The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 664

Caspian wouldn't be able to answer to his own soldiers if he were to spare Henry.

Furthermore, he wouldn't be able to answer to all of his fellow comrades who had fallen in battle.

There was still a mobilization session to be held, and sparing the traitors would surely dampen the morale of the soldiers.

Caspian finally replied, "Your Majesty, I believe that we should execute all of the traitors, Henry included. Only then can we send off all of my fellow brothers-in-arms who had fallen in peace!"

The Stewarts, the Archers, as well as the Hudsons, were all horrified.

They felt nothing but despair as they realized Caspian wouldn't even spare his in-laws.

The small glimmer of hope burning within the Archers and the Hudsons were completely extinguished.

Henry turned pale white as he collapsed onto the ground. He realized that he wouldn't be getting out of this alive.

The ups and downs in life were unbearable.

Melinda shouted, "You're too cruel, Caspian! You're a cold-blooded murderer!"

Marilyn added, "His Majesty had already spoken up, yet you still insist on executing Henry. Are you just trying to bring down the Stewarts, Caspian?"

Donald explained, "We may not have the greatest relationship, Caspian. But you shouldn't be enacting revenge like this!"

The Stewarts began to throw insults at Caspian.

Caspian declared, "I have nothing to say to all of you. I've always turned a blind eye to everything you've done. But I will absolutely not forgive Henry for committing treason."

Alicia begged, "But Caspian, Henry isn't such an evil man as you think he is! He had also kept me safe in enemy hands! My brother has a kind soul deep inside. Please, spare him!"

"Of course he would have helped you. You're siblings! But what did he do to Willow? He even assisted the enemy special agents to try and assassinate her! Why would I keep someone like him alive?"

Alicia was left speechless as what Caspian said was true.

Melinda explained, "Lord Caspian, please spare Henry's life for Willow's and our sake! You can just imprison him for his crimes instead."

Marilyn begged, "Lord Caspian, you can lock Henry up for a decade if you'd like. Just please don't kill him."

Caspian remained silent.

He realized he had to stand firm on such matters.

Caspian never wanted to execute Henry if not for the crimes he had committed.

Marilyn turned to Balthazar and begged, "Your Majesty, Henry's our only male heir in the family! Killing him would also mean killing off our entire lineage!

"You could just put Henry in prison for the rest of his life. We only ask that you spare his life!"

She just wanted to keep Henry alive for now, no matter what. She could always reduce Henry's sentence in the future and eventually bail him out of prison.

Carl had been standing behind the Stewarts the entire time, unable to say a thing.

Balthazar replied, "Mrs. Stewart Senior, you should understand that the soldiers who had sacrificed themselves to protect the country had families of their own as well.

"Your grandson's treachery has ended the lineage of so many others. If I were to spare Henry today, how would I answer to the families that had lost their husbands or their sons?"

The Stewarts fell silent as they realized there was no hope left.

Suddenly, Jerry laughed and commented, "You should make your decision soon, Lord Caspian. We still have the mobilization session on schedule!"

Caspian realized that he shouldn't delay any longer. "Willow, I need you to bring your family out of here."

He didn't want Willow and her family to witness the execution as it might be unbearable.

They regretted their actions now that Diatoran had managed to win the war despite being attacked by four different countries at once.

They would have never committed treason if they knew that Caspian was so powerful that he could defeat Robert and Viktor with relative ease.

A single mistake had sealed their fate.

…

Meanwhile, on a hill in Churron, Tom explained, "Madam Lynch, it's already dawn. Let's take the bus to Southlake City as soon as possible."

He wanted to leave earlier but was stopped by Sherry as she insisted on waiting for daybreak.

She explained that the Jessops would not dare to act rashly in broad daylight.

Sherry replied, "Why don't we wait for a while longer? It's still too early for anyone to be on the streets. Let's wait until noon."

Tom was annoyed. "Stop hesitating, Madam Lynch. It's already morning! How much longer do we have to wait?"

He would have left long ago if Sherry hadn't insisted on waiting for daybreak.

Miranda added, "He's right, Madam Lynch. We've already stayed here for far too long. The Jessops may be dangerous, but they probably wouldn't dare to do anything in broad daylight."

Cecilia also chimed in, "Mom, I think Tom and Miranda are right. We should leave."

Sherry reluctantly agreed with the majority. "Okay. Let's go."

She could only nod her head in agreement.

The four of them left the mountain and began to make their way to the bus station.
