The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 736 A Confusing Decision

“Yes, Lord Caspian! I’ll contact Laina and have her return to the country at once, ” said Sylvia.

That was when Caspian added, “Laina has just assassinated Valorix. This period is crucial for her, so we must find a way to guarantee her safety.”

Nodding, Sylvia answered, “I understand. I’ll arrange everything and ensure that Laina returns to the country in one piece.”

“My biggest concern now is Jerry. He claimed he and some guards rushed over to eradicate the assassins that attacked the king. Even so, I can’t help feeling like something’s off with his story,” Caspian remarked.

“Indeed, if the assassins were already killed, why would the king’s residence’s guards need changing?” Sylvia chimed in.

“Unless… Jerry’s subordinates were the assassins! They killed the guards and threatened the king!” Macy proposed a shocking deduction.

“It’s possible.” Caspian nodded.

Macy paled. “If that’s so, this matter has become more terrifying than we thought.”

“Oh!” Sylvia exclaimed. “So, the king was under Jerry’s control! That explains why His Majesty forced us to withdraw even when we had the advantage and had seized Filren’s capital.”

Caspian said, “Jerry has been plotting this for some time. He deliberately waited until I left with all the soldiers before taking action.”

“Lord Caspian, the king is in danger now that Jerry controls everything in there. We should hurry and gather up the other War Gods to take down Jerry and rescue the king,” Sylvia urged.

“Let’s not rush. These are merely our assumptions, and we don’t have any evidence. We might get accused of treason if we gather the other War Gods now.

“Besides, I no longer have my position and can’t mobilize troops. It’s best to act after we investigate what happened.”

“Yes, Lord Caspian.”

Then, Sylvia changed the topic. “So, do you have any plans after this?”
