The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 704

"Why the sudden decision to assassinate the King of Filren, Lord Caspian?" Macy asked.

"Cut off the head of the snake and the body will die. Only by doing so can we minimize our losses," Caspian replied. "You're the most suitable person for this mission."

"We have plenty of skilled individuals in Diatoran. Am I the only one who can carry out such an important task?" Macy said with a hint of pride.

"Don't get ahead of yourself. There are people more capable than you, of course—like Laina. She's the best at assassination," Caspian said.

"Then why don't you send Laina? Why me?" Macy didn't like hearing that Laina was more capable than her.

"Because she has a more difficult mission," Caspian replied.

"What? She has a mission too?" Macy asked.

"Yes, her mission is to assassinate the King of Estrya," Caspian said.

"Lord Caspian, are you planning to carry out two operations simultaneously?" Macy asked in surprise.

"Yes, this operation is highly confidential. We won't launch a military campaign but execute a beheading operation." Caspian nodded.

"But Estrya is just a small country. Isn't Filren more difficult to deal with?" Macy said, displeased.

"Although Estrya is small, there's a vast ocean between Diatoran and Estrya. It'll be difficult to return after a successful assassination. You're going to assassinate the King of Filren. Even if something goes wrong, I can immediately send troops to rescue you," Caspian explained.

"Both of these missions are not simple." Macy sighed.

"I hope you'll be cautious and complete this mission well. Remember, this mission is top secret. Don't disclose it to anyone," Caspian said.

"Do you think I'm still a child, Lord Caspian? Of course, I'll keep it a secret." Macy nodded.

"The beheading operation needs careful planning. Let's return to Southlake City first. We'll call Laina over and discuss the plan," Caspian ordered.

"Roger."

Macy and some armored soldiers escorted Caspian to the airport to return to Southlake City.

Upon arriving in Southlake City, Caspian went straight to the South Aridlands War Zone and summoned Laina.

When Laina saw only Caspian and Macy In the command center, she knew that Caspian must have something extremely confidential to discuss with her.

"Lord Caspian, why did you call me over in such a hurry? What's the matter?" Laina asked.

"I need you to carry out a very important mission," Caspian replied solemnly.

"What is it, Lord Caspian? Whatever the mission, I'll give it my all," Laina said.

"I want you to go to Estrya and assassinate their king," Caspian stated without beating about the bush.

"What? That's so sudden!" Laina was shocked. She couldn't believe that Caspian would assign such a dangerous mission to her.

"What's wrong? Do you have a problem with that?" Caspian asked.

"No, it's just too sudden. I haven't heard you mention it before," Laina said.

"This plan was just finalized after my meeting with His Majesty. It was unanimously decided that we won't launch a military campaign but instead execute a beheading operation.
