The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 729 Occupying the Capital

“That’s impossible! His Majesty will never change his mind just because of such an insignificant incident,” Caspian said.

Jerry gave a perfunctory reply, saying, “I really don’t know why His Majesty asked you to retreat, Lord Caspian.”

Caspian said, “Where’s Lyndon? Have him take the call.”

He already sensed that something was amiss. Even if Balthazar was asleep, it shouldn’t be Jerry who took the call in his place.

Jerry answered, “Mr. Gorp was heavily injured and is currently undergoing treatment. His Majesty ordered me to watch over the residence. That’s why I was the one who took this call.”

“I know you’ve always been at odds with me, Jerry. If I ever learn that you kept His Majesty from taking this call on purpose, I’ll ensure you get your due punishment!” Caspian said coldly.

“We’re both working for the king, Lord Caspian. Aren’t you accusing me of something I haven’t done now?

“His Majesty really didn’t get enough rest last night. That wasn’t a lie. I can’t wake him up all of a sudden, can I?”

Jerry could control Balthazar now, yet he was still wary of Caspian.

Caspian could command an army with a million soldiers. If he ended up pissing Caspian off, he would end up dead after Caspian arrived in Dhord City.

“Please tell His Majesty to call me immediately after he wakes up,” Caspian said before ending the call.

Macy asked, “Should we continue taking down the capital, Lord Caspian?”

“Of course! Take your Phoenix Vanguard with you and make it quick. We must take down the capital of Filren!”

If Balthazar himself hadn’t ordered him verbally to do so, Caspian would never

retreat.

Macy nodded. “Yes, Lord Caspian!”

She was Caspian’s‘ subordinate, so naturally, she would obey Caspian’s orders. Then, she and Phoenix Vanguard entered the fray.
