The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 730

"Sounds like a great idea, but it's somewhat risky. What if Caspian revolts out of rage after we abduct his family and attacks us instead? Won't we be in danger, then?"

Jerry feared Caspian from the bottom of his heart.

Zane said anxiously, "Can we do nothing but sit here and wait for our demise?"

"We should wait for a while longer. Perhaps Caspian will change his mind and rush back here. We'll be in deep trouble otherwise," Jerry said. He could only tell his men to pester Caspian more.

"We'll be in danger if we wait any longer. Caspian has control over a massive army. If he grows suspicious and learns that we've started a rebellion, he'll surely lay his hands on our family first and foremost!" Kelvin was already panicking.

Jerry was at a loss on what to do, too. "No one would have thought that Caspian would be so bold as to disobey an order from the king himself."

Kelvin suggested, "What if we do this? We can contact Filren and think of a way to make Caspian lose the war before killing him, and our problems will be resolved!"

"How can we do so?" Jerry said, bemused.

"Caspian's soldiers need sustenance, don't they? We can cut their sustenance supply off, and his army will surely lose," Kelvin said.

Jerry was suddenly enlightened. "That's a great idea! Without supplies, Caspian will surely retreat as they will die if they advance. When he returns, we'll control the king and force him to order Caspian's execution!"

Kelvin said with a smile, "Yes! Caspian can't continue fighting for too long if he no longer has access to supplies."

"As expected of my eldest son," Jerry praised Kelvin. "You really have the most brilliant ideas!"

Zane felt indignant upon seeing that, so he voiced his opinion, saying, "I don't think this is a great idea, Dad."

"How so?" Jerry asked.

Zane explained, "Caspian is now the king's successor and holds great power. I don't think we have the means to sentence him."

"He's the Diatoranian God of War, but we can just control the king and have His Majesty order for his execution, can't we?" Jerry said in disdain.

Zane argued, "Caspian has done countless great deeds for this country, and the other War Gods treat him with the utmost respect.

"If the king suddenly cuts off supplies to Caspian's army, it will surely induce doubt. Besides, the four other Champions might notice that something's amiss.

"We cannot be certain that the Champions will carry out the king's orders, too. They respect Caspian greatly, and our plans will be thwarted if some of them assist Caspian in secret."

Jerry was feeling a bit conflicted after hearing Zane's words, and he struggled to decide.

Kelvin thought of another idea. "Didn't Caspian say that he wanted to talk to the king? We can control His Majesty and have him tell Caspian to retreat. Won't that be enough?

"Caspian won't doubt the king's words, and he'll have no choice but to retreat. As long as he returns to Dhord City, we can discharge him from the army and deal with him as we please!"

This was a decent idea, so Jerry said, "Let's do this. I'll call him with the king's phone and issue the order to him myself through His Majesty!"

In the capital of Filren, everyone was advising Caspian. Sylvia said, "This is the first time His Majesty has issued an order to you with the royal scepter. If you continue to resist it, you will probably face dire consequences!"
