quinton to descend further into desperation.

“Silence! Do you truly believe the King will forgive your treason? You have no choice but to stay with me or face death by my hand before the King and Caspian even have a chance to spare you!”

The rebels wavered, torn between their actions under Quinton and the promises of Caspian and Balthazar.

The fear of betrayal and the prospect of death loomed large.

“Why hesitate?” Caspian’s voice boomed. “Balthazar himself has offered. forgiveness. As the Diatoranian God of War, I vow to spare your lives if you but turn back.”

Despite his confidence in defeating Quinton, Caspian knew the stark difference in their forces’ sizes meant a battle would lead to many unnecessary deaths, not to mention the risk to Balthazar’s safety.
