The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 812 Trying to Stay Afloat

The two villagers who had come to expose the secrets they knew were locked up here in the chamber. Their bodies were littered with wounds and covered in blood. They were staring at Jethro intently.

Under normal circumstances, Jethro would’ve been fine with that. But now, he found them to be terrifying.

One of the villagers said viciously, “Jethro Roman, you bastard! Are you hiding here because someone else is after you?”

Jethro was enraged by his words. He did not want these men to continue their loud spiel as he would be done for if he was discovered.

“I didn’t expect the two of you to still be alive. Perhaps I can do this–I can kill you both now so that you won’t have to suffer from all that pain.” Jethro picked up a piece of iron that was red after being heated up. He planned to kill the two

men.

The other villager said hurriedly, “Don’t come over here! What are you doing? I’ll scream for help, believe it or not!”

They had never given up on their survival. It seemed that Jethro had encountered a serious problem, and it proved to be a great opportunity for them.

Jethro said viciously, “I can kill the two of you now!”

Right at this moment, they heard someone knock on the door. Jethro’s

expression darkened as he whispered threateningly, “You’d better be obedient, or I’ll kill you two!”

The villagers dared not act rashly. They were afraid of angering Jethro, but at the same time, they hoped that the people outside would break in and save them.

“Stop knocking. This room has been abandoned for a long time, and it’s been empty for as long,” one of the guards said.

Another replied, “Abandoned? But this lock is new! Perhaps there are some treasures inside?”

“How naive of you. How could there still be treasures in this run–down place? The guards have run away long ago. They’d never leave anything valuable here!”

“I think something is wrong with this place. This lock is new, which means they’re definitely hiding something here.”
