The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 547

"Your Majesty, this is far too risky! If the traitors play us for fools and hand you over to Filren, the consequences could be unimaginable!" Logan argued vehemently.

"Worrying too much about potential dangers will only waste our time. If you can't devise a plan, at least don't stand in my way!" Balthazar responded, feeling irritated.

He had little patience for indecision, especially in matters of battle where hesitation could lead to defeat.

"Your Majesty, I have a plan that could repel the enemy forces," Logan proposed confidently.

"What is it, Commander? Speak up." Balthazar encouraged.

"We could have the traitors take me to the Filren's forces, pretending to defect. As a commander of Tenby Passage, the sight of me captured would surely convince them of the passage's fall. This way, it'll raise no suspicion," Logan explained his daring strategy.

"Aren't you afraid these traitors might turn against you, putting yourself in grave danger in return?" Balthazar asked, surprised by Logan's boldness.

"If Your Majesty is not afraid, why should I, your subordinate, hesitate to sacrifice myself? You are right. Dwelling on what might go wrong only delays our victory," Logan stated with unwavering resolve.

"But you are wounded. It's not wise to risk yourself further." Balthazar observed, noting Logan's blood-soaked armor.

He was unwilling to let him take more risks.

"I am fine, Your Majesty. Now is the time for me to serve our country. Please grant me this honor," Logan implored.

"Very well! Commander Massey, your willingness to infiltrate enemy ranks moves me. You shall be duly rewarded once we repel the enemy," Balthazar promised.

"Your Majesty, it is my duty to serve our nation. Defending Tenby Passage is my responsibility," Logan humbly replied.

"Commander, your bravery in the face of the enemy and your efforts in the battle against Quinton have already earned you great merit. As you prepare to venture deep into enemy territory, I urge you to take care." Balthazar expressed his concern.

"Rest assured, Your Majesty, I shall return victorious," Logan assured with a confident smile.

At that moment, Lyndon stepped forward. "Your Majesty, while Commander Massey's plan is bold, that does not guarantee that Filren will be completely convinced."

"What do you suggest, Lyndon?" Balthazar inquired.

"Allow me to accompany him. Together, we stand a better chance of convincing them," Lyndon offered.

"Why do you propose this?" Balthazar questioned. He was curious about Lyndon's reasoning.

"Filren knows that both of us were captured by Quinton. If I don't show myself, they might grow suspicious," Lyndon explained.

"So, you wish to join Commander Massey on this mission?" Balthazar clarified.

"Exactly. Only by doing so can we fully convince Filren's forces, catching them entirely off guard," Lyndon elaborated.

"Alright, Lyndon, take care. Once the battle is over, I will assist you in rebuilding the army." Balthazar consented with a nod.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. We've got this under control," Lyndon responded confidently.

Balthazar then addressed Quinton's vast army, saying, "All of you claim to be the brave sons of Diatoran who are seeking redemption. Well, your chance has arrived.

"Escort Commanders Massey and Lyndon on a mission of feigned betrayal. When the time's right, we'll catch the enemy off guard and strike when they least expect it!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" the vast army responded in unison.

"This operation must be under the command of Commanders Massey and Lyndon!" Balthazar instructed.

"Yes!" the army roared with their spirits lifted.

Logan and Lyndon, pretending to be captives, followed Quinton's men toward Tenby Passage.

Caspian respected Logan's willingness to risk his life despite his injuries, although he was unfamiliar with him.

He was a man deserving of respect regardless of whether Logan was his father.
