The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 734 Caspian Got Deposed

“Your Majesty, I-” Caspian wanted to explain himself.

“Caspian, you’ve become so arrogant that you’re not taking me seriously. You even dare to defy me in front of all these higher–ups!

“I’m dismissing you from your post today. From now on, you’re no longer a God of War of Diatoran!” Balthazar barked.

Apart from the Andrews family, everyone was in shock and never would’ve imagined Balthazar would depose Caspian.

“Your Majesty, Lord Caspian is a commendable hero of Diatoran! Yes, he defied your order this once, but it’s not that serious of a crime that warrants this!” One of the higher–ups stepped forward to speak up on Caspian’s behalf.

Another higher–up stepped forward. “Yeah! Your Majesty, Lord Caspian may have disobeyed you, but he was only doing it for the greater good of Diatoran! He wanted to contribute to our Diatoran’s grand cause. That’s all.”

“Don’t bother defending Caspian anymore. He blatantly disobeyed my orders. If I don’t punish him strictly and accordingly, others may disobey my orders, too. What power would I, the king, have when that happens?” Balthazar questioned frostily.

That was when Sylvia spoke. “Hasn’t Lord Caspian withdrawn with his soldiers from battle as you ordered him to?”

“It’s too late. Caspian didn’t withdraw immediately after receiving my orders, which means he defied me. I’m merciful enough for not giving him a death sentence!”

Jerry had always served by Balthazar’s side, so he knew the latter’s behavior and speech well. So, although he made Balthazar say appalling words, they were still reasonable.

Another higher–up spoke up then. “Your Majesty, Lord Caspian has achieved great things during his campaign. Many of our soldiers might be upset if we depose him!”

“Yes, Caspian has emerged victorious, but it’s by pure luck. Given his character, he mustn’t be allowed to lead troops into battle again. Otherwise, things might eventually go south!” Balthazar boomed.

The higher–ups no longer dared to speak up for Caspian. They shut their lips
