What do you mean by that, Lord Caspian?” Benjamin asked in bemusement.

Why was Caspian speaking in defense of Balthazar now?

“The King is seeing this matter from a different perspective from ours. If we start a war now and are able to defeat these four countries, Diatoran will become a significant entity internationally.

“His Majesty wants Diatoran to become stronger, but a huge price must be paid to achieve that. Diatoran has been laying low and enduring hardship for a long time before we finally emerged as a formidable entity.

His Majesty has waited for this day for a long time. We also finally succeeded in developing the hurricane missiles. Of course His Majesty will want to seize this opportunity to exhibit the power our country possesses!

“Exactly! What if he wants you to give up your authority over the army? What should you do then? You should be more careful, Lord Caspian,” John said.

“Don’t worry. He’ll never do that,” Caspian said confidently.

“We believe in him, but we can’t stop others from whispering about you behind your back!” Benjamin said.
