The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 729

"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.

Byron was already terrified at this moment. The reinforcements hadn't returned yet, and he felt like the capital would be invaded at any time, so he was already making plans to leave.

…

"Are you really planning to go against the king's orders to the end?" asked the guard who was holding the royal scepter.

"Shut up!" Caspian said coldly. It was now a key moment during the battle, and he refused to retreat. He would return to Dhord City and repent in front of Balthazar himself after taking down Filren.

Byron had also heard word that Balthazar had summoned Caspian with the royal scepter. But he was confused.

Caspian's troops were advancing with high momentum, and the capital was about to be besieged. Why would the King of Diatoran make such a dumb decision and have Caspian retreat?

Byron changed his mind because of that as well. Caspian couldn't go against Balthazar's orders, could he? Maybe Caspian would retreat if the Filrenian troops held on for a while longer.

…

"The royal scepter represents His Majesty himself. Do you really want to disobey him again? You should know the consequences of going against the king's orders, shouldn't you?" the guard said again.

"You're not worthy of chastising me. Do you really think yourself that important?" Caspian roared.

Caspian was stressed as well. He could only order his subordinates to besiege the capital of Filren quickly.

Half an hour later, they finally succeeded in taking down the capital of Filren under Macy's and Sylvia's leaderships. Seeing that the gates were broken down, he ordered immediately, "Charge! Seize the King of Filren!"

News of Caspian occupying the capital of Filren with the armored battalion and Phoenix Vanguard spread like wildfire. Diatoranians were overjoyed to hear that.

Caspian, who went to war alongside his subordinates, had managed to achieve such a great deed only after a few days. His prowess was definitely unmatched!

Other countries, such as Astronia and Vadesia, were also shocked by Caspian's amazing achievements. With this, Caspian's name resounded throughout the world.

When Jerry learned that Caspian had occupied the capital of Filren, thus going against Balthazar's orders, he was so furious he was shaking all over.

"Does Caspian think he can do anything he wants just because he's the Diatoranian God of War? How dare he!"

"Dad, Caspian has disobeyed the king because of his arrogance. We can label him as a traitor. Can we discharge him from the army?" Kelvin asked.

"Discharge him from the army? Are you that stupid? Caspian has a million soldiers under his control. He has the armored battalion and Phoenix Vanguard under him as well. Who can stop him from fighting us to the end?" Jerry said exasperatedly.

Kelvin was stunned, as he hadn't considered that. Not only did Caspian have control over a massive army, but he himself was also a powerful warrior. No one else could harm him.

"If Caspian doesn't return to Dhord City, we can't take his control over the army from him. But he'll surely become our obstacle if he returns to the country!" Kelvin said.

"We can never be at peace so long as Caspian is alive. He'll surely send his army after us if he learns of what we've done. Then, our family will be thrust into irreversible danger." Jerry was worried now as well.

At this moment, Zane said, "I have another plan. Caspian will surely retreat if we carry it out!"

"Tell me about it now!" Jerry said.

"As Caspian has gone against the king's orders, we can seize his family members and use that to force his hand. If he insists on being disobedient, we will execute his family by firing squad!" Zane bit out.
