The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 727 The Royal Scepter

“What do you mean, Dad?” Kelvin asked, confused.

Jerry said, “Now that Caspian was bold enough to disobey the king’s orders, we can use this to rid him of his title as the Diatoranian God of War!”

Kelvin had a realization. He said, “Got it. Caspian had committed a crime

punishable by death when he went against the king’s orders. Besides, the king is the most powerful person in Diatoran.

“Although Caspian is the Diatoranian God of War, he’s just a subordinate under the king!”

“Exactly. I was worried because I couldn’t think of ways to deal with Caspian. But now that he’s disobeyed the king’s orders, we have a legitimate reason to take action against him without arousing doubt,” Jerry said with a chuckle.

Kelvin laughed. “Caspian was way too arrogant this time. He’s always been disdainful to everyone else because he thinks His Majesty treats him with high regard, but he’ll have to pay the price for his arrogance now!”

At this moment, Zane piped up, “Aren’t we getting a bit too excited, Dad? What if Caspian refuses to come back? We have no other methods to make him do so!”

“His Majesty has a royal scepter. When Caspian sees it, he must return,” Jerry said.

Kelvin and Zane understood what he meant immediately. Seeing the royal scepter was the same as seeing Balthazar himself. Caspian had to return, or he would be prosecuted for treason.

Kelvin said, “This is a great idea, Dad! He must come back if we deliver the scepter to him!”

“Exactly. If he dares go against the king’s orders even after that, we can charge. him with the crime of treason!” Zane replied.

“If the royal scepter is used, Caspian must end up dead no matter what. If he returns, we will persecute him.

“If he doesn’t, we’ll cut off his retreat route and deploy our men to work together with the Filrenian troops and eliminate Caspian’s!” Jerry said viciously.

“Let’s deliver the scepter to Caspian in the king’s name, then!” Kelvin said.

Jerry nodded. “Great. We’ll wake His Majesty up now and ask him for the royal
